File this one under “Things You Only Read about in Fairy Tales with Poison Apples:” Madonna is reportedly jealous of her 12-year old daughter Lourdes’ beauty. According to OK! Magazine

“Madonna can’t stand that Lourdes is growing into a beautiful teen,” a source [says] of the 50-year-old singer. “She seems envious of her youth and looks. She knows Lourdes is going to be gorgeous and will get the attention. It’s disturbing.”

Not surprisingly, the superstar is desperately trying to keep her daughter in a permanent state of girlhood. Last year, the beauty team on Madonna’s Sticky & Sweet Tour had strict orders not to touch Lourdes’s bushy eyebrows. “[And] Madonna refused to let Lourdes have a hairdresser. She probably didn’t want her daughter to look better than her,” [adds] the source.

Mmm, yeah, that seems about right. All that’s left now is for Lourdes to prick her finger on a spinning wheel’s spindle before the sun sets on her sixteenth birthday and Madonna can finally turn into the evil fire-breathing dragon she really is. From the looks of her face in that picture, I’d say she’s already halfway there.
