Hello, campers.  It’s Sarah today, but never fear — Abby will be back tomorrow.  So, Madonna and Guy Ritchie are still getting divorced.  I apologise in advance for the stultifying boredom of this garbage, but apparently this is newsworthy even though Madonna stopped being interesting in approximatenly 1993.  Anyhow, according to the Daily Mail:

Yesterday it was claimed that Guy had turned down a massive £20million settlement from Madonna and the pair are ‘no closer’ to reaching any agreement over their impending divorce.

The pair, whose split was made public two weeks ago, are feuding over where their children - Rocco, eight, and adopted David Banda, three - will live and be educated.

Madonna, 50, wants the two boys to live with her and Lourdes, her 12-year-old daughter from a previous relationship, in New York. But Ritchie, 40, would prefer that the children go to school in London.

The singer’s biographer, J Randy Taraborrelli, told Hello! magazine the pair ‘are at loggerheads’.

He said: ‘There was a great deal of haggling about this matter last week, with Madonna upping the amount of Guy’s settlement to more than £20 million in hopes that he would acquiesce.’

He added that they are ‘not even speaking to each other. They communicate only through lawyers’.

Mr Taraborrelli also said a friend of Ritchie told him that the split could become more acrimonious.

The source told him: ‘I do think it’s going to get nasty. He and Madonna are very angry now, no doubt about it, [but] they are willing to put that aside for their children.

‘But I do think that if one sees the other linked up with a new partner so soon, it will make everything a lot more complicated for everyone involved.’

It was also claimed today that the couple’s legal teams are seeking witness statements from business and house staff.

There’s a lot of other nonsense about marriage contracts and hours of Kabbalah reading and pre-scripted arguments, but I fell asleep at least twice while reading that piece so you’d probably be better off reading the link yourself if you’re that interested.  Also, consider ritual suicide.

Basically, here’s how I feel about this whole divorce thing:  Madonna’s a goddamn lunatic and always has been.  Guy Ritchie, who is a good deal younger than Her Veinyness, married her and became about 984% more famous as a result.  Then one day he woke up and realised, “Holy hell, I’m in bed with a centuries-old she-demon in a seaweed cellophane wrap, and when she wakes up she’s going to be a controlling harpy with a weightlifting problem, a fake accent, and delusions of grandeur.  This sucks.  I’m done.”  Neither of these jackasses gets any pity from me, and unless the forthcoming witness statements from their household staff uncover ridiculously hilarious tales of domestic insanity, I stopped caring about this within four seconds of hearing they were splitting up.

Mother of the Year Sharon Stone is denying claims that she wanted her 8-year-old son Roan to receive Botox treatments for his stinky feet. According to Us Weekly

“Sharon Stone never made this statement. It is a complete fabrication,” her attorney Martin Singer tells Entertainment Tonight. “Sharon loves her son Roan and only wants the best for him.”

Of course she wouldn’t make a statement like that. Please. She very clearly said she wanted botox injections for his anus. Because pooing is so smelly and unbecoming! With her steady diet of cocaine and martinis, she probably hasn’t taken a real dump in years. Unless you count “Basic Instict 2″ or “Catwoman.” I’m pretty sure you’d have to wipe after making those pieces of shit.

It was reported yesterday that actress Sharon Stone will not be regaining custody of her 8-year-old son Roan. Extra says

Roan will remain at [Sharon's ex-husband Phil] Bronstein’s home as his primary residence. Stone will have visitation one weekend a month and have Roan on Christmas Eve and Christmas Day.

But she’s the mom, right? Why wouldn’t she have primary custody? Let’s see… oh, right — because she’s fucking insane. TMZ reports

The judge [in her custody case] notes, “Mother appears to overreact to many medical issues involving Roan.” In one case, the judge describes Stone believing Roan had a spinal condition, but “there was no evidence to support this allegation.”

“Another example of an overreaction is that Mother suggested that Roan should have Botox injections in his feet to resolve a problem he had with foot odor. As Father appropriately noted, the simple and common sense approach of making sure Roan wore socks with his shoes and used foot deodorant corrected the odor problem without the need for any invasive procedure on this young child.”

Oh, come on. They’re not even being fair! There’s no mention of the other alternative treatments Sharon suggested for Roan anywhere in those stupid documents. It wasn’t just Botox, you know (even though that one is clearly the most obvious solution). There were several other perfectly logical remedies she considered. She even made a list. Luckily, I obtained it for you:

In a totally unexpected turn of events, Britney Spears has given up all attempts to regain custody of her children from ex-husband Kevin Federline. Popozao! Kevin’s attorney told OK! Magazine

“A final settlement in the Kevin Federline-Britney Spears custody case was signed. All parties have agreed to the following: Kevin will retain sole legal and physical custody of Sean Preston and Jayden James. Britney will continue to have visitation rights which may increase over time.”

You know how that old saying goes — ” If you love something, set it free. If it comes back to you, it’s yours. If it doesn’t, it’s because you dipped it in nacho cheese and tried to eat it again.”
