Madonna's UNICEF Benefit Brings Out the Power Players

Madonna stepped onto the red carpet last night for her UNICEF event, the one that caused all the controversy regarding its connection to Kabbalah. Lourdes escorted her mother through the press line looking very much like a mini-me of her mother. One thing I have to say about Madonna is that I feel like she always dresses Lourdes in very age-appropriate stuff--nothing too trendy, even if is still ridiculously expensive.

Tom Cruise and wifey Katie Holmes turned up to the star-studded event and I like Katie's dress, up until the part where it became a cape. Crazy Jennifer Lopez was there pregnant as hell and I swear, she's going to be giving birth on the red carpet, she's on it so damn much. GO HOME, CRAZY! You're pregnant with TWINS for God's sake! And why do you have your boobs cinched with a belt? Is that part of "keeping it real"?

Madonna's buddy, Gwyneth Paltrow was there, showing off her fantastic gams in a dress that looks like a baby's party dress, but whatever, her legs look fabulous. Drew Barrymore and boyfriend, Justin Long, were there and no matter who he was dating before, old boy definitely traded up because there is no way he would be at this event if it weren't for Drew--"Die Hard" or not.

I can't tell from the photos, did that poor little hairy girl have her mustache waxed yet or not?

Her brows look a bit better than the last time she was photographed. I am hopeful that her upper lip does too.

not ONE celebrity I can name from these people pictured or named right here is a POWER PLAYER.
Miracelous, but it's a FACT.
Nobody excels from their "neighbours"!!
There were two people on this planet who were able to do things nobody could:
- ELVIS PRESLEY
and
- MICHAEL JACKSON

None of you assholes saw it!!
And now you're thinking you are POWER-PLAYERS?
A couple of GODDAMN POWER-SUCKERS, that's what you all are!!!!

With regard to the previous comment: huh?
Anyway, is it Katie Holmes contract that she can only smile with teeth at her own movie premieres and publicity appearances? B/c the last few events she's been at, she looks like something crawled up her butt and died.

Yikes, I hate to be down on a kid... but those eyebrows. Wow.

February 7, 2008 12:35 PM

Madonna's daughter loves the camera already. She is very pretty, lovely eyes. The eyebrows and low hair line can be dealt with easily later on.

February 7, 2008 12:41 PM

lourdes is beautiful...wow.

but, uh, woah. madonna really really looks old. and kinda beat up round the edges. yikes.

I think Madge and child look great, actually.

madonna' face lift looks great!

February 7, 2008 2:58 PM

i cannot believe how much they look alike. she really took on her mothers genes. my word!

February 7, 2008 4:01 PM

Everyone on her that has lame comments to say about a little girl (who happens to be 11 years old, and should not even be considering or actually removing any hair from her body) are f'n idiots. You are all probably mothers who are the "me and my daughter are best friends" types. Idiots! How about your wax your hairy asses and keep your immature ignorant mouths shut. Get life a life, losers! By the way, I would love to see a picture of your daughters. Ha!

What the hell if Gwyneth Paltrow wearing?

February 7, 2008 4:05 PM

Grown women who talk shit about little girls who are too young to be removing hair from their bodies, and actually should not be, are immature ignorant twits. I would hate to be your daughters.

You know who you are on here. Snap out of it!

joan, while I agree with you on the mom-being-friends-with-the-kid thing...

...other kids can be cruel. I think Lourdes is a beautiful girl, but she DID have an abundance of hair on her upper lip. More than you'd see on the average 11 year old. To simply avoid the potentially life-scarring verbal abuse she might get about her "mustache", I have to agree on hair removal. As long as Lourdes HERSELF wanted it, not because Madonna wanted it FOR her.

blah blah lourdes is uglyyyyyy and she has the same paris hilton pose and smile future ho yeah her mom was a ho too.

February 7, 2008 5:50 PM

Oh please, her own mother is whoring her in public for the sake of publicity and we're not allowed to notice and comment? It's actually very simple. If you don't want your kid observed, you leave her at home with the nanny. (Those of you with IQs under 90 probably still don't understand this basic concept.)

Your Mom: So because you take your kid to a party it gives ignorant people the right to rag on her?!
You must be stupid or something.

February 7, 2008 6:39 PM


Perhaps I should type more slowly so the mentally lame can keep up?

Let's try again, shall we?

Taking your kid to a party is one thing.

VOLUNTARILY whoring her and posing her in front of a LARGE crowd of photographers just because her mommy has a life-long, desperate need for attention is another thing altogether.

I also don't believe that children belong at adult functions but that's a different story.

Please, she's accompanying her mother to a charity event, how bad can it be? I certainly haven't seen Lourdes on too many red carpets before. And anyway, it's not the "whoring out" that is the issue here, it's the fact that it's completely disgusting to rag on KIDS! Let the girl be a kid for as long as she can. I'm sure she'll learn all about waxing in the future when she becomes painfully aware of the sick and twisted idea of beauty that this world has.

February 7, 2008 8:03 PM

Any picture of anyone, adult or child, that is posted on a gossip site is open to being ragged on. If you have a problem with it I suggest you:

A) Complain to the site that posted it
B) Don't go to such sites
C) STFU and get over it.

February 7, 2008 8:36 PM

"Let the girl be a kid for as long as she can."

Goodness gracious, you're a complete moron, aren't you? Let me guess, home schooled by halfwits?

A "kid" should be HOME at night, not out partying with adults at an adult function. That's exactly the POINT!

Once her OWN MOTHER starts FLAUNTING her in front of the CAMERAS, she's fair game.

February 8, 2008 12:29 AM

Your Mom - You're obviously a dolt. A complete mental midget.

February 8, 2008 12:34 AM

Georgie - you are a moron as well. You and Your Mom should get together and try to figure out a way to injure the little girl who beat both of your daughters out of a spot on the cheerleading team. Weirdos!
