This week, Madonna's brother, Christopher Ciccone, released his new book, "Life with My Sister Madonna." In typical "Queen" style, the openly gay Ciccone has sold out his sister for the almighty dollar, claiming he was tired of living in her shadow. Hello Christopher, that's because your sister is a multi-talented icon and your only talent is selling out your family and your soul for a buck. I must admit, a small part of me wonders if Madonna herself didn't have a hand in this whole situation, after all, she is a genius when it comes to creating a media frenzy. First her alleged affair with New York Yankee Alex Rodriguz, now this tell all book. She always gives us just enough to peek our curiosity, then she reels us in, just in time for her upcoming tour. No matter what the situation, my thoughts are these. It's not cool for friends or family to write books or sell each other out for money or a cheap shot at fame, period . I'm tired of these no talent hacks like Ciccone getting famous on the mare fact they happen to come from the same womb. Having recently made appearances on such shows as Hannity & Combs and Chelsea Lately, I'm a little disappointed that these otherwise opinionated hosts did nothing to tear this creep a new one (although he'd probably like that). Think what you want of Madonna, but no one can deny the facts, she is a national treasure. I don't care about her personality or whether she's a bitch or not, all I know is she has been a staple in the gay community for 3 decades now and she is a genuine talent. No visit to any gay club in the country would have been complete without a Madonna tune playing in the background. She has provided the sound track to a generation of gays & lesbians and I for one will not buy the book and plead that others in the community do the same. Madonna, you're 50 & still fabulous....thanks for the memories!
