Madonna had better clean up her business before she starts cleaning up the world. The Material Mom is the headliner at tomorrow night's Live Earth show from London's Wembley Stadium. But guess what? For her, the word green means money, not the environment.
Madonna, who seems to be on top of all her many business endeavors, has actually invested about $2.7 million dollars in companies that are creating the destruction that Live Earth is trying to raise awareness about. She has invested in several companies named as the biggest corporate polluters in the world.
It's a cruel irony that Madonna's Ray of Light Foundation owns blocks of shares in companies that folks like Al Gore and Leonardo DiCaprio would like to see punished and rehabilitated for their attitudes toward global warming, climate control and basic pollution.

Madge, 48, is headlining Saturday’s Wembley Stadium concert.An insider revealed: "She has asked for 12 dozen boxes of strawberries, eight full-length mirrors, a skipping rope, Yorkshire Tea, organic green tea, and vanilla room spray."It’s all quite amusing – but if this is just for rehearsals we can’t wait to see what happens on the big day."

Madonna has spent more than £6 million buying her sixth London property. Her and husband Guy Ritchie signed a contract on the 10-bedroom Georgian townhouse in London's Marylebone. It adjoins the eight-bedroom property the couple live in with children Lourdes, 10, and Rocco, six.

The house has six floors and includes a vaulted artist's studio which adjoins the garden wall of the family's main home. The house has oak floorboards and many original features. It is not known whether the family intend to connect their acquisition to their existing home or rent it out.


They also own two nearby mews houses, which are occupied by staff, and two other houses in central London. A source said: "Madonna has been a very shrewd investor in property - this is her fourth in the area. She knows the prices are significantly lower than in Mayfair but that the area is coming up. She has said she'd like to buy the whole street.

"She was really keen to get her hands on this house because she knows once Paul Davies starts developing properties an area can skyrocket in price. She was calling him for eight months and her initial offers were rejected, but after a series of meetings he agreed to sell."

A raunchy tryst between John F. Kennedy Jr. and pop superstar Madonna was cut short when the pair failed to find a condom, a pal of the late socialite confides. The pair allegedly arranged a secret rendezvous at a low budget hotel in Chicago in the summer of 1988.
However, the sexy date was cut short because neither star had considered using protection. Kennedy's pal Rob Littell reveals in new biography American Legacy, "They were working their way around the bases, and as they rounded third and headed for home, she asked him if he had any protection. He didn't, so now they began discussing how they were going to get a hold of a prophylactic. She was still legally married to Sean Penn, and he had a steady girlfriend... They were afraid of being busted. They couldn't very well just meander into a pharmacy and ask for a pack of Trojans. They were too well known.
"To John's great chagrin, the relationship was never completed."

Madonna's marriage to Guy Ritchie is reportedly on the rocks, after Guy was spotted dancing intimately with a mystery brunette at a London club.

Madonna was allegedly furious at her husband for not accompanying her on the trip to Africa, and the couple are said to have had "screaming" rows over the phone earlier this week. And Ritchie's behaviour in trendy London nightclub Mahiki last night can't have helped the situation.

An eyewitness tells, "Guy went all out to let his hair down. He came with a group of blokes who were all up for having a big night. Guy seemed a bit solemn at first. He seemed determined to drown his sorrows as the drinks flowed. Then he hit the dance floor and spotted a leggy brunette. They seemed to just click together. When they got talking they began dancing closely. They didn't leave together but got very close on the dance floor."

The father of Madonna's adopted son David Banda is disappointed he hears so little of the baby she brought from Malawi to the UK six months ago. Yohane Banda, who claims he still has no regrets about giving up his child, has begged Madonna to give him regular updates of his son's progress abroad.

Speaking ahead of Madonna's planned charity visit to the African country this week, Banda claims he isn't even sure she'll visit He says, "Officially I haven't heard anything. There has been no communication whatsoever but I have heard the rumors and I get the feeling that she might be coming. I am excited. I hope that there will be an opportunity for me to see my son. I understand that she is a busy person, but if there is an opportunity, I would appreciate it if she could tell me how my son is doing, which has not been the case so far."
