“She flew in on a private plane and rented out an entire floor of the luxury Hotel Splendido for her staff and dancers,” an source told In Touch magazine. Designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana were there, as was Luz. And Luz and Madonna, mostly PDA-free until now, “were seen kissing during breakfast on their terrace,” according to the source.
How are Madonna’s kids coping? Photos showed Luz with his arm around the singer as the couple took kids Lourdes, David and Mercy on a boat trip along the Italian Riviera coastline on Aug. 17.
Sources say that Madonna is happy to have Luz around her kids “see Jesus as ‘Mommy’s friend.’”
Octuplets out-rate ‘Jon & Kate Plus 8’
Who says 14 kids aren’t better than eight? More people tuned in to watch two horrifying hours of mothering play out in “Octomom: The Incredible Unseen Footage” Aug. 20, than watched the Aug. 17 episode of “Jon & Kate Plus 8” on TLC.
The former had 4.2 million viewers, according to Fox, and “Jon & Kate” had 3 million. “Octomom” special notwithstanding, the “Jon & Kate” ratings are not good news, as they represent a half-a-million drop over the previous week (the show set a series record with 10.6 million viewers for the episode that announced their split).
Initially Fox said if that if ratings for the “Octomom” special were encouraging, they’d consider running more footage as a series in the fall. Brace yourselves.
Joe Jonas and Bon Jovi: Garden State bedfellows
If you’ve been wanting to have a conversation with Bon Jovi about “music, fame, longevity,” your odds increase if you’re from New Jersey. Or at least, if you’re Joe Jonas of the Jonas Brothers.
The two had a chat, chronicled in a special issue of Rolling Stone, where they discuss what it’s like to be a teen in New Jersey.
Jonas said, “We were the three brothers who would always show late for school, or leave early.”
Bon Jovi had a much different experience. “The good news about New Jersey in the late ’70s was that you only had to be 18 to drink. You’d scratch out a fake ID, you’d be 16 pretending to be 18.”
