Page Six has a new blurb claiming that relations between Madonna and ex-husband Guy Ritchie are still quite frosty, despite them occasionally spending time together for the sake of their kids. In fact, they claim that Guy refers to Madonna as an “it” – something few of us could argue with, given the state of her gristle.
MADONNA’S ex-husband, Guy Ritchie, reportedly has been dissing the Material Girl (above) behind her back by referring to her as “It.” London’s Sun newspaper quoted a source: “Guy will say, ‘Oh, It’s in a bad mood today.’ ” The British director adopted the nasty nickname even before the couple officially split. “Even towards the end of their marriage, he would call her It. He told people, ‘We can’t make It angry.’ There is absolutely no love lost between them,” the source told the paper. MADONNA’s rep, Liz Rosenberg, shot back to Page Six: “It hasn’t been in a bad mood since the divorce was finalized.

I have to give props to Liz Rosenberg. That was an awesome response. Much, much better than the usual, “We don’t comment on our client’s private lives.” To be fair, there are a lot of worse things to call someone than an “it.” I still refer to a wretched ex-girlfriend of my father’s as “that creature.” It’s genderless (as she indeed appeared to be), but much more insulting than “it.” But I’ve also said she has a soul of pure tar, and even Guy Ritchie hasn’t sunk that low. Speaks poorly of me, I suppose. Whoops.
It isn’t the nicest thing to say about the mother of your children, but people have said much worse about Madge. People that weren’t married to her. People that didn’t have to have sex with her. Really, everything considered, I think Guy was being pretty restrained. Considering all the muscles he’s seen… all the ripping of phonebooks and the crushing of watermelons between Madonna’s legs… the post-traumatic stress must be unbearable. I think we have to give him a good deal of latitude in regards to things things.
Here’s Madonna, Jesus, and the family at the Kabbalah Centre in New York City on Friday. Images thanks to WENN.com.
that’s a nice way to refer to the mother of your child…
Hilarious Jaybird, hilarious! 🙂
Irresponsible. Celebrity children eventually learn to read and, yes, they will eventually go on this thing called the world wide web and find out what their feuding parents said about each other.
Well, I guess Madonna’s children will somehow learn that – still I don’t know if that will torment them more than all what their mother did to stay in the spotlight. Specially pictures of her…
What’s even worse is they will go on the world-wide web and find out Mummy’s been bonking a 22 year old…yech…poor Lourdes.
Haha i went around calling one of my brothers It for a week & a half cause he made me so upset so all week he would be like “Kelly Kelly? KELLY” lol i always ignored him & told my parents to tell It i wasnt talking to him
I could think of a few other names he COULD call her, so in all reality… “it” isn’t too bad.
I wouldn’t worry about her kids. Something tells me they’ve seen/heard much worse.
LOVE Liz Rosenberg’s response!! Nearly makes me warm to Madge. Nearly! 😛
Yeah, hearing Guy call her “It” is not going to the worst those kids will hear. Methinks Madge will continue her desperate attempt to remain relevant/in the spotlight, so these kids have YEARS of cringe-inducing behavior ahead of them
I feel horrible for her kids. Madonna is looking so desperate, it’s starting to become disgusting.
Well, Jaybird, I don’t know where to begin. Guy is wrong and so are you. “It” speaks volumes on the contempt he feels for her. Nasty, bitchy, cold, and I suppose, very English. But I guess that contempt doesn’t extend to the 92 million worth of assets she rendered to him in the divorce. Also, I’m tired of hearing of him as the victim in the divorce. He needs to man up (I never thought I’d use that phrase) and take some responsibility in the failure of his marriage. And yeah, Guy, move on. Focus on your kids and that less than stellar career of yours. And a note to Jaybird: maybe you have too much invested in your negativity toward your dad’s girlfriends.
Funny post. Loved Liz Rosenberg’s comment. Might as well embrace it, LOL.
Surprised no one else has commented, but how bored is Jesus looking in these pix? And he has lost his tan. I wonder how long it will be before he heads back to Brazil and Madge is but a memory…
j.ferber, excellently put (though I don’t know about jaybird’s negativity ;-). Liz Rosenberg’s response is ace.
He calls her IT
and she calls him ‘that” GUY
I luv that phrase ” Man UP’
hey he married her… who knew Madonna for all her sticking out her tongue at society gets married..twice. anyway he married her.. after the baby was born gotta do those paternity test , ya know
Guy aint dumb he must be so relieved he does not have to go to those kalbaba services anymore.
What a surprise! I call her “it” too!
Well, damn, Jaybird. I found nothing wrong with your story. “It’s” MADONNA. She climbs on crucifixes and writhes around naked. Her geriatric tour is called Sticky & Sweet which is nauseating in the context of it’s MADONNA. Her new b/f is 22 years old. Alex Rodriguez. I don’t see how Guy kept from stabbing her, but that’s just me.
I wonder if Guy Richie calles Madonna “It” because face looks like “woman” but her body and arms look like a “man”. So it’s neither “he” or “she”, then it must be an “It”. I don’t find anything nengative with what Jaybird said. There are worst things that Madonna has done to traumatize her kids like her video depicting that she’s “f**king someone, calling Guy an emotional retard on stage, giving the two finger salute to the audience when referring to Guy, etc. So guy calling her “It’ is nothing compared to what Madonna has done to her. I don’t condone Guy for what he calls Madonna, but in my opinion, Madonna deserves the name. Will it traumatize the kids? I don’t think so. They’re probably used to these name callings.
He last album is amazing. Her personal life….she should have stuck with a-rod. The 22 year old thing is backfiring.
sociopaths call human beings, “it”
I’m thinking that shoe fits this particular “it” user
Sunnyjyl:
While we don’t know what happened between the two of them for Guy to call Madonna “it,” there are honestly some times that calling a person “it” is COMPLETELY justified.
There was a girl in my high school that was well known for creating lies to get attention. She claimed that a very popular band teacher sexually assaulted her. He got arrested for it. While he was acquitted, he was disgraced from the school community and had to move elsewhere. The teacher didn’t deserve it. He was a very kind, slightly odd, energetic, and very inspirational teacher. He was doing WONDERS with the Marching Band, and was getting people very excited about music. And this self-centered attention whore had to ruin it. She’s had a history of claiming she was sexually harassed before , but this was the first one that was taken seriously. And ALL of her past accusations have been false.
Needless to say, everyone in the band rightly ostracized her. We called her “it.” She deserves it for humiliating the life of a great human being.
“sociopaths call human beings ‘it'”
LOL!!
You got to be kidding. Between the two of them, Guy or Madonna, I have no problem identifying which one comes closest to being a sociopath, and “it” is not Guy Ritchie.
It has earned the title.
very uninteresting gossip! we know why they divorced!they hated each other
As Ritchie’s father said, being married to “It” was living hell for his son, so Guy might as well make light of It. That can be a healthy way to deal with the situation.
Who says divorced partners can’t show a little hostility once in a while? It’s harmless enough to give them a nickname. I don’t know about the trend for celebs to try to pretend they have great relations with their exes. After all, something pretty bad happened, otherwise they wouldn’t be divorcing.
I also don’t get why Guy is supposed to be pitied because of Madonna’s muscles. Unless she used those muscles to beat the shit out of him, as so many male celebrities do to their mates (Josh Brolin, Sean Penn, Mickey Rourke and Terrence Howard are only the Oscar-nominated examples)then her body is her business and he has no right to complain about it. I never thought I’d be one to defend Madonna, but I think a lot of Madonna-bashing is sexist in nature. But as Gloria Steinem once said, all a woman has to do to be called a bitch is to put you on hold. Men can do a lot more and be hated a lot less. And as for her penchant for younger men, I have to admire her for that. If I were single and could pull it off, I’d go for the hot young guys, too (if only I had her courage).
Hell, I’ve called her worse than that and I’ve never even met her. Thank goodness.
She was his cash cow, so he calls her “IT”.
That’s all she was for him- a way to promote his career and to become rich.
He took her money- money that she earned and now he is dissing her.
Perhaps he should form a club with Jude Law and Hugh Grant that will be titled- British Men who Treat Women like Crap.
I call her schman or shemale. It depends on her outfit that day.
There is a time I wanted them to split badly, now I don’t care. That is what happens with celebs, they only split when it will no longer make your day.
Great way to treat the mother of your kids – especially knowing they will definitely find out.
By the way calling your wife “it” while still married is a good reason for divorce.
Had anyone ever really heard of Guy before hsi involovement with Madoona. Yes he is famous now – but how much of that is due to the people and connections he made through her?
But more importantly you don’t talk about the mother of your kids like that – this from a woman seperated so her spouse could screw around – I still say nothing but positive things to my kids about him.
Boomchakab: “I don’t see how Guy kept from stabbing her.” Nice sentiment. Is it from the OJ Simpson school of thought on male/female relationships? So nice to find see a female proponent of his doctrine.
maybe i have the maturity of a 12 year old but i laughed when i read that guy said, “IT is in a bad mood today”…and i’m sure that her kids have heard her called much worse.
With all the things he COULD call her, kudos for him for making it (lol) short and sweet! And so fitting….! Loves it!
Caryn, I admire your integrity and courage in a difficult marital situation. Taking the high road is not always easy. Be good to yourself, too. You deserve it.
what fools these mortals be.
they once “loved” each other.
hee hee.
