Seems that Madonna and Guy Ritchie are having marital problems, according to rumors around the gossip world today. He never shows up to any of her special little events, and she’s just not as eager as she used to be about the whole monogamy thing. That last part I made up, but anyway - they just don’t really love each other anymore, blah blah blah, and we should be hearing more about this soon. Frankly I’m surprised that they lasted this long - I never could see what she saw in him.

Yesterday Madonna was inducted into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame; here’s what she said:

Madonna recalled key moments of her career, from playing her demo tape for record company president Seymour Stein when he was in a hospital bed hooked up to an IV, to her shock at looking out from the stage at thousands of girls dressed like her. “It freaked me out,” she said.

She fondly remembered a teacher who encouraged her to follow her dreams when she was only 14, and said she’s lucky to have people around her that are still doing that.

Even the people who “said I was talentless, that I was chubby, that I couldn’t sing, that I was a one-hit wonder, they helped me, too,” she said. “They inspired me because they made me question myself repeatedly and pushed me to be better.”

Singer Justin Timberlake, who helped produce Madonna’s upcoming album, inducted her with an innuendo-laden speech.

“The world is full of Madonna wannabes. I might have even dated a couple,” said Britney Spears’ ex. “But there is truly only one Madonna.”
