Madonna turns out in style as she exits CBS studios in New York City for her appearance on BETs 106th and Park, airing on May 2nd. Hilarity is likely to ensue as hosts Terrence and Rosci plan to do yoga poses and dance moves, before The Material Girl’s critical eye. Madonna’s new video, 4 minutes featuring Justin Timberlake and Timbaland, will also premiere. Ciccone’s look is uptown all the way: savvy, a little tough and, of course glamorous. Her thigh boots, exaggerated gold chains and fur coat beg for a cane and fedora.

Here In Your Arms

What marital problems? After a strongly worded denial , Madonna and Guy Ritchie arrived looking like the picture perfect couple at Harry’s in London. Madonna’s rep, Liz Rosenberg, has denied reports that the pop star’s marriage is on the rocks. “I am delighted to confirm that Mr. and Mrs. Guy Ritchie remain happily married,” her longtime publicist said. Rumors of a split surfaced after Ritchie attended neither of Madonna’s recent A-list outings including her induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame and her United Nations fundraiser. Rosenberg explained that, until recently, Madonna and Ritchie were living in separate countries while they completed projects. Would you like to see Madonna and Guy out and about more? Discuss!

Pant Off, Dance Off

New collaborators Justin Timberlake and Madonna cuddled up backstage at the 23rd Annual Rock and Roll Hall of Fame Induction Ceremony at the Waldorf Astoria in New York City. Madge finally got her dues as one of this year’s inductees but it was Timberlake’s speech that had the industry crowd gasping. In a speech full of sexual innuendo, Timberlake recalled feeling a bit sickly while in the studio with Big M. She offered him a B-12 shot from her purse, instructing him to “Drop ‘em,” referring to his pants. Timberlake did so and in trademark fashion the Material Girl responded, “Nice top shelf.” How do you feel about Justin’s caboose? Discuss!

Is It The Oscars Already?

When Madonna throws a party, don’t expect the D-list (though Kathy Griffin would have been welcome).

This was the lesson learned by the press in attendance at Madonna and Gucci’s “Night to Beneft ‘Raising Malawi’ and UNICEF,” a charity thrown by the pop goddess that fetched a plate-price of up to $10,000. The guest list was a bit ridiculous – uber-pregnant J-Lo with Marc Anthony at her side, TomKat – in full regalia with Katie looking like the royalty version of ‘Amelie’, Demi & Ashton, Gwyneth Paltrow, Drew Barrymore and that guy from the Apple commercials, Kate Hudson, Dita Von Teese, Donald Trump, etc. etc. Oh yeah, and her ‘entertainment’ for the evening consisted of Rihanna, Timbaland, and Alicia Keys. Madonna calls, they come ‘a runnin.

The event raised nearly $4 million. Madonna justifies my love once again. Check out the photos over at WireImage.

Playing supportive wife, Madonna escorted her husband writer/director Guy Ritchie to the screening of his film Revolver hosted by the Cinema Society and Piaget at the Tribeca Grand Screening Room in New York City. Taking a note for Posh and Becks, Mrs. Ritchie chose a black dress by Dolce & Gabbana, while the man-of-the-hour chose a dapper suit. What do you think of Madonna and Guy’s look?

In this handout provided by the Israeli Government Press Office, Madonna posed with Israeli President Shimon Peres in Jerusalem, Israel.  Madonna was in the holy land over the weekend for a conference on Kabala. While there, she declared herself an “ambassador for Judaism,” according to reports. Do you think Madonna will become more politically active a la Angelina Jolie?

La Isla Bonita is one of my favourite songs by Madonna but this was such a different rendition. I could sense she was enjoying it, so when she smiled and pulled this funny face for just a split second, I was lucky enough capture all of those elements in the frame. I have photographed her on stage about five times before and Live Earth was by far the best performance yet.
