Here are some photos of Madonna in Paris and Milan over the past few days. I think the dark-haired guy is her bodyguard? But he totally looks like boyfriend material. That’s her type, for the most part. Dark haired, dark-eyed, tall, young, fit men. He even gives me a vintage Carlos Leon vibe. Speaking of Carlos Leon, while Madonna has been promoting her album, she’s been chatting a lot about their daughter Lourdes. I sort of feel for Madonna in one respect: she’s going through some major empty nest drama now that Lourdes is in college. Madonna still has three younger children, but Lola was her girl, her first-born, and Madge misses her like crazy. Anyway, Madonna has been talking about mothering teenagers and what she says to them about drugs and clothes.

What Lola thinks of Madonna’s style: “If no one’s around [Lourdes] will definitely give me the once over and say, ‘Oh, mum, you are not leaving the house like that!’ She did take a picture of my butt sticking out and sent it back to me and said, ‘Mom, really?’ and I said it was a wardrobe malfunction. I swear. She left it at that.”

What she tells her kids about drugs & alcohol: “I just ask my daughter to make wise decisions and to do things in moderation and to try not to mix her alcohol. I am not going to say ‘no, don’t do it’ because that is just absurd. And it is not fair. Yeah, I did it. I am not a big fan of drugs. They just don’t suit me. The handful of times I have tried drugs, many many many many years ago, I just didn’t enjoy it. I wanted it out of me. I started guzzling bottles of water thinking that was going to end it.”

I don’t know, I think Madonna is giving her kids good advice? It’s the Absolutely Fabulous thing – the more wild the parent, the more straight-laced the kid. There’s nothing like your mom giving you permission to get drunk to make it no longer “cool.” I like the mom-advice of “don’t mix your alcohol.” Like the famous nursery rhyme, “Beer before liquor, never sicker.”

In these pics from Paris, I swear Madonna is trying to do the Johnny Depp-ratty-hat thing combined with the Pharrell Williams/Westwood hat trend.
