Umm, yeah. Well, Madonna didn’t take the divorce rumors lightly. Media reports went nuts saying Madonna and hubby Guy Ritchie were headed for splitsville. After his mummy weighed in on the controversy, Madonna’s peeps decided to speak up.

Her spokesperson, Liz Rosenberg, told People that, “Madonna’s husband Guy arrived in New York last night to be with his wife and family, not in a last ditch effort to save his marriage which does not need saving. There are no plans for Madonna and Guy to divorce.”

She also said the rumors of Madonna’s alleged affair with Yankees star Alex Rodriguez are false. She says, “Madonna and Alex have the same manager, Guy Oseary. They have met. They know each other and Madonna took her kids to a Yankees game last week. There’s not really anything to comment on beyond that.”

Kelly Rowland says Madonna is allowed to be a diva.

The former Destiny’s Child singer insists the pop superstar, known for her outrageous demands, should be able to ask for whatever she wants because ’she’s freakin’ Madonna’.

Kelly said: ‘Madonna can have anything she wants. If she only wants red Skittles then get her red Skittles, she’s freakin’ Madonna! And if she wants a huge trailer, get her a huge trailer.’

Madonna reportedly enraged fellow artists and organisers at Radio 1’s Big Weekend in Maidstone, Kent, on Saturday, by insisting on having special Kabbalah water backstage and requesting a private helicopter to take her to the event.

The 49-year-old singer’s 70-strong entourage are also said to have demolished the free food and alcohol provided for the other artists performing, which included Kelly, The Kooks and Nelly.

Madonna is set to be in Malawi next week for what may be the final court ruling on whether or not she can finalize the adoption of her son David Banda. The Queen of Pop began the adoption process back in 2006 after meeting David in a local orphanage in Malawi. In February of this year, the Malawian Information Minister Patricia Kaliati, praised Madonna’s efforts to raise awareness of gathering support for orphans. She went on to say that it would be wrong if Madonna gets denied of the adoption. Madonna will be flying in to Malawi on Tuesday as reported by a senior official at Lilongwe International Airport.

Guy Ritchie’s dad has insisted his son’s marriage to Madonna is not in trouble — and they have no plans to split.

John Ritchie, 78, spoke out after constant rumours the Queen of Pop was set to move back to America, leaving Lock Stock director husband Guy behind in Britain.

Last week the pair were seen together for the first time in weeks.

But John said: “They’re happy. I was shocked when I read they were supposed to be having problems. They’ve been running around different places. That’s why they haven’t been seen together.”

Madonna, 49, has been publicising new album Hard Candy and Guy, 39, has been working on a new film. They have been wed seven years, have three children and own homes in London and Wiltshire.

John added: “She won’t be going out to America to live for good. They’ve got lovely places here.”

Madonna has vehemently denied reports her marriage to Guy Ritchie is on the rocks.

The 49-year-old pop star’s representative issued a statement insisting the couple, who have been married for seven years, couldn’t be happier following various reports they live separate lives and are on the verge of splitting.

Liz Rosenberg, Madonna’s US spokeswoman, said: “I am delighted to confirm that Mr. and Mrs. Guy Ritchie remain happily married. Though they were in different countries recently - Madonna in the US promoting her upcoming album ‘Hard Candy’ and Guy finishing up post-production on his new film ‘RocknRolla’ as well as completing a Nike commercial and working on several scripts in England - the family are joyfully back together at home in London. All is well and wonderful in the Ritchie household.”

Rumours suggesting the couple’s union is in trouble have been rife for several months. They have not been pictured together since January 8, when on a trip to India. Speculation intensified when Guy, 39, was noticeably absent from Madonna’s induction into the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame in New York.

According to reports, the couple - who have a seven-year-old son Rocco, an adopted son David, two, and an 11-year-old daughter Lourdes from Madonna’s previous relationship - have been living like “brother and sister” rather than husband and wife and have even divided their London home into two separate living quarters.

A source said: “The marriage is hanging by a thread. No one doubts they adore their three kids - but the children seem to be the only reason they are living this strange loveless existence.”

It was also suggested Madonna was intending to move back to the US with the children, while Guy would remain in the UK.

Reuters’ had a celebrity do-gooder poll for 2007 which saw Angelina Jolie win for both her work as a UN goodwill ambassador and raising awareness of suffering in Africa. On the bottom of the list is the Queen of Pop Madonna. She was voted the least respected celebrity altruist because of claims she used her fame and wealth to circumvent Malawian adoption rules.

Director of the Feinstein International Famine Center at Tufts University explains this saying “People aren’t stupid. They can really sense when it’s just an endorsement and when somebody really means it. Someone like Angelina Jolie comes across as having more integrity than some celebrities and a greater sense that she doesn’t just do this for the publicity.”

Actor Sean Penn insists that he hardly knew his ex-wife Madonna when he was married to her. He claims that he cannot remember having “a single conversation” with her. Ouch! He says, “She was a phenomenon, but nothing could have told anybody what would happen next. I describe that marriage as loud. That’s how I remember it. He was too busy smashing paps in the face and causing chaos with drunken rages that’s why he can’t remember. Madonna stuck it out for nearly five years and couldn’t deal with his temper anymore. Mr. Penn also did not like being referred to as “Mr. Madonna” or “that guy Madonna’s married to.” I remember that all too well and have just aged myself by mentioning it. Madonna once called Penn the love of her life. Too bad he doesn’t remember much! Penn and Madonna got married in 1985 at the peak of her career and divorced in 89.
