Madonna Making A Movie About British Royals... Maybe?
Cinema Blend News — Madonna Making A Movie About British Royals... Maybe? This piece in London's Daily Mail about Madonna planning an upcoming directorial project is so British, full of so much slang and insider references to royalty, that I pretty much don't even know how to read it.

Of course, being that this is a story reported in a British tabloid, there's no telling how likely this film ...

Madonna Takes Another Stab at Directing

According to the hilarious Baz Bamigboye in the Daily Mail (Baz, I’m laughing at you, not with you) Madonna will direct the film herself. Great. Best bit of Baz’s chucklesome story? That “a couple of agents who represent distinguished thespians sought reassurances that Madonna was not going to act in the picture as well”. ...
