Carlos Leon, with his daughter with Madonna, Lourdes, and a woman believed to be a family member, went into a rant threatening this photog and say how he hates all photogs, etc. “I’ll see you alone one day!” he threatened. He had just picked up Lourdes and was only photographed for about a minute before hailing a taxi.

Last time I posted pictures of Lourdes, ya’ll went off on the poor girl’s eyebrows.  I stand by my opinion that she’s a beautiful girl.  So there!

Madonna has met with high-powered British divorce attorney Fiona Shackleton, The Times of London reports.

(Shackleton represented Paul McCartney in his split from Heather Mills. He ended up paying Mills only $48.6 million of the $160 million sought by Mills.)

One lawyer told The Times that Madonna, 49, had met with Shackleton after approaching another firm. (Guy Ritchie, 39, had been rumored “to have had dealings with a lesser-known Mayfair law firm, Forsters,” according to The Times.)

When contacted by Usmagazine.com, her rep said: “No comment at this time, darling.”

It is believed that the couple (who wed in 2000) did not have a prenup, according to The Times. (Madonna is worth an estimated $600 million.)

Breakup rumors have rocked the couple for years.

In the May issue of U.K. Elle, Madonna denied martial strife.

“I had to marry a challenge because otherwise I would just get bored,” she said. “Whatever else Guy is, he’s never boring … We’re both there to help each other and challenge each other.”

She added that she dedicated the love song “Incredible” (on her latest disc Hard Candy) to him.

“Sex with Guy is incredible,” she confessed. “And surprise, surprise, it’s his favorite song on the album. Actually, maybe it’s not his favorite song, but it’s definitely his favorite line.”

They have two children together: Rocco Ritchie, 7, and David Banda, 21 months, whom they adopted in Malawi in 2006. The adoption was finalized last month.

Madonna has a daughter, Lourdes, 11, from a previous relationship with fitness instructor Carlos Leon.

Madonna’s husband Guy Ritchie is planning to take on a new business venture by creating his own whiskey.

The moviemaker is set on making the best and most expensive whiskey ever, rumoured to sell for up to six figures.

A source tells British newspaper The Sun, “He plans to stuff the current top prices with his brand. He reckons there are plenty of rich businessmen and rock stars who would pay six figures for the world’s best whiskey.”

Ritchie is a huge fan of 33 year-old malt – a vintage whiskey – but he believes he can create an even better beverage.

The source adds, “He wants his to be the ultimate, exclusive whiskey.”

If you believe the reports coming from tabloids across the pond earlier today, Madonna and Guy Ritchie have not only separated, but they’re both meeting with high-powered divorce attorneys to split up their sizable estate. One website even claimed that Madge had hired Nicholas Mostyn, who most recently represented Paul McCartney in his divorce from ex-wife Heather Mills.

However, it looks like all this rumor-spouting is just that, as a rep for the Material Girls tells OK! that Madonna and Guy’s 7-½ year marriage is still going strong.

“There is no truth to [reports of a divorce],” the rep for the singer tells OK!. “Madonna has not met with any lawyers nor are there any plans for a divorce.”

Madonna has vowed never to act again – because she would prefer to establish herself in Hollywood as a filmmaker.

The star has repeatedly tried her hand at acting since launching her singing career in the 1980s, playing lead roles in films such as Desperately Seeking Susan, Dick Tracy and Evita, for which she won a Best Actress Golden Globe in 1997.

But since directing the upcoming comedy Filth and Drama, the 49-year-old insists she has found her calling.

When asked if she still dreams of an acting career, she responds: “Absolutely not, because now I’ve tasted directing. It’s like Eve and the apple, I have to have a second bite. If you’re an actress, it’s not your vision. The director tells the story, you are the chess piece that is moved around. That doesn’t suit my personality.”

And the Holiday hitmaker is so fond of filmmaking, she insists she even prefers it to making music: “You have more time to tell a story. You have an hour and half or two to save the world.”

Madonna has scrapped plans for the U.K. premiere of her documentary I Am Because We Are to be held at an English music festival, after tickets for the event failed to sell.

The Holiday hitmaker was reportedly planning to screen her latest documentary, which focuses on the plight of Malawian children, at Britain’s Glastonbury festival later this month.

However, the event has struggled to shift tickets, with rapper Shawn ‘Jay-Z’ Carter’s headlining slot at the event being blamed for a decrease in demand, as the festival usually focuses on a rock-orientated line-up.

According to the Britain’s Mail On Sunday newspaper, the Queen of Pop wanted to follow the screening with a possible question and answer session with festivalgoers, but has been put off by the lack of interest in this year’s event.

A source tells the publication, “Madonna hoped the film could be shown on the Saturday and there was talk of a question and answer session. But poor ticket sales for the festival put her off. After talks with the organizers it was decided the festival was not the right venue to showcase the film.”
