To be fair, when I was Lourdes‘ age (15, ugh), I thought my mom was so lame, too, mostly because she kept trying to borrow my clothes and because I hated her stupid boyfriend. Time has passed though, and her stupid boyfriend became my awesome stepfather, and while she still tries to borrow my clothes, at least now she’ll let me borrow her jewelry. The point is, even though I thought my mom was the absolute lamest back then, I realize now that she was actually always incredibly wonderful. Probably because she is not Madonna.
Poor Lourdes. I don’t think she’ll ever grow out of the “oh my gosh, mom, you are so embarrassing me” stage, but really, I don’t think she should. Her mom is Madonna. Madonna is that poor girl’s mother. Can you imagine what that must be like to deal with? Put aside all the daydreams about financial security and world travel and all that, and just think about Madonna trying to parent you. It’s enough to make you cringe, isn’t it?
So now that most of us are pretty firmly on Lourdes’ side, let’s talk about this latest reason why she thinks her mom is embarrassing, all right?
From the National Enquirer via Celebitchy:
Madonna’s embarrassed teen daughter Lourdes keeps telling her mom: Knock off your infamous feud with Lady Gaga – it makes you look like a jealous old fool!
“Loudes is 15; a lot closer to Lady Gaga’s age than her mom is… and like most every girl her age, she absolutely adores Gaga,” said a family friend. “It embarrasses her hugely that her mother constantly picks on Gaga. Lourdes, who’s wise beyond her years, knows Madonna’s doing herself more harm than good – and that she’d be better off locking arms than horns with her rival.”
But Madonna’s turning a deaf ear.
“She’s jealous of Gaga’s success since her own latest album didn’t do so well,” said another friend. “And it doesn’t help that many pals have commented that her daughter bears a striking resemblance to Lady Gaga – a comparison Lourdes loves, and her mom hates!”
That Lourdes is wise beyond her years, isn’t she? I really hope this story is true, but I especially hope that Lourdes actually called her mom a “jealous old fool.” That would be the cherry on top of this hilarious sundae.
Love the last paragraph in your article, Emily. I hope so too. =)
Lourdes is WAY prettier than Gaga.
The story sounds like bull.
I really don’t know where you’ve got your presumptuous information from but is laughably so wrong! Madonna and Lola are incredibly close. Lola is not overly embarrassed by her mother. However on occasions she will laughingly tease her mum. Madonna is an excellent parent who spends more time individually with her kids than many! Madonna is no way jealous of Gaga she is merely bemused by Gaga’s constant filching and copying. Madonna kept a dignified silence for a long time but Gaga’s lies over the ’emails of support’ she supposedly received from Madonna’s camp were the final straw! Hence her decision to showcase the Express Yourself/Born This Way similarity in her new tour. Madonna does not have to swallow all this Gaga copying just because her daughter likes some of Gaga’s stuff. Lola has great respect for Madonna although like any teen who is finding herself she will fight her corner. These are the true facts whether you choose to accept them or not! Yes they are from a totally reliable source!!!
Darolo , you said it so brilliantly!!
lola love’s her mom and they r realy close.and all of this is bull I don’t think Madonna is lame and I am younger than lola I am 13 and I think Madonna is the coolest celeberty out there lady gaga is so fake she copys madonnas hard work I agree with Madonna lady gaga is reductive.i am on madonnas side and lady gaga can roll over in a grave and go wright her own music!
oh and who ever came up with this fake story needs too go find a true story instead of trying too get attention off of lies.
