This afternoon, at 12 noon Los Angeles time, Madonna gave birth to a son, called “Rocco Ritchie”, three weeks premature. No details regarding weight and length were released.
I am so happy! This is mundane and pointless, but I was so happy I had to share it or explode, so this would be the perfect forum to post it in.
::waits for the cruel volleys to begin::
I’ve got nothing against Madonna, so there’ll be no cruel volleys from me. I respect her as a person (based on what I know about her) and admire her longevity and versatility as an artist.
Congrats to the 2-time mama! And to Papa and Half-Sis, too!
You are so kind, Audrey. 
warm wishes
Maybe if she wasn’t so loose the thing would’ve stayed up in there longer.
That was awful. I’m an evil, evil man and I’m going to Hell. Sorry.
Film at 11.
THWAP There! I just smacked you with the Magic Trout. The Magic Trout is both punitive and a salvation. You won’t go to Hell, but you’ll have a stinky fish smell on you for about 24 hours.

I’m so sorry to misquote or take your post out of context, Audrey, but the synchronicity of this cracked me up.
The fleeting nature of fame, Madonna’s glorified skankiness, fish smell lasting 24 hours…
Anyone know of a “mind wash”, w/ high-power water jets, waving scrubber things and hold the hot wax?
Hopelessly tacky,
Veb
That’s okay. I kinda knew that the “stinky fish smell” thing would get noticed.
Poor friedo! Or maybe lucky friedo, depending on how you look at it.
I’ve always found the piercing odor of rotting trout strangely erotic.
Oh Mrs. Friedooooooo…oh, wait, there is no Mrs. Friedo. Oh, Madonnaaaaaaaaaaaaa…
Rocco Richie? Does she hate the kid or what? Oh my god! I respect Madonna she is such a self promoter and I totally respect that. But why did she give her kid such a freaky name? Did she not think of all the ways that her kid could be mad of with that name? … Hey, Rocco? Sucked a Cock O?
All right that is gross but can you imagine how sucky that name would be?
THWAP! THWAP! THWAP! THWAP!
THWAP! THWAP! THWAP! THWAP!
Shall I continue?
I myself think Rocco is a fine name… for a raccoon.
Hmmm.
Rocco and Lola. Most unfortunate.
Also unfortunate: I chuckled at friedo’s post. HEY! Keep that trout away from me, spitwads! You can’t say it didn’t secretly amuse you, too!
(still silently chuckling)
That isn’t very funny when you consider that Madonna delivered early because she was admitted to hospital with haemorraging.
Does anyone else have “at the Copa - Copacabana - the hottest spot north of Havana” running through their head right now?
I am also reminded of Rocco Lampone, murderous thug from The Godfather - but if Madonna likes it, to each her own.
Could be worse…look at Frank Zappa’s kids: Moon Unit, Dweezil, Ahmet Emuukha Rhodan and Diva…
:end hijack
There is a small chance (please God) that Rocco is not the actual name of the child and that Madonna and Guy have just not decided on a name yet.
“Rocco” is what Lourdes called the baby when it was still in the womb, so they may have just picked up the habit of calling him that as a nickname.
Has anyone seen the video for “Music” where she is spoofing all the ganstas? Is that her hubby (Guy Ritchie) playing the cab driver? I saw him in Lock, Stock and Two smoking barrels and it does looks like him. Any thoughts. I’m gonna admit that I like Madonna, she only gets so much shit cause she is unapologetic about her behavior.
Is THAT what she’s doing?!?! I was sooooo not getting it.
The limo driver is played by Ali G, a popular comedian in Britain who is constantly spoofing Gangsta rappers (yes, that is the point of the video!). Not Guy Ritchie.
i had a class mate in high school named rocco, from a rather italian family. yes, his nickname was rocky. terrible thing when those movies came out. madonna must not have read beyond jennifer and jason. i hope all is okay with mom and son.
