Guy Ritchie still loves “retarded” Madonna
By Alexandra Heilbron on October 9, 2009 | 9 Comments
In an interview that appears in the November issue of Esquire magazine, Guy Ritchie spoke briefly of his ex-wife, Madonna, with whom he shares a nine-year-old son, Rocco. “She’s a manifester, if there ever was one,” he says. “First-rate manifester. Madonna makes things happen. Put Madonna up against any twenty-three-year-old, she’ll outwork them, outdance them, outperform them. The woman is broad. And, of course, here you go: I still love her,” he admitted, adding, “But she’s retarded, too.” About the pub he co-owns in the Mayfair district of London, the Punch Bowl, he said, “Madonna, when she came in here, it was old-school London. No one bothered her. ‘Hello, darling. How are you, darling? What can we get you?’ It was fundamental, old-school. It didn’t matter who she was. She was my wife.”

After years of blockbuster filmmaking, Guy Ritchie returns to his stylish roots in this gangster tale about drug deals gone wrong and what it takes to be on top.
my my, Guy…not only do you “surprise” us with your love for Madonna but you follow it up with a most inappropriate use for the word retarded….all in a days’ work (?)
Who in the hell really cares.
i agree with you both.
me to
Jo-Anne, your comment about the innapropriate word made me rethink it, and I actually think it was a very appropriate word if you take a look at the true meaning of the term and not the social use of it.
I also at first was struck by the term, but then thought that it is still a “real” word, and that it is still used legitimately in speech. Also, I don’t know much about the British use of the English language, but we also must remember that how a word is used/perceived in North America isn’t necessarily how it is used in other parts of the world. I would like to believe that Guy Ritchie didn’t mean it in the crude way it is often used here. But if he did, it just shows that he is no different than many other people — he just gets quoted.
Guy should have known…you never go “full retard”, didnt he see tropic thunder? could have called her “slightly off kilter” or something instead.
hey whered my other comments go?
KDog…if you’re still around (not seen you before on here) can you please let me know what you mean by your comment? Got me curious what you consider the “true” meaning…
