Madonna the cult author?: As is our weekly wont, Madonna is back in the news on the backs of critics who complain her new book, "The English Roses," is actually a covert attempt to convert impressionable kids to kabbalah. The British press, as is their wont, is sensationalizing the non-story. "Star Launches Kids’ Book Based on the Kabbalah Cult," read one headline. "As Madonna Pens Children’s book on Kabbalah, Is the Sect Exploiting Her Devotion to It," read another. We're still trying to figure out the secret. Madonna has publically said her kabbalah practice prompted her to write the book. Proselytizing or not, it's hardly covert, but you know that Material Girl. Controversy is her wont.
