They’ve been at odds with each other for decades, but this past Tuesday night (January 18) Madonna and Prince decided to let bygones be bygones.

Madge showed up at Prince’s gig at Madison Square Garden in New York City, where he made a good-natured joke about Madonna’s high-priced concert tickets.

In previous years, the “Material Girl” singer and the “Let’s Go Crazy” stud, who dated in 1985, took turns taking shots at each other in interview and during public appearances.

Back in 2007, Prince declared during one of his concerts, “I got so many hits y’all can’t handle me. I got more hits than Madonna’s got kids.”

So Madonna, Jesus and Lourdes walk into a room… er, is it just me or is this sounding like a joke? But there’s no punchline here, just a fabulous purse in the form of Madge’s foxy black Jimmy Choo Blythe bag. I love the sexy texture and wraparound buckles. It almost distracts me from that disturbing blouse Madonna’s wearing. Almost.

Check out Madonna in Dolce & Gabbana’s new spring/summer 2010 ad campaign, which was captured by celebrity photographer Steven Klein on November 6th in New York City. The images will be published in this week’s Italian edition of Vanity Fair.

The ad campaign, which is inspired by Italian Neorealism cinema, shows a very domesticated Madonna washing dishes and preparing food at a dining room table.

Designers Domenico Dolce and Stefano Gabbana said, “To have Madonna in our campaign is a dream come true”.

Madonna is seen looking fierce as she carries her black Louis Vuitton Mahina XXL leaving the Casa do Saber, a children’s charity in Sao Paulo, Brazil.

You probably saw Lady GaGa’s special skit with Madonna on Saturday Night Live…
but you didn’t see the this!

Check out the original version of the skit – complete with a song! – that the Queen and Princess of Pop performed at the dress rehearsal, which never aired.

Madonna’s run her course over at Louis Vuitton; for the luxury company’s next campaign, It-Girl model Lara Stone will step into the spotlight, gracing the spring-summer campaign, which will be shot by photography great Steven Meisel.

Meanwhile, for their sunglasses campaign, Vuitton enlisted artist/designer/socialite/businessman André Saraiva to photograph his fab friends (such as Vahina Giocante, Annabelle Dexter-Jones, and Oliver Zahm) in the bright and funky shades at The Standard in New York. The label apparently wanted a youthful, up-all-night feel for the campaign.

Sounds like they’re trying to entice a younger buyer – maybe they should lower their prices if that’s the case.

Lourdes Leon may be the second coming of Madonna, but that doesn’t mean the trend-setting tween doesn’t have her own unique views when it comes to handbags. Hence, her funky and age-appropriate Harajuku Lovers purse, which stands in stark contrast to mama Madonna’s refined Louis Vuitton monogram handbag. Who do you think has the better style — or better bag?

Hold on to your blue taffeta bunny ears, girls – the first photo from Steven Meisel’s shots of the new Madonna/Louis Vuitton campaign, dubbed “Part Deux,” has been released. Here we see a suspiciously youthful Madge sporting more wild headgear (eat your heart out, Aretha) while wearing a divine magenta frock and clutching a Louis Vuitton monogram purse in her (flashback!) fingerless glove-wearing hands. This handbag isn’t radically different from the rest of the LV repertoire, so I’m anxious to see what the other photos showcase. Time goes by, so slowly…
