Beschrijving

This book does not disappoint, in fact, it's probably one of the best books ever written about Madonna.  
As some would like to believe, Christopher does not throw his sister under a bus, but does take her down a couple notches.  
He reveals how self-centered, egotistical, and controlling she can be.  
 
Christopher does not play the victim, but does let it be known that he gets sucked in by the fame and fortune.  
Nevertheless, their relationship fell apart because she treated him like a servant, did not pay him what he was worth, and surrounded herself with sycophants, and she had Guy Ritchie who Ciccone made clear he disliked intensely.  
 
I think the reason why Madonna is beginning to crack, is because she has created a fantasy world, and everyone around her is afraid to tell her otherwise.  
She has separated herself from family; which in the end is never a good idea.  
 
What is most disturbing about Madonna's behavior, that Christopher reveals, is that nothing is sacred when it comes to advancing her career and image.  
She has notoriously used people.  
She staged the visitation to her mother's grave during the Truth or Dare documentary.  
There is also strong insinuation that she half-heartedly adopted those children and is playing humanitarian to exploit and compete with Angelina Jolie.  
 
Nevertheless, with all her faults, she is still an admirable person who can be loving and caring, and does deserve all that she has earned.  
Christopher's book is a very well rounded view on Madonna the person.
