Madonna bans acting for daughter Lourdes

Don't mess with the material mom. I think we all know the consequences of that. But what about when you're her daughter? Lourdes is probably just as headstrong as her mommy and may even like to follow in her mother's big footsteps someday. Says Madonna, though, Lourdes is forbidden from acting.
Nevertheless, the acting bug has allegedly bitten little Lola. Many celebrity kids either attempt or succeed at following in their famous parents' footsteps, especially when it comes to acting. And many of those celebrity parents have said they don't want their kids acting or being in the profession at all. The stress, the drama, the lies of the media and the unbelievable pressure to be perfect are too much, they feel, for their kids to go through (yet they continue to do it).
Madonna is no exception. She is a mom, after all, and she wants to protect her family. According to a "source" Madge has banned her daughter, 11, from being in a new movie and has nixed Lola being involved in the craft until she finishes high school. I wonder how she feels about Lourdes going to college--Madonna dropped out, and it didn't seem to bother her career aspirations in the slightest!

I wonder what other career choices she has been banned from as well? Politician? Pole Dancer? Call Girl? Madam? I see Lourdes as a manager of a grocery store in a small midwestern town that also does a little side work preparing taxes between December and April. Maybe something blue collar? Inspector at a plastics factory or a machine operator? School bus driver? Sure was a good thing Madonna's dad didn't forbid her from getting into show business, how else would Dennis Rodman have got herpes?

I wouldn't be surprised if Rodman has AIDS. How anyone could lie with someone so disgustingly ugly is beyong me. But I guess looks didn't matter to Madonna then. I detest Rodman and I'm glad I don't see anything about him in the news anymore. Good riddance to bad rubbish.

Hilarious. Madonna is such a hypocrite and a pseudo-intellect. She needs to exit state left and let her daughter make her own choices. I foresee those two having a big rift/parting when that young lady gets older. Can't wait... Madonna is a loser.

Can we let Lourdes act and ban Madonna instead?

You guys are absolutely brutal. Really nice to bash a woman you don't know, just because she's famous. Anyway, I give Madonna kudos for not wanting her daughter to enter the industry until after High School - give Lourdes time to enjoy being a kid, she has her entire life to work. And we all know what happens to child stars...

Madonna is right. She only wants the best for her daughter,though there is a catch. Lourdes should be allowed to make her own healthy choices as well. I would hate to see her bombarded by negative media. I don't have kids but I speak from my own experiences. I was fortunate to act at a young age in childrens' plays sponsored by my mom's AAUW group. It was fun. I am glad for the experience and I was fortunate to have finished high school and graduate with a regular diploma. School is a first priority. Stick to school,Lourdes, Act later
