More images of Madonna on the Late Show

In the pictures below you can see Madonna eating pizza for her skit on The Late Show with David Letterman in New York yesterday. In the scene Madonna and David Letterman eat at Angelo’s Restaurant next door to the Ed Sullivan Theater.

David is also photgraphed kissing Madonna goodbye during the taping of his show, and Madonna is shown entering the Late Show studio riding on the hockey sticks of ten New York Rangers.

• She has sold over 200 million albums worldwide

• She’s a member of the Rock and Roll Hall of Fame

• Her 2008-2009 “Sticky & Sweet” tour earned $408 million, the highest ever for a solo artist.

• It’s Madonna!

Madonna is carried in from the back of the house by the New York Rangers. She sits atop a labyrinth of hockey sticks. I’m not sure but the sunglassed Queen of Pop may have popped her head on the doorway on her way in. Once on stage, she is gently placed down. She greets Dave warmly. The New York Rangers exit.

Dave: “Have you ever ridden hockey players before?”

Madonna; “The hockey sticks were pinching me”

Dave: “Do you want to do it again?”

Dave asks if it would be OK if he called her ‘Madge’, a name she has been known to go by. She isn’t sure if she should keep that moniker since some believe it to be an alias for “middle aged housewife”, although she likes to think it is short for “Majestic.” Dave believes being a middle aged housewife can be majestic.

There’s some marriage talk — she’s not, he is — and would Madonna ever think of marrying again? She says, “I think I’d rather get run over by a train.” I think that’s a “no”.

Dave asks about her dalliances with professional sports stars, and her recent matching with Alex Rodriquez. She avoids the questions and parries back, “Didn’t you almost get arrested for bringing up A-Rod’s name?” Dave is startled by the thought of being arrested for his comment and explains that, no, he almost didn’t get arrested. He almost got fired. But that’s how rumors start.

Pizza? Dave’s heard that Madonna has never been in a New York City pizza parlor. He asks, “What do you like on your pie?” Uh oh. That’s an opening for some heavy double-entendres. “What do you like on top?” Dave phones nearby Angelo’s Pizza and places an order, with Madonna’s help:
Pizza, no cheese. Tomato sauce. Black olives. Some Parmesan. No onions. No anchovies. No pickles. Drink? A martini. Dave hangs up and tells the women he’ll be right over.

Before they head over to Angelo’s, Dave holds up a photo of Madonna’s daughter, 12-year-old Lourdes. It’s a recreation of a familiar photo of Madonna from 20 years ago. How is Lourdes? Like most moms of a 12-year-old, Madonna describes her as “Trouble with a capital T”

From stories he’s told, you can tell Dave truly cherishes his role as a dad. He asks Madonna, “If you could be just one thing in life, would you want to be a parent?”
Madonna thinks a moment, scrunches her nose and curls her brow and says, “Nooo!” I liked her honesty, but maybe she thought Dave meant “apparent.”

Dave asks Madonna about her horseback riding. Still do it? She says she would like to but after being thrown recently, the insurance company from her tour won’t let her.

Dave says he got thrown from his horse once. Madonna asks, “Everything OK?” Dave says off-handedly, “Yeah, we just put him down.” I laughed. I always like when Dave uses the euphemism, “put him down.”

It’s time for pizza! Dave escorts Madonna through the theater, out the back of the house, and out to Broadway. Once outside, they make a quick left to Angelo’s. They get the table by the window and the pizza is delivered. Dave warns Madonna that it may still be hot, then burns his tongue as he takes the first bite. He screams in agony. As the many look in from Broadway, Dave thanks Madonna for the visit and throws to commercial.

I liked Madonna tonight. She was fun and easy going. Her 3rd Greatest Hits album, “Celebration”, is in stores now.

It’s Madonna sharing the remaining pizza with the throngs. I think she needed some fishes and loaves.
