Madonna will never be allowed to appear on 'Absolutely Fabulous' even if she wanted to, according to the show's creator Jennifer Saunders.

 

Madonna has been banned from ever appearing on 'Absolutely Fabulous'.

 

Jennifer Saunders - who plays hippie PR woman Edina Monsoon in the long-running comedy series - was once desperate for the 'Girl Gone Wild' singer to appear on the show, but after a number of snubs she has decided she will never be allowed on.

 

She said: "We have had loads of celebrities who have said no to us, but always Madonna. Madonna is the bane of our lives.

 

"In fact even if she said yes now we would have to turn her down. Madonna has always said no - and so are we."

 

Previous guests on the show have included Emma Bunton, Lulu, Kirsty Wark and Kate Moss and Jennifer admits the best celebrities to have are the ones who play it "deadpan".

 

According to the Daily Star newspaper, she said: "All you can say to them is, 'I really want you to be straight'.

 

"The greatest guests we have on are the people who play it completely deadpan and straight so we can be funny off them.

 

"The worst ones are the ones who try and overdo the joke."

 

Jennifer - who stars in the show alongside Joanna Lumley - is currently working on the movie version of the BBC show.

I bet she wouldnt turn her down if Madonna wanted to appear on the show lol.

Madonna 'funny' fashion director

 

Madonna was 'cracking jokes' when Georgia May Jagger modeled for her.

The singing iconic selected Georgia as the latest face of her Material Girl clothing line. The model flew to meet Madonna and was amazed by how kind and fun she was.

'Madonna was funny. She was cracking a lot of jokes. I love it when women are as powerful as she is. People have been looking up to her for 30 years,' she recalled.

Georgia's mother is model Jerry Hall. She spoken about borrowing items from her mom's closet in the past and now says Jerry is ruthless when it comes to clearing out clothes. Thankfully, there are certain items she can't bear to part with.

'Oh yeah. Whatever ones will fit me,' she told British magazine InStyle, when asked if she borrows from her mom. 'She's got rid of a lot of her old stuff, though when there was that '80s revival a few years ago, she was like, 'I never thought I'd be able to wear my shoulder pads again, this is so cool!'

Madonna Inspires Example's Healthy New Lifestyle

 

British rapper Example credits pop superstar Madonna with inspiring his healthy new lifestyle.

The hip-hop star - real name Elliot Gleave - has turned his life around in recent years after admitting he previously struggled with 'a couple of minor soft controllable addictions'.

He now eats healthily and enjoys 'power smoothies', and insists he has been following Madonna's example of keeping fit.

Example tells British newspaper Sunday Mirror, 'I used to read how she had her own nutritionist, masseuse and personal trainer and think she was an idiot. But the summer took it out of me. I did 48 gigs in two months. However hard you think you can work, you can't. I'm having 10 hours sleep a night. I've got a blender and I'm making power smoothies. A blender has changed my life. All I do is eat superfood salads with legumes.'

In an exclusive interview with PinkNews.co.uk, gay BBC Radio 1 afternoon presenter Scott Mill says the ‘Queen of Pop’, Madonna is no longer a cool artist for the station.

 

“I don’t think we play Madonna anymore and if you ask a 17-year-old about her, they go ‘don’t care’…it’s a sign of the times, things change, it’s a generational thing. I like Madonna, does a 17-year-old? [she’s] probably not at the top of their list”.

 

Scott continued: “And that’s horrible, but that is the way it is…and also youth audiences are so fickle in what they like and what they don’t like, and they’re quite opinionated, you just have got to keep on top of that”.

 

Or what he really means is that She's to old to play on Radio 1.

Norton: 'Madonna was charming but I failed with Kylie'

 

Graham Norton has revealed what he thought about two of pop’s biggest female stars after they appeared on his chat show.

The Irish comedian told the Daily Mail that despite her reputation, Madonna didn’t act like a diva when he interviewed her on his BBC1 show earlier this year:

'She didn’t make any demands. She came on, and within a few minutes she was on the floor on her hands and knees. She was on a charm offensive.'

When asked how nervous he was about meeting the Queen of Pop, Norton replied: 'Terribly. I was worried it wouldn’t happen. But oddly enough, as soon as she came up the little steps, that was it. I felt it didn’t actually matter what happened after that, because she was on the show.'

'Afterwards we went out for dinner and got really drunk - not Madonna; me and my friends - and the atmosphere all day was incredible. It was like a royal visit.'

But the 49-year-old admitted that his meeting with Kylie Minogue in the late 90s didn’t go so well:

'I failed with Kylie. I’ve seen her on other shows since, and met her myself and she was lovely, but it just didn’t work. I wonder if it was because it was the first series [it started on Channel 4 in 1998] and she thought I was out to get her.'

''Such a total pro''

"When we were shooting the campaign she wasn't there, she was thousands of miles away, but after every shot the director would say: 'M wants you to put your arm like this,' or 'M wants you to change those shorts'.

"It was really freaky because we couldn't work out how on earth she knew what was happening. (Lola) and I were just laughing our heads off."

 

"It turned out, she was having every frame of every picture sent to her as it happened and literally directing the whole shoot from a room in another country. It was genius. She's such a total pro."

Michael Parkinson on Madonna:

It took 20 years for me to interview her in 2005, which was the first time there had been no demands, no deals. She was absolutely charming.
