"madonna" news and stories

Some celebrities are perfect for the food they promote -- Florence Henderson and Wesson Oil seemed made for each other like Popeye and spinach.

But not all stars are a natural match for the products they endorse. (Like that former Soviet premier who went on to do Pizza Hut ads?) Here are Slashfood's picks for the 10 Weirdest Celebrity Food Commercials of All Time.

And that headline is your first answer in this quiz over at AOL Food (via The Smoking Gun). Match the contract demand with the singer that makes the demand on their contract.

All the same names seem to pop up: Britney, Christina, Mariah, Celine, Madonna, and Paula Abdul. I didn't realize that Abdul even toured anymore, but she actually seems to have some reasonable demands when it comes to dressing room food. One diva demands NO TOMATO, APPLE, OR GRAPE JUICES. And another wants only Diet Coke - IN CANS!

For the record, I only got 3 out of 10. I guess I don't know my divas.

Celebrity Cellars, famous (?) for the iconic Rolling Stones lips wine, is shipping a new variety starting January 12, 2006: Madonna. The label is typically sexy material girl and features two images from "Confessions on a Dance Floor," Madonna as a "sexy disco diva."

The wine comes in Barbera, Cabernet Sauvignon, Pinot Grigio and, of course, UnWine for those recovering alcoholic Madonna fans. Although the blurbs describe the wines (the Barbera: "has abundant, velvety layers of ripe plums, blackberries and spice"), there's no telling how reputable the wine, or whether it's even meant to be drunk. The vineyards are loosely described as "cooler valleys of Northern California," which could basically be anywhere. So, what do you think - should this be drunk?   [via the feed blog]
