Madonna's Stalker Unfit for Trial
Madonna's alleged stalker has been declared unfit for trial.
Grzegorz Matlok - who was arrested last Saturday (March 12, 2011) after breaking into the "Material Girl" hitmaker's ?10 million home in London - did not enter pleas to charges of burglary in court earlier this week, and it was instead ruled he will be held in custody until April 14 so his mental health can be assessed. Grzegorz was wrestled to the ground by bodyguards at the 10-bedroom mansion belonging to the 52-year-old singer in London's Marylebone area at 5.30am on Saturday, after being found clutching several of her possessions.
Despite having a huge security team and a state-of-the-art CCTV system in place, the Polish-born intruder - who the singer's bodyguards told police was a "stalker" - gained entry to the Georgian townhouse by smashing a side window.
Speaking of the incident, a senior police source said: "Something dreadful has happened here. The security around the world's most famous pop star should be impregnable."
At the time of the break-in, Madonna - who has four children, Lourdes, 14, Rocco, 10, Mercy, six, and five-year-old David - was in Bay City, Michigan, paying her respects to her late 99-year-old grandmother, Elsie Mae Fortin, who had helped raise the singer and her five siblings after their mother died of breast cancer when Madonna was just five.
Madonna's Brother Slams Lady Gaga as a Copycat
Sure, there are two decades between the two songs in question, but Christopher Ciccone, younger brother of Madonna, says he's nevertheless astounded at how similar Lady Gaga's new single, 'Born This Way,' sounds to one of his sister's beloved anthems, 1989's 'Express Yourself.' Gaga intends to perform her instant hit song at the Grammy Awards tonight, but first, Ciccone wanted the chance to express himself to RadarOnline this weekend.
"All I can say is 'What the F--K!" the director-designer says. "It sounds just like 'Express Yourself.' I can't believe it to tell you the truth."
But Ciccone seems outraged, not flattered. Now 50, he was closely involved in Madonna's career when 'Express Yourself' was one of her signature songs, and he worked on the design and direction of her wildly successful tours during that era.
These days, Ciccone is reportedly estranged from his famous sibling, after penning the tell-all 'Life With My Sister Madonna' in 2008. Just last month, he analyzed Madge's obvious influence on Gaga's successful career, telling RadarOnline: "I can see a lot of my sister's influence in what Lady Gaga is doing today. It's like 'Madonna on speed' actually....I think Lady Gaga is a great writer, singer, and performance artist, but sometimes she goes too far with her costumes and persona and it must be hard for her fans to identify with that."
