They’re children, not publicity tools, Madge
ANOTHER week, another flurry of pics on Madona’s social media sites, featuring her newly adopted, four-year-old twin daughters, Stella and Esther.
Here are the girls in their Adidas tracksuits. Here are the girls playing piano. And here, in perhaps the most cynical one yet, are the girls in cool camouflage jackets with the caption, “My Mom is thinking about releasing her Rebel Heart DVD for her birthday. Can you wait that long?”
We can, Madge. If fact, we’ll hang about until you get the message that these gorgeous little girls are children that deserve privacy, not publicity tools to be trotted out to promote whatever you’re flogging.
●THIS week’s esteemed PISH award (Profiteering Is Shameless Here) is being slipped into a Louis Vuitton tennis racket case and delivered to whatever country club Phil Green is currently frequenting.

Of course, he’s fooling no one. This wasn’t done out of benevolence, justice or righteousness. It was the only way to retain his knighthood and take the heat off his public vilification.
Like a shoplifter wearing three jumpers, a cashmere cardie and a designer frock under his full-length puffa, Green’s not sorry for his actions. He’s only sorry he got caught and his mugshot, record and modus operandi are now so well known that future targets can see him coming.
