I'd read about Christopher Ciccone's reality show, The Ciccone Factory, but hadn't thought it was interesting enough to post about. He wants to discover a club performer and groom them for stardom. In exactly the same way he had nothing to do with big sister Madonna's success.

But what surprised me was this article in which he claims he and Madonna are e-speaking again after his savage book about her (and his frequent disses of her on TV since):

"We're back to e-mail stage. She's busy opening up a bunch of gyms, but she's more than welcome to stop by. She's an inspiration to a lot of people."

In Christopher, she inspires resentment, but I guess that counts.
