And so does he, sources are saying

While yesterday speculation had it that Madonna had kidnapped her latest “boytoy,” 22-year-old model Jesus Luz, as his own mother claimed, today rumors have it that their affair is nothing but a marketing plot. Sources are saying that the singer is just using Luz to stir up interest in her tour but, for what it’s worth, he too is using her for extra publicity.

The Daily Mirror has spoken to spies close to Madonna, and has learned that she is intentionally allowing the paparazzi to see her in Jesus’ company. By doing so, it has been said, she hopes to convince people to buy more of her music, while also making ex husband Guy Ritchie jealous.

Guy, in his turn, is reportedly not moved in any way by Madonna parading around town with Jesus, because he understands it’s nothing more than a plot meant to attract attention, it is maintained.

“It’s a classic Madge publicity stunt, but suits both parties well. Despite her advancing years, she looks like she’s still got what it takes to pull a 22-year-old. And Jesus is getting a boost of publicity as well. Everyone’s a winner.” the unnamed source reveals for the aforementioned publication. If this is accurate, we might as well mention, the entire “stunt” has returned awesome results, with everybody showing much interest in the love affair of the 50-year-old Madonna and the young male model.

“Guy saw the pictures of her and Jesus together and laughed out loud. He sees it as another publicity exercise. Taking Jesus to Kabbalah is a masterstroke, as she always historically introduces her lovers to the religion.” the spy also points out, referring to the visit to the Kabbalah center a few days ago, when Madonna also took Jesus, besides the kids. “It’s just Madonna for you. She loves being the centre of attention. You would have thought she’d grown tired of it by now.” the source further adds.

As mentioned above, yesterday Jesus’ mother spoke to the media and claimed that Madonna had kidnapped her son and taken him to New York much against his will, “snatching him to a love nest and controlling his every move.” At the same time, she also voiced her concern over the age gap that separated them: Madonna turns 51 this year, Jesus’ grandmother is just 50, while his mother is Madonna’s junior by 14 years.
