Former plus size model and anorexia survivor Crystal Renn shocked people with her startling slim down earlier this week, and now an eating disorder expert is weighing in on her unhealthy look, RadarOnline.com can exclusively reveal.

Dressed in a skintight scarlet Zac Posen gown, Renn was a shadow of her former self when she walked the red carpet at the New York premiere of W.E. on Monday night, prompting fears she has fallen back into bad habits.

"It is common for people with eating disorders to have periods of relapse. This can be caused by numerous factors but most common are emotional issues," psychotherapist Jessica Aronson, who has not worked with the star, told RadarOnline.com in an exclusive interview.

Madonna got a chilly reception when she walked the red carpet at the screening of her new film W.E. in London on Sunday, and for once the English weather wasn't to blame.

The Queen of Pop was booed by the British crowd when she arrived at the Empire Cinema in Leicester Square for the screening of her film at the 55th annual BFI London Film Festival in her adopted homeland.

It's not the first time that Madonna's latest directorial venture has been bashed.

It's not the first time that Madonna's latest directorial venture has been bashed.

As RadarOnline.com previously reported, W.E. was slammed by critics when it premiered at the Venice Film Festival in September.

The Wallace Simpson biopic is based on the life of the American socialite who married Prince Edward, future King of England, in 1937, forcing him to abdicate the throne.

Some fans are called Little Monsters and some fans are called "obsessive" and it looks like Madonna thinks Lady Gaga falls into the latter category.

Answering questions at the Venice Film Festival about her criticially panned film W.E. a reporter asked Madge about fans admiring her, including Lady Gaga, and the superstar doesn't seem flattered by the attention.

Some fans are called Little Monsters and some fans are called "obsessive" and it looks like Madonna thinks Lady Gaga falls into the latter category.

Answering questions at the Venice Film Festival about her criticially panned film W.E. a reporter asked Madge about fans admiring her, including Lady Gaga, and the superstar doesn't seem flattered by the attention.

According to LeSoir the Material Girl curtly replied: "As for Lady Gaga, I have no comment on her obsessions related to me, because I do not know if it is based on something profound or superficial."

Controversy swarmed around the two women when Lady Gaga released her newest album with the song Born This Way that many remarked sounded incredibly similar to Madonna's hit Express Yourself.

Gaga has been outspoken in her admiration for Madonna, gushing to talk show host Jay Leno: "There is really no one that is a more adoring and loving Madonna fan than me. I am the hugest fan personally and professionally."

One way Lady Gaga hasn't been able to top her idol - Britney Spears famously kissed Madonna at the VMAs in 2003, but this year she rebuffed Gaga's kiss, saying "I've already done that."

Lourdes Leon may only be 14, but she was looking very grown-up and in the lead when we spotted her with her mom Madonna at London's Heathrow Airport Sunday morning.

The two, along with Lourdes' younger half-brother Rocco Ritchie, were flying home from the Venice Film Festival where Madonna's new film W.E. -- Madge directed the Wallace Simpson biopic -- was savaged by critics and audiences alike.

Madonna's New Movie Savaged By Critics At Venice Film Festival


Posted on Sep 03, 2011 @ 08:00PM - 13 comments

By Radar Staff

The Material Girl might be a superstar in the music industry, but films? Run for the hills!

W.E. -- that's the title -- directed by Madonna was torn apart by critics at the Venice Film Festival, where the movie premiered this weekend.

The Wallace Simpson biopic is based on the life of the American socialite who married Prince Edward, future King of England, back in 1937, forcing him to abdicate the throne.

"Burdened with risible dialogue and weak performances, the pic doesn't have much going for it," wrote the movie critic from Variety about the film featuring Abbie Cornish.

"Weird, brown-nosing and slightly vile," chimed Time Out, while the UK's well respected Guardian newspaper called it "an extraordinarily silly, preening, fatally mishandled film."

The singer-turned-actress-turned-director did earn one almost kind review.  The Daily Telegraph said the picture was "better than expected."

The 53-year-old star made her first step into the movie arena when she starred in the 1996 movie adaptation of the musical Evita about the life of Eva Peron.

Maybe she shouldn't give up her day job.

By Radar Staff

When you think of Material Girl you usually think of Madonna’s smash hit song from 1985. Then, maybe her clothing line that she launched last year, under the same name, with her daughter Lourdes.

But now, another clothing company is trying to take away Madonna’s right to name her line after her hit song — claiming THEY are the original Material Girl.

Madonna’s company MG Icon is being sued by L.A. Triumph Inc. who claim that her fashion line has infringed on their trademark.
