Apparently, keeping it politically correct isn’t Guy Ritchie’s strong suit.
The director praised ex-wife Madonna in an interview with the November issue of Esquire Magazine. Guy says he still loves the pop icon — even if she is a little wacky. “She’s a manifester, if there ever was one. First-rate manifester. Madonna makes things happen. Put Madonna up against any 23-year-old, she’ll outwork them, outdance them.”
“And, of course, here you go: I still love her,” Guy finally added after a little nudging from the interviewer. Aww shucks, how sweet. But Guy isn’t all lovey-dovey now that his romance with Madge is dead and gone. “But she’s retarded, too.”
