LONDON - British director Guy Ritchie is planning to open a pub in New York on the advice of his American actor friends who are regular at his London bar, the Punch Bowl.
Ritchie's London drinking haunt the Punch Bowl has become a popular destination for actors and pop stars and he is confident he could turn it into a global chain with the first new venue being openedin New York, reported contactmusic.com
"Guy spends a lot of time there with American actors when they're in London for premieres or for shoots. They all reckon he could branch out and make the pub a global brand. Guy sees the potential, said a source.
The director received the pub as part of his divorce settlement from ex-wife Madonna in 2008.
yeah, when you're spending madonnas money, the skys the limit i supposeThe superstar, 51, had been in talks with Simon Cowell to appear in Saturday's final, with insiders claiming she was set to duet with Stacey.

But the deal collapsed and the snub is being blamed for Stacey losing after she sang with Canadian crooner Michael Bubl� instead.
A show source said Madge's team would only let her perform if she had an album or tour to plug.
The source said: "We were told she wasn't in promotion so it wasn't going to happen.
hey wait a second what about revolver?? lol
"It's a shame as she'd have been brilliant and given the show a real lift, especially with Stacey."
Fans of Stacey feel that Bubl� does not have the same popular appeal as Robbie Williams, who partnered Olly Murs, and George Michael, who did a duet with Joe McElderry.
Some are so furious that they have urged Brits to boycott the winner's song.
Fan Brumgal wrote online: "Stacey was stitched up. Her chances of winning were ruined by Cowell giving her Bubl� to sing with. Do not buy the X Factor single."

So many articles are popping up online claiming that LV dropped Madonna from their label: When in fact, her spring and fall collection has just ended a back to back collaboration , an unprecedented 2 season campaign. And yet, people will try to spin this into something its not. Pathetic! What was she supposed to do , model LV clothes for 3 seasons? I guess no matter how long she stayed as the face of their brand , someone will write new lies. Get alife guys, Madonna is the queen of MUSIC and doesnt need your approval

East Enders have a new star in their midst.
Madonna, who earlier this year purchased (as we first reported) an Upper East Side townhouse that closed for around $32 million, is now finally buying her dream horse farm in the Hamptons.
Word is that Madonna is buying Kelly Klein's horse farm, Wild Ocean Farm, at 450 Mitchells Lane in Bridgehampton for under $10 million. The north-of-the-highway property includes 30 acres of land, but there's no house there. There might be a groom's apartment, but that would be it in terms of living space, brokers with knowledge of the farm say.
Klein, the ex-wife of Calvin Klein, had used the farm's indoor and outdoor rings to train show horses. A few months ago, she quietly put the word out that she was willing to sell the property. And we hear the deal with Madonna was done without a broker.
Madonna is also attempting to purchase an additional 24 acres that abut the property at 1151 Millstone Road, which is listed for $2.4 million. (It's also known as 10 Mitchells Lane).
That price might sound cheap, but internal broker notes reveal that Suffolk County either bought the land's development rights or is in the process of buying them. This means that Madge could ride her horses there but likely could not build a home on the land.
London, Dec 10 (ANI): British TV channels recently got a taste of Madonna's celebrity status as the pop diva threw tantrums on almost everything – even insisting that the air-conditioning be turned off since "it could affect her vocal chords". Madonna, who came to the GMTV studio for an interview during her recent trip to London, objected to anything that was not in line with her liking. "We knew Madonna was tough but had no idea she was quite so exacting. We had had specifications on lighting and camera angles before she arrived," the Mirror quoted a TV source as saying. The source said: "But she took one look at the chair and complained it was the wrong colour. The hitmaker then fussed over the red lighting. The insider revealed: "Everyone was stuck in this room sweating under the TV lights while we waited for her to give the thumbs up. "We had been warned not to turn on the aircon because it could affect her vocal cords. It was ridiculous." And more "brusque" behaviour from the star followed. The source added: "She had a string of interviews lined up and seemed to get more fractious as the day wore on. "The poor woman from Japan stood no chance and was seen looking forlorn in foyer. She said Madge had barely answered any of her questions and had been really sharp with her." However, Madonna's spokeswoman ignored all the reports of offhand behaviour by the star. She said: "Madonna was an ultimate professional throughout her day of interviews. And her favourite one was GMTV." (ANI)

A dance-off between Madonna and Lady Gaga would be one of the more exhilarating events to take place in the world of pop music — and according to Madge herself, it actually went down a couple of weeks back. Unfortunately, there's apparently no video available, but Madonna described it to British morning TV show GMTV.
"We had a party in New York a couple of weeks ago for my manager [Guy Oseary]," she told host Ben Shepard. "It was for his birthday and Lady Gaga was there and the DJ basically did a sort of a dance-off. The DJ would play one of her songs and then he would play one of mine and we both danced together in the middle and all of my dancers were around us. We just took turns dancing, too. I would dance to her song and sing all the words and she did the same to me. It was really fun."
The dance floor extravaganza wouldn't be the first time the two got together for a little friendly competition. The singers performed in a sketch together on "Saturday Night Live" back in October. They appeared during the "Deep House Dish" segment, a disco-based talk show. (According to Page Six, the friendly competition continued into Sunday morning.) The pair could have staged a pop-and-lock throwdown recently, as Gaga was also in the U.K. singing for the Queen.
linkMADONNA was shocked when her son ROCCO jumped onstage with her during her Sticky & Sweet Tour earlier this year (09) – because the youngster is normally very timid.
The star's 13-year-old daughter, Lourdes, joined her mum's dance troupe during a performance in Israel in September (09), but it was the addition of Rocco that stunned Madonna the most.
And the pop superstar credits her dancers with helping the shy nine year old become more confident.
She tells British TV show GMTV, "Well, Rocco's a very funny combination… he's sort of come out of his shell. When he jumped onstage to dance in my last show I was shocked actually… They're (my children are) very influenced by my dancers and the dancers all take them under their wing and they see them all as their big brothers and sisters. And secretly, unbeknownst to me, they're all studying privately with my dancers. Rocco comes out and busts out like a moonwalk or some kind of great dancing move and I'll ask him, 'Where did you get that?' He's always been quite shy so I was shocked when he wanted to be in the show."
linkMadonna finally seems like Madonna again. She has lost the British accent, the talentless British husband, lives in New York City, and is actually smiling again. She looks like she has gained some badly needed weight as well.
Madonna is about to start recording her new album. David Guetta (Black Eyed Peas) has bragged about working on some of the tracks. The only other confirmed producer is Brendan O'Brien (Pearl Jam and Bruce Springsteen). We are far more excited about Brendan O'Brien than David Guetta.
It's a perfect time for Madonna to start working on a new album. Recent albums from fellow divas Whitney Houston and Mariah Carey have failed to live up to any hype.
