LOURDES LEON: A REAL NEW YORK HOUSEWIFE?

She’s neither married or even engaged, but Lourdes Leon is being wooed to join The Real Housewives of New York. Despite a recent cast overhaul, the once popular show isn’t pulling in the ratings it once did. The powers that be, including Bravo’s own Andy Cohen, feel what’s lacking is some STAR POWER. While Lourdes isn’t actually A-list, her mom is MADONNA! The hope is that Madonna will make appearances if Lourdes is cast. A authoritative source reveals that former RHONY star, Luann de Lesseps, is coaching Lourdes for her upcoming screen test…

MADONNA’S DAUGHTER IS TRYING WAY TOO HARD

That’s putting it mildly. Lourdes Leon is only 26 years old and nice looking, but she makes herself appear considerably older and hard edged. For starters, she doesn’t need all that HEAVY makeup- models in Paris are fresh-faced and natural these days. Lourdes looks like a female rapper who ‘s been around the block more than a few times. Her outfit is enough to scare the nice guys away and it hints at desperation. She wore this to the Mugler H&M Global Launch Event  in New York and we saw dozens of photos of her. She wasn’t smiling in a single one of them…this girl needs a makeunder.

MADONNA’S KIDS LOOK JUST LIKE THEIR FATHERS

Funny, but we never noticed how much Madonna’s two offspring – Lourdes Leon, 25, and Rocco Ritchie, 23, closely resemble their FATHERS- and share very little visible genetic connection with their mother. Lourdes is lucky because her handsome Cuban dad Carlos Leon is 6’2, so at 5’7,” she towers over her petite mother. (Of course it helps her modeling career.) Rocco obviously identifies with his lookalike dad, director Guy Ritchie, and chose to live with him in London for the past few years. Rocco has long had great fashion sense and he’s now an artist. Rocco looks very excited in this photo with Lourdes – they are meeting Madonna at the Tom Ford fashion show in NY and have three seats in the front row awaiting them.

ROCCO RITCHIE AND LOURDES LEON HAVE A LOT IN COMMON

Nice to see Madonna’s kids hanging out together. Madonna’s oldest daughter Lourdes Leon was hired to model in the Marine Serre show during Fashion Week in Paris and her half-brother Rocco Ritchie, 21, popped over from the UK to catch the show. Lourdes and Rocco both lived with their mother in New York until a few years ago. Rocco was on his mother’s Rebel Heart Tour when he was 16 and he abruptly quit the tour and moved in with his father, director Guy Ritchie in London. This caused a family rift which has since settled, and Rocco is living with Guy’s family and studying art in the UK. He’s even had a few art shows and sold paintings under the fake name of Rhed. Which makes sense because he’s always had a killer sense of style.

LUCKY LOURDES LEON DID NOT INHERIT HER MOTHER’S HEIGHT

Lourdes León’s modeling career is still booming – her latest conquest is Calvin Klein, who wants to show that he’s not as classic as he used to be. Lourdes looks good here because she’s not wearing the heavy makeup and false eyelashes she usually sports. She looks her age- 25- and like her mother Madonna, she does not shave her underarms. Note that she’s wearing MEN’S CK boxer shorts – Calvin wants his customers to wear whatever underwear is comfortable for them – no matter their gender. Lourdes is lucky to be around 5’7,” that’s 5 or 6 inches taller than her mother…

LOURDES LEON: TOO MUCH TOO SOON

Moschino designer Jeremy Scott posted this photo of himself and Lourdes Leon at the Met Gala, and they both look good, but….Madonna’s daughter is only 24, yet with that heavy Kardashian inspired makeup she could easily pass for a 38 year old cocktail waitress in Las Vegas. Doesn’t she realize models are supposed to look YOUNG and fresh? She’s going to age herself out of the business…

UNDERCOVER MODEL ON THE SUBWAY

You never know who’s going to sit next to you on the subway to Brooklyn. In this case, it’s a successful model in a colorful outfit slumped next to the exit. (We like that she’s obediently wearing her mask.) Lourdes Leon’s new ad campaign for Stella McCartney x Adidas just came out and she looks much different in the ad photos with all those braids. Her mother Madonna is only 5’2” (she claims 5’4,” but we’ve seen her close up) but lucky Lourdes got a little height from her 6’2” father Carlos, and she’s 5’7”.

SOMETIMES MADONNA AND LOURDES AGREE

While her brother Rocco often seems embarrassed by his mother Madonna’s eccentricities, Lourdes Leon is following in her footsteps. For years Madonna has rebelled against the custom of women shaving their underarms, and she often posted photos of herself flaunting her natural armpits. Not long ago she proudly posted a photo of Lourdes with underarm hair. It wasn’t a fluke – Lourdes just appeared in Miami for spring break and she too is rejecting the notion that women – and not men – should have hair-free underarms.
