Madonna has revealed her husband Guy Ritchie lost his sex drive while he was on a cookie diet.The pop superstar - who pays tribute to her "incredible" love-life with Guy on her forthcoming album 'Hard Candy' - was not happy when the British director's libido took a nose-dive after he substituted breakfast and lunch for low-calorie biscuits.She said: "My husband went on that cookie diet and it was such a turn-off because he didn't want to have sex. He's not on it anymore, thank god!"Despite her complaints about the side effects, Madonna admits the 800 calorie-a-day diet - which also counts Kelly Clarkson and Jennifer Hudson among its followers - was a success.The 49-year-old singer added: "He did lose weight but he didn't really need to lose that much weight. I think he did it because all his friends were doing it and he wanted to see if he could do it."Madonna - who has previously quashed rumours her seven-year marriage to Guy is on the rocks - recently insisted the couple have a very healthy sex life.When asked if the line "Sex with you is incredible" on her song 'Incredible' was a direct reference to Guy, she exclaimed: "Absolutely! Sex with Guy is incredible and surprise, surprise, it's his favourite song on the album. Actually, maybe it's not his favourite song but it's definitely his favourite line."

    What more than likely caused Madonna's hubby libido to fail. My doctor told me that dropping below a certain calorie threshold slams the body into Starvation mode.

    It is so declasse for Madonna to speak publicly about her sex life.

    If she has any class at all she would keep her bedroom affairs PRIVATE.

    Period.

    All of these absurd references to her sex life are surely a case of 'Thou dost protest too much." Considering Madonna's age (50), isn't she reacting to her menopause and the precipitous... Read More
