Madonna gives daughter Lourdes big screen debutFirst she collaborated with her mom on the Material Girl clothing line and now Lourdes Leon is starring in Madonna's new movie. The 14-year-old aspiring entertainer is set to make her big-screen debut in the Madonna-directed film "W.E." According to MTV News, "W.E." chronicles the 1930s romance of King Edward VIII and scandalous American socialite Wallis Simpson, who would go on to become the Duke and Duchess of Windsor. The film also follows a modern-day woman, Wally Winthrop, who is fascinated by their love story. Lourdes, whose father is actor/personal trainer Carlos Leon, was spotted wearing a schoolgirl uniform on the movie's set last September, and now Abbie Cornish, who portrays Wally, has the details on the teen's role.
"She actually plays a younger version of my character," Cornish tells MTV. "She's a super-cute, younger version of my character." Though Cornish didn't share scenes with Lourdes, she did enjoy working with Her Madgesty. "Madonna is a natural director," she says. "It's in her nature. She's a Leo and she really represents the Leos very well. She's a very smart woman, very well read. She really absorbs a lot about whatever she's involved in. I think she really loves learning. It was interesting to see her evolve throughout the filmmaking process. She's such a cool woman."

Madonna by herself is bad enough. Now Madonna Jr? Im gonna hurl on that one! Madonna cant act. All of her movies suck a$$. I hope her mothers acting abilities are no indication of whats to come....
Eyebrow tweezers! I'm just saying....
Little Lourdes looks good what happen to her mom the only good part is her songs and the way she sings i know she dont have the looks but Little Lourdes has it all going on if she is looking for a good time look me up i will show you what you are misting out
I am a straight man who LOVES Madonna to death. She is not just for gay men and butch women. She has been a huge inspiration to me. That said, I wish she would not shove her daugher in our faces. I love how she shielded her kids from the spotlight, but not anymore.
Sorry Chaz...no dating my daughter but I would be glad to pull down your pants and give ya a BJ.
Love Madge.
Hey Madonna...pull my finger.
wow, can't believe it. Lola is growing up. Nice job M...........you've still got it....you've always had it....and always will!
Yo! Trim that thang girl!!!
Lol
Oh goodness. Little Lourdes is really turning into quite the woman. I wonder if madonna would mind if I took her to the Florida Keys for a week or so. YUMMY!
It will be so funny watching this feeble attempt go strait in the crapper.
I thnk little Lourdes needs an educaton on what a tramp her mom is. Lourdes, if you are reading this just be aware your mom is pure trash and deserves to be buried in a landfill.
Uh huh, and um where should you be buried. People who have nothing better to do than trash celebs are the stupid ones. Grow up and find your own life; stop being jealous of the success someone else has achieved. Stupid idiot.
She is a cute kid.. I suppose if my parents were talented famous people I would be milking it too... Why would I want a normal life when I can really essentially do what I want!...
What was this story about? I can't get that girls eyebrows out of my mind. Madonna should buy her some tweezers.
If she "acts" anything like her mother, she won't make it past the cutting room floor! Pllleeeaaassseee . . . don't stuff your little darlings down our throats.
Other than singing Madonna is pretty much talentless. Every movie she done fell over and died and now she is gonna direct...LMAO...this should be a HUGE CRAPFEST!!!
What the he!! is wrong with you people? Stop hating on Madonna....you all are a bunch of jealous pigs. Stop wasting your time to read these articles then if you dont like certain people! Why even waste your time to leave a comment? Get a life!
The Big TV Controversy! What did Barbara Walters really mean?
This conglomeration of all things stupid and evil will be a huge...HUGE flop. I cant wait to see the big failure. Madonnna, go strait to hell.
LOL...this is a joke right? All these movie stars precious little treasures are so multi talented. Must we endure these continual nightmares?
PS...*POOT* n ya face madge.
hahahaha.....how true
