Madonna issues sweet birthday tribute to son Rocco
Many celebrities have strange or memorble first meetings with each other, but Madonna takes the prize for weirdest first impression when she met her one-time co-star Al Pacino.
When the Queen of Pop met the actor in the 1970s, she allegedly put her tongue in his ear, according to her former roommate Whitley Hill.
In the biography Madonna: A Rebel Life, which comes out Tuesday, Hill shared that her dad, Ed Setrakian, introduced the Godfather star to the singer at dinner in New York City.
After Setrakian drove everyone home, Pacino allegedly said: “That friend of your daughter’s stuck her tongue in my ear. When we were driving home, she leaned over and stuck her tongue in my ear!”
Hill claims her father called her after that night to tell her the story.

She also told biographer Mary Gabriel that Madonna had “called attention to her mouth” earlier in the night by slowly chewing gum in front of Pacino.
The performers later went on to work together in 1990’s movie, Dick Tracy – but it seems they didn’t get on.
The Vogue singer would go on to call Pacino a “gross pig” in a behind-the-scenes book on the film.
She claimed to author Mike Bonifer that whenever the actor put his prosthetics and suit on, “he was always smacking my butt and my face.”
“I hated him, I loathed him, I was disgusted with him,” she added.

Madonna added that off-camera, she’d always try to move away from him.
However, she said he’d “always grab me and go, ‘Get over here!’ which is exactly what happened in the movie.”
But despite the on-set antics, Madonna, 65, called Pacino, 83, “well-mannered and gentlemanly” in real life.
Gabriel’s 880-page book covers Madonna’s entire career, her estrangement from brother Christopher Ciccone, her “Madge” nickname and more.
The author thinks the singer is destined for a “rebirth” following her June health scare.
He told Variety earlier in the month that she may “surprise [fans] once again” with her upcoming Celebration Tour.

The Celebration Tour was originally announced in January with 35 show dates across the world.
After a stunning reaction from her fanbase, though, the tour is now expected to run for 78 shows starting in London on October 15th.
It was initially meant to begin in the US on July 15th but Madonna suffered a “serious bacterial infection” and was rushed to ICU in mid-June with her family “fearing the worst” at one point.
