This is the no-holds-barred photoshoot where Madonna is said to have met Brazilian model Jesus Luz, who she is now rumoured to be romancing.

And judging by the pictures, it’s clear to see the newly single singer wasted no time getting acquainted with the 22-year-old poser.

In one shot the 50-year-old is seen locked in a passionate embrace with a topless Luz, while in another the model is pictured naked as Madonna looks on.

Other images reveal that Luz has his full name tattooed across the top of his back and in another the pair romp together on a hotel bed.

Madonna is featured in a 46-page spread in the March edition of American magazine W, clad in a Victoria Beckham black dress with white-trimmed sleeves and neckline.

She was photographed in a hotel room in Rio de Janeiro in December by celebrated photographer Steven Klein.

Madonna was apparently so enamoured with the handsome Latino, she asked him to accompany her for the remainder of the South America leg of her Sticky & Sweet Tour.

Earlier this month the couple were spotted dining out together in New York, which has fuelled speculation they are an item.

Since being linked to Madonna, it’s perhaps no surprise Luz’s modelling career has been given a huge boost.

His former agent Sergios Mattos, who runs 40 Graus Models, told the New York Post recently that Luz stopped taking his calls after meeting Madonna and has now signed to the more high-profile Ford Models.

Mattos told Brazilian website Glamurama.com.br: ‘He stopped answering his phone, his mother quit her job… But I wish him the best.

‘And now I have a new Jesus [Spanish model Jesus Perez]. This is a much better Jesus, and he’s not a fan of Madonna’s.’

A source close to model also told Glamurama Jesus had raised his modelling rates since meeting Madonna.

The source said: ‘He was asking for some $135,000 a show. He did the same job last year for a mere $225.

‘A lot of people are contacting him but because he keeps raising his rates, they are changing their minds.’

Luz is the second man to be linked to Madonna since she split from her now ex-husband Guy Ritchie in October.

Madonna denied reports last year she was involved with New York Yankees player Alex Rodriguez, who divorced his wife Cynthia last summer.

Who still wears short shorts? Jessica Simpson.

Despite scrutiny over her weight, the singer wore daisy dukes — which she famously flaunted in 2005 while promoting The Dukes of Hazard — at The Kohl Center in Madison, Wisconsin, on Friday.

Simpson seemed in better spirits than a show Thursday night in Grand Rapids, Mich.

She wiped away tears, forgot lyrics and dedicated a song to her sister Ashlee for “when I feel like walking off the stage.”

“Jessica had an off night,” her rep told Usmagazine.com. “She’s a perfectionist and wanted to start some songs over. She always wants to give the best performance for her fans.”

A day after Chris Brown was booked on felony criminal threats charges, Wrigley gum has suspended ads featuring the 19-year-old singer.

“Wrigley is concerned by the serious allegations made against Chris Brown,” a company spokesperson tells Usmagazine.com. “We believe Mr. Brown should be afforded the same due process as any citizen.

“However, we have made the decision to suspend the current advertising featuring Brown and any related marketing communications until the matter is resolved,” the statement continued.

Brown turned himself in to Los Angeles police Sunday night for an alleged battery on a woman.

Us has confirmed the woman is his 20-year-old girlfriend Rihanna. (Both pulled out of Sunday’s Grammys at the last minute.)

The case is being presented to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office; additional charges may be filed.

Brown — who has hired lawyer Mark Geragos (who defended convicted murderer Scott Peterson and Michael Jackson during his child molestation trial) — is due in court March 5.

Singer Chris Brown has turned himself in to Los Angeles Police in connection to a domestic violence felony criminal threat incident, Usmagazine.com has confirmed.

He was driven in a black Escalade Sunday and was lying down in the backseat, a source tells Us.

“He turned himself in around 7 p.m. to one of our stations and is being interviewed by detectives now,” officer Karen Smith tells Us.

Brown, 19, was taken into custody at 6:30 p.m. and was booked for criminal threat at 7:41 p.m. He posted $50,000 bail and was released.

The case is being presented to the Los Angeles County District Attorney’s office; additional charges may be filed.

He is due in court March 5.

Brown is being investigated for an incident that occurred early Sunday morning near Hancock Park in L.A.

An unidentified woman phoned 911 and claimed she got into a fight with the singer and he attacked her.

Police say the woman had visible injuries. When officers arrived, they found the victim, but Brown had already left the scene, police say.

Both Brown and his girlfriend Rihanna pulled out of Sunday’s Grammy Awards at the last minute.

[Updated 9:21 p.m.] R&B singer Chris Brown has been booked tonight on suspicion of making felony criminal threats in connection with an incident involving his girlfriend, pop singer Rihanna, according to Los Angeles Police Department sources familiar with the case.

Brown was booked at the Wilshire Division station and posted $50,000 bail, sources said. He left the station before 9 p.m.

Los Angeles police said earlier they planned to detain Brown for questioning on an alleged domestic violence assault. In an updated statement tonight, police said, additional charges may be filed against Brown when the case is presented to the Los Angeles County district attorney’s office. Brown listed his residence as Washington, Va.

[Updated 7:25 p.m.] Brown arrived at the Wilshire Division police station before 7:15 p.m., accompanied by his attorney Mark Geragos and Geragos’ investigator, Scott Ross. The pair drove into a parking lot behind the police station on Venice Boulevard just east of La Brea Avenue in a black Cadillac Escalade. They entered through a back door where a posted sign read “authorized personnel only.” Police are expected to release a statement later this evening

Both Brown and Rihanna canceled their performances at tonight’s Grammy Awards.

The alleged incident was reported about 12:30 a.m. Sunday in Hancock Park.

Brown and Rihanna, whose full name is Robyn Rihanna Fenty, were apparently in a car together and got into an argument on North June Street, according to a Los Angeles Police Department statement. Brown stopped the car, the two got out, and the argument escalated, according to police.

A witness called 911, but Brown was gone when officers arrived at the scene. The woman suffered visible injuries and identified Brown as her attacker, according to police.

Brown and Rihanna had appeared together Saturday night at Clive Davis’s pre-Grammy gala in Beverly Hills.

Shortly before the Grammy show began at 5 p.m. at Staples Center, Grammy officials issued a statement saying, “We have just been informed Rihanna will not be attending tonight’s 51st Grammy Awards. Rihanna will not be performing. We are sorry to see she is unable to join us this evening.”

A publicist for the Barbados-born star, who sold more digital song downloads than any other in 2008 with nearly 10 million tracks, said Sunday night, “Rihanna is well. Thank you for your concern and support.”

Her song “Disturbia,” which she’d been scheduled to perform at the ceremony, was the sixth best-selling digital track of the year. She was replaced by veteran soul singer Al Green, who was accompanied by country singer-guitarist Keith Urban.

Brown’s record label spokesman did not respond to The Times’ request for comment. His whereabouts were unknown as the Grammy show began. Brown finished 2008 as the fourth-best-selling artist in the digital realm, posting 6.8 million tracks sold, according to Nielsen SoundScan.

Less that a week after Jerry Springer announced that would not be back to host the 4th season of America’s Got Talent, NBC announced that Mr Mariah Carey aka Nick Cannon will be filling his shoes according to Variety.

That is def an interesting choice to go with Judges Sharon Osbourne, Piers Morgan and David Hasselhoff. It will be interesting to see how it all turns out.

Personally I think he will do an OK job, but just not sure how well he will mesh with the others how are already on the show?
