I mean, other than the fact that she looks part robot, part mannequin (which must be the heavily photoshopped look they were going for)... I actually like her in the bunny ears for this one!  And there's something modern and fun about the colors and visual effect of the shot that I really like!

What do you think?

Can this possibly be true?  They're saying that Madonna's current boy toy, "Jesus Luz" will join her in shoot for Louis Vuitton shot by Steven Meisel.  It was reported in the Cut... which is reputable, but their source?  Made in Brazil?

Jesus Luz first joined Madonna in that raunchy W Magazine spread in March.  And apparently she couldn't quit.  So he ended up following her to New York and basically everywhere else she went.  I thought they were "off again"... but who knows.

What is it about a Madonna and Jesus hook-up that just seems so very, very wrong?  You couldn't make this stuff up!!!

Looks like Madonna's in for another go... I mean why not?  The last one got tons of press- and she and Marc have a little mutual love fest going on.  It's always good for the shoot when the behind the scenes chemistry is good.  Meisel's doing the pictures again... and I can't wait to see them!

So rumors are flying that it's a wrap on the Louis Vuitton x Madonna photoshoot by Steven Meisel.  Apparently, it went down on Friday.  If you do a shoot in Argentina (like the Coppolas) it's possible to keep secrets.  But when you're shooting right here in LA, you know word's gonna get out!

As Rock the Trend pointed out- here's so much information available that you can can almost picture how it probably went down and can practically visualize the end result.

Here's what's going around the blogosphere:

• Steven Meisel took the pics, not Mert & Marcus (click here to reminise) or Alas & Piggott- as had been rumored (WWD, last time Madge & Meisel worked together, was or the cover & spread in Vanity Fair May 2008.  The picture at the top of this post is from this spread as well.  They're old friends- who can forget his pictures in Madonna's infamous Sex Book!)

• it went down on Friday at the Cafe Figaro in Los Angeles- check out its cool old bar below (Read the post & the comments on Diva Report's post.)

• Meisel likes the French look of the Figaro Bistro check out the pics he shot for the September 2007 Vogue Magazine titled Paris, Je T'aime (check out all the pics at artemislives for foto decadent)

• Garren did her hair.   You can see what it looked like in the picture below from Friday night after the shoot and a little worship at the Kabbalah Center.  According to Drowned Madonna- Garren worked on the VF May 2008 shoot too!  (More pics at Madge-Tribe)

• it was styled by Marie Amelie Sauve so you know it's gonna have a French vibe- Sauve's the fashion editor for Vogue Paris and Balenciaga consultant (stylerumor)-

It'll be really interesting to see how close the shoot is to the image I've got in my head!
