traditional pub near their London home.
The couple bought The Punchbowl in Mayfair from Greg Forman, the son of
gangster Freddie Foreman, for $5 million.
A source close to the star said: "Madonna absolutely adores the pub. They
pop in regularly to get away from it all. Madonna loves the beer and Guy
meets all his pals down there.
"They have been desperate to own this place for a long time and have been
making offers on it for ages. Now it has finally happened. It's only around
the corner from their West End home. She will be the most glamorous landlady
alive."
Meanwhile Madonna isn't scared of turning 50.
The 'Holiday' singer - whose new album 'Hard Candy' is released worldwide in
April - isn't worried about reaching the landmark age on August 16, because
it is an excuse for a huge party.
She said: "Turning 50 is a landmark for everybody. Everybody keeps
mentioning it, but I just see it as another excuse to have a birthday
party!"
Madonna - who is famous for her love of yoga and other meditative practices
- also said she feels stronger and healthier now than she ever has before.
She added: "I feel stronger now than, maybe, 20 years ago - but I think your
physicality is connected to your consciousness so if your mind is strong,
your body will be strong."
Madonna already has her own personal gym, now a bar, what's next?
