Some days I wake up and ask myself, “What sort of douchy things is Madonna going to do today?” And no matter what I predict, she always manages to out-douche herself. A great example: Madonna doesn’t give a crap about any of her neighbors’ general peace and sanity. She’s turned part of her New York City apartment into a recording studio, and is making a racket day and night – causing misery for the other tenants. Can you imagine having to listen to that noise?
Guy Ritchie isn’t the only one who can’t stand living with Madonna. Neighbors in Madge’s swanky Central Park West building have been complaining about noise from the pop star’s new music studio, which she carved out of a seventh-floor apartment she battled to buy. Madge sued her co-op board at the Harperley Hall apartments last year when they tried to block her from purchasing an extra apartment in the building, where she already has a residence on the 12th floor.
She won the fight and nabbed the apartment for $7 million in April 2007, with plans to convert it into an office for Ritchie. Now that the pair have split, Madonna has turned the space into a music studio. With all the practicing she’s been doing for her current tour, neighbors have gotten several rude awakenings.
“They asked her for a schedule of when she would practice, but she hasn’t adhered to it,” spills our building spy. “The music is playing at all hours of the night, and the noise from the drums and the bass blares through the walls.” A rep for the singer said, “Madonna does not stay up till all hours of the night … so I can’t imagine there is any validity to this story. She needs her rest. She’s a working girl, you know.”

Who to believe, the multiple tenants who’ve complained or the one self-entitled diva who denies ever doing anything wrong. So hard to decide. I would guess that if neighbors in Madonna’s posh apartment building are calling the Daily News to complain, they’re probably pretty desperate. It’s probably safe to assume that they’ve tried rationale measures like talking to the building’s management. Whether someone’s blaring music loudly at night isn’t really a matter of opinion – either they are or they aren’t.
Most buildings have quiet hours after 10, which means Madonna should theoretically be silent. Considering they’ve already resorted to calling New York tabloids, I’m guessing Madonna’s neighbors will next be calling the police.
