Madonna's brother Christopher Ciccone claims her ex-husband Sean Penn was "the love of her life."

The 'Material Girl' singer - who was married to "Mystic River" actor Sean from 1985 to 1989 - says she has never truly got over her split from Sean.

Cher is reportedly set to marry a man 26 years her junior. The 62-year-old singer is said to be planning to wed a 36-year-old Hell's Angel in Las Vegas later this year.

However, Cher - who has a residency at Caesar's Palace which alternates with Bette Midler's Vegas show - was forced to deny reports in America's National Enquirer the wedding had already taken place and she had made him sign a $600 million pre-nuptial agreement.
