33. Sean Penn beat her up, didn't he?
Tue Sep 25, 2012, 04:02 PM
Sep 2012

that was one of the reasons they split...

or am I thinking of someone else?

on edit: Yes, Sean Penn was an abusive partner that did terrible and violent things to her. I hope he has changed but I won't give him any special kisses and dump on Madonna to make her look like the bad guy.
