London, Sep 2 (IANS) Pop queen Madonna admits that she was attracted to ex-husbands Sean Penn and Guy Ritchie because they were ‘creative’.
‘I am and was attracted to very creative people which is why I married Sean Penn and Guy Ritchie, very talented directors, and they both encouraged me as a director to do what I did. They were both very supportive,’ femalefirst.co.uk quoted her as saying.
The singer, who is all set to release her directorial venture ‘W.E.’, admits movies inspired her to become an artist.
‘I’ve always loved film, all my life. As a child I was always inspired by movies and I always had it in the back of my mind that I wanted to make one… Making films is really hard in the first place,’ she said.
‘You have to believe in your subject matter and be passionate about it because there will be challenges along the way. You have to be prepared like the captain of a ship, no matter what happens, you have got to keep going. So your spiritual foundation has to be strong,’ she added.
