Madonna's LaChappelle ban

Madonna, Gwen Stefani and Christina Aguilera have all been blacklisted by celebrity photographer David LaChappelle.

The photographer and hit music video producer allegedly found the three pop divas so difficult to work with he has refused to ever collaborate with the trio again because he hates them.

A source told the New York Post newspaper: David refused to work with Madonna, Gwen Stefani or Christina Aguilera. He hates them!

Something weird happened the last time he worked with Gwen, and he has cut her out.

On the flipside, LaChapelle loves Pamela Anderson, Courtney Love and Jennifer Lopez and is happy to offer them his services anytime.

The source revealed: Jennifer wanted him to work on her latest video for 'Do It Well'. She had to call him personally, but it worked out well. He loves her.

LaChapelle worked with Aguilera on her infamous video 'Dirrty' and with Stefani on the promo for her hit 'Rich Girl'.

He recently produced Amy Winehouse's video for 'Tears Dry On Their Own'.

LaChapelle famously dropped out of working on Madonna's 'Hung Up' video, branding the pop superstar nasty and cruel.

He said: I had written the scenario and was paid for the concept.

But when I started to analyse what made me happy or not, I understood that she was not the person with who I wished to collaborate.

She is nice when you are alone with her, but when you work for her, she can be very nasty. She is with people she employs. I didn't want to be tortured.

I don't have anything against difficulties, but that would have been unpleasant. I would not have had fun. There is cruelty in her.
