Madonna's brother Christopher Ciccone talked for the first time last week about the reported rift between them.
We asked Her Madgesty's creative sibling whether it was true they'd had a falling-out when she didn't invite him to art-direct her last tour, as he had in the past.
"Our relationship is in very good standing; we speak to each other all the time," the jewel-eyed designer told us. "You know that every large family has its ups and downs, and we are no exception."
Besides, Ciccone doesn't need his look-alike sis to toss him any work. He's part owner of the West Hollywood restaurant Central and is designing a celebrity suite for producer Ryan Black's Oscar bash at the Pacific Design Center.
As for speculation that Madonna's devotion to kabbalah, a mystical branch of Judaism, fueled the now-healed split, Ciccone says it can't be: He's into it, too.
"I practice kabbalah," he told us, "in my own way."
