Now that Madonna has her sinewy guns safely wrapped around that $40 million East 81st Street townhouse, she must turn her attention to the pressing issue of renovations. Surely one cannot expect her to move in before three or four of those fourteen bedrooms have been properly converted into plush storage space for her collection of bustiers, bunny ears, and orphans! We're hearing from a source close to the project that Madge has chosen the architects at Sawyer/Berson for the task (they're well versed in luxury renovations and count Jerry Seinfeld among their clients). We called the firm for comment and they promptly hung up on us — being fluent in Madonna-level PR, we'll take that as a solid confirmation.
