Madonna’s Son Rocco Bar-Mitvahed
Can you picture Madonna and Guy Ritchie dancing the hora?
This is what one can only hope happened after their son Rocco was bar-mitzvahed on July 13 at the Kabbalah Center in New York.
Madonna celebrated her boy’s transition to manhood by posting a picture on Instagram. “We finish the last letter of the Torah for Rocco”s Bar Mitzva,” the caption reads. “Lucky 13! Happy Birthday! Potential……….responsibility!!!!”
The party train continued on to [Bklyn Beast,]( (http://ohnotheydidnt.livejournal.com/79571227.html ‘Bklyn Beast,’) New York’s Parkour training ground.
The diva, who gave birth to Rocco in August 2000, has been a student of Kabbalah since the 1990s.
The jury is still out on whether or not this can actually be considered a bar-mitzvah (neither Madonna nor Guy Ritchie are Jewish) but in the meantime — Mazel Tov, Rocco!

This is a moment of great uncertainty for the news media, for the Jewish people, and for our sacred democracy. It is a time of confusion and declining trust in public institutions.

With no paywall or subscriptions, the Forward is entirely supported by readers like you. Every dollar you give this Passover is invested in the future of the Forward — and telling the American Jewish story fully and fairly.
The Forward doesn’t rely on funding from institutions like governments or your local Jewish federation. There are thousands of readers like you who give us $18 or $36 or $100 each month or year.
