Madonna: Expect Nothing
Twice-divorced Madonna told Oprah: “To be brave is to love someone unconditionally, without expecting anything in return. To just give. That takes courage, because we don’t want to fall on our faces or leave ourselves open to hurt.” She’s not a Material Girl after all.
Joan Collins: Don’t Share the Same Bathroom.
She’s been married five times, but the last one seems to have stuck. Her advice: Never use the same bathroom. “We’re never in the bathroom together. In fact, I think it’s important to have separate bathrooms.” It sounds trite on the surface.

The woman has a point, people. Just saying.
