Madonna`s toyboy justifies his love
MADONNA`S new fella has spoken for the first time of his love for the star - saying she`s "just a woman like all the others".
Dancer Brahim Zaibat, 24, explained: "She`s an extraordinary artist and world famous, of course, but a woman above all."
The Frenchman recalled charming the pop queen, 52, with the down-to-earth opener: "Hi, how are you?" He adds: "It wasn`t like meeting a monster! She wasn`t the first well-known female singer I`d met, you know. I`m not saying things have gone very fast since then, but things have happened in order."
Asked if he was a fan of Madonna at school he said: `It wasn`t the kind of sound I had on my iPod. But I`ve since pretty much listened to all she`s done."
The relationship kicked off in New York five weeks ago when Brahim danced for Madonna, whose hits include Justify My Love.
Eyebrows are raised as she is eight years older than Brahim`s mum. And he is a devout Muslim while Madonna follows Kabbalah, a form of Judaism.
Brahim speaks just a little English and Madonna doesn`t utter a word of French, but he insists they have a future together.
He told Grazia magazine: "I`m learning a great deal. I`m an apprentice!`
Brahim still lives in a council flat in Lyon, eastern France and insists he won`t cash in on his relationship - unlike Madge`s last boyfriend, 24-year-old Brazilian JESUS LUZ.
