Tattle: Holy Kabbalah! Madonna's plumber in hot water

TATTLE'S WATER bill is usually around $25 a month.

Madonna's is a wee bit more.

Granted, she has a bigger house. But while a Brita filter and tap water has been good enough for Tattle, Madonna's water is blessed by a higher authority.

According to Britain's News of the World, Madonna fills the central heating system of her 10BR London mansion with Kabbalah water, at a cost of more than $7,500.

Imagine the sturm and drain then when a plumber recently arrived to fix a faulty radiator.

"The housekeeper was in a flap and told them it was blessed water and they could not drain it," said an inside source.

"But they insisted they had to change a broken valve. It took almost an hour before she gave in and allowed them to put the water in steel buckets, pleading with them not to spill a drop."

News of the World said that Madonna's thirst for Kabbalah was behind her split from Guy Ritchie. He reportedly cancelled an order to fill their pool with $15,000 worth of allegedly holy water.

The bride wore a jumpsuit?

Mexican-born actress Fernanda Romero ("Drag Me to Hell") is being dragged before a judge.

She and her husband, Kent Ross, were arrested Friday at their separate Los Angeles homes and charged with marriage fraud, the U.S. attorney's office said. They contend Romero paid Ross to marry her in 2005 so that she could become a U.S. resident.

Hey, that's better for the economy than sneaking under a fence in Arizona.

Authorities said the two never lived together and Romero (aka Maria Fernanda Romero Martinez) submitted phony documents with her residency application.

An investigation began after Romero's ex-boyfriend, fashion photographer Markus Klinko, ratted her out and told immigration authorities her marriage was a sham. The couple started dating after Romero and Ross were "married" and we will surmise that she dumped him.

If convicted, Romero and Ross could be sentenced to up to five years in federal prison.

"Immigration benefit fraud is a serious crime," said Miguel Unzueta, an Immigration and Customs Enforcement special agent in charge in Los Angeles. "Not only does it potentially rob deserving immigrants of benefits they rightfully deserve, it also undermines the integrity of our nation's legal immigration system."
