Are Madge’s pals helping toyboy?

Madonna’s high-powered connections in the fashion industry are lending a helping hand to her alleged toyboy lover Jesus Luz, according to reports. Sources have claimed that pals of the 50-year-old singer were playing a key role in boosting her 22-year-old Brazilian boyfriend’s career.

Marc Jacobs, the creative director of the prestigious Louis Vuitton label, was alleged to have penned ‘a letter of support for Jesus’ work permit’ to let him to stay in the country.

“Marc campaigned for Jesus, saying he is highly talented and a necessity to the label,” the New York Post quoted a source as saying.

Women’s Wear Daily reported that Luz would feature in the Dolce & Gabbana’s fall-winter menswear campaign.

The source added: “All these fashion lines are hiring Jesus as a favour to Madonna. As long as he can legally work in the US, they can be together.”

But Madonna’s rep said the Queen of Pop was ‘not at all involved in managing the career of Jesus Luz. His Dolce job was arranged through his agents’.
