Brother: Madonna Doubted Carlos Leon's "Intelligence" Before Having Lourdes

Madonna initially wanted basketball player Dennis Rodman to father her first child, her brother Christopher Ciccone reports in his new tell-all book, according to the New York Post.

The singer, now 49, also considered Melrose Place star John Enos, Ciccone claims, before she got pregnant with trainer Carlos Leon and gave birth to their daughter Lourdes in 1996.

Madonna, though, was "not sure [Carlos] fulfills the intelligence requirement" to father her child, Ciccone writes.

Leon recently was spotted at the Kabbalah Centre in NYC with Lourdes, Madonna and her two children with husband Guy Ritchie.

(Madonna and Ritchie are currently denying a divorce is pending despite attorney consultations and her late-night visits with Alex Rodriguez.)

Meanwhile, former baseball player Jose Canseco has told Us Weekly: "[Madonna] wanted to get married and have a child with me " she wanted a Cuban child."

(See Madonna's most controversial moments.)

Ciccone's Life With My Sister Madonna, out next week, also dishes on other Madonna's relationships.

He says her husband Ritchie is homophobic and "swells noticeably" when around gay men.

Ciccone claims Madonna's first husband, Sean Penn, forced him to be "blood brothers" " and sliced their thumbs to exchange blood. Years later, the actor asked Ciccone, who's gay, if he has AIDS.

As for Madonna's fling with John F. Kennedy Jr.?

Ciccone reports that Madonna said, "I feel like I am repeating Marilyn [Monroe] and the president."

(See all of Madonna's hook-ups.)

Madonna also has "an 8-by-12-foot photo of herself in S&M gear and lying on a bed with dead animals in her home," the Post reports, citing the book.

It's "the creepiest thing I've ever seen," Ciccone writes.

Check out the new issue of Us Weekly available now, for the full story on how the Material Girl lured A-Rod away from his newborn, why a friend says he's "totally brainwashed" by kaballah and how Madonna is thriving on the attention.

    I THINK MADONNA IS ONE OF THE MOST INTELLIGENT WOMEN AROUND TODAY. SHE HAD MADE MILLIONS W/HER MUSIC, LOOKS, ETC. HER DAUGHTER INHERITED BOTH HER PARENTS' LOOKS, & I DON'T BELIEVE THE RUMORS ABOUT HER & A-ROD. AS FOR CANSECO, HE'S BEEN WASHED UP & LOOKING TO MAKE SOME $$$ W/HIS TRASH BOOK. LOSER.

    And the outfit she wore in the "4 Minutes" video looks ridiculous. She is still pretty and in decent shape for her age but that outfit makes her look like an old hooker. Someone needs to be fired for that wardrobe pick. Should have asked your gay brother!

    She is still pretty cool. An old, grannyish kind of cool but cool nonetheless! Go Madonna, with your weirdness! You can't escape the fact you are a dominatrix goddess with strange fetishes no matter how many children books you write. You're still a freak! LOL

    i don't hate madonna, but i'm picking up the book. i also think she knew about this book for a long while, and that she's also to blame for this falling out with chris.

    For all you big macho dudes who are always saying that you would do Madonnna... She would never in a million years give any of you the time of day. Madonna has her own strap on to bend over all of you big macho men and make all of you scream like little biotches.

    Even though I'm a big Madonna fan I'm still going to read it and take it with a good pinch of salt. Also, I don't blame him either if there is any truth to as to how she treated him after she met/married Ricci. I'm also curious as to how the rest of the family is reacting to him writing the book.
