Then, Gervais poked fun at the pop icon as he introduced her as a presenter, giving the crowd hints that "she's always in Vogue, she's a Material Girl, and she's just 'Like A Virgin,'" before coughing sarcastically.

Madonna was quick to respond when she arrived at the mic, saying "If I'm just like a virgin, Ricky, why don't you come over here and do something about it," before adding, "I haven't kissed a girl in quite a few years, at least not on TV." more on this story

90210 Star Sues Co-Star

(TMZ) Brian Austin Green has declared war on a former "90210" co-star who allegedly screwed him out of $200,000 ... and the accused happens to be the mother of his 9-year-old kid.

B.A.G. has filed a lawsuit against Vanessa Marcil-Giovanazzo -- the chick who played Donna's troublemaking cousin on the show -- claiming he let her BORROW a ton of money back when they were dating ... but she NEVER paid him back.

In the lawsuit, filed in L.A. County Superior Court, Green claims he fired off check after check after check to Vanessa ... but insisted "the monies were not gifts" and she promised to pay him back.

Green claims in 2000 -- BEFORE he knocked up Vanessa -- he loaned her up to $50,000 at a time ... and in total, lent her more than $200,000.

In the docs, Green says each time he loaned her money, he and Vanessa agreed that she would pay back the money "promptly" whenever he asked for it. Green says he came calling in November 2011 ... but she refuses to fork over the dough.

Green is demanding all of his cash back -- plus additional unspecified damages.

Calls to Vanessa's rep have not been returned. more on this story

Beyonce Hospital Suite Nightly Rate Revealed

(TMZ) The lavish hospital executive suite where Beyonce gave birth is a lot cheaper than you think ... at least it's a lot cheaper than we thought.

An official at Lenox Hill Hospital in NYC tells TMZ ... there are 7 suites in the VIP section where Beyonce gave birth. Each executive suite costs between $700 and $800 a night.

In Beyonce's case, the official wouldn't be specific, but we're told she had at least 4 suites -- which could explain the 4 flat-screen TVs. So Beyonce probably paid $3,200 a night -- she can afford it.

Storage War Over Late Grease Star Jeff Conaway's Stuff

(TMZ) "Grease" star Jeff Conaway's been dead 8 months -- but TMZ has learned, there's a three-way war brewing over the stuff he left behind ... and right now, there's no clear winner.

Jeff's estranged wife filed legal docs in L.A. County Superior Court -- claiming she's the rightful heir to a bunch of stuff Jeff had squirreled away in an L.A. storage facility ... and she wants access to it, stat.

But the facility is refusing to let her in -- because according to legal correspondence filed with the court, Jeff's old girlfriend is ALSO vying for all the stuff inside the storage units ... citing a "living trust."

A rep for the storage facility tells TMZ, it's caught in the middle of a feud between an estranged wife and an ex-girlfriend. Since the facility doesn't know who is the rightful owner, it's refusing access to ANYONE ... until it gets the official word from the court.

Meanwhile, the storage company tells us, it has placed a lien on Jeff's estate -- for a total value of $3,600 -- claiming a storage payment hasn't been made since July, 2011.
