Fifty-year-old Madonna is in the process of obtaining a divorce from her previous beau, film director Guy Ritchie. In the interim, she has taken up with Brazilian model Jesus Luz, 20.

Luz's professional credits include an appearance on the late-night Brazilian TV series "Hostel," which stars three women in a series of fantasies-come-to-life.

Luz's appearance on the racy TV series showed him as a hapless boyfriend who goes to a party with his girlfriend, passes out, and then wakes up to find her en flagrante delicto with another man.

"Hostel" director Cande Salles praised the model's performance, saying he "acted very well. He is excellent.”

According to Stuff New Zealand, Madonna invited Luz to come with her on the Sao Paolo leg of her latest world tour. New York Magazine also reported on the tryst, which supposedly began when Madonna met Luz on the set of her shoot for W magazine.

According to several unnamed sources, Madonna and Luz aren't a serious item, although they apparently spent New Year's Eve together. Madonna has made no comment on Luz's involvement with televised adult entertainment.
