Madonna on Her Divorce: 'I'm Sad'

Madonna is speaking out for the first time since her divorce decree from Guy Ritchie!

The material mom tells the Associated Press that while breaking up is hard to do, her heavy workload "provides a distraction that keeps me going."

She is currently on tour and promoting 'I Am Because We Are,' her documentary about children orphaned by AIDS in the African nation.

"I'm sad about my personal life, but I feel very blessed and very lucky that I have the opportunity to do what I do in my professional life," Madonna said in an interview with the AP Sunday. "It would be horrible if I was just thinking about getting a divorce and had nothing to do."
