Madonna once gave her stamp of approval to Sam Rockwell’s dance moves.
On Wednesday, May 15, the Oscar winner’s longtime partner Leslie Bibb appeared on an episode of SiriusXM Let’s talk on camera with Kelly Ripawhere she told an amusing anecdote about the actor and one of his many talents.
Bibb, 49, recalled for Ripa, 53, the couple headed from the Vanity Fair Oscar party to another “secret” party, where they inevitably met the pop icon. Bibb explained that she “sat down[d] to the bar”, because she was hungry and her legs were “killing”.
But while Bibb was getting some much-needed rest, Madonna walked up “dressed in this leather outfit and [had] these two boys on leashes”.
“You were at a leash party,” Ripa quickly retorted, and Bibb added, “I feel like maybe they had a smooch or something.”

As Palm Royale the actress continued her story, she admitted that she was amazed and that she wanted to approach the “Vogue” singer.
“I turn around and say, ‘Hi Madonna, I’m Leslie. This is my friend Kristin.’ I think I scared her. She shook my hand. I just came in so hot and she was gone,” Bibb explained.

But after her impromptu introduction, Bibb danced with Rockwell, then bowed and left the dance floor.
“Madonna was watching him dance with me and she said, ‘That’s the best dancer in this room,’ and she danced next to Sam,” the actress said. She said that later someone introduced the singer (65) and Rockwell (55).
“She started dancing with Sam and he was twirling her ass, and then all these men were like, ‘Oh, Madonna’s dancing with your man. You have to go inside.’ ”
“And I said, ‘She can have it. It’s Madonna. This is epic. This is an icon.’”
“It was so exciting to watch him spin Madonna like a dreidel,” Ripi said.
