MADONNA has had to make some serious sacrifices to help her boyfriend, Brazilian model Jesus Luz, land his own record deal!

Luz has signed with the Holiday singer’s former label Warners and will release his first single, We Came From Light, in May.

But there was a condition!

Madonna had to give permission for her tracks Vogue and Like A Prayer to be licensed for a big advertising campaign in the US.

“Madonna was determined to give Jesus all the help she can. She holds a lot of sway at Warners, where she had a deal until very recently,” a source told British newspaper The Sun.

“But getting him on the books wasn’t completely plain sailing. There was a little give and take between her and execs, but a compromise was eventually settled upon.”

Madge, 51, will even pay for Luz’s studio and recording expenses, and has called on old friends to help out with the track, including legendary remixer Victor Calderone.

“Madonna really wants Jesus’s career to take off,” said the insider. “She’s been going through her Filofax and putting him in contact with as many of her influential pals as she can.

“She’s worked with Victor for a very long time and he understands just what she likes. Having him rejig Jesus’s tracks will give them a cool cachet which is essential to building a clubland buzz.”
