Get ready now, Utah. Her Madgesty is coming!

Madonnatribe is reporting that Madonna will be premiering her new movie, I Am Because We Are, at the Sundance Film Festival this January.

The documentary was directed by Madonna. It focuses on the poor, full of suffering lives of Malawi children.

Malawi is the African country where her Madgesty adopted little David recently.

I Am Because We Are shows how AIDS has effected the lives of Malawi’s children, since many many of them lost their parents due to the disease and have to live on the streets.

The documentary also highlights the work that Madonna’s organization, Raising Malawi, has been doing in the country.

      I still think she's a fake, but I do applaud her efforts to help those less fortunate. At least she's trying to do something positive with her fame. Madonna needs to sit Unfitney down and have a little chat…

    27. Quit says – reply to this


      27

      Why does she look so bad? She looks like she is in her 70's and smells of moth balls. Either the hard party life has caught up with her or she's purging and on the sauce. Something is not right about her. And I love women like this that think they always have to help the minorities to get more attention. I still say it is a gimmick to make people buy her "Urban" album. This isn't a coincidence..

      Thank the Gods that she won't be acting in this documentary. Oh wait, maybe she will by pretending that she really cares…

      I'm pretty sure her film "Filth and Wisdom" is the one that will be at Sundance…unless she's bringing two films to Sundance this year.

      of course it highlights her good work - I knew she could not just do a do without somehow glorifying herself. Haircut looks good tho.

      31

      dear perez,

      "affect" is the verb.

      "effect" is the noun.

      learn the difference.

      PEREZ, the entire world is not gay like you ok? the only reason why you struggle to oust non-gay celebrities like Zac Efron and Jessica Biel is because of your insecurities as a fat, gay slob. You are such a douchebag. Stop trying to force people to be what they are not.
      ASSHOLE!!!!!

    35. Fraulein_steve says – reply to this

      I cringe when I read the misuse of the words "affect" and "effect".

      How touching that Madonna has finally discovered the poor, suffering people of Malawai. Didn't she not know they were poor and suffering 25 years ago when she was working so hard to make herself filthy rich and famous? I guess its all about what you focus on.

      Nice to see Madonna looking good. She looks like a really beautiful woman. Not the terminator-style hard face we've seen a lot of lately. Apart from the hair, which has clearly been fried into oblivion. As for the new album, so long as it's not wannabe-Nelly Furtado I'm looking forward to it.

      I love it how somebody like Madonna who tries to help people then someone like you tries to bring her down.

      Because you are here sitting on the computer hating rather then supporting this cause.

      57

      Madonna is only a few years younger than me, but I'd kill to have her figure. Her husband is a handsome man too. People diss Madonna all the time, but she has been a MAJOR star with a string of hits that has lasted over 25 years. The same kids putting her down now will find themselves in 10 or 15 years respecting her. Why? Because she will still be showing up in the paper, still selling out concerts, and still make music that hits the charts.

      Do we even have to guess that even though this movie is a documentary that it will be the most horribly filmed documentary you ever saw in your life because the "Madonnas" are attactched to it? This woman and her putz husband have not ONE shred of talent in ANYTHING, so what I`d like to know is who the FUCK keeps buying into their absolute SHIT!???

      75

      Oh great, another rich white woman pointing out the failings of another African counry. Whatever. Madonna can try to do as many "good deeds" as she wants, but it will not get her salavation in the Kingdom of God. Her fate in hell is sealed.

      Also, why do I get the feeling she is trying to "buy" a African country? She is opening orphanages that are teaching African children the false "Jewish" religion of Kaballah. Most Malawi are Christian or Muslim. Oh, her stop in hell is going to be hot!

      Madonna=hideous arms….pasty skin…..bad hair….cant sing…..cant dance….cant act….mediocre looks….eating disordered body..what exactly is her relevance?

    77. Harry says – reply to this


      77

      The world mostly ignores the fate of these children, but it's really awful. They had their parents one day, and then they didn't have them the next, and what could they do, where could they go? The money that is tossed away in one day in the world would rescue them all — but nobody cares. Madonna cares, obviously, living up to her name. Saving children from misery and death is the real deal.

      80

      It's almost like you have to respond to the knuckle heads. So, here we go…
      First off, Madonna is REAL and using her celebrity to raise awareness. She does it just by being her. No matter what people say, people still want to hear what she has to say. So Bravo to her to getting the word out about the horrors in the world. And by the way, if the video for "American Life" was released today, it would be ALL THE RAGE, because the WAR SUCKS!! As far as "Amerika" not liking her anymore, it's because the AmeriKan public has little if any taste. Of course she sells in Europe and Asia because they have taste over there. In the US… MUSIC STATIONS ALWAYS PLAY THE SAME SONG! Crazy bitches… just give the heffa some RESPECT!

    81. Gwen says – reply to this


      81

      Re: jimmyjazz – It's a nickname. I think her fans believe they're on the same level that she's elevated herself to, and calling her Madge reinforces that belief. Calling her that makes Maddy baby their friend, or something?

    82. Tamzin says – reply to this


      82

      What the hell is wrong with you Westerners? Y'all think ALL African kids are orphans? How's lil' David an orphan when he has a father (who is alive and kicking!!!). And how is it that some French 'aide' workers can take (read: kidnap) a 100 African children to Europe claiming the're orphans?? Y'all are SICK. Slavery is NOT dead. But this time you will pay for it. Hands OFF out kids!!!

      Fuck those Malawi children. She should have done a documentary about me being sick of her for about 20 years. When will she go away?????????????
      Is it not laughable that she thinks she is so relevant?
      I look at her and laugh after I wonder if Bette Davis has come back from the dead!

      seriously?
      You should learn the correct usage of affect and effect if you're going to write a blog read by millions.
      You've screwed it up a number of times the past few weeks.
      This article is another example of it.
      Maybe you should have someone proofread for you.
