Fighting For Her Baby!

Filed under: Madonna > Baby Blabber > Legal Matters

wenn12566352.jpg

Madonna is due in Malawi next week in what may be the final (thankfully!) court ruling on whether or not she can finish adopting her son, adorable little David Banda.

Her Madjesty began the adoption process back in 2006 after first meeting David in a local orphanage in Malawi, one of the poorest countries in the world. It is estimated that there are approximately 1 million orphans in the area, many of which are unfortunately infected with the HIV virus!!!

In February of this year, Patricia Kaliati, the Malawian Information Minister, praised Madonna's efforts to raise awareness on gathering support for orphans in the area. She went on to say it would be wrong for the government to deny Madonna's adoption of little David.

Madonna will be flying in next Tuesday, as reported by a senior official at Lilongwe International Airport. The official confirmed that her jet was cleared for landing on April 8th.

The main controversy over the adoption deals with the current laws that ban non-residents from adopting children in Malawi. Thankfully, Malawi's government is amending its adoption laws.

She sang about it. Now, it's real. Madonna's keeping her baby!

    It's sad that both you and Madonna support someone that has done things that actually hurt the gay community. Instead of caring about what the actual candidate has done, you're so biased that you have to dig to find out what people they know say. Hillary has run anti-gay ads. Hillary supports Don't Ask, Don't Tell. Barack knows a homophobe, but he's the one that is harmful to gays? Good job, Perez.

    That child has a father. This adoption is a sham. There are so many children who NEED a home who are rotting away in an orphanage somewhere. Madonna should be ashamed of herself for stealing this child from his family.

  28. Blue says – reply to this


    28

    He's not her baby! The mother is reportedly still alive and wants her son back because he was adopted when in his father's care who misunderstood that they would never get their son back. It's all good and well to adopt children from third world countries (although why celebrities can be holding their new child within the week when it takes others years to go through the process is beyond me) but this child is not one of the '1 million' orphans. It's just plain wrong - maybe someone should give Madonna adoption papers for Lourdes written in a language she doesn't understand and deprive her of legal aid. So wrong.

HAS ANYBODY EVEN THOUGHT ABOUT THE KIDS THAT GOT RADIATION POISONING FROM CHERNOBYL AND HAVE LUMPS THE SIZE OF BASKETBALLS IN THEIR NECKS AND CAN'T EVEN MOVE AND HAVE NO ONE TO TAKE CARE OF THEM BESIDES A NURSE IN A RUN DOWN LITTLE HOUSE ? IF THE CELEBRITIES ARE GOING TO SHOW LOVE SHOW IT TO EVERYBODY NOT JUST CERTAIN RACES OF KIDS BECAUSE ANGELINA MADE IT COOL. IT IS NICE WHAT THEY ARE DOING BUT THEY FORGET OTHER KIDS NEED THEIR HELP TOO.

    AT LEAST WHEN MADONNA SEES KIDS STARVING IN AFRICA SHE WANTS TO HELP THEM, WHEN MARIAH SAW KIDS STARVING IN AFRICA, SHE SAID, AND I QUOTE, "I WISH I COULD BE THAT SKINNY, EXCEPT FOR WITHOUT ALL THE FLIES AND DEATH AND STUFF"

  34. Lauren (A) says – reply to this


    34

    ..she wouldn't be having these problems if she had just lived in the country for 18 months before adopting like anyone else would have been required to do.

    She should have been respectful of Malawi's adoption law and set an example for other people looking to adopt rather than throwing her weight around and trying to circumvent the system.

    That being said, I wouldn't fuck with her. Have you seen those guns??

    adopt a child without aids and was not an orphan..saint madonna? methinks not.
    and she is a hag.

    I wonder how much she paid David's father to buy him as her doo gooder token of Saint Hood.

    DAVID WAS NOT AN ORPHAN.

    If she really wanted to help David, she would have left him with his family and his father and his culture and then put her money into his family and community so that they can all improve their lives. HE would NOT have died like she claimed he would if she didn't take him. All she would have had to do was pay the same amount to his family as she paid trying to take him away from his family, they would have lived like kings over there.

    Selfish = taking a living souvenier back home with you so that they can be "grateful" to you for the rest of their lives and elevate your status within the communtiy to sainthood. PEople really fall for that "oh she was so wonderful to have adopted this poor baby" crap while the nanny takes care of all the difficult duties.

    SelfLESS= Doing something for others that does not involve personal gain i.e supporting a community rather than taking one of their members to call your own.

    It is so sad that people don't see this…

    There are SO MANY older children languishing in foster care right here in our back yards that need and want homes, but Madonna has to go to Africa to buy her child because it's not hip to take older american kids. That won't get her Saint Status, but "saving" an African baby does. Pathetic

    I'm really happy for her and little David who's so cuteeee!!!
    It's a real chance for him.
    I'm not really for uproot a child from his surroundings but, TO BE CLEAR, his background was "shit"!!!! Not the people or the country… but his FUTURE!
    He had no future apart poverty and no family.
    His "biological father" left him in a f… orphanage when the mother died but made other babies later with a new girl while david stayed at the orphanage and he pretended not to want david to leave the country, in order to have a better life?…
    That man is SO selfish.

    And to say: "Shut you're f… mouth" to people who pretend she adopted a child for some promotion:
    First of all: Madonna is an INTERNATIONAL star!!!
    Everyone knows her, she got sucess, she got lots of money, she got a family, millions of fans all over the world… she didn't need to adopt a child so the press and people talk about her!
    So I just say: Thanks to her, her family, thanx for the little David… he's gonna have a "better life" and the reason number one is NOT money but: FAMILY!!!
    And it seems to me that it's a pretty great family!!!
    Congrats madonna!!!!

    The crazy old fame whoring hag is too busy promoting her shite new album to bother with David now. You never see her with the poor child anymore, you see her going to the gym every single day though. She is a self obsessed freak who should never have been allowed adopt him, at least Angelina spends time with her adopted kids. David probably has a nanny he thinks is his Mom.

    THIS IS FROM LASURFPUNK SITE

    IDIOT JAY LENO –remember darlings: he went back to work before the writers strike was settled —- WHICH MAKES HIM A SCUMMY SCAB!!!!!!!!!!—has finally apologized for badgering poor Ryan Phillippe about his "gayest look."
    Ryan used to play a gay guy on the soap "One Life To Live," in his early days. The UNFUNNY comic wanted him to pretend one of the cameras was his gay male lover hence give the camera your "gayest look." THE SCAB kept asking him and badgering. THE SCAB continued like it was a funny bit making Ryan uncomfortable.
    IDIOT LENO was the only one who thought the comment was funny. GLAAD stepped in and stated: "We are proud of Ryan for refusing to participate in Leno's thoughtless attempt at humor," said GLAAD President Neil G. Giuliano. "Under the guise of comedy, the talk-show host is demonstrating a lack of respect for the gay community and insensitivity to both his co-workers and the audience, to whom he owes an apology."

    WHAT A STUPID, IDIOT SCAB. WE ABSOLUTELY HATE HIM AND WILL NEVER WATCH HIS SHOW. WE STOPPED WATCHING THE SHOW AFTER HE WENT BACK TO WORK WHILE THE STRIKE WAS STILL GOING ON!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Here it comes the most sensitive topic that all the vile haters will take a bite and swallow down . I won't even read any comments because I know it will be so vile , all the vile haters will be in full force . As Madonna said before this world is becoming so sad , you do something positive and you still criticized, I wonder though what are these people have done lately to make this world a better place ??? Madonna makes me a better person and nothing can take that away from me no matter what they say and no matter how vile they can be . It can't feel that great to feel that much hate toward someone or anything for that matter . Madonna will always be my Idol no matter what happened .

    97

    Her daughter looks like a yellow bug-eyed spider monkey dressed up in clothes to look more human. She is such an ugly little spiclett when she passes through the airports the guards try to may her sit in the cargo portion of the airplane with all of the other exotic monkey pets. Poor Madonna should have had a white beautiful daughter with Sean Penn instead of allowing herself to be raped by a Puerto Rican Spic at the Bronx Zoo!

    Yes, it's true. Puerto Ricans are assholes!
    They are drug-addicted sons of bitches!
    They hate themselves and long to be white but they never will be. That's why they come on here to vent to feel better about themselves!
    They are worthless pieces of shit.
    Ignorant douche bags like Reekans should be shot dead together with their worthless welfare crackhead families so this world will finally be a better place!

Stringy hair. Ugh.
