It's Official!

Filed under: Madonna > Baby Blabber

wenn12566352__opt1.jpg

After a process that has spanned over two years…

A Malawai court on Wednesday finally approved Madonna's adoption of little David.

She's his mommy - for good!

A lawyer for her Madgesty has released a statement, saying, "We are very happy with what the judge has ruled. It is a positive and beautiful judgment that will have an impact on Malawi's adoption laws."

The adoption has been very controversial, with critics accusing the government of skirting laws that ban non-residents from adopting children in Malawi, which has been badly hit by an AIDS epidemic that has left more than 1 million orphans.

Many people and groups opposed the adoption, but in the end, even David's biological father wanted Madonna to be able to legally care for the child.

Congrats to mother and son!

    To anyone who says she bought a kid and had an advantage because of who she is should really do their homework. It took her over two years to have the adoption finalized, something that happens with everyone. Did you ever hear anything about Angelina's adoptions? Never a peep about the process, makes you wonder who actually "bought" their child. And, I'm sorry, but adopting a child for publicity or because it's in fashion? People who do things for publicity have short attention spans and I strongly doubt they'd wait for two years over something they'd be over with in five minutes.

    All of you Mariah fans are complete LOSERS. Please notice there were NO
    hateful comments on Mariah's post today from any Madonna fans, yet you
    retarded, sacrificial Lambs can't wait to come onto this post and trash Madonna (again). You are all of a bunch of hateful and ignorant losers.
    You can all FUCK OFF.

    Re: JESSIC
    Hey Jessic, I wouldn't hold my breath on an separation announcement from
    Madonna/Guy, because surely you will be dead from lack of oxygen.
    but then again, that would be one less lamb to try and educate (notice I said TRY, because you are all too stupid to even listen). I think you'll
    hear about a separation from your Mariah, before Madonna and Guy. They have their ups and downs, but they love each other and are committed to making their marriage work. If you picked up the paper and READ once in awhile, you would know that they both are committed to their marriage.

    this cunt will pay for her bullshit. 11 abortions, and now she buys an african baby in order to try and erase her guilt from what she did way back when. this cunt will pay for her bullshit.

    111

    y'all are total complete idiots if you think this woman got that adoption honestly. you know damn well she paid for that boy when malawi law CLEARLY states that only a resident of malawi can adopt there. if she didn't pay for him, or blow the malawi president to get him, how else did she get around that law?

  12. She sh says – reply to this


    112

    Dare call me a Mooria fan!! I don't think so. However, I feel that she had to pull an Angelina. Madonna is egotistical. She will be this wat until she goes to the grave. She pimped out her sleeze in the 80's. No telling how many young girls and boys are now dead from her corruption. She's stupid, because anyone who would have 11 abortions has got to be brain dead. Then she actually ADMITS it. Check out any book she has had published, and you will find it. Sick, and self-centered. She pimps out her Kabbalah..what the fuck do they believe in? She tried to convert most of Hollywood to her beliefs. Some other celeb finally told her to "fuck off" because you have to pay folks!! Just like Scientoluturds do.

    madonna fans are so naive. everything this woman does and has done has an ulterior motive. she never had a huge black audience. so, in order to get them, not only does she work with all black producers on her latest album, she makes an appearance on "106 and Park", then to seal the deal, she buys an african baby. all to appease the black audience and try to get them interested in her. people need to realize this woman's main talent is manipulation. there's always a method to her bullshit.

    Re: anonym – Did you guys see her interview with Merideth Vierra? LOL! Madonna was squirmming in her seat. Merideth went for the jugular. I can tell she hates Madonna. Madonna finally had to "go there" about David saying "Some people ask me how could I possibly want to adopt a black child?"…Merideth said "People ACTUALLY ASK you that?" Madonna looked all nervous and went "Um, yes." FUCKING LIAR!!!!!!!!

    #[re=2259164]Re: Madonn[/

    I am passionate about adoption and that is the only reason I am bothering to respond to your ignorant arse. Ever heard the saying "In over your head" ? Yeah, well, you are.

    1) I DO know a bit about Madonna's struggle to adopt David because adoption requirements are similar world wide (background investigations, financial affidavits, references, applications, court proceedings, misc. paperwork). Wait, do you need me to define any of these word for you dear? 2) Wow, you are so right, David's father is alive and kicking…He kicked him right into an orphanage! You curiously choose to ignore the fact that he knew David would have greater opportunities with Madonna around the world than in an orphanage - and he wants this better life for David.

    Let us be honest here, we don't know Madonna so we're in no position to question her intentions. I was speaking to the difficulties of adoption, with all of its hoop jumping, and that no one would put themselves through it with anything other than altruistic intentions. –You're just someone who dislikes Madonna and can't see the good in the situation. Now, go to the library and do some studying so you can come back here tomorrow and give me something better than "Enough with your stupid sympathy!"

    Such a foolio. That one is a freebee.

    …and Guy Ritchie is David's Daddy - for good.

    Problem is that Madonna and Guy are separating, so what fraud is this?

    Wow. Most of you on these boards are just hideous. Ugly. Inside. And out. Through and through. All of you are clearly hopelessly fucked up. Just admit it, you know EXACTLY who you are. Just thoroughly vile, Gross. Lately, I come here just so I can feel so much better about myself. So many of you seem seriously subhuman. . .

    Of all the kids to adopt, she has to go adopt a non-orphan. A kid who already has a parent. Taking the poor kid away from his dad.

    Off all my children alive in the Universe today- Madonna Ciccone has the biggest ego. Please pray for her so that Madge may learn to heal and subjugate her ego.

    So sad. Now David will never see his biological father again. It's a sad, sad world when a man has to give his child up because he can't afford to raise him. Then an oppurtunistic mega-rich, ego inflated celebrity goes shopping for a human accessory and picks the cutest one she can find, never mind the fact that he already HAS a father. Yes, he gave David up, because that was the only way David would survive. If she were a true philanthropist, she would have helped them financially so that David could have been raised by his own father, but no, what Madonna wants, Madonna gets, and God help anyone who stands in her way. She tricked a man who loved his son enough to give him up because she wanted what amounts to a new pet to her. I hope that when Davis grows up, he'll realize what she's done and end up hating her for it.

    There are so many ignorant idiots who comment on this website. I hope no-one ever writes an article on some of you in the media cos you know what they never tell the truth!!! but then i suppose twisted people read twisted comments! As a member of the so-called cult (do you know the meaning of the word?) of Kabbalah and of the London Centre I see Madonna,Guy and family on a regular basis. Too bad ya'll seem to want her and Guy to go their separate ways. I'm afraid it's not even a slight probablility. They are so sound - I don't care if you think that's a lie - I know the truth. I also see what great parents they are, how unspoilt those three kids are, how well they get on with each other and all the other kids at the Centre. The whole family is learning Chechewa (David's native language) and Madonna and Guy use the vocab. all the time with him.
    The difference is these are facts and when you know the truth you realise what bulls**t appears in the Press.
    All Madonna fans know you Madonna -haters have a problem with your ego!! Yeah - I'm afraid jealousy is part of ego - you're all about self. Share a little peace and empathy in the world and don't be so quick to judge. She'll be a hard act to better however much you choose to knock her. Too strong to have any kind of breakdown so stop trying to give her one. Get a life!
