WTF??? DOES HAWAII HAVE TO DO WITH ANYTHING?
If I were an orphan in Hawaii, I would want to STAY in Hawaii. Unless Brangelina wanted to adopt me. That would be okay:)
fag. chris crocker is gross to tho i'll give u that.
Gawd she is one rocking MILF. Mmmmmm adoption does the body right and keeps it tight. Yummy
She is either the single most attractive 43 year old in the history of mankind, or that is the single most photoshopped picture in the history of mankind.
stupid fucks
once u save a life from despair
then u can talk
until then
live the american life
It's nice to see that some people have a heart, whether adopting from the US of A or not. Orphans are all the same, no matter where they are from, get over it people.
And Mary looks HOT in that pic!! Air brush? Who cares??
She looks beautiful in this picture, very airbrushed, but beautiful.
The US makes it so hard to adopt, which is the reason so many people go to other countries.
I know you are joking about the kids in Hawaii being adopted,,
but,, really for your information,, adopting a child in America is not as easy as one might think,,
first of all,, if you have a child already,,, you cannot adopt a very young child in America,, those are reserved for people witthout kids,,
btw,, i'm talking about just regular adoption of kids in fostercare and such that nobody wants,, not private adoption,, that is a whole different messs in itself,
back to adopting American children,,
when a child if of an American Indian background,, you cannot just go and adopt that child,, you have to have American Indian background to do so,, and also,,, you cannot move that child away from the reservation usually,,,
I understand why Americans turn to adoptions out of the country,, it's a done deal,, most adoptions are final when leaving the country and you can have other children at home ,,
private adtoption in america requires a mother to pick you,, and it's usually "open",,
I love that chick.
Great, another movie actress adopting an "exotic pet" child. What the fuck is with these people, why not adopt someone from your own country. I hope this child at least needed to be adopted, not like some of Angelinas kids who were ripped away from their parents and siblings just so Angie and Brad had some new exotic plaything to show around Hollywood.
Assholes.
The cildren of Sweden need a home too!
how come no one ever adopts from Nova Scotia?
what about all the poor little buggars on the streets of mainland america? As a tourist to your country, you cant help but notice…. People all want babies, to mother, so someone loves them, they dont want 10 yr old, its all about meeting their own needs, not children's…
Re: Rachael, Scotland –
you are an idiot,,
adopting in America is very hard,,
and the kids are in fostercare for years usually before the government will even let you adopt the child,,
private adoption cost two to three times as much as an out of country adoption and the mother can change her mind(in america) and you are out all that money it cost,,, paying her expenese,, etc,, if you adopt out of country it is final after leaving country,,(usuallly) but the mother cannot come back and change her mind,,
you should not judge people until you know the facts,,
plus,, america will not let you get babies if you have other children at home,, and the waiting list to get a healthy infant could take many years here in America,,
YAAY i love weeds .. good luck Mary
Re: fluffy galore –
if a 22 year old mother wanted to adopt a child,,
she coudl not adopt a 10 year old,,
that would of made her 12 when that child was born,,
that does not make sense,,
only older couples are usually suited to adopt older children,,
most older children in american adoption system have huge special needs,, alot of them are considered dangerous to be around other children,, so it's best if only older people adopt that have no other young children at home,,
alot of kids taken from their parents have a history of abuse,, alot of times sexually,, so that is always a concern when adopting a child that has been sexually abused,, because these children sometims sexually abuse aother children,,
so,, before you judge who adopts who,, you should think about how older children are not always great to adopt
Africa is not a country. No-one would ever say, has adopted a baby from Europe… would they? maybe some nations would though….:):):) we have a joke here in EUROPE - to americans it is a country and its capital is Paris
:
Silly bitch is just as superficial as all hollywood stars. It's fashion to go out and buy yourself a kid. Buying from Africa gives you big credit points apparently for your rep atm for little money or effort.
I guess the instant gratification of the tabloids wouldn't of occurred if she just adopted a US baby, even if she was stuck on a "black" model. It would have required a showing of true commitment and a bit more financal sacrifice. Trouble is it wouldn't be as news worthy as an "african" one so why go through the effort and hence the whole reason of adoption would have been pointless in the first place.
Frankly she's a plain looking mamma and a bit of a bossy boots that no man would hang around for long enough. Not surprised she can't get knocked up herself. Probably too afraid.
I dont understand why all of these celebrities are adopting from other countries seemingly without even exploring the children that need good homes in the US. What ever happened to taking care of home 1st?????
I know P's comment was meant as an offhand joke, but it's not far from the reality of it. Why is it that these people consistently have to run to Africa to adopt? There are children all over the world in destitute conditions. Of course if they did that though, you wouldn't see how 'progressive' these fame whores are. If it sincerely was about being selfless..why not adopt a special needs child? Who better than to do something like that, than someone who could afford to get this child the extra help they need in life? But it's not about that.. they wouldn't look quite as 'glamourous' jetsetting the globe with a child that had Downs Syndrome or the like, would they?
Think about this.. how often do you see pictures of Angelina Jolie toting around her own kid vs. one of her adoptees? Good thing they have the money..poor Shiloh will need the counseling later, for self esteem issues. Watch her teen years. Perez will have fodder for Shiloh like he has for Britney.
Unless you are knowledgeable about adopting domestically as opposed to internationally, don't knock it. Sadly, in domestic adoptions, the adoptive parents need more rights. Children can be taken away at a moment's notice. Can you imagine how that feels? At least internationally the child is yours forever. Done deal. Plus, the wait is typically much shorter for a child when adopting internationally.
Hey, I'm from Kenya (that is in East Africa for those not up on their geography). Why not adopt me?!
They air brushed alot of background in to cover the fat.
wow…i'm hoping that's milky white body paint. she kinda blends in with the white background.
I love her she's fucking rad.
Hey, I'm from Kenya (that is East Africa for those not clear on their geography). Why not adopt me?! I'm looking for a home.
WTF Perez?????
What I want to know is why none of these celebrities adopt from the good ole USA??????????????
gorgeous.. though airbrushed.. still gorgeous
Re: jenniferzz – so why would it be so difficult for these celebrities to get on a wait list and show that they really do care about the child/ren involved and not how much media attention they will get for adopting a "poor child" from out of the country.
these women will rue the day they adopted these children when the savage drumbeats in their souls rise to a fever pitch and they lash out at their foreign abductors.
That's a retarded thing to say. Here, a child with out a family is raised with in our system if they are not adopted. In other countries, the only system in place is death. You really have no idea of the horrors suffered by children who reside outside of America. I think it is commendable for anyone to adopt a child from anywhere though, so quit questioning the love and be happy that one less child will die.
I love her so much….good for her for adopting, no matter where the child was from!!!
your right Perez (as always) NO ONE EVER ADOPTS FRON THE USA … IM READY TO BE ADOPTED BY A RICH & FAMOUS "MOVIE STAR" SO WHAT IF IM 30 I DONT HAVE A PROBLEM WITH IT HA HA SO BRAD IF YOUR READY SO AM I …… LOVE YOU PEREZ !!
Because the children of hawaii are not surrounded by war. When they get older they will have many more freedoms and opportunities for even being born American. Though I agree…our foster care/ adoption programs in America need ALOT of work…….. but still…. Taking in a child from those countires gives them the opportunity to grow more than they would have ever if they stayed in their home country(the war and poverty riddled ones..) I say anyone that adopts any children should be commended! It doesnt matter what country they are from…they are still doing a wonderful thing opening their hearts and homes. The whole "bandwagon" thing….. well it may be "true" for some of the celebs…but the MASS MAJORITY just want someone to love and be loved….and are going into it for the right reasons. So I say kudos to her and anyone else that adopts..more people should be like that and I wish nothing but the best for her and her new child!
how come nobody ever adopts from the UNITED STATES? there are more foster children than the system can handle. I challenge a celebrity to adopt an older child from the juvenile court system. then, THEN we will have faith in your charitable and giving ways, instead of now, when celebrities are adopting designer babies.
What's with these celebrities adopting babies from Africa???? It's just too bizarre. What about all the needy babies in the U.S.? I mean if these white chicks just HAVE to HAVE a black baby, why don't they go to the ghetto in L.A. and pick up a few? I'm sure there are plenty of mothers there who would want their children to have a better life. I have no respect for these celebrities. Also, you don't see black celebrities adopting babies from Africa, just the dumbass white chicks.
God i love her, and her show.
Anyone watch it last night??
U-turn is dead!! Holy crap! Thats like the first positive thing that's happened so far this season!
Awww i love her, Weeds was so good last night Mary-Kate was fabulous I can't wait til next week!!!!!!!!
THESE KIDS WILL NOW HAVE ACCESS TO GOOD HEALTH CARE, GOOD PRIVATE SCHOOLS, CLEAN WATER AND FOOD, ETC. I APPLAUD ANY RICH PERSON WILLING TO SHARE THEIR WEALTH TO SAVE A CHILD.
NO! Hawaiian babies should only be adopted by people who live in Hawaii. How cruel to remove a defenseless child from paradise.
Damn i would tear that up…thats a nice lookin snake!
its harder here to adpot kids so many hoops you have to jump through. No wonder they all go shopping in Africa for kids
Re: Rachael, Scotland – become educated before you speak of something you know nothing about. There are MILLIONS and MILLIONS of orphans in Africa who don't have a roof over their head, food on their plate or medical attention. This can NOT be said of children in the US foster care system…. There are also many families who have attempted to adopt in the US only to have their children ripped from their arms and returned to the druggie birth mother… people adopt internationally for many reason… because it is perceived as a "fad" by fools in NOT one of them.

Re: READYTOGO –
Rosie adopted from the us… does the media harp on this? NO because her children are white… Steven Speilberg has adopted children… the only we ever hear about is the black one…. Tom Cruise… do we hear much about his kids.. not really….
The media only reports intensively when people adopt from Africa.. why? RACISM! pure and simple… Many stars have adopted white kids and no one cares! but a few adopt from Africa and stupid people make it seem like it is a fad! Idiots! Since when is adding to you family, making a big life change and saving a child a fad??? GROW UP PEREZ… I would have expected a bit more from you.
Love love love love loveeeee her!!!
yes im a child from hawaii,
Adopt me.
At least i can bathe, change, n feed myself!
(but ill spend all your $$ n smoke all your weed) =P
the children from the USA need homes too - DUH!
And notice how there was no media attention at all about it? It can be done quietly. Take note Madonna…some things are best not to use as publicity stunts.
She
Has
such
lovely
milky
smooth
skin
Re: Missy – just as you need to stay off the pipe and stay in school… you idiot!
The kids of Hawaii are all ready in Paradise why would one be so curl as to take them from that… plus if i was going to be homeless somewhere and have no family i would do it in hawaii.
Re: adoption mom – Well said adoption mom!!!! finally someone who can speak!
and for all of you harping about kids needing to be adopted in the US… what the hell are you doing for them? are you going to adopt? become a big brother or big sister? donate time, goods or money??? unless you are willing to step us and do something yourself, shut up!

I applaude you Mary Louise! Congratulations on your new addition.
UM, NO…HOW COME NO ONE ADOPTS SPECIAL NEEDS OR HIGH-RISK BLACK KIDS FROM DETROIT. C'MON NOW, THOSE ARE THE KIDS NO ONE WANTS. SANTA ANGELINA MY ASS!!
WHYYYY!?! Because it seems like the "it" thing to do to adopt starving black aids ridden babies from Africa instead of adopting a starving, abused, molested, homeless, lice ridden baby from the States.
There are a zillion unwanted babies in Africa you dingaling.
Re: Rachael, Scotland – get serious. have you ever tried to adopt a baby from the USA?? My parents waited on a list for 7 years for an american baby 30 years ago. Its way harder to get one even now. Thats why EVERYONE is going global.
There are Civil Wars raging in Africa still. . .
Kids are starving in Africa still. . .
Hmmm
No war in Hawaii that I am aware of. . .
No shortage of food that I am aware of . . .
I'm glad a little life was saved & now has a chance to live in America
I know some people feel its a trend. But if a trend betters a life. . .
It is a GOOD Trend & we all know we all need more GOOD in this WORLD!!!
JAM for PEACE & LOVE ALWAYS
what ever happened to the baby she was going to have with billy crudup? remember he dumped her when she was 7 months pregnant for that horse faced wore claire danes?
The kids from Hawaii need a good home too?!? Perez you crack me up homie!! (lol) Anyway, I am super happy for Mary Louise!!! She is frickin awesome! Her show rocks! Fuck Billy Crudup! His ass should have never left her for Claire Danes while she was 7 months pregnant.

VIVA MARY LOUISE!!!
I could suck on MLP's ass till her head caves in. Yummo!
Hot … Hot … Hot … I love this woman!
You are soooooo SILLY Perez!
what about some latin kids its always some child from Africa or in the philipines or some where in asia. latin kids need to eat and need a family too. . I dont think any celeb has adopted a latino child if im wrong post it and ill apologize but its highly unlikely that you'll find an adopted hispanic child. .
Geez, these people just walk around and adopt kids like going down to the local pound and pick out a puppy! Only that this one and others rather go to foreign pounds! There are so many unwanted black babies here in the USA! Talk about outsourcing! Fuck these people, if they wanted to make a difference then why not start at home instead of uprooting these kids away from their countries, culture and race!
because the US approach to adoption it almost impossible for a single woman to adopt here in the US, dumbass. as a single mom to an adoptive daugther from india i get sick to death of hearing that same stupid comment.
Chink babies are all the rage. I can't wait for those small ones to see their mom like this (err, I mean in the nude in public).
Did she get a few bucks thrown in to work the cotton fields?
The children of hawaii need a home too….that's funny.
just what we need! Another fuckin' foreigner in our country. i mean, it's not like america has any orphans. MLP does look hot in this pic though.
Re: child advocates –
It's not as simple as walking into your local courthouse and asking for a child!! Take a look at the real children that are available, and the requirements for adopting a child from the US foster care system.

Reading all the negative comments towards people who do good in this World is upsetting. No wonder why this World is filled with wars, racism, poverty and the like! It is b/c of the attitudes of people filled with the negativity like yours. We ALL live in ONE place - PLANET EARTH. Why not try and make the world a better place for your biological children as they are doing for their adoptive children and create a world with love and peace for everyone. A child is a child. It should not matter where they come from. It is not your place to dictate who adopts from what country. Nor do you know if any of these celebrities will or are trying to adopt from America. Seriously, instead of hating on them, do something positive!
Re: Adoption of American children is not easy,, even Hawaiian kids –
Before people start saying things about adopting children from the USA, they need to be educated. There are plenty of American children who need homes, and it does not matter if you have given birth prior to adopting or not if you want to adopt an infant. It is far more expensive to adopt outside of the US and more risky as far as health issues and adopting the child later in their life, after they have been orphaned, etc. Two of our children came to us at 2 days old…and they know their birht parents which helps with knowing their identity.
Go Hawaii!!! Yeah Perez!!! Adopt in America!!! Rosie and Sheryl Crow's children are from the good old USA.
Uh oh, she's naked…call DFACS quick! Look out Mary Louise, here comes Perez!
JLO got a baby to
WTF IS UP WITH THESE PEOPLE??????????????????????????????????????
MADONNA AND JOLIE ARE NUT'S AND THIS CHICK JUST JOINED THEM.
or how bout america!!!!
How come no one ever adopts from my apartment? I need a rich celeb mommy, even just a semi-rich celeb mommy! I come complete with cute scruffy dog and ability to belt a few lines of "Tomorrow".
BLACK REPULICANS WAKE UP! TAVIS SMILEY GAVE A PLATFORM FOR THE REP AND DEM CANDIDATES TO DISCUSS SOME IMPORTANT ISSUES! NONE OF THE FRONT RUNNING REP SHOWED UP! WHAT DOES THAT SAY!!! WAKE UP! VOTE DEMOCRAT! REPUBLICANS DO NOT CARE ABOUT OUR ISSUES!
How about adopting kids from our own US of A… would suck to be a parentless american child in a foster home today..
Celebs should adopt from America - there are 100,000 kids in foster care here.
all you idiots commenting on how hard it is to adpot an american child.. NOT IF YOUR FUCKING ANGELINA!!!!! Look at Sheryl Crow, you freaking go girl. use your fame for good, not to take time away in the news for your rehad program and not about mamas babies dying in Iraq…
ugh this will be the new trend, instead of carrying around a toy dog in their million dollar LV purses, celebrities will carry little African children..Angelina was the first, and the only of the lot with the right intentions.
TRUE PEREZ! BY THE WAY WHEN AM I GONNA SEE YOUR ASS IN HAWAII….HOLLA AT ME I'LL BRING YA TO ALL THE SPOTS HERE…..I GOT A WHOLE TRAIN OF FOLLOWERS OF PEREZ HILTON HERE IN HAWAII.
ADOPTING AFRICAN BABIES WAS SOOO LAST YEAR. NOW YOU HAVE TO ADOPT KLINGON/VULCAN BABIES and ACCESSORIES THEM WITH YOUR GUCCI!!!
