Madonna arrived in Malawai on Sunday, where she is expected to finalize the process of adopting a little girl named Mercy.
Her Madgesty, accompanied by her Mini-Me, the grownup Lola, went straight from the airport to the impoverished village of Chinkhota to discuss a school she is planning to build.
The Queen of Pop said it was “amazing” to be back in the country where she runs a charity organization and from where she adopted her son David, 3.
Madonna is expected to appear Monday in court in Lilongwe, the capital of Malawi, to sign adoption papers.
The singer/humanitarian first traveled to Malawi in 2006 while doing charity work and filming a documentary on the devastating poverty and AIDS crisis there.
The U.N. estimates that half of the 1 million Malawian children with one or no parents was orphaned by AIDS, and that the virus that causes AIDS has infected 14 percent of adults there. Of the population of 13 million, 65 percent live below the poverty line, and most of those living in poverty are women.
Madonna plans a special school for girls to increase opportunities for girls and young women in Malawi.
