Madonna Visits Malawi, May Adopt Child
Madonna is following the footsteps of Angelina Jolie. Say what you will; I’m not going to knock this sort of behavior, given I myself was adopted. I think it’s a selfless thing to do and a tremendous benefit to the children they adopt. I just wish more was done with the countless orphans we have in our own country.
I still can’t believe how much Lourdes looks like Madonna in that picture above. There’s a lot of talk about celebrities with their “mini me” children; this one is truly remarkable.
Madonna arrived in Malawi on Wednesday on a mission to help AIDS orphans – and may leave with a child adopted in this impoverished southern African country. Andrina Mchiela, secretary to the minister for gender and child welfare, said the pop star planned to adopt a child and launch six projects to help underprivileged children during her stay. Madonna and her husband, director Guy Ritchie, have a son, Rocco, 5, and the singer also has a daughter, Lourdes, 9.
Madonna and an entourage of some 10 people landed on a private plane in the capital Lilongwe just after 9 a.m., according to Mchiela. There had been no prior announcement.
Madonna was expected to spend Wednesday resting in the capital, Lilongwe. She was to travel Thursday to Mphandula, a village about 30 miles from the capital, where she wants to set up an education and feeding center for children orphaned by the AIDS epidemic.
Malawi is among the poorest countries in the world, trapped in a seemingly endless cycle of hunger and disease. HIV/AIDS infects just over 14 percent of the 12 million population – most of them economically active adults – and has left an estimated 1 million children orphaned.

I here ya! What makes me want to hurl is all the adopted children of the celebrities are beautiful. I call it “buying babies”. Ordinary people have to have their DNA tested and go through a long crueling process.
