Madonna parties to prove she is good to go for adoption.

Monday, April 6th, 2009

Madonna was denied allowing to adopt an African kid because she hadn’t been a resident of Malawi. Oh, and because her lifestyle is kind of like a rockstars. So what’s the solution? Build your character back up by throwing a big African bash. According to TMZ.

Government officials and staff members of Raising Malawi charity are on the guest list for the event, along with traditional dancers. No word if the judge who denied Madge will attend.
Madonna’s lawyer said she will appeal Friday’s judgment that she could not adopt a 3-year-old girl because she had not been a resident in Malawi.
This massive party looks like the start of her appeal, at least socially.

Nothing speaks being in touch with impoverished nations like a champagne party for its residents. Maybe she should setup a valet for the mules. I think Madonna seems very confused in her post-hot, post-talented stage in life. This all just seems to be a bit much, if you ask me.

Madonna wants to be the next Oprah.

Tuesday, November 25th, 2008

So Madonna is making an attempt to be the Oprah version for white people. She wants to build a school in Africa for girls only.

From Fox News:

Of course, Oprah’s school is not connected to any kind of religious cult. Raising Malawi is an off shoot of the Kabbalah Center in Los Angeles, run by former insurance salesman Philip Berg and his family.
There’s no word yet on whether the Madonna Academy students will have to wear $26 red strings on their wrists or drink bottled Kabbalah water. But pictures this weekend of Madonna carrying her adopted Malawi son, David Banda, into the Kabbalah center, pretty much says it all.

I mean, I guess this is Madonna’s way of rebounding from the Guy Ritchie divorce. She has to fill her time. Lets all hope that this doesn’t mean she intends to begin hanging out with Dr. Phil. At least she is trying to do some good for the world.
