Madonna has been busy shopping in Malawian, Africa. She has found the perfect accessory. It will look adorable with her adopted son David Banda. You guessed it, a three year old little girl Mercy James, to even out the family. Can’t let those pesky Jolie-Pitt’s get all the good press. Madonna will be 50 this week so jumping on the pregnant with twins trend is a tiny bit beyond her this is the next best thing.

Malawian adoption minister Penstone Kilembe said: “Madonna’s representatives have been visiting the girl. The adoption is now advanced — all the government is waiting for is Madonna to forward the petition of adoption formalities. Then Mercy will be able to leave the country for a new life.”

The adoption officials yesterday confirmed that the singer has started up adoption paper work. Madge’s pals seem to think this means that her marriage to Guy Ritchie is back on track. Lets hope so.

A close friend of the family revealed:“The adoption process in Malawi is so long and stressful that all the legal wrangling put a huge strain on their marriage. They dropped proceedings to pour all their energies into each other. But Madonna now feels they are stable enough to press ahead with the adoption again.”

From the buzz going around it sounds like the little girl’s family does not want her to leave the country. Her Grandmother Lucy Chekechiwa and an uncle don’t want to relinquish custody to a foreign couple. Oh this sounds like trouble to me. Just another international incident waiting to explode in Madge’s face. Remember the mess with David’s adoption.

I would not want Liz Rosenberg’s job. She is Madonna’s publicist and this is a huge problem on her plate. How to make Madge sweeping into a village and flying off with babies look good? Maybe she should bang Batman this time to take attention away from this mess. Hey it worked with A-Rod.
