Madonna's adoption bid denied
On Wednesday, regarding her bid to adopt 3-year-old Mercy James from Malawi, Madonna's lawyer told Us Weekly:
"I am not sleeping sleepless nights over this. I don't see any law in Malawi that can stop this adoption."The BBC said today:
A Malawian court has ruled that US pop star Madonna has failed in her bid to adopt a second child from the country.He had no "sleepless nights" over an adoption bid that was clearly trying to circumvent Malawi law? I think it's pretty clear what's happening here. MADONNA'S LAWYER IS A VAMPIRE! Just kidding. But he is fired.
"I must have to decline to grant the application to Madonna," judge Esmie Chondo said in a ruling following a closed-door hearing on Friday.
Madonna's application was rejected because of a requirement that prospective parents be resident in the southern African state for 18 to 24 months. (Source)
NOTE: I hope Malawi never gets Internet access because if Mercy ever Googles herself and finds out what could have been, she may jump off the highest building in the country to kill herself. Don't be worried though -- it's only one and a half stories. She'll probably just sprain an ankle.
