all about Madonna

Madonna offered to support the African baby she hopes to adopt and leave him in Malawi but his father declined, the pop star has told the BBC.
In a Newsnight interview, to be shown on Wednesday night, she denied reports that David Banda had regular visits from his family at his orphanage.
She “became interested in him” after being told he had been “left in the orphanage”, she said.
He is now at her London home after she was granted a temporary custody order.
Madonna denied newspaper reports that David had regular visits at the orphanage from his father and his grandmother.
“I disagree,” she said.
Asked if it would have been an option to support him and leave him in Malawi, she replied: “Yes, I offered that option to the father and he declined.
“And I never met a granny and I was told… that from the day that he was left in the orphanage he was not visited by any extended family members and that’s really why I became interested in him.
“If someone had said to me, ‘His dad comes every week or his granny visits on a regular basis and he’s well looked after,’ I would not even have given it another thought.”
There were “many conditions” that made her “worry for his life”, Madonna added.
“One was the fact that, according to the reverend who ran the orphanage that David came from, his father never visited him.
“His father lived 50 or 60km away, had no car, had no money and, as far as I was told, had remarried and moved on with his life.”
