Russian Officials fear Singer Madonna’s forthcoming concert in St. Petersberg will wreak blasphemous havoc.

The pop diva is set to perform in front of the Hermitage Museum in the main square of St. Petersberg, however authorities are demanding the 50 year old to vow not to cause any trouble at her show.

Mikhail Piotrovski, the director of the museum has already labeled the show as ‘a natural disaster’, he went on to say, “We want guarantees that there will be no blasphemy,” Madonna will also be forced to sign an agreement that will bar her from playing her music too loudly.

The father of the little girl Madonna wants to adopt says the star’s wardrobe means she is not fit to be Mercy’s mum.

The singer, 50, put on bunny ears, a revealing minidress and thigh-high boots to attend New York’s biggest fashion night on Monday. She was accompanied by her on-off toyboy Jesus Luz, 22.

But Mercy James’ dad James Kambewa – who has never met his daughter – says he and many in his country of Malawi were deeply offended by the get-up.

James, 24, told a newspaper: “I cannot imagine how this woman can want to be the mother of my Mercy.”

“This can’t be a woman of 50. A teenage woman would feel ashamed in that gear.”

“A woman is supposed to be a role model for her daughters.”

“What morals can a woman of 50 have, who has no qualms in showing her delicate parts and displaying herself like that in front of her children?”

“I don’t want my daughter anywhere near such a moral-less person.”

Meanwhile, The Sun can reveal that Madonna will campaign to change the law if her bid to adopt is blocked because she is single.

She fears she may lose her appeal to take home Mercy, three, as her marriage to Guy Ritchie is over.

A source said yesterday: “If she fails on the grounds of her divorce she will be absolutely livid.

“Madonna has always been a tough independent woman and is now, more than ever, of the opinion that she doesn’t need a man for anything in her life.

“If she falls at the last hurdle because of her marital status, it will be hard to swallow. She is already talking about starting a campaign for single mums to be allowed to adopt the world over.

“She believes if you have love to offer, the fact you are divorced, widowed or unmarried should not be seen as a barrier.”

Another pal said director Guy, 40, feels “very guilty” that their split may derail the adoption.

The star’s appeal against a court refusal to let her adopt Mercy began on Monday. A decision is due in the next two weeks.

The L.A. Times thought Madge looked “ready for Neverland … like the love child of Tinkerbell and Captain Hook.” The paper asks if Madonna’s hat was wackier than the one Sarah Jessica Parker wore to the Sex and the City movie premiere in London. We’d say so, but what say you? [Dish Rag/LAT]

The London Times said the ball “ensured many new entries into the best and worst-dressed celebrity lists,” and cited Madonna as the “worst offender.” Her bunny ears made her “look more like a glamorous cleaning lady than a fashion icon.” [Times UK]

British Marie Claire noted without comment that Madonna’s outfit “brought out her 80s side,” and suggested the pop star used it as a distraction from the difficulty she’s having adopting Mercy James from Malawi. The magazine also notes that Jesus Luz, who attended as Madge’s date, looked “super suave.” [British Marie Claire]

The Insider writes that many “what the hell were they thinking” looks walked the carpet last night. André Leon Talley’s was the worst, but Madonna looked no less ridiculous, they argue, in her “Alice in Wonderland Louis Vuitton mess.” [Insider]

The Daily Mail proclaims Madonna, Rihanna, and Stella McCartney the worst fashion disasters of the night. “[Madonna]’s bizarre mini-puffball outfit, thigh-high dominatrix style boots and starched fabric headdress from Louis Vuitton’s Autumn/Winter 2009 collection saw her veer into the realms of pantomime as she looked less like a Material Girl and more like a bonfide A-list fashion disaster.” Surprisingly, this paper was one of the few that still noticed Madonna’s “rippling muscles.” And some of us still remember Madonna as the original First Arms.

If you think that Lady Gaga has gotten used to being a pop superstar, think again. No one was as surprised as the New York City native herself to see that the Queen of Pop, Madonna, took some time out of her busy schedule to catch the “Poker Face” singer’s show at New York’s Terminal 5 on Saturday.

“I was very humbled that Madonna came to the show,” Gaga told MTV News on Monday. “And I had been hearing all week that she was going to come, and I was like, ‘Oh, OK,’ and I didn’t want to talk about it or tell anyone ’cause I thought it was kind that she would want to come at all.”

What made it even more surprising for Gaga was that she didn’t think Madonna had any idea who she was, despite her hit songs and performance on “American Idol” earlier this season. But what really pleased the singer was seeing that Madge made her concert a family night.

“I was really excited to see that [Madonna's daughter] Lourdes was there, and that made me really happy ’cause during the show I noticed some beautiful spirit of a girl dancing,” she recalled. “And I didn’t know who it was and I just kept waving to her.”

It wasn’t until the set was over that she learned that the girl was Madonna’s daughter. “Then when the show was over, I said, ‘Oh, there’s this sweet, young girl up there, and she was dancing her pants off.’ And someone said, ‘Lourdes had green pants on.’ And I was like, ‘Oh my God, it was Lourdes and she was dancing.’ It really got me going. [Madonna's] a good mom, so it’s nice.”

Gaga will also be happy to hear that the legendary singer slipped out unnoticed. “I was hoping and praying she would get out safely,” she said. “If she got spotted she would have been trampled like the queen she is.”

Malawi’s Supreme Court of Appeal adjourned indefinitely on Monday a case in which Madonna is attempting to adopt a second child from the African country.

Malawi’s High Court ruled last month the U.S. pop star could not adopt a four-year-old girl, named Mercy James, because she was not a resident of Malawi. She appealed against the ruling.

Malawi’s government came under fire after Madonna adopted a 13-month-old child, David Banda, in 2006, with critics accusing it of giving her special treatment by skirting laws that ban non-residents from adopting children.
