Malawian Court to Hear Madonna Adoption Appeal

Madonna’s appeal of a ruling which barred her from adopting a three year-old Malawian girl will be heard next month by a court in the southern African nation, according to an Associated Press report.

According to the news service, Madonna is not required to be present during the appeal, which could last up to two weeks.  The case will come before three judges from the Supreme Court of Appeal on May 4.

Madonna has said she still wants to adopt Chifundo “Mercy” James. The pop star has already adopted a son, David, from Malawi. The country requires prospective parents to live there for 18 to 24 months while child welfare authorities assess their suitability - a rule that was not applied when Madonna was allowed to take David to London in 2006.

Madonna has enlisted a Malawian lawyer to plead her case with regard to a law that he will argue is “archaic”.

Camouflaged Woman Spies on Britney Spears

The Los Angeles County Sheriff’s Department yesterday arrested a camouflage-wearing, camera-toting woman they say was caught peeking into the windows of Britney Spears’ Calabasas home, according to an AP report. The 26-year-old woman, Miranda Tozier-Robbins, was issued a citation for trespassing and disorderly conduct and released.

The incident occurred hours before Spears was scheduled to perform the first of two shows this week in Los Angeles. The 27-year-old singer’s whereabouts at the time of the episode were unknown and a spokesperson for the Sheriff’s Department said it was unclear what Tozier-Robbins was up to.

Spears recently moved to Calabasas for privacy’s sake from a hilltop Los Angeles home that was constantly being staked out by paparazzi.

In a perhaps somewhat misguided attempt at philanthropy following her recently denied second Malawi adoption, Madonna has decided to donate money to help the victims of the devastating earthquakes that ravaged L’Aquila, Italy earlier this week.

Unfortunately, Madonna has donated her money to a town that was not actually in the quake zone. Continue reading »

Beyonce I am Sasha Fierce Review, plus Free Beyonce Downloads

Published November 18th, 2008 by Karen

Beyonce Knowles: I am Sasha Fierce. Seriously.

In the past year, Beyonce Knowles has gotten a ton of attention thanks to her top secret wedding to Jay Z. However, attention is about to turn back to the singer’s music…maybe.

Actually, it’s surprising that more people aren’t talking about the ridiculous new album Beyonce is set to release on November 18. Titled I Am…Sasha Fierce and featuring new songs such as If I Were a Boy mp3 the album is meant to represent the singer’s outgoing performer persona, which she has apparently dubbed Sasha Fierce.

Ok, anyone who has watched an episode of (or commercial for) America’s Next Top Model knows that this whole “fierce” thing is silly. Tyra Banks constantly refers to models and poses and everything else in the world as fierce, so much so that, apparently, even Beyonce wants in on the action.

Seriously?

Ten years into your career is a little late for a name change, joking or not (Prince, Diddy, we’re looking at you). Remember when Garth Brooks tried to reinvent himself as an Australian rockstar named Chris Gaines with a movie and concept album (and a shaggy blond wig)? It failed miserably and has made him something of a laughing stock among music fans.

It’ll be interesting to see how fans react (or if they react at all) when Beyonce/Sasha’s new album hits stores next week.
