Madonna Inadvertently Employs Makeshift Bodyguards

Madonna, Lourdes and David Banda continued to enjoy their time back in David's homeland of Malawi this week. Lourdes happily honed her filmmaking skills, but it sounds like the trip has also had some pretty intense moments for Madonna and (I imagine) little David, too. Yesterday afternoon the singer and her newly adopted son were set to visit his former orphanage to meet with David's father. As expected, the media frenzy was in tow, but a group of local students decided to protect Madonna and David by throwing rocks at the swarming media. Sounds honorable, though I'm sure the kids learned that sticks and stones may break the paparazzi's bones, but nothing will ever (ever) really deter them.

    Just like it's supposed to be 'kids' not 'kins' LOL! But I actually really respect that Madonna is bringing her son to visit his father & I hope that he'll continue to have contact with him even if it's only over the phone or through letters. But I can't help wondering if Zahara's grandmother will ever get to see HER again...

    Maybe the media would not be as bad if MAG did not tell everyone she was going. She brought a camera crew with her AS USUAL!!! This man hands would do anything for PR. Including using her new son!! I can't stand her anymore!!! Stop trying to reinvent yourself to EVER NEW FAD NOW!! She used to make trends.. now she just jumps on the band wagon!!

    all 3 of them look so happy...being back on pop after a hiatus makes me realize why i left, negative negative negative is all everyone is...yes she brough a camera crew its the only way you can make a documentary and shead light on subject matters when no one can see them...god bless her for allowing david and his father to see each other thats an amazing thing for her to allow...this is society is so full of HATE, hate on people who dont do anything to help society, there are plenty of them.

    I think it's really sweet what the kids did. Madonna looks like a great mother, and the kids look normal & happy.

    I think Lourdes looks just like her father. Bet Guy wouldn't let her bring Rocco.

    She could have done a documentary without all the PR!! Read a little before you make a blanket statement!! She has Limo drivers tooling her around. She stops for a PHOTO OPP than off to the next ruin, give me a break.
    I have been to Mauritania and got on the ground.. touched the dirt.. Dropping into a country on a private jet.. taking photo ops...bringing a camera crew so the world can see you letting your ADOPTED son meet his father is AWFUL!! Shouldn't that be a PERSONAL event.. The child is a baby and he has to deal with CAMERA EVERYWHERE!!!

    skinnyfat is that true? That guy wouldn't let her bring him? I wonder why?? David is younger then him. hmm.. Maybe he thought it would be too much stress on her. But, she does have nanny's.

    ilove2ski, I don't know if it's true but it seems ODD that Guy didn't accompany her EITHER visit and that Rocco is not there. I read that he told her to make sure she got her hands dirty this time and that he wasn't going to go to Malawi and drive around in a caravan of limos. I don't see them lasting.

    Her sunglasses probably cost more than a Malawi person makes in a lifetime. "Come Lourdes. Let's put on our shabbiest designer clothes and visit the poor Malawians." Barf!

    For some reason, the thought of people throwing rocks to protect Madonna strikes me as pure comedy....

    I seriously don't know how people spend that much money on a pair of sunglasses! My friend has dior, coach, and prada and they aren't that special! I lose my glasses or break them all the time. I am not kidding when I say my most expensive glasses are $10 and I didn't even want to spend that much.
    Plus the friend who has all those glasses, last week saw mine and she went and bought mine, and she even said she likes them way better then any of her designer ones.

    I read an article interviewing Tim Gunn from Project Runway and he said all this fashion label wearing stuff is ridiculous. I agree. I see people here in NYC and they're a walking ad for Chanel...very declasse if you ask me.

    Well with my great luck I would buy an expensive pair and jump off the boat trying to be like Will Smith in Hitch when he goes after Eva and lose my glasses again. Sad That was a sad day for me.
    Oh yeah I also broke 2 pairs of glasses at Cedar Point in one day. Another sad day. Sad

    I have a pair of good ones.. and not so expensive ones.. the less expensive I wear when I am with my kids.. so as you can imagine the good ones never get worn because I am always with one or two of my little guys!! Smiling

    hahahaha Yeah I would defiantly never wear mine if I had them. I would be so nervous of breaking them.
    I just have a bad curse with glasses, so I could never spend $300 dollars on a pair.

    If you buy a decent knockoff, no one can tell the difference unless they're one of those "experts" and they scrutinize the item. When I picked up my YSL Muse bag in Saks, I was wearing a $500 replica of a $1500 Gucci bag and the salesperson thought it was the real deal.

    Why do people believe they know the inside track of what's going on in someone else's relationship or with their career?

    And when did everyone become PR experts?

    I guess reading tabloids these days is considered reliable information to base all perceptions on.

    Just sayin'.

    Wow.

    Seems to me that the PR wagon is either REHAB or going to a poor country. AJ has done it FOR YEARS so please don't think I include her in the pact of Jessica, Mag the Hag's either!!! It seems that when the careers start to slip.. they jump on a "Cause band wagon". YES MAG's career has started to slip.. the hanging on a cross is getting really old no? I am insulted by the way she attacks Jesus but gets away with hit. Do you think if she did that with a Koran it would be excepted? Or her Kabbalah string? NO WAY!!!
