If madonna gets a Judicial approval David her son will be getting a sister.
A Malawi court has scheduled a hearing for Monday to take up the Material Mama's petition to add an orphaned girl to the brood.
The hearing was announced a day after officials in the African nation confirmed the 50-year-old entertainer was seeking a second adoption.
Also on Friday, the identity of the 4-year-old girl was confirmed.
"Her name is Mercy James from Mchinji Home of Hope orphanage. She has no father and mother—they both died. We finished the assessment yesterday in readiness for the courts next week," a spokesman for the Ministry of Gender and Child Development told Reuters.

If all goes according to plan, Mercy will join 12-year-old Lourdes (Madonna's daughter with former flame Carlos Leon), 9-year-old Rocco (her biological son with Guy Ritchie) and 3-year-old David Banda, whom she and her filmmaker ex-hubby adopted two-and-a-half years ago after traveling to Malawi to help build an orphanage there.
Mercy hails from the same orphanage.
The "Causing a Commotion" singer is expected to arrive in Malawi with David sometime over the weekend and will reportedly take the boy to meet his biological father, Yohane Banda, while they're visiting.

Her publicist has declined to comment on the latest adoption news, but Madonna is hoping to avoid the controversy that erupted last time around, when various child advocacy groups accused her of using her superstar status to evade the nation's adoption laws.
Now a newly minted single mom with an extremely busy touring schedule, the "Sticky and Sweet" purveyor will be required to justify her filing before the court.
In an interview with Malawi's Nation newspaper earlier this month, Madonna was quoted as saying she'd only go through with it if she had the "support of the Malawian people and government.

Th famous rap singer T.I sentenced to an year and one day....

As expected, T.I. was sentenced today to one year and one day in Georgia prison as part of his plea deal with prosecutors over a 2007 felony weapons charge.
"Today I would like to say thank-you to some, and apologize to all," the rapper said.
"Everything I learned was through trial and error. I've learned lessons in my life to put in my music so people won't make the same mistakes as I."
The 28-year-old rapper, whose real name is Clifford Harris Jr., is required to voluntarily turn himself into prison within the next 30 to 60 days, but is not expected do so before May 19.
Northern Georgia District Judge Charles Pannell Jr., who praised the artist for exceeding the expectations required from his plea deal, acknowledged that T.I. had commitments that prevented him from being jailed before the May date.

It's unclear where he will serve his time, though court officials acknowledged that he would be receiving credit for the 305 days he already spent in home detention.

"I think this has been a great experiment," Pannell told the rapper of his plea deal. "I hope this experience can lead to other experiments so others won't make the same mistake at all. I congratulate you."
The Grammy-winning hip-hop star, who donned a charcoal-grey suit and was accompanied by his family, manager and longtime partner Tameka "Tiny" Cottle at the morning hearing, brokered a deal last March.
The Paper Trail performer pleaded guilty to a federal weapons charge and agreed to complete 1,000 hours of community service prior to his sentencing, pay a $100,000 fine and complete an additional 500 hours of community service after getting sprung. His jail time will be followed by an additional three years of supervised release.
He originally faced up to 10 years behind bars.
The reformed rapper has made 262 public appearances as part of his community service agreement in addition to taking part in a pro-voting campaign, working with children and appearing in the MTV reality show Road to Redemption. So far, he has completed 1,030 of the 1,500 total community service hours required.

As part of the deal, the rapper also agreed to forfeit all of the firearms and ammunition involved in the incident and waive his right to an appeal.
"We are very pleased with the result in this case," U.S. Attorney David E. Nahmias said. "For the past year, Mr. Harris has used his high public visibility, his exceptional communication skills and his real-world life experience to deliver the right message to literally thousands of kids."
It's an impact Nahmias said more than made up for the deal he brokered for less time behind bars.
"His prison sentence was reduced from what it might have been, but the public got something very significant in exchange: the extensive and unique community service program that Mr. Harris committed to doing when he pleaded guilty.
"By all accounts, his community service has been a remarkable success—it certainly exceeded our expectations—and there is still more to come when he gets out of prison."
T.I. was arrested on Oct. 13, 2007, just hours before he was scheduled to headline the BET Hip-Hop Awards after cops busted him attempting to buy unregistered machine guns and silencers.
As for his sentence, being as it is (just) more than one year long, he will be eligible for early release, should his good behavior warrant it. Had his sentence been one year or less, he would have been required to serve the duration of the time behind bars.

Golden Globes promise glamour and pizazz Sunday

The 66th Annual Golden Globe Awards" would be sure to tower over last year's telecast, even without trying. And executive producer Barry Adelman is trying.

"Last year was not a happy time to go through," Adelman said earlier this week. "But we're putting that behind us."

A year ago, of course, the famously rollicking ceremony was caught up in the strike by Hollywood writers, who vowed to picket if it aired.

The plug was pulled on Adelman's extravaganza just days before the big night. What NBC aired instead was an hourlong laundry list of winners, read aloud by the co-hosts of "Access Hollywood."

No stars! No glitz! No service to fans of the annual Globes gala. No wonder just 5.8 million of them watched the bare-bones substitute, less than one-third its audience in 2007.

That was then. The Globes will be revived for viewers Sunday at 8 p.m. EST, with NBC airing the festivities live from the celebrity-packed ballroom of the Beverly Hilton hote.
"We're making this year bigger and better than ever," said Adelman, who promised a measure of glamour in the show's design "that should remind everyone in the room why they got into this business in the first place."

He noted that Meryl Streep will contribute to the night's suspense. She's up for two awards: in the musical or comedy actress category for "Mamma Mia!" and dramatic actress for "Proof."

Among Streep's rivals in the latter category is Kate Winslet ("Revolutionary Road"), who is also nominated in the supporting-actress category for "The Reader."

From the TV world, Tina Fey should loom large. Several months after scoring Emmys for her comedy creation, "30 Rock," as well as for best actress in a comedy, Fey and her series could take home Golden Globes in those categories.

Steven Spielberg will receive the Cecil B. DeMille Award for his outstanding contribution to the entertainment field, "and we're going to have a lot of people in the room who have worked with him, which will make the night very special," Adelman said.

"Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie will be there. Tom Cruise will be there. It's really an embarrassment of riches!"

Scheduled presenters include the Jonas Brothers, Hayden Panettiere, Martin Scorsese, Simon Baker, Drew Barrymore, Sacha Baron Cohen, Salma Hayek, Jessica Lange, Jennifer Lopez, Amy Poehler and Seth Rogen, as well as Ricky Gervais, who provided one of the few bright moments during last September's dreary Emmycast.

And, virtually guaranteeing things don't get dreary or parched, an open bar for the guests is part of the formula.

Presented by the Hollywood Foreign Press Association, the Globes are unusual for awarding achievements in both film and television. They also differ from the more formal Oscar and Emmy ceremonies. Rather than originate from an auditorium, the Globes have a dinner-party setting where the guests feel no pain.

Golden Globes moments include Jack Nicholson waving his rear at the audience after winning for "As Good as It Gets" and "30 Rock" winner Alec Baldwin professing loose-lipped gratitude that his Golden Globe trophy "isn't too heavy because I just had hernia surgery."

At its best, the Globes telecast isn't as much like an awards show staged for viewers as it is a posh Hollywood affair on which viewers get to eavesdrop.

"One of my rules has been to let the party happen," Adelman said. "We don't impose a lot of elements that get in the way of what viewers are there for" — to see the stars, to see who wins, to hear what the winners have to say.

And maybe join them in raising a glass.
