Madonna Paps Pelted by Stones
Labels: Madonna, Music, NewsMadonna has found an army of unlikely allies as she attempts to avoid the media on a trip back to her adopted baby David's hometown in Malawi - local teenagers. The students hurled stones at international journalists attempting to cover Madonna's visit to Mchinji yesterday morning - in a bid to keep them from ruining a meeting between the pop star and her adopted son's biological father. The teens from the nearby Mchinji Home Of Hope orphanage formed a protective ring around the building where Madonna met with Yohane Banda, and they threw stones at anyone who attempted to get close to the compound. The Home Of Hope orphanage is the place where Madonna first spotted David, who had been placed there by his father after his mother died. Madonna, who was also joined on her trip back to Africa by daughter Lourdes, is paying for a new clinic to be built in the village of Gumulira and is supporting efforts by aid groups to help improve food security and education in Malawi.
