MADONNA ADOPTS TWINS LILONGWE, Malawi (AP) OK, so Madonna lied about
not adopting children from Malawi. Madonna confirms on Instagram she
has adopted twin sisters from Malawi after denying reports last month.
She posted a photo of her walking hand-in-hand with the girls. The
Associated Press obtained a court document in which a Malawi judge says
she asked Madonna "uncomfortable questions" before approving the
adoption because she wanted to make sure Madonna wasn't just giving her
a well-rehearsed speech. The girls are four years old and their mother
died a week after they were born. Their father, who was in court when
Madonna testified, has five other children and has remarried but can't
care for all of his family. Madonna has two other children she adopted
from Malawi, and two children of her own. SOUND: 004-w-30-(Margie
