Oct 31 2006Madonna protects her kid with string
Madonna's rep confirms she's already started making David Banda wear the red Kabbalah string bracelet which, according to Kabbalah literature, fends off "the unfriendly stare and unkind glances we sometimes get from people around us."
If Madonna really wants to fend off unkind looks from strangers she's gonna need a hell of a lot more than a red bracelet. Like a blanket printed with puppies she can throw over herself whenever she goes out in public. Then whenever people are giving her angry looks she can just hide under the blanket and everybody will be like "aww, puppies" and forget why they were reaching into their pockets for a stabbing knife.
More of Madonna strolling with newly protected David through JFK airport in New York after the jump.
NOTE: If you're Madonna and you're getting angry stares, odds are they're not directed at the one-year-old baby you're carrying. "But if not the baby, then who? Who else could it be?!"

He is really a cutie
3. ApacheRose - October 31, 2006 9:04 AM
I guess I'm just impressed that she's carrying him herself. But didn't the kid's dad indicate that he was told little David would be brought up Christian? And already with the stupid red string...
4. Missallanpoe - October 31, 2006 9:06 AM
Hmm..why's she getting angry glances? -.- must be a racial thing. People sickin me.
5. justme - October 31, 2006 9:07 AM
What kind of accessory should I get.. A new watch or a jigaboo?
6. Missallanpoe - October 31, 2006 9:07 AM
Oh and btw..I really doubt she's getting angry glances because she put a freakin string around his arm. Why do people have to be so uptight about religion. Jesus tap dancing christ.
7. PapaHotNuts - October 31, 2006 9:08 AM
Since all black babies look the same, Madonna tied a red string around the kid's wrist so the nanny picks up the right negro from daycare.

Red string doesn't work nearly as well as a pizza box. Just ask Lindsay.

I see that Rocco has been demoted to the babysitter.
11. BigJim - October 31, 2006 9:14 AM
So this kid is going to be raised as a whitey. K-Earl wants to be black so bad we invented the term blonkey just for him.
But what to call a black kid who acts white?
Blitey?
Nitey?
Blaucasian?
Wigaboo?
I'm stumped.
12. RichPort - October 31, 2006 9:14 AM
#5 - A new sense of humor would be the best accessory you could get. That or a taste for gunpowder and lit matches.
Why oh why is Madge perpetuating the stereotype already? She's got him dressed like a little homie and managed to match nis crispy Nikes to his red string. Everytime I see that string I think used tampon. And I abhor things that make me think of used tampons. A nice fat Jesus piece at the end of a rope chain would complete this sad, sad look.

How can you hate Madonna for adopting this kid....he so damn cute! And I don't even like kids, just ask mine!
15. KristinMichelle - October 31, 2006 9:20 AM
I don't think people are staring at her because she is racist or because they care about that ridiculous string bracelet. They are staring b/c she is crazy-cuckoo and should have hung up her hat about five years ago. Also, even if Madonna was subjected to ridicule by people intolerant of her religious beliefs, so what? She created an image that scoffs at dogmatic religion, and look at her now. Pot... kettle... black...
16. PapaHotNuts - October 31, 2006 9:31 AM
He is so cute. I want a niglet too.

A red string to ward off dirty looks? Hello, are we 15? what do pink strings do? And how about the purple ones? so fucking gay.
18. ponk - October 31, 2006 9:36 AM
#11 Jim, ask michael jackson.
from the 15th to 18th centuries, the catholics used to convert the impoverished. It didn't go over real well back then.

Settle down #20. Just like Madonna, when my great-great grandpappy used to bring blacks over from Africa, he also tied a rope around them. It just wasn't around the arm.

Hey, y'all, here's a riddle:
Q: What's the difference between a cadillac and a pile of dead African babies?
A: I don't have a Cadillac in my garage.
29. PapaHotNuts - October 31, 2006 9:57 AM
My neighborhood civic association banned storing black babies in the garage. And parking on the street. We can't park on the street either.

Jules: [pause] No. I didn't.
Jimmie: You know WHY you didn't see that sign?

32. oshkoshb-goshdammgosh - October 31, 2006 10:06 AM
Yeah, I know how it is. There's still so much segregation in the South. I'm pretty sure I'm in violation of the White-Only dead babies mandate.
33. 86 - October 31, 2006 10:08 AM
I seem to have stumbled upon some sort of racist thing here. I'll excuse myself, but I just have to say....I'm not sure I care about the Madonna adoption 'thing' at all!! The only thing more boring would be pictures of Angelina holding a new orphan.
34. Italian Stallion - October 31, 2006 10:12 AM
She needs to pick something else to be for Halloween, pretending to be a Zoo keeper is just not funny......

He's a baby, therefore he's cute!
36. Spudboy - October 31, 2006 10:14 AM
Oh crap.. the kabbalah. When are we all going to embrace the 21st century and shitcan all this medieval religious tomfoolery... and why is it that women always invariably eat up every metaphysical bit of lunacy they come across with a spoon?
37. Pagan Queen - October 31, 2006 10:29 AM
Spudboy - be careful what you say or I will turn you into a newt!
38. commissioner - October 31, 2006 10:42 AM
You do have to give her props for her thriftiness. String is a lot less expensive than hourly paid security guards. And string doesn't eat as much or gossip to the tabloids or wear your underwear.
39. jrzmommy - October 31, 2006 10:44 AM
Yeah, Commish, but string also can't do you seven ways from Sunday when you're pissed at your spousal unit....so there are a few drawbacks.
40. Brain Embolism - October 31, 2006 10:44 AM
Perfect example:
#4 - A racist fuck!
#25 - A funny fuck!
41. HolisticWisdomcom - October 31, 2006 10:47 AM
Geez, racial slurs, attacks on Judaism, when are we all going to accept our differences?
I think it is great that Madonna is raising him as her son. The fact that an unmarried, Jewish woman can adopt a black child and raise him as her own makes me happy that we live in such a diverse world.
42. RichPort - October 31, 2006 10:47 AM
I don't know what the problem is with the string. We all have hollistic remedies for certain ailments and conditions. In fact, my force field has yet to let me down.
43. Brain Embolism - October 31, 2006 10:50 AM
@40 - That blew that all to hell.
#4 is now #5
44. BigJim - October 31, 2006 10:52 AM
@41:
I don't think she is officially Jewish. And she's married to Guy Ritchie, isn't she?
45. jrzmommy - October 31, 2006 10:53 AM
41--But she is married. Remember Guy Richie, Mr. Madonna Cicconne? British fella.....Rocco's dad......."Snatch"? Anything?
46. PapaHotNuts - October 31, 2006 10:55 AM
@40- Do you have that backwards?
47. Brain Embolism - October 31, 2006 11:05 AM
#46 - Now that I look at it... maybe I do?
48. PrettyBaby - October 31, 2006 11:12 AM
Look how tight she has that tied on the poor baby!! I also wonder how much she had to pay her Kabbala cult leader for their newest little follower.
And as an Irish/Italian/English Catholic girl, she really fucking pisses me off. No one cares what odd cult she wishes to join, but why does she have to crucify herself and stuff??? And why do people accept it?? Remember that bald lady that ripped up a pic of the Pope and everyone was pissed. Robert DeNiro wanted to kick her ass.
Thanks a lot, you have all turned me into a political nutcase too. Hope your happy. Except I am still smoking hot and obviously have a good self-esteem.
49. biatcho - October 31, 2006 11:12 AM
#44 - sshhh! don't tell Madonna any of that. She might be listening.
50. commissioner - October 31, 2006 11:39 AM
jrz- I'm pissed at my spousal unit who knocked over a four thousand dollar mailbox last night.
51. jrzmommy - October 31, 2006 11:41 AM
commish: what mailbox costs $4K? And what the fuck did he knock it over for? Well....I think the only advice I can give to you is to go get a cute intern who wants to remain on an upward career trajectory to give you a little therapy.
52. commissioner - October 31, 2006 11:58 AM
jrz- those fancy ones in the suburbs that have lights, glass blocks and planters. Just hope some fucker doesn't pick up a brick to toss through a window before I get home.
The post office called wanting to know where to put the mail and and I said, "stick it in Mr. Commish's slot". Of course, they'd have to pull my foot out of it first.
53. Reid - October 31, 2006 12:09 PM
Yeah, God forbid someone might stare at Madonna. Didn't she spend the first thirty years of her career crying out to be worshipped, and now that she's fallen into the non-singing, non-acting, baby-stealing portion of her career, she wants to do a 180.

Let's see a life as a kidnapped child-soldier in some African shithole or a life as an accessory to the most self- centred slut in the universe.
kid's fucked either way. I hope one day he strangles her with that fucking string.
56. Laffinmybuttoff - October 31, 2006 5:32 PM
Amazing, each of the kids have their own nanny and are walking several steps away from Madonna. The paid for one is being held by her but, she wants to keep the evil looks away from him....hmmm
Hes adorable though.
57. bunnyhugger - October 31, 2006 5:45 PM
you know, my mom used to tie a red string around my wrist every time we went to disneyland.
ah, yes, a helium mickey mouse balloon always kept me safe from the evil eye.
stupid woman.
58. Ambassador of Sexy - October 31, 2006 7:37 PM

"You. You will be Oombata Mutombo Estevez III."
"Yes massa."

65. MeganHarris - November 1, 2006 6:35 PM
Why is Madonna so damn friggin' annoying lately. I mean seriously.. i don't care about her anymore.. or her stupid adoption.
66. ffordegroupie - November 1, 2006 9:39 PM
You know she lied to that poor African guy, because if she said, "Oh no, he'll be raised in my creepy money-hungry cult" he might not have handed him over.
And she's already got the kid wearing her absurd little red string, and dressed like a "homie." I bet she wants him to rap too.
I guess she's holding her new accessory for the moment, since people are pissed at her. But soon he'll be trotting seven paces back, with the nannies and her other kids.
And if Mad Madge wants to fend off nasty looks, maybe she should act like a human being for once, and not buy babies just to make herself look like a person worth attention.
Oh, and nobody would give a damn about Mad Madge's beliefs, if she would shut up. But she jams them in people's faces as often as possible, and preaches religious tolerance as she pisses off other religions. Nobody likes a hypocrite -- and a preachy one is the worst kind.
67. RebJam - November 2, 2006 1:57 PM
Am I the only one wondering with the interviews and photos. .where is Mr. Madonna? Guy Ritchie?
68. JackUup - November 4, 2006 4:36 AM
Wow..Richport (and other racist posters)..to hate Black people so much... you Sure DO like to waste your time posting about Blacks and 'studiying' them.
Are you mad because YOU dont have a life or something. What is the deal with all the racist comments. Why even waste your time? You hate black people so much, why dont you just ignore?? Remember the 'Bully' at school?? There was ALWAYS something wrong with THEM ... (mentally usuallly) thats why they always picked on people that they thought were 'less' than they were. If you learn to love yourself, you wouldnt do that. You hate yourself. Thats why you do it.
69. HollywoodSnark - March 21, 2007 9:39 PM
yeah, i'm sure that's gonna help the kid adjust real well
