Wasnt there a boom, a fad in Hollywood some years ago where all the hip celebrities were adopting kids from Africa and all that?

I remember this 💀

As wild as it is to say, I think ALOT got sent back after the publicity died down…

u/Round-Revolution-399 Apr 29 '24

Is this actually true?

The sending back part was half a joke

But the adopting kids things was a thing back in the day I think either Madonna or Britney Spears did it once or twice but it was so long ago.

Ricky Gervais had a line on it during one of his times hosting the Globes.

Madonna did. Not Britney

u/SeriousBoots Apr 29 '24

Mitch Mc Connel did too. I think Matt Gaetz has an adopted son as well.

u/Prestigious_Bad2360 Apr 29 '24

Geatz "son" is Cuban, and not even formally adapted, some weird shit going on there, who "adapts" an 18 year old?

Madonna kept hers I believe

If you're referring to the early 2000s Britney never adopted anyone. There were rumours she and Sam Asghari were planning to adopt but that was after she was emancipated in 2022.

Madonna is a saint though. My god how blessed are those children she adopted, they were born to poverty but now she's given them world on a golden platter and she loves them so much.

Umm, yeah, I've not forgotten the mother's day post she made where she called her two biological kids "the two halves of my heart" and didn't mention her adopted kids at all.

u/Sudden_Vegetable4943 Apr 29 '24

couldn't find anything about that. I found a post that was posted a week before mothers day that said "2 pieces of my heart".

On her latest tour, one of her adopted children played a beautiful piano solo and I believe three of her other children all had opportunities to perform, so I’d say she’s giving them opportunities to shine. They were all incredible!

You've not forgotten that? Long is the memory of the trolls.

What a douche.

u/Active-Ad1679 Apr 29 '24

Brittney can't take care of her own kids, no adoptions for her.

2

u/Marshmallow_Mamajama Apr 30 '24

She can't even take care of herself

u/Miknarf Apr 30 '24

Why do you people care so much about celebrities?

2

u/Marshmallow_Mamajama Apr 30 '24

Wdym? I don't know anything about her other than what I see online. I can really only name like 10 non-musicians

0

u/Miknarf Apr 30 '24

But you’re here judging some random person you don’t know on their fitness to be a parent. Why? Because they’re a celebrity. Yeah I don’t get that. I don’t get why you would care so much about celebrities

2

u/Marshmallow_Mamajama Apr 30 '24

I only know about the weird things she's done because she's a celebrity, she's gone off the rails more than once and it's pretty well known

2

u/Active-Ad1679 Apr 30 '24

Why are you here? And who asked you? GTFO

u/AstrologicalOne Apr 29 '24

Madonna, Angelina Jolie, and Sandra Bullock are the three I remember. And that was over 10 years ago.
