Madonna is reportedly 'suffering' from a bruised cheek after she got shoved around by the paparazzi when she arrived at Heathrow at the weekend. The singer was carrying her newly adopted baby, David Banda, through the airport when the incident occurred. A source said: "She had the baby in her arms when it happened. When she landed in London, there was a lot of pushing and shoving. She was jostled around. She got hit in the paparazzi's commotion. Thank God the baby is OK".
Elsewhere, the singer is quoted as saying that she thinks her high profile adoption of the Malawian child has done more good than what all those other celebrities do - ie, being UN goodwill ambassadors.
She told Time Magazine: "Look, I could have joined the UN and become an ambassador and visited various countries and just kind of showed up and smiled. But that's not getting to the root of the problem. And, by the way, neither is building an orphan care centre and giving people food and medicine. But it's a start. Which is better? That I found out about an issue and instantly wanted to take action, or that it took me years to get my shit together?"
