Madonna Spends $19,000 on Her Son

Madonna has splashed out £15,000 ($18,915.00) on toys for her adopted son.

The 'Hung Up' singer treated 13-month-old David Banda to a child-sized
electric car, a £5,000 rocking horse, giant cuddly toys and designer
clothes.

She has also decorated his nursery with giant murals of tigers and lions and
installed a surround-sound system.

A source told Britain's Daily Mail newspaper: "Madonna had great fun
choosing baby David's toys and accessories, getting him all the latest,
coolest gear. As well as a designer wardrobe, Madonna and Guy have laid his
bed with cotton and cashmere sheets and a music system will pipe out
classical music
.

"Madonna's only stipulation was that there was no television in his room. As
with her other two children, she doesn't want David growing up watching
mundane rubbish."

News of Madonna's shopping spree shocked residents in the Malawian village
where David was born. That amount of money could have paid for 10,000
chickens and 500 goats, or 10 mud huts
.

David's father Yohane, who sent his son to an orphanage after his wife died,
is hoping Madonna will rescue him from poverty.

Yohane, who earns 55p a day working on his onion crop, said: "In our
Malawian culture, if you are wealthy and your relatives are poor, you assist
in any way you can. I am not asking Madonna for anything, but when he is
brought here and sees our poverty, he will certainly ask his mom to help."

Tickets to Madonna's recent 'Confessions' world tour cost up to £160 - the
average Malawi villager earns £107 annually.

This is a discusting story. For madonna to spend such money ON mandane rubbish is just gross. If she was a true humanitarian, she would have rescued this boys father and allowed him to be with him. Or donate money for that village, she has enough. It just grosses me out how she can be the way she is. A pure disgrace, england can keep her.

Why feel the need to let everyone know what you’ve purchased?  It’s just a game for her ass to get attention and nothing more.

What 13 month old needs an electric car?? That’s going to be one fucked up kid.

The comment by his Dad about the little boy being “brought back” to his village and seeing the poverty and asking his Mom to help” is a little out of context.  The father said that he won’t miss little David as Madonna will be bringing him back to see him in THREE OR FOUR YEARS!  I really don’t know if the Dad really even grasps the whole situation yet.

Cashmere sheets and a sound system in his room?  Geesh, just what every little African semi-orphan needs to have in his life.  Give me a break.

“mundane rubbish”

better ban on her music and videos from the house while she’s at it.

and it silly to splash out tons of money on high-priced toys for a toddler. my nephew got a ton of expensive toys for christmas when he ws 18 months old. and he loved playing with the wrapping paper and empty boxes a million times more than his stupid talking dolls and other crap. he got an electric car that’s not even suitable for children under 5, it gather dust in the garage for over 3 years then when he was old enough to use it it wouldn’t work. what a frigging waste.  parents do that shit more for themselves than the kids to convince themselves they are giving their kids the best…thing is the kid don’t know the difference between goodwill and gucci. parents are better off giving them the best upbrining and love and support than fucking cashemere sheet for a kid that wets and shits the bed.

Gambitgirl - you can say that again - all of it.

Why lavish one little boy with so much when she could so much for so many kids?

Again, I reiterate, I wish Madonna would adopt me!!

Damn thats ALOT of money to spend on a 13 month old boy. Hes going to be one spoiled baby. I agree poppy she could adopt me!!!lol
