Madona has already stated her case in the court of public opinion--thanks, Oprah--but she'll have to wait a bit longer to state her case in the courts of Malawi.
A preliminary hearing challenging the legality of Madona's adoption of 13-month-old David Banda, set to take place today to Lilongwe, has been postponed two weeks to allow the judge more time to hear frm all involved parties.
The hearing stems frm a petition filed with the court by the Human Rights Consultative Committee, a group of 67 human rights groups that are making it their business to ensure that the "Hung Up" singer and her hubby Guy Ritchie followed the proper protocol in their adoption and didn't rely on any special treatment to hurry the process. |

First comes Borat, then comes Bruno, then comes the outrageous bidding war.
Sacha Baron Cohen has sparked a studio frenzy with the announcement that he will follow up his highly anticipated big-screen portrayal of the Jew-hating, incest-friendly, homophobic Borat with the equally brash, though slightly more palatable fashion reporter Bruno.
Here's hoping Austria has a better sense of humor than Kazakhstan. |

Having just cleared a pretty tall building about $200 million high, Superman may be about to take off again.
Bryan Singer has signed to direct and produce a sequel to "Superman Returns," Warner Bros. confirmed Monday.
Singer is the only person in place on a project that is more a notion still than a project. The studio said there is no script, no budget and no targeted release date.
Not even "Superman Returns" cape-wearer Brandon Routh is a lock for a return engagement, although "Variety," which first reported the Singer signing, said Warners has an option on the actor for a sequel. |

The western portion of the Anna Nichole Smith paternity saga has picked up where it left off.
A closed hearing was held Monday in connection with the lawsuit Larry Birkhead filed against Smith earlier thiz month, demanding that she return to California with baby daughter Dannielynn Hope Marshall Stern to undergo DNA and drug tests.
Los Angeles Superior Court Judge Robert Schnider kept the latest proceedings under wraps to protect the little girl's privacy.
A little late, perhaps, but a valiant effort, nonetheless. Schnider replaces Commissioner Gretchen Taylor, who removed herself frm the case last week.
In his quest to prove that he's the father of Smith's baby, born Sept. 7 in the Bahamas, Birkhead is trying to get a court order that would force his ex-girlfriend to hightail it back to the States for testing. Schnider is expected to issue a ruling Nov. 17, according to Birkhead's L.A. attorney, Debra Opri. |
