David Banda and his Band of Madonna

Madonna arrives at LAX airport on Saturday night via a flight from London with her hubby Guy Ritchie, 38, and kids Lourdes, 10, Rocco, 6, and David Banda, 17 months. Looks like Madonna and Guy really are hands-on parents!

Madonna, 48, is said to be spending time in L.A. promoting her Confessions Tour CD/DVD and possibly working on her new album!! How exciting!!

Check out more pictures of Madonna, Guy, Lourdes, Rocco, and David here!

Cute family. It is nice to see little David settled with his new family. Guy Ritchie seems to be a hands on dad with all three children. Love the Movie, “Snatch” and his earlier work. Hopefully, he will get back into directing more. Madonna and Guy appear to be committed to making their marriage work. Good for them.

I wonder if Madonna will make time to pay a visit to Britney - I think that would mean a lot to Britney at this point and, if there’s any woman who could help her make the decision to get the help that she needs, it’s Madonna. Ironically it is often not close family members, but a third party that the person looks up to that can get through to them. Madonna helping Britney in her darkest hour - maybe wishful thinking on my part but it would be a compassionate gesture on Madonna’s part.

As for David - what a little cutie - and he is looking so happy and healthy. Of course Lourdes and Rocco are adorable too - nice to see this family together and looking happy.

I can’t stand Madonna but those are some cute kids! Lourdes is just stunning and the baby, David, is too adorable.

I like how Madonna doesn’t wax Lourdes’ eyebrows.
She’s a kid still and should be able to not have o worry about such things.
Just mentioningit because everytime I see pics of her, other people are mean about that.
I really like that Madonna is letting her children be kids.

I use to hate Maddona adopting a kid like angelina and I thought she wanted some publicity but now think that she really wants to help and if she is doing in it for publicity than sshe would not have adopted a kid and it seems that she really loves little David she is a great mother with her first two biological kids and she is going to be a great mother to her new adopted kid

Aww, they’re such a cute family!

For the love of God! Angelina is not the first celebrity to adopt a baby. I find it amazing that you cannot mention a mother or show a family without someone mentioning Angelina. Calista Flockhart, Michelle Phifer, not to mention Tom Cruise all adopted children when Angelina was running around kissing her brother, wearing vials of blood, and likcing the Jennie chick.

Beautiful family! LOVE them.

Give me a break! @ 02/18/2007 at 11:23 am

#11 amara,You need to calm down!Also what is the purpose of bring up what someone did 5+ years ago?Angelina is the most famous adoptive Mom that’s why people bring her up alot,just that simple!I wish the Richie family the best.

Ok have to admit; I love her!! Can’t help it. She’s the ultimate in my eyes. This said from someone who hates most celebreties.

Cute pix, thaks JJ.

I love the fact that Lourdes and Rocco love getting there picture taken unlike other celeb children who throw thier dummies out the pram. There both true stars!

absolutely loathe, attention grabbing ***** madge but david does appear to be settling in well so good for him.

David is sooo precious. Rocco is growing up real fast, but he’s still adorable. Lourdes looks so much like her mother when she was younger. Lovely family.

They are beautiful.

They seem so loving, I like that family a lot.

Madonna and family ALWAYS look happy together. Both Lola and Rocco have similarities to M. Glad to know that the little David is surrounded with sweet
family.

I noticed M wearing her “M” sunglasses! You probably heard of her “M” line with
H&M out in March 2007~

don’t get me wrong but the kid’s face says “what do these white monkeys want from me?”

Elenia- could you be more racist?! You idiot.

Beautiful family!

David has a very impressive and expressive face. beautiful child indeed.

Guy Ritchie shooting a pilot called “Suspect”, thats why they are all here.
Its his turn to work !
Its a cop crime drama like CSI.

I can see in the next few weeks that Just Jared will be posting photos of Little David, Rocco, Lola, Maddox, Zahara, Romeo, Brooklyn, Sean Preston and Jayden James playing together.

I think Madonna will pay a visit to Britney. She needs help desperately - before it’s too late. We’ve just seen ANS die in front of our very eyes - we’ve seen it from the moment she uttered a word in that show and we stood in front of our tv transfixed. We have always known the ending from day 1. I’ve snapped out of it.

BAMZS not welcome @ 02/18/2007 at 2:00 pm

It’s bad enough that any blog with Brad or Angelina subjects us to your obsession with this family.
Let us enjoy the ARTIST Madonna and her GORGEOUS daughter and adorable son with her equally talented husband. This couple have class!!! They don’t talk about fixing coffee machine’s and what color their next child will be. Madonna is a class act hard working women & an inspiration to all.
I am in total agreement with amara- Give me a Break- Give us a break!!!!!!!

Amara I agree with you.There were other people who adopted when Maddonna was sleeping with men and women and running wild

I love how people rewrite history and put their spin on celebrites. One day Madonna is being run out of town by a mob and the next she is on a pedestal. All celebrites, whether Madonna and Guy or Brad and Angie are just living their lives and taking care of their children. Both couple have decided to bring children or a child into their family of a different race. Each couple and all couples who adopt whether in the USA or overseas, different race or same race, are doing a good thing if it comes from the heart. Whether you are a BP and AJ fan, Madonna fan or both, it is all good.

they’re adorable!

this site is for everyone!!! @ 02/18/2007 at 2:37 pm

O.K. fine. i am sick of the way BAmZs fans talk, i wish they would leave their obsession for that family at that sad little forum.

Junky Says: I like how Madonna doesn’t wax Lourdes’ eyebrows.

Keh? I like how Madonna doesn’t inflict such intense pain to a child’s face!

Gotta admit though - that’s some eyebrow.

That´s the problem with these people- you shouldn´t have a child because you want to help.

Lourdes has quite the unibrow going on!!

Did anyone else notice that, when the cameras aren’t looking, it’s the husband carrying the African baby, but then it’s Madonna, and then it’s the husband again? Still not believing it, Madonna.

And Lourdes looks like she’s got a unibrow to me.

What an adorable family, so cute!

Amy, you an idiot, stfu.

The kids are so beautiful.

The real lou @ 02/18/2007 at 4:08 pm

Why are certain people insulting the childern?That is so WRONG!All 3 of the childern are beautiful.David looks well bonded with his new family,I wish this family much happiness.It doesn’t matter if you are a fan of Madonna or not, just be happy a child was saved from a rather bleak life in a orphanage.

they are magnifique Madonna as hot

like your last DVD confesssions tour great!!!!
and the picture of the family here is just MAGNIFIQUE!!!!!!!!!!

[Fug Face Maniston] @ 02/18/2007 at 4:25 pm

blah.

The Real Deal @ 02/18/2007 at 4:39 pm

What a cute looking little lad!

Why is David riding on Guy’s lap? and not in a car seat???

They look like a family, period, with three beautiful children. Hope David’s family in Malawi see how healthy and settled in he looks, and any concerns they have had as to the adoption are addressed. Wish them the best.

Madonna picked a real good man to marry. He loves the baby.

It’s so sweet to see.

Cute family. oh and you don’t adopt because you want to “help”. Help what?
You adopt for the same reason you get pregnant, to have a child. Madonna probably is at an age where she can’t have any more children and unwilling to do the science fiction way of getting pregnant. But she desired another baby. Race obviously didn’t matter to her.

green lettuce @ 02/19/2007 at 7:21 am

There are no races. One human race. The ‘races’ concept bugs me.

Purple lace @ 02/19/2007 at 9:18 am

Rocco is probably the cutest kid I’ve seen, he always looks so happy.

I can’t stand Madonna but I think it is great that she gave David a home. I just wish she wouldn’t dress Lourdes as a mini-me of herself. And sorry to disagree with Junky, she should wax her eyebrows, it doesn’t look good. There is nothing wrong with this even at a young age.

I ALWAYS knew Madonna would make an excellent mother. Always. She says she used to be somewhat like Britney, but I beg to differ. Yes, she wanted attention and was hurting because her mother died, but Madonna was always in control of her environment and not self destructive. When people are self-destructive you know that they don’t love themselves and have a lot of self-esteem issues. When you love yourself you don’t sit around drinking, drugging and boozing.

Madonna has always been strong and determined to do things her way. She’s had cameras following her for years, but it never bothered her. She likes the attention.

Madonna has very good maternal instincts and is not raising her children to be spoiled brats. She didn’t rush out like Britney and quickly have children when she married Sean Penn. She has a vision, a purpose in life, a plan. She’s simply an icon because she’s smart about her life and knew her abilities and how best to market them.

The new baby, David, fits right into the family. He looks healthy, happy and well-adjusted.

Aww it’s so beautiful to see people from different parts of the world
coming together as a family.

Without any cheeseball scandal, well kind of.

Latoya needs to get that one eyebrow plucked & her moustache waxed, ugleee Lolita Lourdes Maria Ciccone Penn Leon Pitchka Patata!

Nice photo op. I wonder what she has David doped up on. And Madonna will not play mentor to Britney unless she decides it’s the latest way to get her publicity. Actually, considering how much press Britney is getting, she may do just that!

Regarding this: “When people are self-destructive you know that they don’t love themselves and have a lot of self-esteem issues. When you love yourself you don’t sit around drinking, drugging and boozing.”
You don’t consider compulsive promiscuity and exercise bulimia self-destructive?

Madonna is not perfect and she had times of a little wildness, but no, I do not think she is self destructive. She’s driven. Madonna discovered that exercise plays a huge part in her life, probably helping her feel better and deal with daily stress. Plus, she looks fantastic and is not starving herself. I also don’t think Madonna was that promiscuous. She’s had lovers but she wasn’t just sleeping with a different man every night. She had some kind of relationship with these men… all of them.

Madonna just never seemed “lost” like Britney and all the other young girls in Hollywood.
