Reports say Madonna may have plans to take up residency in Malawi after her adoption bid was rejected earlier this month.

The singer's lawyer has said Madonna will appeal a court ruling that determined she was not eligible to adopt three-year-old Mercy James because she had not lived in Malawi.

"Madonna has a big beautiful plot of land over there already," a source told The Sun UK (via NY Post). "She's planning to build a girls school. But she's gone back to the designers and asked if they could accommodate a family home on the plot or on adjacent land."

  • Obviously Madonna can go and stay from time to time in Malawi but not staying there for ever. This is ludicrous. Anyway, Mercy deserves Madonna and Madonna deserves Mercy. Love always wins.

  • Madonna has proven herself a responsible, creative, strong person. She is, as far as an outsider can tell, a competent parent. The opposition to her effort to adopt is motivated by jealousy, envy, and greed. Poverty in Malawi is such that anyone...
