Madonna to adopt Brixton

Madonna today announced plans to adopt Brixton. At a secret hearing last week the 48 year old pop star was granted an interim custody order of the London suburb. Under the order Brixton will live with the singer and her husband at their home in Pimrose Hill for up to eighteen months after which full adoption can take place. Some charities have criticised the adoption but a spokesman for Madonna said this afternoon that she is delighted with the news. "This is a great opportunity for Brixton and great news for the whole of south London."
