Madonna has poured her heart out about how hard adopting a child from Malawi was. Last year the Queen Of Pop- currently top 5 with 4 Minutes- brought two year old David Banda into her family last year.

In an interview she revealed: It was painful and a big struggle and I didnt understand it I went through my own kind of birthing pains. Madge also hit back at critics of the move explaining: Yes his mother did die of Aids and yes I met his father and he absolutely agreed to the adoption. There is nothing controversial about the adoption.

The 49 year old singer was speaking at the Cannes film festival where her documentary on Malawi was given its premiere.
