Madonna's shot-down adoption

Dear Star Savior,

Hi. It's Madonna. A court recently blocked me from adopting a child from Malawi, but I'm not ready to stop trying. This girl has already become attached, so I can't give up on adopting her. What do you think I should do?


Dear Madonna,

Just because the court blocked your adoption in Malawi doesn't mean you have to go empty-handed. I recommend kidnapping.

It turns out that there is a decent selection of African kids right here in the United States. The next time you see some, just help yourself. And stock up so you won't have to look for more when you run out. Even better, if you make sure the kids aren't related, you can breed them.

To be fair, I have to warn you that raising kidnapped children can lead to awkward conversations later. If they start asking questions, you should be totally honest with them. For example, "Where do babies come from? Parks. Why isn't my daddy here? Speed."

In case you're not sold on the idea, consider this: Kidnapping is a great workout. First, you chase the kids. Then, you might have to wrestle them away from their parents before you haul them off to your car. It's like Tae Bo with an Amber Alert.

If that's not enough for you, remember that kidnapping helps the economy. Instead of trying to save their money for things like college funds, the parents will spend money producing fliers, and they'll buy extra milk to look for their kids on the cartons.

On top of that, kidnapping is earth-friendly. First of all, no children are wasted, since kidnapping is just reuse of existing kids. And if you grab multiple kids on each trip, you'll be carpooling. Otherwise, all of those kids would ride home in each of their parents' cars. Also, the adoption process wastes a lot of paper, but kidnapping is paper-free. So do it for Mother Earth. Her kids take longer to replace.

I hope this helps you realize that you don't have to go all the way to Malawi for adoption. You might find your next African kid right in your own backyard — actually, someone else's.

Jennifer Aniston's pregnancy rumor

Dear Star Savior,

Hi. It’s Jennifer Aniston. There’s a rumor that says I’m pregnant and John Mayer is the father. My spokesperson denied the rumor, but I’m not sure that people are convinced. I recently was photographed wearing a tight shirt at a popular place in Hollywood, so that might help say I’m not pregnant. What do you think?


Dear Jennifer,

To fight a pregnancy rumor, being seen and photographed wearing a tight shirt is a decent try. But you need to make a bigger statement. If people think you're pregnant, let them see you hitting a bottle of maternity gin.

This is your chance to have fun with the pregnancy rumor by letting some vices speak for you. Go out for some heavy drinking and talk about plans for your baby’s first 12 steps. If anyone looks concerned about your drinking, tell them that every baby’s first words are slurred, anyway. Go to a bar wearing a fake pregnant belly and say you’re there to lose 6 pounds.

You can do the same thing with smoking. Tell people you’re doing it to keep the baby’s birth weight under control so it won’t have a gut. Say you're smoking cigarettes to load the baby up with Vitamin Tar. Light up while wearing a T-shirt that says "Baby On Board — For Now."

If you'd like to have a few friends over, hold a baby shower catered by Camel. Either they’ll realize that you’re not pregnant or the first baby-shower game will be an intervention.

Lindsay Lohan's 'colored' Obama comment

Dear Star Savior,

Hi. It’s Lindsay Lohan. In an interview, I said I was looking forward to having Barack Obama as “our first colored president.” It’s getting some attention. It's clear how much I support Obama, so that little slip-up isn’t a big deal, is it?


Dear Lindsay,

I understand your excitement about having a colored president, but there’s no time to sit back and enjoy it. It’s time to start thinking about the next election, so that Obama won’t be our last colored president.

You should use your status to encourage young people to “Spook the Vote.” You could organize a rally called the “Spade Raid.” And you could count on the full support of the colored community — once they get here in their time machines.

Kate Winslet's fake-fake-fur photos

Dear Star Savior,

Hi. It's Kate Winslet. I recently did a magazine photo shoot with supposedly fake fur that turned out to be real. It's a problem because I've spoken out against wearing fur. What do you think?


Dear Kate,

At first, I wondered why someone who is anti-fur would pose for pictures with fake fur, since it comes across as real fur and makes you look like a hypocrite. But now I get the point. It’s OK to take a stand — kind of. Now, it's time for you to spread the word.

Tell the people in Alcoholics Anonymous to loosen up. Go tell Mothers Against Drunk Driving that driving while drunk is good in moderation. And ask a few groups to ease up on child abuse because it might be a good workout. Remember: It’s OK as long as they take pictures.
