: Looks like there may be a new member of the "African Adoption" club. A South African official confirmed to MediaTakeOut.com that Oprah's pal, Gayle King, is trying to adopt an African girl.
According to the official, who spoke exclusively to MediaTakeOut.com, Gayle's already found the girl she wants to adopt. The insider explains, "The young lady is 2 years old with big beautiful eyes ... and she has the most precious smile you've ever seen."
And the insider claims that Gayle is pretty deep into the adoption process already. The official tells, "She's hired an [adoption] agency and lawyers, so she's well on her way." The source continues, "With the manner she's moving, the entire thing could be completed in a few months."
Adopting South African children is notoriously difficult for United States citizens. According to the State Department website, legal restrictions could drag the process out for two years or longer.

In my opnion i think its great these celebrities r adopting in these other countries, not taking anything away from american children, but they don't have running clean water, bathrooms, in africa. the living conditions is just far worse then america, to me. America has so much power its just used for all the wrong reasons.
Why does it matter if she adopts a child from Africa? Its her CHOICE to do so! So what if it's not a child from here in the US! Has anyone on this board adopted who is talking smack about who she choose to adopt?! So we should not talk at LEAST she is doing something to help a child in need and an African one at that! That is a third world country that desperately needs help and if se wants to help one of the impoverished children there then so be it!
Granted, we have impoverished children here but we also have welfare, foodstamps, free healthcare for children (Child Health Plus), clean water and a host of other programs geared towards children that those children in Africa don't have.
PS: Even if it is a fad to adopt African Children....Its a GREAT fad that needs to be kept up! As long as they are being taken care of, great!
THE WOMAN HAS NO SENSE OF STYLE..SO SHE NEEDS A STYLIST INSTEAD OF THINKING SHE CAN GET AWAY WITH AN EXPENSIVE DRESS AND SHOES AND LOOK GOOD..HER OUTFIT AND MAKE UP AND EVEN THAT WIG COSTS A LOT OF MONEY..SHES JUST NOT WEARING IT RIGHT..TRUST ME, SHES OPRAHS BEST FRIEND SO SHES NOT SHOPPING AT WALGREENS FOR MAKE UP AND SHES NOT GETTING WIGS FROM THE KOREAN BEAUTY SUPPLY STORE IN THE GHETTO..HAVE YALL EVER SEEN OPRAH WHEN SHES NOT ON TV? SHE LOOKS LIKE A BEAST! WHEN THEY SHOW HOME MOVIES OF HER, SHE LOOKS 10 TIMES WORSE THAN GAYLE..EVEN SHE GETS EMBARASSED..GAYLES A PRETTY WOMAN, SHE JUST NEEDS THE HELP OF SOME PROFESSIONALS TO GET HER LOOK TOGETHER
Sexy93 my words exactly. it's ashamed these celebrities are so cloned in their efforts, when they should be genuine. Believe it or not Gayle/Oprah know how hard it is in this country for a little black girl.(if they can remember) Anyhow that's who needs our help first. Ever since Angelina J. started to adopt and the United Nations made her an Ambassador, everyone's getting on board, it's pathetic. Face it, they will never have the same respect in doing this as Angelina J. does because at this point they only look like copy cats who are using our children to wear on their arms as eye candy.
ROTFLMAO @ THETRUTH55! Man that was funny as hell, I spit out my damn coffee fooling with you people here on mto!
I cosign with gigi2007...
Gotdayum you do have a point, it is their choice, but if I had the money and resources I will clean up home first and foremost, and welfare isn't as simple as everyone assume it is, they even have a time limit now 5years! And standard there are thousands of children without water food and shelter here in this country trust me... and these so called homeless shelters and refugees house suck, and the staff is fukin mean to the people, I can go on for days, I have seen a lot and I feel like they can atleast consider the children here first, but I will say this adopting in America is a damn scandal political entity in itself, and its very difficult but it don't hurt to try...
good point dr burke...
YES YES YES [SPAM]!!!!!!!!
GAIL looks like, a celebrity on Tales from the crypt.. ALL THAT MONEY AND HER AND WHOOPIE GOLDBERG, PUT black women to shame....
WHAT THE HELL!!!!!!!!!!! IS WRONG WITH US... NO iam not gonna excuse her , cause she adopting a child from africa...Its probably really oprah adopting and to stay away from the lime light, and fuss, she put gail ass up to legalling representing her., How you gonna build a school in africa and not adopt at least one child??? I LIKE OPRAH BUT, HER BUTT DONT MATCH HER BODY EITHER, SHE NEED LIPO ON THAT TUG BOAT BOOTY OF HERS.. SHE ALSO NEEDS A FREAKIN,,, FACE LIFT , HER AND GAIL....
OPRAH: IS a mega celebritie.. every one likes her so do i.. but she is becoming to be a little phoney, HER AND GAIL.....

OFFICE,, FOR A MATTER OF FACT,, I WILL HELP YOU HOLD THEM HOSTAGE UNTIL THEY MAKE YOU LOOK LIKE BEYONCE OR HALLE IN THE FACE HA!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! WE MAY GO TO JAIL... BUT DAM YOU WILL END UP WITH A MAN...AT LEAST.. WHO THE [EXPLETIVE] WOULD DATE HER????? YOU SEE SHE AINT GOT NO MAN...??? CLUE #1 OUT OF 100 PROBLEMS WITH GAIL.....PEACE
I can just picture her in the morning wearing a stocking cap on her real hair, looking at those cheap auburn wigs sitting on styrofoam heads. She prolly has a different one for each day of the week. "Do I want to wear the Alexis today or the Honeydew? I want that Sanfrancisco look, I'll go with the Alexis." Gayle, ya still look like a cadaver ma!
OH HELL NO........................ ADDITIONAL LET ME ADD.... THE REASON I HEAR CELEBRITIES , DONT ADOPT FROM THE STATES IS BECAUSE., THEY will have to deal with the childs paternal familie members.. and americans ,, will creat a stink if they know oprah or angelina has ,, their babie or child.. they will call up the national enquirer in a minute... AND IF I WAS A CELEBRITIE I WOULD NOT ADOPT HERE IN THE UNITED STATES EITHER,, IF THAT IS THE STAKES... THAT IS A HIGHT COST TO PAY,.. TO ADOPT A CHILD HERE..... CELEBRITIES HAVE ENOUGH PROBLEMS ALREADY... THEY are not gonna see a train comin and lay on the tracks and wait on it... you dig... so i hope you sensible , and smart people understand that point... ok???? AND YOU KNOW FOLKS WILL DO ANY THING TO GET A DOLLAR..... IF THEY COULD EVEN GET A HAIR STRING OF A CELEBRITIE,, THEY WILL MAKE A STORIE ABOUT IT ... HA~!!! STRANGE BUT TRUE.....
I agree that you should be able to adopt a child from where ever you please, but it does seem like the latest fad in this country especially amongst celebrities, is to adopt kids from outside of the country. I do however believe that Gail and Oprah give back big time to under previlaged children in this country and have donated millions to programs to better the lives of not only children but people here. I have worked with foster children through a mentoring program and it just breaks my heart that these kids sometimes stay in the sytem with no real family until they are 18.
But on a lighter note, you know Gayle looks crazy, why are people getting mad because we are saying it!!!! She probably looked at this picture and joked about herself.......
Jane, gurl u on point. If someone like Madonna tried to adopt an american baby, the birth mom would b all over the fact that she can possibly get some kinda money. I totally agree, I have so much respect for Angelina Jolie and how dedicated she is. U can tell who's for real and who's doing it for TV. There's so many programs that's available to children here, then anywhere else. American is suppose to b the land of opportunity, its not the same for other countries.
People, people....are any of you that are African American adopting? First off, domestic (here in the US) adoption can be very difficult. Jumping through hoops, meeting ridiculous requirements and hoping that a child in the age range you wish to adopt is available. Then for children and babies within a certain amount of time after you have gone through the entire process, the mother has 48 hours to just up and change her mind. Also, many of the children in the system here in the US are not newborns and are minorities with many behavioral issues, mental problems, health issues and so on. Although they shouldn't many states still get away with keeping white families from adopting minority children. International adoptions are for those who can afford it. Most of the children are very young and have been in orphanages since birth. No one is trying to reclaim them and their only experiences are from the orphanage. Because you are not dealing with the US Government and you have money, there is a clear cut plan. You know what you need to do and what you will have to take care of from start to finish until you bring you child home to the US.
Just because celebrities and those who can afford international adoption are in the limelight, doesn't mean there aren't people in the US that adopt domestically. They aren't rich and/or famous. I recall seeing a story on Nightline or 20/20 or something like that where this small northern town adopted children. It started with one family that adopted two brothers I think. Their friends started looking into it and then their church got involved so many of the church members adopted children as well. It was a beautiful story, many families adopting children from different ethnic backgrounds into diverse families. So if celebrities want to join the fad and adopt overseas so be it. It's only a big deal because the media makes it so. Again, minority children make up the majority in the system; yet minorities are the least likely to adopt.
For all of you who continue to whine about why Americans are not adopting American children, go ask your local social services agency or state government. I know several black people who did or want to adopt and here's what happened:
1) One couple in their 40s were told they were too old (they are professionals with a beautiful home and would be great parents. He has children from a previous marriage and is a wonderful father). Would they have been too old if they were able to have their own biological child? Heck, no.
2) Another childless couple put in their paper work and they just got 2 boys after 6-7 years of paperwork!!!! They almost gave up!
3) The house inspections and paperwork are very expensive too.
It's not about filling out paperwork and getting a child. It is expensive, time consuming and frustrating in the U.S to adopt a child, yet there are thousands of black children who need loving homes. Go figure that out for me please.
Gayle looks horrible in this picture. The black circles under her eyes. She's either not aging well or needs some serious sleep. Also, her wig doesn't fit. Why do women wear wigs and you can see their hairline?
I agree with you smplyred, there is a lot of red tape here in the US with adoptions. I also agree that there are a low number of African Americans who adopt. The reason why, I wish I knew. I truthfully think we as black people should be foster and adoptive parents for reasons other than money and attention. There are a lot of children here in the system who need a home and many qualified black people who can take them in.
missnellypoo I agree you have one of the richest women in the world as your best friend and you look like that. **** another thing.. there are plenty of children here in the U.S. that need homes, why go to Africa... These celebs want black girl butts, Lips, Skin Color and now our babies. what the hell is going on here*****
missnellypoo - Uptight? Does the truth hurt babydoll? If the subject matter is too complicated for you then maybe you need to find the comics page and grab yourself a box of crayons. If you have nothing better to contribute to the world than dogging a grown woman like Gayle King who has more money than you will ever have and is actually making a difference in the world then I'd suggest fingerpaints too.
[EXPLETIVE], I guess it is the "in thing" to adopt traditional African children. FU-- all the black kids in the good OLE' USA that need a good home. I'm sure many will disagree, but this wreaks of self-hate, and total disregard for young black children in America. Oprah once said she stopped giving money to inner city schools, because when she went to visit all kids cared about was video games and the latest tennis shoes, and clothing. it is there choice, but as rich positive African Americans, you would think they would at least consider children from the inner cities and areas they actually grew up in. To hell wit Oprah and her six to havin azz, and Gayle wit her sniifin, in Oprah azz 2!!!
that is what I been hollering OD! and from what these post are saying, blame it on our adoption programs and the difficulty, well okay, if that is the problem, shouldn't we get to the bottom of it instead of saying [EXPLETIVE] it I'm going to go adopt out of the country for the cheap (because that is the main real reason), if our system is the problem and is the cause for these rich people to adopt out of the country then they need to lobby and reform the system, they have enough money, and since the dollar bill rule america they shouldn't have no problem with gettin it done, so I higly doubt the system is the main reason these rich people adopt out of the country, they have enough money to fix the system... trust...
and for the person who asked "what are we doing? have we adopt?" if we had OPrah money then we can discuss something like that, until then we are doing the best we could by addressing the issue and putting it out there... [link to external website]
GAYLE JUST WISH SHE WAS IMPORTANT LIKE OPRAH IS. I SEEN HER AT LUTHER VANDROSS VIEWING AND LUTHER'S BEST FRIEND FONZIE THORNTON WAS TALKING TO ME AND HE SAID HERE IS OPRAH'S BESTFRIEND GAYLE. I LOOKED HER UP AND DOWN AND CONTINUED MY CONVERSATION WITH FONZIE AND SHE CAUGHT A LITTLE ATTITUDE BECAUSE I DIDN'T ACKNOWLEDGE HER LIKE SHE WAS A REAL CELEBRITY. I'M LIKE, B I T C H PLEASE, YOU STILL AIN'T NOBODY TO ME. YOU JUST LUCKY TO HAVE A RICH FRIEND BECAUSE WITHOUT OPRAH, NO ONE WOULD KNOW GAYLE. SOME PEOPLE STILL DON'T KNOW WHO SHE IS. SHE COULD HAVE ADOPTED A CHILD RIGHT FROM THE USA BUT SINCE OPRAH IS INVOLVE WITH THINGS GOING ON IN AFRICA, GAYLE JUST WANT TO BE TOO.
i admire every single person who is adopting these african children. at least someone is doing it and at least the majority of these people seem to be providing great homes/lifestyls for these children and appear to be sincere about it. i feel as though, if you are going to do what the hell someone else is doing why not start adopting OUR children if you know in your heart you will take the best care of them. this of course is..."my opinion" ^_^
FOCUS, I DEFINITELY AGREEW ITH YOU..THYE MAKJE IT VERY DIFFICULT TO ADOPT CHILDREN IN THE US..EVEN WHEN YOU TRY TO ADOPT THROUGH FOSTER CARE, THEY PUT YOU THROUGH SO MUCH..THE PARENT COULD BE A HOPELESS CRACKHEAD THAT ADMITS TO NOT WANTING THE KID, BUT THE LAW IS THE LAW, AND UNFORTUNATELY THE LAW GIVES THESE PARENTS SEVERAL CHANCES AND TIME TO GET THEIR KIDS BACK BEFORE THEY TERMINATE THEIR PARENTAL RIGHTS..ITS SAD..SOME CHILDREN ARE IN FOSTER CARE FOR YERS BEFORE A PARENTS RIGHTS ARE FINALLY TERMINATED..PARENTS DESERVE A CHANCE TO GET THEMSELVES RIGHT, BUT THE LAWS NEED TO BE TOUGHER ON THE AMOUNT OF TIME PARENTS HAVE TO TURN THEMSELVES AROUND AND GET THEIR KIDS OUT OF THE SYSTEM..i KNOW MANY PEOPLE WHO HAVE TRIED TO ADOPT THEIR FOSTER KIDS AND IT TAKES YEARS OF COURT DATES, MEETINGS, THERAPY, BROKEN PROMISES AND SO MUCH BULLSH*T THAT PEOPLE JUST WANT TO GIVE UP
Since when do many black people become proactive and try to change things with this generation? Those days are long gone. If it weren't for the generations before us we'd still be sitting in the "colored" section. A few voices for adoption reform in this country won't make a bit of difference, we need several hundred people or thousands to reform the silly adoption laws in this country.
We pay too much for gas right now and no one can explain why. All we get are a bunch of excuses yet when the price of a barrel of oil is down the gas prices are still up. Some things just can't be changed without leadership and that's lacking right now. Start by getting your community to write letters to their politicians. That's a start. I've seen too many potentially great parents denied the right to take in a child and give him a loving and nurturing home due to red tape.
HOT DAYYUM!!! THIS BI.TCH LOOK HORRIBLE.IT LOOK LIKE SHE PUT THIS MAKEUP ON HERSELF. SHE DIDNT EVEN GET THE WHOLE LIP. OPRAH SHOULD BE SHAMED SH*T I'M SHAMED AND I DONT EVEN GOTTA WALK AROUND WITH THE UGLY BROAD. OPRAH PLEAAAZE I BEG OF YOU GET THAT GAYLE SOME HELP CUZ WHO EVER DO UR MAKE UP BE WORKING WONDERS TOO CUZ WE ALL KNOW YOU LOOK LIKE SH*T TOO UNDER ALL THAT POWDER AND GLOSS,LOL
AND ON THE ADOPT A CHILD ISSUE...I'M HAPPY SHE'S TRYING TO REACH OUT BUT IS THIS A TREND OR SOMETHING? ADOPT AN AFRICAN CHILD AND UR NOW AT THE TOP OF UR GAME? COME ON NOW THE LIL KEVANTE'S AND KAMEEKA'S NEED LOVE TOO!! THIS IS WHATS WRONG WITH OUR WORLD..PAYING ATTENTION TO EVERYBODY ELSE EXCEPT FOR WHOS IN OUR DAYYUM COUNTRY..THE BASTARDS!!
On a more pertinent note...@ got_dayum: the U.S. is the ONLY developed or developing country that DOES NOT offer basic universal health care to all of its inhabitants (citizen or otherwise)! Our adoption laws are ridiculous, but I agree that some of these celebrities could facilitate reform with their influence while adopting all the babies they want from wherever they want. Kids need adequate health care, and with so many jobs making it unaffordable (WALMART!!) for employees to carry coverage for themselves or their families, the average person here couldn't adopt a child if they wanted to. FYI, the number one cause for bankruptcy in the U.S. is MEDICAL BILLS...many of "our" kids require specialized care due to HIV, mental/physical disability, etc. Insurance companies stay "cutting costs" and even those with coverage may soon find themselves with no coverage for a child's needs and no ability to pay outta pocket. We aren't the richest country because we share our wealth...we're rich because the notion of capitalism has no allegiance. The rich make there money off those "beneath" them and drop us like bad habits when we start costing them more than they think we're worth!
Yall are HILARIOUS!!!! Seriously, as pointed out in previous posts, it takes time and money to adopt kids in the US. Gayle, has the time and the money. So there really is no excuse for these "celebrities" to go to other countries and adopt children. Plenty of children here that need good homes and love. Unfortunately, these adopted kids are the newest in fashion wear.
gail looks like the hottest mess i've seen in a minute. dayum, oprah hook your girl up.why oh why.i don't know where to start,the weave, eyes face, make-up 'lip stick, i'm convinced ther are no mirrors at all anywhere. i'm tight right now, what the fck.all that money/didn't they just go to the spa in arizona,and wonders why she can't get a man .drea
If you've been to South Africa, like I have, you would know that the worst projects in the US have nothing on the shantytowns near Jo'burg, where a kid will straight get 1) starved to death; 2) AIDS; 3) raped; or 4) all around f'ed up. The US is one of the only places with fat poor people. Although there are kids needing adoptions here, it simply is worse in Africa.
Y ALL YA'LL BE WORRYIN ABOUT HOW OTHER PEOPLE look????? [EXPLETIVE] NOT EVERYONE IS BEAUTIFUL, MOST LIKELY THEY PROBABLY kno THEY NOT DA BEST LOOKIN PEOPLE BUT BRING THEM DOWN AIN'T HELPPIN THEIRS SELF STEEMS. MOST OF YA'LL DAt CALLIN EVERYONE UGLY PROBABLY UGLY AS [EXPLETIVE] N YA'LL TRYIN TO MAKE YA'LL SELF FEEL BETTER!!!!!, INSURITIES DAMN GROW DA [EXPLETIVE] UP, CUZ EVERYTHIN AIN'T BASE ON LOOKs. [EXPLETIVE] I LOOK good BUT I DON'T BASE ON MY BEAUTY most of da time.I BASE ON MY INTELLIGENT N BEING HUMBLE TO OTHERS!
secondly, because she has $ doesn't mean her hair is expensive. please! i guess you don't look at these celebrities. b.spears is always in a cheap wig these days. did you see robert johnson's daughter on the bet awards when he resigned from ceo? amTRACKS everywhere!!! and both of her parents are black billionaires. money simply doesn't buy class or style, it buys a stylist. come better.
I got a question, who read the headline, you shiftless negros, done turned this into a story about how she looks, once again showing just how ignorant black folk are. Something important could be going on right under most of yall stupid azz noses, and yall would make a joke out of it. Nig--- always joking and laughing. Everythign aint funny. Half you idiots probably don't vote, and don't do sh-- for the community, but yall can "jone" real good. I feel sorry for yall damn kids. "Mom dad I got homework" Don't do it son just start joning in class and make everybody laugh and they will forget all about that homework you did not do because we did not help you. Damn yall ignorant.
realwoman, if I could afford to I would, but I know how ruff it is to adopt here, everyone does, so that mean fuk these american children cuz its hard to, and lets go adopt out of the country cuz its easier? I never bashed angelina for adopting outside of the country because I feel she genuinely wants a kid from every country, lol, and she got alot of props for it, so I think all the rest of these celebs are only jumping on the bandwagon... but like I stated in my earlier post if the adoption procedure is so hard here, and they "really" want to adopt american children but its laws that will forbid them to, why won't they reform the system?
but it is what it is, kudos to her for even adopting, for any celeb making any child life better, kudos to them.... I can't knock them for their charity cuz its more than I can do....
Strongblackwoman I'm assuming you are doing everything you can right now to afford an adopted child one day right? So why don't you try to reform the system in your own little way? That is something you can actually afford to do right now no matter how much money you are making. It doesn't cost much to send emails and write letters or get a campaign going...my point is that I don't think it is right for us to comment on what others do with their own hard earned money if we also aren't lobbying to do it. Look at all those commercials that talk about it only costing 70cents a day to feed a hungry child yet millions of people still go buy coffee in the morning instead of sending that money to those hungry children. Who are we to say how people with money should spend it...especially if they are spending it to do good...no matter where that good is. Just my 2 cents...
Btw, Angelina Jolie is no more genuine than anyone else just because she is the latest (no not the first) celebrity in the new millenia to adopt a foreign child. I can't criticize..I am just happy someone is doing it because I sure wish I could.
oh please realwoman those damn things on television 90% are scams you don't watch the news? lol, it is what it is real and quite frankly you don't know what half these people are doing with their lives... seriously cuz someone is on a damn gossip blog don't mean they ain't participating in their community lol, and yes I write several letters to my congressman, I was a political science major, lol...
And I don't give a rats behind what these celebs do with their money but I have a right to speak out just like I have a right to send letters to congress man, these people adopting outside of the country is shyting on the children here in this damn country who don't have no where to go, and my thing IF I HAD THEIR MONEY I WOULD CLEAN UP HOME FIRST AND FOREMOST... but yet her and Oprah complain about the kids in this country don't want nothing but jordans and ipods, okay if that is the case then make it better, how you go complain about something and don't do nothing about it? isn't that what you are hawking at me...
Cuz a person have money don't excuse them from shyt, you right its their money, and we aren't telling them how to spend it, but my thing if they are so gunho about adopting needy children what happen to the ones at home? how can our country get better if you aren't trying to make the next generation minds right? shyt these celebs are bad as these big ass corporations taking businesses over seas and fuking over these hard working people who can't find jobs cuz everything is over damn seas! but that is an entire different argument, lol....
BUT REALWOMAN IT IS WHAT IT IS AND THAT'S MY OPINION, AND I'M STICKING WITH IT, LOL.... joking...
That's just scary. Why would her old azz wanna adopt a child now? Angelina started a trend. Its babies that need help here, right in this very country. If all the celebs would put their money together we could save the children here, there, and everywhere. People need to get with it. We need to make a way for the children of today the children here are going to be the leaders of tomorrow. The way things are going it isn't looking to bright. Anyways its a plot to outshine Oprah, its not gonna work. Gayle has been jealous of O since forever.
