Madonna Has a Head Lice Problems

MADONNA is being driven to distraction by head lice!

According to reports, the pop superstar’s children — Lourdes, 13, Rocco, ten, and adopted David Banda, five, and Mercy James, four — were recently infected with the itchy and common childhood condition.

“One of her kids picked up head lice at school, and Madonna’s been totally panicked ever since,” a source told American tabloid the National Enquirer.

“She discovered the parasites when David and Mercy began scratching their heads like crazy.

“She checked their heads and discovered nits. Madonna just couldn’t believe it.

“She’s turned completely paranoid. She just can’t let go of the idea that the bugs are still on her kids and have spread through her home.”

Madonna, 52, recently revealed that she was a “weirdo” at school, and felt “isolated and alienated” from the other children.

“I can totally relate to the idea of feeling isolated and alienated,” she said. “I was incredibly lonely as a child, as a teenager. I have to say I never felt like I fit in, in school. I wasn’t a jock. I wasn’t an intellectual. There was no group that I felt a part of. I just felt like a weirdo.”

The singer added she still feels “different”, but praised the gay community where she grew up in New York for their support. She then went on to voice her concern over a present spate of teen suicides in the US.

“I’m incredibly disturbed and saddened by the overwhelming number of teen suicides that have been reported lately because of bullying,” she said.

“Teenagers committing suicide is extremely disturbing, but to hear that teenagers are taking their lives because they are being bullied in schools and dormitories is kind of unfathomable.”
