Wyclef Jean pleads for adoption

Not for himself, of course, no one would consider taking him in, but no, Wyclef Jean is pleading with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie to adopt a child from Haiti in order to help the country through its crisis… even though the two have already donated one million dollars to the cause. This is what Wyclef Jean said on the matter: “Brad and Angie, please! Please adopt a child from Haiti! I have so many celebrity friends who have really supported this cause and who continue to support this cause. Our job is to help those little kids, to give them a chance. If we give them a chance they’ll have a better tomorrow.” Don’t they have enough kids already? They could breed a whole army at this rate. The sun must be messing with Wyclef Jean’s head, the rebuilding or building of a school would help a lot more than adopting one child… or perhaps a home for orphans, for that matter.
