That was exacty what Madonna, 51, faced when she stepped off her private jet in Rio de Janeiro November 9 after flying there to meet Cristane Regina da Silva, 36, mom of the singer's model boyfriend Jesus Luz.
Christina was only 13 when she had Jesus.
The Material Mom would have been understandably on edge about meeting Jesus’ mother and his father Luis Heitor Pinto da Luz as rumors swirl that the pair could soon be getting engaged.

Madonna met Jesus on a photo shoot shortly after she split from ex-husband Guy Ritchie. Jesus' mother is a hairdresser in Rio. His father works in a local hospital.
A family insider told a London newspaper, “Madonna really does love and need Jesus and she does not hold all the power in the relationship. He wants to marry and be taken seriously.”
Earlier this year, Jesus' father said the couple was considering a "commitment ceremony" as a way of expressing their love and devotion to each other.

He may have a hard time convinving the twice-divorced Madonna to take another walk down the aisle however. She told David Letterman that she would rather "get run over by a train" than marry again following her divorce from British film director Ritchie.

Style File: ‘Exposing’ Celeb Photog Mark Liddell

What does it take to get a famed photographer to make a book these days? Apparently Jessica Alba and Barack Obama. That’s how fashion and celeb snapper Mark Liddell got the fever to publish his ten-year Hollywood retrospect Exposed.
“Jessica Alba rang me a year ago to do the Declare Yourself campaign to get kids to vote. That made me, as an Englishman, aware of American politics, which I was blissfully unaware of.”
Alba then turned him on to a then-fledgling politician Obama, whose platform was change.
“[From there], I actually wanted to do something with a purpose.”
Exposed was born, culminating countless star photographs from the likes of John Travolta, Janet Jackson, Christina Aguilera, Nicole Richie, Beyonce and Matthew McConaughey.
Liddell began shooting for houses like Versace and Fendi, and upon moving to Los Angeles (on the recommendation of Nicole Kidman), started playing with the lines between stars and style.

With her eldest daughter Lourdes at her side, Madonna cut cake, planted a tree and turned sod at a ceremony which drew 1,000 locals. "After seeing all the hard working Malawian women who are looking after families and communities, I realized how much they deserve to be educated," said Madonna.
According to a brochure for the Raising Malawi Girls Academy, it will be a "leadership institution to prepare future women leaders" with 500 boarders from each of the country's 28 districts. The school is modeled on the academy Oprah Winfrey set up in South Africa. It will take two years to build.
