NEW YORK (AP) - May 2, 2009 James Kambewa (kam-BEH'-wah) is believed to be the biological
father of Chifundo (chee-FOON'-doh) "Mercy" James. He tells CBS
News in an interview to be broadcast Monday on "The Early Show"
he doesn't want the pop star to adopt the 4-year-old.
Kambewa says he's never met his daughter and has only seen her
picture in newspapers and on television.
Madonna spokeswoman Liz Rosenberg says she doesn't know if
Kambewa is the girl's father. She says the girl has been in an
orphanage all her life.
Madonna's appeal of a court ruling denying her request to adopt
the girl is to be heard Monday in Malawi. The singer already has
adopted a son from the southeast African nation.
