    "貧民窟的百萬富翁"是這屆奧斯卡的大贏家，但是在典禮之后，阿里和她的明星伙伴回到了貧民窟的生活。在2009年4月，阿里的父親否認他試圖賣他女兒的報道，聲稱這是被陷害的。在2009年6月，與阿里聯合主演的阿扎魯迪·穆罕默德·伊斯梅爾離開貧民窟搬到一個一居的公寓。據報道，電影制作人也同樣在為阿里尋找新家。

    Madonna and child

    麥當娜與收養兒童

    While actress Angelina Jolie's international adoptions have gone off relatively quietly, that's not always been the case for Madonna.

    In 2006, she adopted young David Banda from Malawi despite alaw that requires adoptive parents to live in the country for one year,which Madonna had not done. Then, in 2009, the singer returned to Malawi to adopt a 3-year-old girl, Chifundo "Mercy" James. That adoption was first approved, then rejected due to the residency rule.The country's highest court later OK'd the adoption. James Kambewa hascome forward and claimed to be the girl's father, but later admitted hehas never met her.

    盡管女演員安吉麗娜朱莉的國際收養事件已經相對平息，但對麥當娜確并非如此。

    在2006年，麥當娜從馬拉維收養了大衛班達，盡管當地法律要求收養人在國內居住一年，但麥當娜并沒有做到。之后，在2009年，麥當娜重返馬拉維收養另一個3歲的小孩Chifundo "Mercy"James.過程一波三折。一開始收養是順利的，后來由于當地居住法遭到拒絕。最后通過該國最高法庭的判決同意收養。收養過程中一個James Kambewa出現并聲稱是女孩的父親，但是后來承認他從來沒見過女孩。

    Tale of the tape

    "粗口門" 事件

    Christian Bale, star of "Terminator Salvation," blew up at the film's director of photography, Shane Hurlbut, in July 2008. Baleclaimed that Hurlbut had walked into his line of sight twice and ruinedhis concentration, and betlitted and theatened Hurlbut in a lengthy,disturbing tirade that was caught on audiotape.

    The tape was released in February 2009 and Bale eventually apologized, saying he "acted like a punk."
