Pop superstar Madonna is joining forces with former boxing champion Mike Tyson for a charity campaign to promote awareness of children with HIV and AIDS.
The pair met at the Cannes Film Festival while promoting their documentary films.
A source told Britain’s Daily Mirror, "Madonna thinks Mike is amazing and asked if she could have a private screening of his documentary Tyson while she was in the Riviera.
“Mike agreed immediately and offered to do a favour in return. He has promised to fly with her to Malawi this summer to promote awareness of children with AIDS there.”
Madonna produced and narrated the documentary film I Am Because We Are, which highlights the plight of Malawi’s one million orphan AIDS sufferers.
