" Joel Madden was recently left speechless after a couple approached him on the street and offered him a child in exchange for money. The Good Charlotte rock musician, who is to become a dad for the second time soon with his partner Nicole Richie, said that he was horrified by the request. After the incident, Madden wrote on his Twitter blog: &amp;quot;Today some people in traffic tried to sell me a baby. A live human baby. I didn&amp;#039;t know what to say. I said a little prayer for the kid.&amp;quot; He continued: &amp;quot;Wow, it all happened so fast. I was trying to figure out if they were serious, and i think when my reaction was not a good one, they just took off.&amp;quot; The star added: &amp;quot;I mean look. Chances are they were joking. The scary part is I really couldn&amp;#039;t tell. Maybe I&amp;#039;m just one gullable fool.(sic)&amp;quot; Madden and Richie already have a 19-month old daughter called Harlow.
