Madonna lands in Brazil with her rabbi

Madonna's rabbi is accompanying her to Brazil, where she would do some charity work.

The Pop Queen flew into South America on a private jet on Monday.

But despite reports that her visit to Rio de Janeiro is to meet toyboy Luz''s family, she insists she is there to carry out charity work.

"I am going there strictly for fundraising and humanitarian purposes," Contactmusic quoted her speaking ahead of her visit.

While the 51-year-old star has not disclosed her plan for the visit, she arrived with the Kabbalah Centre''s Rabbi Michael Berg, her partner in the Raising Malawi project, and is expected to meet with Rio Governor Sergio Cabral and Mayor Eduardo Paes today.

"She will visit several projects here. She is delighted by the city and wants to be engaged and help," said Sergio.
