Cameron Diaz Wants to Adopt  8/12/05

Hollywood actress Cameron Diaz yearns for a baby and is considering adopting a needy child to bestow her love upon.

The Charlie's Angels star, 32, agrees she's at the perfect age for motherhood, but especially loves the idea of following in Angelina Jolie's footsteps and bringing a loving home to destitute children.

Jolie has adopted two children from orphanages in Cambodia and Ethiopia.

She says, "I would love a family. I'm at the age where the wish for a child gets stronger. But who knows.

"I think there are a lot of children out there who need families, so I wouldn't be opposed to adopting some kids.

"Bringing them in, giving them some love."

Diaz has been dating pop heart-throb Justin Timberlake since May 2003.
