Angelina Jolie Wants to Adopt Again

Angelina Jolie told "Today Show" anchor Matt Lauer that she and husband Brad Pitt would very much like to add children to their growing family and are already planning for another adoption.  

When asked whether Jolie had something specific in mind for a new adoption, she told Lauer simply, "yeah."

The actress did not elaborate on the adoption plans and said there are restrictions anyway on beginning a new process until at least six months after new children come into a family to provide appropriate time to adjust.

The latest addition, twins Vivienne and Knox, were born three-and-a-half months ago. "We have so many children that they're not really stunned anymore when kids come home," Jolie said.

Together with Pitt and now the mother six, Jolie told Lauer she does not miss the days in the past when she preferred to be alone. "I don't like being without him (Pitt), I don't love being alone like I used to be."

Speaking about the celebrity couple's jet set lifestyle, she said there might come a day when her children want to stay in one place for a very long time. "So far we've just moved them a lot and they like moving. They like packing their bag before the next adventure, and they like making new friends wherever we go."

On her new dark drama 'Changeling,' to be released in theaters October 31, Jolie said she was inspired by the story about a "heroic" single mother who fights back after her son is kidnapped by battling the system and getting laws changed.

She also said she felt a special connection to her "captivating" character, who reminded her very much of her own mother, Marcheline Bertrand, who died of cancer in January 2007.

"She reminds me of my mom," Jolie told Lauer. "There was something about my mother's face and the kindness and the warmth and the openness and the frailty, where she wasn't this modern woman that I am."

She said there is "something so beautiful" about qualities such as shyness and feminity that are sometimes not seen positively in today's modern society.

  • How irresponsible...I can't wait to see what kind of mom you'll be when your children reach the age when they think for themselves and are teenagers! It sure is so much easier to have babies...why don't you wait and see??

    • I have to agree. When these kids grow up and they will. You will see a nightmare explode. They nshould stop being selfish and think about real life. Kids do not need hotel rooms they need stability. They neew education and they need time.

  • It is ok to have heaps of children, but in my mind, just how much quality time do these kids have with the parents. Is it fair for the kids to be moved around so much? I don't think so, best find a place to love and live in.
