We all agree that adopting a child to give them what they have been deprived of is a sweet and noble thing, but it seems celebrities are catching the adoption bug from Angelina Jolie & Madonna! Penelope Cruz has said that she wants to adopt. Penelope broke up with Matthew McConaughey last year. She insists that she is single, but rumors have linked her to both Orlando Bloom and Josh Hartnett!

Penelope said she wanted to follow in the footsteps of Angelina Jolie and Madonna, and has her heart set on adoption. She told Marie Claire Magazine: "Of course I want to have kids. I want to have my own kids, but also adopt. For a while I've had the feeling that my life won't be complete if I don't adopt." As much as I understand this all may be with good intentions, I cant help but to ask: is it a publicity stunt? Angelina Jolie and Madonna both got a lot of attention when they adopted their children, is Penelope after the attention? I sure hope she isn’t.
