Adoption Fever



What do you do when you can't get a man and any decent film parts? The obvious answer is, of course, adopt a child. Cue Meg 'Lilo Lips' Ryan's adoption of a little Chinese girl. While I can't but salute her philanthropic gesture, there's something a bit Mia Farrow about the whole thing.

Since Meg cheated on hubbie Dennis Quaid with deodorant and charisma-free zone Russell Crowe, her career has gone right down the pan. 'Against the Ropes' anyone? From being a surefire headliner ('When Harry Met Sally', 'Sleepless in Seattle', blah blah) Meg hasn't exactly been box-office gold of late. She didn't even shine in her little foray into indie movies, 'In The Cut'.

Maybe, now she has her hands full, she'll forget about the Botox and collagen implants. Even with the pumped up lips and adopted baby, she's never going to be Angelina.

These people just can't be bothered to adopt some kid who even remotely resembles themselves or their community. It's as if they must communicate to all of us in no uncertain terms: I am NOT the biological mother of this child.

I guess there is no competitive distinction in adopting some garden variety kid from your own area. That's just for regular, middle class people.

Not too many of them up for adoption.
