Paula Abdul Is Considering Adoption

Paula Abdul is reportedly considering adoption if she is unable to have her children biologically. The American Idol judge remains single and says she would prefer to raise a child with a father figure, but if she is unable to find Mr Right before time runs out the 44-year-old-singer says she will adopt.

Abdul says, "With medical technology these days, I could have children by myself using a donor. But I would rather be in a relationship so the child has a father to help instill core values.

"If it's meant for me to have children naturally, I absolutely will. I love kids, I really do. And kids love me. I'm so open to the idea of adoption. But, again, I would like to be able to share the raising of the children."
