Jessica Simpson is considering adopting a child

Jessica Simpson is considering adopting a child, her publicist, Rob Shuter reports People Magazine. The sexy singer - who called time on her three-year marriage to singer Nick Lachey four months ago - recently told TV's Extra: "I want to adopt, and I plan to adopt before I have my own kids.

"Nothing has been finalized yet," Shuter, who was asked when and how Simpson would adopt, It is true that she's exploring options."

Jessica also said of a particularly well-known adoptive mother, "I think Angelina Jolie has done amazing, amazing things, and the international adoption rate just since her has skyrocketed. It's unbelievable."

Shuter said that for the past several years Simpson and her family have anonymously contributed money to various Mexican orphanages, and that Jessica was 11 years old when she visited her first orphanage with a church group.

Meanwhile, The 'Dukes of Hazzard' beauty just signed a music deal with Epic.
She told America's Billboard magazine: "It just seems the right place for me
as I begin my new journey."
Earlier this week, it was revealed Jessica has bought the film rights to
sexy novel, 'Lovers And Players'.
