BEIJING, Aug. 5 -- Angelina Jolie is considering
adopting another child. The "Wanted" actress - who gave birth to twins Knox Leon
and Vivienne Marcheline last month - was so affected by footage of the recent
earthquake in China she is contemplating giving a home to a child orphaned in
the natural disaster.
A source told Britain's Star magazine: "Angelina is
devastated over the earthquake that occurred in China in May. She has been in
constant touch with relief workers as part of her UN involvement, and even got
her hands on photos of a few orphaned kids. "She's made overtures offering a
home to one earthquake orphan, or even two if they are siblings."
As well as the twins, Angelina and her partner Brad
Pitt also have three adopted children Zahara, three, seven-year-old Maddox and
Pax, four, as well as naturally conceived Shiloh, two.
Angelina, 33, recently revealed her newborn babies
are keeping her busy, but she is getting plenty of help from the rest of her
family.
She said: "It is chaos, but we are managing it and
having a wonderful time. Shiloh calls the twins her babies. She and Zahara pick
out their clothes, help change and hold them. It's sweet - they are like little
mommies."
