Michelle Stafford: Adoption ‘Harder’ for Single Mothers

When Michelle Stafford stopped to consider her accomplishments in life, she suddenly realized one thing was missing: children. However, her single status limited her options in starting a family.

“It’s harder for a single mom to adopt than even same-sex couples,” The Young and the Restless actress, 42, tells the holiday issue of CBS Watch.

“The attorney says to the woman who wants to put her baby up for adoption, ‘I have this couple … and I have this single woman.’ And that woman thinks, ‘Well, I am single. So she is out.’”

Topping off her bump with a bow, Mariah Carey receives a tummy pat from Nick Cannon at TNT’s Christmas in Washington 2010 concert, held Sunday at the National Building Museum.

The singer’s husband isn’t the only one getting up close and personal with baby on the way — Ellen DeGeneres gave Carey’s belly a rub later that same night.

Carey, 41, is promoting her recently released album, Merry Christmas II You, and expects her first child this spring.

Willow Smith Steps Out with New Hairstyle

JEvan Agostini/PictureGroup

She’s gone from hair-raising to hair-whipping.

Now, Willow Smith‘s rocking a new bowl-cut ‘do. And we think we like it.

Not only does it frame her cute face, but it’s not too over-the-top.

Plus, it leaves room for the 10-year-old to experiment. We’ve heard she’s already added teal extensions to the back.

Now that she’s joining Justin Bieber‘s European tour this Spring, who do you think will be making the biggest hair statement?

Our bet’s on Willow.

TELL US: What do you think of her new hairstyle?

Taking a cue from dad Gavin Rossdale (not pictured), Kingston strolled out with a toothpick in his mouth!
