According to The National Enquirer Britney who already has two sons with her ex-husband Kevin Federline, would like to adopt a girl.

The 34-year-old singer split from the father of Sean 10 and Jayden nine, nearly 10 years ago and has remained single ever since.

Britney is already a doting aunt to her niece Lexi (pictured below) and apparently yearning for a daughter. Madonna who has adopted two children, David and Mercy, has 'discussed the process on several occasions' with Britney according to a source speaking to The National Enquirer.

The 'Circus' singer believes that adopting a disadvantaged child from Malawi and giving them a new chance in America would be wonderful, however Malawi has strict adoption laws which may cause problems.

According to malawi24.com the country's adoption laws were created in 1949 and state that an adoptive parent must reside in the country for two years for monitoring before the parent can permanently take the child.

At the time that Madonna adopted David from Malawi she was criticised for defying this law, despite having a court order allowing David to live with her in the UK rather than Malawi before the adoption was complete.

Although Britney is a busy performer with her 'Piece of Me' Las Vegas residency she is a devoted parent and says she always puts her children first.

The 'Stronger' singer is currently working on a new album and told V magazine, "I'm proud of the work, and it's very different".
