Ellen on the possibilty of being a parent: ‘What if it turns out that it’s not as cute as I wanted or as talented?’
Ellen DeGeneres said on The Today Show earlier today she’d like to have kids – but not enough to actually become a parent.
Ellen says of potential parenthood: ‘I love kids. But that’s such a big commitment. And it seems long-term. It seems like a commitment that you have to stick with.
‘And I just don’t know if I can — it’s too risky. Like, what if I don’t like the kid? [laughs] What if it turns out that it’s not as cute as I wanted or as talented?’
Ellen, married to Portia de Rossi since 2008, also addressed occasional tabloid stories reporting that the union is troubled.
‘I’m just more flabbergasted by the fact that someone needs to make up a story,’ she said. ‘There’s never been a point where we were breaking up or divorcing or fighting. None of these stories are even remotely true. I don’t know the magazines and I don’t have a publicist, so I don’t know.’

@Kyle – Get flack for what? Like marriage, having children isn’t for everyone.
