Viola Davis Is Adopting A Baby!

Viola Davis has announced she is adopting a baby!

The Help actress Viola Davis joins the rankings of Angelina Jolie, Sheryl Crow, and Barbara Walters among others as she announces the news that her and husband Julius Tennon are adopting a baby together.

We don’t have any children [together], but we’re about to adopt a baby,” Tennon told  E! News at  The Help premiere in Beverly Hills Tuesday (August 9). Davis added, “Yes, we’re about to adopt a baby.”

Tony Award winner Davis , 45, said the adoption will happen “domestically.”

I definitely like that the adoption will be happening domestically. Too often celebrities glorify their adoptions from exotic destinations while there are thousands of children left without families here in America as well. I’m not downing the idea of adopting from foreign countries, but as a celebrity, you are a walking advertisement for the actions you make. It’s nice to see a different side of adoption – those done domestically.

How do you feel about adoption?
