Music superstar Alicia Keys hosted the Palm Pictures and HBO Documentary Films New York premiere of the critically acclaimed documentary “We Are Together” in New York City at the Directors Guild of America on June 12, 2008. The documentary chronicles the lives of children at the Agape Orphanage in South Africa who are using music to overcome their hardships.

The singer insists she loves kids and working alongside South African orphans in 2006 charity movie “We Are Together” made her broody to have children of her own.

But the 28-year-old insists motherhood is on the backburner for now, while she pursues her singing career.

Speaking to WENN at a special screening of the movie in New York City on Thursday (12Jun08) night, Keys said, “I’ve always loved kids. Kids are so important. It’s important to nurture and spend time with them and listen to them.

“I’m not ready to be a mom. But (adoption) is something that is important to consider. That’s what I really admire about Angelina. I think it’s beautiful the way she embraces children of the world.”

And she insists she would like to create a family of different cultures, like Jolie: “We are all one. We’re not as separate as we oftentimes think. So I possibly would (adopt), when I’m more in the motherhood stage of my life.”
