The 'Livin' La Vida Loca' singer told ABC News: "It's something we want to begin to create this year, a family of many colours."

On the subject of celebrities getting special treatment when it comes to adoption procedures, the star commented: "I want to do it right. I don't want any problems or misunderstanding.

"Some think as celebrities we can manipulate the system to have a quicker adoption."
