Eva Longoria Wants To Adopt

Engaged actress Eva Longoria says she wants to adopt children in a new interview.

"I do want to have a family at some point. I also want to adopt. I don't feel pressure to have kids because I know there are so many out there," the "Desperate Housewives" star says in the new issue of Cosmopolitan magazine.

Longoria, 31, who is engaged to basketball player Tony Parker, also talks about how she and her fiancé deal with relationship conflict.

"We never go to bed angry, which sometimes frustrates Tony because he'll be like 'Please. I have a game tomorrow. I need sleep,' " she says. "Another rule we have is that nobody is ever right. I don't need to be right. I just want to be understood. The same goes for him."

Surprisingly, she says, her friendships with actors like Mario Lopez and Jamie Foxx do not irk her hubby-to-be.

2"I get so much crap for having friends like Jamie Foxx and Mario Lopez, who are like brothers to me. It's difficult when you're in an insecure relationship or if your partner doesn't know where he stands with you. That's not how it is with (Tony and me)," she says.

The actress is in full-on wedding mode, planning for her impending nuptials that will reportedly take place in Paris in July.

But she still has a few loose-ends to tie up.

"I wish I could wear 10 dresses to my wedding," she says. "It's so sad that you put it in storage and then never see it again. I am going to sleep in mine after I wear it. My friend Kenny (Chesney) is going to sing at my wedding. He just doesn't know it yet."
