Mariah Carey keen to start a family

New York, Mar 26 (ANI): Pop star Mariah Carey has revealed her plan to start a family with her husband Nick Cannon, and she is keen to have a baby girl.

According to reports, the entertainer has splashed a whopping 200,000 dollars on baby furniture at a children's store in San Francisco for the new Hollywood home she intends to buy with her hubby.

Mariah is said to have set her sights on the David Saperstein estate in the exclusive western L.A. neighborhood of Holmby Hills, worth a whopping 125 million dollars.

If Mariah buys the mansion, her neighbors would be the Beckham brood and Hugh Hefner.

The French Chateau-style mansion, which has been on the market for months, includes Italian marble walls, French limestone floors, gold-embossed leather wall coverings, a nine-car garage, ballroom, private running track and movie screening room.

"It's 45,000 square feet and looks like a European castle. It's so big, it can't even be called a mansion - it's similar to Buckingham Palace!" the New York Daily quoted a source as saying.

Though Mariah has many plans in her head, there is no indication that she is expecting. She is not even thinking about adoption.

"Mariah has tossed around the idea of adopting," the source added.

Meanwhile, Cannon revealed that he was planning on kids "soon. Like a couple [of] years soon!" (ANI)
