adminROBIN THICKE’S dad wants him and his wife Paula Patton to “adopt a few Ethiopian kids’’. The “Blurred Lines” singer’s father, Alan, thinks that if he and his actress spouse Paula Patton — who have both had huge breakthroughs in their careers in 2013 — adopted children from less fortunate backgrounds, they could be like the famous philanthropic couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt.
Alan told Us Weekly: “I told him, ‘You’re a power couple now. If you only adopt a few Ethiopian kids, you’d be the next Brangelina.’’
Brad (49) and Angelina, (38) have three adopted children — Maddox (12) from Cambodia; Pax (9), born in Vietnam and Zahara, eight, originally born in Ethiopia — as well as Shiloh (7) and five-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.
Alan — best known for his role in “Growing Pains” — added he had always wanted to be a singer himself, but never made it and he’s glad his son has been so successful, after his track “Blurred Lines” made him a global star this year.
The 66-year-old actor added: “I’m thrilled for him. I’ve always dabbled in music. If I could have grown up to be Robin Thicke, I would have. But I’m glad somebody in the family did.’’ — Bang Showbiz.
