DARYL HANNAH has criticised celebrities who adopt children and leave the m with a nanny while they work - insisting stars should put family life b efore their career.
The Splash actress has strong views on adoption, insisting couples who already have two kids and want more should be forced to take in unwanted children.
And she’s adamant that these youngsters should be cared for by their ad opted parents - and not a hired help.
Hannah tells Britain’s You magazine, "I do believe that anyone with two children who wants more should adopt the rest, because there are so many out there who desperately need a home.
"As for those actresses who adopt babies, I only approve of the ones wh o aren’t employing someone else to raise them.
"I know how long it takes to make a movie. If you look at their schedul e, you can see how little time they spend at home. It comes down to prior ities and I believe there are times when you have to put your personal li fe first." Angelina Jolie, Sandra Bullock and Katherine Heigl are among the movie stars who have all recently adopted tots in need of a loving home. (CL/WN

THE KARATE KID has sparked outrage in Australia, with campaigners condemn ing the movie for showing "brutal" violence inappropriate for children.
The picture, starring Jackie Chan and Will Smith’s son Jaden, was origi nally rated M - recommended only for mature audiences - but after an appe al from distribution chiefs at Sony Pictures, it was downgraded to a PG ( parental guidance advised).
The decision makes the film more accessible to children, but bosses at The Australian Council on Children and the Media are fuming about the cha nge - and are urging parents to exercise caution when allowing their kids to see it.
Vice-president Elizabeth Handsley says, "The movie presents violence as a solution to bullying, which is absolutely wrong. Strong violence by a sympathetic character with little or no consequences is shown.
"Just because your 12 year old can watch the movie, doesn’t quite mean that your eight year old can too. It might be very inappropriate." Council Board member and child psychologist Dr C. Glenn Cupit adds, "Th e violence is quite brutal and of an adult type. It is inflicted by child ren on other children. It’s young children doing the bashing up. Further, the violence inflicted does not show real-life outcomes of serious kicki ng and punching… a young audience may not appreciate what will surely r esult if they copy that violence."

LADY GAGA has a creepy recurring dream in which a phantom urges her to sl ash her wrists to save her family.
The Poker Face singer, who has learned from her mother that the bizarre nightmare is perhaps a secret society ritual, admits she uses the imager y from this and other dreams in her songs and videos.
She tells Rolling Stone magazine, "This phantom… takes me into a room , and there’s a blonde girl with ropes tied to all four of her limbs and she’s got my shoes on from the Grammys… and the ropes are pulling her a part.
"I never see her get pulled apart but I just watch her whimper, and the n the phantom says to me, ‘If you want me to stop hurting her and if you want your family to be OK, you will cut your wrist.’ And I think he has h is own, like, crazy wrist-cutting device.
"And he has this honey… and he wants me to pour the honey into the wo und, and then put cream over it and a gauze. I looked up the dream, and I couldn’t find anything about it anywhere. And my mother goes, ‘Isn’t tha t an Illuminati ritual?’" And when Gaga gets really stuck over the meaning of a dream, she turns to her pal, spiritual advisor Deepak Chopra.
The singer asked him to help her interpret a dream in which she’s eatin g a human heart.
She adds, "I was freaking out… I was like, ‘The devil’s trying to tak e me, Deepak. I’m a good girl!’ And Deepak goes, ‘You are so very creativ e, my Gaga. You should make this into a video.’ And I guess, in his own w ay, he spoke to me about learning to respect and honour my insanity. It’s part of who I am."

Celebrity chef GORDON RAMSAY has been forced to close one of his pubs in London as a result of falling profits.
The Hell’s Kitchen star’s business empire has suffered in the recent ec onomic downturn and in 2009 he was advised to file for bankruptcy because of his spiralling money issues.
