Actress Adopts Black Baby

Speaking of adopting babies, actress Joely Fisher (''Til Death, Desperate Housewives) has taken a cue from Banjelina and Madonna and has adopted a baby of her own. But instead of looking outside of the United States, she's found a baby girl here in Los Angeles.

Joely Fisher and hubby Chris Duddy adopted an African American infant in September and named her Olivia Luna.

"Joely and Chris were inspired by Angelina and Madonna's decisions to adopt a baby from Africa," a family friend says. Joely even visited with children in Mozambique in August. "But after looking into the adoption process, they realized there were so many children in the L.A. area who needed homes."

Olivia is the third daughter for Chris and Joely. She joins Skylar, 7, and True, 2.
