Paris Hilton wants to have baby. It appears that the heiress is in her motherhood mood these days as she told Elle UK in recent interview for its October 2007 issue she's ready to spawn.

"I wanna have like a family and a guy," she tells the magazine. "I just started working out and it feels great. It gives me so much energy. I want kids next year, so I've got to get my body ready." Is currently single, she's looking for the right man who should "be a good person, someone I know would be a good husband, loyal and funny and smart. And somebody I can trust, with good chemistry. But I don't know, I like a guy who can make me laugh."

While planning to settle down, have a family, and live a life away from the spotlight, Paris is reported to star in the musical version of Aussie soap "Prisoner: Cell Block H." The socialite is said to be keen to make her mark on the West End stage and has apparently been researching the original TV series to help her get the part.

"Everyone is very excited. There was a real buzz around the show when we thought we would get some well-known Australian soap actors but Paris is a major coup," a source in the know said in a statement. "The casting agents never thought she'd be interested, but before meeting with the directors she researched the show by watching DVDs of the original series. She absolutely loved it and thought it was brilliantly camp."

According to Wikipedia, "Prisoner: Cell Block H" is an Australian television soap opera which was set in Wentworth Detention Centre, a fictional women's prison. Because of its success in the United Kingdom, the series has become one of the most enduring in Australian television history.
