Los Angeles - Cameron Diaz isn't ready to become a mother.

The 35-year-old actress says she would like to have children at some point in her life, but is happy looking after her friends and family at the moment.

She said: "In a sense, I'm a mother now. I think we all have that maternal ability and we all give that to our friends and our family. I think that's a nurturing nature that we all have. I definitely don't want to have children right now.

"I think I'm pretty good with kids. I love kids. Kids are great. I treat kids like human beings because that's how I was treated - I talk to them like people and some kids get it and some kids don't."

The What Happens in Vegas star - who has dated Matt Dillon, Jared Leto and Justin Timberlake - also revealed she doesn't think her "Mr Right" exists.

Cameron - who is currently single - added: "You're always told that he has to look like this, and this is how he exists in all the storybooks we've been given over the years, but it doesn't always come in those packages. And people are not always what they seem to be. I wasn't really a big fairytale girl when I was growing up." - Bang Showbiz.com
