Lindsay Lohan wants to follow in the footsteps of Angelina Jolie adopt a child from an underprivileged country with girlfriend Samantha Ronson.

The Mean Girls star admits that her desire to be a mother is very strong and her need to help a third world child is even greater.  

She tells Marie Claire, "At some point, I want to adopt a kid – a child in need or a newborn from another country. I'm not sure."

It seems that Lindsay and Sam's romance is getting serious, with both girls sporting matching tattoos as a sign of their committment.  

"Samantha has a bunch of stars, so I got one on my hand. People can think what they want. I'm really happy and that's all that really matters," she says.

"I've made the decision to move forward. So yeah, she's a great person."
