Kanye West is ready to give up his womanizing ways and settle down and start a family, if he can find the right woman.

The trauma of losing his mother Donda and splitting with his fiancee Alexis Phifer within the same year has changed his focus:

“I want to have kids. But I want to have the right girl too – someone who really cares about me.
“It’s lonely at the top. Losing my mom, having no woman in my life to support me – I feel like I’m on my own and can only express it through my music.”

Being a rap superstar makes it impossible to find a genuine girl:

“When I’m in a club, girls are super-calculating, planning every step.”

No kidding, does he really think he’s going to find a down-to-earth, ‘real’ girl clubbing it up in celebrity filled watering holes?  He needs to take a Yoga or pottery making class.  There the girls are real.  Oh, and staying out of paparazzi scuffles helps too.  I’m just saying.
