Ben Stiller, star of movies such as "Meet the Parents" and "Zoolander," has been part of the show business world from the get-go. His parents are Jerry Stiller and Anne Meara, after all. But as for Ben's kids - Ella Olivia, 6, and Quinlin Dempsey, 3 - he wants them to "have as much of a regular childhood as possible."
"My daughter is not that interested in movies," Ben says. "She'd rather be playing with her dolls, which is good. I think that's healthy. My son sort of gets show business but he's also more involved with his trains."
Of course, if Ben's kids decide to go into the biz, he'll be totally supportive. Ben is married to actress Christine Taylor, 37. He's starring in the new movie "Madagascar: Escape 2 Africa" and the upcoming "Night at the Museum 2: Battle of the Smithsonian." He enjoys making movies that are accessible to his kids now.
"It's great to be able to share with them something they can enjoy," says Ben, 42. There's not a lot of films of mine I can show to them but we'll get to them eventually. I don't know how long it will take until they can see Dodgeball or even Heavyweights. But I'm guessing we'll get to both of them before There's Something About Mary."
Um, yeah. Quite a while, I'm sure.
