Why do people, including celebrities adopt children in foreign countries instead of adopting in america?

Can you answer Leo’s question about Adoption?:

We have tons of children here that need a good home, but for someone reason celebrities and even people that are not well known, adopt children overseas in other countries. I feel like if you want to adopt a child and give it a great home, why don’t you get one from over in america. You can find a asian american child over her, just like you can find any other type. I assume they want to have children of different races but we have children that need homes here that are different races.
