Naomi Watts does Christmas in New York
15 December 2006

Australian actress Naomi Watts has been getting into the Christmas spirit during a trip to New York.

The star of The Ring and King Kong has been spotted doing her bit for charity in the Big Apple.

Watts took the time to talk to fans and carried with her a large red sack, which she carried around and asked people to put presents into.

It was part of the Today Show's annual toy drive, which aims to gather presents together for less-fortunate youngsters.

Masses of fans turned out for the event, offering gifts and donations to the drive, which managed to raise $36m (£19m) last year.

Organisers are hopeful that 2006 will see even more money raised for needy children and Watts got the ball rolling on 13 December.

During her rounds outside the Rockefeller Centre, the 38-year-old told reporters that one day she would like to be celebrating Christmas with a child of her own.

'I'm a woman, I certainly think about that all the time. I'm very aware of my age and of my timing,' she said.
