Stiller eyes New York move

Actor Ben Stiller is planning to turn his back on Hollywood and return to his native New York - as soon as he has found the perfect Big Apple home for his family.

The 'Zoolander' star currently lives in Los Angeles with his actress wife Christine Taylor and their two children, daughter Ella, seven, and son Quinlin, three - but admits he househunts every time he is in New York.

He's even been courted by American TV presenter Regis Philbin to close a real estate deal.

But Stiller is adamant he won't uproot his family from Tinseltown until he finds the perfect new home.

He said: "Everytime we come here, we do a little house hunting... after a show (Philbin) said, 'Hey, check out the place.' It was incredible.

"I got the personal tour. It was wonderful but we haven't bought anything yet. We're just wondering if we're going to make the big move."
