Angelina Jolie United Nations Commercial

I better go to bed… I am so far behind on my beauty sleep that if it was Halloween I would not be in need of a mask… lol Good to share this time and cyber space with all of you. Sweet dreams you all…. PS, Send good karma to the Mavericks… Am a Miami girl… but I guess I am live Vince…LOYAL ….LOL…Caio.

Hi guys - well I bought some rags and tabs today, along with (((PEOPLE))) - My GOd, the internet is wonderful, but ain’t NOTHING like, seeing these pics up close and in a magazine - Shiloh is the most precious tiny thing, and her Mama & Daddy are no chopped liver either! But anyway - I also bought the usual suspects, ‘Life & Style,’ Star, and In Touch — thought I’d share a few of the great yummy things said about Angie (seeings as these are tabloids, take w/ a grain of salt - but when it’s good stuff, I always like to hold out hope, that just once, they may have gotten it right - lol) — anyway first off:STAR: Just one week after welcoming his daughter Shiloh Nouvel into the world, proud papa Brad Pitt hosted an intimate family party to celebrate Angelina Jolie’s 31st birthday on June 3 (a day before Angie’s actual date), telling one friend, "It’s weird — I never thought I could be this happy!" (Cliniqua interrupts to say — oh man, I’m crying for Brad that he thought that - see what Angie has done to him - giving him a whole new perspective on appiness, and at 42!!) Alonside his parents, Bill and Jane Pitt, who flew into namibia the day before from Springfield, MO - a high spirited Brad arranged for a feat of seafood, wine, and the African region’s specialty, ‘Walvis Bay oysters. He even found time to playfully kick a football around with adopted son Maddox 4, while amusing baby Zahara 17 mos. "Brad was giddy, organizing the party, getting is mother andfather to Africa and getting used to being a father to Shiloh," one friend of the actor tells STAR, "as long as I’ve known him, he’s never been this way — ever!" (Cliniqua: here comes my fav part…) According to hospital sources Brad stayed with Angelina throughout the delivery, then took Shiloh in his arms and guided by doctors, cut the umbilical cord. "He was completely overcome — overwhelmed," says Hilma Ipinge, head of pediatric nursing."You culd see it in his face — the tears, the concern, the rawness of it all. here was a famous actor living out real moments with real feelings." And after Angelina was back in her private room…Brad never left her bedside in the simple, cream colored room containing just a hospital bed and one cabinet. Says nursing manager Jo Calitz, "When we saw them alone, gazing adoringly at their baby, we understood what they wanted — to enjoy the miracle of their child tgether, privately." (Cliniqua: They talk more — about Angie’s breast feeding - how she had a bit of trouble at first - normal for new first time moms — but that it’s normal, about Ma & Dad Pitt joining them in Africa, and finally about little man Maddox) "Angie and Brad did a good job preparing him for a new sister, as he doesn’t seem to mind that she’s the center of attention in the family now. In fact he’s been saying to Brad, ‘Next year can we get a new baby boy?" From A CAPTION: "I’ve never seen two people more in love," says Cottage hospital’s nursing manager Jo Calitz. "Brad sat very close and talked to her all the time.Fra ll their riches, they looked as though they’d just been given the greatest gift in the world."Okay, STAR is now the only tabloid in the category of trash weeklies that I will even think about purchasing from now on, the NE is dead to me, FOREVER. As it should be to all of you.To continue….LIFE & STLE: Brad’s Daddy JoyIt was Brad’s idea of a perfect night. He threw an intimate dinner party on June 4 at Namibia’s Burning Shore resort to celebrate Angelina Jolie’s 31st birthday. Sitting on a table was a cake that Brad had flown in from Angie’s favorite Paris bakery. And as Angie opend presents in front of the guests -including Brad’s parents, Jane and William (who’d arrived in Namibia two days earlier); Angies American doctor, Jason Rothbart; and her asst Holly Goline — Brad manned the grill. "I’ve never seen such a happy group of people," says a witness. The main reason Brad was beaming? The tiny guest of honor, his and Angie’s week-old daughter, Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt. "Brad says he’s never been so happy," says an insider. "It’s a blissful time for he and Angie. He keeps saying Shiloh is the most beautiful thing he’s ever seen." What Brad got Angie: For Angie’s birthday, Brad bought her a handmade silver vial for her lip balm, along with an African-gemstone ring made of white gold, whichhe told a friend, "signifies our time here, and what the last year has meant to me." Captioned, ‘What’s Next?’: Beneath the wedding photo in MAMS ‘The couple had a traditional tribal wedding in Namibia, but Brad wants a legally binding ceremony in his home state of Missouri as soon as possible, a Pitt insider says.’ Another pic shows the Malibu estate saying, ‘Brad’s eager to return to his Malibu home (with it’s newly built nursery) and friends say he’s arranged to have Angie’s ill mom, Marcheline Bertrand, move in with them.’IN TOUCH: (Two huge gorgeous pics of Brad & Angie - breathtaking, a keeper.) ‘Brad & Angelina’s first week with Shiloh’ (Cliniqua: Get a load of this - it’s soooo sweet, almost as lovely as a ‘gitane’ fic ;-) In their first week as parents to newborn daughter Shiloh Nouvel, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have experienced it all — the tears, the joy, the sleepless nights, and moments of pure wonder. "Brad’s been wiping away happy tears on a regular basis," says a friend. nd Angelina too, "couldn’t be happier." Holed up in Namibia’s Burning Shore Lodge with baby Shiloh, Maddox 4, and 17 month old Zahara, Brad and Angelina marvel at their beautiful family. On Tuesday, May 30, the new mom "walked into Shiloh’s nursery," reveals an insider. "Se saw Brad gazing at Shiloh, with maddox and Zahara, and her eyes welled up. Brad asked her what was wrong. "She’s just so beautiful, and this is all so perfect,’ she said. ‘I’m crying because I’m happy.’" Article also makes mention of Brad’s diaper duty - and how he’s a pro, and an all star and won’t hesitate to jump to. Says Maddox kind of thought Shiloh would come out ready to play with him, but that he’s willing to wait - and proudly told hotel staff, ‘that’s my sister!’ Said Jon Voight had paid a visit to Marcheline in LA, and she showed him pics of the baby. Mentions Angie’s birthday party also, and that Angie got a bracelet from Brad (Life & Style said a ring)_________________________Hope you enjoyed - feel free to use, but credit my transcription, thank you very much.

For Angie’s birthday, Brad bought her a handmade silver vial for her lip balm … or for his blood. hehehe. kidding.

# 429 | cindy2Oh yeah? There are so many people that contribute to threads here that I couldn’t figure out who ‘gospel’ was. I caught the hints about AG of course. But I was ultimately wrong. Oh well, it was a good game while it lasted.

Hi Everyone,Just wanted to share…Cousin got married, was a beautiful ceremony and I CRIED buckets. Yep, I’m not ashamed of it, I stood there watching them exchange their vows and I bawled like a baby. Honestly, there is something about that moment when two matched souls coming together…that humbles me. That love…that thing that pulls them toward each other, just makes everything else insignificant. During the ceremony, I wonder two things…1) How can people still hate when they are surrounded by love? I looked at the people around and everyone had almost the same expression their faces…I can’t explain it but it seemed at that moment everything else….worries, fears, anger….had diasppeared as they watch my cousin and her guy become one. Of course people will be thinking, well there’s nothing to hate, afterall it is family but that’s not the point…..I mean even on TV, when people get married (Fictional Characters)it still pulls that thing in us.The 2nd thing I wondered was this - with the Billions of people in the world, how are we expected to find the one….out other half? What if we missed them, do we get a do over or is that it? Well, I’ve concluded that GOD has a way of putting us right where we need to be just at the right time (one day if you guys aren’t already tired of my posts, I’ll tell you how my cousin met the guy who is now her husband). Anyway, I believe that it’s really out of our hands…fate takes care of it. I hear people say to their new love "where were ten yrs ago.." And now my answer to that is "he/she wasn’t ready for you ten yrs ago. Your moment is NOW. This was the plan"….I guess the point I’m trying to make is Love is a very unpredictable but beautiful thing and even more beautiful is being a witness to it (jeez, now I sound…like GITANE. Oh, no wonder you write so well, you have witnessed your fair share of Love…ah, that’s your secret)….okay, I know is early for most of you (lol) bit I’d like to make a toast to two couples whose love tugs at my heart strings. Here’s to Dubai Girl/Dubai Girl’s guy and BP/AJ. All the best guys.It’s a little after one and we are having a moment of reprieve until the all night party and I mean that..ALL night long. So if I want to function very well, I better go take a nap. I haven’t gotten eight hours of sleep since I got here. I’m hoping to catch up on the very long flight back.Speaking of Catch up….THANKS A LOT JARED FOR THE NEW THREAD (and in case you missed it, I was being sacarstic). 6 threads! How’s a girl meant to catch up? I guess it was really stupid of me to think everything will remain at a standstill just because I’m not here…well you won’t catch me making that assumption again, now I know that I don’t matter. You sure showed me..Fine, whatever.Alright, I’ve to go…just wanted to say Hi to every one…well maybe more than hi. Chat with you all soon…have a lovely day.Thanks Jared…I mean it.

# 434 | African GirlI was just about to log off when I saw your name as a recent poster. okay, I know is early for most of youYou go all the way to Dubai to synchronize with my time zone and you’re just an hour or two off. I gotta go when you log on (well now off to take your nap….ah yes, napssss). Pssst, think PST, okay? I have a cultural wedding anecdote to share to piggyback off of you. But it’ll have to wait. At the very least, Gitane might like hearing it.

Thanks you very much Cliniqua!U are so sweet :D

I have just read the lie from NE on the internet. that’s so insulting to both Brad and Angie, Can they sue NE like TC suing Life and Style. the money they get from NE can even donate to one of their cause.

# 372 | guli |THANKS for that video! It was AWESOME! Isn’t it wonderful to see the family growing and happy?# 375 | ANISTON THE HAG! WOW I knew the magazine would go fast…..I was lucky and the store I went to had them out Thursday night. My sister, brother and I share a subscription, but I’m last on the list - I just got the Angie most beautiful cover!# 376 | sarafina I too would like to know how to save these videos - they are all so AWESOME! Does your school have computers? I work in a pretty upper class community, and we have TV/video/DVD in every room plus computers in every room and every teacher has a laptop! LOL I’m only an assistant, so I only get a 3 year old laptop with no fancy stuff on it. The rest can access almost anything from theirs! On the other hand, a LOT of places are blocked by our "sonic wall" - I can’t even come to Jared’s! # 379 | Passing Through Hey now PT! Richie is okay….he’s from JERSEY after all…..[my home state ;-)] He doesn’t seem to have the ambition of Jon, but he’s co-written a lot of their songs. That being said, even if it were Jon himself, they just don’t attract the gossip interest of H’wood stars.imho, Charlie and Denise were well suited……except that HE seems to have gotten his act together and she’s just —well, she’s some of those words we hate people to call Angie! SHE broke the top girlfriend rule - I think maybe she gets a "pass" because Heather is so much more mature than X, and, I sorta doubt she has enough [if ANY] people on her side to start a "fight" over.# 384 | trivia True! And, I think most of the hype was BS from the git-go. Most "ensemble" shows end up with someone who "breaks out" and I think she was chosen - especially after the hook up with Brad. I never watched, so I can’t really say that much about the show.# 397 | Elena |ITA! I almost swooned at James’ comment! Isn’t that what we all want for our families? That they be happy and loved? It doesn’t really matter if WE love them, it’s whether they treat our loved ones the way we want for them. I too sort of missed his kin’s comments. Maybe Doug wasn’t available? I think he’s the spolesman? I hope they are accepting.OMG I just read your #413. That would be SOOO incredible! I’d bid quite a bit - and for a good cause too!!# 423 | trivia said: they are being targetted because they have been cast as the ones who have erred in that divorce fiasco. Right on! Let me just add - they make the rags furious because they won’t play in their sandbox. Look at how little press they did for MAMS, and yet the movie still went skyward! They have the power/clout to say it’s my way or no way. I think that makes Americans [I am one] jealous in these days of feeling so powerless in our own lives.# 424 | Elena |THAT was an awesome poem! I’m thinking of making a poster of that for my room next year. It sure does seem to fit them to a T doesn’t it? YOU are on fire today woman! I seem to see an awful lot of "Elena" in my replies! So glad you are back with us again.# 428 | CLINIQUA |I can’t believe it! They were NICE to Brad and Angie! *faints dead away* Maybe the mega sales of People will teach these nut jobs something - we LIKE to read/see good things! Like you, I take it all with many grains of salt - still it is pretty to think so isn’t it?# 434 | African Girl LOVED LOVED LOVED your post! And, yes, I’d like to hear how they met. Did you take pictures? I really want to see this wedding. Photobucket accounts are free….and can be taken down in a moment [hint hint hint]. Did you look over the crowd at the wedding? Maybe HE was there! I believe if you keep yourself open to the world, you’ll find each other.

Got 2 copies of People last night at Walmart although it took me awhile to look for an isle mag stand that still have them. Yes People got their investment back. Forever blessings for the Jolie-Pitt family and to the BAMZS.

Clinqua, thank you for copy typing the articles. If you hadn’t typed it, I wouldn’t have read it coz I wont buy them or read them for free at the news agent. I choose to believe this Star article because the Star bothered to quote 2 people, add their names and their positions to the article about Brad and Angelina. I don’t imagine it is that difficult after all to get an interview from these two nurses;) As for the other 2 articles, it would be nice if all this were true. I would like it to be true but I would take it all with a shaker full of salt.

I love these pictures of Angelina and Brad. But just one point of contention. Brad’s sport jacket, its too long in the arms. I just feel like taking it in for him. Giving me two added bonuses. Being next to Brad Pitt and touching Brad Pitt. Ah a girl can dream.

Do you guys remember the thread JJ had a while back of the New York mag and their fake B/A baby photos? The one where they tried to predict what the photoshoot would look like and who would get the photos? Check out this story from the New York Observer (I got it of a livejournal link that someone posted up-thread). THEY SAY PEOPLE PAID $7.6MIL FOR THE NORTH AMERICAN RIGHTS TO THE PHOTOS!
