Annie Shoots Angelina Again

Annie Shoots Angelina Again

Four years ago, Annie Leibovitz shot Angelina Jolie for the April 2002 cover of Vogue in their first-ever Shape Issue. Four years later, Annie is at it again with Angelina!

Annie Leibovitz is tired and nursing a cold, and she’ s just flown back to New York on the red-eye from Los Angeles, where she spent two days shooting Angelina Jolie for Vogue. Like so many of her photo sessions, there was nothing simple about it. “I talked with Angelina before the shoot,” says Leibovitz, who’s famous for her preparation. “She felt like she was coming back from having the baby and she felt very sexy and ready to go.” Jolie, a pilot, suggested shooting on an old airfield near the desert, with motorcycles and small planes among the props. (She flew herself to the location and the next day, Brad Pitt buzzed up in his plane.) They also spent a day shooting in the dunes near Death Valley, where the mercury hit 104, and the wind whipped so hard that everyone was peppered with sand. There were 50 people on the set, and racks of clothes from the New York spring collections to be tried and styled. It was as if Leibovitz were directing a small movie.

It’ll be very, very interesting to see how Annie will portray Angelina four years later. Expect Angelina Jolie to grace the November 2006 or December 2006 issue of Vogue. Thanks to everyone who sent this in!

Thanks. No, this will be their second one. They already have a fifteen month old son. This pregnancy was an accident. They are shocked. I think it’s great. They live in Turkey.

It goes beyond that. He’s clearly disturbed and has his own agenda. Thank God Angelina has Brad in her life because he will not put up with this.
This one is over the top to me. And people wonder why she moved to England . I would too if I had a father like Voight who behaved like this.

766 | gitane - Every child deserves a loving home and I know you have lots of love to give and they will know that. As AJ said, they find you and yours will certainly find you. I am positive about that. You are a good woman and you are doing real good things.

767 | Alexanderina …. i’m good….thanks….still at work…blogging and doing my homework at the same time….hehehe..waiting for my friend to pick me up so that we can go grocery shopping and have dinner…

770 | CCCC …. :) ITA….only read happy BAMZ news…

GULI…..is dolmas the name of that food that is wrapped with grape leaves?? do you know how to make phyllo pastry???….mmm…mmm….mmm these are delicious….my requests for the pity party on October 2nd….

769 | creole ….:lol: don’t believe her that she left coz it grew so big….as someone said above….she got kicked out….what a poser the X is….

Cool it guys. I lost my response to all.
Now I’ll word it differently. This all I want to say.
I am all for Brad’s success in all his movie projects, as a producer or actor.
It is my belief and observations of family situations that if they (husband/partner) are successful, content and happy those became a recipe for a happy family too.
I am looking for their future not after a few movies or so. Or maybe I just don’t get it…..

777 | Leo | In her 2004 Vogue interview, when she returned to LA for MAMS she was worried that one day while at the grocery store she would run into him.

“She is also acutely aware of the very real possibility of an awkward encounter. “It’s strange here, too, because my father is here, who I don’t talk to, and my ex husband is here. I go to the grocery strore, and I’m praying that I don’t run into anybody. Running thru the isles with my son, just hoping…..”

Angelina is at her worst in these photos IMO.
I’ve seen 50 year old legs look better–more shapely and toned than hers. I’m surprised she’s giving Annie L. another chance.

I tell you what, Sam…why don’t you call Brad and ask him if he complains about that when she’s got those legs wrapped around him.

Jennifer Aniston & Brad Pitt: What’s Next?

As they celebrate their first anniversary, Hollywood’s hottest couple prepares for their biggest role ever.
By Judy Kessler

A Little Game of He Said/She Said

“Happily married! Fat! Kids!” he said.

“He loves the idea of having a huge family,” she said.

“The planning is under way,” he said, eight months after their $1 million wedding celebration.

“I love everything about them,” she said, describing her feelings about babies.

“Listen, I’m ready now,” he said.

“I want to be a young mother, too,” she said.

Although there might be room for further dialogue, there’s little doubt where Hollywood’s royal couple, Jennifer Aniston and Brad Pitt, has stood on the matter of children — even before their wedding took place. “You sort of know if you are a person who wants to be a mother,” Aniston has said. “I always did.”

For his part, Pitt was just as sure: “I believe in the concept of marriage and family, and it’s always been my intention to take this step and build a life with someone.”

So who could be surprised to learn of a beautiful baby looming in the couple’s near future?

The perfect relationship, combined with the perfect time in their lives to have children, makes the prospect of a baby all the more exciting. At 32, Aniston has, in her own words, “evolved.” She has clearly come a long way from the confusing 20s to a solid relationship with Pitt, an established career and considerable peace of mind. “I’m excited to be thirty,” she said shortly after her birthday two years ago. “It feels like an accomplishment…like no more excuses.”

Despite their place at the top of Hollywood’s A-list, this is a couple that sets priorities when it comes to the delicate balance of family and career. After the Emmys last year and before the big party that followed, the two went to a Los Angeles hospital to visit their friends’ newborn. “We jumped into the car, looked at each other and said, ‘Let’s go to Cedars-Sinai,’” recounted Aniston. “‘Let’s go to the hospital before we go to the party, just to get a burst of reality.’ Those awards shows are so surreal — fun but surreal.”

As her friend of many years Kristin Hahn, a bridesmaid at Aniston and Pitt’s wedding, explained, “It’s so easy to get lazy when you have everything at your fingertips. They challenge each other to have real intimacy, as opposed to getting away with what the world allows them to get away with.”

There was chemistry from the instant they met, an electric connection that sizzled on their first date three years ago and has only grown more powerful since. “We’ve felt pretty much like a force from the beginning,” said Aniston recently. That’s not surprising, considering their similarities. Both wanted to be actors; both possessed an artistic streak — he with design and architecture, she as a painter. Both headed for Hollywood to pursue their dreams, neither knowing the other would be waiting there at the end of the rainbow.

At 25, Pitt left Springfield, Missouri, in his beat-up Datsun with $325 in his pocket. His first job after arriving in Los Angeles was foul, dressing up like a chicken to wave customers into a Pollo Loco restaurant. Around the same time, in 1989, Aniston, barely 20, fled New York for points west, after attending the renowned School for the Performing Arts. Her goal was as much to escape a difficult childhood (her parents had divorced when she was nine, and she has spoken of her insecurities growing up), as it was to pursue an acting career.

Both Aniston and Pitt floundered for a while upon arriving in Hollywood. After working in commercials and TV shows, Pitt landed the role of the swindling but irresistible cowboy in 1991’s Thelma & Louise. From there, it was right to the top: Legends of the Fall, Seven and this year’s hit with Julia Roberts, The Mexican, to name a few. There were relationships along the way, including a very public engagement to Gwyneth Paltrow, which ended with a painful breakup in 1997.

Like her husband, Aniston was, at first, just another poor young actor. For many months, she waited tables and worked as a telemarketer, messenger or receptionist. After a few false starts, in projects like the ho-hum thriller Leprechaun and two short-lived TV shows, Aniston was flatly told by her agent at the time that her success would be contingent upon becoming thinner. Throwing herself into a strict regimen of diet and exercise, Aniston lost 30 pounds in a year.

Almost instantly she landed the part of Rachel on Friends. Then came feature roles in films like She’s the One and The Object of My Affection. This fall, she’ll star opposite Mark Wahlberg in Rock Star. (Looking back, with concern about the pressures on teenage girls — including the pressure to be thin — Aniston has volunteered to advise them by way of the Web site Voxxy.com. She urges teens to work on their overall well-being, with less concern about outward appearance.)

Aniston, like Pitt, had her share of romances — with Counting Crows lead singer Adam Durvitz and actors Charlie Schlatter and Tate Donovan. She dated Donovan for more than a year, perhaps her most serious involvement until meeting Pitt. But post-Paltrow, post-Donovan, when the two finally met on a dinner date, there was an instant and mutual attraction. “It’s great when you can be each other’s sounding board,” she has said.

At Home With the Sexiest Man

Since their wedding a year ago this month (July 29), the fusion seems to have grown even stronger. “Married life is fantastic,” Brad said last year, after being voted “Sexiest Man Alive” by People magazine for the second time. “The thing I was least prepared for was the pride I have whenever I look across at this woman. We’re pretty much after the same thing, just great respect for each other.” That, in turn, has engendered respect from the couple’s colleagues. Jason Flemyng, who starred with Pitt in the recent film Snatch and has a part with Aniston in Rock Star, has only praise for his co-stars: “They couldn’t be more generous. There’s no status hierarchy at all.”

Their friends take pleasure in watching the Aniston-Pitt marriage blossom. “Jennifer’s a lot more peaceful now,” said Friends co-star Lisa Kudrow recently. “There’s not a lot to say about them because there are no problems. They’re both light-years ahead of themselves. You know how your grandparents have a certain perspective about life? They’ve got that now.”

They’ve also been working nonstop. Aniston’s role in Rock Star has started to generate some favorable buzz. She’s sure to surprise many of her TV fans with her gritty portrayal of the devoted girlfriend of a salesman (Wahlberg) whose life changes when he replaces the lead singer in a popular heavy-metal band. Pitt just finished filming Ocean’s Eleven (with, among others, Julia Roberts and George Clooney), in which he plays the Dean Martin character. Next comes To the White Sea, a film by the Coen brothers (Fargo; O Brother, Where Art Thou?), in which Pitt portrays a World War II gunner shot down over Tokyo.

Career aside, Pitt maintains that the most important consideration for him and Aniston is their marriage. In answer to how he balances acting and his personal life, he recently replied, “We’re pursuing a relationship first.” When they’re on location, they keep in touch by cell phones — and visits to their respective sets. On Valentine’s Day, Aniston arrived at her Friends dressing room to find it overflowing with roses; on the wall Pitt had spelled out — in rose petals — “I love my wife.”

When they’re together, they’re homebodies, seemingly seeking a sense of normalcy. Home life could soon revolve around the Craftsman-style house the couple is restoring in the hills of Hollywood. (Other reports have had them looking to buy one of Los Angeles’ legendary estates.)

Settling into marriage has left Aniston open to the next phase of her life. No doubt her biological clock has been a consideration as she inches toward 35. Time is clearly on her husband’s mind. Three years shy of 40, with his desire for as many as seven kids, Pitt said recently: “Look, I’m in my thirties…I don’t want to waste time.”

Aniston has high hopes for motherhood. “I’d like to be the perfect mom,” she said in an interview, “but someone for whom it’s okay to be flawed.” When asked during an online chat about raising children in the spotlight, she replied, “You have to keep them away from that world. . . . You have to keep their lives very normal.” And, in what seemed like a reference to the children in her future, she added: “Being raised with a silver spoon has a lot of downsides. Kids have to realize there are chores and jobs. . . . It’s not all glitz and glamour.”

It’s a sentiment few Hollywood couples seem to understand as keenly as Aniston and Pitt. Staying grounded amid all the challenges of celebrity is a sure prescription for a happy home — for a family of any size.

Okay, I guess I am not as good with the denials as a certain someone coz it seems I keep having to repeat myself. So here it is once again,

“AG and GC will consider getting married if everyone in the world who wants to get married is allowed to.”

Don’t let AG fool you guys. This is just AG-speak for “Porgie cheated on me again with “the briefcase girl” and I’m not speaking to him…again.”

I know this is waaaay off topic, but I went to the store recently and I glanced at the Vanity Fair magazine with Tomkat on it with their baby. Well I noticed a very strange thing.

In some of the photos the baby clearly has an epicanthic fold then in others also clearly not there. What is up yo???

Gitane - God Bless you and may your wish come true.
