Baby Zahara’s First Rickshaw Ride
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie take their children Maddox and Zahara for a rickshaw ride in Pune, India. This is Maddox’s second rickshaw ride with his parents (first one here). Baby Shiloh sat both of these rickshaw rides out… Brad swats away the paparazzi on this rickshaw ride…
UPDATE :: More pictures in the gallery including more of Brad, Angie, Maddox, and Zahara from Goa Airport this past Saturday. More pictures can be found here.

i love this family
hey i thought there were more pics? but thanks anyway! luv them!
How adorable that Zahara’s included this time… but I’m kinda surprised that they went for it even thought they would have expected other paparazzi snapping photos of them again.. hmm…
so cute!!!!!!!!! i hope they are better protected this time around…
I LOVE this place thanx JJ
Thanks Jared
JJ YOU DID IT…..I KNEW IT….Thank you so much for the new thread. What a lovely picture of this famile.
Well let the who thigh is brad holding debate begin again. Heres to hoping this thread doesnt go down hill.

I guess it’s like living in a royal family. It’s inevetable so they may as well get her used to it in small doses. Besisides, it’s nice to see her somewhere else than getting rushed through airports and such.
that is sweet.
Zahara looks adorable.
Thanks Jared for the new pic and thread, but I can’t see the picture on the thread, what bummer, I guess I just have to wait until I get home, but that is wonderful that Z gets to on her first Rickshaw ride
Thank you Jared for the new pic! Imo this rickshaw drive must be really entertaining and not that chaotic, as we’ve thought. Otherwise why would they venture out the third time, especially with Z? Perhaps we see danger where there is none in reality.
I’ve broguht my last comment from the old thread, as it is a reply to MMZ’s post:
So that comment was really on Oprah, oh, and not posted by you. Hmmm. How interesting.
All I can say, that Oprah can come here, and she will see that most of the time we have intelligent discussions. The thread degenerates only when Xfans come here with their death wishes. It’s all documented here, so I think, it would be really useful for Oprah to come here, and study the dumb and evil posts of haters, wishing illness and death On Brad, Angie and the kids. All of these death wishes are the accomplishment of Aniston’s VF interview.
And Oprah has the means to investigate how many of us post here. Certainly not one person under different names (we all know this for sure), this is the tactic of Xfans. They accuse us of doing something they tend to do. Typical behaviour of the X if you ask me.
So MMZ, I hope you find my answer satisfying lol.

Thank you for the new thread alert. Thank you Jared and Audrey. Let’s hope there’s more pictures. The kids seems to be looking at something interesting.

I can’t see it either Alex. :(

Yes, I do, sorry about my flare up.
Thanks Jared. Maddox and Zahara are such cute kids. How lucky they are to have these two for parents!
Why can ‘t you see it Alex? that is strange.
I will try something.

Hey, wait a gosh darn minute here…. Brad’s touching his *own* thing this time! YaaaaY! LMAO!
OMG, I meant to say his own THIGH, I promise, I swear, LOL, that what I meant to say!!
Please excuse my Freudian slip….I’m sooo embarassed, yet I readily admit I would certainly look if Brad were indeed holding his own thing….. That’s what I get for posting on a class break! Gotta Go!
BBL
Oh… Z. is Brad little girl… They’ re always together…
Madd is so cute. I can’t see Z too well. The last rideprobably wasn’t as bad as it looked, otherwise they wouldn’t go for another one. I want to try a rickshaw ride too.
Ohhh!!!! Jared and Audrey many thanks…. Z is getting so big and she is adorable. Well in 10 days Miss Shiloh turns five months old. Can’t wait to see that gorgeous baby in pics again ;-)
23 | dragonfly -yeah yeah yeah…. ;)
Thx JJ for the pics, love that baby Z is going for a rickshaw ride with the family. she’s so cute :)
I hope you’re all doing well. Lovely pictures and Z is getting big. It’s always great to see them becuase I’m reminded of how open their hearts are.
A couple of years, I used to be friends with someone that I shouldn’t have. She was nice but it wasn’t enough cancel out the bad in her. I remember say that she would never date a man that wasn’t white (she’s white) nor would she adopt a child of color. The reason why and this is an exact quote, “I want my kids to look like me.” I found that quite shallow and I still do. Both my parents are Cambodian and my sisters and I look nothing like them lol We really don’t.
So, I just don’t think that the way your child looks shouldn’t matter just like whether they’re adopted or not. To me there is no difference between a child coming a his/her mother’s womb into her arms or to to another person’s heart and home. I’m sorry if I sound strange or preachy.

Brads little baby
raqchel,
“Heres to hoping this thread doesnt go down hill. ”
What do you mean by that? Think you should pay more attention to expressing yourself than worrying about how others express themselves.
Lovely pic of the four together! Now, if we only could see little Shiloh! Thanks J.
as much as i like looking at brangelina + family pics i feel they should be left alone sometimes
Thanks Jared. Very nice pics indeed.
Simply love those kids. Shiloh must be adorable around five months now. I just love babies from five months to twelve months of age.
Aww que lindo
#29
Thanks Just jared for the new thread. It is good to see B and A not sheltering their children but at the same time protecting them. You can tell that they care and love all 3 children.
#29 Amaya, I really liked your post. It was very thoughtful and insightful. Thanks again, Just Jared.
MOTIVES QUESTIONED
Madonna’s motives have been questioned, as commentators wonder whether the 48-year-old is imitating other “A”-list stars.
Jolie has adopted children from overseas and Africa has become a major draw for celebrity campaigners including Gwyneth Paltrow and U2’s Bono.
“I think in her mind she thinks she’s doing the right thing and putting her money where her mouth is,” said Michael Musto, a celebrity columnist for the Village Voice in New York.
“But I think the cynicism is coming from the fact that this looks like a copycat of Angelina’s actions and Madonna seems to view an African orphan as the latest hot accessory.”
Another raw nerve exposed by the adoption story has been what outsiders view as the special treatment given to Madonna because of her wealth, fame and power.
Malawian law bans adoptions by non-residents, but officials are granting an exemption to Madonna.
“The rich shouldn’t get preferential treatment. I am fine with the idea of the adoption but I want people to go through the system,” said Emmie Chanika, director of the Civil Liberties Committee.
———————–
Poor madonna. I’m starting to feel bad for her - as people everywhere are questioning her motives.
I think she would have gotten less backlash if the child had been orphaned.
This boy’s father is alive, and is speaking to the press (he’s happy that his son is being adopted by Madonna - but why wouldn’t he be? He himself put him in the orphanage.) Some are saying why take this boy away from his father and his culture - why not just give the Dad the money to raise him.
They should have done a bit more research, maybe waited a little longer.
Now, I am see the pictures, well except for the first first one., but that is okay Beautiful pictures, thanks Jared for adding more pics. Z is so adorable
Thanks JJ, there seems to be one or two shots only, it seems that they were able to escape the paps again, and I think only one or two of them were able to take pics.
Im wondering again, with the new pics at Goa airport, if they actually brought Shiloh with them. I dont see their nanny with them nor any other person with a baby and not a sight of a stroller. They must have left her at the hotel, but its also unlikely. I mean how did they hide her? They must have found a clever way to do it. I think thats why Brad seems to be always on the lookout for paps.

Thank you for taking the time out to worry about how im expressing myself, I really appreciate your concern. So to break it down to you as if you are five what im trying to say is I hope this board does not become another one where every one is fighting back and forth about the same thing. Okay do I need to break it down again for you or are you straight?
I meant “can” not ‘am”

Regarding Madonna’s adopted kid, it’s easy for people to criticize her, but they forget that some men just don’t want to bothered by a young kid. In their mind, the kid hinders their chance to find a new mate.
I have a serious problem with someone adopting a kid who has a parent and who has the means to assist that parent in raising that kid. The best interest of the child is not what Madonna has in mind. I hope Lourdes divorces Madonna as a parent one day!
Rosie talked about Madonna’s adoption on The View and since they’re friends, I trust her as a reliable source. According to her, there is no “waiting list” for adoptions in Malawi unlike China. So, the reports that Madonna “cut in line” are wrong. And Rosie also said, that Madonna didn’t decide on a whim to just adopt him when she got there. She and her family had decided to welcome another child into their lives and home months before. When the father put him up for adoption it wasn’t “temporary” he did so because he just couldn’t provide for him and legally, he did sign away his rights as his father. I’m just relying what Rosie said.
Speaking of Adoption-Z was brought home in July 2005 right? I am wondering how long the process took-
35 | Tijen | ITA I love that age and I keep on comparing my neighbours daughter to Shiloh, she is about 3 weeks older, but since their house is right next door I have seen her growing up, she is now teething big time and babbeling like crazy and we all try to figure out what she is saying and she started solids, so pretty soon Shiloh will be in the “da da da ” stage of course that always comes first before the “ma ma ma” stage :lol:
Way to go Rosie - sticking up for Madge! She’s a great friend, and I know Madonna appreciates that she’s on TV and has that kind of forum, so she can end speculation that isn’t true.

JOHANNESBURG, South Africa (CNN) — Twelve-year-old Koketso Motshoane is just one of many millions of children in Africa orphaned by AIDS. She has five other siblings scattered across various orphanages whom she gets to see just once a year.
She’s never heard of pop star Madonna but says she’d jump at the chance to be adopted by anyone willing to give her a home, celebrity or not.
“I would feel happy,” she says. “Because I have no mother.” (Watch Koketso Motshoane describe her feelings on adoption — 3:38 Video)
But some child-welfare activists are up in arms when it comes to celebrities canvassing the continent in search of orphaned babies.
Koketso lives in an orphanage along with 58 other children between 12 weeks and 21 years old in Johannesburg. It’s run by Gail Johnson, a white South African who adopted a black child she named Thabo Jeffrey Johnson after she found him abandoned in a warehouse five years ago on Christmas morning.
This is her second black adoption. Her first child died of AIDS when he was only 12 years old. (Watch Madonna visit African orphans — 1:30 Video)
Johnson has two biological children, now in their 30s, but she believes she has the right to offer the best care she can to children abandoned or orphaned.
“It would freak me out to give him up, but if there’s a young couple who want him or a black couple who want him, I would hand him over,” she says.
Johnson sympathizes with Madonna and other celebrities who’ve adopted African babies, saying cross-cultural and cross-continental adoption is fine as long as it’s done in a genuine manner.
“The bottom line if someone wants to and it’s sincere, it’s not a publicity stunt or whatever — why not?” she says. “If you look at Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, he’s adopted her two little ones prior to her having her own in Namibia. Now that’s sincerity as far as I’m concerned.”
But dozens of Malawi’s human rights groups are taking legal action as a boy that Madonna is trying to adopt there, 13-month-old David Banda, has been flown out of the country accompanied by her bodyguard.
Malawian law prohibits adoptions by non-residents. Typically people who want to adopt must spend 18 months in the country being evaluated by child welfare workers.
But Madonna was granted custody last week due to what her lawyers called “special circumstances.”
Eye of the Child, the group that is spearheading the legal fight, expresses a fear that exceptions made for celebrities could open the door for child traffickers.
Other charities are delighted that Madonna has publicized the plight of some 900,000 orphans in Malawi. She also has pledged $3 million to help the country’s orphans, and her charity, Raising Malawi, is setting up an orphan center.
In South Africa, Lynne Cawood of rights group Childline says the adoption issue “has to be handled sensitively.”
“The whole issue of intercultural adoption, whether a white child in a black family or a black child in a white family, is a very controversial one,” says Cawood.
“Very often, children’s identities get formed within their family, and where children identify themselves as different from their biological families, that is an issue that that child has to grapple with and come to terms with,” she says.
Johnson insists the alternative is bleak because the number of children in Africa losing parents to AIDS is growing and adoption, though a last resort, is the only option. (Watch why the boy’s father turned him over to the orphanage — 2:30 Video)
“I get quite a lump when I try and visualize a little one going to bed with nothing and I can’t. It hurts too much because it’s wrong,” she says.
Cawood agrees. “We would rather have a good home overseas than no home in Africa.”
CNN’s Paula Hancocks contributed to this report.
how cute…Z carring her blanket and sucking her thumb or pacey…
soooooooooooooooo cute!!!
Yeah…another one . THanks JJ/Audrey.
These lucky kids will have these rides in their memories thru pictures.
Love to see them together all the time.
I was just thinking…looking at that sweet baby girl…
You know Oprah would rather meet Zahara than Daisey the White German Shepherd. LMAO Boy was she stupid, alienating Brad like that.
Guli -
Same here. Whenever I see a baby girl around Shiloh’s age, I pay close attention and imagine her doing similar things. Hoping that we see a recent picture of Shiloh sometime soon..but I can be patient!
Well, that makes alot of sense. The first rickshaw ride was so chaotic and unsafe, so let’s take our little girl on one!!!!
#38: Madonna’s mistake was making such a big production out of adopting and wanting instant results with her money. She was riding the adoption wagon because she thinks it’s the hot trend right now. She’s ran out of ideas on how to hog the spotlight and keep it on her.
If Angelina is getting all this publicity because she adopted some orphans, then by golly, so would she. Also if Angelina can give money and be called humanitarian, then so could she…and no measly $300,000 either. She’s going to make it 10 times more…let it not be said that she is a cheapie!

Actually…….what I’d like to see is Brad holding Angie’s thing, but, you know how it is…. ;)
ahhhh!!! there’s nothing like a fresh thread! thanks jared! you prove every day that you’re the world’s best blogger…
i have to respectfully disagree with anyone who has a problem with madonna adopting this child. i’m not a fan of hers, but the idea that she should have just given his father money so that he could raise him is unrealistic. is that what everyone should do? there are many adoptions in process and on the books where the biological parents are still alive and opt to give up legal rights to their children because they are unable or unwilling to give the child the proper care. should we throw money at them and give their children back to them? under what conditions?
if madonna had simply given the man money, david’s only advantages would consist of being in his own culture with his biological parent in a third world country that faces many other problems. being adopted by madonna and guy ritchie gives that child so much more than he would have had in malawi. he has two parents and siblings now and a life of privilege ahead of him. also, who’s to say that madonna won’t keep in touch with this child’s father or make sure that he understands his origins? what she’s done is a good thing, and although i’m still not a fan, but i admire her for it.
I had a feeling the rickshaw rides were blown out of proportion, if they didn’t enjoy the first one , they wouldn’t have gone on the second one and now they have done it again. They are having a good time, i’m glad.
or that they are just too stupid!!
that’s better than Jennifer Aniston who posed for magazine covers, get compensated, and dont give back to society
Tijen, I posted this at the other thread have you seen the video where the X forgets to thank Brad :lol: It just shows you what is important to her and this was in 2003 when BP and AJ hadn’t even met…. Well….
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=P0aJ7_x_dlw
i think the rickshaw was done in goa since no papz knew where they went last weekend (twas only when they are coming back to pune)so they decided to do it again there w/ Z. the four of them was so calm unlike the first rickshaw…love it.
Zahara looks very cute. Thanks Jared.
As for Madonna the big problem is that Malawian law prohibits adoptions by non-residents and they are doing an exemption for her. I bet her intentions are good, but just because you have money doesn’t mean you don’t have to follow the legal process.
Friends of Aniston’s now say the split was a temporary “break.” The couple has not been together in six weeks….

71 | dragonfly
Yes it could get more scripted they could draw out two or three years of will they or wont they get back together.
$46: Rosie is a liar. Malawi has a strict rule for people regarding adoption that is why that country has only had a few foreign adoptions. Last year, it was only 3!!
To adopt there, the prospective parents are obligated to stay for 18 months and that was mandatory so they could do evaluatee you. Madonna was granted a waiver by a judge because she was rich and famous. It wasn’t fair for others that have been going through the system at the time!
i’m sorry, i did not realize there was a new thread and thank you. i really wanted to know what anyone thought about a post i placed on the last thread and hope noone has a problem with me posting it over here cause i really wonder what others think. i had to leave and when i came back everyon was gone!

i really want to know when the balance of power happen. when did they decide i wonder that Brad’s role was now daddy in every sense, you know given permission for Madd to things, Madd haven to ask Brad first for stuff, punishment and reward times. i also wonder if Angelina has felt twinges of jealousy when maybe their son turned to his dad instead of her for something or other. it would be normal since she had Mad all that time alone. i just love this little growing globetrotting family and God bless them.

*********************************
I feel the same way. I did read that Madge said she would bring the boy back for frequent visits, and I think she will. I have never been a serious fan of Madonna, but like Angie, I think she catches alot of stinky-poo for being a strong woman who goes after what she wants in life. American society hates nothing else more than a strong woman.
Plus, if she were to just give the Dad money, he would then become a target for people to scam him and rip him off because all his other less fortunate friends and acquantances would know he has money. And also, we don;t know this guy’s character… he could take the money and use it all for himself. I think overall Madonna is genuine and doing a good thing, too.
Baby Shiloh is always with them. Stop the rumor already. Read all the comments from people who saw them. Pictures are only for moments in time.

Muahahaha! Someone should write Janice Min and tell her to mention in her next story on Chin, right after she writes that bit about…”The couple has not been together in six weeks….”

Thank you JJ and Audrey. Love the bracelets Zee is wearing! ITA that Shiloh was with them in Goa - they just work to keep her out of sight - just like the rest of us would in the same circumstances.
57 | the real tita | STHU, u don’t know what her intentions were. She did not issue a press release about her adoption, its the PRESS who feels its their right to give out personal information. No one adopts a child for PR…. adoption is for life and as someone stated on the other thread, Guy contacted Brad about adoption and they’ve been emailing Angie for a while. Give the woman a break…. No one gives a CRAP about these kids in Africa, they couldn’t care less and as soon as M, Angie or anyone else decide to do something about it everyone is up in arms.
Nice to see Zahara out and about . She wanted to ride in the ricksaw too! Thanks Jared!

let’s not forget what madonna would open herself up to. she probably already gets ridiculous amounts of solicitation for monetary help. can you imagine what she would open up in her life if she just handed this man money? adopting the child and taking him in to her home and into family shows a lot more love and responsibility than just giving someone a handout.
as for the legal side-stepping, i don’t know the details, but from what i’ve read, the Malawian government gave their permission. i think the onus is on them to explain why they gave madonna special treatment and don’t give other prospective adoptive parents the same privileges.
85 | WHAT??? | Oh my GOD, I really havn’t been in a good mood since it has been raining non stop here in Columbus, but man you cracked me up… Thanks for the laugh :lol:
I don’t think it was necessary to tell Real TIta to STHU. She was not derogstory in her post. I do think what Rosie said does not go with what I’ve heard. That’s said, I am assumming that Madfonna/Richie adopted the baby because they wanted to and it was not a publ;icty stunt.
I think it is great to see Zahara right the rickasaw with her family. Shiloh is far too young to ride on one of these things.
#85 I’llj ust say bit once, I’m not going top tell you where from the tone of what you’ve written. Go away!
i love them…no matter what!!!!!!!
#85 I’ll just say this once is what I meant to say.
Maddox looks as if he had something in his mind — very cute. Zahara looks like just too small to make any difference about what’s going on in front of her eye — cute in her own tiny little ways. Suspiciously lacking in all the pictures of the family is Shiloh.
Maddox was 5 months old when adopted by Jolie, and Zahara was 6 months old. Both were carried around as Jolie went from place to place. I wonder why the different treatment with Shiloh.
Both Maddox and Zahara have helped tremendously with their parents’ image, and they are very effective in their roles. Perhaps that’s why they are included everywhere the parents go. Shiloh is the natural born and there’s no statement needs to be made. It’s obvious: the parents did one of those usual physical things and there she was created. There’s no moral highground to claim.
–The VerySkeptical
Yeah, can people please stop asking why she’s not with them on every outing, and assuming it’s because they don’t want her pic taken…
please. come on.
She’s not even 5 months old.
While she’s certainly old enough to travel, they still have to take precautions as a baby’s immune system isn’t like an adults - bottomline, it’s best she stay in the suite.

******************************
Hay, glad to lure you out! And seriously, I think Brad looks for ANY excuse to act 10 again, haha!! He seems like a big ol’ kid, especially in Toronto, making those faces for the camera, he was brimming over with happiness.
I have also wondered when alot of the same things happened because it all happened so FAST, you know? The only thing I can say is that Angie seems to go with her gut feelings on things, and somehow she just knew Brad was *the one*. I truly do not think she knew of any of his marital woes until Italy and the MAMS reshoots in Oct 04. And even then, I don’t think that’s when they actually talked about getting together as a couple. Just my opinion, but I think Brad did open up to her on that trip, and they both knew they were incredibly attracted and turned on by each other, but Brad also knew that if he made any move to try and jump Angie’s bones while he was still married, she would turn tail and run. I have a feeling they both left Italy knowing there was going to be more to their story, but neither one was sure what was going to happen. Brad knew what he had to do, he had to get out of his miserable excuse of a marriage, and Angie, having gotten to know him as a friend first, probably went from feeling like “Wow, he’s so great, Jennifer is lucky to have him. Too bad he’s married.”, to feeling like, “Hmmmm…..maybe this could go somewhere. After he’s available again.”
So, since they had a history and a TRUST connection already, once they became intimate, I think Mr. Braddy just rocked Angie down to her toenails. She knew she could trust him with everything. Jealousy? Nah, Angie’s not that way about anything.
#86: STHU yourself. I still stand by what I said. She knew going in what was requisite for adoption. If she’d gone through the system like anybody else had done, then I would have been the first to applaud. If she’d tried harder to get under the radar and then just pronounced the adoption after it was a fait accompli (just like Meg Ryan or Angelina) then I wouldn’t suspect her motives.
This woman doesn’t do anything that doesn’t have any benefit for her at the end. There were many African countries that didn’t have such strict rules regarding adoption and are begging that their kids be chosen. Read the article that a poster had pasted above. But Madonna must insist on Malawi.

bravo…the best post ever. i totally agree w/ you
God, I love this family.
first they were up in arms because brad & angie had shiloh’s picture taken when she was so young. now they’re up in arms because she isn’t seen everywhere with them and the assumption is that they don’t want her picture taken.
it is not uncommon for parents to take their older children out more often than the younger. the four of them look sardined in that tiny rickshaw and i doubt shiloh would have appreciated the ride or the disturbance of her nap.

Great post.
101 | the real tita | And so what if she does it to benefit herself, its also helping someone else, while u sit on your a*s critising…. but if it make u feel like the bigger person GOOOOO right ahead, but then again u are a Bush lover so its expected

Yes, I actually remember watching that telecast on TV and being shocked that she forgot to thank him. The story shortly after was that she was mad at him for rearranging the furniture once again and that she has tripped over something in the living room and broke her toe or something ridiculous like that…That’s why the cain!But my heart just broke for him that night.
You know Guli , I have been in love with him for a very long time now. Gwynneth, Jennifer, and Angelina are simply people that I have gotten interested in simply because they were in his life. And that is the honest truth!
CLINIQUA, Shiloh’s immune system? I would assume Zahara had more of that to worry about (medically and physically speaking, no disrepected intended) when she was first adopted.
I wonder why the different treatment with Shiloh.
95 | The Skeptical
Because the media and the public treat Shiloh differently than her siblings. Can you tell me why when Angelina adopted Zahara, people did not donate thousands of dollars worth of baby products to the Jolie-Pitts? Can you tell me why People magazine was willing to give millions to charity for pics of Shiloh and not when Zahara was adopted? Can you tell why there was bounty on Shiloh on not Maddox or Zahara?
Also…people use a little common sense. India is now going through its monsoon season and the weather is sticky, sometimes windy, and humid. A lot of disease gets around very quickly in that kind of weather. India is right now facing a crises with Denegue spreading and they are trying to get it under control. If you are a smart parent, you do not bring a 4 month baby into a richshaw or expose them to all the conditions. Use some freaking common sense.
I ran out of room for my post #100, and just wanted to complete my thought, that I don’t think Angie feels any twinges of jealously towrds brad and Mad’s relationship. She and Brad both seem to be rather postive people, so I think she dwells more on what Brad brings to the lives rather than anything he may be taking away from her. A boy needs a daddy, and she knows she found a PEARL in Brad. He’s a keeper! Her face in the Ann C interview when she was preggers said it all. Sistah-girl was glowing! Only true happiness can that look. ;)!

Thank you for meaningless analysis, please go to the thread about the VV/JA trainwreck, and analyze them.
And Maddox went all over Africa at his young age with his mother, Jolie.
Of course, any other possibly sensible explanation cannot be ruled out yet.
95 | The Skeptical - ROTFLMAO, thanks for the laughed, I love to laugh at stupid joke. They are so stupid that most of the time you can only laugh at it. *goodness, my stomach hurt*. Do you have any more stupid joke….please keep it to yourself, I don’t think my stomach can handle another stupid joke like that….oye….
BDJ, thanks but man, there are so many typos in that post. lol I think just it’s wonderful when a person decides to share their life, heart and home with a child whether it be through adoption or otherwise.
i have to respectfully disagree with anyone who has a problem with madonna adopting this child. i’m not a fan of hers, but the idea that she should have just given his father money so that he could raise him is unrealistic. is that what everyone should do? there are many adoptions in process and on the books where the biological parents are still alive and opt to give up legal rights to their children because they are unable or unwilling to give the child the proper care. should we throw money at them and give their children back to them? under what conditions?
if madonna had simply given the man money, david’s only advantages would consist of being in his own culture with his biological parent in a third world country that faces many other problems. being adopted by madonna and guy ritchie gives that child so much more than he would have had in malawi. he has two parents and siblings now and a life of privilege ahead of him. also, who’s to say that madonna won’t keep in touch with this child’s father or make sure that he understands his origins? what she’s done is a good thing, and although i’m still not a fan, but i admire her for it.
63 | gitane |
I couldn’t agree with you more. There is no disputing that Madonna and Guy received special treament from the Malawian govenrment and I’m glad they did. Why? Because now people are beginning to question and reaccess the laws in Malawi. With almost 1 million orphans in the country, where 1 in 10 adults have HIV - is the law that is currently on the books in the best interest of the children? Is it in the best interest of the child for the prospective parent to have to reside in Malawi for a minimum of 18 months before adoption is granted? How many people can really afford to do that? This has become much greater than Madonna and Guy and that sweet little boy David. This is about what are we as human beings going to do about the millions of children globally who seek parents.
111 | The Skeptical
Angelina and Maddox were NOT STALKED in Africa and were free to roam. That is not possible in India. Damn, I’m so sick of ignorant people. Maddox was about three when he went with Angelina to Africa, Shiloh is 5 months old.
zahara rocks!!!!
The Very Skeptical, should be re-dubbed the Very Stupid…
Shiloh isn’t 6 months, or 5 months. She’s newly 4 months. ..and she was out and about in New Orleans munching on mudbugs. So that means they had her out even earlier than the other two kids. Why don’t you just sit back and relax, and have your fingers poised over the keys at the end of the month when Shiloh is officially the same age Mad was when he was out with his Mom.
I don’t think I need to remind you however, that having 3 kids in all and toting them everywhere, is a lot diff than being a single mom with one baby in a bjorn.
The skeptical, last seen as Jen, better known as Ritzy. Best to ignore. She is just another baiter. BP and AJ are good parents and know how to take care of all three children. Peace.
I’m sorry for the cheesiness that I’m about to release in this post……
But can’t we just all get along? :) Please?
That’s right Shiloh is 4 months old….nevertheless, “the skeptical” is a joke trying to make spectacle out of herself.
Give it up. They are together and they love their kids. The end.
Okay so I don’t get it….it was such a fiasco first go round and everyone was screaming that the paps were bad…so what, they thought they’d do it again with Zahara. Someone please explain that unsafe logic. Why do they not remember how bad it was last time?
#105: hey, 4Q quit it with your personal attack okay? Don’t assume to know me and how the heck did Bush get into this picture? If you can’t stick to a civil conversation or give an outright response to an opinion, then don’t talk to me, alright?
Why, are you the only one with a right to express what you think in this thread? Who the heck are you to call me out!

hullo there! yet another benefit of the hullabaloo surrounding madge’s good deed! i hope the malawian government does reconsider its residency requirement. i hope that a lot of other countries, do too. there are so many developing nations with obscene populations of orphaned children who have some prolonged residency stipulation that deters prospective adoptive parents. ethiopia, cambodia and haiti are adoption hotspots because they practically hand the kids over to you with little fuss. everywhere else is a hassle and much more expensive. so if dear old madge has cleared the way for folks like me to adopt internationally with less stress, i owe her a debt of thanks.
CLINIQUA, Shiloh’s immune system? I would assume Zahara had more of that to worry about (medically and physically speaking, no disrepected intended) when she was first adopted.
107 | The Skeptical

Zahara was in Malibu. Shiloh is in India. HELLOOOO??!! There’s a diff. Also Zahara was still 6 Months, and Shiloh is 4 mos.
“Shiloh isn’t 6 months, or 5 months. She’s newly 4 months. ..and she was out and about in New Orleans munching on mudbugs. So that means they had her out even earlier than the other two kids.”
Does that mean the parents were being careless about her poor immune system? LOL
–Compare posts 117 and 95 by the same person.
Love this family! I am a huge fan of baby Z. I hope her parents will take a class (they do have them) where they can be taught how to care for Z’s hair…I’d like to see her in more pig tales and things!!!

I was watching CNN today and they had a segment on Malawi. One part focused on a 9 year old girl who was cooking on a makeshift stove. She had become the parent to her own mother who is dying, not living with, but dying of AIDS. This is a generation of children who must take care of their own parents. These children are the ones out looking for food, they’re the ones made to physically protect their parents and younger siblings from predators. The adoption laws in Malawi don’t have to be thrown away but they do have to change and change quick.
If anyone could help me. I am looking pictures of Angelina when she bought Zahara back in the US from Ethiopia.
#127 Guli
Hey guli, I don’t what’s wrong w/ my video because I’m watching it right now on youtube….it’s probably the site because this past weekend it wasn’t working for me. When I added a video to my playlist it would add it twice. But a few minutes later it was fine. I would at least think that things would change around once google bought it . I guess I was wrong lol
Okay so I don’t get it….it was such a fiasco first go round and everyone was screaming that the paps were bad…so what, they thought they’d do it again with Zahara. Someone please explain that unsafe logic. Why do they not remember how bad it was last time?

Dude. We don’t know where they were. They may not have even been in Pune. I’m sure Brangelina would be moved to tears to know of your concern for there well-being, but stop thinking that just because you see a still pic, you’re aware of the circumstances behind it.

Madonna’s open letter to the media
Posted: 17 October 2006 - Thanks to Vickster
Madonna has written an open letter to the press to explain the reasons around her and Guy’s adoption of baby David:
My husband and I began the adoption process many months prior to our trip to Malawi.
I did not wish to disclose my intentions to the world prior to the adoption happening as this is a private family matter.
After learning that there were over one million orphans in Malawi, it was my wish to open up our home and help one child escape an extreme life of hardship, poverty and in many cases death, as well as expand our family.
Nevertheless, we have gone about the adoption procedure according to the law like anyone else who adopts a child. Reports to the contrary are totally inaccurate.
The procedure includes an 18-month evaluation period after which time we hope to make this adoption permanent.
This was not a decision or commitment that my family or I take lightly.
I am overwhelmed and inspired by my trip to Malawi and hope that it helps bring attention to how much more the world needs to do to help the children of Africa.
My heartfelt thanks for all the good wishes I have received and I hope the press will allow my family some room for us to experience the joy we feel to have David home.

No eejit, that means she was in New Orleans on one outing with her parents and siblings in a restaurant. Once again, she was in the USA not India. I have no time for people who can’t follow simple logic. Letting your baby hang out in what is still considered the Third World by some, and thousands of miles away from home is diff than being in a 5 star restaurant in The French Quarter. Duh.
Both Mad and Z were already 7 month old when adopted by AJ.
Maddox was born August 5, 2001 and adopted March 10, 2002.
Zahara was born January 8, 2005 and adopted July 6, 2005.
Shiloh is now 4 1/2 month old. She was born May 27, 2006.
Please haters continue whining on your Anistonthread. Why can’t you talk about her life, which is so exciting? Walking the dog, tanning, getting manucure, pedicure, hair straigthening, whining a bit, lying a bit, hey, she is so fascinating, I can’t believe you are here, and analyze kids pics. What’s wrong with you? Lol, we all know.
129 | Maniston
oh that makes my heart hurt! there is no describing the depth of good madge and angie have done by adopting david & zahara. if madge had just handed over some cash, david’s future could have been like that little girl you described. not to mention all the health risks he’d have to face, AIDS included. zahara might have died if brad & angie hadn’t found her. there’s just no way i can even think about criticizing somebody because they adopt or where they adopt from. there’s too many precious little lives at stake.

Oh my mutha fookin’ God! I simply cannot beleive the way some people are making this into such a federal issue.
It’s a rickshaw ride, folks. Nothing more, nothing less. People do it everyday, and *gasp* they even bring their kids. No need to go all frothy at the mouth.
I bet Shiloh probably got nursed and put down for a nap, and so the older kids wouldn’t wake her up, mommy and daddy took them out for a little fresh air. Parents do it everyday, no big deal.
108-stardust
I TA ,this is very true.
What you said about the weather conditions conducive to illnesses is something to consider when taking a baby out. Their personal physician must have advised them also.
Sure I miss Shiloh but I can wait until they get
back here in the US. JJ alert ….. They only have about 2 weeks left in INDIA.
Baby Z is to die for, just gorgeous, To be able to just do almost anything you want. This Fam, is so blessed, and beautiful
133 | Mabelline | If it makes u to feel that they are being careless with their kids, goooo right ahead….
So what did you not see the footage of the first ride…..man you worshipers are really getting bad….so these two can do NO wrong. it was most definitaely BAD jusdgement to put those children back in that rick shaw and if you don’t think so…..you’ve lost your minds. These two are capable of mistakes and they’ve just made another one. This is about the 5th glaring mistake since they’ve been in this country.

I repeat, we don’t even know if this was in the same city, or place — and furthermore just because they’re in an auto rikshaw that doesn’t imply a crate of boxes on a 10 speed. They could be in Goa, or in a totally diff part of Pune..you’re only seeing the inside of the vehicle you dunce. Shaddup, and go fret over Daisy being out at the beach with no sunblock on her fur.
thanks JJ. They are awesome and you are so amazing! Gosh I cant believe this! Wow! Please, please keep up the good work JJ. Love you buckets!!!
I’m just wondering why you never see their biological child with them. Are they trying to prove something by always having the other 2 with them, like letting everyone know that they are not going to forget the other 2. While it looks bad that they never have baby shiloh with them.
So what did you not see the footage of the first ride…..man you worshipers are really getting bad….so these two can do NO wrong. it was most definitaely BAD jusdgement to put those children back in that rick shaw and if you don’t think so…..you’ve lost your minds.

And you haters are worse. You look for anything, any reason at all to bash. The way they walk, they way they sit, they way they hold the kids. Dayum, give it a rest, already. Besides, how do you know this ride had as many photogs along? I am thinking it didn’t because there are not as many pictures. You are making alot of assumptions, and I am holding any opinions about it until I know more. Stop being so judgemental.
Thanks Maniston.
well if she did all the procedures then it’a all good like I said I beleive her intentions are good. David it’s going to have a very fortunate life with the Ritchie family.
So true. And not only is he a pearl and a keeper, he’s HOT!!!

******************************
Of course! And I am sure Angie enjoys that fringe benefit on a regular basis, honey! LOL!
People in India ride auto -rickshaws everday with their kids. You don’t even want to see how many kids are piled up on a rickshaw that is being pulled by a person riding a bike.
It NOT bad judgement to put those kids in a autorickshaw and if you think it is….all I have to say is that you are ignorant.
India is hard country to understand…things are done differently when you are there….if you haven’t been there or lived there….you simply will never understand some of the circumstances.
First thanks JJ for the Pics!!!!!
Second why always analyze the pics. Sit and enjoy . That is what I do. Great to see them all, and we know when they come back to US , it would be less pics from BAMZS family.
I applaud Madonna and Gay for adoption.
I though Maddox was 7 months old when he first went to Africa.
Hello All,
I swear to God, all I can say is awwwww. Goodness, the li’l girl is just to cute. Is that a pacifier in her mouth? That would explain the thumb sucking….Just look at Daddy with his girl…..awwwwwwwww.
Just finished on the last threw and whew! That was some roller coaster ride…..I laughed, I frowned…..I almost cried at the sheer stupidity of some. All in all, No one can accuse JJ of being boring. Speaking of…
Thanks Jared, you’re the best man.
I have to clarify this. I have lived in India for 20 odd years and travelled in Rickshaw atleast a thousand times. Many school children travel in rickshaws to go to school. I’m not saying it’s safe , it is just as safe as travelling in any other vehicle in India. It wd be difficult to take a another child who cannot stand/sit on their own. I perfectly understand why they didn’t take shiloh.
Peace
63 | gitane | - Hey Gitane, ITA with you regarding Madonna, I think what she is doing is a wonderful thing, she is going to give David a very good life and opportunities that he would never get if he stayed in Malawi. I really don’t understand what the big fuss is all about; sometimes I just think that people just like to complain about nothing. I guess some people rather little David stay in the orphanage for the rest of his life, than be given the opportunity to have a good life with Madonna.
Nice pictures, I am glad they aren’t letting others dictate their actions. Rickshaw rides are fu.
As far as the threads go why even spend your own energy talking about others who don’t share your viewpoint. I think it is crazy for people to come to the thread but I also think it is crazy to spend so much time referring to them. Ignoring them means just that. Don’t give them the attention they crave. Don’t even worry about a board being taken over by negative attention because then you are spending your time worrying about them.

I think that is part of the problem, that you have people outside of the Indian culture trying to look at this through their own cultural filters and they are making uninformed judgements and opinions. When in Rome….
And great observation some of the other posters here have made, this ride may not even be in Pune at all. Again, too many people are drawing conclusions and making assumptions when they don’t know Sh*t from shine-ola.

rickshaw in india is a common rides…meaning an ordinary vehicle that the ordinary people ride into. we( including me
& you) dont know where that particular place in india took place so dont assume anything in that picture.remember they went to goa last weekend w/o the papz knowing it. what if that rickshaw ride took place in goa?..w/out the papz disturbing their day out w/ the 2 kids?! oh please leave them alone.if you dont like B/A dont waste your time posting here. we are not their worshippers as you speak. we just love this family & we are not losing our minds. yes you are right these two are capable of mistakes coz they are humans, dont you?as you said this is their 5th mistake?ohh how dare you…are you perfect?what did this family done to you that you are so miserable? leave this family alone dont cha? or i may say you cant leave them simply because you adored them sooo much that you cant even resist not to post…

The fact that the twenty-something Bryce Howard directed her short film BY HERSELF - while 6 mos. pregnant…
..while co-dependent d*mn near 40 yr old Aniston, CO-DIRECTED with a girlfriend, and makes self-deprecating comments about even that small accomplishment (not giving her friend hardly any credit) —
…says so much about the kind of woman each one is. One scared, afraid to try anything under her own steam, needing a partner to either ’share blame with’ or take all of the blame…is Aniston all the way…
..meanwhile Bryce jumps right in, secure in her abilities and full of character and strength.
Jen Aniston is pretty sad.

thanx for responding dragonfly. you may have it right about italy but i still feel closer to them knowing their feelings much later. im seeing it being close aftr the divorce got filed. i really think this becuase it’s just one of those hinky feelings that needle you. i do believe they both fell early but it was not aknowledgd to each other in any way and im sorry, but im not so sure Brad confided to her his marriage woes. i just dont think he is a person who would tell his wife business to much anyone let alone the woman who silently had his heart and soul. he’s a good man and a good man wouldn’t imo do that. whenever it happen i’m just glad it did because they seem to have healed a lot of hurt each had and fulfilled a dream or two each had especally Anglie. God knew.

Thank you both for your comments. You summed up what I was trying to say but you said way betten than I could have.

Hi ell,
Sorry i’m not aware of any such site that teaches you how to wear a saree. Best thing to do wd be to ask any indian ladies(u’r best bet wd be someone who lived there for a while). I want to see Angie in a Saree, she wd look great. Anna Kournikova was in india and she wore a beautiful blue saree. She looked great.
171 | African Girl-
did yor read what Ellen Barkin announced:
Ocean’s 13 costar Ellen Barkin announced:
“Yes, I have f— George Clooney. I always heard that George has amazing chemistry with all of his co-stars. Now I see why. … I’m probably the only one of many actresses to stand up here and admit yes, I have f— George Clooney. I’m very proud of it actually. … If you don’t have chemistry with George Clooney, you need to check your pulse.”
hihiihi
(A rep for Barkin insisted the actress, who is recently divorced from Revlon billionaire Ronald Perelman, “was just goofing around. It was a roast. She was being funny.”)
135 | Maniston | - Thanks Maniston. It is amazing to me that people actually think that Madonna went to Malawi for a week or so and just decided right there to adopt without even thinking about, like she said that was something she and her family were planning for a while.

You don’t even have to go there to understand it. My God, how about picking up a boo, search the web. The real questions is are they ready to understand? They sit in their little part of the world and pass judgment on something they know nothing about.
Not part of this convo but I just want to say thanks to whoever turned me on to the Brad interview video with charlie rose on the simply brad pitt site. It was a regular so I’m sure she’s here.
It was 2 threads ago. but I didn’t know how to download it so my daughter just now did it for me and I watched. You could tell he was worlds apart from Jennifer even then in 2004!

I could get behind that theory, too. I guess I am just basing it on the fact that there was such a strong attraction between, it was so evident, that even if it was completely unspoken, they both had to know something was in the air, you know?
And when I say Brad opened up to Angie in Italy, I don’t necessarily think he totally spilled his guts to her…. just that maybe he opened the door a crack, maybe gave her a clue here and there that his personal life wasn’t exactly what he wanted it to be. Either way, whether Brad dropped any hints or not, he definitely left that trip knowing he was going right home and telling Jen he was done, I am sure of it. By then it was early November, and they didn’t want to drop it on their families (mainly Brad’s) right at the beginning of the Holidays, so they had to wait that out…(man, I bet Brad was sweatin’ bullets gettin’ through that and the dumb island trip)…. I would seriously love to know when exaclty he laid all his cards on the table, though. Maybe it was at her house in England? Maybe it was right before or right after the Showest thing? They both sure were standing there at that Showest gig each looking like the cat that ate the canary, for sure, lol! They both reeked of “Shhhh! I’ve got a secret….” and “I know something yoooooou don’t knooooow” haha!!

For those who has no idea what traffic is like in India or how a typical day look like in India. Here’s a very good short clip to educate yourself .. especially those “densed” x fans.

Loooove it. They can hire all kinds of helicopters, private jet and expensive cars. But they just wanna ride the tuk tuk. Starting from now, every tourist going to India would want to ride that tuk tuk, it’s like the ultimate Indian Jetcoaster. The tuk tuk price will be skyrocketing now.

I’m not a good person to ask about how to wear a Sari. But I typed “How to wear a sari” in google and gave me quite a lot of helpful site. Here’s two I found that might help. The best thing to do is like Newbie said. Go to the Indian store where you bought the sari from and ask one of the people there to help you…I’m sure they would not mind.
Here’s two site that might help:

Wonder if the kids are seeing some devestating poverty on the
streets of India. When my mom went there for a UNESCO
conference she came back in shock and cried. Jolie said Mad saw
the conditions in Ethiopia and he understood the children needed
help. Jolie-Pitt kids are getting such a precious education at such
an early age. Yesterday I was talking to my 5 year old about
World Food day, too.
Brad looks FED UP!!! It must suck living life in a bubble! Still, I love to see the latest pictures of them. I hope their life isn’t TOO crazy for them! I can’t wait to see little Shiloh’s pictures soon!

i see what you are saying about a hint or two. whn you’re unhappy not even the best of actors can let the sadnes slip out. england sounds good to me. i was betting around vegas time maybe are when they done that shoot for W, but the issue with then is in that interview Angie said there wasn’t nothin to tell and till there was, or maybe she said it wasn’t that there wasn’t nothing to tell and until there was. im confused now lol. anyways she made me think that maybe they was treding lightly then around being attracted. then kenya but i think that wasnt as hardcore as the tabs susggested. i think next came morocco right in may and then england right? and then Zee, and so my mind says you are probably on the money suggesting uk and then they were off an running and the rest is history lol.

you are on the roll today….that’s so funny…Willie Wonka….hahaha… ( sorry AG! )

I could get behind that theory, too. I guess I am just basing it on the fact that there was such a strong attraction between, it was so evident, that even if it was completely unspoken, they both had to know something was in the air, you know?

——————————–
You know what saddens me, is how much Brad was betrayed by Aniston.
I think when they initially separated, Brad really did think they could remain friends, and “keep the love we have for each other.” He praised her, and talked about what an influence she had been - he really just set it up very nicely for them to “end just as beautifully as they entered the marriage.”
Ironically enough, Aniston has the complete GALL to say these same words, and pretend that she means them in her Vanity Fair piece. Again, the horrid passive aggressive nightmare rears her ugly head.
But back to Brad….
I think he probably felt mortified that he had misjudged this person so badly. Can you imagine? He probably had assured Angelina that everyting was going to work out fine. That he and ‘Jen’ were okay and ending things amicably, with love and respect. …and then BOOM! Aniston’s Vanity Fair piece opens with his ex calling Angie’s character into question (by proxy via Leslie Bennetts), bringing up all those nasty slurs and misperceptions (that Brad had made it a point to denounce publicly in interviews when promoting MAMS - calling Angie the most decent person he’s ever met, and a wonderful Mom, etc.) — then going on to call Brad out, tell his personal business, call him insensitive, label him a possible cheating lying scum, and Angie worse. Talk about being blindsided!! The poor guy, had to sit Angelina down, and tell her - “Look babe, it happened again…I was wrong…I got duped…she didn’t give a sh*t about me - I know that now…she wants to promote herself and her career, and she’s perfectly okay with stabbing me and you in the back to do it.” Here the guy thinks he has a mature, responsible relationship still filled with love and consideration, and Aniston just knifes him in the gut. If you want to know the truth. I really don’t think Shiloh would be here but for Vanity Fair. I think Brad’s the kind of man who may have taken Aniston’s feelings into consideration, and waited a little bit longer, and not rushed so quickly to have a baby with Angie — sure he may have wanted it that fast, but he may have been more circumspect about it (Angie too)…waiting a year at least — maybe they would have started trying around now…
….but after Aniston’s hit job came out…I think he and Angelina both said “EFF the B***H!” we don’t owe her a gd thing…and they did what they wanted to do.

Good evening everyone!
Thanks Jared and Audrey for the new thread.
Well well.. What’s new here? Same old same old I see. Please just try to not pay attention to the “skeptical” ones.(if only they could)LOL! Now we have the Shiloh issue and that Brad and Angie are treating her differently than the Mad and Z. But if Shiloh was with them in their every outing the same people that are complaining for the opposite now they would say “Why the are bringing Shiloh with them? Don’t they know that paparazzi are around? Are they trying to sell her for the public to see? Are they telling us that she is the “chosen one”? And the bit goes on.. They don’t even want to spend some time to their Idol. Her threads are hardly pushing 100 posts lately. But they will manage to stick their asses here to criticize Brad and Angie’s every move. They don’t want an intelligent debate or discussion. Whenever they ask a question there are many different answers with logic and facts in many posts but shortly after another post appears asking the exact same question as before with a different name. They don’t even bother to read the responses. They are no concerned. Just judgmental. The only thing they want is to hate criticize and ruin our threads. Personally I will try at least to not let them have that satisfaction.

I really don’t care about what people say about her motives. I am thankful for all that she has to offer this kids. Hopefully he is going to have a good life with the Ritche family. I hear people judging her just as they judged Angie and Brad.
I am not into Madonna. But I applaude her for researching and taking action.
Peace~
Way to go Rosie - sticking up for Madge! She’s a great friend, and I know Madonna appreciates that she’s on TV and has that kind of forum, so she can end speculation that isn’t true.

Never mind..ignoring from here on out.
IMO one of the most beautiful things about having a child is seeing the world thru his/her eyes. Doing so makes itpossible for the adult to enjoy things like the child does.
I’m thinking they are introducing Zahara to the world slowly, all the commotion that follows this family could really be hard on Z, she is so young. Maddox seems to be an old pro when it comes to being out in public. By the time Z gets use to it all maybe then they will introduce Shiloh. I hope so anyway.
Isn’t Zahara adorable? She looks so tiny sitting there. How old is she can someone tell me?
I love this family 100%
Don’t bite my head off anyone, but I had a dream last night. I was Brad (not Angelina next to brad which just shows you I can’t even get lucky in a dream) And I was laying in bed (as Brad) so tired and trying to sleep angelina already asleep. But I couldn’t because every thought was how to keep my family safe and as nearly normal as possible. And how we’re hunted down like animals. Just one very tired human being in a world of billions, not a god.
207 | CLINIQUA
i think just like this to. he was so kind with his words and when he got on with living without her and smiling about it too miss Jen say “how dare he!”
i blame her for the paps chasing the family everywhre. it is my frim belief that if Miss Jen had cut her loses quitely and without that horrible backstabbing vanity fare story, the press would not be so off the chain. she created her hell with that stupid story and she is who Brad and Angleina should give most credit to for blowing up something that had already quieted down until she decided to be mean and evil by playing nice and angellic.
Who now GC or Willy Wonka Candy Factory???

Except Rosie doesn’t make a huge deal about it to the point that she has to invite Madonna on the View where upon Madonna has a pity fest because of the press coverage and clinks glasses of champagne over her adoption.
The topic of Madonna and adoption was brought up since it’s a current topic and all the ladies on the View gave their opinions and Rosie did too.

Huge Difference .
“no substance one” talk about tabloids, boobs and fake boyfriend.
“no substance one” seek out to be on the talk show and beg pal to give her a spot
“no substance one” talk about a dog instead of human lives .
“no substance one” talk seek out self promotion to make herself feel good
“”no substance one” could not even articulate anything of substance on the given 15 mins national airtime spot .

i get to post a littl longer thank you God lol.
anyway, i have thought he has that going on in his mind very much. he is a good man and i have always thought this and a family orented one who may not live like his family back home but who is still respectufl of how he was raised and retaind many values he saw his dad use about his wife and kids. you can so much see Brad serious about his role as “husband” to Angie and father to his babies and wanting to keep them safe at all times and at all costs.
I just found this on the X board read carefully,
Jen looked nice, her makeup and hair were nice, her dress and shoes her little white puppy.
And she’s so classy all the time poor dear, Brad and Angela made her life a living h*ll and yet she finds time to go on Oprah and do what, what was it she was doing there? Ummmm I know she was ther for a reason but I was too busy thinking about where she got her shoes.

Er, no.
Clearing up speculation in the mainstream press about inferences your previously impoverished orphaned baby’s adoption may have been illegal…so that the said adoption isn’t jeopardized and your baby taken away….
…is a a tad bit MORE IMPORTANT than clearing up In Touch Weekly’s speculation that you got a boob job.
See one is saving a child’s life, the other is waxing on and on about your boobage and talking about yourself in the tabloids….
I know Jen fans have a hard time knowing what their priorities should be…should I donate to a cause, or should I tell Chris to give me more lowlights and weave some more pony hair into my head….

I hope I do not come off as nit pickey. I’m a fan, She is elegant, beautiful and smart..see me as a diamond refiner.
I wish she would not be so fidgity, always seem to be fizing her clothes or her hair..she should get a hair style that she does not have to keep moving from her face.
I suspect that Brad Pitt drank a lot and even hit her sorta.

OG, your dream made me think of something I read in O Magazine over 3 years ago. It is from the first and last issue of O magazine I’ve ever bought or even read, but I’ve kept this issue with me through at least 2 moves. The entire magazine was devoted to women understanding men and it included a roundtable discussion of sorts, comprised of 6 men.
“My kids go to sleep in the safety and security of their parents. My wife goes to sleep in the safety and security of her husband. Do they really want to know that their last line of defense is just as scared as they are?”

Maybe this is what your dream is about. Every man’s fear that he will not be able to protect his family and that burden it places on him.

I wouldn’t blame him if he was. The way some of the press are painting him and AJ… blaming them for car accidents and physical attacks. Hey, accidents happened before BA set foot in India and they will happen after they’re gone; he could be fed up with being accused of being interlopers by the very people who are out to exploit them.
Regarding Shiloh, I wish these people would stop questioning why Shiloh isn’t as visible as Maddox and Zahara. While some has mentioned her age, the bounty on her head, and her potential vulnerability to the climate, and those are some valid points, but remember, there are those who see Shiloh’s existence as a daggar through X’s heart. If Shiloh was out there like Maddox and Zahara, people would then accuse BA of flaunting her out of pettiness. And then the haters would accuse them of exposing Shiloh to scrutiny for their selfish gain.
BA will never be right in some people’s eyes; they should proceed as they always had; make the decisions themselves and never allow ‘the committee’ to offer input.

He knew all he was ever gonna get was chin. No wonder poor baby was suicidal one year into it. All chin and no lip is depressing as hell. Poor Brad. Oh well, thank God he’s in labia heaven these days and makin’ up for lost time! LMAO!
I wish the paps would stop crowding Brad,Angelina and the kids. Then we would probably get great pics of this family like we saw in Paris.

You are right on the money with this. If B&A didn’t have biological child, the mantra of the Fanitoons would be “They aren’t really a couple, Brad just wanted kids”. The fact that Shiloh exists proves that Brad actually makes the beast with two backs with Angie, and they hate with a passion having to deal with that. This notion that Shiloh should be Jen’s baby is ludicrious. If Brad had stayed in that marriage, I guar-an-dam-Tee you that Jen would *still* be putting him off on starting a family, and he’s slowly be losing his effing mind from all her mental disease. Thank every God and Goddess in the Universe he got out and got far, far, away from her.

This is on the People and other websites from Madonna:
By MADONNA RITCHIE
Oct. 17, 2006 — My husband and I began the adoption process many months prior to our trip to Malawi. I did not wish to disclose my intentions to the world prior to the adoption happening as this is a private family matter. After learning that there were over one million orphans in Malawi, it was my wish to open up our home and help one child escape an extreme life of hardship, poverty and in many cases death, as well as expand our family.
Nevertheless, we have gone about the adoption procedure according to the law like anyone else who adopts a child. Reports to the contrary are totally inaccurate. The procedure includes an 18-month evaluation period after which time we hope to make this adoption permanent. This was not a decision or commitment that my family or I take lightly.
I am overwhelmed and inspired by my trip to Malawi and hope that it helps bring attention to how much more the world needs to do to help the children of Africa.
My heartfelt thanks for all the good wishes I have received and I hope the press will allow my family some room for us to experience the joy we feel to have David home.

OMG! That was a very articulate letter and she expressed her self wisely. Way to go Maddona!

Brad Pitt (”Babel”) is starting to pop up on more and more Oscar gurus’ lists in the best-actor lineup even though he’s declared himself in the supporting race. If Oscar voters behave just as independently, which they sometimes do, that could cause real category chaos. Putting him in lead might prove to be a wise move and give Brad the gold he might otherwise lose in supporting (I always wonder if that would’ve happened to Nicole Kidman with “The Hours.”) Or at least it might cause poor Peter O’Toole to pour a tall, stiff one considering Brad’s current media heat. (Well, make that an extra tall, stiff one in his case.) Or pushing Brad up to lead could cause him to lose the Oscar altogether, not just because his odds might be better in supporting, but because he could fall in between the cracks of both categories.
At the Oscars, there isn’t a qualification committee that firmly declares you to be in this category or that. Voters can choose to put you in either race after being guided by your wish declared in “For Your Consideration” ads that run throughout Oscarland. Even though Keisha Castle-Hughes campaigned in the supporting race for “Whale Rider,” voters pushed her up to lead. Maria Bello (”A History of Violence”) ended up getting shut out completely last year when her votes split following chaos at earlier kudos. Although the New York Film Critics Circle declared her to be the year’s best supporting actress, the Golden Globes put her in the lead drama lineup where she lost to Felicity Huffman (”Transamerica”).
Beyond the FYC ads they see, members of the academy’s acting branch get no category guidance when they vote for nominees. They do get a reminder list of possible contenders, but it’s broken down by films, which are listed alphabetically. Beneath each film title, all of its actors are listed alphabetically, too, regardless of the length of their role. So this means that voters will see Brad’s name high up on their reminder list because “Babel” starts with “B,” but, because his last name starts with “P,” he’ll be low down on the list of that film’s cast members.
If voters choose to push Brad up to lead, he’s so red hot right now as a superstar that he has a serious shot at beating frontrunner O’Toole. But does he have a better shot at winning supporting? He faces tough competition there, too. Possibilities: Ben Affleck (”Hollywoodland”), Alan Arkin or Steve Carell (”Little Miss Sunshine”), Adam Beach and Ryan Phillippe (”Flags of our Fathers”), Michael Caine (”The Prestige, “eChildren of Men”), Brian Cox (”Running with Scissors”), Jackie Earle Haley (”Little Children”), Anthony Hopkins and Laurence Fishburne (”Bobby”), Djimon Hounsou (”Blood Diamond”), Jack Nicholson and Leo DiCaprio (”The Departed”), Eddie Murphy (”Dreamgirls”), Ryan Phillippe (”Flags of Our Fathers”), Tobey Maguire (”The Good German”), Michael Pena (”World Trade Center”), Joe Pesci (”The Good Shepherd”), Tim Robbins (”Catch a Fire”), Martin Sheen (”The Departed”).
Brad was nommed for best supporting actor of 1995 for “Twelve Monkeys,” but lost to Kevin Spacey (”The Usual Suspects”).

269 | april - LMAO…I love it, so funny.
260 | guli - Thank you very much Guli. Sorry, I didn’t realize you brought it to Ell’s attention. Like you, I think Ell is wonderful at making videos and has done such a fantastic job in providing these videos for our viewing. I hope she makes more because she is so great at it. Thank you Guli and thanks to you Ell as well. Great job and quite an accomplishment.
Wow……I love this family. I always send them tons of love & positive energy. I hope they grow beautifully old together raising their children & living an abundant life in true happiness!
I think Jen is beautiful too. I watched a lot of interviews with Jen on youtube today & she is just gorgeous & I really like her.
But I just love this beautiful family.
These people (including Madonna), just make me want to adopt Sooooo bad….he he, maybe it is an ego thing with me too….lol. But geeeesh are these children beautiful! I’m in tears half the time. I wouldn’t mind one for my very own…
I would like lots of money though, so that I could give the child a good life! I tell ya!
Anyway I’m your typical lurker, crying to Mongo Bongo on you tube again….lol.
These kids are just beautiful!
I really thank these people so much for all the pictures I see of them. That’s definately worth $10,000,000 or $20,000,000 a movie. I think Angelina Jolie once said her income is ridiculous compared to what she does….. but not really compared to how much we/I want of them! Of course I agree with her in her Ann Curie interview this spring that we should build strong families. Mine, idealy will be multi-cultural as well.
Oh btw I do love God too….lol..
..but I’ll try to keep this short! Just kidding…..
272 | CCCC | Hey 4C’s it is OK but I was very confused when you were thanking someone else, no problem… Heck I really don’t care anymore sincse no one else does :-) Oh such is life…………….But I sure miss talking to you lady :lol:

ITA with what both of you said. I’m no Madonna fan either, but here’s my thing - why would ANYONE deny this child a better life? That makes no sense to me. I don’t care how much money Madonna has or how she was able to adopt this child. The fact of the matter is that she’s taking a child away from a life of poverty. The father had already given him up because he couldn’t afford to take care of him. What was left but for the child to live in an orphanage with God knows how many other children and all of them starved for attention and affection.
To my mind, you think countries like Malawi - which I’d bearly heard of before - would be happy to have a burden removed from the state or whoever runs the orphanage. They can barely provide for these children either, so why not open up the adoption process and let those children have a chance at a better life…even if they do loose their national identity. It just seems silly to condemn the children to misery when that doesn’t have to be the case.

I just found this on the X board read carefully,
Jen looked nice, her makeup and hair were nice, her dress and shoes her little white puppy.
And she’s so classy all the time poor dear, Brad and Angela made her life a living h*ll and yet she finds time to go on Oprah and do what, what was it she was doing there? Ummmm I know she was ther for a reason but I was too busy thinking about where she got her shoes.

Hell I wouldn’t mind raising 6 of these gorgeous children. I certainly want one or two of my own with my gorgeous husband as well.
And sure, I would prefer that children are raised by their natural parents……but until then….I’m gonna try to manifest the ability to adopt like this, AND of course provide an increadible amount of love!
To my kids & to the world!
Okay listen to me…..sorry to drive some of ya crazy…lol.
This woman doesn’t do anything that doesn’t have any benefit for her at the end. There were many African countries that didn’t have such strict rules regarding adoption and are begging that their kids be chosen. Read the article that a poster had pasted above. But Madonna must insist on Malawi.

+++++++++++++
True though this may be, it’s a bit ridiculous to ***** about her motives if it gives this child a better life. I’m no Madonna fan, but one less orphaned child living in poverty is one less orphaned child living in poverty. Not to put too fine a point on this, but celebs get away with stuff every day that you and I can’t. Why should adopting from Malawi be any different?
Estelle, you know they’re probably right. The man likely had to get good and baked before crawling up on her and actually trying to find any lips on her face to kiss…..shoooot, a man could slobber on that goob of hers all night and still never get any lip action. He knew all he was ever gonna get was chin. No wonder poor baby was suicidal one year into it. All chin and no lip is depressing as hell. Poor Brad. Oh well, thank God he’s in labia heaven these days and makin’ up for lost time! LMAO!

exactly. and what is national identity worth when your life expectancy is less than 30 years? i’ll bet if david were old enough to choose between living in assimilated privilege in england and living in poverty where his national identity is preserved, the boy would pick privilege because he will most likely live longer.
My heartfelt thanks for all the good wishes I have received and I hope the press will allow my family some room for us to experience the joy we feel to have David home.

And…Madonna’s been playing the tabloid game a lot longer than Angelina and even Brad. She’s got it down to a science, we don’t need to worry about that tough lady!
Zahara always looks sad. I’ve seen only one picture when she smiled or laughed, but she was younger. I worry about her, honestly. Maddox looks happy and very well-adjusted, but Zahara’s little spirit seems somehow broken. And it’s obvious she has a quiet/shy demeanor. Has anyone noticed that besides me? Be truthful, please.

I swear the woman ain’t right. I guess they really were like buddies that got married. No passion at all.
No wonder Brad was knocked off his azz completely once real passion entered his life. Somehow I think “sexy” is part of everything B&A do, from the most mundane to the most erotic. If they ever make a movie together again, even if its only him brushing his teeth and her putting a new roll of TP on the roller, it’ll be sexy. Hell, Brad probably even manages to put the Sexyback into changing a diaper full of baby dump. Incredible!

One comment about when Mad started calling Brad “daddy” and then I’ve got a mystery for you two to unravel…
If anyone would care to take a stroll through Lainey’s archives I believe she once commented that Mad was calling Brad “daddy” as early as when they picked up Z at the orphanage.
Okay…now here’s a homework assignment for the Prof…answer these 2 questions and I believe you will the answer to your question about when Brad told X he definitely wanted a divorce…and when decided he was going after Angie. It’s a chicken-and-egg puzzle:
1. When did Angie give the interview saying she had enough lovers, she didn’t need Brad? Bear in mind that not too long before this she was seen on Leno saying she’d been celibrate for at least a year.
2. When was X seen in the airport in London crying and without her wedding ring?

oh I like it, a mystery.. I know we can solve it.. Very interesting facts you gave us. Hmmm.. I will try to help.
All this ingorance is something else. Why don’t you see “Angelina & Brad go native.” And an article about how they have decided to travel as many Indians do, eat, as much as their stomachs allow, as Indians do and vacation as some Indians do in Goa? I’m sure what their eyes see are what I’ve seen in third world countries. In Haiti, the begging start from the minute you get off the plane. It’s so bad that you have guards there as you are coming out of the airport, wielding a big whip to whip all those who dare bother the people who are arriving. All you see along the open sewer dirt roads are children with outstretched hands. Sad I tell you. I’ve never been to India but I’ve heard similar stories. Nothing can prepare you for this and I’m sure as much as Angelina & Brad have seen much, can never get used to it. It’s not an easy trip as this film is not an easy subject to film.
Through it all, they perservere and enjoy the country as much as they can on their terms. Baby Shiloh is probably very suseptible immune wise. All babies are different. You can’t campare Mad and Z to Shiloh.
As far as Madonna, she and her people didn’t get the proper briefing regarding Malawi’s adoption rules, that’s why it was so messy. But the interviews show David’s father ok with the adoption but Madonna just about made it impossible for others to adopt from there. I don’t think she did it for publicity. I’m not that cynical. Did Lionel Ritchie adopt Nicole, who has living parents for publicity? And the media is blowing everything out of proportion. There isn’t a stampede of celebrities decending on the continent of Africa looking to adopt. Also someone on the news this evening mentioned that Madonna adopting overseas just reflects American society in general. Most Americans adopt from overseas. Adoption all of a sudden seems like a bad thing. WTF? There are people who spend years in foster care system and NEVER are adopted. Very Sad.
Regarding X let’s all address her as “Vince Vaughn’s girlfriend”. It’s appropriate isn’t it? I think it’s FABULOUS! LOL!!!
X probably was too busy being jealous of his beauty and disliking herself, to make room for sexiness in her psyche…..

OMG, so true! Her insecurities probably zapped every bit of fun and playfulness right out of their sex life. Somehow, I don’t picture her as the kind of girl who will make love with lights on, you know? She’s the kind who is all worried about what her bee-hind looks like while it’s up in the air or obsessing about her f**k-face being ugly (cuz, like it or not, we all have ugly f**k-face in the heat of the moment, but if you worry about what you look like, then what’s the point of f**king in the first place?). Women like her can’t loosen up and just have spontaneous fun.
Now Angie, on the other hand, is a spur of the moment, lights on, middle of the day, four in the morning, put-up-a-mirror-and-watch-me-baby kinda girl. Brad must be experiencing Nirvana daily…no, hourly! haha!!
I’m glad baby David was adopted by the Ritchie family. I hope he
will be loved deeply by all in his new family. I hope he will remain
in contact with his culture and his biological family.
As for those people who come and whine about “where’s shiloh?”
“How come Z is out and about and not Shiloh” etc etc. Please
ignore the **** stirrers. That’s all they are. I really think instead
of responding to them, we should respond to the newbie fans
instead. That’s all I’m going to say about the SS.
Love you Angie/Brad!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I think “Bebe” was being facetious. To me it reads like the person is satirizing the typical X fan post. “Jen looked great. Brad & Angie are mean horrible people. Jen had on a great outfit!”
However…I ain’t going over there to read the posts afterward to find out if she was joking!
288|sad eyes
Every child/person has a different personality. Some people are just quiet and introspective and shy, but are active observers and notice everything going on around them. There have been several pixs of Z smiling, just as there have been several pixs of Z alertly looking around and pointing at something that has caught her attention. One pix that I remember is when they were deplaning in Haiti in January, Z in Brad’s arms in the doorway of the plane, Z was looking and pointing at something. Love Z’s little blankie that Brad is holding and Z is clutching. Don’t compare this child to Mad, he has a very different personality, he is very outgoing and an extrovert. He likes to be the center of attention (not so much as he gets older as he seems to be annoyed with paps now). Z does not appear unhappy to me, she’s just an “old soul” as my grandmother would say. I will say that she appears to be very attached to Brad, and he to her, and that’s the way it is with dads and daughters. Shiloh will probably be much the same with Brad. Mad also appears to be close to his dad. Angelina choose extremely well when she recognized how special a person Brad is. Many men would have run for the hills rather than become a truly loving dad to Mad and Z. Instead of a runner, Brad Pitt seems to have been born to be a father.
I really can’t believe how much time is spent on this thread discussing Jennifer Aniston, why??? I am not a fan of hers personally, it has nothing to do with Brad & Angelina though I just don’t get why go into flame wars over invoking her name on a thread that has NOTHING to do with her. Why waste your time?
I suspect that Brad Pitt drank a lot and even hit her sorta.

The other thing that I think people are forgetting is the fact that a 21-month old and a 5 year-old are going to get bored! HELLO, people! Shiloh can lay on her tummy all day blowing spit bubbles and be just as happy as can be. Mad and Z are used to playing outside and being with Mommy all or Daddy all day. They’re need attention from their parents. If people didn’t see them out with B/A then they’d be b!tching about keeping the kids cooped up all the time. Sheesh…it’s a no win situation for B/A. Keep the kids indoors and bored. Or take them outside and get mobbed by people looking to make a buck off a picture of your kids. It’s got to be every parents nightmare…a bounty on your child’s head and there are more probably 100X more bounty hunters than there are Brad, Angie and their staff!

That was a great answer. I think Zahara is an old soul also. I love her eyes. They are so expressive. I think people see what they want to see in pictures that are just minutes if not seconds of these people’s lives. Children are naturally curious and Zahara and Maddox appear to be absoring their environment in these pictures. I have never seen a family so over-analyzed as the Jolie-Pitt. No one worries or wonder where is Suri. No one complains when they do not see Suri with Tom’s other kids. I just wish people would give the family some slack. Thank goodness B and A just continue to live their lives and ignore the tabs and naysayers.
my own conclusion….brad was just doesn’t want jen to be the mother of his children.end of story.

Wise decision. I’ve been saying for a while now that if Brad was doing the wild thing with X at all in the last 1 year of that marriage he was using every kind of contraceptive a MAN can get his hands on. If X asked about why he was using condoms all he had to say was he didn’t know who X had been sleeping with other than Marky Mark’s sister! I think it’s one of the reasons he would get upset when she was giving all those “we’re working on having a baby” interviews…because they weren’t having sex so they definitely weren’t working on having a kid! That’s why he had poor Angie howling like a wounded lion in the jungles of Kenya!
ROTFL. A funny thought just occurred to me - IF, as we’ve speculated, AJ made up those 2 lovers and was truthful with Leno about being celibate for a long time…and Brad wasn’t having sex with X…and the first time they had sex was in Kenya…YOWSA!!!! No wonder they were making all that noise!

I can believe people are saying that Z is unhappy. I need if you were one year would you be happy seeing a crowd of people running up to you, screaming with an object in ur face? Ummm i think not…the pictures we do see of her is these paps pics and shes scrared, naturally. but there are pictures when she doesnt see the paps that she looks happy and like a regular little girl. No one can say shes unhappy cuz from i can see, she is not.
she has two loving parents and great siblings…

AND, having to simulate sex with each other on the set of MAMS?

The Assistant comes up and covers him with a robe at the end of scene and says, “Ok, you can go now,” and he says, “No, um…I’m fine, I think I’ll just lay here a little longer…..”

By the way I have a feeling that Billy Bob does not hold a candle to Brad’s Passion.
You really made me laugh you should know that.
Man some of you are deranged! How in the world do you think making up a whole scenario of what Brad said to Angelina while divorceing Jennifer is normal?
Anyhoo, for the comments about families riding in rickshaws all the time…that may very well be true. But, not all rickshaws carry these two. We all saw what happened in the first ride, so why even take a chance with your kids like that? Your children should always come first!!
Hey PT, I got my very own hater! Check it out #318! I have arrived on JJ, honey. ;) hee hee! Can’t wait to tell Cliniqua!
Yet another picture of Angie wearing boring black, she looks
tired and drained. But of course I am sure the black color
cheers up up!

LMAO! Okay, if that’s all the meat you can find on this
particular bone then I won’t mad at you, you can naw on it.
Haha!
Hello Ladies! Good Evening!
Jen fans,
Jennifer is now with Vince. Why don’t you guys go and make up some fanfics on their imaginary love. This is a blog and as such people speculate on a variety of things. Some of it is not in Jen’s favor. Deal with it and stop the false concern about the children.
Grub is correct on #2…now find out the answer to #1 and I believe you’ll know when Brad told the X he wanted off her Pity Party Train…and he wasn’t just looking to take “a break”!

Ok, I’ll do the leg work myself, only right now I am multitasking….working on a report and hopping on and off of here….maybe around 2am this morning when I get this beeyotch report finished.
“Zahara always looks sad. I’ve seen only one picture when she smiled or laughed, but she was younger. I worry about her, honestly. Maddox looks happy and very well-adjusted, but Zahara’s little spirit seems somehow broken. And it’s obvious she has a quiet/shy demeanor. Has anyone noticed that besides me? Be truthful, please.”
Sad Eyes;
No, Zahara does not look sad all the time. Zahara looks scared and she has plenty reason to be scared. There are maniacs she does not know running around with cameras. tripping over themselves to get pictures. These maniacs are strangers to her. Go online and look up the characteristics of a 21 month old toddler. You will find that in this stage they cling to their parents and do not take kindly to strangers. I am not surprised she is not crying and clinging tightly to her parents because most toddlers her age would. You remind me of Jen. She always looked at Zahara and made statements about Zahara. What is clear to me is that both Zahara and Maddox have the same perplexed look on their face and there you have it. The Truth
Shhhh, PT, it called “delegating”, LOL!

#321 So far, it’s pretty good Alexanderina. Julian was on The View, him and Rosie are so cute! He brought the rug where they had their…sex scene on lol Then he laid on top of her and then he asked Joy if she wanted a turn and she said yes! I never thought that I would be jealous of any of the women on The View lol
319 - That was then, this is now.
318 | Realitycheck
Speaking of people needing a “reality check”…go get one yourself. Angie had that baby 4 1/2 MONTHS AGO. Prof Dragonfly is a medical professional so I’m sure she’ll be happy to explain the waiting period for having sex after having a baby ain’t 4 1/2 months…you moron.
317 | Alexanderina
I agree, if they move him to the BA his competition will be harder he will have to face Peter O’toole, Forest Whitaker and probably Ben Affleck (since he has alredy won 2 prices for best actor for his portray of George Reeve) and I think WB it’s going to push Leo in the BA run too. Plus another problem will be his screentime and the fact he is part of an ensemble cast.

***************************
LOL! Yeah, julia, girl didn’t you know that becoming a parent automatically means you only have sex once a month, and then, only on your back with the lights off and your eyes closed really tight while clutching the sheet up under your chin so he doesn’t see your nekkidness? For real. It’s true.
Oh, and you never, ever, under any circumstances have an ******. What are you, crazy? For Heaven sake, you’re a mother for crying out loud.
;)!
331 | Amaya | - I can’t wait to watch it tonight, the last episode was great, I like Julian, I think he is hot
The Assistant comes up and covers him with a robe at the end of scene and says, “Ok, you can go now,” and he says, “No, um…I’m fine, I think I’ll just lay here a little longer…..”

ROTFL. Poor baby. Angie at least could get up and leave the room and be horny in private!

lol. Right!
No thanks.
by the way your post
319 | dragonfly
Hillarious, And In my humble opinion Very Very Likely!!
Hey, we should start another firecrotch episode! Or it least, you
ladies should start it, I’ll just observe. That should get
Realitycheck and Jen’s panties uproar!
Alexanderina,
Julian is on my DILF list. lol Did you read his interview in The Advocate? He seems flirty, confident and humble, that just makes him sexier to me!
I think it’s just old habit that people keep saying Jen has nice hair…I absolutely disagree…it’s decent..normal. She doesn’t have lushes waves of hair…I would say Portia di Rossi had beautiful hair when she was on Ally McBeal.
No wonder Brad was knocked off his azz completely once real passion entered his life. Somehow I think “sexy” is part of everything B&A do, from the most mundane to the most erotic. If they ever make a movie together again, even if its only him brushing his teeth and her putting a new roll of TP on the roller, it’ll be sexy. Hell, Brad probably even manages to put the Sexyback into changing a diaper full of baby dump. Incredible!
Hey, I’d pay to see it.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
You know what you do to me when you refer to another possible movie with Angie and Brad, right?
You bring me back to my fantasy of seeing those play “Lady Chatterley’s Lover “. But to give the full meaning of Lawrence’s book, there have to be the hot sex scenes, as in the book….Would they do it? It would be so scandalous it’d be a blockbuster….if done tastefully it can show a lot of passion without explicit full-frontals- I wonder if that’s the reason no one picks it up to make it….
I’d even settle for Clive Owen ( I saw Close my Eyes…)and -I can’t think of any British actress who can combine an aristocratic bearing and manners, with fiery passion, independence, and lovability as Angie can. If you can think of one let me know!
BTW…..The full text of the book is here for free:

#323. How do you know anything about Billy Bob’s passion? Have you slept with him? I thought your opinion was dumb. You should know that. Wife and mother…… my foot!

You know, that’s the sweetest thing anyone has ever said to
me. I think I’m gonna frame it, both times.
Star magazine is back with more bullshit this week. They claim that Angie’s mom has cancer and the concern is that it is not responding to treatment may have only months to live.
Don’t worry, I’m scooting. Running really. There’s no good sense on this board–even by supposed married w/children. Must be bad teenage mothers.
Adieu!

Ok, Me Too, I tied her up in the backyard, but you never know, she may get loose again. “Friends” reruns usually placate her temporarily.
357 | bluemoon | - Hey bluemoon, I saw that on the National Allerger’s website, Star Magazine is a JOKE, and anything that comes from piece of crap tab are bullshit
For some odd reason, I left MSNBC on tonight - probably because I was out all day and half the evening. Anyway, Joe Scarborough came on after Keith and I didn’t change the channel. Near the end of his show he had some gossip people on - wasn’t really paying attention. Then he mentions that BRAD is playing the mandolin for Angie in the evenings to help her connect with Marianne. JS was whining that he wasn’t FIGHT CLUB Brad anymore - I was going AWWWWWW isn’t that romantic! LOL

What, and they didn’t say that Angie’s an unfeeling, uncaring spawn because she left the country? I’m downright disapppointed in them if they didn’t.
360 | Me too | - :lol: :lol:
I’ll bet you a trillion dollars Brad and Angelina are not swinging from chandeliers, having wild, hot sex every night. Pleeeaaaase! Angelina already experienced that lifestyle with Billy Bob. Besides, she just had a baby, you nutso. These two are parents, first and foremost. Get your mind out of the nasty gutter!
318 | Realitycheck
~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
It seems you’re speaking from your OWN experience-swinging from chandeliers and trying untried positions is not what really hot sex is about…that’s what People do in their young years when sex is mostly physical only, kind of superficial…..
Hot sex comes from seeing the other person as your EVERYTHING, worthy to be given your ALL. It’s a feeling that makes hearts beat fast and misty eyes that show your soul. I hope you find it someday…..

If this turns out to even be half true, I think it is the most romantic thing, ever. What’s he mean he’s not Fight Club Brad anymore? He’s all that and then some, baby!
All right, I don’t care if Emmy’s months away but Rosie should definitely win for her performance in tonight’s episode! She was amazing!
I’m watching TDS and Jon briefly mentioned Brad and Angie but the focus was Nicole Kidman in Kosovo and Madonna’s adoption.
I was at the store today, and one of the tabs had on the cover: Jen “I still love Brad”. Just few weeks ago they had Brad saying “I still love Jen”. I think VV should sue both tabs. :lol:
363 | Original Curious | - Hi OC, I think that is sweet and romantic if it true :)

Jared please delete all of her posts. Like those at the Jen threads we dont deserve to have to look at nasty posts from the likes of this troll.

They deserve to get sued. I wish they could leave their parents alone, they are not the movie stars, it get me really mad when they mess with their family.
BEAUTIFUL FAMILY, LOVE THEM SO MUCH!!!
i love to see the affection between brad and zahara…. such a
heartmelting view everytime i see them together…. love this
