Brad & Angelina’s Boat Ride in Mumbai

Brad & Angelina’s Boat Ride in Mumbai

Family fun time! Brad Pitt, carrying daughter Zahara, almost 2, and Angelina Jolie, holding 5-year-old son Maddox’s hand, enjoyed a boat ride together and then walked along the Gateway of India earlier this morning in Mumbai. I love how there are dozens of people gawking from the Gateway! If I loved in India, I’d probably be doing the same thing. Ha!

Nice headband/handkerchief, Bradley

I am so glad that they are speaking clearly about the incident at the school. And glad that they are still willing to go out and not develop a bunker mentality for the kids.

Guess this answers the question of whether they are going to the TomKat nuptials!

Angie and Brad look so GORGEOUS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

i agree. Brad is one hot Papi. it looks as if z is having a great time looking out to the ocean

Glad to see them enjoying the sight. With the chaos surrounding them happy to hear that they will leave soon.

Maddox looks like an Harajuku girl with this haircut …

Nice breasts, Angie!! YUMMY!! YUMMY!!

It looks like the case against the Bodyguards is going nowhere. It is in “cold storage”.

Brad Pitt denies star couple’s bodyguards ‘racist’(AFP)

18 November 2006
NEW DELHI - Hollywood star Brad Pitt denied on Saturday that any of the bodyguards working for him and his partner, fellow actor Angelina Jolie, were racist.

Pitt’s statement came after three of their bodyguards were arrested following a scuffle at an Islamic school in the financial capital of Mumbai, where Jolie was shooting the film ‘A Mighty Heart.’

‘This is an awful, awful misunderstanding. We would never employ anyone who is racist, or who would hurt or push a child,’ Pitt told India’s NDTV television in a damage-limitation interview.

Parents at the school had accused the bodyguards of shouting, ‘You bloody Indians, you bloody Muslims,’ when they came to collect their children after classes.

They also accused the bodyguards of pushing around parents and children and making a gesture miming slitting a throat.

‘This is not what Angelina and I wanted,’ Pitt said.

‘Angelina and I have a multi-racial family, we want them to respect and understand different religions.’

Pitt, who is producing the film in which Jolie is starring about US journalist Daniel Pearl’s abduction and murder by Islamic militants in Pakistan in 2002, had apologised Friday to Mumbai police over the incident.

The three bodyguards have been released on bail each of 25,000 rupees (555 dollars) after being held on accusations of making threats and an ‘insult to religion.’

‘The case appears to be in cold storage now’ unless police decide to pursue the case, Mahesh Jethmalani, a lawyer who represented the bodyguards, told AFP.

The bodyguards — Thomas MacAdam, Robert Dunn and Michael Bret who are all British nationals — were arrested early Friday at a five-star hotel in Mumbai.

In October, one of the couple’s bodyguards was caught on camera by an Indian television crew grabbing a British photographer by the throat and warning him to stay away.

Jolie has also denied that her bodyguards had made racist comments.

‘Let me say this: I would never work with anyone who was derogatory towards another man’s race. My family is of mixed race,’ she said in a statement.

‘It is not surprising that the press involved failed to mention their share of the responsibility in the chaos,’ Jolie added.

The film’s production house said it had permission to film at the premises, but a battery of press photographers rushed in when the school gates were opened, ‘creating confusion.’

In the interview with NDTV, Pitt dismissed rumours that the couple who have three children — two adopted — planned to adopt an Indian baby now.

The rumours surfaced after the pair visited an orphanage in the western city of Pune and distributed toys.

However, Pitt said they might in the future.

‘We are not planning to adopt from India at this point but it’s certainly something we would consider in the future,’ he said.

Those pics are cute with BAMZ but look at the people surrounding them in other pics, UGH. The people can’t name one film that either Brad or Angelina made and here they are gawking.

They are leaving and that’s what matters. It was a tough assignment but they got through it. AJ has been through much worse as a UNHCR Ambassador. Her serenity is amazing.

Thanks Jared & Audrey @ 11/18/2006 at 11:59 am

It look like Angie got blond highlights too! What anyone think when she was getting her hair “did” lol, thats when Madd got his hooked up.

Thanks Jared and Audrey. Love the pics. Hello BAMZS fans, how are you all.

Thanks for the article & photos Jared & Audrey. You are two are awesome. Love the BAMZS!

Angie and Brad, you have worked hard, you deserve the rest and fun. You will overcome.

I am fine thank you guli. I am sure the others are now feeling a bit better eversince this hullaballo started. Thanks JJ

Good day BAMZSers:

This is so sweet. They all look great. I still want them to leave and come home for the holidays. I know that their families really miss them and more importantly the kiddies – grandparents always love the little ones.

By the way, but Angie has a nice rack. She very toned and ummm uplifting….overall A+ boobies. LOL

Wonderful people!
Wonderful family!
Wonderful pictures!

Thanks Jared

Wow, what a great morning. Lovely family. My goodness, the crowds. I can’t imagine having 100’s of people gawking at me wherever I go. This must be hard for them but they maintain grace under pressure, always.

And Brad looks hot hot hot with the bandanna. You’re a hottie Braddy!

Where’s Shilie? (my nickname forShiloh so spread the word).

A blogger friend Sabrosa told me that Hottie in Spanish is Papachongo. New nickname for Brad: Papachongo Pitt.

I’ve come to the notion that it would not mattered if he and The Past had babies. Brad have been so much freer and productive and on adventure non stop since he been with Angie. He woudl never have life like he got it with no one else baby or no baby. He would not be nothing but David Arquetes tuesdy nite scrabble partner 3 doors down.

Sheryll, so what? They are a happy family!

Thank God they are having some fun after three days of furstration.They cleared up their positions to the press as they had to and now it time for them to relax a bit.I just love it that they will continue to live their lives no matter what.They won’t let anything to avoid them from doing their thing.They are a team supporting each other in every way.It’s obvious that they are not holding any grages against India.After all it was the Indian press that got out of hand.The country is beautiful place to visit and they know it.God bless their family always!

I just love Brad’s headband!! LOL! He is looking funny and sexy at the same time.
Angie looks realy good in these pictures too.I always loved her hair lighter.It suits her fine! Madd’s new hair cut is not very different from his usual mohan.I like this one better though.This kid will be a hottie! ;)
And what can I say about princess Zee.She won’t let anyone take her daddy from her.She RULES! LOL!

No lifejackets or other personal flotation devices on those kids. Shameful and neglectful!!

——————————————

Hey Vancouver, BC Lizzie also thinks you’re shameful and neglectful for not putting life jackets on your kids. See in September I went to Vancouver, BEAUTIFUL city by the way. My friend and I took the little ferry over to an island that had a giant farmer’s market and art galleries. Not once did I see any children on the ferry wearing life jackets. Now some were tourists but many were locals.

Now when I was in Scotland in search of the Loch Ness Monster, I didn’t see any of the kids on the boats wearing life vests. I guess the Scots and Canadians (at least the ones from Vancouver) have something in common with with Brad & Angie.

Alexanderina @ 11/18/2006 at 12:42 pm

I’m so happy to see them together , trying to find some piece after everything that happened in the past two days. Really, IS THERE ANYTHING MORE PERFECT IN THIS WORLD THAN SEEING THIS BEAUTIFUL FAMILY TRYING TO RELAX AND SPEND SOME QUALITY TIME WITH THEIR KIDS? Z and Mad are adorable!

Howdy hoo Buckoroos (I have no idea what that means but it isn’t Good Morning, so I guess I’m safe)

I had to run out for a bit….eh…not run out. I mean I didn’t go anywhere….coz, you know I don’t have places to go, seeing as this is my life and all…..anyway, I come back (from nowhere) to find the resident Psycho is on the loose. Why respond to Ritzygal? We know what she is, whatever she writes is a reflection who she is. There’s no need to defend the JPs with this one because all her posts scream PSYCHO. Honestly if she says Zee looks a mess, it has nothing to do with that beautiful child, it only exposes the type of person RG is. So let her keep exposing how just how sick ways to the world.

Now those are some very good pictures. They all look so serene….the calm after the storm, no?

Now wait for it…..the screams of PR, Publicity seekers and the rest of the nonsensical rants….

Full Transcript Of Barkha Dutt’s Interview With Brad Pitt

Barkha: The film Mighty Heart brought two of the Hollywod’s biggest names, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, to India. Everybody was very excited, not surprisingly the paparazzi did not leave them alone for a moment. Was that the problem? Why the film has been overshadowed by a headline of unsavoury kind? The latest controversy being the arrest of three of the bodyguards on the crew and location…allegations of parents in a dominant Muslim school saying that the bodyguards have made a racial slur.

We are, for the first time, in conversation with the producer of the film and one of Hollywood’s biggest names, Brad Pitt, along with one of India’s best known actors Irfan Khan who plays a lead role in the film. This is Brad’s first interview of any kind since he has been in India avoiding all those media hounds and we are hoping it will go beyond this incidence to talk about your entire experience here in India.

Brad: Thank you for taking your time out.

Barkha: Thank you for making time. I can imagine what kind of days it has been for you. Did you ever imagine when you were packing your bags to India that one of your stops would include a visit to the police commissioner’s office?

Brad: No. I did not foresee that. I have to say because it is just completely antithetical of what the film is about. So the turn of events is a bit baffling to us. But you know we are here to answer any allegations and certainly set the record straight because these are not our intentions, nor the intention of the people involved.

Barkha: Let me ask you very directly. The perception is that your cast and crew were shooting here and parents had come to pick up their children. It was peak time when the children were trying to get out and they were also excited to see you, Angelina and other stars. They were probably hemming in trying to get a glimpse. The bodyguards at that time, to try and keep the crowd away, got a little rough and the amount of things they said…”You bloody Indians…you bloody Muslims.”

Brad: Absolutely not true. And you know I have to say that we are horrified by these allegations and you must understand our intention for the story is to focus on a similarity of cultures. It is a story of a journalist who believed in truth and making the world a better place by enlightening each other on a point of view and believe in dialogues, and he was a great lover of culture and the world itself. In the story itself, with the abduction, what occurred was to bring together people from different cultures and religions…you have Muslims, Hindus, agnostics, Buddhists, Christians, all people working together to find this man who happened to be a Jewish, but more importantly a believer in a world, who considered himself a citizen of the world and this is a beautiful story for us.

Barkha: Absolutely

Brad: This is the purpose of telling a story. So having these allegations goes against the purpose of the movie and it is disappointing for us and I would like to now answer that.

Barkha: I’ll get into the film in course of the conversation but you know how bodyguards are. They have a tough time and they get rough sometimes. It is also a different culture, it is also a language they speak. When you say that they did not say these things, is it from the knowledge or faith or instinct or are you willing to vouch that they did not say these things?

Brad: All of that. All that across the board I tell you with all my heart. I understand that for Angelina and me to stand up and tell this story is this idea of embracing our cultures. This idea of acceptance, the idea of openness and dialogue with each other. This idea of tolerance which we believe in with all our heart and if you look at our history what we have been involved with…we will never work with anyone who thinks otherwise. Absolutely not. and this is a horrible misunderstanding, but it is just that misunderstanding and we hope to establish that truth so the film and the message of the film is not tainted because the history is worth telling today.

Barkha: Irfan, if I bring you in on one point. Because sometimes people mean something and another thing happens. It is the perils of coming into a country where you do not necessarily speak the language of the people. It happens in rural urban clashes within India itself. There are people who speak English…Not just as somebody who is a member of this cast and crew, but as a Muslim it is such a sensitive subject. Right now you know the very suggestion that somebody may have said what Brad say didn’t happen…”You bloody Muslim”. It automatically brings India together and you start looking at the crew who came in as the outsider. What did you feel about this when you read about this, heard about this, saw the visuals on TV of parents saying this is what happened.

Irfan: You know I saw a channel. They were continuously running a story of what happened here. It was a completely biased approach that they had because they were saying Brad “Pint”, Anjelina Jolie’s boyfriend was there and he did not come out, Irfan Khan was there in the shooting and he didn’t say anything to the parents. Now, I say he was not there. He was in Varanasi and I am sure about it. We were shooting inside and when we came out of the hotel everyone was there, the press was there and they wanted to cover it. It is their job…OK but they were following us and when we went inside the school the timing was such that we were entering and kids were coming out.

As we got in we started shooting. We were supposed to be doing scenes so we were busy doing the shoot and suddenly we started hearing some noises. We thought the press was trying to cover it. Then it took another shape and I was continuously laughing, saying it was nothing.

Barkha: You must have seen this in India so many times?

Irfan: Yes. So many times and today when I saw them so concerned I said it is nothing.

Barkha: And it would have been nothing, had it not been for that allegation?

Irfan: I can vouch that Brad would not keep such racial people with him. Whatever I have understood about him, about the intention of the film and why they are making the film, this is an actor I know what is all about.

Brad: You know we have an interracial family. It is very important to us that our kids grow up understanding their own respective cultures, their own religions, of the country they are from. This is our intention.

Barkha: You have three children from completely different parts of the world.

Brad: Yes. Ethiopia, Cambodia, and our other daughter was born in Namibia. That is understood in all the children as well as us because we believe so much in the importance of where they come from and the idea that we can all get along and we can live and let live.

Barkha: But Brad, not to be cynic but the allegation is not that Brad Pitt and Irfan Khan came out into the crowd and made racial remarks. The allegation is that in the heat of the moment your security guards may have lost their temper and said something that was inappropriate.

Brad: Again I am saying that we would never ever hire these people. We will never work with them because it goes against everything we believe in. Also, these men are fathers, they all have kids themselves. They were hoping to get back home from tomorrow. But they will never hurt a child or yell at a child. They will never push the child.

Barkha: Did you get the chance to speak with them and what is their version?

Brad: Absolutely, I know their integrity. As Irfan said when they drove up to the school they were shooting a scene. This brings us to the subject of the role of media and its capability. There are very aggressive facts on media and I am certainly not entitled to believe it. But this is a particular fact that they have been aggressive and have not given us a moment of peace.

Also, the other day when we were taking a walk with our kids, we were surrounded by the local guys. I told them that we are trying to take our kids for a walk and I understand you guys want to take pictures but keep a distance and not scare the kids. But they completely ignored and just surrounded us. The kids did not know how to take it, so we called up the office and came back.. From my investigation they were blocking the gates as the kids were trying to come out of the school. The parents had come to pick up their kids. Now this is not mentioned in the media at all and also this particular fact that paparazzi or tabloid media (or how we want to label them) also rushed to the gate of the school, carrying itself to a fracas.

Barkha: So the school also said that the cast and crew came an hour later than they were meant to and therefore hit the peak time.

Brad: I don’t understand that. I had not heard that but I want to say it just brings up an interesting debate on when the media actually creates the news and staying there just observing and recording news. I think it is a debate that needs to be had because they certainly say this.

Barkha: Well we have heard that debate many times in our country. Just one last question on this incident, do you believe that people who work with you can ever say this?

Brad: I tell you with all my honour…absolutely not.

Barkha: So do you think it is all a misunderstanding? You think the people who are making the allegations are lying?

Brad: Knowing all intentions of the story I am absolutely baffled by all this. I do not know it is the subject matter of this film itself that lead to people questioning, may be we should have explained our intentions about the story when we came here.

Barkha: May be you hid from the press too much.

Brad: Yeah…you know our idea is to come, do our work, have an experience at the end, have a press conference and talk about it. My job was producing the film, deal with my kids, and as I said we probably should have come out of the gate and explained our purpose here.

Barkha: Do you feel regret even though you feel your bodyguards did not say anything?

Brad: Let me tell you what I regret. I regret that the students’ day at the school was disrupted and I also believe the media who were present should join me in that regret because they were also the part of the problem…and well I regret that.

You know say posted this on the other thread.

Full Interview

Barkha: The film Mighty Heart brought two of the Hollywod’s biggest names, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, to India. Everybody was very excited, not surprisingly the paparazzi did not leave them alone for a moment. Was that the problem? Why the film has been overshadowed by a headline of unsavoury kind? The latest controversy being the arrest of three of the bodyguards on the crew and location…allegations of parents in a dominant Muslim school saying that the bodyguards have made a racial slur.

We are, for the first time, in conversation with the producer of the film and one of Hollywood’s biggest names, Brad Pitt, along with one of India’s best known actors Irfan Khan who plays a lead role in the film. This is Brad’s first interview of any kind since he has been in India avoiding all those media hounds and we are hoping it will go beyond this incidence to talk about your entire experience here in India.

Brad: Thank you for taking your time out.

Barkha: Thank you for making time. I can imagine what kind of days it has been for you. Did you ever imagine when you were packing your bags to India that one of your stops would include a visit to the police commissioner’s office?

Brad: No. I did not foresee that. I have to say because it is just completely antithetical of what the film is about. So the turn of events is a bit baffling to us. But you know we are here to answer any allegations and certainly set the record straight because these are not our intentions, nor the intention of the people involved.

Barkha: Let me ask you very directly. The perception is that your cast and crew were shooting here and parents had come to pick up their children. It was peak time when the children were trying to get out and they were also excited to see you, Angelina and other stars. They were probably hemming in trying to get a glimpse. The bodyguards at that time, to try and keep the crowd away, got a little rough and the amount of things they said…”You bloody Indians…you bloody Muslims.”

Brad: Absolutely not true. And you know I have to say that we are horrified by these allegations and you must understand our intention for the story is to focus on a similarity of cultures. It is a story of a journalist who believed in truth and making the world a better place by enlightening each other on a point of view and believe in dialogues, and he was a great lover of culture and the world itself. In the story itself, with the abduction, what occurred was to bring together people from different cultures and religions…you have Muslims, Hindus, agnostics, Buddhists, Christians, all people working together to find this man who happened to be a Jewish, but more importantly a believer in a world, who considered himself a citizen of the world and this is a beautiful story for us.

Barkha: Absolutely

Brad: This is the purpose of telling a story. So having these allegations goes against the purpose of the movie and it is disappointing for us and I would like to now answer that.

Barkha: I’ll get into the film in course of the conversation but you know how bodyguards are. They have a tough time and they get rough sometimes. It is also a different culture, it is also a language they speak. When you say that they did not say these things, is it from the knowledge or faith or instinct or are you willing to vouch that they did not say these things?

Brad: All of that. All that across the board I tell you with all my heart. I understand that for Angelina and me to stand up and tell this story is this idea of embracing our cultures. This idea of acceptance, the idea of openness and dialogue with each other. This idea of tolerance which we believe in with all our heart and if you look at our history what we have been involved with…we will never work with anyone who thinks otherwise. Absolutely not. and this is a horrible misunderstanding, but it is just that misunderstanding and we hope to establish that truth so the film and the message of the film is not tainted because the history is worth telling today.

Barkha: Irfan, if I bring you in on one point. Because sometimes people mean something and another thing happens. It is the perils of coming into a country where you do not necessarily speak the language of the people. It happens in rural urban clashes within India itself. There are people who speak English…Not just as somebody who is a member of this cast and crew, but as a Muslim it is such a sensitive subject. Right now you know the very suggestion that somebody may have said what Brad say didn’t happen…”You bloody Muslim”. It automatically brings India together and you start looking at the crew who came in as the outsider. What did you feel about this when you read about this, heard about this, saw the visuals on TV of parents saying this is what happened.

Irfan: You know I saw a channel. They were continuously running a story of what happened here. It was a completely biased approach that they had because they were saying Brad “Pint”, Anjelina Jolie’s boyfriend was there and he did not come out, Irfan Khan was there in the shooting and he didn’t say anything to the parents. Now, I say he was not there. He was in Varanasi and I am sure about it. We were shooting inside and when we came out of the hotel everyone was there, the press was there and they wanted to cover it.

“Those pics are cute with BAMZ but look at the people surrounding them in other pics, UGH. The people can’t name one film that either Brad or Angelina made and here they are gawking.”
How do you know they can’t name one film? Speaking from experience having been in Uganda, a country less credited with sophistication than most third world countries, when M&MSmith was showing there, posters of AJ and BP were everywhere. Not having been to India you may be correct, but please don’t make a speculation unless you can substantiate it…you are making an unfair judgement of the people of that country. Plus we’re gawking just from afar.

See in September I went to Vancouver, BEAUTIFUL city by the way. My friend and I took the little ferry over to an island that had a giant farmer’s market and art galleries. Not once did I see any children on the ferry wearing life jackets.

Please tell me thats not the best you can come up with. You must be joking - I guess if they bungie jumped off a bridge with the kids you would say thats ok too! Those (and all children) need to wear life jackets on a boat. I guess Angie hasnt changed her way of thinking too much after all. Still living life on the edge with her children now. Cant wait to hear how well the kids do when they move int Angies home that has land mines in the ground (of course theyre trying to get rid of all the mines but mistakes happen) WOW SHES SO “HIP AND EDGY”. Cant wait to hear what she does next. And we thought Micky was the real problem - its a lot more clear whats most important to our EARTH MOTHER - GOTTA LIVE ON THE EDGE!!

Thanks Jared and Audrey for the lovely picx.
Love this family, a truly beautiful family, always doing things together. Brad in a bandana! Well, he’s got my vote anyday, all time SMA. Angie, with no make-up, just her gorgeous self. And Zee in her pretty white dress, cluthing Daddy Brad, and the ever so cool Madd.

Glad to see them enjoying the sights, but will be even more overjoyed when they can leave.

despite all the chaos and the constant hounding, i think the jolie-pitts enjoyed their stay in india. they proably won’t try to work there again, but i doubt they’ll be bitter and bad-mouth the country.

Sassy, you’ve been on the other thread and you’ve also come here. Apparently you don’t like Angie and we get it, stop feigning concern for her kids. Fans love them and trust the decisions they made on their kids. Do what you want with your own kids and leave the JPs alone. Besides where were you when they adopted them. They can have their own kids, but they also choose to adopt and help others. Good job Brad and Angie, good job!

Hello bloody(!)all !!j@red, you are fast on getting the pics!Congrats , man, this is how PROFESSIONALS should be!!
Maniston, mised your comments after work..we had a looong ball here.
BTW..wouldn’t you all LOVE to be in that boat?The LOOOVE BOAT!
I don’t know why im so obsessed with them but I am-shame on me…hehe.
Brad -is wearing a bandana due to headache created by those pesky paps.And he is getting ready to put down-toghther with Mickey!-some more shitzy rabblerousers that haunt all B&Athreads on JJ…
Angelina-looks fab with highlights…I said it again and again, this woman can wear rags and wigs and she still looks gorgeous.

We seen him in action when he grab that pap yet why no arrest then? Because the dude wasnt Indian? Why he arrested only on word from who the hell knows that he touched let alone called somebody out of there name. I just thought about this today and its very strange to me how one situation you would think cause the cuffs to come out but dont, and the other what got little to back up the so called victim”we have yet to see or heard from” story, but got Mick and the others in the pokey faster than a blink takes. weird.

There is a pic in Life and Style I know lousy tab but anyway the one where brad is holding Shi and he has her little teddy bear in his back pocket ,it looks like.

cutest little teddy bear! i can just imagine little shiloh hugging on it, it must be a favorite for Brad to have been carrying like that.

shiloh is in the bandana

_______________________

WOW TP you got around the naughty police!!!!

Just insults??? My questions were real. And you really dont have anything but insults?? You really think those arent valid questions?? Guess you dont know them as well as you claim to. It doesnt seem strange that she would even put her kids in situation that they could get their asses blown up at their own home?? You people really are the epitome of BLIND FAITH. She has only been a MOM for a short time and some of the decisions she makes regarding her kids (and some picture of her holding her kids head when she carries them doesnt rate) are just not of the experienced mother. Her kids also need to live in a home not hotels - and not exposed to all the different disease from some of the places she drags them to. They never look like normal kids without worry on their faces - they always seem to be sneering or falling asleep out of what appears to be exhaustion. I dont think Angie and Brad are putting the needs of the children first. Probably because they dont want to split up the family when shooting a movie - but if the bond between them is strong than being apart for a couple months (coming home during that time for visits of course) will do no harm and might help the kids to develope friends and a home life. Children NEED that.

Shiloh is in Cambodia clearing land minds from around Angie’s house.

la la lah @ 11/18/2006 at 1:35 pm

I know Brad was trying to be diplomatic and all, but in this kind of interview i kind of wish it would be Angie who answers. She has a great way to communicate that is straight to the point, not offending in any way, but sums the whole situation in just one or two sentences, so people take her as no bull **** kind of woman. The whole interview script with Brad was rather sounding as if he was trying to promote the movie, because he keeps referring to it. Maybe it’s the geniusity of Brad’s marketing thinking. However the video of the interview has not surfaced yet, so
I wouldnt judge.

… on the other hand…..

Didnt you see Shiloh swimming behind the boat???!!

THANK YOU JJ for the new pictures and thread.

THANK YOU Bluemoon for the transcript of Brad’s interview. He really is amazing isn’t he? Out there, taking care of business. I can’t imagine another “star” doing that.

I am honestly in danger of dying from laughter from all the answers to “where’s Shiloh”. I can’t decide if “they sold her” or “she’s working as Suri’s body double” is my favorite. :lol:

PT - as usual, you are cracking me up. too bad you aren’t a man - I’d go after you in a heartbeat!

Did I read upthread they are done shooting? That they are coming home? I sure hope so!! They may be having the time of their lives, but, I’ve been a nervous wreck! LOL Like I matter (for the haterz out there)

Okay, it looks like we’re going to do the “kids need a home” dance again. I’m sick of that one - can’t they come up with anything original? I’m willing to play, but not the same thing over and over again.

Sassy, just like you want them to leave Maddox and Z at home, there are haters who say bad things about nannies raising them when they are not seen out. They cannot please everybody and by now this family just live their lives they are not trying to please anyone. Let them raise their kids, worry about yours. Also all the haters asking for Shiloh want to judge her and her parents, they don’t care about her, that’s all.

I think the sensitiveness of these accusations deserved more thoughtful and more drawn out answers instead of one or two sentences. More than soundbites. the people may have needed to hear things repeatedly to understand why he said what he did, why they were shooting at the school, and what the movie meant to him. I think Brad did it right. I think he sounded very sincere and very unhappy about the circumstances that occured.

First and foremost they need to be SAFE!! Wake up!! Or were you raised in a home with land mines and constantly staying in hotels so mommy and daddy can sleep together every night so that people dont speculate that theyve broken up? The kids should come first and in this case they do not!

This may come as a bit of a shock to Brangelina worshippers but, 80% of Indians dont know or dont care about Angelina and Brad Pitt!

++++++++++++

ROTFLMAO. Sorry…but this made me laugh out loud…a lot. Sweetie…do you know the population of India is around 1.2 BILLION people? Even if only 20% of the population “know or care about” Brad & Angelina, that’s 240 MILLION people. In contrast the entire population of the United States just passed 300 MILLION people.

If 80% of Americans were Brad and Angie fans? Why, son of a gun…that would be 240 MILLION people. And not to make your brain explode - here’s some more math for you - 240 MILLION + 240 MILLION = 580 MILLION, which is more than HALF A BILLION FANS.

Now…if you want to tackle China, with it’s 1.3 BILLION people, and the rest of Asia where Brad and Angie are both hugely popular, I’m sure I could get the total number of fans to over 1 BILLION. Furthermore, if we include little areas like Europe, South America, the rest of North America and Australia…well…you get my point…which is that your logic is stupid.

The next time you decide to come on here to make a point? You might want to think it through before you hit the “Submit Comment” button.

can you imagine the commotion if they brought that little baby out with them there? brad said they couldnt even go walking with Z and madd the other day because the paps were getting too close and scaring them. taking Shiloh would have been a nightmare situation since everyone wants to see her. they know what is best for their kids… you all take care of yours and the jps will take care of theirs.

Sassy, just like you want them to leave Maddox and Z at home, there are haters who say bad things about nannies raising them when they are not seen out.

Im saying that one of the parents should be home with them when the other is working not leaving them with nannies. Maybe that means they work less and focus on something other than making money to afford the life style they are accustomed too. They should be parents first not actors first.

la la lah,

I read the article and devloped this point of view. I didn’t get where he was trying to promote this movie - its way to early for that. He made several references to his family, how the purpose of the movie is totally against what is happening there. This movie is about compassion and embracing other cultures, religions. Accept the idea of openness, tolerance and empathy for all people.

He has truly defended Mickey and others by saying that he knows of their integrity, that they are fathers and he and Angelina would never hire someone of such character. Also, the quote: “I tell you with all my honor…absolutely not” that their security would ever say such this. (((((BABEL spoiler)))))) This reminds me of the scene with the Tokyo girl wasin the Dentist office and she made a suggestive action towards him and he responded as only an honorable man would do.

Brad is no longer just a pretty face, in fact and in reality, he was never just that. He was always a man and honorable respectable one at that. How ironic that the haters would say anything less or jump to all the wrong conclusions?

jmo…..

Brad is the one who should speak. He is producing the film. Angie is just an “employee”. And I’m glad that he stood up for his project. He is talking about the movie as an example to make more clear how baseless and unfair all these allegations and accusations are and to make people focus and the main reason why this movie is being made and their actual intentions by creating this movie. To help the understanding of different cultures. That is the goal the movie want to achieve. Plus I don’t find anything wrong promoting the movie in someway as well. Brad always knew how to turn a negative situation to be something positive and beneficial.

The a**wipes who come on here asking about Shi really dont care one way or the other, its just to continue their negativity against B&A…. dont even try to explain anything, its not worth it….

Quit having a hissy fit. My lord. Are you wailing on the floor? Do you want a binky?

Nice going, saying they’re not safe? Hmm. Looks like they made it back in one piece. Land mines? Where the flock did that come from?

Obviously, the kids do come first. They’re not leaving them behind for a nanny to raise. They’re with their parents. Quit with the faux concern over the children’s well being. It looks false.

By the way, Shiloh is busy turning water into wine. Or in Sassy’s case, she’ll provide some cheese for that whine.

I know Brad was trying to be diplomatic and all, but in this kind of interview i kind of wish it would be Angie who answers. She has a great way to communicate that is straight to the point, not offending in any way, but sums the whole situation in just one or two sentences, so people take her as no bull **** kind of woman. The whole interview script with Brad was rather sounding as if he was trying to promote the movie, because he keeps referring to it. Maybe it’s the geniusity of Brad’s marketing thinking. However the video of the interview has not surfaced yet, so
I wouldnt judge.

^^

Why should he not use a perfect time and damn near custom made situation to say that they film is speaking to the opposite of what went down. I thought he did it well but thats just me.

Sassy the Assy

You’ve changed your name but you still have the same obsession. How about you do everyone a favor and raise your children according to your standards and lift them up as an example for the whole world to see. In the mean time, piss off! And stop coming to this thread as if you are entitled to being addressed.

Shiloh and Kingston are on a date.
AJ looks great. I guess the haters can’t critique her looks so they are focusing in on Shiloh, and BP and AJ’s parenting skills. Too Funny. Thanks for the transcript of the interview. Time to move forward to the next BAMZS adventure. Next stop, New Orleans.

you noticed that too? sheltered is not the way to live. i envy the global education the jolie-pitt kids are getting. i hope i can do the same for my kids when the time comes. it was such a shock to me to find out there were more than just black and white people, baptists and catholics. these kids will not have that problem. they’re going to grow up intelligent, open and tolerant and far more aware of global issues than many american politicians.

Brad Pitt words

‘We are not planning to adopt from India at this point but it’s certainly something we would consider in the future,’ he said.

Um, dont sound like a man planning to be elsewhere anytime soon to me. Sound like a man whose home to stay.

——————————————

When and where did he says that, TY?

Love this family and what they represent. As for those who are critical about life jackets and where their other daughter is…. deal with it. It’s their life, their children, and obviously nothing harmful occurred. And if something of a peril did occur, am sure there were lifejackets available in the boat.

As for where is Shiloh? Uhh… would a 6 month old baby appreciate sight-seeing or boating right now??? Would you submit a baby to the camera flashes and the chaos the paz create? If I were AJ or BP, I would do the same thing. At least Mad and Zee are a little older and are getting used to the cams–although Zee seems to have much difficulty and appears to be scared at times, that’s why i think Brad holds her alot more. I remember always running to my dad and wanting his arms around me whenever I was scared as a little kid.

Seeing this family spend some quality time w/ their kids amidst the scrutiny makes me appreciate them even more. They truly love their children and want to make sure that they lead normal lives as much as possible. As any good parents, they also want their children to enjoy living and become appreciative of the blessings in their lives.

You judgmental ones can critic all you want…. but perhaps instead of criticizing what they should or should not do, why not try to learn from what they are doing right? We don’t know these people personally, we only read about them and see their pictures. But we surely can be thankful for the way they lead their lives graciously and positively. I appreciate them and am grateful that they choose everyday to make a difference in the world. They impact lives and change the reality of those they help w/ their generosity.

SO, I don’t really bother asking where is Shiloh or they should have done this or that w/ their kids. What remains to be seen is that they are wonderful parents who adore and love their children… so just deal with it!

IMDB.com reports Angelina Jolie is building a house in Cambodia for herself and adopted Cambodian son Maddox. Jolie says she chose Cambodia because she wants Maddox to know his homeland and adds she wants to live in the south east Asia country for “many months out of the year.” However, building in Cambodia has thrown up a number of unique problems. She adds, “I’ve had to de-mine the area that I’m going to live in, and de-mine certain schools.”

It’s been de-mined Assy. Find another obsession and don’t bring it here.

AnotherOne @ 11/18/2006 at 2:29 pm

How long do they intend to keep Shiloh home? She’s almost 6 months now. Zahara was just short of 6 months wen Jolie adopted her and she was carried around by Jolie and seen by public a lot.

It doesn’t seem fair to me for all the three kids, the ones being taken around in public and the one being kept back at home. Mad can walk on his own; or they could have a nanny going with them to places so that they could take Shiloh along.

Note this Q & A from a previous post:
“Barkha: You have three children from completely different parts of the world.

“Brad: Yes. Ethiopia, Cambodia, and our other daughter was born in Namibia. That is understood in all the children as well as us because we believe so much in the importance of where they come from and the idea that we can all get along and we can live and let live.”

The way Brad mentioned “the other daughter” was a little pathetic to me. Shiloh was a American baby born in Namibia, but he instead said it in a way as if her being born in Namibia would make a Namibian and less an American. Why not just say “Ethiopia, Cambodia, and American born in Namibia”. He seems to be trying to de-emphasize her Americanness so as to make a point of his own interest in the less privileged countries.

Also, I don’t think Shiloh, even Zahara, is capable yet to understand any of that respect for different culture thing that he said they all understood. It doesn’t sound so smart for him to say that, it seems to me.

Maniston

Thanks for the article. I love how BP vouched for his men. This is not a man who sees his employees as workers, he is their friend, he KNOWS them and what they are capable of. That’s why it is easy for him to vouch on his honor. Good Going Brad Pitt.

Someone said he seems to be promoting the movie by talking about it. Well, isn’t that the basis of the criticism leveled at them? “Oh they are shooting a movie about racism and their bodyguards are being racist.”…so shouldn’t that be basis of their defense?

Okay….Guys, I know we love Bamzs and all but come on! I was just over at the TC thread and it’s only 12 comments…..12 comments! That is just so wrong…I mean the poor poor man goes all out just so his wedding is the talk of the town…he told us the day, the time, the place…..he tried to lure us in by promising a spectercular event and after all his hard work, all he gets is 12 comments!! Meanwhile on the side of town, BP and AJ are on a boat…not a fast one but a small…teeny tiny baby boat….a canoe and they have 160 something posts. Anyone know what this means….Bamzs doing nothing is waaaay more interesting than Cindarella marrying her prince. Goodness, poor TC….that’s got to hurt (yeah I know he couldn’t careless about JJ bloggers but still). Do a nice thing today, give the TC and KH thread a pity post.

Ok thank you for at least answering the question, I wouldnt put my child in harms way either. But she might want to think of their safety before her desire for a good time and could have purchased a home without land mines - this is my whole point. I do find it rediculous that instead of answering a question most of you just throw insults. I myself am an aerobatic pilot and do many things that most people wouldnt consider the safest things because I wont live in a bottle - however I wouldnt put kids into the equation while Im doing them.

AnotherOne - I don’t know what your issue is. You are really placing this whole thing under a microscope.
Legally Shiloh is a Namibian. When asked, place of birth it won’t be California (USA) but Namibia….simple and clear. And this is how Brad and Angie wanted it. This actually shows how open to they to other cultures. Their children will identify with all races and not only American just because they are…..
What exactly is your point when you say he should have mentioned that Shiloh is an American born in Namibia….why stress the American bit of it…for what purpose. I think it’s so fitting that he actually said “born in Namibia”

Jolie angry with police

Taran Khan/Renni Abraham
Saturday, November 18, 2006 23:13 IST

http://www.dnaindia.com/report.asp?NewsID=1064856

Hollywood star Angelina Jolie is angry at the way her security officers were treated by the Mumbai police, sources close to the film unit of A Mighty Heart told DNA.

Despite rumours that she was set to leave the country early in the wake of the incident, the actress will remain in India till next week.

After two days of high voltage drama, which saw three bodyguards of the star couple running into trouble with the cops, the duo were seen relaxing with their children Zahara and Maddox on Saturday evening by taking a joyride to Alibaug on a ferry.

Jolie has finished her portion of the shooting for A Mighty Heart, which her partner Brad Pitt is producing. Her next destination after India is likely to be Cambodia, which she will visit in her capacity as UN Goodwill Ambassador.

‘Guards were self-employed’

The first day of questioning of the three bodyguards of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt at the Azad Maidan police station focussed around the credentials of the security men.

They were arrested on Friday for allegedly making derogatory remarks to parents of students studying in the Anjum-e-Islam school, where a portion of the film A Mighty Heart was shot.

Investigating Officer Police Sub-Inspector Dhananjay Sonawane told DNA: “We questioned them on Saturday about which security agency they belonged to in the United Kingdom to which the three said they were self-employed security men who were directly hired by Jolie and Pitt. We have also written to the British consulate asking whether any prior government approval was accorded to the security guards.”

++++++++++++++++++++++

I just get the feeling the feeling that the police are upset that they weren’t given detailed info of their visit, so they could sell it to the media and make money off it….

Max,
vajragini and Lena are two sick puppies from Female First. vajragini thinks that AJ put vodoo and love potions on BP. She cracks me up. Lena is just out there. Thanks goodness, I found Just Jared. This is the best site for BP and AJ news. The fans are so supportive of BP and AJ and full of information. Thanks to all the fans.

———————————————————–

Well, you’re money is tied up in a little bundle of joy. I think you’re the one who’s lucky.

I usually travel with friends. My trip to Kenya was a little unexpected. I was actually planning to visit South Africa alone but a friend of mine got a job with an NGO in Kenya so I just changed my plans. Then out of no where another friend of ours decided to come along. We had an absolute blast. Any country is Africa has been my dream vacation since I was a kid. Since Kenya is known for his wildlife, it was tops on my list to safari and safari I did. I will never be able to go to a zoo again. Seeing animals in their natural habitat made me giddy. We were even charged by an elephant. Scariest shiz ever but wonderful all at the same time. In the middle of the night, elephants would play with our tents. Again, the freakiest shiz ever but I figured if I was gonna die I’d rather die by elephant. LOL Enough of that. I could talk about this experience forever.

Cops delete Jolie’s snaps by mistake

November 18, 2006

Guess why actress Angelina Jolie won’t have sweet memories to take back with her after all?

Not only were her bodyguards arrested yesterday but the snaps her Hindi interpreter Nadira (25) had taken of Jolie and her children were accidentally erased by the police who were questioning the bodyguards at the Azad Maidan police station.

Jolie’s bodyguards Michael John Brett (50) of Woodcote Valley, Robert Pattrick Dunn (35) of Bigginhill and Thomas Edward Macdams (47), of Stafford, were arrested under sections 506(2) (Criminal intimidation), 298 (Hurting religious sentiments), 504 and 323 of the IPC yesterday in connection with the fracas at the Anjuman-e-Islam school.

They were taken to the police station for questioning where Nadira, Jolie’s interpreter for the past few years, was also present. When the questioning began, she made the mistake of whipping out her digital camera to record the proceedings.

“Police procedure cannot be pictured or taped inside the police station without prior permission and recording the questioning of an accused is not allowed unless the court grants permission,” said Senior Inspector P D Khanvilkar of Azad Maidan police station.

Snatching the digicam from her hands, the police erased a bit more than they should have. Sources from Jolie’s camp claim the police deleted all the personal photographs that Nadira had taken, including pictures of Jolie and her children.

Assistant Commissioner of Police (Azad Maidan division) Prakash Ade denied having any knowledge about personal pictures being deleted by the police. Sub-inspector Avinash Sonawne of Azad Maidan station said, “She deleted the pictures herself.”

Nadira was issued a warning and the camera was returned to her after the hearing of the bodyguards, which happened yesterday morning. Nadira has tendered a verbal apology to the police.

Angelina speaks

Actress Angelina Jolie sent a press release yesterday stating, “It is not surprising that the press involved failed to mention their share of the responsibility in the chaos.

As for this horrible rumor that someone referred to a local as a ‘bloody Indian,’ let me say this, ‘I would never work with anyone who was derogatory towards another man’s race. My family is of mixed race’.”

Guards irked

After the complainant Zuber Ansari (47) identified the bodyguards, a police team headed by Sub-inspector Sonawne visited room no 306 at the Taj Hotel at 9.30 am and requested the three men to accompany them to the police station for an inquiry.

However, in the police station, the bodyguards were informed of their arrest.

“How could they do this? The police told us they would conduct an inquiry and release us, but arrested us instead. They cheated us,” Dunn was heard saying in the police station.

Sonawne admitted they had to make such a statement in order to avoid any ruckus in the hotel.

The men initially refused to co-operate with the cops. It was only after the intervention of their lawyers, Mahesh Jethmalani and Dinesh Tiwari and officials from the British High Commission, that they began to speak.

The three were produced before the Esplanade Court and were granted bail after paying a surety of Rs 25,000 each. They have been directed to report to the police station every day for a week.

Just recently in DC a mother was walking her two small children across the street and some drunk mowed them down. A week before a mother had a baby in her arms and her six and seven year old with her. All of a sudden the two boys just decided to dart across the street and were killed in front of her. Life is brutal sometimes and you can’t live in fear for what might happen. These mothers certainly never expected to lose their children. But you can’t criticize these mothers for walking their children out on the street.

I read a lot of moaning and groaning on this site about taking the children out in a crowd, about not taking the children out in a crowd, about their haircuts, about the way their hair is combed, about smiling, about not smiling. I can’t believe any mother is really that critical of another mother. Do you do that to all of your friend’s children? I love my children and I made many, many mistakes raising them. I just don’t remember my friends sitting on my backside telling me what a bad mother I was. Angelina Jolie is trying her best to do right by these children. I have no doubt that she loves them. Let her make mistakes without always being a judge and jury.

People feel that since Mad travels that much , there is no stability for the kid. I think you are worrying too much.

Stability for a child is NOT referring to staying put in one single city. Stability for a child is referring to a child having loving parents, that one parent is not bringing a different boyfriend or girlfriend every few months, It refers to the parents who are loving, attentive and kind to their children. It refers to the parents who are not on drugs or alcohol. It refers to the harmony of the household.

People are too quick to jump to conclusion that Mad should stay put in one city for schooling and not do much travelling. I am sure Mad is being home schooled. There is nothing wrong with home school. The curriculum is more customized. Social skills does not have to be achieved in a school environment. Mad can pick up tennis, or play with other children on the set. Home schooling is acturally more work. There are progress reports to file with the proper department. The child will be tested just like you and me.

I have no problem in Mad travelling. At this young age, it is actually good for Mad. Travel is knowledge. It broadens your mind. It expands your horizon. You cant get anything better than that.

I cannot predict whether Jolie and Pitt’s children will have a successful career in acting, doctor, engineer. This is too early to tell. But I can say, without a word of doubt., that these children will grow up well adapted, good team player, and responsible citizens.

People should be kind to this family. For those people who wrote hateful and hurtful remarks, remember, you reap what you sow.

Maniston

you’re right. i’ve got up to $10K to save for legal fees and travelling. i’m hoping that war doesn’t break out before i can get the process finalized. did you know that somalia’s on the verge of another conflict and it’s very possible that ethiopia and eritrea will be dragged into it because of the ethnic somalis who’ve taken refuge in those countries? it scares me and a lot of other potential adoptive parents silly. it’s not like i can’t adopt from haiti or brazil or anywhere else, but when you’ve started to invest your money and your heart somewhere and it looks like it’s going to blow up, it’s terrifying.

you got charged by an elephant? what do you do in a situation like that? do you try to make yourself invisible or run?

Jenni what about the bible saying “Judge not, for ye shall be judge” The bible says the first will be the last and the last shall be first, meaning you never know who will enter therein. We should remove the log in our eyes before removing the specks in other people’s eyes. Best wishes to the Jolie-Pitts. They are being prayed for.

ritzygal -

Your concern of Z not smiling is unfounded. Some children are more serious. Some children are more out going. Some children are more friendly to strangers. At this young age,it is too early to predict anything. You should NEVER diagnose from a few pictures. anyone who is a mature adult will know that.

ritzygal -

Judging from your comments, you really have a black soul.
You wrote hateful and hurtful remarks, remember, you reap what you sow. You should be kind to this family.

now, to respond to your comments on this family :–
I remember watching PBS, some student asked how Bill Gates raised his children considering he is the riches man in the world . He said he would expose ( he meant travel ) his children to the 3rd world and to learn about the culture , so that his children would appreciate life
Bill also said that when his children travels around the world to see other cultures, they will understand that they are living the good life in America, and that there are many who aren’t so fortunate, so that will keep them grounded.

I

Also Jenni what about you loving your neighbors as yourself, if you want to judge using the bible. To love irritating others does not sound like it. Practice what you are trying to preach!!!!

ey jennieycolog,you tiny brainless!why are you here?go to ff.

Jenni, are you a kid not loved by your parents? And this eternal hell thing and Sodoma and Gomorra, I tell you are an obsessed Nazi, a fascist and a racist. Because of your vile comments you are the one to burn in eternal hell, because God is watching you and sees that your heart is full of hatred. The people like you burnt others in the Middle Age. For people like you i have the utmost sorrow, because their life is sad.
I’m sure you are proud of your evil comment.

Your child is coming gitane, regardless of what may take place in the region. You must have faith in that.

The elephant charge:
We were actually in a jeep when we came upon a momma elephant and her baby. Now our guide knew not to get too close but I always wonder if we humans share the same definition as the elephant as to what “too close” is. Anywho, I’ve seen enough nature shows through the years to know that when an elephant shakes it head it might be ready to charge. Apparently our guide Simon had the same thought and began to turn the jeep around just as momma elephant began to charge. My heart was in my throat and it was glorious. It was a fake charge. Just a warning telling our asses to back the eff off.

Now one final elephant story. Once dusk sets in at camp, visitors are not allowed to walk along the grounds without security escort. This is because the camp is in the middle of the Masai Mara and is basically open to any animal that wants to visit. Lions, Hyenna, Giraffe, Elephant, you name it. Now there’s a family of elephant that likes to spend their nights in camp. Why? Don’t really know. Anywho, after dinner our guide who’s walking us back to our tents, asks if we would like to see Big Momma. Now you have to realize its pitch black and we are making our way along the trail by flashlight. Three of us say yes (of course I’m the loudest) and my friend Teresa yells ***** No. She was out voted. We walk for about 10 seconds when the light from the flashlight hits upon the largest animal I have even seen. Must have been 10 stories high and looking straight at us. She raises her trunk and makes the noise only an elephant can make. Now I don’t speak elephant but I’m pretty sure she said, Who the f uck are you looking at?! This is when my friend Teresa started yelling, “turn the flashlight off, turn the flashlight off!” LOL She’ll never live that down.

I would go back in a New York Minute. Here’s where we stayed.

As SMA GC has to do…like tours around the country and stuff. We’ve been visiting the ugly people….reassuring them that even though there won’t be a most beautiful or Handsome or sexy award in their future….life is still worth living. Oh Gitane, one particular town that we visited was just tragic….the people were the ugliest, I’ve ever seen. I mean you know how people say someone got hit with the ugly stick, well these people were the ugly stick.I found it really difficult to tell them life is still worth living…..that’s how ugly they are. At first, I felt so sorry for them…until I discoverd they spent their time throwing insults at beautiful people. Why, I’m sure you’ve heard of them….some people call them Fanistons, others call them heifers. Anyway, being the kindhearted soul I am, I asked doctor why they were so ugly and he said “Hate will do that to ya..” Sad isn’t it?

So there you have it…. the reason we were unable to make the wedding….Our tour of Duty as SMA and First Lady comes first. I hope you were not thinking we got snubbed, ignored, cast aside like day old garbage, overlooked, bounced….like Ms. O.

I’m so glad that all the hoopla is blowing over now — all the stuff about his ex and all. This is a lovely family. I think they were a little stiff with each other at first, but now they look really, really happy. Look at their relaxed expressions. You can really see how Brad is just proud to be a father. They have a life that anyone would envy. It must be so exciting to travel to so many exotic locations with your entire family and stay in beautiful hotels and meet so many different people. These children are so blessed to have parents like Brad and Angelina.

Jenni we don’t tolerate people who behave like you. Please leave!!!!

They are starting to look lie The Wild Thornbarries.

I don t believe Male Fan is a BAMZS fan… we used to get people say horrible things just so people could claim Brad and angies fans were as bad as anustons.

I dont think anyone condones that. wish we could have a button to have jj delete like we used to.

African Girl @ 11/18/2006 at 3:38 pm

Male Fan
And your response to Jenni is different how? That was completly uncalled for…of course, I won’t be surprised if it is Jenni herself responding. It won’t work stupid….this is not Femal First. Now park you bags and go back to the gutter with the other pigs.

The obvious reason why the parents of this child, Shiloh, is so protective of their baby is because the media goes “crazy “whenever they see even just a hint of that child. Any concerned parent/s, of course, will be extra cautious with their child/ren. It’s a natural instinct of a parents to protect their child/ren from harm, whether imminent or not. Even with Mad and Z are not photographed as frequent as before. This couple understood the media frenzy that goes with their famed lives but are just trying to do their bests to raised their children in a safe (limited it may be), loving and protective environment. Our interests in this couple and their young family seemed to be insatiable, I myself guilty. Despite our forever infringement in their private lives.

TO THOSE WHO POST HERE JUST TO GROUSED: it’s time to find a “positive” outlet for that “lack” of satisfied life. Instead of being over critical of celebrities’s lives, it would be so much better to do something about their miseries that seemed to be chewing your lives one painful bite at a time.

We know that you sick women are playing a game. One comes on as a stupid male fan and the others react. You are the pathetic ones. Go play your game over at Female First. We are trying our best to ignore you. It must kill you to see how happy this family is. Jen Hens need to go and cluck at Female First and worship their idol.

Sassy, Male fan is also the poster Jeni.

Some people mentioned why Shiloh was not in the pictures:—

Here is my response, but first a couple points on child development

1) Infants nap many times during the day. There is no set number of naps for infants. Even a normal range is WIDE.

2) The feeding and napping schedule or routine are different for infant and toddler. I mention this because Shiloh is still an infant but Z is a beginning toddler.

We did not see Shiloh. It is certainly normal because again, she needs more nap than Z. May be it’s also very close to her feeding time. Generally, infants, being this young, does not give the parent a big block of time in between each feeding, waking and napping .

Sassy, are you going to spend the whole day here blaming people? The regular fans know themselves and the ‘haters’ try to wreck the thread, who’ve seen everything in the book, we are fazed.

“Let me guess…..Your real name is Britney Spears??”

This may be alot to ask of you but if you read my post thoroughly with intelligent thought and all brain cells firing properly, my post stated in many third world countries there are no selt belts, car seats or floatation devices available, unlike Britney Spears situation where she had access to and money to purchase seat belts and carseats but deliberately chose not to, moreover she drove a vehicle with her baby on her lap, not only obviously dangerous but against US law…BS situation and BP/AJ’s circumstance is not even comparable, a misplaced analogy on your part but to give you the benefit of the doubt I’m going to make a wild guess that you were making a veiled attempt at being clever in your attack of my post… you must be desperate to attack my innocuous post, rarely does anyone comment on my postings. Don’t waste your provoking on me, it seems you have many others on your tail who are better experienced at retaliation and retorts…since that’s what you seek…hell hath no fury like a BAMZS fan made mad with overzealous unsubstantiated information and you are certainly good at that. Your comment on the landmines in Africa versus Cambodia is negligent and too doltish to even address…that’s d-o-l-t-i-s-h, it’s under “d” in the dictionary. BAMZS posters as always take credibility seriously and will make you responsible for your loose comments…you’re way out of your league amongst those here, you can’t even get your facts correct and yet try to start a debate with false information, misplaced analogies…that’s sad, pathetic really but on the bright side, BAMZS fans are forgiving especially to those less endowed at the cerebral cellular level. Have a great day Sassy.

Grandma, valuable advise. Thank you .

As a mother of 3 , I am constantly amazed at the “non fans” of Brad and Angelina to harp , criticise , spew hatred, racism and more.. not only at Brad and Angelina but also on their children. I can only wonder at their mentality and age in all this ignorance. Life is a lot more than thinking about your own selfish self. Being a mother, one would naturally understand this calling or just being a caring individual would make one well aware of other people feelings, lives, children and more that one would constantly place ahead of their own selfish self.

so jenni admits to being male fan and says she was just kidding? but that she isnt from ff. ok well she would fit in there perfectly. I dont see how someone can do stuff like that.. just evil

Well odd how she decided to split at the same time Male fan did when we began talking about checking posters IP addresses and finding out if they were posting under different names.

either way.. good riddance to both.

well off to walk my dog..

later guys…

The more I read about this incident, the more fishy it seems to me. I find the behaviour of the Indian police very suspectful. They are not playing by the rule, and i hope that all Hollywood studios will boycott India. Those Indians wh owant to put a blame on Brad and Angie, they want to teach a lesson to Westerners, but in the long run they only hurt themselves.

there is a video of them on the boat ride at http://www.splash-video.com/index2.pgi

Where is Shiloh? She is always covered , but not the other kids. which mean people are more interested with Shiloh than the others. These adopted kids are in , for a lifetime of snubs. Started with the madame Tussaud stuff if a family is composed of 5 people, how come we see only three in the museum. Can not wait for them to grow up, Bradley and Angelina, will have their hands full. Can not wait.

They look great.. Madox look funny with those highlights… :)

I love them anyway… :)

Brad Pitt words

‘We are not planning to adopt from India at this point but it’s certainly something we would consider in the future,’ he said.

Um, dont sound like a man planning to be elsewhere anytime soon to me. Sound like a man whose home to stay.

++++++++++++

According to the new L&S - that font of truthful stories for all things BAMZS - Brad told Angie’s mother, during his recent return to LA, that he would always love and be with Angelina. And now Angie’s cancer-riddled mother can die in peace. These damned tabs just won’t leave that poor woman alone. If she is as sick as they say, surely they don’t think them continually writing BS about her kid is of any comfort to her? No, they don’t think that…but it sells mags so they’ll keep riding that horse until it dies from exhaustion.

He was proecting his family. The paps were surrounding them.

Just saw the video and damn! in the last part you can see that Brad has his arm around angelina trying to protect her because the razzis and onlookers are crushing them. It’s insane, I can’t wait till they get out of India.

The pictures on Ramey are so frustrating!! I want to see the closeups! I’m SUCH agreedy lil BAMZSer! :lol:

IF it is true that the police erased the photos of Angie’s interpreter, then I will surely know most if not all of the reports we have been hearing are false. Shame on them. Did they not get their kickback?

Later “peeps” we are going out for dinner.

Well the new Splash video shows, why they must be protected. At the end of the boat trip they were mobbed. Now I’m really getting angry how the Indian media treats them unfairly.

That Splash video is wild. If the paps acted that way on a family outing, I can imagine the chaos at the School. Those bodyguards had a difficult job. The paps showed no respect for boundaries. I am not surprised that Ritzy works for a Photo Outlet, meaning the Pips. She has a shitzy job and to come to Just Jared to agitate is pathetic. The Paps have had a grudge against BP and AJ ever since Shiloh was born. They did not get the 4 million dollar shot that would put them on the map.

Original Curious @ 11/18/2006 at 4:51 pm

Thank you for the Splash video. I just had to say, it is so funny about “perceptions”. I had no idea where they were headed to or from when I saw the shots. Imagine my surprise to see they were headed FROM a large boat TO land! :lol: I also had tears in my eyes at seeing how crowded they were. Okay, I admit, and seeing Brad with his arm around Angie. How ANYONE can look at that video and NOT understand why security guards might be a tad aggressive is beyond me. I would fight like a tiger if I were stuck in a crowd like that. I’m in awe that they take it with so much grace.

_________________________
You asked about Angie’s past. You also questioned about us not having social lives.

1) you posted a question, pretending to be curious. But when no one is writing what you wanted to see, you started detailing Angie’s past such as “….cutting…loner…knives…” etc. In fact, none of the respondents mentioned these (cutting, loner, knieves). If you know all the answers already, why ask? Also is it reasonable to say you are “baiting”?

2) You complained that we dont have social lives. I find your comments even more ridiculous. True, you see over 500 posts. But remember, this is a very popular blog. Many people come here. No one is blogging at the expense of our job. True, you may see some regulars here. Being a regular does NOT equate to spending all day here. Did they tell you they dont have a life??? Did they tell you they dont go to the gym? Did they tell you that they dont socialize with other people? Just because people dont tell you what they do doesnt mean they dont have a life. In fact, many people told you they do participate in other activities.

3) Did you make a log of how many times this person post, and how often? Since this is a big thread and having so many posts, just eyeballing is not good enough. You need a more “scientific” approach in arriving your opinion. Another thing, just what is your criteria about “a lot”?

If you put the volume all the way up, you can here maddox say mommy, he must have been scared, I hope the media will take a look at this video and see why Brad and Angie need this protection.

Im saying that one of the parents should be home with them when the other is working not leaving them with nannies. Maybe that means they work less and focus on something other than making money to afford the life style they are accustomed too. They should be parents first not actors first.

++++++++++++

Why do haters have to come here with this half-assed logic? They were actors before they were parents and that’s how they make their living. Yes they have money and never have to work again if they don’t want to. But, should being a parent exclude all other aspects of their lives? It’s not the case for any other parent so why should Brad and Angelina have to adhere to illogical standards just to appease you? You think that highly of yourself that other people should live their lives according to your rules?The day you’re responsible for Brad and Angelina, as well as their children, is the day you get to tell them what to do and how to do it. And since we ALL know that day is never going to come - Step. The. F#ck. Off.

They look worried. Angelina won’t let go of Maddox, and Brad won’t let go of Zahara. It is unbelievable how beautiful Angelina is. Even her worst pictures are better than most people’s best. Beautiful Family!!!

Dateline with Anne Curry June 2005

Jolie: I think for everybody, especially for every woman, we’ve had a moment where you’re lying in bed and you’re thinking about the person next to you, and you think, “You have no idea who I am.”

(Jolie says both her own husbands were wonderful men. Still, she says, she could personally identify with what Jane Smith was going through.)

Jolie: There was something missing … that we didn’t have the same value for how we wanted to live our lives, what we wanted to do with our lives — if we wanted to be of use to others, in what ways. We didn’t have the same goals. And that, at the end of the day, as much as you can have fun with them, you can have great sex with somebody, you can have all that stuff, [but] if you don’t wake up with a common purpose and a dream to live a similar legacy, then it’s not going to work. It didn’t for me. So, this film also came at a time where I’ve been analyzing what that is. And I know now what it would need to be in order to be married again.

Curry: So, it did teach you something.

Jolie: Yeah, yeah.

Curry: Something maybe changed a little bit of what may be possible in that area for you.

Jolie: Yeah, and it certainly made me think what a nice thing it would be to have a teammate.

People complain about Americans being a celebrity obsessed country. Glad to know we’re not the only one’s. You can bet that the Indians are as celebrity obsessed as Americans.

Zahara looks so much like Angelina in this photo:

As you have hopefully figured out, this forum is different than most. It is NOT a “hate” forum like Female First, D-Listed, etc, but a “support” and information forum for those sincerely interested in the BAMZS family. The tone is different here and the regular posters very nice, well educated (not necessarily academically but defnitely well informed), logical and rational and sometimes downright silly…not to say there isn’t some name calling here and JA bashing but as I’ve said many times on this forum…we all can’t be saints all the time. Plus if you are really interested in the BAMZS family and/or a good debate where logic rules and emotions most of the time do not influence opinions, this is the place… and “Yes” to answer your question “do you normally suffer these kind of people?, there are mean-spirited, downright hateful posters who come to any JJ BAMZS thread and deliberately promote uncalled for, hideous, vicious posts “just because”. This has been happening over the many months to a year that I’ve been lurking on JJ. I would say at least once a month, there is at least one incident of really ugly vile hate. Sometimes they are college/high school kids on school break, sometimes seriously deranged individuals and more often people who enjoy provoking/baiting/instigating emotions if not against innocent children and BP/AJ but against regulars (and their children) who post here. This site is an easy target and the regulars here have become a “family in themselves” because of it. Because there are so many “haters” as they call them, regulars here are rightfully more protective, cautious, suspicious of any new poster who comes with an “attitude” or posts with generalities without qualifications. I’m sure you would protect your family in the same manner if the kind of vile comments you just read were directed at them…is that taking it seriously…you decide. I can reassure you that if you are a serious poster wanting to debate a wide range of topics, be prepared to substantiate facts, qualify your comments with reasonable references or links, be willing to listen to honest opinions and to participate in some really good debates eg the topic on Oprah was great, the Maddox thigh topic and Zahara’s hair issue was silly fun, computer topics are always informative. You ask “do people really take this stuff that seriously???…well yes and no, yes to what is happening to the BAMZS family, their safety, their misinterpreted image, the lack of appreciation for what they have done in recognizing the refugee issue, children, etc and the unsubstantiated/non factual negative taunting, the negative inuendoes, the manipulation by the tabloids and “no” to JA in general because she is somewhat of a joke…really. I can honestly say to you if you are serious about staying on this forum lurk for awhile and understand the tone, get to know the regulars with their postings, be humble because someone on this forum will definitely know more than you and provide you with references, dates and links about a given topic. Posters here are international and the regulars very saavy. And if you lurk and don’t like it …so be it. This is a positive site, not a negative one and it’s not for everyone…some get their kicks from negativity. I hope you understand more about BAMZS fans in general and especially the ones who frequent here.

How long do they intend to keep Shiloh home? She’s almost 6 months now. Zahara was just short of 6 months wen Jolie adopted her and she was carried around by Jolie and seen by public a lot.

It doesn’t seem fair to me for all the three kids, the ones being taken around in public and the one being kept back at home. Mad can walk on his own; or they could have a nanny going with them to places so that they could take Shiloh along.

+++++++++++

Why is it so hard for people to understand that you do not take a 6 month old baby who hasn’t all of the immunization shots out in public in a third world country! HELLO! Get on the freaking clue bus! Would YOU take YOUR baby out in these same areas? If you answered yes, then why not just get a vial of tuberculosis or some other airborne disease and inject the kid yourself? How stupid can you be?

While it’s true that Maddox can walk on his own, it’s also true that Brad and Angie are being followed by mobs of people every time they set foot outside. Do you not understand that if a situation breaks out one of them is going to have to pick up Mad to insure his safety? The bodyguards are there to protect the family, so what good will they be for protection if they have to take care of one of the children?

As for Angie taking Zahara out in public at the same age? Okay…now I KNOW you’re dumber than dirt because ANGIE BROUGH Zahara OUT OF A THIRD WORLD COUNTRY NOT INTO ONE. You do understand that we, here in the United States of America, are blessed with having eradicated the majority of airborne diseases that can kill an infant? Do you understand that part? WE don’t have the same public health issues they have in the third world, therefore one can take their infant out in public without fearing that simply inhaling will give them some horrible disease.

One last thing - the nanny. If Brad and Angelina were out with their children and had the nanny along, then you people would complain that they don’t take care of their own children! There have been comments from people who know them and have seen them at home in LA who’ve said point-blank that they don’t have a full-time nanny! They are very hands-on with their children and do most of the work themselves. So it’s ironic that when they are out in public with their children, taking care of them themselves, some twit like you comes along and b#tches because they don’t have the nanny with them. There’s just no winning with people like you. They’re damned if they do it their way and damned if they don’t do it your way!

Now I have a question of my own - have schools in this country stopped teaching the basics of raising children AND the basics of public health? Because if not, there are a hell of a lot of people out there, apparently Americans, who skipped a hell of a lot of school!

Brad Pitt explains his side of story
18th Nov 2006 10.00 IST
By ApunKaChoice

http://www.apunkachoice.com/scoop/hollywood/20061118-0.html

After the ruckus over the alleged racial slur by Angelina Jolie’s bodyguards, Brad Pitt explains his side of the story.

It is national news by now that Brangelina’s bodyguards, on Thursday, allegedly roughed up a few people (including a child and a woman) and made racist remarks while handling a crowd of parents when the movie A Mighty Heart was being shot at Anjuman-e-Islam school in south Mumbai.

In an exclusive interview to NDTV, Brad Pitt has denied that any racial remarks were made.

Speaking to NDTV’s managing editor Barkha Dutt, Pitt said reports of racist slur are “absolutely not true” and he is “horrified by this allegation.”

Pitt said he and Jolie (his partner) have an inter-racial family and they would never hire anyone who is a racist. “It goes against everything we believe in,” Pitt said.

Corroborating Pitt’s assertion, Irrfan Khan , the Indian actor who is working with Jolie in the film, told Barkha Dutt that the entire story has been presented in a “completely biased way” by the media.

“I can vouch for his integrity,” Khan said pointing towards Pitt.

Khan, who was present at the shoot when the incident happened, said it was paparazzi that were blocking the gate. And that is why the whole argument started.

Pitt said the very allegations of racial slur goes against the purpose of the movie they are making.

‘A Mighty Heart’ is based on “the idea of embracing all cultures,” Pitt said.

However, he regretted that the students’ day was disrupted at the school.

The entire interview will be telecast on NDTV on Saturday night at 2200 hrs IST.

Brad's interview @ 11/18/2006 at 6:11 pm

Full Interview

Barkha: The film Mighty Heart brought two of the Hollywod’s biggest names, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, to India. Everybody was very excited, not surprisingly the paparazzi did not leave them alone for a moment. Was that the problem? Why the film has been overshadowed by a headline of unsavoury kind? The latest controversy being the arrest of three of the bodyguards on the crew and location…allegations of parents in a dominant Muslim school saying that the bodyguards have made a racial slur.

We are, for the first time, in conversation with the producer of the film and one of Hollywood’s biggest names, Brad Pitt, along with one of India’s best known actors Irfan Khan who plays a lead role in the film. This is Brad’s first interview of any kind since he has been in India avoiding all those media hounds and we are hoping it will go beyond this incidence to talk about your entire experience here in India.

Brad: Thank you for taking your time out.

Barkha: Thank you for making time. I can imagine what kind of days it has been for you. Did you ever imagine when you were packing your bags to India that one of your stops would include a visit to the police commissioner’s office?

Brad: No. I did not foresee that. I have to say because it is just completely antithetical of what the film is about. So the turn of events is a bit baffling to us. But you know we are here to answer any allegations and certainly set the record straight because these are not our intentions, nor the intention of the people involved.

Barkha: Let me ask you very directly. The perception is that your cast and crew were shooting here and parents had come to pick up their children. It was peak time when the children were trying to get out and they were also excited to see you, Angelina and other stars. They were probably hemming in trying to get a glimpse. The bodyguards at that time, to try and keep the crowd away, got a little rough and the amount of things they said…”You bloody Indians…you bloody Muslims.”

Brad: Absolutely not true. And you know I have to say that we are horrified by these allegations and you must understand our intention for the story is to focus on a similarity of cultures. It is a story of a journalist who believed in truth and making the world a better place by enlightening each other on a point of view and believe in dialogues, and he was a great lover of culture and the world itself. In the story itself, with the abduction, what occurred was to bring together people from different cultures and religions…you have Muslims, Hindus, agnostics, Buddhists, Christians, all people working together to find this man who happened to be a Jewish, but more importantly a believer in a world, who considered himself a citizen of the world and this is a beautiful story for us.

Barkha: Absolutely

Brad: This is the purpose of telling a story. So having these allegations goes against the purpose of the movie and it is disappointing for us and I would like to now answer that.

Barkha: I’ll get into the film in course of the conversation but you know how bodyguards are. They have a tough time and they get rough sometimes. It is also a different culture, it is also a language they speak. When you say that they did not say these things, is it from the knowledge or faith or instinct or are you willing to vouch that they did not say these things?

Brad: All of that. All that across the board I tell you with all my heart. I understand that for Angelina and me to stand up and tell this story is this idea of embracing our cultures. This idea of acceptance, the idea of openness and dialogue with each other. This idea of tolerance which we believe in with all our heart and if you look at our history what we have been involved with…we will never work with anyone who thinks otherwise. Absolutely not. and this is a horrible misunderstanding, but it is just that misunderstanding and we hope to establish that truth so the film and the message of the film is not tainted because the history is worth telling today.

Barkha: Irfan, if I bring you in on one point. Because sometimes people mean something and another thing happens. It is the perils of coming into a country where you do not necessarily speak the language of the people. It happens in rural urban clashes within India itself. There are people who speak English…Not just as somebody who is a member of this cast and crew, but as a Muslim it is such a sensitive subject. Right now you know the very suggestion that somebody may have said what Brad say didn’t happen…”You bloody Muslim”. It automatically brings India together and you start looking at the crew who came in as the outsider. What did you feel about this when you read about this, heard about this, saw the visuals on TV of parents saying this is what happened.

Irfan: You know I saw a channel. They were continuously running a story of what happened here. It was a completely biased approach that they had because they were saying Brad “Pint”, Anjelina Jolie’s boyfriend was there and he did not come out, Irfan Khan was there in the shooting and he didn’t say anything to the parents. Now, I say he was not there. He was in Varanasi and I am sure about it. We were shooting inside and when we came out of the hotel everyone was there, the press was there and they wanted to cover it. It is their job…OK but they were following us and when we went inside the school the timing was such that we were entering and kids were coming out.

As we got in we started shooting. We were supposed to be doing scenes so we were busy doing the shoot and suddenly we started hearing some noises. We thought the press was trying to cover it. Then it took another shape and I was continuously laughing, saying it was nothing.

Barkha: You must have seen this in India so many times?

Irfan: Yes. So many times and today when I saw them so concerned I said it is nothing.

Barkha: And it would have been nothing, had it not been for that allegation?

Irfan: I can vouch that Brad would not keep such racial people with him. Whatever I have understood about him, about the intention of the film and why they are making the film, this is an actor I know what is all about.

Brad: You know we have an interracial family. It is very important to us that our kids grow up understanding their own respective cultures, their own religions, of the country they are from. This is our intention.

Barkha: You have three children from completely different parts of the world.

Brad: Yes. Ethiopia, Cambodia, and our other daughter was born in Namibia. That is understood in all the children as well as us because we believe so much in the importance of where they come from and the idea that we can all get along and we can live and let live.

Barkha: But Brad, not to be cynic but the allegation is not that Brad Pitt and Irfan Khan came out into the crowd and made racial remarks. The allegation is that in the heat of the moment your security guards may have lost their temper and said something that was inappropriate.

Brad: Again I am saying that we would never ever hire these people. We will never work with them because it goes against everything we believe in. Also, these men are fathers, they all have kids themselves. They were hoping to get back home from tomorrow. But they will never hurt a child or yell at a child. They will never push the child.

Barkha: Did you get the chance to speak with them and what is their version?

Brad: Absolutely, I know their integrity. As Irfan said when they drove up to the school they were shooting a scene. This brings us to the subject of the role of media and its capability. There are very aggressive facts on media and I am certainly not entitled to believe it. But this is a particular fact that they have been aggressive and have not given us a moment of peace.

Also, the other day when we were taking a walk with our kids, we were surrounded by the local guys. I told them that we are trying to take our kids for a walk and I understand you guys want to take pictures but keep a distance and not scare the kids. But they completely ignored and just surrounded us. The kids did not know how to take it, so we called up the office and came back.. From my investigation they were blocking the gates as the kids were trying to come out of the school. The parents had come to pick up their kids. Now this is not mentioned in the media at all and also this particular fact that paparazzi or tabloid media (or how we want to label them) also rushed to the gate of the school, carrying itself to a fracas.

Barkha: So the school also said that the cast and crew came an hour later than they were meant to and therefore hit the peak time.

Brad: I don’t understand that. I had not heard that but I want to say it just brings up an interesting debate on when the media actually creates the news and staying there just observing and recording news. I think it is a debate that needs to be had because they certainly say this.

Barkha: Well we have heard that debate many times in our country. Just one last question on this incident, do you believe that people who work with you can ever say this?

Brad: I tell you with all my honour…absolutely not.

Barkha: So do you think it is all a misunderstanding? You think the people who are making the allegations are lying?

Brad: Knowing all intentions of the story I am absolutely baffled by all this. I do not know it is the subject matter of this film itself that lead to people questioning, may be we should have explained our intentions about the story when we came here.

Barkha: May be you hid from the press too much.

Brad: Yeah…you know our idea is to come, do our work, have an experience at the end, have a press conference and talk about it. My job was producing the film, deal with my kids, and as I said we probably should have come out of the gate and explained our purpose here.

Barkha: Do you feel regret even though you feel your bodyguards did not say anything?

Brad: Let me tell you what I regret. I regret that the students’ day at the school was disrupted and I also believe the media who were present should join me in that regret because they were also the part of the problem…and well I regret that.

Okay….Guys, I know we love Bamzs and all but come on! I was just over at the TC thread and it’s only 12 comments…..12 comments! That is just so wrong…I mean the poor poor man goes all out just so his wedding is the talk of the town…he told us the day, the time, the place…..he tried to lure us in by promising a spectercular event and after all his hard work, all he gets is 12 comments!!

+++++++++++

Hey AG - I could go over there and post a comment, but I thought I’d give Katie a break on the day she gets a possible life sentence! Besides, I really don’t think Tom would appreciate the comment that I would leave: “Now that all gays can marry Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have announced they too will wed!”

Zahara is looking more and more like her mommie - the lips and eyes. Amazing. Just like Madonna’s son David looks like her son Rocco.

Wow, this morning there were like 45 posts about 6 hours ago now we are at like 300+

Angie looks nice in that white tee shirt. Hope before Xmas we get to see Shilie (my nickname for Shi) :)

Hi, everyone! How are my favorite BAMZERS doing today?

Hey, Team Laura-Croft. . .weren’t you over at Dlisted causing ruckus the other day? LOL

Observer2 @ 11/18/2006 at 6:20 pm

Now I have a question of my own - have schools in this country stopped teaching the basics of raising children AND the basics of public health? Because if not, there are a hell of a lot of people out there, apparently Americans, who skipped a hell of a lot of school!

++++++++++++++

PT-I don’t think it matters much. When you have people that don’t have two active brain cells to rub together. You can’t create matter, where none exists.

#3 Why can’t they just go away???

your first plan of action for them going away would be ……
don’t click on a thread about them. Get it?

Where’s Shiloh?

French Girl @ 11/18/2006 at 6:24 pm

Ummmm. . .how can Zahara look like AJ when she’s not even her biological daughter??? Geesh! I can see loving this couple, but come on people!

Why cant you stay away?

Shouldn’t their children be wearing life preservers? If this was britney spears, I can just imagine the headlines. The head band is really bad and cheesy!

Observer2 @ 11/18/2006 at 6:26 pm

Shiloh’s driving the car that’s taking them back to their hotel.

She’s been taking driving lessons whilst in India.

PassingThrough:

You think you were smart, but if you truely were, you could explain yourself better without having to use words such as “stupid” or “dumber” repeatedly in so many different ways. Nor would you need to shout out your words by capitalizing them. You sure don’t sound to me like a smart person talking. Besides, what you said was full of contradictions that they don’t deserve any substantive response. More response would just bring out more shouting and cursing from you.

You sounded like a very small-minded person who thinks she’s got answers to everything.

Passing Through is one of the leaders of this cult called “BAMZERS”. It sits around on its computer all day, perusing sites with the HOLY COUPLE. LOL.

French Girl: I totally agree with you. Was thinking just the same.

That’s why they are fans. They think they’ve got answers for everything and they can imagine all the things that don’t exist.

I see the ocean screamers are back with the B/S ?’s…. :lol: :lol:

ROTFLMAO! Sorry, Jared, but I love it when people find inventive ways around the “no cussing” rule!

BTW - Male Fan…normally comments like this turn my stomach, but considering who you were talking to…dude…wear a condom…and get some gloves from OJ.

Thanks, This is a much much better version of the interview. Glad Irfan cleared everything up and stood up for Brad.

Soon “Where’s Shiloh?” game will be replacing “Where’s Waldo” in Walmart.

It’s ok, their screams are so high pitched, that only dogs can hear.

Steamboat Annie @ 11/18/2006 at 6:36 pm

They are everywhere you turn. These people who want their privacy, yet they are plastered over the internet everywhere!! With the exception of you loonies, everyone is sick of them….and for good reason!!

Hallo to all JJ BAMZS fans and to Andromeda !!! welcome back lady !!I hope everything is OK at home !!

Observer2 @ 11/18/2006 at 6:38 pm

Steamboat Annie;

If everyone was sick of them, then their pics wouldn’t be plastered everywhere and you wouldn’t be here.

You like them. You hate yourself for it, but you do.

who plasters them all over the internet? Brad and Angie have nothing to do with that. If you don’t like them its very easy to skip over and on to someone you do like.. You just like to look at them and *****. We know!

French Girl @ 11/18/2006 at 6:42 pm

AnotherOne - - if you haven’t already - - go to Dlisted.com. You won’t have your “anti Brangelunatic” comments deleted. It’s a hell of a lot better than this site. Although on occasion the freaks from here waddle out of their corral and wander over there, but they get their asses kicked!

ok ill go to tomkat thread…..ill be the lucky 13!

Maniston - this looks way cool. It’s too bad I’m such a travel-weenie! Plus…I’ve got this little issue with the out-of-doors. I don’t do it and it doesn’t do me!

One question though - what does one eat on safari? I imagine it’s a little hard to get beef and potatoes out there…cuz…that’s my other thing…I gots to know where my meat came from!

It’s ok, Steamboat Annie puts the moron in oxymoron.
