Brad & Angelina’s Vietnam Adoption

Brad & Angelina’s Vietnam Adoption

US Weekly is reporting that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have filed paperwork with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration services to adopt a boy from the Tam Binh orphanage in Ho Chi Minh City, Vietnam.

Brad and Angie spent Thanksgiving in Vietnam back in November 2006.

The couple have three children — Maddox, 5, Zahara, 2, and Shiloh, 9 months.

Maddox was born in Cambodia, Zahara was born in Ethiopia, and baby Shiloh was born in Namibia.

That is their plan to give Maddox a brother to play with.

Way to go Angie& Brad!

Congrats to them! They werent playing when they said they were going to have a large family

Oh, wait… USWeekly? Hmm give me a more reliable source before i start celebrating…if its true, then congratulations!

Wow!! awesome news!! now Mad has a playmate, Shiloh has both of them to look at I’m sure the next baby will be for Z’s playmate. God Bless Bamzs!

They won’t. Let me tell you why. Cambod-IA, Ethiop-IA, Namib-IA…. Vietn-AM. Not gonna happen.

JJ, I love your site, but are you gonna became like any other site that post every rumour about Brad and Angie? This came from USweekly there’s no reliable source in that story, believe me I bought the magazine.
USWeekly, knows nothing about Brad and Angie for a long time now. Just look their track record.

[Fug Face Maniston] @ 02/22/2007 at 11:23 pm

They sure like to keep busy.

Vo Nguyen Giap @ 02/22/2007 at 11:25 pm

we fought you ******** hard, and this is what we get in return!

True? I don’t know. It would be nice for them.

is this true or not?

last time lainey said she still has to confirm the source.

#8, That’s a funny convo… yeah mean, but funny!

I don’t believe it. We’ll see.

lurker opinion @ 02/22/2007 at 11:28 pm

Lainey and US magazine don’t know what Brad and Angelina are doing. They are just guessing based on the fact that Brad and Angelina have said they want to adopt soon.

Love that photo of Brad and Angie.

What wonderful news! It sounds like their family is growing as quickly as they said it would. And bringing a new little one into the family will help Angie deal with the sadness of her mom’s death.

if it is true good for them,is good to have them while young.i know this chid will be given lots of love

Oh, wait… USWeekly? Hmm give me a more reliable source before i start celebrating…if its true, then congratulations!
+++++++++++
Yeah, the last time US Weekly said that Zahara was a boy, but I wouldn’t be surprised if is true.

US Weekly is repeting what lainey said last month.

lots of bamzs are on the old thread they donot know there is a new one

I think US Weekly finally decided to use Lainey’s materials. Hmmm…… shall we all say — copy cat?

i think that t is fabricated.love them peace

lurker opinion @ 02/22/2007 at 11:32 pm

One more thing if US mag really thought they had a scoop it would be on the cover. US mag cover just notes new photos of Shiloh.

Reposting from the other thread-
US didn’t even bother to edit the lainey info from over a month ago. All they did was add what they said were Vietnam’s adoption regulations, and who knows if and how accurate US was. Said in one part of the article that only Angelina’s name’s would appear on the paperwork as a single woman, but then said in another part of the article that Angelina and Brad had put in the paperwork jointly. Some counties allow both single women and single men and married couples to adopt. Other countries impose age limitations on adoptive parents. I do not know what the rules are in Vietnam. Angelina and Brad have always managed to surprise so we will see. Wasn’t US the tab that said Zahara was a boy?

Thanks Jared but I will that a wait and see attitude. All these rags just repeat the same thing over and over. We all know that Angie and Brad have said they will adopt again so to me there is nothing to report.

Rags will use Angie and Brad to sell their so called mags.

If and when the do adopt the child will be well loved due to both having such a great love for children.

better than the last thread!

i agree, they have been off the radar and making stuff up just to make money since this family makes great news! whatever the truth is, God Bless them!

If true, congratulations to them. Not really buying any tabloid speak though so we’ll see. If true, by the time the new child is brought into their home their youngest will be a year old. Sounds about right (at least a year apart if they want a big family). Good for them!

SAM SAY I JUS VOTED BUT BRAD IS TRAILING,BUT WE ALL KNOW HE AND BECKS ARE NOT ON THE SAME LEVEL

Brad’s at least ten years older than Beck. Brad’s holding his own and looking great.

Thanks Jared for the new thread

I am so not believing anything that comes from US Weekly, when B&A release some kind of statement that is when I will believe, right now this is just a story from a rag

I AM A BIT OF A SUPERSTITIOUS PERSON,INTHE BEGINING OF THE YEAR A CEREBRITY ASTRLOGER WHEN ON ET HE SAID BRAD AND ANGIE WILL HAVE ANOTHERN CHILD .SOME OF THE THINGS HE SAID ARE TRUE LIKE YOUNG HOLLYWOOD STARLETS WILL BE IN MORE TROUBLE.I DONOT KNOW MAY BE I AM TOO SUPERSTITIOUS AND SHOULD NOT BELIEVE THIS KIND OF THING

once in a while @ 02/22/2007 at 11:47 pm

repost:(re Oprah Oscar show)

come out from lurking, just to add:

George said (to Brad): I just want you to know that I thought you looked great when you did not win at the GG. (Julia laughing)

Brad replied: (laughing) thank you man, thank you man, the plastic surgery is fantastic, I mean, you really can’t tell, you really can’t tell

BTW I think the WE is referred to Julia and Brad.

Go back to lurking.

nothing like a bandaid baby to heal a troubled relationship.

If they really will adop a kid soon, I wish they can adop a bit older one. Having all the kids under or around 5 is going to be tough. I’d like to see they spend time with each other as much as with the kids. More quality time they can share between themselves, longer they can commit to each other, being a couple and beat out the usual breakup time frame in Hollyweird, then better for their children, no matter how many kids they desire to have. Isn’t it? I really wish their love can stay and last long long time. But raising kids, especially so many young kids at the same time, it’s tough and will bring a lot pressure.

I just wish the best for Angelina, Brad and their family.

WOW BBT IS ON DAVE LETTERMAN,I HOPE HE DOESNOT SAY A THING ABOUT ANGE

boomstick Says:
And you know that this is a troubled relationship because you are a bedbug living in their bed? Is this the source of your information?

She’s a compulsive child collector. Adoption and having children is nice but she talks and goes about it like she is collecting shoes or more nicely pets. I guess she decided another Asian boy was the right race and gender to shop for to add to her collection. Now she will have another prop to shove in front of the cameras to get herself media attention as “Saint Angelina.” I just wish she, idiot fratboy Pitt and their rainbow troupe would go away. I’m so sick of them. I wish they would move to Namibia permanently and no longer ruin movies with their pathetic acting abilities.

I hate how they talk and act like they are the only ones with children or adopted third world children (it’s all been done before from Josephine Baker to Mia Farrow). And Angie thinks she can buy herself love and cure her mental disorders by buying all these kids, but the crazy is still there. She needs to get some therapy. She’s not a sane or moral woman.

This is funnier than the other clip: http://www.milkfat.com/madjen.htm

Faithinher @ 02/22/2007 at 11:54 pm

I agree with the rest of you about the validity of any story coming from US Weekly. They have a horrible track record. But I could believe Brad & Angie adopting a Vietnamese boy based on what Angie told Diane Sawyer back in December ‘06. She said she and Brad wanted to carefully consider what would be best for the kids. So…having a brother for Mad of the same ethnicity wouldn’t be too unbelievable to me. I guess we’ll find out what’s the truth in a few months.

I’m REALLY glad to be out of the other hellacious ‘Brad and Angei Keeping it Together’ thread, believe me…but since when has US Magazine become the arbiter of TRUTH.

This is the same rag, that started the whole ‘Angelina has fallen from grace because Ryan Seacrest said she was mean at the GG’s and because she called her daughter a blob, and humiliated Maniston in Vogue and other kitchen sink items. US started that whole ball rolling - yet now we’re linking and posting their lies? This week they’re saying Angelina is suffering from depression and is almost anorexic and that Brad doesn’t know what to do to help. This is who we want to drive traffic to now? Janice Min and US - yeah, they’ve been so supportive of this family.

I’m not going to get too upset, because as rumors go, it’s a positive one - and Lord knows, it’s still better than excerpting some negative rag that says Brad and Ange are working through their problems and issues in counseling…but at the end of the day, it is US Ragazine.

They don’t know sh*t.

Brad and Angie have said they would adopt ‘next,’ shortly after Shiloh got here. Brad has been shouting that they were going for a soccer team this entire year. So we already know what’s coming of course - we just don’t know when exactly. It’s not that big a leap to assume they want a little boy close to Mad’s age, nor is it a leap that the child will be asian, I think that’s important to them for Mad - Angie talked about that at length too. So all these rags have to do is keep printing adoption stories and sooner or later they’re bound to be right, just based on what Brad and Angelina have already said themselves.

But US mag? Come on.

Thanks for the new thread Jared. A welcome change from the other one.

Wonderful news if true. This child would surely be blessed to become part of this amazing, loving, and beautiful family. IMO it’s better to have the children close in age as they all enjoy growing up together. Coming from a family of 9, and my own 3 being close in age, I say “go for it Brad and Angie!”

Ace Tomato @ 02/22/2007 at 11:58 pm

Why would Brad Pitt or Angelina Jolie need to adopt a baby to get media attention? Are you kdding me? Just being a couple will do it for the next decade. They don’t even have to do films and they’ll get media attention.

They are both extremely good looking, A-list actors. They don’t need to “do” much to get media attention. If they can get a picture of Angelina Jolie picking up her morning newspaper they’ll make money from it.

God you AJ haters are thick as bricks sometimes.

(okay, all the time.)

ida Says:
BBT is pushing his new movie. He’s been all over the place the last couple of weeks. He makes a lot of movies because he says he never got big paychecks and he has child support to pay. I believe that he also supports his ex wife Petra who is the mother of his two boys and who is ill. Isn’t he supposed to make a movie with Brad’s Plan B or is that just a rumor?

IGNORE BOOM-CRAP!!!

Oh Brother you are so sick of them.. Yet you clicked on their thread. Are you lost? Were you looking for the Britney thread?

Thanks Jared.

Three’s a crowd, but it’s not enough for Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.

The sexy actor revealed at the Palm Springs International Film Festival that he and Jolie are planning on expanding their brood, adding adopted and biological brothers and sisters for their three young children.

The superstar couple, who met while filming “Mr. And Mrs. Smith”, are currently doting parents to Maddox, 5, Zahara, 2 and Shiloh, 7 months.

When asked about his baby plans, Pitt said, “Always, of course. We’ll let you know when we get there.”

The Golden Globe nominee for “Babel” is now getting his family ready to move again - something they are used to - and setting up a temporary base in New Orleans while he films “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.”

Of the hurricane ravaged city, he said, “I do like it there. It’s one of our most unique cities and it certainly needs some help right now. I know it will do fine, and the people are just fantastic.”

Jolie, meanwhile, has seconded Pitt’s plans for a large family.

“The Good Shepherd” star revealed, “We definitely want a very big family. It might seem crazy to build it so quickly. But if we’re going to have 10 kids, we’d like to raise them while we’re young.”

The stunning actress also praised her partner’s parenting skills, saying, “What I wanted was to find somebody who, first and foremost, was a great father, because I was already a parent. Yes, I needed somebody who cared about the issues. But it’s not just that Brad will travel and he loves kids. He’s a thoughtful, intelligent man.”

I love them. If they want a big family, good for them. I will support them 101%

When and if BP and AJ adopt or announce a pregnancy, it won’t come via US weekly but rather People Magazine. US weekly is putting together rumors, sources and clues to stay “in the know” in regards to the Jolie-Pitts. They may be on the right track, but it is not by some first hand knowledge.
US Weekly pretended to have this exclusive about BAMZS relocating to New Orleans when the whole Internet knew. You got to love these tabs. BP and AJ have practically banned them from any news or press event, yet they pretend to have this deep connection with them. US weeky pretty much spearheaded the so called backlash towards AJ, now they are trying to play nicey nice, until the next attack. Whatever. Maybe they should go back to their plastic surgery stories and non-breakup/engagement stories regarding a famous Ex. At least they got those stories somewhat right. Whenever BP and AJ add a new addition to their family, you can rest assured that the child will be loved and embraced within their household. I wish them all the best.

i hope their family continues to be filles with love

Brad says he will let us know when they get there, so until we hear from Brad, US weekly is just exploiting.

MF………..how ya doin’ babe!

i bought alot of mags before,but now the only mag i buy is people because the confirm stories before printing

#69, Truth — sorry to disappoint, but that article played fast and loose and fabricated some of those quotes. Or was this lost in translation?

In other words, it sounds good - but AJ and BP didn’t say those quotes as written. Where’s that article from anyway? It’s chopped up and a mish-mash, they’ve changed the quotes around that Brad and Angie did say, for instance, Angelina never said the following:

The Good Shepherd” star revealed, “We definitely want a very big family. It might seem crazy to build it so quickly. But if we’re going to have 10 kids, we’d like to raise them while we’re young.”

What she said was this in an interview promoting TGS shortly before Christmas:

If we plan to have a very large family, we shouldn’t stretch it out over the next 10 years or else we’ll be raising kids forever. So we’ve thought about it. I am sure we won’t wait forever to build our family.

So will you adopt again sooner than later?

I think so, yeah.

Just thinking-There was that blurb in the NTDaily News that Brad and Angelina went shopping in NOLA and spendt $6000 in John Goodman’s wife’s upscale children’s store on furniture (all children’s stuff). I know, take that with a grain of salt, but I do remember stories that Angelina had gone shopping in London for baby stuff about a month or so before they got Zee (all the rumors were that she was pregnant). So if Lainey’s info (that was copied by US) is somewhat accurate and a timeline of 5 months or so is correct as Lainey said that Angelina and Brad did not request any special treatment adoption wise, a new Jolie-Pitt may show up around Shiloh’s first birthday. Notice that I said MAY, because these two are full of surprises. This is why the tabs are so frustrated with them because who knows what they might do.

Hi anustin, #80…where do you live? Are you from the U.S. or elsewhere?

Hi ida, just saying Hi to you. Are you in Africa?

Hey, Cliniqua, what is the buzz about the Academy Awards? Do you suppose Brad and Ange will be there, will present, maybe? I will be very surprised if they do. I think they are wise to stay away for a while, but I am torn because I would so love to see them…

Why is it that the papparazzi leave them alone in New Orleans? Is it because they just don’t live down there? They all live in a colony on LA? I am happy, but puzzled. However, they never ever get photographed while in Missouri, come to think of it, so it must be that they are just too far away! There, that was easy…Good Night Fans. Be good!

#83 addicted…..sus kataas pud ning imong name oi!i’m from montreal!

from lainey 1/25/07

In regards to that trip to Vietnam – Angelina took Maddox for a series of meetings about the Maddox Chivan Project last week and although they’ve “officially” denied initiating adoption proceedings, I’ve received a couple of (as yet unconfirmed) tips from new sources there who insist that paperwork was indeed submitted and filed with the US Consulate in HCM City for a fourth child that the Pitts supposedly met and fell in love with during their trip to the country together several week ago. For what it’s worth, said sources claim that they saw the documents with their very own eyes and that the process should be complete before summer – standard procedure they say and notable because they apparently all expected the Hollywood Pitts to ask for exceptions and were stunned when they didn’t.

As I said before, still working to lock this down, let you know when I do.

^^^^^^^^^^
lainey’s article was dated 1/25/07, today is 2/22/07. it’s a month, and as of now, lainey still has NOTconfirmed the sources. does it take that long to confirm.?

my take on this —brad and angie made no secret to adopt. we all knew they visited the viet nam and indian orphanage. they did not visit panama nor costa rica orphanage when they were there. we know india is harder to adopt because i think you have to live in india for a couple years. therefore, it is reasonable to assume the adoption place must be viet nam. Any detective will say the same thing.

So for lainey, all she has to do is STAKE HER CLAIM early (claiming an adption is going on) even she has no confirmed sources. she is hoping may be as time goes on, more data will surface, and when the final adoption comes in, she will gloat about it.

WHY IS IT THAT SHE STILL HASNT BEEN ABLE TO LOCK DOWN HER SOURCE???? it is almost a month already.

OMG…am I late with this? This child is soooo stunning, I’ve never seen eyes that color before. Is that trick photography or enhancement? If they’re real…just wow. They almost look back-lit or something..blue w/ silver flecks.

Anyway, Shiloh is stunning child. I think it’ll be an older child too if they decide to adopt. As to the when, its hard to define what she means “as yeah, sooner than later” in a 10 year time frame. It could this year or when Shiloh turns 2 to give a 3 yr gap. Who knows…

Didnt us mag say angie was NOT pregnant? us mag was the ONLY mag that week saying angie was not pregnant. one week later, angie announced pregnancy in hati.

Just finished watching the George/Julia segment. I really didn’t care much about what they say. I only paid attention to G’s Hollywood Hills house. So cosy.

http://english.vietnamnet.vn/lifestyle/2007/01/655668/

on that oprah pre-oscar program, was brad’s “we” referring to brad and angie or brad and julie?

angie also knows clooney, so it’s possible that brad called at home. and before brad called, angie and brad were talking about clooney. may be that’s what brad meant when he said “we” (we as in brad and angie)

lurker opinion- #108

following your link, the newspaper said “the couple”. but it was only angie who went. so how good is the paper??

per your link…..The couple arrived in HCM City on January 19. This is the second trip of Mr and Mrs Smith to Vietnam. ……

I didn’t watch the Oprah thing! I am surprised to see Brad participating in something of Oprah’s considering her strong allegiance to ***.

Brad gives secret shout out to Jennifer Aniston on Oprah Oscar show!

Brad replied: (laughing) thank you man, thank you man, the plastic surgery is fantastic, I mean, you really can’t tell, you really can’t tell.

It was his way of telling his ex, nice nip & tuck but you still suck — say friends of the movie star.

=========

Did he really mention the plastic surgery stuff ? everybody knew his ex just had them. and at Oprah’s, show of the minivan majority ? great revenge Brad! Go Brad go!!!

I hope nothing ever happens to AJ poor Brad would be stuck raising all those kids. Shiloh no problem, but the others would require that much more work. Her comments in Vogue bugged me about how they are legally bound to the children but not each other if something ever happened the responsibility would fall on his shoulders, she goes out her way to publicly regard her children, Brad gets the cold shoulder or seems to come last as if the children matter and he’s just her helper.

Don’t worry. You better worry about yourself because you have brain problem.

I just saw Ryan Gosling interviewed on Nightline. My first time watching him. He is so genuinely humble for his age. It’s just such a pleasure to watch him. They talked about the film he is doing on his own about child soldiers in Africa. So young and yet so socially aware. I am very impressed.

It’s Friday, PT. ;) ;)

now they’re just being a little unrealistic about having children. i mean, angelina admits that they wouldn’t be able to handle their current life (between the children, work, and volunteering) without support (i.e. nannies, personal assistants). it’s worrisome that each child of theirs is not only being shuttled from place to place but doesn’t get to have their own individual time to grow, adjust, and just be the baby of the family. with angelina’s admittal comes the obvious question: are they growing a family too quickly, only to leave their children feeling unrooted, rushed, and to be raised by their nanny while mommy and daddy try to conquer the world??

peg Says:

Just like the tabloid, pick up some words you want to heard, twisted it and sensationalized it. Angie was telling the whole world how she loved Brad, Brad is her love, a great person, a great dad, her closest person, she had great faith and respect for Brad, Brad make her life more harmonious…….etc those were some words taken in her latest interview. Wasn’t that enough?

Well, damn! I had 2 go out so I set my VCR 2 tape Oprah’s pre-Oscar show & of course the worst thing happened… Came home ready to watch & discovered the tape had broken! Don’t know how it happened… Oh well, I can’t do anything except read through the posts here to find out what happened. I really would have liked to see GC’s face when Brad 1-upped GC’s “…you looked great when you did not win at the GG.” with the “plastic surgery so good it doesn’t show” comment. Those 2 are such joker’s with each other that it kinda reminds me some classic (Dean) Martin & (Jerry) Lewis routines.

I hope someone taped the segment & will create a YouTube video. Of course, that won’t help me since Google bought YouTube, I can’t download vids I like or use links posted 2 view them. I used 2 be able 2 email the link 2 myself & save them on my computer with the “share video” feature, but that no longer works… What gives? And can someone help me, please?

Gracious thanks in advance!

Angelina in Mourning, Drops to 109 Pounds
Wednesday February 21, 2007

Life in the Big Easy has had its challenges for Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt since they moved to New Orleans in January. Ever since Jolie’s mother, actress Marcheline Bertrand, died of cancer last month, the star just hasn’t been the same, sources say.

Jolie’s emotional distress has resulted in a noticeable weight loss. The 5-foot-8 star now weighs 109 pounds, says a source close to the couple. “She isn’t eating.”

Jolie, 31, is also “very lonely and desperate to make new friends,” the source tells Us.

For now, she has been importing a support system by flying in old childhood friends from LA.

The source adds: “Brad has been worried about her day and night. She has been under so much stress, and Brad is trying to be understanding.”

LIVING IN THE MOMENT

The Times-Picayune
February 23, 2007

Lauren Swinney has led — and is still leading — an extraordinary life.

Sunday, the day she turns 85, she will star in her own one-woman show, “The Empress of Louisiana,” a celebration of the life of her daughter, Holly Bernheisel.

Swinney is a superb stage actress, seen memorably here as Lyla, “The Lady of the Lamps,” in “Talking With . . . ” at True Brew Theater; as the haunted, funny, radiant Bella at Southern Rep in a rare production of Tennessee Williams’ last completed play, “A House Not Meant to Stand;” and as one of Diana Shortes’ “Women of the Storm.” She now has an agent and is doing commercials and movies. In her latest, small film role, she will appear opposite Brad Pitt, in the screen version of F. Scott Fitzgerald’s short story, “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,” which has been filming here.

“He is such a normal and natural young man,” Swinney said of Pitt. “But a bit mischievous, too. He introduced me to the director (David Fincher, who directed Pitt in “Seven” and “Fight Club”) and said, ‘You have to watch out for him!’

“We were filming in a freezing house in January, and he took off his gloves to shake hands, and I enjoyed that touch, that moment of contact, very much. He made sure I met everyone on the set and put everyone at ease.

“They treated me like a queen. I had my own trailer with my name on it, and the food was so good. When I complimented the berry cobbler, the chef came out and prepared some for me to take home. Really, it was one of the best days of my life,” Swinney said.

creativegirl @ 02/23/2007 at 6:52 am

Gosh, I’m so mad at myself for missing the Oscar show. For some reason I thought it was tonight. I wanted to see Julia and George and now I find out I miss Brad. UGH!

I tend to believe the adoption story, Shiloh will be 1 in a few months and they may even adopt an older child. It makes sense since they were there and didn’t Angie go back on her own recently? Or was that false? I can’t keep up lately.

I think this rumor is true. I have friends who were at this orphanage picking up their little guy just last month. No one saw Brad and Angie, but the facilitators talk amongst themselves (this orphanage works with a lot of agencies) and the rumor was all abuzz. I didn’t say anything here because every time you adopt you don’t want to make it a big deal until it is FINISHED, cuz so much can go wrong or get delayed. Look at the media circus that was Madge and David. Adoption gods, please make it go fast for them and please don’t let anyone find out when they are traveling to get their new boy!!!

Someone posted this on page one:

The Phone Rings
Julia Says “Oh is that your girlfriend calling? I’m gonna pick it up” she picks it up.
Brad says “Hello Julia”
George says “Who is that? Is that your husband?”
Julia is not sure but she is laughing.
Brad says “Julia, it’s Brad. Don’t ask him about the Oscar thing. Ask him what is like being the sexiest man alive. He like to talk about that”
Julia laughs, puts it on speaker phone and tells George “It’s Brad”
George leans in and says “Brad?”
Brad replies “Hey George, WE (as in Julia and Brad) were just talking about you. Tell us what is it like being a two time sexiest man”

And it continues from there. The point is, clearly in the context they were talking in, Brad’s WE = Julia and Brad.

good morning all!haha!angie is prego!what a life to the fanistonz to deal.

ok,i dont think its true is it i mean its from us weekly.but ifit is thats great ad i like the way they mentioned their 3 children without considering them to be adopted or biological :)

Hmm, something went wrong with my moniker and e-mail, and my posts disappeared. Now I’m tired too type everything again, so all i say is that I would love to see them at the Oscars. It will be a refreshment after the freakshow TC/KH and the Beckhams are going to stage. But I don’t want them to do the red carpet, enough of these idiots like Ryan Seacrest.

Thanks bluemoon for posting that nice article! Everybody who meets them in person praises them. It’s a sweet story, and true.

dragonfly @ 02/23/2007 at 8:26 am

I thought it was already understood around here that tabloid stories don’t count for anything, yet we still have to keep reminding and educating people who insist on copying and posting them here.

NEWS FLASH for those of you jumping on the bandwagon: This is a tabloid story.

Most of us have the good sense not to believe these fictitous plays that were born in some dingy office cubicle in LA.

And that goes for the “too skinny” stories and the “relationship problems” stories, too. There is no evidence that these two are any more than happy and content with the life they have made for themselves. Their children look happy and well-taken care of. They are just going about the normal business of being a family. There is no scandalous dramatic story for tabs to feed off, so they make up stuff or “predict” stuff based on things that are already public domain.

Tabs know that if they keep predicting that Brad and Angie are adopting sooner or later they will get it right, because B&A have both said they will adopt again. Then they can blow their own horn and tout how they were “right”. Forget that they got it wrong about 764 times before, that doesn’t matter, lol!

The biggest eyerollers here are the stupid people who are already condemning them for adopting too soon, saying their relationship can’t handle it, etc… PUH-LEEZE!! haha!! Angie said out of her own mouth in December that another adoption “wouldn’t be any time soon”, but jeez, I guess that doesn’t matter since that paragon of journalism US Magazine said it was so, it must be true, right?

You have to be dumb as a rotten stump to believe tabs.

Wow, another film for Plan B! Thanks to simply.brad.

US Weekly is a month late to report the “news”.

This rumor started about a month ago when Angie went to Vietnam for a meeting on behalf of the Maddox Jolie-Pitt Project and the Vietnam papers assumed that she was there to do paper work for a new adoption.

People mag putted a retraction and said that Angie wasn’t there for another adoption.

Both Brad and Angie have stated in their interviews that they will certainly expand their family and they will adopt next but they have never specified when and from what place. And even if they are really about to adopt there is no chance in hell that we would have heard anything about it until the child was already adopted. Just like we didn’t know anything about Z until she was already adopted. So nobody is able to know anything let alone Us Weekly. So everybody is free to speculate anything since they don’t know anything.

Until I hear a statement of them or a confirmation from People mag I will not hold my breath.

My guess is that they will fill for another adoption after Shiloh will be one year old. Right now Brad is filming a movie witch is having three more months of shooting at least. I think that they will prefer to do it after the end of the filming so they will have the time to look at the details and organise everything carefully. And I also think that their next child will be a boy.

But whatever they will decide to do at the end more power to them.

Hi all - I just wanted to say that Maddox goes to school with my son, and AJ picks him up HERSELF. She doesn’t just send someone out to do it. I bumped into her in the hall last week and she was heading for the kindergarten door, just like everyone else. She had one, very very nice man with her who didn’t look or act like a bodyguard at all. We in New Orleans wish them the best.

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

If you’re referring to the ET/Insider astrologer, yes, he said that another child was on the way for Brad and Angelina, but he also said that Nicole Richie was the young HW player who would tremendous personal problems.

Wow the Zebra murders is going to be an intense movie! this is what I found.

The Zebra murders were a number of connected murders performed by a black supremacist serial killer ring that took place in San Francisco, California in 1973 and 1974 and left 15 people dead and from eight (Howard) to ten (additions by Scheeres, Crime Library, and Cohen and Sanders) wounded. They were dubbed “the Zebra murders” because of the radio channel used by the San Francisco Police (”Z”)
The Zebra murders were the work of the Death Angels, a group within the extremist black nationalist group, the Nation of Islam. According to the NOI’s beliefs, the white race was created by a black mad scientist named Yakub, who, some say, wanted a race of inferiors to rule over. Furthermore, the Death Angels believed that they could earn “points” towards Paradise when they died if they killed as many whites as possible. The NOI’s teachings presented whites not as human beings, but variously as “blue-eyed devils,” “white devils,” and “grafted snakes.”

Candidates would be invited to secret meetings at the NOI-owned Black Self-Help Moving and Storage; to attain the status of Death Angel, each man was expected to kill either nine white men, five white women or four white children. After attaining this goal, a pair of black wings would be attached to his photograph and pinned up in an upstairs room of the self-help building. Although killing was their main goal, death angel candidates would often use machetes to torture victims over long periods, and some women were also the victims of rape.

Poor Brad wouldn’t be stuck with his kids. He is a parent and as a father I don’t think he would feel stuck with his children. They are his he would raise them just like any other single parent. To flip this if something happened to Brad as of now Angie would have 3 children to raise as a single mother and she would raise them just like a host of other single parents do. Why is Shiloh not a problem but the rest would be? I don’t understand that comment. Shiloh is a child and so are Mad and Z. I don’t get how Shiloh would be some type of exception.

Steven Speilberg and his wife Kate have a LOT of children. In fact when she was pregnant they adopted a baby, so she had 2 babies at once. She says when Steven is filming they pack up the family and go. It isn’t a foreign thing. Children need love and the experience of seeing the world can be a good one. My husband is military, I don’t see how the moving around is any different than what millions of military families do everyday.

I don’t know that much about how Maddox likes his class, but he has a REALLY cool teacher that all of the other boys in the school love. My son and Maddox know each other, because they have P.E., and choir…and something else together everyday and that is all I know. He didn’t get to come to the school Mardi Gras parade last week, but I can see why Brad and Angie wouldn’t want to come and stand in a crowd of parents like that. It is a beautiful little school, and we just hope that they stay.

Jennifer - I agree, I wouldn’t put yourself in any situation to answer questions like that from anyone. As much as we would all love to grill you for details, they deserve their privacy just like everyone else.

And to all those who say that its too early for Brad & Angie to adopt, you don’t know what the heck you are talking about and must not have any kids of your own.

Anyone who does knows that its better to stay in the thick of it (diapers and all the stuff that comes along with little ones) while you are in it and living it. Mine are tweens now and I couldn’t even begin to imagine going back to changing diapers and all that stuff once you are so far removed from it. So it stands to reason that if they are planning to have a certain number of kids, then its not unusual to have them close together. They certainly wouldn’t be the first couple to have four kids 5 and under and they won’t be the last. We don’t even know if they would perhaps adopt an older child. Z will probably start getting potty trained if she hasn’t already and then they would have Shiloh and a new baby in diapers which makes things a little easier.

Everyone who is so critical and judgemental forgets, they are not so different from anyone else who wants/has a large family, except for the fact that they can afford to have the kind of help that allows them to have a big family, whereas many do not. Angie freely admitted that on AC 360 when she was on. But it also goes to show what great parents they must be in that they can afford to have help, yet we see them out doing things with their kids all the time. It’s obvious to any bozo that family and their kids come first (unlike some celeb parents we see).

Anyway - it just proves that the haters will be haters just because and will pick at anything just because it gives them some kind of freakish satisfaction. The rest of us know better and again - I implore us all to just IGNORE.

Passing Through @ 02/23/2007 at 9:49 am

This is lame. Brad and Angelina are lame.

What a way to grieve for your mother, Angie, go out and buy more foreign babies that you can “feel for” more than your natural born daughter. And Brad is so whipped that he just goes along and does whatever.

amena says.i am fine,i have missed you,hope u are ok

morning BAMZS fans! i wasn’t online last night….new thread:) hehehe. oh, i won’t believe in anything yet, until i hear from brad’s publicist and/or angie/brad.

amena says hello how u doing

Lynn Campbell @ 02/23/2007 at 10:05 am

I have always thought their next adoption would be from Namibia so all four children would have a common bond. I don’t know the adoption laws in Namibia, though, so maybe it isn’t even a possibility. They are supposedly heading back there maybe later in the year, according to some reports.
++++++++++++++++++++++

I am hoping there are some posters on here who are knowledgable about red carpet protocol and can fill those of us in (like me) who are clueless lol. I am guessing that if you are nominated for an award you are expected to stop and talk to all the entertainment shows and give them an interview. It just seems like this would be part of your job as being nominated. I’m not sure, though, if you are a presenter or just there to support a movie if this is still expected of you, or can you come in the back door, so to speak, and just avoid the red carpet and interviews all together. Just curious in case Brad or Brad/Angie show up. :)

Is’nt it funny that all those astrologers,not even one of them predicted the death of Angelina’s mom.The person who was very important to her life,the person who has been with her for her 31 years but they did’nt see it coming.
All they see is to do with Brad,surely those who believed them should get their money back because all they were fed by those astrologers was tabloid stories

hi amena gotta start gettin ready for work

That exchange between Clooney and Brad made me crush on Brad even more. Brad took Clooney’s jabs like a champ.

lynne cambell says i doubt they will attend

LynnCampbell-
I will try my best to answer your question. If you are nominated you are “expected” to walk the red carpert”, but you don’t have to . You can decide whatever you want, but yes, the media and fans expect it. However, anyone going can walk the red carpet. Alot of BIG stars just decide to not walk it and go in another way, but it usually dissapoints the fans and the studio they woek with. As you have seen , the Red carpet can be a non-stop nightmare. I think BP will go to the Oscars but not AJ and he will jsut sneek in. IMO

Wow, this story is sure to revive that CLINIQUA chick to new life. Just a few days ago, she was on the virge of a nervous breakdown, after reading Jared’s post about Pitt/Jolie attending relationship counseling. I can recall her words as “being depressed.”

Hallelujah, you can now return to your regular life Cliniqua, as this couple that has nothing to do with your life, is now said to be adopting.

Totally agree with you. Children need a somewhat stable environment and that includes a place to call home. They haven’t even been together an entire 2 years and yet they’re seeking their 4th child? How about a compromise people, a child for every year that you’re together? Sounds fair enough.

Don’t be mad, it’s your ridiculous comments about being depressed and on the virge of a nervous breakdown that are utterly disturbing. While others surf the gossip rags, you’re doing the same, only taking it to heart and relating it to your own life and letting it affect you. Obssessed, no. Concerned for this persons well being, yes. Did I know that she was a middle aged black woman? Nope, and I couldn’t care less of her age or race…it’s time to put the crack pipe down lady, only your addiction is to Brad/Angie.

It’s interesting that there are those suggesting that Brad and Angelina have one child for each year that there are together. But what if Angelina gave birth to multiples, like twins or triplets? Would that suggestion still apply? Would that mean that Brad and Angelina would send the other twin or two remaining triplets to family members like Doug and or Julie while everyone ‘adjusts’.

Anybody who read your post has to be embarrassed for you.

No offense to “Jennifer” from New Orleans, but I remain and will always be skeptical of anyone showing up here with so-called insider info. I just have a gut instinct that anyone who might really be in a situation to have their child in school with Maddox would not want to compromise Maddox’s and certainly not their own child’s safety by posting information on an open blog. It just seems a bit “off” to me.

I am sure the school has probably communicated the importance of discretion to all the parents, especially Maddox’s classmates’ parents, of communicating with any type of celebrity media.

Jennifer, I am sure you understand. If you wish to participate in discussions, hey, that’s great, new posters are always welcome, let’s chat. I’m always up for that and certainly won’t be rude to you, just don’t get your feelings hurt that some of us don’t buy into your claims, especially with you showing up right on the heels of Bendedict [sic] Arnold.

well….i dont think angie would give up her children to a family member shes so in love with her kids to give them up!!! and that would be funny if they had triplets that would make them have 6 kids in 3 years hahah funny

I hope nothing ever happens to AJ poor Brad would be stuck raising all those kids. Shiloh no problem, but the others would require that much more work.

Poor Brad wouldn’t be stuck with his kids. He is a parent and as a father I don’t think he would feel stuck with his children. They are his he would raise them just like any other single parent. To flip this if something happened to Brad as of now Angie would have 3 children to raise as a single mother and she would raise them just like a host of other single parents do. Why is Shiloh not a problem but the rest would be? I don’t understand that comment. Shiloh is a child and so are Mad and Z. I don’t get how Shiloh would be some type of exception.

====================================

Thank You, I is so ignorant when people say things like Brad one day will be left to raise the kids by himself, That is what would happen with any other family if something happend to one of the parents, why should it be any different for Brad and Ang.

Haters are running out of ideas. When I have already read many other interviews where Brad is talking about his work and his family and it’s obvious that he is a good ,decent, humble and thoughtful man and yet all they can up come with is phone interview which the main purpose was to be humours and entertaining and not take it seriously between three actors that made jokes with each other and they have worked three times and they had a blast while working together. And that is why I should be embarrassed of him??

There must be something about Brad, Angelina and the possibility of adoption that makes haters turn ‘Linda Blair’ on BAMZS threads.

Why is it that they need the “biological is better’ validation in order to function?

Probably if they only had bio kids and angelina was getting pregnat constantly in a short time (ala Heidi Klum or Kelly Ripa) a lot of people wouldn’t care as much. But since they are adopting people freaks out and start with the name calling.

Yes, I see we agree on this. Like I said, I am sure all the parents of the school children in NO have been warned against doing this very thing “Jennifer” has done.

There are some sick freaks out there, and of course information here can be viewed by anybody. The school wants to ensure the safety of all the children, and I can’t see one of the parents in that community taking the risk of paps showing up hiding in the bushes like what happened in LA at Maddox’s school there. If it was me, I certainly wouldn’t want my child caught up in that, and I would not contribute to the possibility of it happening in any way.

the mentioning of plastic surgery was an insult to fanistons which brad really wwasnt commenting on her he was really talking about goerge clooney!!i guess aniston was insulted even though that comment wasnt about her so brad really isnt the one to be ambarressed but aniston should be the one to be ambarassed since he was saying plastic sugeries are a creep

not sure what everyone thinks as i was watching the interview with julia and GC. i felt as if Oprah didn’t seem to care about bringing up brad’s name during the interview! is the woman (oprah) taking side with maniston and still hating for brad????? just my opinion and thought it was weird not to mention brad’s name at all even AFTER brad called……..

I donot have the same opinin , JoliePitt. If OPRah had issues with Brad , he would not have been able to call in while taping. Brad’s call was prearranged and approved by OPrah IMO.

people have a problem with it because B&A are so self righteous about adopting and because Angelina is a freak who happens to love her adopted children more than her biological daughter.

She’s WIERD, people. Why the rush to adopt another child? Oh, because the “unfelt” for one isn’t even a year old yet, but she can handle it because her mother “feels” for these Vietnamese orphans more than she does for her and Maddox needs a playmate.

The school, however, is actually trying to rpetend that they aren’t there at all rather than telling parents and asking us to act accordingly. I would never sacrifice my son’t or anyone else’s safety to post - I am just really excited to have them there and wanted to share a little of that and defend who I think is a parent trying really hard to live a somewhat normal life. I probably shouldn’t have posted. Thanks everyone. I will continue to lurk.

Earlier in the segment, George Clooney had jokingly said that he (George) had his eyes done…..and he proceeded to open his eyes wide as to bring attention to them. Brad was referring to this plastic surgery, when he says that you really can’t tell. We don’t know if Clooney was joking, and Pitt went along with it, or if it is really true. These two joke on each other….Brad joked on Clooney on the GG red carpet w/ Shaun Robinson, causing Angie to laugh.

I think folks are mad that Brad & Angie are enlarging their family because with each child it means they are more solid as a family. The tabs originally wrote these two as a fling that wouldn’t last and now some two years and three kids late the haters are still thinking this.

Susie, I just don’t like it when they separate the cast like that. With Jim, Michael, and Dwight…they were at a party with dull people. Although I did like how Jan said, “That’s what she said” then she was shocked that it came from her :lol:

What happened to Toby’s hot date from Phyllis’s wedding? :shock: He seemed happy to be with her. And how about Kevin snapping at Pam for asking about Stacy? Even when he’s angry Kevin still makes me giggle.

I don’t know about Oprah’s motivations for allowing Brad to call in; but you can construe it as her circumventing the ’system’ aka placating to her delusional princesses, by featuring Brad in that context. It’s similar to the way VF used that still for their cover.

Mind you, I can totally see Oprah milking this on her aftershow, using parts that weren’t in the special. Of course, it would depend on the content.

The school, however, is actually trying to rpetend that they aren’t there at all rather than telling parents and asking us to act accordingly. I would never sacrifice my son’t or anyone else’s safety to post - I am just really excited to have them there and wanted to share a little of that and defend who I think is a parent trying really hard to live a somewhat normal life. I probably shouldn’t have posted. Thanks everyone. I will continue to lurk.

Best wishes,
Jennifer

Don’t be too quick to pat Lainey on the back.

She also said that this was due to happen prior to the Oscar announcement and she applied that it was a tactical move to position Brad in a better light.

Semi-NEW THREAD about the Clooney/Roberts/Brad call.

Go post nice comments there before the haters arrive!, but then come back here & keep this as the main thread.

Too too funny!!! You know X and Huvane would spin this FOR X if they could. I could picture the brainstorming sessions now .. How could we spin this so Brad comes off as being insensitive and Jennifer again comes off as pitiful so her minions could feel sorry for her again and have another reason why she would be in the “news”!!! LOL!

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

They can’t spin this because as I said in my post above, George had said he had his eyes done when Julia asked him a question. I Tivoed the show, and there is no way Brad was refering to Jen A. Huvane & co will look like fools trying to get some traction for their client by using Brad’s comments.

You’re right. I am 68, divorced and lonely here in Chicago and just wanted to find some friends by claiming to have information about two of the worlds biggest stars. It was pathetic, you caught me, I apologize.

I guess we don’t have to go to the tabloids to read unsubstantiated rumors we can com right her to jj. US weekly? come on! People magazine maybe, but short of a copy of the adoption papers, why should we believe US weekly?

oh, oprah is the richest in the entertainment business and she can do whatever she wants just about! i don’t think what we say or do is going to scratch her a bit. she definitely has done good stuff, especially for africa. i wish oprah would not just focus on africa only, but also lend a helping hand to other third-world countries. i think that is why i am more for angie as she not only focus on africa, but she sees the need to help other countries as well. i mean, everywhere help is needed and not just africa. oprah can’t save the whole africa and angie can’t help every countries, but both should spread the help everywhere, which angie is doing!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

I sort of agree w/ you…..somewhat that Oprah is okay. I believe she’s trying to pave the way for Brad to eventually make an appearance on her show. Whether it will be with a studio audience or a sit down…..we can’t rule it out. Oprah has sent out a few olive branches….she spoke approvingly of Brad & Angelina adopting children, and their family being a “little united nations” reflecting the world, and now last nights phone call from Brad on her Oscar show segment.

Oprah is a business woman who is well aware of the growing powerful clout that Brad & his company Plan B are playing in the Hollywood landscape. She has no choice but to open her eyes and see what is real……Brad & Angelina are the real deal…

jennifer, thank you for sharing the story! i do feel that you have good intentions based on your blogs. however, it’s a little hard for the fans to accept since it’s online and anyone come up with anything.

wow! it must be a small school probably 50 students or less? just my opinion since there’s tight security and can’t walk by the school w/o being ID.

See - now I am going to answer and be called a liar some more. It is a tiny school -less than 100 on two campuses. They don’t take non-French speakers after Kindergarten because it is full immersion and they would never catch up. This means the upper grades are really small, especially after Katrina.

Kiki and Julia - I get it - I just wish I had thought before that first post : ) I would not believe me either! - my sister and husband are just tired of me going on about them and I wanted to talk about them some more (again, without endangering kids).

Mrs. Lenny @ 02/23/2007 at 12:46 pm

#286 Jolie Pitt~ I am for both of them. I think Oprah does more for Africa. But is not limited to just Africa. I am originally from Mississippi and know for a fact that she is doing wonders for that state,which is the pooorest state in the union,but give more to charity than other states. She is starting a School for girls there aswell.
Folk are always dragging Angie through the mud for all she does, and where she does it. You can’t please all the people all the time. But,I betcha t both of them feel good about what they do and will not faint or falter when it come to extending goodwill to the people in need.

NYCGnVA# 290~You are absolutely right. Everything you said is on point. At least she can open her eyes. Unlike some people. She is a bussiness Woman,and is smart enough to not play the fool. Bussiness is Bussiness. Brad is a bussiness man aswell,he is not a fool either. They both can do this without each other,but you are right. Bussiness is Bussiness. They both wield alot of power. Brad is smart enough to know that O is just as Savvy as he and has built her empire,he is building his.

304 says,ange and brad want their kids to know different languages.so therefore i think madd may be able to speak french,and the school is a bilingual school

Mrs. Lenny @ 02/23/2007 at 12:55 pm

I mean business. Not bussiness

i can’t believe people buy that oprah is friends with jen, there is a big difference between being friendly with someone and actually being friends. So she had her over her house and scored an interview, it’s the entertainment business and jen was in high demand. Brad’s call was definately prearranged because it was taped and he obviously knew about the interview. not everyone has to like brad and angie and i doubt they really care.

P.S: So what if oprah is so invested in Africa, she can do whatever she wants with the money she has earned. she is obviously very emotionally attached to africa and is following her heart. Plus she gives to other causes as well. some people adopt orphans others build schools. There is no wrong way to get involved.

i just don’t buy this bash oprah because she had jen on her show . . . blah, it’s just show biz

I would love for Angelina to do an Interview with Oprah. I think that would be an interesting show.

It would be interesting to see what shows she does to promote AMH, I hope she does an interview with Ellen.

i can see angelina going on oprah to promote AMH with Marianne. that way it wouldn’t be too superficial, and i think its an opportunity where oprah would really focus on the life and story of Daniel not about their personal life, and Angelina would be open to talk. Plus Oprah loves having people on to promote movies

I wish them all the best. I believe they are great dedicate parents who will make all their children very very happy. :)

I think it sounds like a great idea in theory, but Oprah does have a precedent for being a bit snarky about Angie and Brad. I would hope Oprah wouldn’t use it as a chance to be less than kind to Angie.

I hope Angie stays clear of Oprah and her target audience, who, for the most part, are tab readers that don’t “get” Angie. Angie has many other outlets for promoting projects.

Enquirer Eager to Prove Aniston a Cokehead

FRIEND NOT FIEND AnistonJennifer Aniston better keep her friends close, unless she wants to find herself on the front page of the National Enquirer. The tabloid recently offered a woman $20,000 in an effort to prove the former sitcom sweetheart is a cocaine user, according to sources.
The Enquirer’s interest began with a January 25 blind item in the New York Daily News’ “Gatecrasher” column. “That actress who had surgery on her septum? Who knew she still had one?” read the item. Speculation on gossip blogs centered on Aniston, who indeed had plastic surgery, allegedly to repair a deviated septum, last month.

Shortly after the item was published, an editor at the Enquirer contacted “Gatecrasher” writer Ben Widdicombe, asking for help getting in touch with his tipster. The editor offered to pay Widdicombe’s source $20,000 if she would take a lie detector test, which the Enquirer often demands to protect itself from libel suits. Widdicombe, who declined to comment when called by Radar, passed along the request to the source, said to be a friend of Aniston’s. It appears the friend rejected the deal.

Of course, none of this means that Aniston is some kind of gak monkey or that she has ever used illegal drugs, only that the Enquirer would like very much to speak with anyone willing to testify that she has. Asked about the offer, an Enquirer spokesman says, “The Enquirer would never comment on any pending or planning editorial ever. As far as this goes, I have no knowledge of it.”

Good Day all Jolie-Pitt fans.

Brad and Oprah are both smart business people, they both pave the way for Angie to promote AMH on Oprah. Oprah probably now knows that ___ is fake, manupilating, probably Oprah feels stupid for going all along with her after __ true color came out. But anyway in a busines it’s better to have more friends than enemies, you never know what will the future hold. Angie can do the promotion both with Ellen and Oprah who I am not really a fan of.

BTW, jennifer, happy to read your post. I am a lurker too, just post once in a while.

Doubt this is true.

Don’t think the adoption would be this publicized this early.

Also, I think Vietnamese law requires a couple to be married to adopt.

We’ll see.

Wherever they adopt, I salute them.

Love them!

Grant it, Oprah has given a lot of her money to charity, but she is just another money grubber. I’ve been slowly losing respect for her, but the final straw was when she had Bill O’Reilly on her show to talk about Child Molestation after O’Reilly suggested that Shaun Hornbeck was a willing captor.

From Vietman press

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are to adopt a Vietnamese child

23/02/2007

VietNamNet Bridge - “Mr. and Mrs. Smith” have sent documents to the Immigration and Naturalization Services for the adoption of a boy at Tam Binh Orphanage (HCM city) which the couple visited in November, 2006.

Angelina and Brad want to adopt a child at 3 or 4 years of age. There are many procedures the couple must go through before being able to take the child home. Contacting the American INS is just the first step.

Mr. Vu Duc Long, head of the Bureau of International Adopted Children (the Ministry of Justice), said that the famous Hollywood lovebirds had started the adoption process in the U.S and hadn’t contacted responsible authorities in Vietnam. And Mr. Nguyen Van Trung, director of Tam Binh Orphanage, said that he was waiting for any direction from the Ministry of Justice as well as HCM city Department of Justice.

Ms. Jolie used to say that she wanted to have a multi-racial family. She has a 5-year old Cambodian child named Maddox, and a 2-year old Ethiopian one called Zahara. And the 9-month old Shiloh has both the American and Namibian citizenships.

Amaya- I’m so excited for you!!!!!!!!! Let me know when you get home, I want to hear all about him. :)

A Box full @ 02/23/2007 at 2:20 pm

According to a CNN news flash: JA has reluctantly admitted to requiring an immediate vajaja tuck due to Vince’s overwhelming occupation. :-)

JoliePitt @ 02/23/2007 at 2:23 pm

Kelly, where Oprah chooses to help or where her heart belongs in helping out, whether in Africa or other parts of the world or in the US, doesn’t change the fact that she’s got kind a heart. And, that’s she’s willing to give back the gifts she’s gifted! Yes, she can do whatever she wants with her money$. A lot of you here are probably fans of Oprah, but I believe in expressing my opinions. I must admit that I am more inspired by Angie than I am with Oprah cuz I can relate to the mainstream and international help like Angie. Everywhere in the world needs help, not just Africa! Angie knows that everywhere needs help and she’s willing to help out everywhere she possibly can help. That’s truly amazing and inspiring to me even if she can only help a bit here and there and even she doesn’t the money$ whereas as Oprah has!!! Angie’s passion is not just in Africa, but other countries and in America. Another words, Angie gives HOPES and DREAMS to kids and families not just in Africa, but everywhere!!! Oprah on the other hand, I do feel that her heart only belongs in Africa and I have heard several occassions that she has strongly suggested other celebrities to adopt kids from Africa cuz that is where the help is mostly needed. I disagree with Oprah on that and when she only suggested the idea of Africa, I think it’s a close dreams and hopes for kids that aren’t from Africa. But, of course other celebrities don’t have to do what she message out. I’ve also heard rumors (not sure of true or false) that Oprah has made a comment that she doesn’t want to have a “united nations” family like Brad and Angie. In my opinion, that is not her call what kind of a family Brad and Angie to have!!! However, that DOES NOT make Oprah a bad person or a better person. It’s just a matter of whose work and ideas I am more inspired by!!!!!!!

where do you people get off thinking that Oprah hates angie and brad because she is friends with Aniston. so she had aniston on her show a couple of times…whoopty freaking doo! In a recent interview i saw on t.v. Oprah praised Angelina jolie for the great things she has done in Africa and around the world. Stop creating this drama in your minds

Jennifer, thank you for your info on Angie and Madd, and the school. I don’t see any reason for doubting you. But as Dragonfly said, you don’t have to spill the bean if it means compromising the safety of the kids. To the anonymous doubters, or the ones posting under new handles, where were you when nasty “insider” defamation was posted here? I didn’t see you protest, only the regular posters did. That tells me right there where you stand.

I would have to agree with #341. I am not a huge fan of Oprah, I was in the beginning and watched her shows for years. She tends to slap herself on the back far too much for my liking. Not that she shouldn’t - its just turns me off - her self-absorbed, sef-serving attitudes.

Kelly, where Oprah chooses to help or where her heart belongs in helping out, whether in Africa or other parts of the world or in the US, doesn’t change the fact that she’s got kind a heart. And, that’s she’s willing to give back the gifts she’s gifted! Yes, she can do whatever she wants with her money$. A lot of you here are probably fans of Oprah, but I believe in expressing my opinions. I must admit that I am more inspired by Angie than I am with Oprah cuz I can relate to the mainstream and international help like Angie. Everywhere in the world needs help, not just Africa! Angie knows that everywhere needs help and she’s willing to help out everywhere she possibly can help. That’s truly amazing and inspiring to me even if she can only help a bit here and there and even she doesn’t the money$ whereas as Oprah has!!! Angie’s passion is not just in Africa, but other countries and in America. Another words, Angie gives HOPES and DREAMS to kids and families not just in Africa, but everywhere!!! Oprah on the other hand, I do feel that her heart only belongs in Africa and I have heard several occassions that she has strongly suggested other celebrities to adopt kids from Africa cuz that is where the help is mostly needed. I disagree with Oprah on that and when she only suggested the idea of Africa, I think it’s a close dreams and hopes for kids that aren’t from Africa. But, of course other celebrities don’t have to do what she message out. I’ve also heard rumors (not sure of true or false) that Oprah has made a comment that she doesn’t want to have a “united nations” family like Brad and Angie. In my opinion, that is not her call what kind of a family Brad and Angie to have!!! However, that DOES NOT make Oprah a bad person or a better person. It’s just a matter of whose work and ideas I am more inspired by!!!!!!!
+++++++++++++++++

I respect Oprah and Angelina both. The funny thing is i am not a big oprah fan, i find her annoying sometimes, even still I admire her as a black woman who came up from abuse, started her career in baltimore, taking over television, and doing great work. I have no problem with people who don’t like her. so what, she doesn’t need me to defend her ne way. I’m just saying that i really don’t understand why some BA fans don’t like her recently for siding with Jen, I just don’t see the reasoning. ne way onto her causes. I don’t see any problem with her support of Africa, Africa in some countries is pretty jacked up and i am glad more attention is being focused there; but people will find if the dig alittle deeper beyond the coverage of the south african school that oprah is involved in lots of other endeavors.

Really my only point is that I don’t understand all of this Oprah is captain of team aniston crap that originated from low leval media like star to create something out of nothing because i don’t think oprah is really all that invested in the lives of brand angelina and jen.

the only comment that i heard from o about family is that she is not getting married and she doesn’t want kids because she can do more for a bunch of kids like the school

I thought we were allowed to like who ever we wanted, for whatever reason.

I think the ___ is a cokehead but not because of that radaronline article. Radaronline has published proven lies about Brad and Angie. So I don’t think we should pay attention to another accusation even if it’s in connection with the __. But my personal opinion is that she does some kind of drugs. I’m sure the truth will come out about her, she has many skeletons.

AS for that hilarious AP-report, I don’t believe it either. Where is the link to the source? Or is it a joke? Not a bad one really.

by all means, like anyone you want and for whatever reasons you want! who said you have to choose who to like or who not to like to begin with???

Jen’s latest publicized nose job this past January 20 had Brad too curious and searching for her pictures online.

“Brad’s one of the few people who’ve seen childhood pictures of Jen from before her first nose job,” says an insider.

The incident had Jolie so upset that they broke out in a fight that left Jolie crying.

“She told Brad that she was sick and tired of his fascination with Jen and that he needs to move on,” told a friend of the couple.

A second source of contention is the fact that Brad plans to meet up with Jen at this years Oscars.

“Brad thinks putting the Jen stuff behind him should finally allow him to turn a corner with Angelina,” says an insider close to Brad.

But Angie wants to avoid meeting Jen and is not keen on attending the Oscars and is rumored to also have turn down an offer to present at the ceremony.

Brad Pitt has been nominated for the Oscar for two films Babel and The Departed.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~
Or better yet, Why was Jennifer asked to present at the Oscars last year?

Could it be that nobody pities her anymore? she’s played that card one to many times. Nobody cares anymore.

“But Angie wants to avoid meeting Jen and is not keen on attending the Oscars and is rumored to also have turn down an offer to present at the ceremony.”

These tabs are just too funny in their lies. Didn’t Angelina say in her Vogue article that she would be willing to meet with Aniston anytime?

cool, i hear you. i’m inspired by Angelina aswell, and i didn’t mean to get caught up ne way

are they going to the oscars

I don’t think so.

Just popping in briefly to say . . . (thanks for the heads-up from someone who posted both Brad and Angie’s movie schedule earlier this week) . . . i am half-watching 12 Monkeys now on USA (began about 3p EST). I know i’ve seen snippets of this movie before but definitely not since Brad and Angie got together and i am just tickled that long before they got together, they both did a movie in which they played mentally ill patients (Angie = Girl Interrupted / Brad = 12 Monkeys).
Its just destiny, y’all. These two kindred spirits are not only great at their craft, they both show the same desire to push the envelope to discover all the facets of their ability as actors. Ya gotta love them. Can you imagine the fun they have as a couple, as lovers, as parents, as two explorers on this journey called life!

Selective memory, they seem to forget this part.
Why do they continue to portray Angie as this fragile thing who will break at any moment?
The Angie that we all “know” and Love will take on the likes of X___ anytime.

It is rumored that Angelina and Brad will be at the Oscars. I guess we have to wait and see.

Hello everyone! Been out of commission for a couple of days so it’s nice to drop in and chat with you all once again.

Like most people here, I will wait to celebrate until the adoption story is confirmed by a reliable source. However, if it’s true, it would be wonderful news particularly if the next child is a boy about Mad’s age.

For those people that keep criticizing Brad and Angie (or Angie in particular) about adding new members to their family, quit hating and most of all, quit projecting. Your criticisms are all very similar: too soon, the kids won’t get enough individual attention/care, it will be too crazy in that household etc.

For the “too soon” camp, people above have already pointed out that B&A want to raise their family all at once while they (B&A) are young enough to have the energy to run around and play with the kids. It’s a rational way of wanting to raise kids since you get the raising part done all at once instead of having to drag it out over decades (someone pointed out that caring for an infant all over again after you’ve raised your kids to be teens or adults will be a difficult adjustment). Additionally, it’s good to have/adopt kids like B&A have done since the kids will be close in age and can more effectively bond with and relate to each other. I have siblings that are 10 years older than I am and because of this age gap, I only got truly close to my sister who was closest to my age (5 years older) because my other siblings have always seemed too much of an adult for me to relate to them while I was growing up. I think the age gaps between MZS so far are pretty good since they won’t ever be so far apart in age that they can’t relate to each other. Any additions to the brood in the near future will reap the same benefit.

For the “kids won’t get enough individual attention/care” camp, you seem to be missing the point that B&A are not “ordinary parents” in terms of the help and resources at their disposal. The 2.5 kids per family norm these days is a relatively modern development and at least in America (and perhaps other western countries), it’s a result of the 2 income household reality for most families since more kids amount to more expenses and more demands on your time. A lot of couples feel that 2-3 kids is what is manageable because most couples nowadays both work so they have to juggle getting kids dressed and ready to go to school/daycare/nanny, going to work, picking up the kids afterwards, cooking dinner, helping kids with homework/spending time with them and then getting them ready for bed, cleaning up the house everyday. This doesn’t apply to B&A because even when they work, they make sure one of them stays with the kids. It’s also fairly common knowledge that the net worth of these two individuals alone can support 2 dozen kids and combined, they can probably adopt a small village. Additionally, these two don’t need to juggle child care with cleaning the house, yard work, cooking meals, etc. and to top it off, they can have live-in nannies to help usher kids to the bath, get them ready for trips, etc. Suffice it say that the number of children that B&A can handle is greater than that of an “ordinary” family. So for the critics, just because the number of kids you can handle is less than what B&A can handle doesn’t mean they’re less capable parents than you. My mother and both my grandparents came from families with 9-12 kids and they all turned out fine since they were raised during simpler times and had the luxury of having one parent at home at all times (and they didn’t even have maids/cooks/nannies). So stop harping on the number of kids B&A have and want to have—they can easily raise the soccer team they want with the resources they have.

For the “crazy household” camp, sure there will be commotion at a household with a lot of kids but a parents with maids and helpers can easily handle that. Lots of kids in a household means more friends and playmates for the kids. Having a huge family makes for great childhood memories. Some people seems to think family is all about parents and child only but the truth is, family is just as much about the relationships children develop with their siblings—to one child one sibling may be the pest, one sibling may be the protector, one sibling the confidant, etc. A big family doesn’t just mean a crazy household—often times, it also means a stronger support system and stronger sense of belonging.

So please, enough of the criticisms of B&A expanding their family!

I highly doubt it. The OSCARS just updated their list of presenters and they’re now at 44, last year there were only 39 presenters! I’ve got to think they’re fully booked now.

And i can’t imagine B&A would sit through the HOURS long Oscar show waiting for the last award “Best Picture”, i just can’t see it.

IMO they aren’t going, and i think that’s a good thing. Just lay low, and enjoy themselves.
