Okay, I don’t understand people who come in here and say that since I like Brad and Angie and their family and love looking at their photos or reading about their work (be it acting, humanitarian), there’s something wrong with me. Saying that I miss seeing them or their kids is wrong? Isn’t this the same thing that goes for celebrities with fans? Don’t fans of all celebrities want to know all they can about their favorite celeb and are happy when they see them doing good, being happy? Should I stop coming to JJs or fansites because somehow that alludes to worshipping? You know the reason I came to be a fan of Angelina was because at the time (2005) when she was being crucified for ’stealing’ Brad Pitt and being accused of one thing to another, I decided to find out the truth about her and not what those stupid rags were writing. So, last year I started reading everything I could find about her and seeing where she has come from, what she has gone through to be who she is today, is amazing. She has found a purpose and a goal in her life and she’s doing something good with her life. I have a pastor in church who went through alot of stuff and did alot of horrible stuff in his teenage/early adulthood life before he became who he is today. When he told us his story I felt like I could identify with him because he wasn’t perfect just like I’m not perfect, he had overcome the bad stuff in his life and now is a pastor. That is why I like and admire Angie because she is not perfect but she overcame all that stuff and she is now doing something with her life. I can identify more with people like her.
With Brad I could have cared less about him prior to 2005 when he sparked my interest when he started seeing Angie. Here was a man who was seeing someone that half of America did not want him to see, but he did it anyway. He was ridiculed, insulted, lost fans, but that did not stop him from being with who he wanted to be with. Just like with Angelina I looked up information about him and was pleasantly surprised that he really is a down to earth nice man. I realized also that he is alot smarter than people give him credit for. I like that he is not perfect too and love seeing the lines on his forehead and creases in his eyes.

I love your post. I did not know much about Angie/Brad until the Vanity Fair magazine came out. That’s when I decided to read as much about these people instead of being SPOON FED by the tabloids.

I put a lot of emphasis on their personal interviews from those magazine because at least those interviews were coming from their mouths. That’s when I learned about Angie’s pre-Maddox days , and how much she has changed once she adopted Maddox. I’ve come to respect her very much. I also love Brad. He is a smart man. He won me over when he believes in Angie whilethe whole media were pro-Aniston.

Brad is a smart man. I am glad that Brad and Angie found each other. I wish this family much blessings.

Hi guli! Glad to know you still remember me. :) Yep, we have been in this site a long time now. I have been meaning to say that a few weeks ago, when the newbies brought up that issue. I would like to correct my statement earlier about Rica and Cindy2. I feel the were the original bodyguards of the Angie and Brad, because at the time I found Jared’s, I believe it was still before the ‘divorce’ being finalized and there were those huge debates about it. Do you remember? And maan, I recall long posts by Rica and Cindy2, including one of Cindy2’s debate on education with one of those against people. It went on for a long time. It was pretty cool to read. Funny, how we have followed this family, and seeing that our hope coming into fruition. As I said in the beginning I’ll say again - Brad and Angie are the current Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward or Ronnie and Nancy Reagan. Anywhooo, is there like an anniversary date for the BAMZS fans here at Jared’s ? All I can recall is summer/fall of 2005 or something like that. :D

Hi Susie- well I needed a break, but now I am enjoying the site again by just ignoring them. Many of us have been here long enough to know that it’s the same old stuff they bring up. One thing I learnt the hard way is, once you respond to them then they respond to you personally and that is hard to ignore. If you don’t respond at all, they just make general hate comments which is very easy to skip. JMHO!

angelah hiya missed chatting with you!! Yeah where are you BluM and Ell, maybe you are busy making another gorgeous video for us ;-) we miss you ladies!

Amaya- awwwww, that’s sweet. I guess Jammy wants your full attention all the time! He sounds like a newborn so just keep giving him love and companionship as you are. Little cutie pie Jammy. :)

Lola- it is a little chilly here but not too bad. I am a rain fanatic so I really enjoyed this week and we had hail too, the first time I’ve seen that. :) Where do you live?

Guli- I understand the need for a break, but I still miss when you aren’t here. “The Mayor of JJ”. I still want to see pics of your boys when you get a chance. I too like to ignore the haters b/c it actually pisses me off and I don’t want to get sucked into a cyber-fight. :lol: Things are good though and I am really enjoying all the links to interesting stories this week. :)

Frenchy- thank you for reminding me to buy the MMS soundtrack. It has been something I keep forgetting to buy as I loved it in the movie.

So people’s concern about the dedication of the BAMZS fanbase somehow harming this family is misplaced. If you go on any other celebrity blog out there, the comments section for any picture of this family is usually filled with ignorant, racist and sadistic rants. I know since I used to go to Perez for pics of this family until I found this site. To somehow come to the conclusion that the gathering of loyal BAMZS fans at this oasis of a site is more harmful than the herds of devil incarnates commenting away on this family at other celebrity blogs is unrealistic at best and absurd at its worst.

ITA!!!! They should direct ‘those concern’ at places like PH, Dlisted, and FF rather than here. At least here, we respect each other, and do not tolerate racist, bigotry, and ‘death’ comments like those sites do. So really, I don’t understand their suppocedly ‘concerns’. Anyway, Lola #1…I definitely remember you as a Bamzs fan because I remember one time when someone pointed out to you that your name means ‘grandma’ in filipino.

Juno—-Yep! C2, Rica and AG when they got on a topic it was wonderful. Those where the days when I just lurked for awhile and finally jumped in and started posting.

To the new folks lurking and posting I want to share my experience, we might not right away respond but be persistent and keep on posting that is what I did. It doesn’t mean you are being ignored, its just that some of us have known each other for along time and we always welcome new friendly BAMZS fans from ALL over the world :-)

My great example for being persistent like I was is Susie (sorry I hope you don’t mind), she had a rough time in the beginning alot of misunderstandings etc. But as far as I can see everything is OK now…..

finally, you should go to x17 and flynetonline. They are both paparazzi sites and I think those are the people you should complain to.

finally - 463:

You really need to lighten up!

All I am doing is defending a public figure that I believe in and has received the raw end of the deal in a very public smear campaign directed her way and her family as the press has decided to include (and this was way before their family photoshoots).

If it weren’t for moves such as Pitt to ban papz from his hometown people (with the ingenious approach - these are not public figures) - they would continue to go after them relentlessly.

What I fear and if you really care about this family is the negative campaign that was built around them would result in their lives being affected.
Oh yeah, it has - do you remember the Faniston freak who went after a very pregnant Jolie in Germany because of that STUPID ‘Team’ campaign!!!

No - I think you are channeling your mind to focus on a narrow viewpoint to legitimize your belief that Jolie and Pitt fans cannot enjoy in their happiness!!

I’d rather rejoice in the goodness that is spread around and fight back against the bad. If you don’t stand up for the good then you’re just as joining among the bad by not lifting a finger.

Funny though - I know that Jolie’s fanbase was big because of her international presence but still quite a distinct group, now her fanbase has grown beyond comprehension into the realm of even the minivan majorities and the ‘normal’ people as ‘normal’ folks like to think of themselves because of her very ‘normal’ family. So haterz - THANK YOU VERY MUCH -_- for helping everyone see what us Jolie Fans knew all along. How wonderful this person really is.

Also, thank you for now adding more to the Pitt fanbase because he’s got 1 right here!
