OlderAngelina Files Vietnam Adoption Papers
The Associated Press just published that Angelina Jolie will be adopting her next child from Vietnam with her partner Brad Pitt. (It was reported by US Weekly last month.)
According to Vu Duc Long, the director of Vietnam’s International Adoption Agency, Angie has tfiled papers to adopt a Vietnamese child, the country’s top adoption official said Friday.
Said Long, “She just filed the papers this week.”
“We consider her like any other American who wants to adopt children from Vietnam. She is not yet married so the file was from her individually. It will take a few months for us to consider this,” he added.
A source close to Angie said, “The process began shortly after Shiloh was born. It has been a long process and she is now simply waiting for further information.”
Brad and Angie have three children — Maddox, 5, Zahara, 2, and Shiloh, 9 months.
Maddox was adopted from Cambodia, Zahara was born adopted from Ethiopia, and baby Shiloh was born to the couple in Namibia.
Brad and Angie spent Thanksgiving in Vietnam, where they visited the Tam Binh orphanage, on the outskirts of Ho Chi Minh City. Thanks, NM!

Well take it from a hater. Mia Farrow adopted a bunch of kids. Is she a mess? People Mag reported that they planned it after Shiloh’s birth so that means it is not spur of the moment & Brad was not consulted. Geezzz, a hater will always be a hater & whatever reasoning you present them (even if it is the actual fact) they will not a bit change their opinion.
HAVEN’T YOU ALL NOTICED THAT THE RANTING HATERS ALWAYS ARE NEW POSTERS? OR COULD THEY BE OLD TIME POSTING HATERS CHANGING NAMES TO MAKE IT BELIEVABLE THAT THE WHOLE WORLD HATES THEM.
sherkthethird=finally=angelianattnwhore=reality
THE SAME PERSON IS HERE AGAIN RESPONDING TO POSTERS SHE DISAGREE WITH. YOU HAVE BEEN IN EVERY THREAD & EVERY THREAD YOU ARE IN YOU KEEP CHANGING NAMES & YOU ALWAYS HAVE SO MUCH FAKE CONCERN. YOU CAN’T GET ENOUGH OF BRAD & ANGELINA BECAUSE YOU ADORE THEM.
ARE YOU BRAGGING AGAIN FOR 8 HOURS OR FOR THE WHOLE WEEKEND?

Good post coalharbourqt.
“I can understand better the people that come here and say that they just don’t like Angelina and/or Brad - okay fine, that is your opinion …- but to pick apart the good deeds of Brad and Angie and speak negative of their adoption of a child who will suffer needlessly otherwise (and when you don’t even have all the correct facts!) is just ignorant, plain and simple.”
ITA. Instead of hiding behind “concern”, “worry”, self righteous pretensions (see my 220 post), know it all attitudes, just come out and be honest. Perceptions about these two individuals are misconceived and misplaced. Others who know them personally have said each are the most misunderstood individuals, why are people who are so far removed from them feel it appropriate to make sweeping accusations, assumptions and speculations without fact, logical premises, yet alone never having interacted with them other than through a tabloid article.
What a totally bizarre thread! I’ve been roflmao at the “concern” shown to the existing kids of the family. And the idea that they don’t have enough “time” for more kids…..honestly….AND they don’t have couple time….though Angie reported they go off on their bikes and stay in roadside motels…..What an odd collection of posts. And AG called names! OUR AG! Did I misread or were they calling her Cliniqua as well? Well, at least Clini isn’t a guy from My Space anymore….not sure how AG will feel about sharing her body though…….:lol:
#300 Sherkthethird,None of your posts have any logic what-so-ever.This adoption was planned before way before her Mother passed.They are getting on with their life as they SHOULD!Angelina has done nothing since becoming a Mother that is unstable.So is Heidi Klum unstable for having 3 babies in 3 years?You are the one who sounds UNSTABLE.Obsessing over other peoples family planning,remember it’s not your life.Also cut the crap about protecting the childern from public eyes I think they do a good job considering all of the media that is focused on them.What are they supposed to do keep the kid’s locked in the house and never take them out?You have a BIG TIME hate problem and just want something,hell anything to rag about.
Everybody has suddenly become planned parenthood experts on this rather strange thread.
sherkthethird=finally=angelianattnwhore=reality
This is me sherkthethird, first who the hell are finally, ageninattnwhore and reality?????????????? DO NOT ASSUME it is the same person because it is not. I guess some of you have had really bad experiences with internet, LOL. I don’t like posing as different people. It is too confusing for me, LOL. By the way 305 (with Says) if you have read my post carefully from the beginning then you would know why I don’t say anything about Heidi Klum. So there you go you can cut the **** as you called it in your post.
Suddenly I am a hater, :) Hater of what??????? Because I have opinions on bragelina I am branded a hater????PLEASE get a life Ashley. People can disaggree with one another, it doesn’t mean they are full of hatre. LOL.. I can’t believe how angry some people are. It’s unreal..
#307 sherkthethird,No you didn’t say anything about Heidi Klum,but she has had several childern in a short period of time,THAT IS MY POINT.You have the nerve to call Angelina unstable for doing the same.You have a problem with Angelina that’s why you are knocking her.Sharon Stone also adopted 2 babies in a years time,she now has 3 and she is bringing them up ALONE!Does that make her unstable?Oh I guess only Angelina is unstable for wanting childern,huh?
sherkthethird - we could use a good discussion than a racist. Anyways, for your information - all your comments have been flagged and reported to Jared.

You don’t want to adopt a kid that’s too old. But if the gap between the kids is too big, they won’t make really good company for each other. I know from personal experience… Good place to get a kid brother (I assume) for Mad though!
*********************************
Please don’t say one doesn’t want to “adopt a kid too old.” All children deserve homes. I know several people who have adopted older children from Ethiopia and they are delieriously happy…..the entire family! The oldest orphan I know personally was 15 when she left. She and I made a Duncan Hines cake together in the orphanage in Addis when she was still too shy to speak an English sentence, a day before she got on the plane with her new family and us to go to her new home. That’s when I adopted my 14-month old boy. I have never met a more helpful, polite, wonderful teenager than that beautiful girl.
If she had not been adopted, her only recourse to survive on the streets of Ethiopia would have been prostitution. Instead she is now perfectly happy in a wonderful family in California. Adopt the older kids too!!!
#308 sherkthethird,I’ll tell you what is UNREAL,You are!Let’s see you can call a woman unstable who has done nothing in say 6 years to warrant that opinion.Then you give your bias opinion on someone else’s family planning,please save the dribble for some else.
testing
nobody would be saying it was too much or too soon if Angelina was pregnant.
#314 test,Yeah they would.The thing is adoption is a long process.The paper work has just been filed,it could be another 6 to 12 months before they even recieve a child.So almost the same time frame as carrying a child.

I wonder why that Vietnamese official went to the press with their intentions of adoption. Usually they keep their business quiet. I blame him for all of this speculation and negativity. Of course all of this would have occurred once they had adopted, but it would have been after the fact. I keep trying to understand this person’s motivation to expose their intentions. I wonder if they knew her was going to do this? I guess it really doesn’t matter in the long run, but it just gets the media and haters longer to blow hate. Of course if there are complications they can always adopt somewhere else. It seems having them adopt a child from any country brings a certain amout of status to that country. I hope everything proceeds without any problems.
I had never blogged until I discovered this site, and I must say it has been an eye opener. I have never seen such hateful and racist comments passed off as truth in my life. Some of these are really sick. But the scary part is that some of these people are our neighbors and that is frightening.
322 should be he instead of her, “if they knew he”.
Big families are great. Most people have not been lucky enough to experience this. Everyone in the family is there for each other and believe it or not most parents have time for all the children. I grew up in a big family and I felt lucky every day. There was always someone around when I needed them. We were so happy and had a lot of fun together. I never for one second felt less loved.
I applaud Angie and Brad for their decision to adopt another child and wanting more children. They do this out of the goodness of their hearts, not to please any one. As long as they can give a child a good home, then they should.
Kearnie ( 310), what racist comments??? First I was accused of posing as different users (god knows why) and now I am accused of being a racist??? LOL. Man this is insane. So when someone disaggree with you, you then report them to justjared and then accuse the person of being racist? How childish can you get in here??? Why are you so bitter? Someonen must have hurt you pretty bad huh? This site is frankly quite funny.
I am one and only sherkthethird people :) Not anyone ele just me. I also don’t pose racist comments. I think it’s vile myself.
for your info apparently you do not understand mocking-i was mocking puh lease concerning sherkthethird- i wasn’t supporting the kkk or nazis- a tad too sensitive aren’t we
