Brad Pitt Lovin’ Louisiana
Brad Pitt jets out of his New Orleans pad on Saturday morning to work on his upcoming film The Curious Case of Benjamin Button. Brad and Angelina Jolie share a $3.5 million mansion in the French Quarter of Louisiana.
Brad Pitt was last spotted kissing face with co-star Megan Brown on the set of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button in New Orleans, Louisiana. The day before that, Brad brought baby Shiloh on set.
Angelina has gone ahead and filed adoption papers to adopt her next child in Vietnam with Brad. The Vietnam International Adoption Agency says the process will take a few months.
Note: Good eyes, JJ spies! This is the answer to the latest installment of “Celebrity Guess Who?” Congrats to debjosy for guessing Brad first! High five!

God blessed them with Shiloh.
225 Lisa - go back and look at the video of Angie in Chad. This woman has a big heart. Any child she takes into her home will be loved and cared for to the best of her abilities.

KKI - you seem to know a lot about this situation - thanks for your response. Maybe you can answer this - Did Angelina choose Maddox from a group of children or was he assigned to her. Same with Zahara - was she picked out or assigned. They may seem like strange questions but I’m just curious.
***************************************************
I am a long time fan of Angelina’s (and Brad )have read a lot about her for years. Was also a fan of JV as he was and is a brilliant actor, not a fan of him as a parent however.
I believe she has said that she held Maddox while on a visit to an orphanage in Cambodia, he was asleep, opened his eyes, they looked at each other, that was it for her. So in a way you could say they choose each other.
Angelina recently said that she and Brad looked at Zahara’s file for the first time together, made the decision together to adopt her. So maybe they were sent some files of adoptable infants and picked out Zahara.
Adoption rules and procedures vary very much from country to counry and are often revised it seems. I work with someone who adopted from China several years ago and the process took about a year total. She has recently inquired about doing so again but rule changes may mean that she will be unable to do so. So she is working with an adoption agency to see what is possible. She was married at the time of the earlier adoption but is now divorced, so this new adoption would be as a single parent.
I grew up in a large family with two adopted brothers, plus 6 biological full and half siblings (we were all the same-full or half meant nothing). No difference was ever made between any of us.
I knew it. The haters are getting more and more vicious every time there are new beautiful pictures of BAMZS.

What is so obvious is that you are a fool and you did not turn out so well yourself. Does that make your parents idiots?
Lisa, I pray to God that you snap out your judgemental nonsense. Brad and Angelina wether you like it or not are human beings, who are entitled to raise a family in their own unique and special way. You may feel good bestowing your own opinion against them but seriously it is none of your business and get off your high horse and take the high road.

Oh puh-leeze - what rock have you been under? Angelina and Brad are probably more hands on than the average North American couple - they can afford to have only one parent working at a time and, for the most part, they seem to be accomplishing that goal.
Wow, did you guys know that Babel world wide box office as of now, (not including Japan) has surpassed the BO gross of Syriana, The Constant Gardener, and even Crash?
kk1 - thanks for taking the time to reply and such a good reply. You have filled in the gaps. I like Jon Voight also as an actor - particularly when he was younger. I have been trying to find his movie titled Conrad or Contack - something like that - when he played the part of a school teacher to a bunch of kids isolated on an Island. So far haven’t been successful. I caught part of the movie on tv late one night and hopefully will get to watch the whole thing sometime. Once again thanks for your reply.

she is loved..
What no BAMZS news? OK life just goes on. That’s nice. I saw the pics of Shiloh and man she is big. What is Angelina feeding those kids,? LOL!!! All three are big , and healthy. Truly a blessing. I hope the children give them the joy that only children can bring. Did you guys know that Jane Fonda adopted an African American baby girl? She is now in her late 40’s and is a professional. Tom Hanks has a half sister who is African American. She is not adopted but a blood reltaion. they share the same mother but not the same father.
ntt - I heard that it was also the number 1 selling/rented DVD
em and CHQT, well said.
baby Shiloh’s just the cutest, isn’t she? i love her eventhough she don’t know me…

ntt - that’s so awesome to hear! Can’t wait to see the numbers from Japan.

‘Just thinking,’ if you’d like to hear angelina discuss the beautiful way she and Mad ‘found’ each other –this youtube starts off with angie describing this to James Lipton on Inside the Actor’s Studio…it made me cry when I first heard it. The part where she says she was brought to an orphanage and that she knew that inside her son and/or daughter would be waiting - she could just ‘feel’ it - this youtube starts right as she’s describing it…it’s incredibly moving….

You are wrong. JA is pissed because BP moved on before she did, not because she thought he cheated.
———————————————————————————————–
ITA and IMO that is the root of all of it. BP wasn’t a walking disaster like he was after the break up with GP. I believe she fet he ‘got over it’ too quickly. Perhaps in her mind it minimized what she believed he felt for her…As every fan of his knows he was a complete mess after GP. A part of her may have wanted him to exhibit some of those things with their breakup. Obviously, I don’t know any of these people but that’s how I read all of it from the get go.
Bottom line, I think he came to the realization that they were better suited as friends (no pun intended) than as a couple in a relationship.
————————
These posts are so on the money, and what I’ve always felt and said. In my opinion, maniston has gone back and forth on her grudges with Brad. The first was the obvious one in vanity fair. As ntt says, she was mad because Brad had ‘moved on’ so quickly. She was concerned with how it made her look.
Who knows? Perhaps they had a verbal agreement that they would try to not have any public relationships for a period of time, and Brad simply could not and would not honor this having fallen in love with Angelina. Hence her ’shock’ in Vanity fair that she talks about. Let’s be clear though, she was not shocked that Brad wanted angelina, because from all reports including her own VF article, he TOLD her he was attracted to Angelina — so she knew this already. The “shock,” was over the Kenya pictures, of him vacationing with her in public before she felt an allotted amount of sufficient “mourning” time had passed for the relationship. (If you’ll recall, she said in VF and even subsequent interviews that she felt she needed to “mourn and HONOR the relationship” that was all shorthand to the public, as if to say SEE, I am good, and Brad is bad — ‘Brad did NOT mourn and honor’ the relationship).
Brad’s quickness and eagerness in moving on, was also why I believe he said what he did to Alejandro Innaritu (paraphrasing: ‘Brad had sincere affection for Jennifer and did not want to hurt her, but he said he fell instantly and passionately in love - that angelina makes it crazy’ - translation) Brad may have known it would hurt Jennifer to see him involved so soon, and publicly - but he just could not wait for his life with Angelina to begin.
So okay, that’s the first grudge — which I actually think ended at a certain point in time AFTER Maniston’s nasty VF article exposing and stabbing Brad in the back, came out. I think she probably realized soon after that she had f*cked up and probably made some attempt to apologize to him personally. This is why when she was on Larry King promoting the Godawful ‘Derailed’ and he asked her if they still talked, and if it was pleasant — she answered very shortly, ‘Yeah. Pleasant. Done.’ I think she apologized to Brad, and Brad at that point had washed his hands of her after he pulled the knife out of his back, but being the gentleman that he is, managed to come across as a polite stranger. The old ‘we kept the love we had for each other,’ DAYS were over. I think at this point Brad was disgusted, felt betrayed, and was done….but cordial. Which is why maniston answered Larry King as she did.
The second grudge in my opinion - one that continues to this day quite possibly (unless the tabloid story of her sympathy card is true) is when she of course learned Angelina was pregnant. I think, much like the Kenya photos, she took this as another ’slap in the face’ (which she so richly deserved after the VF article), and again started hatin’ on Brad and Angelina to the nth degree. She is all about appearances, and the woman went from half of ‘The Golden Couple,’ envied and worshipped by her goddess pals for landing “Brad Pitt,” to “A Woman Scorned,” pitied by her former worshippers, and made to feel less than for not only losing her good thing in such a humiliating way, but now having to see him have a child with ‘Angelina Jolie’ — and suddenly she goes from being looked up to and admired for her ‘relationship’ w/ a Movie God…to not having a man at all anymore, just an old dog named Norman.
For someone like Maniston, she viewed her circumstances as mortifying and embarrassing - and the pregnancy was a fresh hit to the solar plexus. So again, the grudge match ensued.
ough all of this - I’d remind everyone, that Maniston already knew her marriage was toast in the summer of 2004, she’s said so. So what we’re really talking about, is a woman that is solely concerned with how people view her - and what they think. She’s not concerned about ‘honoring the relationship’ that’s b.s. - they were done and had been done for a while.

bbt quote.
Billy Bob: I miss Angelina, shoot. . She was a great part of my life, a part I would never want to erase, if I could. She was a wild pony, and I wasn’t in the frame of mind anymore to be taming anyone.
hmmmm She seems pretty tame now.
**************************************************
Maybe BBT lacked the necessary and proper “wild pony taming skills” to tame the Angelina Jolie. Then, lo and behold, along comes The Brad Pitt and he’s done the job. HeHeHe.
______________________
Why did the scene in ‘Legends of the Fall’ where Tristian is taming the wild horse, with Ormond looking hungrily out the window at him…come to mind when I read this. lolol
I just want to say Brad and Angie did not choose Z, she was chosen for them by the orphanage.
Sometimes I blame Bonnie Fuller, Janice Min and all these tabloid editors for putting out so much lies about Brad and Angie. There are some people like Lisa #225 (I hope her comment is flagged) who cannot separate these realities from lies, although that also does not give Lisa the right to call anyone an idiot. Anyway, what I’m saying is I completely support people who point out these lies in the media. The tabloid editors should do some soul searching themselves because I’m sure some of them have kids like Mad, Z and Shiloh.

I sincerely hope that you have no children. Such bitterness and spite as you harbor is definitely detremental to being in anyway whatsoever a good parent.

I imagine that as Angelina matured and knew who she was as most of us must do at some time in life, that BBT checked out. When one partner undergoes change as Angelina did, when she found her calling/her reason to be, and the other partner does not change, then this now incompatible relationship cannot succeed. BBT had been married four times before Angelina, he had children, maybe he wanted a life with someone young and childless. He also has stated that he has never liked to travel a lot.
Shiloh looks like a doll - perfect. Zahara was beautiful at 6 months and is growing up to be a gorgeous little girl. Maddox was an adorable baby and toddler and is becoming a handsome young boy. They are truly blessed.

ITA - which is why I tend to think of Angelina as being ’single’ when she was finally able to bring Maddox home - especially if we’re talking about a couple of weeks. Changing and growing together is one of the toughest challenges a couple faces in staying together - especially if one partner doesn’t keep up.
I also like to point out that National Ledger and Post Chronicles are the biggest no-nos. They repeat tabloid stories and everytime you google Brad and Angie’s name these false publications come up first. Somehow those of us that found our ways to JJ’s site have decided to stay here. A lot of these high school students are the ones who believe these tabloid stories and write with venom on the blogs because you can tell they don’t have enough eduation to think clearly or write well.

Yes, all three are very healthy looking wellfed children. They’ve got loving parents. Just look at the difference in Zahara, from the earliest pixs in July 2005, when she was so tiny at 7 months, so frail looking, to the beautiful 2 year older today. And the way Shiloh looks at cookies and crackers in some recent pixs is just priceless, her brother and sister will have to keep a tight hold on their treats as soon as she is more mobile.
CLINIQUA - thanks for the link to youtube - wonderful bit - I’m on dial up so was only able to hear the first minute before I gave up - but that one minute was enough - thanks.

Ain’t that the TRUTH - lol. I usually try not to click on their links but occasionally the titles from the National Ledger are so blatantly fabricated that I’ll check out their story and then e-mail them telling them why their story and their sources are so bogus. Funny though - they never seem to write me back! :-)
