Angelina Jolie in Vietnam for Adoption
Angelina Jolie leaves from Ho Chi Minh City International Airport and is escorted through Vietnam with 5-year-old son Maddox under the protection of her personal security officer Mickey Brett. Here’s Angelina’s expected agenda during her stay:
- Travel to Tam Binh orphanage outside Ho Chi Minh City to receive 3-year-old child (most likely a boy)
- Participate in an adoption ceremony with officials in Ho Chi Minh City
- Meet with U.S. consular officials to review the adoption and grant the child a passport.
It appears that Brad Pitt is home in L.A. taking care of his two daughters, Zahara, 2, and Shiloh, 10 months.

Where oh where is Brad?
Awwwww, beautiful children leetle UN! :-)
I will laugh my a.s.s off if the entire frickin’ JP family is there. Hahahaha! Not that I think it would mean any less if it was just Angie, or just Angie and Mad…I’m just saying - to see the look on all the haters faces that the entire brood went to get baby Sang…bwahahaha! Luvs it. :-)
God forbid, if Angelina pulled a Madonna….Madonna didn’t even pick little David up herself, she had him delivered like a damned pizza right to her door.
If that was Angelina, they’d be laying into her like there was no tomorrow. Ha!
I am Happy for you Brad & Angelina. Surely this new addition will be showered with love & affection.

Thanks. Then they travelled in more than one car from the airport. Oh well, we will know the facts sooner or later. People will probably print an exclusive.
Whoa, I love how B&A are keeping everyone guessing. But I will say that if Zee and Shi along with Mad is there, no way Brad isn’t around somewhere.
Brad is too protective of his family to let them go by themselves even with Mickey and Holly, along. He is somewhere near, I bet! Also I smell some vacation time taking place.
Thanks everyone for the links to the articles.
Sorry if this is already posted, cause I don’t want to take credit away from anybody
Angelina Jolie adopts Vietnamese boy 7 minutes ago
HO CHI MINH CITY (AFP) - Hollywood screen star Angelina Jolie adopted a three-year-old Vietnamese boy Thursday, picking him up from an orphanage after a short and tearful ceremony, its director told AFP.
The Oscar-winning actress, who already has three children with her partner Brad Pitt, left with the boy for an official ceremony at Ho Chi Minh’s justice department.
Nguyen Van Trung, the director of the orphanage, said it was an emotional moment when Jolie and her five-year-old Cambodian-born adoptive son, Maddox, arrived for a 30-minute visit.
“They tried to make friends with the Vietnamese boy, who cried when he saw them because for him, they are strangers,” Trung said. “Jolie was very moved. Both of them tried to comfort the little boy.”
Jolie was later expected to meet US consular officials in Ho Chi Minh City so they could prepare to issue an American passport for the boy, who was abandoned at a hospital in the city when he was one month old.
She filed adoption papers in Vietnam in late January through an agency and would adopt the boy as a single parent because she is unmarried, officials here have said.
The child will be the fourth for Jolie. Aside from Maddox, she has a two-year-old daughter, Zahara, who was adopted from Ethiopia. Jolie and Pitt have a biological daughter, Shiloh, born to the couple last May in Namibia.
Jolie reportedly has tattoos of the geographical coordinates of her children’s birthplaces — Phnom Penh, Cambodia; Addis Alem, Ethiopia; and Swakopmund, Namibia.
The actress — who won an Oscar in 2000 for Best Supporting Actress for her role in “Girl, Interrupted” — is a goodwill ambassador for the UN High Commissioner for Refugees.
If Brad is not there, he may arrive there later. He might have to film some scenes before heading there.

You know I have to 4Q cause I don’t want the Cyber Integrity Squad come knocking on my computer screen, because I did not give credit to the rightful person :lol:
It is nice story to hear that they are adopting now at this minute.
As someone said I get a feeling that the whole family is there (if Brad is not there now, then he may have more scene to film and will join the family soon) and they will take little vacation for the family to get to know each other. I think this would be a very good idea. I mean it is wonderful even if Angie went VN by herself, but whole family is there to welcome the lil boy is too great.
Well, this news made it to CNN news crawl… wonder if a certain someone skin is feeling the crawl too :)

awww poor little guy. He is reacting the way most kids that age does, tho.
Hopefully everything will go smoothly for them.
Thanks for sharing with us Alexanderia!
If the other kids with her WHY NOT BRAD???
Yay for the Jolie-Pitts! Sang Jolie-Pitt, I like it. Although it looks like (for now) that he won’t have six letters in his first name like his siblings. Actually, their first and middle names have six letters….

I commend Angie for continuing to do good deeds in this world. I hope she never lets the negative opinions ever get to her or affect what she does. That’s why I enjoy going into Just Jared and reading that all the majority of the posts are that of her fans who support her.
I stumbled upon this site today and I just can’t believe how far the haters will go in criticizing this woman, no matter how good of a deed she is doing.
Though it’s frustrating to read most of the negative posts, I know these are just bitter people that took what happened to JA personally, as if AJ did something directly to them, or someone they care about. Truth of the matter is, JA is one ruthless Witch, going on national TV to gain people’s pitty and to get them on her side. How mature or classy is that? She’s not in High School but she sure played the field like it.
Here’s an example of what kind of support she attracted:

Brad had five dogs that he loved before meeting Angelina. What happened to them? Were they banished? Is he not allowed to have them anymore just like he’s not allowed to have friends anymore? Just wondering…. Thank God Angie has you guys! She’s never had a friend in her life. HA! ooooh, I can’t wait for your little rage fest! But seriously, what happened to the dogs?
———
He doesn`t want 5 dogs around his babies. Dogs are dirty, no matter how clean you are, they track dirt and germs in the house. Any pediatrician will tell you that.
What kind of a mother with 3 babies hangs out with her friends. Maybe that is the fanistons problem. Their mommies neglected them because they were too busy with their friends. How many hollywood moms spend their days with their friends, besides courtney cox? Fanistons are bad mommies! They leave their children to hangout with their friends!
PDA`S are for teenagers and adults who still have not grown up. Fanistons obviously make strangers want to puke with their PDA`S. They still have not grown out of it. Making out in public like high school kids. Gross. Get a room!
2+ years and counting. Boo-hoo Brad left jen. Why are you fanistons so devastated by the divorce? How could you let a divorce of 2 people you don`t even know fill you with so much bitterness and anger. How could you let such vile cruel comments come out of your mouths? Brad, Angelina and Jen aren`t even a part of your lives. They are fictitious characters in a way. You don`t know them. To allow yourselvs to be consumed with so much hate and anger over a divorce of 2 people you do not know, and to still be angry 2 years later, is not normal.

Why are so worried on why they are adopting? Angie and Brad have all the resources they need and they are passionately eager to take care of their kids. I don’t why the adoption has to bother you. Unless you prove them incompetent parents you don’t have any rights to even just make your silly comments. You are the twisted one.
Best wishes to the JP’s. I hope everything go smoothly for all of them and specially a smooth transition for the new brother to his new home. Obviously Angie has trained and raised Mad very well as Leetle UN stated, so he will be a big factor to assist his younger brother’s adjustment. Z might be a different story, being she is in the terrible two’s stage. Yep, may not want to share them crackers. :)
Anywhoo, like all BAMZSS fans, looking forward to seeing a pic of the new one. Sang meaning bright is nice. IF they keep his name, I wonder what will be his middle name. Hopefully it will be a western/christian name that would rhyme well with Jolie-Pitt. My vote is Lee as in Bruce Lee. Yep, still a fan of BL. :)
Good night fellow BAMZSS fans!! And all you haters - eat your heart out!!! :)

Sicko, why are you here? why can’t you accept both Brad and Angie love kid ,unlike his X , who are so full of herself, love canine more than baby. Brad and Angie are creating a beautiful family together and gonna grow old together with the blessing of their children, while your idol Maniston will probably grow old with her canine alone lonely in a cold, empty 15 million dollar mansion. At least her bff Cox had a daughter. what did she had aside from dollars. she’s 38 , when will she start a family? her eggs are aging and dwindling in numbers. When Angie reach her age, Maddox will be 12 and Shiloh almost 8, and when Angie reach 40, she had boys in high school, and 2 girls about to finish elementary. As a woman , this is one of the greatest accomplishment in life than a hot career.
