You can make it wallpaper to your PC and to every wall in your room or make it a tattoo on you back or make it a T-shirt. Re-posting it here doesn’t change a thing. Sorry!! LMAO!!!
Brad didn’t accompany her to pick up their “new” child.
She promised to be a stay at home mom, then quickly breaks that promise.
Brad is allowing Shiloh to appear with him in his new movie, what about the other kids?
Something ain’t right, you can deny it, but regardless, you’re just too dang blind.
While there are so many naysayers about the fight to end poverty, I’ll take anything we get! I currently intern for The Borgen Project, which is a non-profit organiation that is lobbying congress, political leaders and the community to support the United Nations Millenium Development Goals. The Millenium Goal is trying to halve global poverty by 2015 and eventually eliminate poverty, provide education, erradicate disease and empower women (among many things). Please get involved in this movement! President Bush pledged his support in 2000 but has not followed through. Our leaders need to focus on ending terrorism and genocide by tackling the underlying issue: poverty. To see what you can do, please visit Borgenporject.org and check out the shocking information, such as it takes only $19 billion to end starvation yet America has spent $320 billion on the war in Iraq to “fight terrorism.” Speak up, make your voices heard by your leaders and make a real difference in the world. It is a moral obligation for those who can to help those who cannot help themselves.

Folks, there’s sad news in the tabloid world. I’ve just learned that poor, put-upon Bonnie Fuller has been demoted at the Star. Looks like the reign of Queen Bonnie has ended…..
Star struck The ax fell again at Star and slumping American Media. Twenty people were let go, including 12 at the celebrity magazine. Most of the cutbacks were said to have been orchestrated by Candace Trunzo, the new editor-in-chief of Star who has shoved the company’s Editorial Director Bonnie Fuller into a reduced role. Those cuts included Executive Editor Jon Auerbach, who’s a former high ranking editor at The Post and an ex-CNN producer. Auerbach, who was out of the office sick yesterday, was reportedly fuming that his name was released before he was told in person. The list of Star cuts also includes highly-regarded Design Director Orville Clarke, veteran Senior Editor Joe Tirella, who was responsible for many of the magazine’s cover packages, Film Critic Marshall Fine, reporter Shira Levine, New York Photo Editors Antoinette Campana and Gerald Jean-Pierre, Director of Public Relations Kate Ottenberg, an L.A.-based photo editor and a New York-based designer. Sources said the news was delivered by AMI’s senior Vice President of Human Relations, Dan Rotstein. THOSE WHO WERE IN THE OFFICE WHEN THE BAD NEWS WAS DELIVERED WERE REQUIRED TO PACK UP THEIR DESKS THAT DAY - LEADING SOME TO LEAVE THE OFFICE IN TEARS. Sources also say AMI’s Creative Director Colin Jenkins, who had been based in Boca Raton, Fla., will now be taking control of Star’s cover designs. It comes only days after AMI finally released its long overdue 2006 fiscal year results, in which it shows a net loss of $160 million on revenue of $496.2 million for the period ending March 31, 2006. That compares to the restated results for the preceeding fiscal year, where it now shows a net loss of $13.8 million on revenue of $501.8 million. It also said the Securities and Exchange Commission had started a probe of its books even as it restated results from 2004 and 2005.

Hi PT, just wanted to say thank you for the tabloid round up. Love it. Did you bury a line from a song in this issue? i didn’t pick it up but was wondering if anyone else did.
Also, I just can’t feel sorry for those who ere in the office when the bad news was delivered were required to pack up their desks that day – leading some to leave the office in TEARS. I mean, anyone who is willing to be a tablied writer is just SCUM.
oops http://borgenproject.org/
those who cannot help themselves.

Mag Circulation Numbers Says:
March 28th, 2007 at 5:28 pm - flag comment
If any of you are interested, here are the Magazine circulation numbers for 2006 & 2005 . Note that only the 2006 subscription numbers were verifiable, not the 2005 number.
Notice how the numbers for US Mag were “falsely” reported for 2005 . How was that possible to lose almost 1 million subscription in one year period…unless it was false reporting — just like the way they go about reporting lies in their mag week after week.
PEOPLE Mag numbers are roughly about the same …true reporting .
http://i9.tinypic.com/2dgkw9f.jpg
Mag Circulation Numbers. When you say that US Weakly numbers were FALSELY REPORTED, I’m not sure whether you mean that they were INCORRECTLY reported because if you look at the 2005 numbers, the total column (column 3) is INCORRECT and should be more than 2.6 million.
Actually, I’m surprised that the numbers can be so incorrect. I understand that one of the big 4 auditors are required to verify the actual circulation numbers because they affect the amount of money advertisers will pay for advertisement.
It seem AMI has had to restate profits for more than 2 year back. And it looks like US Weakly numbers are also going down. I certainly hope that people are starting to get turned off by the outright lies and negativity about people they write about. As Human Beings, there’s clearly a desire to read about Britney’s nervous breakdown, Anne Nicole smith’s tragic death and what will happen to Dannilynn. As human beings, we may all want to stare at a car accident and be thankful it hasn’t happened to us. However, none of us want to read LIES about car accident or Anne Nicole Smith. If you know it is a lie, you wouldn’t get that “but for the grace of God, there goes I” feeling. And by now, most sane people have worked out that Tablies LIE big time.
US Weakly has LIED so often and been caught out so often, that it is not surprising that their numbers are falling. Unnamed sources quoting that US$2.0m was given as a donation. That was just dumb. Why did Janice Min even allow something so verifiable and so likely to be WRONG get published I don’t know. I mean, you don’t have to be a genius to know that the Jolie Pitts must be absolutely CAREFUL never to be accused of bribery after the fiasco of the Madonna adoption.

To UN leetle (sp?)
Natürlich kenne ich Dresden! Es muß echt interessant gewesen sein, in der damaligen DDR als Ami zu leben. Wenn du/Sie Dein/Ihr Deutsch üben willst, kann ich Dir/Ihnen ganz gerne helfen.
******************************************************
Das ist ganz nett von Dir, obwohl es den anderen wahrscheinlich nicht gefallen wuerde, lange (oder kuerze) fremdsprachigen Messages hier zu sehen. Ausserdem bin ich nicht regelmaessig hier….habe drei junge Kinder (aus Aethiopien und Vietnam…weshalb ich ehrlich gesagt Angie und Brad mag!) und einen Partner und ein Fulltime Job in der Hauptstadt des Landes der unbegrenzten Moeglichkeiten (dich zum Tode zu arbeiten).
Du kannst mir dutzen…bin 46 aber noch nicht “erwachsen.”
Ich war 1984-1985 in Dresden. Habe sogar einen Freund aus Glauchau “ausgeheiratet,” nur damit er dort weg konnte. Wir haben uns 6 Monate spaeter in Muenchen scheiden lassen, wie geplannt. Wir sind heute noch in Verbindung, obwohl er bis zu seinem Tod die DDR wie die Pest hassen wird. Er ist viel konservativer als ich, und wird schlimmer mit dem Alter.
Mir gefiel zum Beispiel der Film “Das Leben der Anderen” (oder war es “des Anders?” in der deutschen Fassung? Auf english war es “of others”) nicht so ganz….ich denke es war eindeutig ein Westdeutscher Film, und dass der (die? das?) Oskar Verleih an den Film nicht unpolitisch war. Es muesste in 2006 bessere deutsche Filme gegeben haben.
Ich heisse “Leetle UN” weil mir das Kofi Annan sagte, in der 10 Sekunden meines Lebens, wo ich ihn sprechen konnte. Ich erzaehlte ihm ich haette Kinder aus Vietnam und Aethiopien und er sagte, mit westafrikanischem Akzent und ganz breitem Laecheln, “Ah, you have a leetle UN!”
Und nun schluss bevor die anderen schreien und Deutschland weiter beschimpfen.

BRAD PITT: Six thousand people are dying a day–a day–needlessly because they don’t have access to the drugs that we have. I feel it is our responsibility to make those available. I had a woman who just heard about the drugs last week. She grabbed my hand. She said, ‘Please, please help us get the drugs.’ I visited many orphanages.
You literally want to grab as many children as you can and take them home with you. There was one child in a crib. Just by going over and putting my hands on this child, rubbing his back, I saw this kid experience bliss for a moment. For a moment. And I think about it every day since, and I can’t wait to get back. I don’t know what the future of this child’s going to be. I feel like I witnessed the best and the worst of the human condition; physically the worst, but the greatest spirit. We can do something really exciting, and we could help change a nation, and I want to help.
——————–
I’m laughing my butt off when the Tabs and the haters are saying that Brad is sick with adoptions and he only wants bio kids. He was all for it from the get go. The man also said that he can’t imagine his life without Maddox and Zahara. He said he just can’t live without them.
Are these people so dump to comprehend or they just refuse to listen??
__________________
The haters themselves are NOT keen on the idea of adoption. They probbly think orphans are “low class” and nothing to be proud off. They think and wish everyone would have their mentality. That’s why they cant stand Angie. That’s why they cannot believe Brad could love any children, be they bio or adopted.
Brad has proved them wrong. In an interview, Brad said they are all blood and love them all
What kind of sick racists have descended on this thread and turned it into a forum for airing their disgusting prejudices? Luckily, few people feel the way you do. Germany is not a hated nation. On the contrary, it is very respected by the world (unlike our country, cough cough). Many in the US have very close ties to Germany. Every year, I see Oktoberfest festivals, where people of German descent gather with those who want to share in the festvities. German is the #1 self-reported ethnicity in this country. Tens of millons of people, including me, have German last names and ancestry. So to the bigots posting on this thread, if you live in the US, there is a good chance you have that ugly German blood, that you so hate, running through your veins.

Whooop!!!! Love it… you nailed it . Great post…
Speaking of numbers, anyone know how angelina’s vogue cover did?
First of all how do we know Angie even said she was going to stay home. Maybe she didn’t even say that. Maybe someone else did. Maybe she said she would be home for awhile until her next project start, and it was interpreted as staying at home. I am certain Wanted didn’t just spring up from the ground. Angie knew about this before the adoption. Movie deals just don’t happen. Remember the script went through a rewrite, which means she knew about the movie in advance of the adoption. You can’t defend everything that is printed about you. Once you start you will be defending yourself the rest of your life. The tabs will have won, because they are getting quotes from you. Quotes mean more stories. Everyone assumes that Angie really said she was staying home. We don’t know. Just like we don’t know anything about these people unless we hear them say so. And remember they were in Vietnam and so much misinformation has come out of there concerning this adoption and Angie. Taking the pictures was different than having screaming papps running after Pax. It was controlled and probably had only one or two people taking pictures. The pictures look so serene. It wasn’t a mad house. In the next few weeks it is going to get even crazier on these threads and in HW and the world of tabs because there will not be any pictures of them. Therefore no news, therefore no sales, therefore no hits on blogs. People stop your in fighting. We need to just stop and think. These people mean money to a lot of people. Last night the entertainment shows were boring. Who really cares about Lohan and the rest? Angie might never have said anything. Remember the blob comment? It was taken totally out of context. Maybe same thing with staying at home. As a matter of fact, she is staying at home. Has anyone seen her? They say she was in Chicago, any pictures? Don’t think so. She is staying at home. Peace.

I wrote post #245. I am not saying or lobbying others not to read. I am just saying why I dont read that recap because I dont want to keep track of tabloid and facts. I am afraid I will get that mixed up.

Yup, I’m calling you out. Please return to the rock you came from. The only attention sheeker is you. Bye.
collection of opinions on us mag Says:
Let’s look at this us magazine
(1) Us Weekly said last week that Shiloh was with Angie in Vietnam. It turned out that us mag was wrong . Janice is pissed for that and for not having the exclusive pics.
(2 )People had (won) the pregnancy announcement cover.That same week when People magazine hit newstands, Us Weakly ran a story saying Angelina wasn’t pregnant. Janice Minn and Us Weakly are pathetic!
(3) US mag also announced Aniston’s engagement. It turned out the mag was WRONG.
(4) US mag also said Angie gave 2M to the orphanage. It turned out the adoption agency said was RUBBISH.
US WEEKLY ARE GREEN WITH ENVY BECAUSE THEY DID NOT GET PAX’S PHOTOS
________________
very well said. From now on, I’m going to keep track of all the mistakes which us mag made.
to all the haters, please read and use your brain:–
(1) The industry trade paper, variety said the movie “wanted” was pushed back to May instead of April . Even though the movie “wanted” is going to start filming in May, we dont know whether it’s the beginning of May or end of May. If you do a search on this movie, you will notice that Angie is NOT the main character in this movie. She is playing a SUPPORTING role. She might not be due on the set until later, or even the beginning of summer. Until there are pictures of her on the set, that is until there are MORE FACTS, we should refrain froming an opinion.
(2) US mag talked about Angie is also booked for “Changling” and ” Atlas Shrugged”. Again, if you do a search on “Atlas Shrugged”, this movie is no where close to start filming. In fact, it might not even start until 2 or 3 years from now. Having a movie in the pipeline does NOT mean she is doing all these movies all at once. To suck up everything this mag tell you and start writing opinions against her is NAIVE.
(3)Being a good mother does NOT mean 24/7. Stability does NOT mean staying put in one city. Stability means living in the same roof, having the same parent, moulding by the same parents, getting instructions, directions, training by the same parent. Many actors/actress bring the kids on location. Think, Wil
Smith. Angie has said in interview that breakfast for the children is the same time everyday whether in Europe or in the USA. Same thing with bed time, every day it is 8 pm , always the same even they are in a different country. To sum up in one sentence, stability means having the SIMILAR routine.
(4) There is NO actual picture of Angie on the test screen in Chicago. Why????? Could this be made up? Is this from a source, insider, a close friend which means nameless, which means NON-EXISTENT? Will us mag’s claim stand up in court?
To all those haters, forming an opinion against her means you SUCK UP everything this tabloids said. It means you dont do CRITICAL THINKING.
