Something of interest —

I read where Sheryl Crow has come out slamming ‘American Idol’ saying it’s too commercial and that she’s “sad that people love it so,” she made other pretentious little “death of art,” comments too.

I found it strange that she’s making these comments, just as a former friend to the Goddess Circle (by way of Brad) Gwen Stefani has just wrapped up a great appearance on the show. Was that a jab at Ms. Stefani for the circle, are they pissed that she, Gavin and baby Kingston socialize with the JP’s. LOL Crow is also echoing Maniston who once said, “I hate that idol sh*t!” However, the news piece I was reading about Crow’s disdain, had the good sense to pointedly make fun of someone that would dare criticize American Idol, who had sold a number of her songs and turned them into car commercials, and who also can be found pimping for drug store hair coloring. They really clocked her. LOLOL.

Crow, in the same interview, went on to give a lecture on the tabloids and how people shouldn’t read them, as they ruin the quality of life — I had to laugh out loud at that, since it’s a KNOWN FACT that her good pal Maniston reads the tabloid sh*t all the time, and structures her every move around what they are, or are not, saying about her. I’m sure Crow knows this.

stranger -

Yes, I am excited. This will be my 1st time in Europe. I’m going for 9 days (actual sightseeing is 7 days). I am goint to Paris and then Rome via Air France. I’ve already booked the tickets and hotels. I have done most of the planning in Paris, like marking all the places on the map, the metro, and a tentative schedule for each day. Since I’m not joing a tour group, there’s a lot of prep work. But I plan on joining the guided tour at each museum because I am lazy. I want the guide explain it to me and point out the important things to me.

Yeah, many people told me about the gypsy children and the pick pockets.

I have decided to use credit card since the fee is only 3 % on foreign transactions. I guess it’s fair enough if I dont have to carry that much cash.

And by doing so, you opened your mouth and removed all doubt.

Brad Praised? LMAO…Brad got bashed just as much as Angie has. When I saw the cover of this issue, I was sad. This women just lost her mom and Janice Min because of jealousy decides her mourning period is over and they can take shots. I just reread her Vouge interview, and what she said is comforting,

“People can think whater every they want about me if it makes their time at the checkout counter go a little quicker….”

Angie is a strong women, she would not have survived these past two years of attacks if she was not a strong women. Look at the hate thrown her way after the Vanity Fair Interview(both Brad and Angie got bashed) How did they respond? They lived their life. I don’t know how she does it. I don’t know how Brad and Angie endure attack after attack. Angie is the mother of his kids, Us Weekly is attacking Brad’s family. Why? Because they don’t like choices he made, Because they are not living their life the way Janice Min wants them too. It is actually none of those reasons. This attack is all about access to Brad and Angie. People magazine once again got the pictures and they are pissed. This is retaliation. I do know watching Larry King live that Angie says she ignores tabloids, but this has to hurt her family and Brads family, they are human beings. If Brad came out and said something it would make the situation worse. Ignoring these scum is the best way to deal with it. I just hope that Brad and Angie remain strong and focused and ignore the nastiness, Brad is use to this , Angie not so much. I don’ understand why women are so bitter (including my sister, who is laughing and saying nasty things as I type..lol) Make no mistake it is women driving this.

I agree with Larry @ 03/28/2007 at 10:52 pm

I wish Angelina would have thought twice about being with Brad. This media and haters hate fest wouldnt be on and poppin right now. He gave her nothing but haters hating on her and wishing her the worst cause she’s with HIM. He doesnt get blamed for nada not even his funked up marriage… that was 110% angie’s fault too. wtf. If they fail it will all be tossed on Angie’s shoulders… Brad will let her take the fall… so she’s stuck.

Hey guys — we’re in the habit of sometimes posting lyrics and songs that are perfect for Brad and Angie. I’ve just bought Elliott Yamin’s CD - it is UNBELIEVABLE -buy it, you won’t regret it…he is amazing…..(that’s why I got so pissed about Crow, yeah — Chris Daughtry should be back at Sears working on radiators, and Jennifer Hudson should have gone undiscovered and be destined to work the fryer at BK’s, or Fantasia could have kept on being an impoverished teen Mom in North Caroline, or Elliott destined to stay unknown in Virginia with an amazing voice that no one would have ever heard….- F.U. you snobby hypocritical b*tch Sheryl Crow!! - who are YOU to say these people should stay buried and not get their shot?! Ugh - that just made me soooo damn mad) ….anyhoo - there’s a song on it called “I’m the Man” (perfect for Chin…hahahaha - I’m just kidding…I digress) — and it’s sooooooo right for them, here are the lyrics! Buy this CD!

ELLIOTT YAMIN LYRICS

“I’m The Man”

When I woke up with the sunlight and dreams echoing through my head
And I heard you breathing softly I remembered the things you said
There is no time, there is no place
That you would rather be
That the good times or hard times as long as you’re here with me

Cause I’m the man who holds my ground
I’m the man who sticks around
I’m the man to hold you tight
I’m the man in love with you (with you)

When I lay down and the moon is bright at the end of a working day
Got a feeling I believe it and I won’t let it slip away
There is no time, there is no place
That you would rather be
In the cruel world on a cold night as long you’re here with me

I’m the man who holds my ground
I’m the man who sticks around
I’m the man to hold you tight
Cause I’m the man in love
And I’m the man to make it right
And I’m the man you kiss goodnight
I’m the man who won’t let you down
Cause I’m the man in love with you (with you)

Cause it can’t get much better
And all we have is time
As long as we’re together
I know it’s gonna be alright

Cause I’m the man who holds my ground
I’m the man who sticks around
I’m the man to hold you tight
Cause I’m the man in love with you
And I’m the man to make it right
And I’m the man you kiss goodnight
I’m the man who won’t let you down
Cause I’m the man in love with you

With you
With you
In love with you

WHY is Angelina always attacked and Brad is always PRAISED?????

****************************************

I’ll tell you why? Because she’s a woman. Period. Not only that but a beautiful, successful dynamic, one who is a mother and humanitarian with a colorful past.

The powers that be at the tabloids (mostly women) and the gossip hate blogs (women and gay men who hate women) are just plain jealous of her. You would think there was no one in Hollywood with their sleazeball tactics.

I think the feminist organizations in this country will be alerted to people like Ms. Min who use female celebrities as their favorite punching bags whereas they treat men with kid gloves by naming them sexiest, powerful, hot,….I’m sure these women’s organizations would love to know why actress and mommy Angelina are the target of out right lies. Someone who is a UN Goodwill Ambassador and is serious about her work yet there are publications creating fiction about her out of thin air or constantly discussing her youth. These editors don’t think do they? Does anyone know Angelina been to any events that Ms. Gloria Steinem has attended? Those of you of a certain age know who Ms. Steinem is. I would love it if Camille Paglia (who is a fan of Angelina’s) go off on these editors as only she irritatingly can.

To I agree with Larry

I think Angelina did think more than twice about being with Brad. I just pray they both remain strong, in Vietnam she said she was sorry for bringing “this ” (meaning attention/media circus) into Paxs life. However you are wrong about Brad not being blamed, Brad has taken a huge hit by being with Angie, he lost a ton of fans ( sure he gained some) but he lost even more. Brad was adored, yes people still love him , but for the first time in his career , his is attacked constantly( the view, Aniston fans, magazines) I know some of my friends who can’t stand him because of what they THINK he did to Aniston. It was why I can’t stand Aniston, she is a big reason why the attacks began and why they continue, If she had taken the high road and not done Vanity Fair things would be different. It is Team Aniston , whether it be her, her fans, her fans in the media, that is driving this hate. I pray for this family because as I said before they are only human.

I wish Angelina would have thought twice about being with Brad. This media and haters hate fest wouldnt be on and poppin right now.

screw the media she lost her freedom!

I agree with Larry @ 03/28/2007 at 11:11 pm

Brad did NOT get even half as much **** as Angie does. You are coocoo 4 coco puffs if you believe he does, sad.

Brad is a stand up guy, he will not let Angie take the fall (whatever that is ) if they breakup, she will always be the mother of his children. In fact look at Brad history, he has never bad mouthed any of his exs and up until Aniston , they never bad mouth him. I think this has to hard for her, and it is what worries me the most, she said she values her freedom, and by being with Brad she has lost it for sure. If she left Brad today, she would still be hounded. I hope they remain strong. I hope this media attention dies down.

I agree with Larry @ 03/28/2007 at 11:17 pm

Brad stole her freedom, maximus. She must want to flyher plane every single day now…it’s her only way to feel free now. ” a prayer for the wild at heart kept in cages”

I agree with Larry

But he still gets it, and don’t understand why people want to blame him for the attacks on Angie. What in the world could he possibly say or do to stop these attacks. Anything he says will make these attacks worse add fuel to the fire.

Frenchy, loved your post.

I personally think there could be an entire ‘Angelina Jolie’ class in some kind of Women’s studies program in academia (don’t laugh, I actually heard Keanu Reeves had one at some point - lol). But seriously, she is such a powerful public female - that in many different ways can be seen as even more symbolic and empowering than people like Hilary Clinton. Angelina Jolie on the wing of that plane, her pregnant belly showing…the images of her, can be polarizing among some, but what is most apparent is that you can be true to yourself, and you don’t have to compromise or not live up to your potential by pretending to be something your not, and trying to conform to some image. If you feel strong, and capable and can fly a plane at 5-6 months preg, do it - don’t cheat yourself by not doing what you want to do. It’s that statement she made before she hooked up with Brad. That it was hard finding someone who believes in her as much as her son does, that “he somehow thinks I can do everything,” and that she only has that with Mad - and he inspires her to be that woman that she’s always wanted to be. Now of course, she has that with Brad too - all in all she has 4 more people who think she can do anything! :-)

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie
27-Mar-2007
Written by: Michelle Baugh

They were at the movie theater with the family.

Brad Pitt is from Springfield, Missouri, where I used to live. Just after Shiloh was born, Brad and Angelina were in town, and the local news was forecasting where they were going to be spotted next. On a Wednesday afternoon, Brad and Angelina took Maddox, Zahara and Shiloh to the Wehrenberg Campbell 16 Cinema in Springfield, Missouri to see Happy Feet. I normally worked 8-5 Monday-Friday, but we had recently had an ice storm, and my office was closed to have a collapsed roof fixed. It also was coincidence that the tickets I bought were for an earlier show, but we arrived too late, so we traded in our tickets for a later show. Apparently, after we bought our tickets, Brad and Angelina bought the rest of the tickets for the same show. When we sat in the movie theater, my son and I were the only ones in there until the lights went down, and in walked the Brad and Angelina crew. I had first noticed the kids - being all different races, then it clicked who it was (since it was dark - I couldn’t make out faces). After the show was over and the lights were back on, it was easy to see their faces, and not wanting to be an annoying fan, I politely waved and welcomed them back home to Springfield. I had a brief conversation with Brad (since we went to the same high school). My 3-year-old son said bye and Maddox said bye right back. I asked if I could get a picture of their kids, and they agreed. I snapped a picture of Maddox and my son smiling, with their arms around each other before we left. They were very polite and sweet, not big-headed like I assumed most celebrities are. When we exited the theater, the employees were asking if we got any autographs, which we didn’t, and they proceeded to tell us how Brad and Angelina had bought out the entire theater, not knowing only 2 tickets had sold previously - to me and my son. It was a memorable experience and really put them in real-life perspective for me.

You called him/her maximus. Very friendly don’t you think. LOL

Happier than ever @ 03/28/2007 at 11:26 pm

Angie use to have a tatoo of an open window becasue she always seemed to want to know what “out there” was holding for her. She has gotten rid of that. She no longer needs “out there”.

Their love story is HOOOOOT!. I wish them the best. I think they are very complementary to each other.

________________________________________________________________

You are right, Angie is a very strong woman and the media has been trying to bring her down. They are mad because they haven’t succeeded and can’t understand why she just doesn’t break. The thing is though, after the GG smear job and everything else after that, what happened in her life excluding her mother’s death? She was nominated into the CFR think tank, she was offered two movie roles, we learned the St. John people were happy with her, she got a new son, and other things we probably don’t know about. The things is, if she wasn’t broken down in the past two years by the smear jobs, they are not going to break her. In life, especially with her being so outspoken and controversial, there will always be ups and downs but all that will matter is her getting through it all in one piece and she’s shown us that she’s capable of that and then some. With her type of personality, she won’t let them get to her. Alot of people would have had their spirit broken by now but she has the strength to endure it all. The people who really know her and who are close to her know who she really is and that’s all that probably matters to her. I believe that she/they will be okay and I’ll just keep on praying for them.

Hey Clini , thanks for the post . I was getting ready to respond but who cares about these idiots . We ALL know they and their idol lost , so why bother. I want to thank you again for the wonderful fanfics….

Frenchy, a good one…thanks…

Why????????? Passing Through take a vacation.

JOSSIP’S TAKE ON LAST WEEK’S US-
This week’s tabloid wars were all about The Angelina, with People scoring the biggest get: exclusive photos of Pax and quotes from Big Mama. And why wouldn’t the Time Inc. tab have all that? They did fork over $2 million for the privilege.

Which meant the competition was left to scramble for access. It’s not like Us Weekly could’ve afforded to skip the story. And so they didn’t. And while Us’ take was shoved to a corner box on the cover (so Katie Holmes’ tale of captivity could be told), the copy inside tells a tale of scraped-together sourcing.

Reports CelebrityBabylon:

Us Weekly’s current cover has the side box: Angelina, Family’s First Days With Pax. But when People magazine has the real inside scoop, and the folks at what we like to call “Lies Weekly” are forced to scramble around after “told a source” type quotes, there’s bound to be BIG factual errors.
This one has to do with the actual location of baby Shiloh during the adoption of Pax Thien Jolie, 3, in Vietnam. People magazine, with its total access and exclusive pix says that only Angie, Maddox, 5, and Zahara, 2, were in Vietnam to meet the latest addition to the famiy; while Shiloh, 10 months, stayed home in Los Angeles with dad Brad Pitt, 43.

Meanwhile, Lies Weekly says that Shiloh was at the Park Hyatt hotel suite in Ho Chi Minh City with the rest of the kids –and they even have intimate details of conversations that went on inside the hallowed grounds: “Four bags of toys were brought into the suite, including two remote-control cars, a train set and a musical bear, while nannies scrambled to change baby Shiloh, 10 months. ‘You’ve got a pooey nappy, cutie!’ said one. ‘I know you want to play, but you smell.’ Then Brad Pitt, 43,–who was still filming a movie in L.A.– called the room to check on things…”

We’re still on Lies Weekly!

Get it? Because the tabloid, like, lies? There’s a fun game in here somewhere, where we rename Star to Fib and OK! to Whatever We’re Paid to Report.

SO TRUE!!!

GIVE IT UP. STOP THIS INSANE WHINING!! ANGELINA IS WITH BRAD BECAUSE THAT IS WHO SHE HAS CHOSEN TO BE WITH. ANGELINA FOUND WHAT SHE NEEDED AND WANTED IN BRAD. HE WAS HER CHOICE, NOT YOURS TO MAKE. SHE IS HAPPY WITH HIM. THEY STICK TOGETHER LIKE GLUE. SHE LEFT VIETNAM AND FLEW STRAIGHT HOME TO HIM. IT IS HER LIFE. YOU ALL SOUND LIKE JEALOUS HENS OR ROOSTERS.

Did you not read her V article in which she discusses how their decision to be together was something they did not just jump blindly into? That to be with Brad was something that she gave much thought to, that she knew what obstacles she and he would face, and that in the end they made the choice to be together. She decided that he was the one for her and the one to be the father to her kids.
