Look, you are NOT a fan. LIAR. Your concern is FAKE. Let me say this, if you are a true fan and not spreading RUMOR, nothing bad will come to you. If you are lying, God will judge you.

You/Me: I’ve benn, very briefly to Aguascalientes, on my way to San Luis Potosi - where “The Mexican” was shot. Hope to chat with you soon, but, right now, I really need to get some sleep.

Good night everyone!

BCBG I love the idea that it will be your first trip to Europe! Wish you could stay there a bit longer too, but Paris and Rome are wonderful choices. You will never forget this trip.
If you need ideas for Rome or anything, just let me know. I suggest you take some traveler’s checks with you - you can change them at any bank, just in case. If you don’t use them you can change them back when you’re home.

I agree with Larry Says:

whatever I just hope she really happy and is with someone who REally does love her. I doubt it though. imo she’s not happy…
===================================================
Not meaning to be snarky and all, but why do you think she is not happy?

From what I am able to ascertain by Gawker’s breakdown - it’s the same tact in this latest smear job.

This article in my opinion is being orchestrated by either one of the top PR monsters in town (Huvane) and/or encouraged by one (or more) top PR agencies - to get Angelina to break. If that doesn’t happen (and I have no doubt they are fairly sure Angelina will NEVER cave) she will be used as an example to anyone in the business who gets the notion to NOT have a PR guru/agency on hand. I can hear their picth now — ‘If Angelina was a client - that article would never have run.’ You see how Huvane does his business? Threatening lawsuits (by the way - seen any Maniston sucks threads on Perez Hilton lately?), scrolling blogs, keeping up with what’s being said, inferred — instructing his clients to clarify all the tabloid **** to anyone who will listen, threatening media outlets with restricted access to OTHER celebrity clientele if they mess with someone in their stable….that’s how they keep some of these rags in line…….
__________

Cliniqua, I agree with you. I firmly believe Huvanne and one of those top PR firm is mad because Angie does not use a publicist.

Goodnight and Good luck.

I am a long time Angie fan. just because I am not blinded by the Brangie I am labeled a fan of maniston? whatever I just hope she really happy and is with someone who REally does love her. I doubt it though. imo she’s not happy… you people act like she is not human and doesnt get hurt. She is not a robot she has feelings, jerks.

LOL! Aww poor you. I guess because no one agreed with you we are supposed to all feel sorry and pitty you.

Are you SURE your not an Aniston fan.

:S

to all the haters -

Your FAKE concern in very obvious in your post.

I know you guys are working, spreading rumor for the next week magazine. But remember, I guarantee you that YOUR BAD DEED will eventually come back to you.

I want to have Brad Pitt’s baby then I also want to have Bono’s twins. God I love those two!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Penelope is quite hot too :)

I agree with Larry @ 03/29/2007 at 1:20 am

BCBG, do you really think she’s happy with all thats surrounding her? brad barely says a word about the woman, she has the magazines after her left and right, and she’s blamed for everything that’s wrong under the sun. She cant ignore this stuff when she’s in l.a. Really BCBG, think about it.

signing off

I agree with Larry @ 03/29/2007 at 1:23 am

I forgot to add her mother died not too long ago and her brother goes and tells a ragazine that she’s not eating. like that’s something she needs people to know.

Min is a monster @ 03/29/2007 at 1:27 am

LOL Go already! Take your blame game with you. You want to take the media’s horrible treatment and throw it at Brad Pitt? Talk about stupid. Rarely do I call someone stupid but you really are . Your like the many “fans” out there that can’t seem to see what is right in front of you! Janice Min! and her elk are the one’s that deserve all your anger not Brad Pitt. You want her to break up with him because of their harassment of her. You want to judge him because u haven’t read him talking about their personal feelings for each other? Angelina says VERY little her self about their relationship. She keeps that to herself. She is willing to talk about the kids and that but the rest is for them.

I’m so sick of the misguieded judgment from the likes of you! You can’t see anything but your misplaced anger.

She’s with Brad Pitt! suck it up and deal with it!

Keep this in mind @ 03/29/2007 at 1:35 am

484/485

Stop read and more importantly stop believing tabloids.

Angelina just came from Chad where she met with women who had been rape. Kids that had seen their parents killed. People that don’t have a home. Angelina has a bigger preception of life than you seem to have. Go back and read the Newsweek article.

What Brad says in a magazine are for outsiders. What he says and does while behind close doors matters.

You are not a long time fan. A long time fan would know better than believe that Jamie would say ANYTHING to a magazine without his sister knowing about it. Most certainly he would not talk to a rag.

“I think a line must be drawn in the press between what’s rumored and what’s opinion and what’s fact. Most things are just opinion and they’re printed up as fact. Unfortunately, people don’t look that far. They just take what comes in little quotation marks as gospel. “~ Brad

“I truly believe that gossip stuff is usually written by petty, miserable people who have no capacity to find fault with themselves. You have to annihilate them or ignore them” - Brad

To poor I agree with Larry Say @ 03/29/2007 at 1:54 am

I agree with Larry Says, you must be so miserable to hate people you don’t know or ever will know. This is really serious, you have a problem. Honestly, get some help or get out of the friggin closet and call Larry!

Too thin Says:

“She has never been other than a thinny, that’s just the way she is built.” Not true. Go back and look at her face and arms in the pregnancy pics where she wore the scarf on her head interviewed by Ann Curry. There are also many pics out there where her face is much fuller and her arms don’t look skeletal. If she eats normally she actually plumps up and I don’t think she likes that because her face gets quite round and she has a double chin.

—————————————

Hahahaha! Shaddup FOOL! Angelina at her heaviest weight (which wasn’t heavy at all), NEVER had a double chin, so give it up hater. She actually can’t get one, it’s the way her jaw is set - unlike most of us, even when she tucks her chin into her chest, she STILL can’t even make a double chin. Stop with the bitterness and hatred because she’s beautiful, and you are straight up fug. Angelina can’t help that she’s been blessed and you’ve been cursed. Don’t take it out on her.

ABC owns half of US weekly. Check out this old conspiracy theory:

News broke in May that Us Weekly was working with the FBI to investigate a rash of hacking into its computer system. The suspect? Former staffer and current paparazzi agency head Jill Ishkanian, who was accused of stealing information about Charlie Sheen. Last month it was revealed Us’ systems weren’t so secure: not only could Ishkanian access the tabloid’s email, but so could the very celebrities the mag writes about, thanks to rank abuse of staffer Amy Sultan username and password. But aside from being able to scoop Us at its own game – which, to be fair, is a pretty big deal – thus far the scurry to close the leak hasn’t had a big item on which to pin Janice Min’s fear. Thanks to the wide open net our inbox casts, we’ve got at least one rumor on which we can lay our suspicions.

I know exactly what Us Weekly is now terrified will eventually come out in the investigation. Do you remember the Ryan Seacrest/Teri Hatcher in Malibu kissing pictures taken on March 25, 2006, that ran EXCLUSIVELY in Us Weekly? No surprise to savy media watchers, but it seems the pix were a set up, (without poor Hatcher’s knowledge) between Us’ West Coast Editor Ken Baker and his longtime BFF Ryan Seacrest. There is serious concern that there are now copies of those incriminating e-mails now floating around cyberspace that prove the two were involved in setting up the Desperate Housewives star. With ABC owning half of Us Weekly, how will it look to the bigwigs there to have Hatcher, their biggest star, made an object of ridicule, or a temporary beard for the American Idol host?Ken Baker involved in under-the-radar spin? Psshaw!

————————

Fascinating stuff ‘please’ - thanks! The close relationship between Seacrust and US Mag is suspect, they’ve got the goods on him - it all makes sense. It’s no coincidence that he started the tide of negativity and had actually created the red carpet science fiction about Angelina at the GGs that US Mag would use to run their poll dissing Angelina, then post a subsequent article slandering her GG appearance and almost everything under the sun (something which was oddly picked up almost verbatim by Caryn James, a low level entertainment reporter of the NYT) They’re all in cahoots. Seacrust follows along most likely due to the fact US has the goods on him about being gay. I think soon after the set-up was exposed, US and Ryan came to some sort of agreement that they’d work together and funnel and feed each other’s stories (like the fictitious Ryan Seacrest slur that Angelina was acting soooooo nasty on the red carpet nonsense….US ragazine had him start that, and then THEY picked it up…it’s clear now it was created out of whole cloth — it’s been made even clearer considering the latest issue of US is continuing that exact same vein they had to cut short because Angie’s Mom died…they always intended to make a run with this story themselves, Marcheline just threw a wrench in it).

I recalled that Teri Hatcher said something really dismissive and slightly ridiculing of Ryan after that whole incident. She found out about his using her - and while she didn’t come out and hold a press conference exposing him, neither was she going to just play along either….

Here’s what she told Oprah when explaining the whole weirdness:

On todays Oprah Winfrey Show, Teri Hatcher of Desperate Housewives opens up about her short-lived romance with Ryan Seacrest and the infamous shots of them kissing on the beach. According to Hatcher, the American Idol host dumped her an hour after the photos were taken.

Teri: “It was our third date, but it was our first alone. We went to this shacky place, way way outside of L.A

Oprah: How did the paparazzi get there?”

Teri: I have no idea, but interestingly enough I haven’t seen him since that day.”

Oprah: Not a word since then? What did he say? What did he say when the pictures came out?”

Teri: The pictures came out three days later. We knew they had been taken. It must’ve bothered him though — bothered him enough that an hour after they were taken he called and said ‘I don’t think I can do this with you.’”

Oprah: He did? Why?

Teri: “I don’t know.”

Oprah: Was it because you were too high profile?”

Teri:It was because I ate too much lobster. [laughs] No you’d have to ask him.”

Very obviously he dumped her because the pic is all he was after in the first place - something to say, See, I kiss girls - I’m het!,LOL. He’s in US magazine’s pocket and he literally drives their stories for them around awards show time - and on his E! show as well, since he has access, and they have the goods on his ‘Teri Hatcher’ beard situation.

America Says Oprah is the ”Model for Healthy Living,” Says LIME Poll

By BusinessWire

NEW YORK, BUSINESS WIRE — To coincide with the launch of LIME’s national “Live The Change” campaign, the #1 healthy living brand surveyed adult Americans to find out their views on celebrities’ influence on the healthy living and green sector. As the leading brand dedicated to providing information and entertainment on living a healthier, greener and more balanced lifestyle, LIME (www.lime.com) today released survey results featuring a selection of celebrities known for their healthy and green lifestyle, plus those in the public eye who have garnered headlines for their “less than healthy” lifestyles. The survey produced some surprising and not so surprising results. Full survey and results are posted on http://www.lime.com. Highlights include:

Oprah is “the Model for Healthy Living” according to LIME’s “Live the Change” poll as she tops the list (at 47%) of LIME’s query about celebs who have most helped Americans re-evaluate their own views on the importance of living a healthier and more balanced lifestyle. Of the remaining celebrities listed in the survey, Lance Armstrong comes in at a healthy second with 37%, but Ozzy Osbourne (8%) and Tyra Banks (8%) are tied at the bottom of the list.

Al Gore certainly has a seat in the “Green” house” with 79% of Americans choosing him from the list of notables in the survey as the one who they feel has most influenced their views on the importance of living a “greener” life. Robert Redford (11%), Leonardo DiCaprio (6%) and Susan Sarandon (4%) may need to produce an Academy Award winning documentary to raise their profiles in this category.

Bono leads LIME’s list of celebs when it comes to raising awareness about his cause — AIDS: Bono brought in nearly half of the votes (48%) among the list of celebs in LIME’s survey asking which one has made the greatest positive impact on raising social consciousness about their causes. Of the remaining celebs listed in the survey, Angelina Jolie came in second (25%) for her work with the U.N., with significantly less Americans selecting Ben & Jerry (16%) for Saving the Planet and Harry Connick, Jr. (11%) for Katrina.

Julia Roberts tops LIME’s list of celebs who has the most “organically” grown body - no additives or nips and tucks! Of the celebs listed in LIME’s survey, Arnold Schwarzenegger may want to get some tips from Julia Roberts (who drew 67%) on how to achieve an “organically” grown body - where only Mother Nature has played a role. It’s certainly not easy being “all natural” when you’re in the public’s eye - even Madonna surprisingly only drew in 17%, with Arnold trailing behind at 12% and Adrian Grenier with only 3%.

Britney Spears needs to begin to “live the change” and take steps towards striving for a healthier and more balanced lifestyle — and stick with it! Of the celebrities listed in LIME’s survey who have received press headlines for their troubled lifestyles, Britney topped the list with a whopping 81% saying she needs to “live the change.” In the eyes of Americans, very few feel that Lindsey Lohan (14%) needs to re-assess living a healthier and more balanced lifestyle, while there was barely a blip of Americans choosing Eminem (4%) or Mischa Barton (1%).

Americans most want to “partner yoga” with Cameron Diaz! When Americans were asked which of the celebrities from LIME’s survey they would most want to “partner yoga” with, 44% of Americans chose Cameron Diaz to do yoga with as a partner, more than double the folks that would want to partner with Jada Pinkett Smith (22%), L.L. Cool J (18%), and Mark Wahlberg (17%).

Americans would most like to spend a day doing “green” things like recycling with “green” celebs like Salma Hayek (37%) and Brad Pitt (30%). Significantly fewer Americans chose the other celebs listed in the LIME survey: Sting, who brought in only 19%, and Daryl Hannah, who brought in only 13%, will have fewer fans wanting to go to the local dump to sort trash with them.

That Us weekly article was pure lame. If this was written 2 yrs ago when I had just started my fascination on Brangelina, I might still believed them but not anymore, those bashing of Angie didn’t make me a lesser fans but more of a fans of Angelina Jolie.

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.
*******************************************************************
While everybody was bickering about the US Weekly story and Brad & Angie’s relationship, you forgot what the main topic was…fighting poverty. This young woman posted to remind you and how you can become involved. This is why Brad and Angie stay in the spotlight. They constantly want to remind us what really is important. Not what the public thinks of their relationship, but how we can work together to end poverty in our lifetime. This is one of the main reasons I’m a big fan of Brad and Angie’s. Their compassion and commitment towards those less fortunate supersedes any negativity that may come their way from the media.

Pax Thien’s grandpa: Our family won’t trouble Jolie
11:43′ 28/03/2007 (GMT+7)
VietNamNet Bridge – An article on British tabloid News of the World about Pax Thien Jolie’s maternal family troubles Pax Thien’s grandparents, who talked with Vietnamese newspaper Lao Dong about the misleading article.

It is undeniable that the article’s writer met you. So can all the information be false?

Mr. Pham Chien, Sang’s grandpa: The writer of the article is a foreigner. He met us through the introduction of a friend of our family. He said he wanted to write about charity and the main person of interest was my mother, who is now 101 years old. That’s why we agreed to talk to him and allow him to take picture. As for the details in the article, they are simple untrue.

Can you clarify?

Mr. Pham Chien: Firstly, we haven’t seen Sang, let alone bring him to Tam Binh Orphanage as mentioned in the article. Secondly, our family hasn’t signed any paper concerning our grandchild. This is the job of Tam Binh Orphanage. We were merely informed of the adoption by the orphanage and the HCM City Department of Justice. Our family has nothing to do with any lawsuit or money demand.

So what is the truth?

Ms. Pham Thu Trang, Sang’s aunt: I still remember very clearly the moment Dung, my sister, went to Tu Du Hospital to give birth. Our family was indeed in very difficult conditions then. Imagine that we only needed VND 10,000 (US $ 0.75) to live for a whole day. So it was beyond our means to pay for hospital fees or bring the child up. I saw the baby lying in the special treatment room. He was only 2.1 kg in weight and I thought Sang wouldn’t survive. But what could we do?

Mrs. Vo Thi Nhan, Sang’s grandma: Trang came home and told me everything. I felt terrible when she said the baby wouldn’t be able to live. I told Trang to take Dung home and let the hospital take care of the child. Dung came home pale and thin. So I told my husband that she was suffering from malaria, and needed rest.

So for the last 3 years, have you received any news about the child?

Mr. Pham Chien: No. Our family simply wanted to forget all about the incident. And I thought the child was dead. We didn’t bring up the subject for fear it would hurt Dung.

What about the child’s father? Did he work at the textile factory where Dung worked?

Ms. Pham Thu Trang: Dung found a job in the factory through my recommendation. She started to work there at the beginning of 2004. She had already delivered by then, so how could there be a married man working in the same factory that made her pregnant as written in the article?

So why did Dung recently leave home? Did the news that her biological son was adopted by a famous person make her want to do something?

Mr. Pham Chien: No, not at all. She left because of me. On the 15th of the lunar January, I was angry because she had stayed out the night before, and scolded her, “You have to choose one way or the other: You’ll stay at home and be obedient, or leave.” So she left and hasn’t since returned.

Question of fact. Pax was abandoned. The head of the oprahage said Pax had not relatives that he knew of . Now these grandparents say they were notified. What evidence is there that these people are his grandparents?

OT,,,this is funny. Can’t wait to see the O13 Trailer

Synergistic kiss
The much-ballyhooed kiss between two female Friends alumnae on FX’s Dirt came and went Tuesday night. Jennifer Aniston guest-starred in the show’s season finale as Courteney Cox’s old friend and rival. Story is, the two once shared an erotic night together. And at one point in Tuesday’s episode, they kiss. Aniston, who plays a lesbian, is mildly turned on. Cox indifferent. Audience asleep.

The sexiest bit came during a commercial break, in a steamy ad for Ocean’s Thirteen featuring Aniston’s ex, Brad Pitt.

It sounds like they have a daughter who gave birth and left her daughter at a hospital so NEWS OF THE WORLD found someone who knew the perfect candidates.These people are not Pax relatives.The truth always come out in the end.

The sad thing is the friend of the family is the one who got money from the tab for using them.How can a tab use a 101 year old woman to make a false story.SHAME

SorryI meant to write a daughter who left her son at a hospital.
