Papa Pitt Picks Up the Kiddies at School

Papa Pitt Picks Up the Kiddies at School

After dropping them off earlier this morning, Papa Pitt picks up 5-year-old Maddox and 2-year-old Zahara (not pictured) after school at the US Embassy on Thursday in Prague, Czech Republic.

Gold star for Maddox!

Meanwhile halfway around the world, Brad’s green-housing project with Global Green started in New Orleans today. He told People, “The greatest victory for me will be when the first people move into one of these green homes – when they can put their key into that lock, sit down at the table, have dinner with their families and live their lives. That’s what we’re getting closer to with this announcement today.”

jared, it’s been so long since i’ve hung out here regularly, i’d almost forgotten how awesome you are! the pics are great. we see the jp’s much more often when they’re in europe.

Thank you Jared.
Wow, Maddox loves Daddy. What a happy family. God Bless them and more power to the Jolie-Pitt family

I LOVE THEM!!!!!!!! I WANNA HUG THEM!!! LOL

OMGG I’LL NEVER TELL A.D!

precious

Madd is a cutie. :)

Your the best JJ! Blessings and peace to this family.

Don’t they have irons in Prague? Brad looks so rumpled and that hat is so dorky.

piper, with a low @ 05/10/2007 at 4:13 pm

How cute.

Can’t get enough of the BAMPZS love, babe!

That’s a perfectly okay outfit to wear to pick up your kid up from school…rumpled and all. Every other father would be fine picking up his kid from school looking like that. Brad and Angie deliberately dress the same way day after day to make the papparazzi’s photos of them worthless. Mags are not going to pay big bucks for the same look (inner shirt changed) every day. Same thing Angie did when she was pregnant. she wore the dickens out of that black pants and pretty much had four tops she interchanged.

Original Curious @ 05/10/2007 at 4:22 pm

Thank you JJ. Love seeing the man and his children.

I’ve been reading more snippets of Angie’s interview with Reader’s Digest (Lainey even has a link to some audio!) and it’s AWESOME!

Voted - seems to be a big BonJovi contingent voting as well.

My goodnesss, I can never catch up with all the new threads….thanks JJ, you are awesome. Well, Mad looks happy to me….who said these kids are sad?…huh?..huh?….muahhhahahahaha….

Jared, Jared, thank you, man the mowhak (i hope i write good) of Mad is gone…..,cute cute pics, i love it, please vote his dad….

I wonder if that pap has had a background check or just some creep with a past? Thanks ladies (cult members) for bring him to Mad’s school. Good job to you ..

JJ, love the site, love the pictures. But please stop with all the drawn in stars, hearts, etc. It’s so “perez” of you. And I’d rather never be reminded of that trash.

Andrómeda @ 05/10/2007 at 4:42 pm

Lovely….Mad is so cute, and Brad is hot as always…Thanks JJ

Hi Gitane, how are you? Nice to see you here again, I wanted to tell you thanks for the mag, I can´t thank you enough.

yeah right @ 05/10/2007 at 4:42 pm

Excerpt from yet *another* Jolie interview - (she is such a media who*e, why does she constantly put herself in the spotlight??? Then turns around and complains about the press, yeah just hypocrisy) and yet *another CLASSIC* illustration of her consistant hypocrisy. Zahara came home in the middle of July. Based on when Shiloh was born, Jolie got pregnant at least the last week of August/first week of Sept. (even if she was due June 6 she would have gotten preggers around the middle of Sept) that’s *barely* ONE month and a half after getting Zahara. Not too mention - Jolie got preggers about 3 months after hooking up with Pitt - her ticket to the perpetual media attention she so longs for…..
_________________________________________________________________
Before I met Brad, I always said I was happy never to have a child biologically. He told me he hadn’t given up that thought. Then, a few months after Z came home, I saw Brad with her and Mad, and I realized how much he loved him, that a biological child would not in any way be a threat. So I said, ‘I want to try.’ ”
____________________________________________________________________-

what happened did brad forget to pack any other clothes?

Original Curious, it’s not Bon Jovi fans it’s the people who don’t want Brad to win :-)

hello Andromeda! i’m very glad that you finally got your vogue! i’d given up hope that it would get to you since it took so long.

MORE GOOD NEWS FOR JOLIE-PITTS FAMILY,I AM SORRY FOR HATERS

You have to wonder why TMZ cares. We all knew this would happen but some act like they are surprise that Brad wants Pax to be his son and share his name.

Poor dears……NOT!!!!

ROTFLMAO at the haters…..Thanks for the links…..(ok god, I don’t mind the wrinkles)

Thanks for all the threads on the Jolie-Pitts Just Jared. Maddox has grown into quite the handsome, confident fellow, just like his Papa Pitt. I enjoyed reading the Reader’s Digest Interview, BP’s Global Green Interview and all the comments from fans. All the rest is just buzz buzz, nag nag, same old same old. Thanks again.

Can it really be good making your children go to a different school every few months? Not very stable life is it? How can they possibly adjust to new teachers and new students not to mention a new environment so often. This does not seem like the best situation for a child. I think Angelina just tells the public what they want to hear but she is really selfish. They don’t need to travel together so often when one parent is capable of staying home with the children and keeping them in one school and just traveling on school vacations. I’m not saying they aren’t a stable couple because they seem very strong together and in love but the kids really don’t need to be pulled in and out of different schools like that.

Yeahright —— it’s not popular to state the truth here sometimes, but Jolie got pregnant with Shiloh to seal the deal with Pitt. Most people realize sooner or later that a father is important in the mix. Maddox was already talking about wanting a daddy. He’s a boy, but little girls who are fatherless do the same thing. Once Jolie saw how good Pitt was with her adopted kids, she knew she’d better give in or else risk the chance that Brad would move on to another woman who would give him at least one biological child. Shiloh was a gift to Brad.
Pitt and Jolie don’t need marriage when they are so emotionally committed to their kids. Kids are a tremendous bond for people who want them. When you value the family unit and know how important it is to children’s happiness, you’ll do whatever it takes to protect it.

Mr and Mrs Smith @ 05/10/2007 at 5:06 pm

Thanks Jared for all these threads.

Mad is getting to be such a big boy, he’s such a handsome kid - and yeehaaa, schools out, look out!

Seal the deal? omg these posters must be children.. or at least very immature adults. Brad clearly is madly in love with Angelina. He is not the type of man who would be with a woman he wasnt in love with. Angie clearly is madly in love with Brad. She is like almost any other woman who loves children and wants children with the man she loves. She became pregnant..(with Brad’s help) why is this so hard to understand?

Mad is 5, Pax is 3, Zahara is 2……….get real will you.

RD: But at the Golden Globes, you seemed in a bad mood, and that was in The New York Times.
Jolie: Yeah. And that was when my mother was about to die. Others have said we were getting married. We are people who want a good newspaper and television report, so when it’s lies about us, it makes us wonder what else are they not double-checking.
____________________________________________________________________

Is Jolie inferring that she knew her mom was about to die? Because if that’s the case, why did she get on a plane and leave the country the very next day after the GG’s and stay away for 4 days - not too mention, Jolie went to New Orleans upon her return to the States and was notified in NO that Marcheline was on her way to passing…so, she didn’t even see her mother all that week, as Marcheline passed that Saturday. So, either Jolie did know and still left her mother’s side that whole week when she said, ” Yeah. And that was when my mother was about to die” -

or of course she didn’t know her mom was about to pass- which obvously makes more sense as to why the would leave and not be by her mom’s side - so, as usual, Jolie is simply just lying when she says she was in a bad mood at the GG’s because her mom was aobut to die - BULL!!!!! IfJolie left the country anyway, wow, that’s too heartless to imagine so obviously she’s LYING and what’s even more sick is using her mom’s passing as an excuse (lie) because it presupposes that she is caring and in a bad mood at the GG’s because of that caring and concern for her mother…..so obviously a LIE because to get
on a plane and stay away from your mother when you know she’s about to pass well that’s pretty cold. So, it’s NOT why she was in a bad mood….
She was in a bad mood at the GG’s because of her insecurity, Jolie had spent the better part of 2 years keeping Pitt outa LA and away from Aniston and the Cox family - now she had no choice and wasn’t happy that his old life people were there etc…oh you all know the truth anyway…I don’t have to go on….sorry wheher people or institutions - I like to point out the hypocrisy and the blatant lies….

I actually overheard two tweens talking about the “adopted kids” and whether Brad had actually legally become their father. Of course I set them straight, mentioning how this was addressed in Newsweek..Brad HAS adopted Mad and Z and will Pax as well.
Anyway..before i put my two cents in.. I actually heard them saying that since he wasnt really their dad, he would be free to leave angie and go back to jen–taking Shiloh, of course! SAD SAD.

The question is Who wouldn’t have BP’s baby? Let me seal the deal (all day, night, weekends, coffee breaks long). However, AJ beat me to it and it is obvious that these too are in love. BP is a mighty fine, good man. AJ knows she has a good man and believe me, when you find him, you don’t want to let him go. There are a lot of foolish people in the world, chasing fame, fortune and don’t appreciate what they have until it is gone. Too sad, too bad. Just because one woman threw away a good man, does not mean another woman will not love and cherish him. I wish BAMPZS all the best.

You were doing so good until that part. Your post went to the trash. I guess you forgot something, when Brad was filming Oceans 13 he lived in L.A for 3 months. But the rest is dead on, her mother was dying YET she was on a plane to vietnam and then she went back to NOLA. If you know your BEST FRIEND is dying you stopped everything and stay at their side.

What do their ages have to do with anything I’ve said? As a matter of fact, now that you bring up their ages why do they drop off Zahara at a different school everywhere they go anyway? She is only two there would be no harm in her “missing” school. Mad is five and supposed to be in kindergarten so he is school hopping because he can’t miss school right? It’s not me that needs to get real, it is the people who are in charge of the welfare of those children, i.e. their parents.

YEP. That’s it in a nutshell. She just used her mother as an excuse to answer the question without looking like a b*tch.

Wow , There were a lot of JP threads while I was sleeping. I love the RD interview. Its nice to see that the kids are spending time with other kids. I love that there have been no more pictures from the backyard.

Have you ever thought that AJ’s mother did not want her to sit at her bedside on a “death watch”. I am sure that AJ did not know the exact time or day her mother would have died. Her Mother taught her to be independent and to get on with her life. AJ has a partner and a family also. She was within reach if something would have happened to her Mother. STop nitpicking on a loving Mother and Daughter relationship that the two of them know better than any mindless drips on a blog. It would be so much easier if people took care of their own familes and reach out to their own Mothers, sisters and brothers.

===============================================

First of all, let me say that some people are just ‘too stupid too live!’

Are people really that stupid to believe that it would be announced to the world that the adoption was final? Anyone with an active brain cell would know that adoptions are sealed records and in most cases only the adopted parents and adoptees have a right to the information.

Also I will NEVER gotten this he is not their real father/daddy — it takes more than being a sperm donor to be a daddy. A dad picks you up when you fall, he goes to your school plays, he tucks you in at night, he feeds you, he puts clothes on your back, he gets rid of the monster hiding under the bed, he helps guide you on the right path without crushing your spirit, but most importantly he loves you and wants you to be happy!

btw good for you on setting the tweens straight! Maybe if their parents taught them the true meaning of family, they wouldn’t be so narrow-minded.

43
uh.. Says:

You sound so very judgemental.

Im sure she had visited her mother..maybe earlier that day….and it must have been hard knowing that her mom was not going to be getting better. No one knows when a loved one is going to pass..im sure she wasnt in the final stages of dying or Angie wouldnt have been anywhere else. Cancer is like that. When my dad was told there was nothing else to do..no more treatment..it was sad and hard to accept, but still he lived for several more months. We were told it could be weeks or months, no one knew. My dad insisted I went to school, and lived as normal a life as I could. He didnt want me sitting at his bed, waiting for him to die. When the final hours came, I got on a bus and I was there for him. He was happy knowing all the things I was doing in my life and I was glad I was there when he passed. I think Angie’s mom was the same, proud of her daughter…and not wanting her to stop living her life . I have no doubt she was in contact with her mother and the hospital at all times. Lucky for her, she could get on a plane at a moments notice.

Stop with the hate and calling someone a liar when you dont know of what you speak.

Have you two haters ever lost a loved one to cancer? I did, when Hospice told me that my cousin was going to die soon and there was nothing else the doctors could do, I asked them how long does she have, the answer was it could be days, weeks or months but it is terminal. So, I had to go back home and back to work. Hospice called me three days before she passed away saying I needed to get there! So, the point is she was my best friend but I had other obligations and I could not wait for months without going back to work. Unless you have been there just STFU!

My son went to school for the first time when he was almost two and half years old, almost,,,, but i brought him when he was two years and three months, here the education law in Holland, you may bring your child, when they’re 2 and 1/2 years, so if Brad and Angelina bring their child when they’re young why not, the systems is change, you can seek the add of raising your child via school of daycare, thats children learning how to playing together or singing together or take a nap together, the reason is one take along with the community since they’re young, that is good…..

Sorry but my father died of AIDS after a 4 year battle, and let me tell you, even when they tell you to go, you stay because when the person you loved most in the world is dying you have to be there. Some people run because they just do not have the balls to deal with the pain. Angelina run and I get that BUT use her own mothers dead to clean the rumors of the golden globes is just sick.

you can see that Brad was going to be with her bio or not.WHAT angelina did was tell Brad the type of relationship she was looking for and they both realised they wanted the same thing.She told Brad that she was only going to adopt,he didn’t run he stayed with her.

Let’s face it, there are men out there who wouldn’t have minded her getting preg with their baby but wouldn’t have given two sh*ts about Mad (BBT was one). So she was very cautious of that. Brad had to obviously reassure her and exhibit qualities and parental love just as strong as hers for Mad and Z’s. She sounds as if she was certain of Brad in that way, maybe even before she was certain of herself. That’s when Angelina said, let’s do THIS, y’all! ..and we get Shiloh in May of’06.

Hahahahaha! You’re a fool. Yeah that sounds like Angelina Jolie, going around trying to KEEP a man by getting pregnant. Bahahaha!! I have no doubt that Angelina wanted to show Brad she wanted his child, and give him something he hadn’t given up on, but it had nothing to do with any kind of pressure. Brad was in there already, a father to Z and Mad, and Angelina hadn’t made him any promises about bio babies to come. It was also serious too, because AJ had already said that only a man that could be a father to her son would be a permanent ficture in their lives. Brad took up that mantle no questions asked, IMMEDIATELY. What the haters are saying MAKES NO SENSE. There’s NO WAY, Brad would have insinuated himself into Mad and Angie’s life, parented him, loved him, then done the same thing with Z, been the only father she’s known, then hauled off and put a bio baby on the table with Ange and said, ‘put up or shut up, or peace out — see ya Mad and z!’ LOLOL Soooo delusional. That’s what you haters HATE most of all, that from the looks of it, Brad’s first priority was being with Angelina and having a family with her - he didn’t care how it came about. The fact that Angelina wants bio kids with him, and he her, are just cherries on top of the sundae. :lol:

Brava Aimee……excellent post!

My dad insisted we carry on with our lives. He didn’t want us sitting around waiting on him to die. It was hard leaving him but I knew it would make him happy and his last days on earth peaceful so I did as he asked.

I guess only people that have been through the death of someone dying from cancer can understand this. Or maybe they just don’t want to understand — just want to sit and judge other people actions during one of the most painful times a person will ever go throuh.

OMG, Angelina said so in the RD interview, and some of you dislike Angelina, brought about her mother passed away, a bit respect you guys, you may say dirty over Angelina Jolie, but not bring over her mother passed away,
Jared, please, you gives us nice threads, and those people always brings dirty on your site, do something Jared, please,

I’m sorry to hear about your father but plz get over yourself! That’s how you deal with the pain of losing a love one…you stayed when asked to leave and that’s the type of relationship you had with him but you have know idea what Angie or James relationship is with their mother. It seems that she prepared her kids the best way she knew how and asked them to continue their lives…b/c when she is gone they will have to anyway. Angie’s mother had been told once or twice that she was on death’s door only to turn it around and make it through….I’m sure both James and Angie thought this time was no different. Cancer kills as quickly as a stray bullet can and who knows how long Angie’s mother was giving.

BTW…. how chirp were you when you learned that your father was close to death? Were you all smiles at work/school/mental ward/home? I’ll take a guess that you put on that brave front but your heart was else where no?

What interview are YOU reading because I didn’t see anything like this in the RD interview. Oooohhhh, just putting YOUR own spin on things again. I see. Ok.
NOWHERE does it say WHEN Brad told Angie about not giving up on the idea of having biological kids. It certainly doesn’t read “AFTER Angelina and he had made a decision to be a family, that he told her he hadn’t given that thought up of being a Dad and it definitly doesn’t say he told her he wanted to be a biological father to HER kids. H e l l, for all you or anyone else knows Brad could have said that to her when they were still “just friends” and been speaking in general terms about the X OR the next woman he hooked up with.

anonymous @ 05/10/2007 at 5:54 pm

People feel that since Mad travels that much , there is no stability for the kid. I think you are worrying too much.

Stability for a child is NOT referring to staying put in one single city.

Stability for a child is referring to a child having loving parents, that one parent is not bringing a different boyfriend or girlfriend every few months, It refers to the parents who are loving, attentive and kind to their children. It refers to the parents who are not on drugs or alcohol. It refers to the harmony of the household.

People are too quick to jump to conclusion that Mad should stay put in one city for schooling and not do much travelling. I am sure Mad is being home schooled. There is nothing wrong with home school. The curriculum is more customized.

Social skills does not have to be achieved in a school environment. Mad can pick up tennis, or play with other children on the set. Home schooling is acturally more work. There are progress reports to file with the proper department. The child will be tested just like you and me.

If anything, this interview really implies Brad fell in love and was committed to being a Dad to Z and Mad, really not knowing if he would have a bio baby. THAT’S what I’m floored about. It was only after Angelina and he had made a decision to be a family, that he told her he hadn’t given that thought up of being a Dad to HER biological kids up.

Let’s face it, there are men out there who wouldn’t have minded her getting preg with their baby but wouldn’t have given two sh*ts about Mad (BBT was one). So she was very cautious of that. Brad had to obviously reassure her and exhibit qualities and parental love just as strong as hers for Mad and Z’s. She sounds as if she was certain of Brad in that way, maybe even before she was certain of herself. That’s when Angelina said, let’s do THIS, y’all! ..and we get Shiloh in May of’06. Bit me haters!!!! Whooo! LOLOL
______________________________________________________________
Cliniqua, excellent point! He was in love, and with Angie, even before he knew he would have a bio child with her. He fell in love also, with z and mad. What an amazing man… you are right..so many men would have not have felt the same way about the adopted children.
Both Brad and Angie are so lucky to have found each other!

Excerpt from yet *another* Jolie interview - (she is such a media who*e, why does she constantly put herself in the spotlight??? Then turns around and complains about the press, yeah just hypocrisy) and yet *another CLASSIC* illustration of her consistant hypocrisy. Zahara came home in the middle of July. Based on when Shiloh was born, Jolie got pregnant at least the last week of August/first week of Sept. (even if she was due June 6 she would have gotten preggers around the middle of Sept) that’s *barely* ONE month and a half after getting Zahara. Not too mention - Jolie got preggers about 3 months after hooking up with Pitt - her ticket to the perpetual media attention she so longs for…..
_________________________________________________________________
Before I met Brad, I always said I was happy never to have a child biologically. He told me he hadn’t given up that thought. Then, a few months after Z came home, I saw Brad with her and Mad, and I realized how much he loved him, that a biological child would not in any way be a threat. So I said, ‘I want to try.’ ”

wow. just read thru that first paragraph. that is what is so friggin hysterically funny about nitwits who proclaim they hatehatehate the ho and wish she’d go away. read how yeahright breaks down and counts out the friggin months — hell, she’s more in tune with jolie’s cycle than jolie is.

it’s so weird how they hate, but yet obsessively seek out every post about the couple, analyze every photo for the littlest detail, read and gobble up every little gossip morsel — esp the ugly ones — to confirm their hateful feelings. sad, sad people working out their pathetic issues of abandonment on a celebrity who doesn’t know and couldn’t care less that they exist.

For the past year, I have been lurking on and off on
this site, but have never posted, and throughout this
time some posings have made me upset, angry and
frustrated.

First, children who travel extensively are at a
disadvantage - This is such an asinine misconception.

As a youngster (1 of 3 siblings) my dad’s job entailed
travelling a lot. We did this from ages 3 to 16 to
various parts of the world. We had a private tutor
mostly, but also attended local schools - “In a
nutshell” - we each speak 5 languages fluently and
have an understanding of 3 more; the richness and
diversity of of each country and the people were
overwhelming. The friends (lifelong) we made, the fun
we had - no history or geography book could ever give
one that experience.

On the other hand, when one sees the squalor and
conditions that some people live in, one develops a
great deal of empathy for the underprivileged and the
appreciation of the life that we are accustomed to. I
would guarantee that if everyone of those critics who
has never left the constraints of their home decide to
travel, they would understand that this world is huge
and the ability to learn and co-exist with another
human being (no matter what ethnic, colour, religion,
rich, poor) will be extremely rewarding.

Secondly, because of my experience a a child, I have
been involved with UNICEF since 1990, and I find it
extremely offensive when individuals utter asinine and
nasty comments about children they do not know nor
have ever personally met.

I pity individuals who, for their inadequacies, have
to utter such inane comments referring to how a child
looks, the condition of their hair or their proposed
addiciton in the future. It would be awesome if that
hate can be diverted to something positive like
fighting poverty. Every child has the right to health,
tenderness and life, and this is why I admire people
like Ms Jolie.

I totally agree !!! Thank you for giving up a 1st hand account of your experience.

you can see that Brad was going to be with her bio or not.

WHAT angelina did was tell Brad the type of relationship she was looking for and they both realised they wanted the same thing.

She told Brad that she was only going to adopt,he didn’t run he stayed with her.

You are right. But the pictures obviously prove that Mad is not being home schooled. Instead hs is being dropped at different schools every month or so. There is no adjustment period, as soon as he gets comfortable they pull him out and send him off to another school in another city or country.

Frenchy Says:

Why don’t people realize that Brad & Angelina provide stability for their children by being with them and having the same routines all the time anywhere they travel?

Bedtime at 8 is the same anywhere in the world. Cereal breakfast at 7 am is the same anywhere in the world. Lunch time, playtime, and Brad spending time before each child goes to sleep stays the same no matter where they are in the world.

Stability means establishing a routine and sticking with it wherever you are.

Instability can mean living in one area but changing up routines on a whim, inconsistent bedtimes, meala times. naps, strange new faces in your core family, etc….

Haters are DYING!!!!!! @ 05/10/2007 at 6:04 pm

I LOVE that the haters are DYING with Angie’s new interview!! Yeah, the haters don’t like and cannot accept this interview; because this interview shows how in love and happy Brad and Angie really are!!!!

Cliniqua - bravo! I luv your logic, expression and energy. Say it loud and say it proud.

==================================

Nothing wrong with traveling. Military kids do it all the time, but they are rooted in one spot for at least three years. That is speaking from experience as I was a military brat. But these kids are moved around at least every couple of months. Not good. Why is that so hard to understand for some of you? EVERY COUPLE OF MONTHS. Sorry but that is not enough time to make “lifelong friends” or learn a new language. Aren’t any of you teachers or social workers? Surely you know the effects of being uprooted so constantly.

Good job as usual. ITAWU.

so, Angelina said that Brad hadn’t given up about bio child, yep Angelina wacht out!!!!, Brad never given up, well, Brad knew and know how to make a beautiful babies, he will never give up for the second, third, fourth and so on
I like the part of RD interview that Brad gives Angelina compliment if she take care the kids all day, and my thoughts he says that in locked door when the kiddies in bed,
to Cliniqua,
please make a fanfic over this…..you have soooomuch idea of these threads

For those of you who feign concern over stability for the kids…STOP! B&A are doing their best for these kids given their circumstances. Just like you do your best for your kids given your circumstances. Don’t apply your principles and limitations on all others, especially to those who have very, very different lifestyles to yours. You think too much of yourself when you do that. And it shows how little you know of their situation. Mind your own business. Better yet, devote your energy to your kids (assuming you have any and actually know something of the subject).

What lifelong friends can they meet at the age of five, three, two, or under one? And as long as the children are living in an environment were the parents maintain a level of stability, the children usually turn out just fine. Kids that come from a family of more than one kid tend to lean on each other which can bring the children close together as a unit. Also from what Angie has said in another interview…Maddox has had tutors…I think they take him to schools like the one in Prague to get him in a social environment with children his own age.

To be able to adjust to change is an important skill to have. I’ve seen many people who sticks to the old methods and dont want changes. These people are so set in their old ways that they cant ADAPT. Eventually they are replaced. I’ve seen many cases like that.

That’s why I admired the JoliePitt children. They are the lucky ones to have the opportunities to learn to adapt in different places.

Mad is only 5. When children are this young, the schooling is mostly learning to get along and be in a structured environment. From what I’ve read about Mad, he seems to be advanced in his math, reading and writing skill.

So, his going to different school, different country is just like going to a FIELD TRIP.

I’ve taken my children to the many east coast cities while my husband attended meetings. The teacher gave us a small homework folder. They werent missing anything. We visited many museums. It was like a field trip and they learned a lot.

Hey Lora, #44 — well I overheard two tweens talking in the store as well the other day, they just kept saying how ridiculous it was that these rags lied all the time, and mentioned seeing the romantic pics of Brad and Angie online. It’s clear that there’s a whole ‘nother demo getting their info from cyberspace and NOT from the old rags, old hags publish and their grandma’s read. LOL Oh, and the tweens also said, that Jennifer Aniston was very ugly and that no amount of public surgery could help, and that she should just go away. It was sad that they were so shallow, but hey…that’s what they said. :shock: :)

…as to #46 and other haters, I TOLD YOU GUYS that the particularly ugly rabid haters of Angelina would be pouring over her interviews, per their usual (yeah, they’re soooo not obsessed eh?) to extract whatever they can to beat to death. It’s typical of these jealous evil b*tches, that they have no shame, and infer things about a woman’s private intimate family life which they know nothing about. It’s convenient that they fail to mention that Angelina is a Mom with 4 kids, who was on location with Brad and who most importantly had a loving Mom who wasn’t necessarily keeping her apprised of when she would die, if she even knew herself. Marcheline had beat the odds for 7 years, and Angelina probably knew she was very ill and things didn’t look good, but many families don’t talk about ‘the cancer,’ they focus on the living. That is what AJ’s Mom wanted her to do. To have had AJ putting her life on hold, and hovering over her waiting for her to die, would have made her sicker. Most people who are sick and who love their families feel this way, and it’s selfish of their family to not heed their wishes and treat them like invalids not to mention, making them feel bad that they’re sick in the first place and responsible for their lives going on hold. She seems like the kind of loving mother who got strength from seeing her kids live, love and achieve great things.

Technically, Angelina could have been with Marcheline through Mr. and Mrs. and not worked, not traveled with Brad to Ethiopia, not adopted her daughter Z not fallen in love, and not had Shiloh….

Oh wait. I get it. THAT’S what you JEALOUS B*TCHES would have LOVED…Godd*mn that Angelina Jolie, she should have been SUFFERING not living her life and having babies. Muahahahaha!! I am so glad Marcheline was the opposite of you people, and really loved her daughter and wanted to see her happy, that probably kept her here longer than she would have been otherwise.

..wherever she is now, I’m sure she’s giving a hearty F.U. to all you haters who would have deprived her of her grandchildren with your faux concern that her only daughter wasn’t miserable and totally paralyzed by her illness so much so she didn’t live her life.

Knowing Angelina she tried to give her mother a good show and as many wonderful things as possible - she brought her Brad, which it’s said she loved like a son, gave her Z and Shiloh, and got to see her win awards from the UN, and complete a film near and dear to her heart.

The Children are Fine @ 05/10/2007 at 6:27 pm

Maddox has developed a lifelong friendship outside of the school environment. He’s friends with Adam Pearl, who is obviously more present in his life than anyone outside of the family realizes. There’s also no accounting for Maddox’s friends that we don’t see or hear about, celebrity and civilian. He has international playdates with these children and since their friendship isn’t contingent on what school they’re going to, he can see them anywhere at any time. With the family being in Europe now, they’ve probably set up more than one time where Adam and Maddox can come together and play.

The Jolie-Pitts understand that their lifestyle is unorthodox. Angelina’s already stated in a previous interview that at some point she expects her children to get tired of the moving, but until then, they’re just toddlers. The schools they attend are more like daycare. What’s most important to them is that Mother, Father and siblings are all together.

New Orleans project backed by Brad Pitt unveiled

Reuters
10 May 2007

NEW ORLEANS - The outlines of an eco-friendly residential development backed by actor Brad Pitt were sketched on Thursday in a New Orleans neighborhood hit hard by Hurricane Katrina.

Environmental group Global Green USA, which is building the project, said in a ceremony it would break ground shortly on the first of five homes and an 18-unit housing project designed to use 40 percent less energy than standard residence.

At a 1.25-acre (0.56-hectare) plot in the Holy Cross neighborhood in New Orleans’ Lower Ninth Ward, the dimensions of the first home, set to be completed by August, were marked with bales of hay.

The narrow, two-story house will borrow from New Orleans’ traditional long, thin “shotgun” shacks but incorporate such things as solar energy panels and energy-efficient windows.

Pitt, who funded an architectural competition for the buildings and helped select the winning designs, was in Prague where his partner, Angelina Jolie, is filming a movie.

He said in a telephone interview he wants the project to be an example for building in a city still recovering from the 2005 storm, and in the rest of the world.

“Our hope is to use this as a template for other people who are rebuilding, a template for other communities in other parts of the U.S. and the world, because this is the paradigm we have to adopt,” he said.

“We have to adopt it to get off our oil addiction, we have to adopt it for our health, we have to adopt it for financial reasons and we have to adopt it for respect of the future of the people who inhabit this place,” said Pitt, who has a home in New Orleans’ French Quarter.

Global Green said the Home Depot Foundation had agreed to be lead funder for the $9 million project, which is expected to be finished by August 2008.

Separately, it said it received $2 million from the Bush-Clinton Katrina Fund for a project to make New Orleans schools more environmentally friendly.

Pitt said the Holy Cross project was aimed at poor people, many of whom have been unable to return to New Orleans after fleeing Katrina.

It will include a community center that can provide temporary refuge if another storm hits, said Global Green president Matt Petersen.

Katrina caused 80 percent of the city to flood, and many areas, including the Lower Ninth Ward, are still damaged and mostly deserted

I sincerely hope that JJ will delete any sick posts pertaining to Angelina’s mother’s death. No one knows the details of her mother’s death and I think it is disrespectful for people to make any nasty comment on it. That’s totally crossing the line. Angelina has not revealed any private detail about it and that should be respected. By saying around GG was when her mother died is a fact, and she did not say she knew her mother was going to die or not, she simply said it was around that time that she died.

Man, I had to stand up and clap for that post. Great post.

My girl friend and I have always maintained that Shiloh was planned. We said as soon as his divorce was final, was it in August or September help me with the dates, they threw the pills away and went at it like bunnies. They waited which should make those who say she got pregnant while he was still married really unhappy. Not only was Shiloh wanted, they showed respect and restraint to x who showed no respect to them. They are a couple who care for others feelings, even if that caring is not deserved.

Listened to her interview. Angie is very thoughtful when speaking. She conveys a depth and warmth that is not usually seen or heard in HW. These are good people trying to be better. Let’s not even dignify the haters on this thread. There is just too much goodness going on here.

truth Says:

True quotes: Angelina Jolie confesses that Brad Pitt completes her. Although she was happy as a single mother, she only appreciated the true joys of family life after finding love with him.She says,

Before I met Brad, there were many times I’d be up exhausted with my son Maddox in the middle of the night and there was nobody there who appreciated my efforts. When he said his first word, there was nobody that I could look at and explode in excitement with. It made me very close to Mad, but now there’s the joy of waking up and sharing the burden. I think, as a woman, having a partner who appreciates you as a mom and who is going to remember those things about you and your history with the children is very special.

hehehehe papa pitt,more bio please!

JMO Says

I am a social worker. I don’t see a problem with what they are doing. First of all they are all so young and any friendships they have established at their age would probably dissolve as they got older. Secondly, they are with their parents, not nannies, grandparents, aunts, uncles, etc. which helps to stablize any situation they are in. Third, it would be worse if they were left at home wondering and worrying about when they would be coming home, and questioning whether or not they loved them, and if they did why didn’t they take me with them

I thought the interview was very up close and personal to what they share and I thought it was really good until she got to the point where she blamed her bad mood at the GG on her mothers death. Shame on her. i don’t think that had anything to do with her mood, she could of stayed at home with her mother if she knew she was dying at that awards show. She didn’t, and not only that, she did leave the next day.

I think it is just awful that she used that for her excuse and it is so very disrespectful to her dead mother that she would put her mothers deal on the same level of her bad mood.

Other then that, I think it sounds like Brad and Angie have the complete makings of a marriage between them.

It was sweet hearing about the transition for Pax. That sorta conversation could be interesting for other parents that have adopted or are planning to.

It sounds to me like they have each and everyday planned for years to come.

Oh here ya go Angie fans, they just anounced she will be talking about life and answering important questions on E News. Startng now!!

JMO Says

Sorry clicked submit comment by mistake.

I am sure they have consulated doctors, social workers, skilled professionals to get advice. No matter where they are AJ&BP are there to tuck them in at night. That is important in providing continuity, stability and continued trust. These are young children. If they were 10, 12, or older then there might be a problem. But at this age these children will be alright.

Doesn’t it seem funny that RD is this conservative magazine and yet it probably did the best and most honest interview without an obvious agenda of any magazine. You would think that from RD reputation the x would be better suited, but not. Peace.

bakers's hugh @ 05/10/2007 at 7:04 pm

The most important thing is the parents. If the parents are committed, loving, understand to PUT THE CHILDREN 1ST, and themselves (parents) second, those children will grow well.

We all know about the Pitt household, and we’ve all seen that when one parent works, the other stays home with the kids.

We know also that they travel to the 3rd world countries a lot. Anybody who’ve seen what the conditions of any emerging countries will come to APPRECIATE what they have. This is what Bill Gates said he would expose his children to other countries so that they would stay grounded.

In an interview with (B Walters or D Sawyer), asked why the Trump children were not in the news of partying . Ivanka replied, (similar words), “We were spoiled culturally and educationally but NOT financially”.

One of the most important life skill is to be able to ADAPT and to IMPROVISE. In life, when you work in the management level, and paid well to solve problems. Part of Brad and Angie’s philosophy of raising their children is like the training of a future CEO. I was very impressed when I read the people mag.

From people mag (end of year issue) p.74

“……In one place we stay, Mad has an Xbox. But we dont have that anywhere else. So, it’s exciting when he gets to play it, because he knows he cant have it all the time. Same with Z. We’ve tried to make them very adaptable, so when we go to a country like India or certain parts of Nambia, they’re happy to play with sticks and rocks outside-they’re happy to blend”.

No one can predict the future whether these children will be an actor/actress, doctor, lawyer, engineer etc. But I guarantee you that these children will grow up to be self-assured, independent, and responsible people.

I can’t imagine can you? Surely they have a nanny with them when they do this, in case one of the children chocks on a piece of popcorn. Or at least I hope so.

If they can find time to be intimate every week with four children, I predict she will be pregnant again by the end of the year.lol

Don’t have a hissy fit, it is only my opinion. i thought the article was exactly what people want to know about, I just didn’t agree with her using her moms death as an excuse. It is better used as an excuse for her to say, I didn’t go to the awards because if her illness.

She does speak of her mother and the manner of which she raised her and I thought hat was nice but the other just left a bad taste in my mouth. JMO

I saw your post this morning on the other thread and kicked myself for missing you. You have assured us that you will be back… I really hope so. I’m sorry to hear that you were sick. I hope that you are on the firmer side of recovery. And I wanted to thank you for recommending that Robert McKee book. I’ve gotten through it already, but it will be my summer read.

Next… I am literally shaking my head at the haters. The fans have read and listened to the interviews, but the haters are literally pouring over every detail and cross-referencing every other interview Angelina has given, which is curious.

Anyway, we still have the Ann Curry interview to look forward to… yay!!

Tiger,

No offense, because I really did like most of your post, but I wish someone would tell me “shame on you” if I was upset and sad that my mother would be passing soon.

I think if there is any time in your life to not be all sociable and able to interact with people that’s the time. No wonder she lost so much weight, she knew the end was near.

I just found it kind of judgmental.

Wonderful pictures. Good father and son vibes. Way to go Brad. Thanks JJ for pouring joy to BAMPZS’S FANS.

konnitiwa @ 05/10/2007 at 7:47 pm

Marcheline was a selfless person. I believe she wished her children lived their life as usual. That idea made her happy and confident. Angie did what her mother wanted. I don’t think she gave any exuse.

Mother’s love is bigger and deeper than tiger can imagine. I am close to Marcheline’s age and I can channel to mother’s thought.

Whatever lula. Course it was easy to blame it on that after the fact or months later. You call it judgemental, i call it an opinion on an interview she did. In my opinion she could of said “I was dealing with alot through that time.” Unless she is looking for sympathy from the public, maybe that is why she said it. Who knows, it isn’t that important to me to argue about it. Just stanting my opinion because other here commented on it as well.

Thanks JJ. Mad is a happy cutie.

Unfortunately life does go on. Her mother was ill for quite along time. Many people who are in the last stages of life insist their loved ones go about what they need to do. Angie was there in support of Brad. I’m sure if your significant other had something important going on you would support them. Unfortunately for Angie they are in a business that the world watches. Would you have missed a gathering at which your husband/wife whatever might receive an award of that importance? You wouldn’t support them?

I don’t see a problem with her being honest. Maybe she felt like she HAD to go since St. john made her a dress and all. Jeez

May 23 angie-ann curry interview!

===========================================

Thanks for the info!!!!!!!

Jolie the Hypocrite @ 05/10/2007 at 8:01 pm

It’s true that Jolie is a hypocrite and compulsive liar ( which are complete textbook markers of addicts BTW) It’s almost like the more she talks, the more she debunks and negates everything she’s said previously. I mean, yeah people make mistakes and yada yada but the *things* she outright lies about are also things she’s so indignant and righteous about, the most glaring example being her stating, “I’d never be with a married man, I couldn’t look at myself blah blah..” When of course there’s Aniston, Dern and Kylie Moinogue who kill themsleves laffing at the statement. Jolie is a joke.

Also, I distinctly recall Jolie stating in another interview with Ann Curry when she was in Namibia that Shiloh wasn’t planned - now she’s saying she was planned (???)

Someone find that interview. Doesn’t matter, Jolie always talks out both sides of her mouth, it’s gotta be hard to keep track -

Longtime Fan/Lurker @ 05/10/2007 at 8:04 pm

Haters will come up with any type of reasoning to justify their hatred… We know you will never love Angie the way we do. I think it is time you gave up the argument. The woman is on top and in charge. Give it up already. They are together, happy and growing by the minute and seconds.

I am sure Angie was devastated of her mom passing. It is her mom and she can choose to behave anyway that is fitting for her and her mom. It is her grief. She chooses how to handle the pain. Stop judging it is not your life.

You wouldn’t support them?

I would do what I felt was right in the moment. What i wouldn’t do is ever use my moms death as an excuse for bad behavour.

I can’t understand why she would even admit to bing in a bad mood. Did she appear in a bad mood to anyone else at the GG? i thought she looked like she was trying to stand back so Brad could have the light. But, obviously she was upset by something, being called on it and admitting it was her moms condition that caused her to behave poorly.

If I did make the choice to go, surely I would try to make it as pleasant as I could for my mate. It was her choice to go, wasn’t it?

This “hater” surely have a problem. Why this “hater” know what Angelina says on her other interviews? Does it mean this “hater” keep on following Angelina’s news and interviews? That’s weird.

I’d like to see you skip down a red carpet all smiles and sunshine!

Why did she go then? I am sure everyone would of understood if she wanted to stay by her dying mothers side. Especially Brad.

Don’t have a hissy fit, it is only my opinion. i thought the article was exactly what people want to know about, I just didn’t agree with her using her moms death as an excuse. It is better used as an excuse for her to say, I didn’t go to the awards because if her illness.

She does speak of her mother and the manner of which she raised her and I thought hat was nice but the other just left a bad taste in my mouth. JMO

—————————

You know tiger you leave a bad taste in my mouth, you’re a passive aggressive if I ever saw one. There are no absolutes with cancer. At best, if it’s a termnal illness and IF the patient has kept the family apprised of just how much time they have been told they have, then they’ll know that. Given that Marcheline battled cancer for 7 and half years, I’m sure she had gotten to a point where she didn’t give weekly or monthly news updates to the kids about the progression of her disease. She told them she was fine, and as Angelina said on Larry King, she was in good spirits, most likely in large part due to her kids and grandkids living their lives.

When Angelina said what she said in response to interviewer’s ‘well, the NY times said you were in a bad mood.’ or whatever - her point was that not even they can fact check and get their story straight. In other words it would have taken less than half a minute for a LEGIT publication to have talked to sources and leads and learned that AJ’s mom was not doing well…tabloids dig around and create fanfiction about ridiculousness all the time, I would think a legit publication BEFORE publishing a smear would try and find out if perhaps there was anything behind the supposed moodiness. Everyone already KNOWS her mother is ill. It’s really no great leap to assume that might be her concern. There had already been a photo of her published exiting her Mom’s garage and crying, talking on the phone - the outfit even captioned that Angelina was upset after having visited her Mom because of her illness, and yet E! & Peecrust, US Mag and Caryn James at the NYT (regurgitating the US msear VERBATIM) pile on about her snootiness???!! Doesn’t THAT strike you as odd.

In answering the Reader’s Digest question, she was not about to get into whatever someone’s perception of her behavior was at the GGs, she’s just telling you straight up what her reality was — she was very concerned about her Mom.

She knows now, in hindsight that she was “about to die,” (which is why she said it) but she didn’t necessarily know it for sure then, she probably just knew her mom looked like she was nearing the end, and maybe not rebounding like she had in the past.

Those who are ill many times want to remain happy and in good spirits around those they love, and I have no question this is what Marcheline did — but the LAST thing a family member wants to do is tell the ill person who HAS NOT GIVEN UP, that ‘Oooooh, you look like you’re going to die, so I’m going to just hover over you until you do.’

So quit being a dumb cruel jealous b*tch Tiger, and more importantly quit trying to pretend THAT is not what you are.

Cliniqua says: [...] they have no shame, and infer things about a woman’s private intimate family life which they know nothing about.
__________________________________________________________–

Bwahahhahaha that’s rich! Infer things about a women’s provate family life?? Are you coo-coo for cocoa puffs?@@!!! There’s nothing to infer honey, Jolie spills all to the world and we call it as we see it - if Jolie can spill it, I can have an opinion about HER STATEMENTS, there’s nothing to infer.

Jolie stated she was in a bad mood at the GG’s because her mother was dying. If that’s true, why did she hop on a plane the very next day, leave the country, stay there for 4 days then return NOT to LA where her dying mother is but to New Orleans?? so, either she’s cold and knew like she told Reader’s Digest, or she didn’t know and is LIEING. I prefer to think she didn’t know her mother was dying - and why bring that up in the convo as an excuse for her pissy-ness and insecurity? It’s pretty LOW to bring your DYING mother into the LIES - why, Cliniqua, perhaps you ought to inform Jolie about your theory about “PRIVATE INITIMATE family life..” and ask Jolie to stop talking about her “private intimate family life..”

Hilarious!!! Cliniqua, you are truly nutty!! It’s almost like your taking lead from Jolie in the hypocrisy department…

tiger, what you did to Angie is what you are accusing konnitiwa of. Don’t judge if you don’t want to be judged because you don’t know Angelina to be saying she was lying. Let’e enjoy the discussion without friction.

Oh that is rich and I am not the one spilling all the secrets I have with my mate in a public magazine. So now it is off bounds to talk about these clebrity interviews? Or it is only ok when we agree with everything they say? If you didn’t or she didn’t want public opinion about it, maybe she shouldn’t have given the interview. I am only commenting to what I read, why is that ok for you and not for me? Because you don’t agree? Classic!

yeah right @ 05/10/2007 at 8:15 pm

FIRST SHE SAYS: We came together because we’re similar. We didn’t become similar after…He’s a really amazing father – he didn’t just become that around me. You could say he changed me. I wasn’t planning on getting pregnant. I’m the one that got knocked up! So if you look at it that way, it was me who had the reversal.”

THEN SHE SAYS: On planning for Shiloh:
“Before I met Brad, I always said I was happy never to have a child biologically. He told me he hadn’t given up on that thought. Then, a few months after Z came home, I saw Brad with her and Mad, and I realized how much he loved them, and a biological child would not in any way be a threat. So I said, ‘I want to try.’”

Both sides of her mouth indeed. Angelina is a liar.

I just checked out the old anne curry interview from when Angelina was pregnant. She didn’t say anything about shiloh being an accident. . . She said she made different CHOICES and now she’s pregnant. sounds planned to me.

Too true. The fact that a publication such as the NY Times would liberally quote a infamous tab such as US WEAKLY is nothing to brag about. The whole article by Ms. James was a paid smear job and thus the rub. However, I love the slight dig(my perception) AJ took at NY Times in her interview. Fact check people.

What? How is she lying? BEFORE brad she wasn’t planning on getting pregnant then she obviously changed her mind.

I don’t see where Angelina is a liar. In both interviews she makes it clear before Pitt came along she wasn’t planning on having a bio baby. She changed her mind. She got “knocked up” because she made a decision she wanted to have a baby with Brad.

It is a good day. Both interviews are great. The Pitts are living a good life. It’s going to three years. I don’t think there is anything that the tabloids have not lied about. It is time to focus on the fact that they are a family and they are happy.

yeah right @ 05/10/2007 at 8:24 pm

I don’t have anything else to do just to annoy the **** out of you guys

angelina gave a great interview i liked it a lot-i’m so glad these tired arguments by these trolls that have been rehased adnausem don’t even register with me-it’s not like these opinions haven’t been heard before and before and before and before-i concentrate on the news about brad and angie and not the negative opinions that seem to occured 24/7 365 days of the year-brad and angie will continue on.

SHE HAD MADE A PROMISE TO ADOPT A LITTLE BOY. I’M SURE IT WAS ARRANGED BY THE ADOPTION AGENCY AND THE ORPHANAGE. THATS WHY SHE TOOK MODDOX WITH HER. MAYBE SHE COULDN’T BACK OUT, HOW WOULD THAT HAVE LOOKED TO THE PEOPLE INVOLVED WITH THE ADOPTION IF SHE HAD.

SO FOOKIN QUICK TO JUDGE WITHOUT ALL THE FACTS.

The fact is AJ made a comittment to BP that another person hinted, lied and evaded. She was woman enough to see this man as a great father and someone that she wanted to raise her son Maddox at the time, later Zahara. For a Woman who only wanted to adopted children, it was a leap of faith and love to have BP’s child. The rest is history with Maddox, Zahara, Pax and Shiloh, with more children to come - bio and adopted . Criticis can nitpick and over-analyze on blogs. However, it does not take away from the fact that they are a family, happily in love and doing some good in the world.

The haters have nothing to say about her. Angie becomes more stronger every day .What’s a woman in our generation?

worth for me to repeat myself:…………of course once again, those trolls took Angie’s words as Moses’ words to the people…after all her child is ” the chosen one”….muahahahahaha….

(cute picture of AJ and Maddox - that I have never seen)

Angelina Jolie is using her newfound popularity in Asia to her advantage, by appearing in three beauty campaigns for Shiseido. Having travelled there extensively through her role as a UN Goodwill Ambassador, Jolie endeared herself further to the continent by adopting two orphans - one from Vietnam and one from Cambodia - in 2007 and 2002 respectively. According to WWD, the actress flew to Hollywood Studios two weeks ago where she was shot for the Shiseido ads by beauty photographer Camilla Akrans. Although the US and UK will never see the images - they will be shown only in Japan - Jolie will appear on billboards and in glossy magazines from September to promote the brand’s powder and liquid eyeshadows. Currently in Prague making her new film, Wanted, co-starring Morgan Freeman and James McAvoy, Jolie is said to be very happy about the new beauty campaign. (May 9 2007, AM)

The FF hags are voting for BonJovi, they don’t want PAPA Pitt to lead . I voted too for PAPA Pitt of course :-)

The Elle magazine interview is not proof that Shiloh was an accident. All she said, like she said in RD, was she wasn’t planning on getting pregnant. She wasn’t. Brad changed her mind. Not that hard to figure out.

You sound so very judgemental.

Im sure she had visited her mother..maybe earlier that day….and it must have been hard knowing that her mom was not going to be getting better. No one knows when a loved one is going to pass..im sure she wasnt in the final stages of dying or Angie wouldnt have been anywhere else. Cancer is like that. When my dad was told there was nothing else to do..no more treatment..it was sad and hard to accept, but still he lived for several more months. We were told it could be weeks or months, no one knew. My dad insisted I went to school, and lived as normal a life as I could. He didnt want me sitting at his bed, waiting for him to die. When the final hours came, I got on a bus and I was there for him. He was happy knowing all the things I was doing in my life and I was glad I was there when he passed. I think Angie’s mom was the same, proud of her daughter…and not wanting her to stop living her life . I have no doubt she was in contact with her mother and the hospital at all times. Lucky for her, she could get on a plane at a moments notice.

Stop with the hate and calling someone a liar when you dont know of what you speak.
*******************************************************************
So sorry to hear about your father Aimee. I just wanted to say what a great post. It’s funny how some people want to subject Angie to a higher standard than others. It’s also funny how this person mentions her trip to Vietnam after the GGs, but neglected to mention all the trips Angie made to visit her mom before the GGs, which were documented by photos posted on JJ and elsewhere.

I have the tape of the Anne Curry interview and she clearly implied Shiloh was planned. When Anne asked her about having a biological child after saying she only wanted to adopt, she said, “Feelings change. You make different decisions.”

Her interview was wonderful and nothing anybody says can take away from it. The only person who I consider a liar is the person who gave the world the impression her soon-to-be ex-husband wasn’t interested in having children, but she was. If she had the courage to say to the world I want to concentrate on my career instead of having children at this time, then I would have respect for her. But as we all know she laid the blame on her ex. And as we can see from the photos posted here he adores being a father.

Sorry, it’s hard not to get mad when people come on here and spout off nonsense.

SO (PLS TRY TO FOLLOW) WHEN SHE SAID (I wasn’t planning on getting pregnant) WHAT SHE MEANT WAS SHE WASN’T PLANNING ON GETTING PREGNANT UNTIL BRAD CAME INTO HER LIFE. SHE THEN ADDS (it was me who had the reversal). MEANING SHE CHANGED HER MIND ABOUT HAVING A BIO BABY.

WHAT SHE IS SAYING IS, IT WASN’T BRAD THAT CHANGED SHE CHANGED. AND THATS WHAT SHE CONFIRMS IN THE RD INTERVIEW.

HOW ANYONE CANNOT UNDERSTAND THAT IS BEYOND ME, BUT THEN AGAIN SOME FOLKS THOUGHT SHILOH WASN’T A ‘TREAT’ INSTEAD OF ‘THREAT’ WHICH TELLS ME ALL I NEED TO KNOW ABOUT YOU HATERS. YOU’RE NOT THE SHARPEST KNIFE IN THE BOX ARE YOU?

Does it really matter whether she (Shiloh) was planned or not? The fact is that Angie was willing to give a biological birth a try. (Brad must have worn her down.) Anyway, Shiloh is here, will be 1 year old soon. All of her beautiful children are all together. She is happy, Brad is happy the kids are happy…life is good.

SORRY I was Wrong. It wasn’t the Ann Curry interview, it was the Elle UK interview where Jolie (((explicitly))) states that Shiloh WAS NOT PLANNED.

GET IT? In fact poor lonely nutjob, Jolie’s EXACT WORDS ARE :

((((((”You could say he changed me. I wasn’t planning on getting pregnant. I’m the one that got knocked up!” ))))))

False accusations you say????

OOohhhh you poor lonely gulliable SAP.

JOLIE SAID SHILOH WAS NOT PLANNED. Prove it you say???!!! Below is the February 2007 interview in the UK Elle with Angelina Jolie. PLEASE KEEP IN MIND this may be a shock to you given your defensiveness and you’ll try to twist it and turn her words of “I didn’t plan to get pregnant…!”

But alas, keep trying and you’ve got a long road becasue Jolie ALWAYS LIES and contradicts what she says.
___________________________________________________________________

ANGELINA DISSES SHILOH AND ADMITS BRAD KNOCKED HER UP
January 08, 2007 Provided by:

No one will ever accuse Angelina Jolie of being tight-lipped again. Sure, she’s been secretive at times, but lately the Good Shepherd actress, 31, doesn’t hesitate to dish out some real doozies. This time the cover girl unloaded for the February issue of Elle U.K. revealing the truth behind her unplanned pregnancy with boyfriend Brad Pitt, 43; admitting she favors her adopted children over her natural-born child, and even dissing little Shiloh calling her a blob!

On playing favorites with her three little ones:
“I think I feel so much more for Madd and Zee because they’re survivors, they came through so much. Shiloh seemed so privileged from the moment she was born. I have less inclination to feel for her…I met my other kids when they were 6 months old, they came with a personality. A newborn really is this…Yes, a blob! But now she’s starting to have a personality…I’m conscious that I have to make sure I don’t ignore her needs, just because I think the others are more vulnerable.”

On coming clean on the “surprise” baby Shiloh:
“You could say he changed me. I wasn’t planning on getting pregnant. I’m the one that got knocked up!”

On building a family Mia Farrow-style:
“We definitely want a very big family. It might seem crazy to build it so quickly. But if we’re going to have 10 kids, we’d like to raise them while we’re young.”

On explaining the old Angelina:
“When I first became a public person it was terrible. I was unhappy and self-destructive. There is no reason for somebody to be getting all this attention just for doing a movie. So it doesn’t feel good.”

On wanting global residency:
“We’d like to have a base in the States. I’d like a base somewhere else too. I’d love to send the kids to international school and live in the middle of nowhere in Africa or Asia, just coming in for work.”

______________________________________________________________-

Bring it on Loonies…..

The thing is Angie is the only one everybody is analyzing for every thing she has ever done - just from one word out of her mouth to every ****. I would get very upset if someone analyzes every word I said in my life. I try to be honest and nice to people and try to learn and live but my decision and thought change with my everyday experience and discussion with other people. So if I change my decision, should I be called as a hypocrite? If I say of my feeling of sad, should I be called as seeking for sympathy? So what if I seek for sympathy of other people. Why people wish Angie to be a God or this perfect human being? She is a human but she tries dam hard to do best in her situation.

I admire her not because she is perfect but because she tries hard to live her life best and accomplish more than any one person can do. I am a 47 year old woman (more than 15 years older than Angie) married with a son, have a Ph.D. degree in Biochem and working as a director in consulting company but I accomplished less than 5% of what she has ever done in her life so far. She had more experience and endured harsh situations but she accomplished more. People should try to accomplish more in their own life rather than being jealous of her.

Danny Ocean and the boys have their next big scheme all figured out.

The stars of Warner Bros. upcoming crime caper, Ocean’s Thirteen—George Clooney, Brad Pitt, Matt Damon, Don Cheadle—along with producer Jerry Weintruab are aiming to parlay the hype surrounding the sequel into aid for victims of the ongoing genocide in the Darfur.

The film is scheduled to hit theaters on June 8. But, to increase pressure on U.S. and international policymakers to take action to stop the mass killings, the Ocean’s crew is holding a series of benefit screenings to raise funds for the International Rescue Committee, which has aided more than 2 million Sudanese refugees displaced by the conflict.

They’ve also set up their own organization, Not On Our Watch (notonourwatchproject.org), which will partner with the IRC to raise awareness about the atrocities that have left more than 200,000 people dead.

“All the guys have been to the Sudan this year. They saw this huge genocide and nobody doing anything about it,” Weintraub tells the Associated Press. “Clooney got attention earlier, but it faded.”

The producer is referring to the Oscar winner’s April 2006 trip to the border area, where he met survivors in a refugee camp and recorded their stories for a documentary that aired last January. Since that visit, talk of an international force intervening to stop the genocide has failed to gain traction. So Clooney and cohorts hope to reenergize the human rights campaign to save those caught in the maelstrom before even more die.

“What we are trying to do here is bring our celebrity to raise money and bring a spotlight on Sudan again,” says Weintraub. “We decided to dedicate ourselves to this. The thing I am most proud of by far is that these events will benefit a cause that is very important to me and my colleagues.”

Among the events being planned is a May 24 premiere at the Cannes Film Festival, which will also double as a fundraiser for the two organizations; a June 5 North American debut in Hollywood, where Clooney and his fellow stars will leave their shoeprints in the cement outside of Graumann’s Chinese Theater; and a June 6 benefit showing at the CineVegas Film Festival, where the 69-year-old Weintraub will receive the Vanguard Producer Award honoring his 50-year career.

Weintraub also said he planned to head to Darfur as well later this year to see for himself the death and destruction wrought there.

“It’s not a pleasant place to go,” he tells the wire service. “They don’t need another tourist like me going there. I can do a lot more good here raising money. But I will go. We are all very good friends so when one does something we all get onboard.”

The Steven Soderbergh-helmed flick chronicles the latest heist concocted by charming crook Danny Ocean (Clooney) and his accomplices as they even the score with a casino owner (Al Pacino) who double-crossed them.

Of course, what good’s an Ocean’s adventure without a little money on the line.

To help raise even more cash for Not On Our Watch, online gambling site PokerStars is planning to hold two charity tournaments—one in Cannes on May 13 and the other in Los Angeles on May 27—to benefit Darfur victims.

The top four finishers in each game will get tickets to the premiere of Ocean’s Thirteen either in Cannes or Hollywood. The top 18 finishers will also each receive a copy of the crime caper’s DVD autographed by all the stars; PokerStars has pledged to match the final tally in each tournament’s prize pool in the final donation.

In other Ocean’s-related good-works news, construction began Thursday on the winning design in an architecture competition organized by Pitt to build eco-friendly homes in New Orleans’ Katrina-devastated Lower Ninth Ward.

Workers broke ground on the first home, which is being built by Global Green USA. The environmental group teamed up with the mega-star in April 2006 to launch the contest, and Pitt donated $100,000 to the effort and an additional $100,000 to cover the prize money.

Building is expected to be completed by the second anniversary of the storm this September

Jolie-Pitt Foundation Makes Darfur Pledge

Updated: 01:11, Friday May 11, 2007
Celebrity couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have made a million dollar donation to aid groups working in Sudan’s war-ravaged region of Darfur.
Actress Jolie has travelled to Sudan and neighbouring Chad three times to meet refugees who have been forced from their homes by the conflict.

She is also a Goodwill Ambassador for the UN Refugee Agency and has called for greater support to help refugees.

Now her Jolie-Pitt Foundation, which she formed with her actor boyfriend, has pledged one million US dollars (£505,100) to aid agencies working in the area.

“This generous donation comes just months after Angelina Jolie made a personal visit to a refugee camp in Chad,” said Michel Gabaudan,a regional representative for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR).

“It shows, once again, her and Brad Pitts’ commitment to helping refugees and the displaced.”

The money is to be split between the UN refugee agency, the International Rescue Committee and the international non-governmental organization, SOS Children’s Villages.

In New York, George Rupp, president of the International Rescue Committee, said, “This donation will make a real difference in the lives of thousands of vulnerable people.

“We are grateful to Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt for remembering them.”

More than 200,000 people have been killed and an estimated 2.5 million have had to flee their homes since 2003, when ethnic African rebels in Darfur rose up against the Arab-dominated central government.

The Sudanese government is accused of retaliating by arming local nomadic tribes and unleashing militias known as the janjaweed - a charge the government denies.

MADDOX IS DEFINITELY MY FAVOURITE! MADDOX ROCKS!

She said she wasn’t planning on getting pregnant, then she met Brad Pitt and things changed. Planning, meaning she wasn’t ever thinking about having bio kids, and then she met him and realized it’d be okay.

Why is this so controversial. And if you prove she’s a “liar” what do you gain?

Just asking. This is getting tiresome. You need to move on.

Ocean’s Crew Dives into Darfur

132, 147 and all the others with an issue on planned vs. knocked up

Hi everyone,

It was just a matter of time until someone would have come up with the planned vs. knocked up thing.

Yesterday when I first saw the interview I saw already where the haters might try to “attack”. This was one of them so with your permission I would like to explain.
Is very simple and I hope the issue will not come up again. Pay attention:

Angelina was got knocked up while she was planning to have Shiloh.

Translation: I am planning to get pregnant in two months. Oops! I got knocked up.

Hopes this clarify this issue.

uh… Says:
On coming clean on the “surprise” baby Shiloh:
“You could say he changed me. I wasn’t planning on getting pregnant. I’m the one that got knocked up!”

Thank you for proving our point! She changed her mind after meeting Brad! She said years ago she would never have a child and look she got knocked up! Comprehension is a good thing!

yeah right @ 05/10/2007 at 9:06 pm

How are you translating “I got knocked up” into “I changed my mind and got pregnant”?? Is this some form of brangelina speak? Because in the English language “I got knocked up” means : to get pregnant; an unplanned pregnancy, unwanted. Dictionary definition girls.

On coming clean on the “surprise” baby Shiloh:
“You could say he changed me. I wasn’t planning on getting pregnant. I’m the one that got knocked up!”

did you read the first sentence said that ” you could say he changed me”?…what is that mean to you?…does it mean that she wasn’t plan on getting pregnant but Brad changed her mind?….

She did not said the pregnancy wasn’t plan at all….goodness, I give up. Forest Gump is smarter than you for sure.

Once again, the trolls only read part and pieces of article…not the whole thing….you are right ladies, they are hopeless….it’s just like reading the cover of the book and think they know the whole story….

Thank You @ 05/10/2007 at 9:07 pm

“You could say he changed me. I wasn’t planning on getting pregnant. I’m the one that got knocked up!”

I don’t see this being inconsistent with what she’s said in the past. She wasn’t planning on having biological kids, but then she met Brad, fell in love with him and got pregnant. I don’t see the hypocrisy.

Hi Sheri, JPfan, piper and all other nice JJ posters!

The FF trolls are in the house and I will not engage them. No matter what they say they can;y change one thing: Brad and Angie are a couple, they have four kids, they are together and love each other . Those are the facts.

Remember that trolls are only trying to derail the thread, don’t bite, don’t feed them, don’t even try to enlighten them - they are beyond hope. They are here to bug, and they copy the same FF posts here. Just ignore them.

Brad is number one again in the hello poll - keep voting!

We have wonderful interviews, enjoy them!

oh my goodness….which dictionary is that?…hillbilly version?…muahhhahahahaha

((((((”You could say he changed me. I wasn’t planning on getting pregnant. I’m the one that got knocked up!” ))))))

Again out of context, she was saying exactly what she said in RD, she was talking about before she met BRAD she wasn’t thinking about having a biological child. Now that you admited you lied about Ann Cury story, go listen to it you nutjob (must be an FF’er) she says “I never thought I would have a bio baby but after I met Brad things felt different”. Now nutjob (hey I like that term it suits you well). Give the beginning of the paragraph the whole thing why she said he changed her.
As far as I can see it there is two huge liars Jen and her lunatic fans.

Don’t respond nutjob, I am off to vote for Bradley :-)

Hey stranger! Long time no chat! How are you? Your right but it was fun for a bit! So I’ll leave the poor hating souls alone. I got back from Fl Tues. it was like being in hell with humidity!

ISLAMABAD: The UN refugee agency on Wednesday handed over 40 orthopaedic beds donated by actor Brad Pitt to earthquake victims at an Islamabad hospital.

Dr Syed Fazle Hadi, executive director of the Pakistan Institute of Medical Sciences (PIMS) in Islamabad, received the first of 40 beds from Guenet Guebre-Christos, UNHCR’s representative in Pakistan. The bed was worth over $100,000. Pitt made the donation through the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) when he visited Pakistan in late November with Angelina Jolie, the agency’s goodwill ambassador. “We are grateful to our donor Mr Brad Pitt, for supporting the relief effort,” said Guebre-Christos. “This donation will bring comfort to the injured and facilitate the work of the dedicated hospital staff of PIMS.” “It’s not easy to look after quadriplegic patients, who are prone to bed and pressure sores if they stay in the same position for too long,” said Dr Hadi. “But the orthopaedic beds can be tilted from side to side and moved up and down on electronic hydraulics.”

And on the unrelenting gossip the couple face, she added: “Our first question is, what paper is it in? The New York Times? If not, do we really need to worry?”

After Angelina Jolie gave birth to daughter to Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt at the Welwitschia Clinic in Walvis Bay on Saturday, she and Brad Pitt decided to express their gratitude by donating $300,000 to the Namibian hospital. According to the New York Daily News, the couple are also spending $15,000 to build a school and a community center in Swakopmund.

“We want to contribute to Namibia and the people who have been so gracious to us at this time,” a government statement released yesterday quoted the couple as saying.

Mother and baby are healthy and doing well, according to Samuel Nuuyoma, governor of the Namibian region of Erongo.

“They are just fine, they are enjoying their lives,” said Nuuyoma.

Two humanitarian organizations will be the recipients of $1 million dollars each, thanks to Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. The organizations are Global Action for Children and MSF (Doctors Without Borders)

Says Angelina in her statement: “In the most troubled parts of the world — places that much of the world has abandoned — MSF is always there. I have seen these brave men and women working in war zones and horrific conditions and I deeply admire them.”

Angelina Jolie was in the capital yesterday to help officially launch Global Action for Children. The organization has been around for almost 4 years, but the press event yesterday helped them officially launch a more formal organization and announce their new headquarters in Washington D.C.

Jennifer Delaney, Executive Director of Global Action for Children told the audience, “Angelina Jolie is a global leader on children issues. We are thrilled to have her as the honorary chairperson of the GAC Board. Her support of GAC helps us to ensure that orphans and vulnerable children in developing countries and the communities that care for them get the support they need.”

This is the same organization that received $1 million from Brad & Angie back in September.

Just Jared has some nice quotes from Angelina & the press conference:

“This is a happy day because it’s not often enough children are represented in this town,” Jolie said. “Their education and well being is an investment in our future.”

Will she run for office? Jolie smiled and said, “I surely don’t think anybody here wants that. [My focus remains] in the field.”

“In many ways it is better to think of these children one by one — each deserving of our care and attention, each being of equal value, and each being a test of whether justice — or injustice — will prevail.”

GAC wants you to get educated and then become a local activist on these issues.

Cliniqua says: […] they have no shame, and infer things about a woman’s private intimate family life which they know nothing about.
__________________________________________________________–

Bwahahhahaha that’s rich! Infer things about a women’s provate family life?? Are you coo-coo for cocoa puffs?@@!!! There’s nothing to infer honey, Jolie spills all to the world and we call it as we see it - if Jolie can spill it, I can have an opinion about HER STATEMENTS, there’s nothing to infer.
——————

Sure you can have an opinion, a jealous b*tch bat sh*t crazy opinion, so have at! Bahahaha! I can have an opinion too. I say Aniston got her plastic surgery because she KNOWS she’s fug, and her Dustina Hoffman face leaves much tobe desired. My opinion THEREFORE, is more valid than YOURS, simply because it’s a FACT that Maniston had plastic surgery on her mug, she’s COPPED TO IT. HOWEVER, Angelina sarcastically saying, ‘Yeah. And my mother was about to die,’ getting on the NYT’s Caryn James for her smears, doesn’t give you any FACTUAL information as to IF & WHEN she knew that might occur. See the diff? If you don’t, grow a brain. I am SO SICK of you jealous hater fug b*tches putting this woman on trial, NOT for driving drunk, not for doing blow in stalls, not for airing her bare tw*t in the wind, not for driving with her kid on her lap, not for going to jail…but –for looking sad and acting quiet at an awards show because her Mom battling a terminal illness seemed worse this time??!! Are you evil ho’s f**king kidding me?! I would love to be there when karma bites you in the ass. I really would.

Jolie stated she was in a bad mood at the GG’s because her mother was dying.

NO. She didn’t say that. There was no “because.” But just like the ’stay at home Mom thing,’ that the b*tch tabloid editoresses published and pimped and criticized her over, conveniently forgetting to add the “while Pax gets adjusted” part. Read it again, cheetah. She said sarcastically, “Yeah, and my mother was about to die.” Meaning a so-called legit pub is writing that **** and it turns out my mother was about to die…she was essentially saying you would think they might have tried to ascertain what could have made me a bit down instead of making me evil incarnate for no reason.

If that’s true, why did she hop on a plane the very next day, leave the country, stay there for 4 days then return NOT to LA where her dying mother is but to New Orleans?? so, either she’s cold and knew like she told Reader’s Digest, or she didn’t know and is LIEING.

Yeah and only a hater ***** assumes that there is no happy or in this case very sad ‘MEDIUM.’ That she is NOT lying, and that she knew her Mother was ill, but did not know how ill — she feared the worst and expect and hoped like hell for the best, because her Mom was in good spirits. I suppose THAT isn’t possible. Because she’s Angelina Jolie and must be dissected and cut up and roasted alive and analyzed by you obsessed haters for every f*cking thing that comes out of her mouth. Whatever she says, interpret it as the worst possible explanation - because she is not deserving of anything else? Why? Why because she’s the beautiful Angelina Jolie, who has Brad Pitt in her bed and his babies, while your idol and the fug B*tch you ID with, is lonely, careerless and childless. Maybe someday you’ll realize like she has, you b*tches are all responsible for your own damn misery, awful lives, fat aSSes and fug faces, Angelina has NOTHING to do with it.

Angelina said her Mom was strong and in GOOD SPIRITS - Marcheline wanted her living her life and not hovering over her waiting for her to die. I guess, in your narrow minded, rabidly jealous tiny little evil mind…a daughter wanting to make her mom happy, and not wanting to remind her she’s at death’s door, but who’s going about living her life as her mom wanted - is just waaay too selfless a way to be for a jealous hateful b*tch like you to comprehend. Yeah, I’m sure you’ll be someone who when their time comes, goes shrieking and wailing scared to death, and will want everyone in your family to be just as miserable and tortured as you are — well, congrats — here’s hoping you get your wish! That when and if you get cancer, you have a slow illness, and that everyone that you love puts their lives on hold, loses their jobs, loses their families, makes themselves sick with worry, because you’re the selfish hag you show yourself for on this thread.

Or better yet, here’s hoping they hang around watching YOU get sicker and sicker even when you have some degree of hope, even when you have the emotional and mental strength to fight it…here’s hoping everytime you look in your loved ones eyes, because you’re making them hover over you and countdown the days, weeks, months, and years - you’ll see the terror, fear, worry, sadness and anxiety. I wish that for you. Because as nasty an individual as you sound, I see you behaving in just that way. So I dearly hope you get exactly what you want. (I also hope your IP gets exposed, because for all we know you’re some fat ugly nasty b*tch working for STAR or Outta Touch - TRACK IT JARED!)

I prefer to think she didn’t know her mother was dying - and why bring that up in the convo as an excuse for her pissy-ness and insecurity?

Maybe because it wasn’t “pissyness and insecurity” you dumb aSS, maybe it was just an occasional quietness and restraint brought on by her concern for her Mom. Not to mention red stepping back and letting Brad have his night. Ya ever think of THAT genius.

…Shyeah, riiiiiiiiiiiiiiight — that is just sooo Angelina to be “insecure” - er, because of WHAT exactly FOOL??!! Hahahaha!! Oh that’s right Maniston. Please. PUT DOWN the crack pipe b*tch! Nevermind AJ walked right up to BOTOX Cox with her man, and chatted, nevermind that Angelina has been living just 10 minutes up the road from the fug b*tch. Hahahaha! Nevermind that Angelina, said Hell yeah I’ll play Marianne Pearl in a movie you could only dream about you sad ass TV hack!! Hahahahaha! Nevermind that she and Brad and the kids go out to eat in the same damn Malibu and LA hotspots as that sad stupid repile Maniston. Ahahahahaha! Shut the hell up with your bass ackwards theories, you silly fool!

It’s pretty LOW to bring your DYING mother into the LIES - why, Cliniqua, perhaps you ought to inform Jolie about your theory about “PRIVATE INITIMATE family life..” and ask Jolie to stop talking about her “private intimate family life..”

Maybe you b*tches ought to come up with some other inhuman trait to ascribe to Angelina…–is there anything else though, once you’ve saidshe doesn’t love her Mom or her daughter? Next you’ll be pinning the Kennedy assassination on her, it would be only slightly more unbelievable than the hatred, jealousy and psychosis you b*tches spew towards her on a daily basis.

The funny part is — you’re so predictable. You B*tches really need to check yourself into a psych ward. It’s like you crazed hater b*tches are the CSI of Angelina-ism, pouring over her words, sweat pouring from your brow, scouring, scouring, reading back, highlighting, isolatings words, and sentences, checking them against other interviews, posing theories…LMAO…OH MY GOD…it’s as if you fail to realize this is a human being. But even sillier, fail to recognize that there is only so much you can ever know for certain, so acknowledging that, you speculate like you’re INSANE.

I could see if she were Paris Hilton, who calls people the n* word, trashes cars, appears pretty selfish to me in general, not to mention a big waste of space….or I could even see if it were Jennifer Aniston, a 110 millionaire who bans her mother from her life for 13 years, and leaves her to the indigent care ward in L.A….I mean — at least THAT would give you some REASON to maybe say, yeah..this person deserves the worst I can deal out….but she’s a loving Mom of 4 who goes around HELPING the WORLD….and you women are constantly trying to stab her in the gut???? I just don’t get the hate

Is it JUST because she’s f*cking Brad Pitt and is Mom to his kids…My GOD, have some dignity and decency people, have you lost your f*cking minds?? What is WRONG with you women? You people make me think we are seriously flawed beings, and only a few of us aren’t born with the jealous hater b*tch gene, the rest of us live to hate other women who we perceive as BETTER OFF than we are. Sad

You are the worst representation of womanhood I have ever seen uh (or shall I say sh*tzy) hahahah.

FIRST SHE SAYS: We came together because we’re similar. We didn’t become similar after…He’s a really amazing father – he didn’t just become that around me. You could say he changed me. I wasn’t planning on getting pregnant. I’m the one that got knocked up! So if you look at it that way, it was me who had the reversal.”

STOP. Take a look at the part in BOLD Einstein. You don’t have “reversals” nor do you “change” BY ACCIDENT, it takes willful thought, and decision making - she is saying she CHANGED and DECIDED to HAVE A BABY, you damn DUMB fool! Hahahaha! I cannot believe how stupid you are - what part of that quote do you NOT understand??!! When she says she “wasn’t planning on becoming pregnant” she very obviously is talking about BEFORE BRAD (in HER PRE-BRAD LIFE, “she wasn’t planning on becoming pregnant”), and of course, what she SAYS is that is HOW he CHANGED HER -she made a DIFFERENT DECISION, and GOT PREGNANT. I swear, the people that run these rags, and the idiotic jealous haters that post on boards, really make me fear for the American educational system! Keep doing what you’re doing Brad and Angelina! Educate your kids in private schools and abroad. Because God forbid they should be as dumb as the haters that post here - of course we all know it most likely is a deliberate misconstruing, don’t we??

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have made a $100,000 donation to the Daniel Pearl Foundation in memory of the American journalist who was kidnapped and eventually killed in Pakistan in February of 2002, PEOPLE has learned exclusively.

The gift, made through the recently formed Jolie-Pitt Foundation, was presented on Tuesday, which would have been the late Wall Street Journal reporter’s 43rd birthday.

“On this day our thoughts go out to Danny’s family,” Pitt and Jolie said in an exclusive statement released by their political advisor, Trevor Neilson, to PEOPLE. “The Daniel Pearl Foundation is celebrating this day, his birthday, with music festivals around the world. The festivals are a great reminder of not just Danny’s work as a journalist but of his life and his love of music.”

Pitt and Jolie arrived last week in Pune, India, to film the Pearl biopic, A Mighty Heart, based on the book written by the journalist’s widow, Mariane Pearl, whom Jolie portrays in the film.

At the time of his death, Pearl was investigating links between the terrorist group Al Qaeda and Pakistan’s Inter-Services Intelligence.

Pitt and Jolie formed their foundation last month in order to give away $2 million, to be evenly divided between the Global Action for Children and Doctors Without Borders, to help families affected by HIV/AIDS and extreme poverty.

yeah is right - why are you stirring up things? Angie has been consistent in both interviews. Your refusal and argumentative stand is just showing your stupidity and ignorance. Or are you just a bitter person. You are taking words out of context. Example. if you take my first sentence, and let it stand by itself, we may well be talking about cooking, but we aren’t.

In the News Says:
Brad Pitt misses y’all
By Doug MacCash
May 10, 2007

It has been less than a year since he bought a house in the French Quarter, but Brad Pitt already knows what it means to miss New Orleans.

Since leaving town to join Angelina Jolie on the Czechoslovakia set of her new movie, “Wanted,” Pitt said that he has regrettably slid, once again, under the celebrity magnifying glass.

“Let me tell you, we’re in this house in Prague right now and there’s about 12 cars of paparazzi outside and some tourists with video cameras,” Pitt said Wednesday in a phone interview. “I can’t describe why we’re allowed to live a more normal life (in New Orleans).”

The thing he misses the most, he said, is bicycling through the streets of New Orleans at night.

“Living in the French Quarter is a thrill for us,” he said. “We have some semblance of real family life. People have been very, very gracious with us. If we’re on the front deck, people go by and say, ‘Hi.’ Then they go on their way, very friendly.”

The main purpose of Pitt’s call wasn’t to tell us he missed us, but to discuss a milestone in the progress of Global Green USA’s ecologically friendly low-income residential development in the Lower 9th Ward.
Pitt spent $100,000 last summer to fund a design competition for an energy-efficient cluster of five houses, 18 apartments and a community center slated to be built in the Holy Cross neighborhood near the Mississippi River levee. On the first anniversary of Katrina, architects Andrew Kotchen and Matthew Berman of New York City were chosen to plan the development.

Today, in a 10 a.m. ceremony near the corner of Avery and North Peters streets, Global Green, a nonprofit environmental organization, will announce that the Home Depot Foundation has become a major contributor to the project, valued at between $7 million and $9 million.
The ceremonial announcement will include the making of a human mural by Los Angeles artist John Quigley, using 1,500 students from New Orleans schools as living mosaic tiles.

Pitt, who visited New Orleans in the early 1990s during the filming of “Interview With a Vampire” and took up semi-permanent residence early this year while filming “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button,” said that he’s impressed with the city’s never-say-die post-Katrina spirit, especially in the hardest hit areas.

“For me, first as a tourist, it’s the most unique city that we have in the States,” he said. “It has an energy like no other place. You guys shouldn’t change a thing. I’ve got to get me some of it. I absolutely love it there. We moved our family there. We’ve got a place there and we’re intermittently going back and forth. We’re in Prague now because of work. We’ll be back there soon.”

Like most New Orleans residents, Pitt seems bewildered by the pace of recovery and paucity of distributed aid.

“I’m concerned for the people who want to get back, especially in the lower-income areas, because it seems that the money they will receive, whenever they finally receive it, is not near what it would cost to replace what they had,” he said. “How is it possible? How is it feasible for them to put their families back together and put their communities back together, if that’s their wish? It’s a real concern.”
Global Green USA’s Holy Cross project has experienced its own delays, but Global Green Director Matt Peterson hopes the public will see progress by late summer.

“We’re not at a place where we can unveil the design on the whole,” he said, citing parking issues that have yet to be worked out with the City Planning Commission. “Our commitment is to have one single-family home up by the second anniversary of Katrina.”

Pitt, an architectural enthusiast, believes that model developments such as the modernistic, 1¼-acre 9th Ward project, may lead the way to general redevelopment.

“You know, this is one little patch of dirt in New Orleans,” he said. “It’s our hope to expand on the ideas put forth in this building project and help get people in homes, help people get to that moment when they can put the key in that lock and walk in their home and know that their family members are doing the same down the street and their kids are going to go to school and their communities are back together.”

Although he hopes to encourage eco-friendly rebuilding here and elsewhere, Pitt said he understands that global environmental concerns are not foremost on the minds of locals dealing with post-K problems.
“I think more than anything, people need help getting in homes,” he said. “It seems to me if you have to rebuild, you can turn it into an opportunity and create something better for the people who have to inhabit (rebuilt homes), because that technology is out there. If you can cut the (energy) bills in half, isn’t that worth going for? If you can make healthier homes, homes that are not making people as sick? I’m referring to cancer rates going up, asthma rates going up. If you can make a home that is better for the environment, and better for the future people who live there, isn’t that worth going for? Isn’t it better to take this catastrophe and actually replenish something that’s better for the people living there? Isn’t that worth going for?

“You guys are a bunch of individuals like no other city, why not be the leaders in this, too?”

That uniqueness proved valuable during the filming of “Benjamin Button,” which Pitt described as “a love letter to New Orleans.”
He predicts it will be released in the latter half of 2008.

“It’ll be worth the wait,” Pitt said. “I think it’s got real merit as a film. It’s a beautiful film — and I am not one to sell a film. I’m not a salesman in any way. I am the most disgruntled viewer in cinematic history. But what I’ve seen is really special.

“The people in the background were so good and so real. It added this life to an otherwise rather dreary scene. It was far superior to anything we’ve experienced before.”

I like this site, but the negative comments bring me down. I just don’t understand why people who hate Angelina would go to a site with information about her. If you do not like someone, then you do not read about them. I think the haters really do like Angie and Brad. Why would anyone waste so much energy and time to wrtie negative comments. I don’t care for Jen and I do not go to sites about her writing negative stuff! Hey haters get a life and leave this site if you hate Angie.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have donated $100,000 to help build the first modern medical facility in Duk County, Sudan, PEOPLE has learned.

The Duk Lost Boys Clinic is the brainchild of John Dau, director of the non-profit organization Direct Change’s Sudan Project and himself one of the “Lost Boys” of the Sudan.

His story is featured in the documentary God Grew Tired of Us, which Pitt executive produced.

Pitt and Jolie, who donated the money through their Jolie-Pitt Foundation, first learned of his efforts to build the clinic at the film’s Hollywood premiere in January, according to a statement from Direct Change.

The clinic, set to open in the spring and serve more than 150,000 people, is located in the village Dau fled as a boy during Sudan’s civil war in the late 1980s.

“Words cannot express my gratitude and the gratitude of the people of Duk County,” Dau said in the statement. “Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt demonstrate the American spirit of generosity. Hopefully, their donation will inspire others to join with us to rebuild southern Sudan.”

Jolie, 31, has a personal connection to the troubled African nation: As a goodwill ambassador for the United Nation’s refugee agency, she recently traveled to Chad, where she met with refugees from Sudan’s war-torn Darfur region.

Later, in an op-ed piece in The Washington Post, she called upon the international community to intervene to stop the violence there.

Earlier this week, Jolie adopted her fourth child, 3-year-old Pax Thien Jolie, from Vietnam. “We are slowly beginning to build his trust and bond,” she tells PEOPLE in its new issue. “But it will feel complete only when we are all together.

Can we say red tape!

It happen every where to include the U.S. Anyone that has ever work for any governmental agency knows what I am talking about.

What’s sad is the people that really need the equipment, food, etc go without while the government plays games.

I could also mean you’re joking to say “I got knocked up”. I mean, I remember reading the same quote in context and she was kidding around. The context was in who had changed most, she said she had because she was the one who “got knocked up” and she never planned on having bio kids.

Why is this so hard to get? I’m confused.

good job Ronit!!!!! :lol: Even the haters are seeing the logic and admitting to it :lol: :lol:

A Mighty Heart (part 1) @ 05/10/2007 at 9:37 pm

Summer Movie Preview

Angelina Jolie’s ‘Mighty Heart’

Paparazzi showdowns, Pakistani secret police, and rumors of a fatwa — all part of the behind-the-scenes tale of filming the Mariane Pearl story on location in south Asia

by Benjamin Svetkey

Even in Pune — one of the most ancient cities in India, settled on a remote edge of the Western Ghats mountain range in the Maharashtra state some eons ago — they gossip about Angelina Jolie. In fact, last fall, when the actress spent five weeks there shooting her latest movie, A Mighty Heart, Puneites talked of nothing else. The local papers were filled with headlines about the star’s every move. There was the one about the terrorist group who purportedly declared a fatwa on Jolie (”There was never any serious threat,” she says, although at one point she was told to keep her children’s cribs ”away from windows”). There was another about Jolie supposedly getting spiritual guidance — and career advice — from one of the town’s resident astrologers (”I’ve never been to an astrologer in my life,” she corrects). And then there was that truly outrageous tale about one of her bodyguards trying to strangle a paparazzo who’d been harassing Jolie since she arrived in the country (okay, so maybe there’s some truth to that one, but we’ll get into it later).

Yet for all the media scrutiny, nobody seemed to notice the one truly newsworthy thing about Jolie’s trip to Pune, the reason she was there in the first place: to tackle her most challenging role in her most serious film since winning that Oscar seven years ago for Girl, Interrupted. In A Mighty Heart, she stars as Mariane Pearl, widow of Daniel Pearl, the Wall Street Journal reporter whose 2002 kidnapping in Pakistan — and subsequent beheading, videotaped and uploaded to the Internet — still ranks as one of the most horrific and tragic episodes in the short, bloody history of modern-day terrorism. Dan Futterman (who got an Oscar nom for writing Capote) has a delicate part in the film as well, playing Daniel in flashbacks; Will Patton portrays the American security officer who teaches Mariane to detangle Pakistan red tape; London actress Archie Panjabi is the Pearls’ closest friend in Karachi; and Bollywood star Irrfan Khan is ”Captain,” the soft-spoken secret policeman who ends up Mariane’s ally.

But, of course, it’s Mariane’s story, based on her 2003 best-seller about her husband’s abduction. The hellish details she lays out in her book about those first few weeks in Karachi after the kidnapping — her frantic phone calls to the American consulate, her slogs through Middle Eastern bureaucracy, the slow piecing-together of what had happened to Daniel — will constitute the bulk of what’s on the screen. ”The story unfolds like a mystery,” Jolie says. ”You’ve got people collecting clues and trying to solve what happened. But it’s also very real and personal. We didn’t want it to be too melodramatic or too polished. We didn’t want it to be a typical movie.”

Which is how Michael Winterbottom — the maverick Brit who built his career by thumbing his nose at Hollywood studios and stars — ended up directing the hottest film actress on the planet in a major summer movie that was bought and paid for by a little company called Paramount. Though he seems a counterintuitive choice, the truth is Winterbottom may be perfect for the job, given his familiarity with the geographic and political terrain (his last film, The Road to Guantánamo, shot in Pakistan, Iran, and Afghanistan, also dealt with victims in the war on terror) and experience with the vérité-style camera work needed to give the film that gritty look Jolie wanted. ”It just seemed too good an opportunity not to do it,” the director says. ”I mean, it was Brad and Angelina asking. That’s a very nice position to be in, you know?”

Unlike her director, Jolie earned her part in the film the old-fashioned way — she flirted with a producer. That would be Brad Pitt, of course, Jolie’s sometime costar, all-the-time boyfriend, and the dad to her four children. Pitt read Mariane Pearl’s book in manuscript form and liked it so much he snapped up the film rights before publication. Originally, he sold the idea of the adaptation to Warner Bros., in partnership with Plan B, his own production company. But Warner cooled on the concept and it languished in development for a year or two, until Pitt cut a new deal to bring the project to Paramount’s revamped specialty arm, Paramount Vantage. The guy who had just been hired to head that division, as it happens, was a former agent named John Lesher. And one of Lesher’s former clients, coincidentally, was a certain English director famous for his disdain for big American studios and stars.

And this, ladies and gentlemen, is how movies get made in Hollywood. A Mighty Heart was immediately put on a fast track at Paramount Vantage. Also, rather unsurprisingly, they ran into problems just as quickly.

Your still in my prayers every night!

A Mighty Heart (part 2) @ 05/10/2007 at 9:39 pm

A Mighty Heart (Part 2)

For starters, there were issues with the Pakistan secret police. In the spirit of realism, Winterbottom spent 10 days in Karachi in July shooting exteriors and a few outdoor scenes — footage of some of the very places where Daniel Pearl had stopped on the day of his kidnapping. ”We were filming the real locations, the real restaurant where he ate and the real hotel he went to,” says Winterbottom. ”At first, I was a little nervous, but when you get there you see that they’re just normal places, like anywhere else. Bad things may have happened there, but that doesn’t make it a bad place.”

The production had been granted permission from the Pakistan government to film in Karachi, but the ISI — the secret police — apparently never got the memo. ”The ISI guys would follow us from our hotel every day,” recalls Andrew Eaton, Winterbottom’s longtime producing partner. ”And they would videotape us filming our movie. I’d love to get ahold of their footage. It’d be great for the DVD.” At one point, the ISI actually tried to stop the crew from filming, having four extras dressed in cop costumes arrested on charges of impersonating an officer. ”It was total harassment,” says Eaton. ”It was a pretty creepy experience.”

When Winterbottom and the rest of the crew gathered in India in October, they got a more enthusiastic reception — too enthusiastic, actually. The secret police were out of the picture, but photographers could be just as brutal, shouting insults at Jolie in hopes of grabbing her attention for a shot. Jolie’s bodyguards took the abuse especially hard; one of them was videotaped literally wringing a paparazzo’s neck. But the incident that caused the biggest PR headache happened while the cast and crew were shooting a scene inside a local Mumbai school. Jolie’s guards were accused of physically blocking parents from picking up their kids, though they claimed they were merely trying to keep the paparazzi from swarming in. Three guards were arrested when the cops arrived, and the ensuing media frenzy got so out of hand Pitt himself had to plead for calm on Indian TV.

”I’ll say this,” Jolie offers. ”We were in a school we were legally allowed to be in. We had permits for exactly what we were doing. And the paparazzi tried to get into the school when we were at the gate, and the parents showed up to get their kids. And the paparazzi rushed through the gates and caused chaos. It was not the film production that caused chaos. We were only guilty of bringing the paparazzi.”

To be sure, things could have been even worse for Jolie. Most of the film was shot in one location, in a house in Pune standing in for the one in Karachi where Mariane held vigil during the the kidnapping. And even when Jolie did venture outside, she wasn’t always immediately recognized; to play Mariane, who was five months pregnant when Daniel disappeared, she strapped on a prosthetic belly and wore a curly wig — to say nothing of the exotic French-Cuban accent she needed to learn to sound more like Mariane. (The studio says that initial reports that she darkened her skin with makeup for the role are false.) ”It would usually take about five minutes before people would figure out that it was Angelina,” says Futterman. ”So we ended up shooting a lot of the exterior stuff in five-minute increments.”

Jolie, though, sometimes had a harder time staying inside. Winterbottom’s inimitable shooting style is a little like the taping of a reality show: He uses handheld cameras and no studio lighting, encourages as much improvisation as the story line allows, and then simply follows his actors around wherever they go. ”The crew would have to find places to hide — behind curtains or in the bathroom — to stay out of the shots,” Jolie says of the process. ”The great thing about it is if you felt like going somewhere else while doing a scene, you could. But it could get intense. Michael and I would have disagreements over wherehe could follow me. We came up with a system. If I closed the door, he couldn’t follow. If I left it open, he could. I just needed to know that if things got too heavy, there’d be a place for me to cry by myself.”

That, by the way, was not something Jolie worried about on the set of Lara Croft: Tomb Raider. Or on Mr. & Mrs. Smith. And it’s one of the things that make A Mighty Heart so potentially interesting. Since winning her Oscar, Jolie’s onscreen persona has been transformed by a series of tentpole action roles, and her offscreen footprint has grown so huge (something to do with that boyfriend of hers) it threatens to eclipse all else in her life and career. But with A Mighty Heart, the actress has the chance to show why she got that little golden guy in the first place. She can remind people of something her new supersize celebrity status almost makes them forget.

That she can actually act.

piper, with a low @ 05/10/2007 at 9:40 pm

Can we smile at the fact that Shiloh’s turning 1? The fact that the haters were so convinced that Brad and Angelina’s relationship would peter out because Angelina said she was content with only adopting?

Can we smile about the fact that in January 2006, we fans, despite seeing Angelina sporting a baby bump on several gossip sites, finally got confirmation that 1)Brad and Angelina were doing it 2)Brad clearly hit the bullseye 3)Angelina considered another possibility besides adoption 4)Brad and Angelina were together, for themselves and their children 5)The shriveled ‘carrot’ that the hens hoped would lure Brad to their fold was clearly replaced by a gardenful of possibilities - both biological and adopted?

The fact is Angie has Brad and the four Kids X should have givem him but didn’t, so for that reason alone the haters will never give in. To the haters who are picking @ every single word that comes out of AJ’s mouth, consider this, X went on almost every talk show in america to express her need and desire to have children when we all know she really didn’t. X also denied to the very end that she had ever had a relationship with VV then turned around @ the end and denied they were breaking up, she also stated that she dosen’t believe that BP was the love of her life. She was a TV actress who lucked out and got a Major movie star to marry her by pretending to wan’t the same things he did, when my husband has to go away on buisness we make time to show each other love. There’s no way in hell he goes away for six months and I dont go to see him once, It’s f**king Brad Pitt for God sake, did she really think she could treat him like **** forever and he would never wake up? She needed a F**king slap and if I ever see her or meet her I’ll tell her what a jackass she was and is. Now she can never have him back so get over it ********.

#185, why don’t you jst change your name to “duh.” you dumb ASS. National Ledger interpretations of the Elle article and what youhad posted before don’t COUNT. That is the same damned interview, with someone as stupid as you are misinterpretating what she said, only this time, unlike you - they took her quote out of context, and left out what came before and after - namely that “brad changed me,” and I had a “reversal.” If a pregnancy is unplanned, you don’t get to change or reverse anything - you did not decide anything. There is NO decision making process. Your IQ MUST be your shoe size. I’ve just decided I have wasted half my night responding to someone who is mentally challenged. I should have just offered my sympathies and scrolled on.

Done with you haters.

Hi Sheri, MAMS, Lady G, Alexandrina, Ronit, lula, lou!

Sheri - I lived in NC for a while, the humidity killed me. I would open the door and get existential crises: why am I here? why do I have to go to work? why is it so hot? why? why? why?

Ladies, please, stop trying to explain anything to the trolls.

You are a f**king b*tch Cliniqua. How dare you speak to people the way you do, there was no foul language and degrading name-calling until you came along. I don’t know what gutter you crawled out of but you are seriously trashy. Why can’t you give your opinion without resorting to the low levels that you do? You bring the level of JJ’s threads to the gutter when you come around.

OK OK, Angelina got knocked up to seal the deal with Brad. The conversation went like this:

Brad: If you want me to hang around being the daddy to Maddox and Z, you’ll have to get knocked up and deliver unto me, a bio baby with my DNA.

Angelina: OK, I’ll get knocked up and give you your very own bio baby just so that you’ll stay and be a daddy to Maddox and Z, but you must promise me that you’ll love Maddox and Z as much as you love your own biobaby.

Brad: Damn, you drive a hard bargain. You mean, if you have a bio baby with my DNA, I have to promise to be a LOVING daddy to Maddox and Z too AND LOVE them all equally??

Angelina: Deal - NO Deal??

Brad: F*ck, OK, Deal.

Good God! Are we still on the Shiloh was not planned track? The child is gonna be one in a few weeks and people are still carrying on about her not being planned. It’s kinda scary that there are some people h*ll bent on seeing a difference between Shiloh and her siblings? I tell ya, I’m beginning to think this is more about them than it is about AJ.

To Uh
I’ll try to explain this in the simplest terms, so here goes. AJ said she didn’t plan on getting pregnant. This is not news to us, before BP, she said she won’t have biological children….which means she didn’t plan on getting pregnant. During the Anne Curry interview she stated that after meeting BP, things changed….which means She changed her mind about having a biological child I.E getting pregnant….However, this does not mean that Shiloh was not planned. Jeez, read the interview again and try to understand what she meant, which is this…..she is the one who’s changed, SHE, who didn’t think she’d get pregnant got pregnant. She is not a 16 yrs old school girl. Goodness, don’t you think if she really didn’t want to get pregnant, she won’t use all the protection in the world to stop that from happening?

So bottom line…..Changing your mind about getting pregnant does an unplanned pregnancy make, okay?

Honestly!

What’s wrong with the 2 quote’s ? she didn’t said she doesn’t want any bio kids nor Shiloh was accidental ? deal with it. the RD interview just proven all delusional haters and tabbies lies were wrong. stop picking on Angie’s every word , over analyze it and twisted it to fit your delusion. Accept it Brad and Angie are in love and building a life together. there’s no way Brad’s going back to the self-absorbed, selfish, the real fraud Maniston.

no longer a lurker @ 05/10/2007 at 10:11 pm

what i really cannot understand with these haters is the fact that they know this thread is about the j-p’s yet they continue to read and comment then goes balistic when someone attacks them. they said they don’t like the j-p’s (or brad or angie) yet why do they read every single article and post pertaining to these people and take their precious time in analyzing every minute details of the article to find something wrong with what has been said either by angie or brad. they call us j-p fans loonies but imo they’re a lot loonier than us because they claim they hate the j-p’s yet they continue to read every article and threads posted. i myself will not waste my time to read articles or thread pertaining to celebrities i don’t like (let alone celebrities i hate) since i’m not interested in anything that would be written in it.

You are a f**king b*tch Cliniqua. How dare you speak to people the way you do, there was no foul language and degrading name-calling until you came along. I don’t know what gutter you crawled out of but you are seriously trashy. Why can’t you give your opinion without resorting to the low levels that you do? You bring the level of JJ’s threads to the gutter when you come around.

_____________________

Oh, look — there they are. Right on time. The cowards who are afraid of me, and think up fake names to stab me in the back after I go Ving Rhames on AJ’s haters. Niiiiice.

I guess they haven’t figured out that it doesn’t work. But it will distract us from our primary mission AS USUAL, and that is defending this family, and discussing news about them.

So wait — here goes….

I am soooo sorry, please forgive me, oh hater (or regular member that hates my guts and is posing in disguise, lolol) - I promise never, never, ever, NEVER to insult anyone who comes on these boards and says Angelina is a cold ***** who is using her dying mother, and who hates her baby daughter. People who say such things deserve to be talked to civilly and I misbehaved and have brought the boards down to the gutter, we should be able to discuss what the haters mantain ( and that is that AJ is an inhumanly cold b*tch who doesn’t love her daughter or her Mother and uses them for PR) in a civil polite manner.

I look forward to having many rational discussions with others who come on these boards and try to character assassinate her.

There, was that apologetic enough ‘GO AWAY’ or shall I apologize some more?

You cowardly rank sh*tty little piss of turncoat scum!

That’s it - keep up the good work — the haters should know that if they come on our boards starting sh*t, they have nothing to worry about - because there are a so-called JP ‘fans’ who will gladly shiv each other in the back, so the hater can continue their abuse of AJ.

Congrats numbskulls!

I like this site, but the negative comments bring me down. I just don’t understand why people who hate Angelina would go to a site with information about her. If you do not like someone, then you do not read about them.
+++++++++

The backstory on celebrity blogs is that they were originally set up specifically to bash and put down famous people. They bloggers were snarky and b&tchy and the readers were encouraged to be the same or worse. Don’t let their “disclaimers” on their site fool you. They could care less but they want to seem legit. The people used to posting on these blogs assume that all blogs are this way. That’s why when they come to a blog like JJ’s they do what they do at all the other blogs. They laugh and call the nice bloggers worshippers because they don’t know any alternative but to hate. They are dismayed that a celebrity blog would have “fans” because the blogs were supposed to represent the direct opposite function that a fansite serve. So they attack the people posting here as well as the celebrities.

I dunno, I think it’s nice to see someone with a whole lotta extra cash actually use it for something besides 1,000 face cream. And use existing architectural styles of the existing (or pre-existing) area. Using good planning & building practices. Yeah there was/is crime, poverty and general fucked-up-ness there, but that isn’t every resident, every family. The people who truly want to come home, I believe can, and with something like this to get things started, why not? Not such a terrible way to revive a place, going outside the usual channels to make it happen…

An A for effort, but a C for design. The final architectural plan from Global Green USA looks like something Mike Brady might have come up with in the early 70’s. Okay , what really looks awful is the beige aluminum siding or whatever the heck that stuff is cladding the structure: yuck! Heat-reflecting white stucco would have been more attractive imo.

Estelle and Alexanderina
Hiya ladies, how are you doing? Are you as lost as I am with all the threads? I swear i can’t keep up and I’ve still got emails to catch up on.

=====================================================
Hiya AG, I am doing good, how about you? And yeah I am lost with all the threads, but I am sticking to this one, cause I think it is the current one. I am up to date on my e-mails, it is not that bad :)

From US Weelky:
In the June issue of Reader’s Digest Angelina Jolie talks about meeting Brad and being a mom of four (or more).

From bringing Pax home to finding time for romance and tackling global issues, Jolie’s got a plan for everything. Check out interview excepts below, and listen to the audio at Reader’s Digest.

On how Brad changed her life:
I met this amazing person, and we realized we had very similar views on how we wanted to live our lives. It’s happened quickly, with so many children. Yesterday, picking up the kids from school, Brad turned around in the car, and there were three of them. He couldn’t stop laughing. We love them and are having a great time.

On getting pregnant with Shiloh:
Before I met Brad, I always said I was happy never to have a child biologically. He told me he hadn’t given up that thought. Then, a few months after Z came home, I saw Brad with her and Mad, and I realized how much he loved them, that a biological child would not in any way be a threat. So I said, “I want to try.”

On Pax’s homecoming:
The first two days, he cried a lot. I hired a translator, and he would explain what was going on. The first night, I slept alone with him. I was expecting him to wake up and scream, but he woke and just stared at me. I handed him a stuffed animal, and we walked around the room pointing at things. By day three, he didn’t want me to put him down. I think he got used to the reality that somebody loves you and that’s what a mommy is.

On the problem of sibling rivalry:
We had a long talk with Mad about the fact that his brother is going to be scared and that Mommy is going to have to give him attention. And we’ve tried to figure out a lot of private time for each of them. When everybody goes to bed, we give Mad time. When everybody is at school, we give Shiloh time. In between, Z and Pax each get special time. And on Sundays we have a big family sleep, when the boys get in bed with us and we watch a movie. It started with Mad, then Pax, and now Z is desperate to move into the bed. We’re talking about having to build a bigger bed!

On Brad’s adjustment to family life:
He couldn’t go with us to Vietnam to get Pax because he was working. But they got together very quickly. I think Pax, after seeing how much Zahara and Mad and Shi love Brad, understands that he’s his daddy. Everybody seems to be safe in his arms. He makes everybody laugh. He helps everybody.

On the topic of more children:
More biological, more adopted.

On who provides the discipline:
When it comes to the boys, it’s Brad, and with the girls, it’s me. It’s not intentional, but Z can pretty much get anything she wants from her dad. Brad’s like a strong father with the boys.

On losing her mother:
I’m one of those people who walk around as if it’s fine, and then suddenly I don’t know why I’m crying over my breakfast. My mother was my best friend. I’m so grateful I had her as a mom. She had cancer for seven years, but she lived long enough to see my brother and I grow up to be quite happy. You almost get the feeling she held on until it was okay.

On finding time to be alone with Brad:
Right now, that’s our problem! We hang out. We try to talk over the swing set. We’ll have a date night once everybody is settled…we’ll get them occupied with a movie and popcorn and try to run off and lock the door for a bit.

On whether she and Brad argue:
Not really. We’ll get into issues about global events or something that was just on the news.

On Brad as a partner:
He encourages the right things. If I’ve had a full day and just really been a hands-on mom, he’ll make a point to let me know that’s something he’s proud of. If I’m writing an Op-Ed, he’s the first person to want to read the drafts. I could be dressed up in the sexiest outfit for a photo shoot, and by his behavior, he’ll let me know that’s nice, but it’s nothing as sexy as when I’m home surrounded by the kids or reading books, educating myself. He slows me down to kind of get it right, to relax into the strength of my family and the love.

Main Entry: knocked up
Part of Speech: adj
Definition: pregnant
Usage: slang

From Dictionary.com :)

As you can see, what Angelina was saying was, “I wasn’t planning on getting pregnant [before Brad]. I’m the one that got knocked up! [I'm the one that got pregnant]. So if you look at it that way, it was me who had the reversal [So, I never thought I'd get pregnant, but I did, so you can see that it was me who changed my mind].

IS THAT CLEAR ENOUGH?!

Someone asked this on the last thread but I did not see an answer. Can Reader’s Digest be purchased at Barnes and Noble etc or is it subscription only?

The horse has nine lives? or the cat? RIP? IGNORE!! Do not respond.

ENJOY!! ENJOY!! all the interviews.

I love how all the tabs, blogs, entertainment news, etc. are picking up this story from JJ. How many of those outlets even remember that Readers Digest exist? Some young un don’t even know what that is! They would never have found out if someone didn’t get it from here. No one would have ever thought of her doing an interview with them.

Reader's Digest @ 05/10/2007 at 11:24 pm

From wikipedia

Reader’s Digest is the best-selling consumer magazine in the United States, with a circulation of over 10 million copies in the United States, and a readership of 38 million as measured by Mediamark Research (MRI).

According to MRI, Reader’s Digest reaches more readers with household incomes of $100,000+ than Fortune, The Wall Street Journal, Business Week and Inc. combined. Global editions of Reader’s Digest reach an additional 40 million people in more than 70 countries, with 50 editions in 21 languages.

Again out of context, she was saying exactly what she said in RD, she was talking about before she met BRAD she wasn’t thinking about having a biological child. Now that you admited you lied about Ann Cury story, go listen to it you nutjob (must be an FF’er) she says “I never thought I would have a bio baby but after I met Brad things felt different”. Now nutjob (hey I like that term it suits you well). Give the beginning of the paragraph the whole thing why she said he changed her.
As far as I can see it there is two huge liars Jen and her lunatic fans.
=====================
exactly. The uh person must be *slow*.

“You could say he changed me.”

He changed her mind about having a bio baby. DUH!

I just read the Reader’s Digest interview and was grinning from ear to ear. Loved it. It was confirmation of everything I imagined about that family. Z has Brad wrapped around her finger, family movies in the bed, Brad laughing at the sight of three children (his) in the backseat of the car.

They are a loving family and I wish them the very best.

Hopefully, the kids will buy MOM an iron for Mother’s Day. Her blouses and Brad’s jacket look like they slept in them. Brad could also use some new boots. Those old,grey,suede things are beat.

She had cancer for seven years, but she lived long enough to see my brother and I grow up to be quite happy. You almost get the feeling she held on until it was okay.

_______________________

By the way, just wanted to add…the part in bold is more proof Angelina didn’t really know when her Mom was going to go, or how long she had left. If she knew or had been told that Marcheline had 3 months or 6 months, she wouldn’t have said that. So sure, she was concerned because maybe Marcheline wasn’t looking well and she knew she might be taking a downturn - but she had rallied before. I think when talking to RD, her language was in retrospect, knowing what she knows now, about what ultimately happened.

I hate to bring Paltry into this, but her Dad, who had cancer, died on a trip with her to Rome. She hadn’t seen him for a while, and had been filming (HELLO?!! Yoo hoo HATERS??!! She wasn’t ‘hovering’ either!) so she decided to go on a trip with him. ANYWAY….he died on the trip with her. Now, if we wanted to be as evil as the haters and fanistons, ‘Paltrow killed her Dad…didn’t she know he was going to die, why would she take him overseas and exert him like that??!!’ You see how cruel that is? But somehow, despite Angelina being in LA the entire time Brad was filming O13, and being with Marchelina a LOT, visiting with the kids, alone time just the two of them, doing spa and day trips (This is according to US Rag, and they are not exactly “we love Brangelina” Central) — the haters are still holding her to a diff standard and kicking her in the head, because she has Brad.

OMG…OT - but what do you think if Angie had said the following:

Cameron Diaz On pretty prejudice:
“If a woman who’s a successful actress weighs 300 pounds and has warts, nobody ever asks her, ‘Do you think you made it because you’re ugly?’ So why should there be prejudice against someone who’s had some success in films and looks a little better than average. It’s all in my genes, so don’t hold it against me.”

LMAO. Diaz has some opinion about herself doesn’t she? LOL If that had been Angelina that said that, there would be rioting in every city in America, hater loser b*tches would be gathering posses to hunt her down. LOL

As it is, it’s just Cameron Diaz, who’s more than a bit deluded, so people are just laughing! :lol:

Thank you Madame MF for the wonderful video, I love the song and the photos (a shout out to Ell, merci Beaucoup).

Goodnight Missouri fan and all the other fans. This one is for you, Missouri Fan, you have been sending us wonderful video gifts, I think you deserve one as well. I am sure you have watched this before. Night! Keep on voting everyone!

Good night JPfan!

MF thanks for the video, I’m still voting before I go to bed.

I read somewhere that Maddox is attending the Lycée Français in Prague.
That makes sense, considering he was attending a French school in NOLA.
There are Lycées all over the world and they all work with the same official French program.
Plus Maddox gets to communicate in French no matter where he is. Nice!

I miss Coal, Guli, JoliePitt and so many others…

thanks but what is the title of the article.

Still voting in between my real work. I usually don’t do this, but when I read that the FF’ers are voting against Papa Pitt, then I got real mad and decided to do what I can to make sure Papa Pitt won. I have four different computers at work open (thank God the boss is gone) and am voting intermittently, plus a friend of mine does her share too. She loves Angie so she’s doing what she can for Angie’s man.

BRAD NEEDS OUR VOTES @ 05/11/2007 at 3:03 am

Take a moment to VOTE for BRAD,,Hateful Anustunk’s are voting for Jon B., out of Hatred for Angelina and Brad ,their right on Brads heel.So when you get a moment please VOTE for BRAD.Thanks BAMPZS.

Hey Cliniqua, you’ve brought good arguments in 224! Thanks for trying to give the haters some common sense and education.
But as you said, haters are filled with hatred. In fact haters are afraid of admitting to Angelina, it’s like giving up their hateful ego.

It’s so easy to judge Angelina. I don’t know how I would be in her situation. Just imagine to be observed, interpreted and judged by strangers who have never met you, and they all write about you as if they know you in and out. They twist your word for their own necessity either to sell their tabs or to feed their hatred. As a celebrity is really hard not to lose core and true self. It’s so easy to yield to the public eyes and the public expectations. Many celebrities don’t realize that they have sold their souls to the tabs, red carpet mentality, etc. They have become the dolls of show business.

One of you here on the thread has said and I agree with her/him: one of many reasons why I like Angelina is that she is so outspoken and sincere and doesn’t mind what people think of her (***** or whatever). She does not need to pretend somebody else and surely not to please the tabs nor the haters.

I like to come here now and then and drop my opin
