Angelina Jolie: I Want 13 or 14 Kids

Angie is well-read and speaks with ease on many topics of which most Americans know nothing, let alone could converse about.

There’s a few folks here complaining who need to go read a book and enlighten themselves.

This was a great interview! It was probably nice to have an intelligent interviewer after listening to Larry King fumble his way through his questions!

Angelina Jolie: Brad and I May Want Up to 14 Kids

FRIDAY JUNE 15, 2007 08:05 AM EDT

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt already have four young children – but they may not be planning to stop there.

On Thursday’s Daily Show, Jon Stewart wondered how many kids Jolie wanted in all, asking: “How high we going, you think?”

Replied Jolie: “It fluctuates between seven and 13 or 14.” The audience howled and Jolie laughed, and Stewart said, “Wow, I’ll tell you this: I admire that, because two is kicking my ass.”

Jolie quipped: “Yeah, I understand that. Four is kind of kicking our ass, but we kind of feel like, ‘Damn it, we’re up for the challenge!’ ”

The actress, 32, has been in New York City promoting her and Pitt’s new movie A Mighty Heart, which premiered Wednesday.

Stewart asked Jolie about a FOX News story claiming that journalists at a junket on Wednesday had been asked to sign a contract before talking to her requiring that they not ask about her personal life – a common request at press events.

“There was a memo that went out to ask people if they would sign it that said, ‘Don’t get into personal questions, focus on the movie,’ and things like that,” Jolie explained. “It was from my representative trying to be protective of me, but it was excessive and I wouldn’t have put it out there.”

On Thursday, Jolie’s lawyer, Robert Offer, issued a mea culpa, telling The New York Times the document was the fault of a “bone-headed, overzealous lawyer” – himself – and that Jolie hadn’t been aware of it.

“This was my creating something to protect her from the press’s talking about personal matters, a document that would limit discussion to the film,” he said. “But it was drafted overly broadly. It was well intended, but I understand how it was received.”

Also on Thursday, Jolie appeared on CNN’s Larry King Live, where she described raising the latest addition to her family, 3-year-old Pax Thien, whom she adopted from Vietnam in March (he joined Maddox, 5; Zahara, 2; and Shiloh, 1). “He’s wild. He’s beautiful and wild,” she said.

“He had no freedoms for three and a half years. … He lived in the same place on the same cot along with 20 other cots and did things at the exact same time and had no chance to have an opinion himself or do – he lived a very structured life. But he’s also suddenly very free.”

She explained that her new son’s name was suggested by her own mother, actress Marcheline Bertrand, before her death from ovarian cancer in January. “My mom wrote a list of names when we were going to have Shiloh,” said Jolie. “One of the names that she suggested was Pax because it meant peace. [But] he’s anything but at the moment.”

LOS ANGELES, June 14 — The pen is mightier than the sword, they say. But not, apparently, when celebrity gossip is part of the equation. Then the pen has to deal with a lawyer.

The international celebrity do-gooder Angelina Jolie found herself in a strange situation this week when she insisted that journalists at the premiere of her new movie about a murdered journalist — a screening that was in itself an event on behalf of persecuted journalists — sign an agreement limiting their questions and their use of her answers.

The agreement, while not unprecedented in Hollywood, did not go down well with the journalists. Ms. Jolie was granting interviews regarding her new film, “A Mighty Heart,” in which she plays Mariane Pearl, the wife of Daniel Pearl, the Wall Street Journal correspondent who was murdered by Islamic extremists in Pakistan. The film will be released by Paramount Vantage on June 22.

The movie premiere on Wednesday night at the Ziegfeld Theater in New York was a benefit for Reporters Without Borders, the Paris-based nonprofit organization that champions press freedom around the world.

Reporters hoping to interview Ms. Jolie were asked to sign a document forbidding them to ask her about her personal relationships. The agreement went on: “The interview may only be used to promote the Picture. In no event may Interviewer or Media Outlet be entitled to run all or any portion of the interview in connection with any other story.” And, “the interview will not be used in a manner that is disparaging, demeaning or derogatory to Ms. Jolie.”

Most of the media outlets, including The Associated Press, declined to sign, Paramount said.

Ms. Jolie’s lawyer, Robert Offer, said that the statement was the fault of a “bone-headed, overzealous lawyer” — meaning himself — and that his client was unaware of the move. “This was my creating something to protect her from the press’s talking about personal matters, a document that would limit discussion to the film,” he said. “But it was drafted overly broadly. It was well intended, but I understand how it was received.”

Ms. Jolie herself declined to comment.

Still, this wasn’t the first time such an agreement was used. Mr. Offer said journalists were asked to sign a similar agreement around the release of “Mr. and Mrs. Smith,” when Ms. Jolie and her co-star Brad Pitt caused a media firestorm over their apparent affair and the collapse of Mr. Pitt’s marriage to Jennifer Aniston.

At the time, Mr. Offer said, journalists signed the agreement.

Ms. Jolie’s manager, Geyer Kosinski, said the new document was meant to “guide” journalists, not control them, because Ms. Jolie has a tendency to speak frankly. “She is an incredibly candid, honest person, who is undeterred herself in answering questions,” he said. “Our collective intention was to protect her.”

A spokeswoman for Paramount Vantage denied an accusation on the Foxnews.com Web site that Ms. Jolie had banned Fox from the red carpet at the premiere, and that it was given a spot only after the studio intervened. “It was an omission,” the spokeswoman said, “an honest mistake.”

Another Thread!!!!!!!!!

Jared this old girl can’t keep up! I have arthritis you know. (along with all of the other itises. lol Survive Breast Cancer and then suffer aches and pains. what’s a body to do?!)

Anyway, question…

I checked out the JJB B&A mega Post and the picture of them at the Bansky Art Show was posted — you know the one with her hair straight and wearing the black trench? — is it me or does Brad have that look of “Yeah, that’s right Angie is mine”? Either that or “We just had the most amazing sex!”

She looks gorgeous. You can see how relaxed she is.

For those still b!tchin about the faux news thing, let it foukin go.

LoL @ 7 to 13 or 14 kids. I have a feeling she is not joking. Brad did say at once that he wanted 12 kids.

she’S a *****!

———————–

Is this a fill in the gap quiz? Well, that’s much too easy..

she’s a..cut above most HW actors by virtue of the fact that she could just as easily spend her time being photographed shopping, or going into beauty salons or tanning herself on some beach….but she prefers to exercise her brain and learn about the world and the unfairness of it and then try in her own way to do something about it…..
or
She’s a wonderful inspirational person
She’s a good human being
She’s a person who wants to make a difference
She’s an intelligent woman

How’s that for starters?

Everyone have chin,but Jennifer Aniston has a big chin.

Whoa. Don’t bring up Jennifer. The girl has done good for herself; so, let’s not judge her. Let’s leave the past where it should be. Otherwise, this is what helps breed animosity here. Let’s just focus on Angelina. She was great in both interviews. Beautifully candid as always. I’m also glad that she addressed her weight loss during the press conference. It’s much easier to say, “She’s too thin” than remember what she had gone through this year. I hope she appears more on TDS. Jon is so funny, and that definitely makes him sexy.

Dear Mr&Mrs. Jolie-Pitt,

May I be your fifth adoptee?
Sixth? Seventh? Fourteenth??

I was born in a somewhat underdeveloped country..

Zahara&I will have such good fun.

Sincerely,
Lulu
