OlderBrad & Angelina’s French Park Adventures
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie took three of their kids — Maddox, 5, Pax, 3, and Zahara, 2 — to French amusement park Aventure-Parc in Massignac, France on Monday.
“We’re a small little town, we’re not used to having celebrities,” said one park employee. “We don’t get French celebrities, so it’s completely crazy to find yourself standing with Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, the most chased-after couple in the world in front of you. Completely crazy.”
“I asked myself, ‘Who is this man with a ball cap and this woman with black sunglasses?’ ” another staffer told People. “We were all extremely shocked.”
“To see Brad Pitt knocking around in a bouncy castle with his children [and] screaming like wild animals was like a hallucination,” said park operator Benjamin Gautier.
The three-acre park in France’s Charente-Limousin region features rope climbing courses between trees, rope swings and other outdoor activities. Staff offered to waive the 5 € entry fee, but Brad and Angie insisted on paying.

They should stay in France until they kick off. No one would miss them.

In life, nothing is ever perfect. The most important thing is CONTENTMENT.
If you can rise to the ocassion, improvise, think, solve the problem, and adapt to your enviroment, you can still be happy.
Prince William was born to royalty. Many people may feel he cannot live a normal life. But I am sure many people will trade their postion for princehood in a heart beat.
There is nothing wrong with the life of the Jolie Pitt. They are happy. I’ve noticed that in spite of being hounded and spied on, they managed to find times alone, vacation with their children. This is what I mean. They find a solution to all these. They adapt to the environment. Brad is very good at that. Do you remember there was NO pic of them spending 10 days in Missouri. When Angie came back from Vietnam with Pax, they were gone 1 week. NO pic of them. No one to this day know where they were. They were definitely NOT in LA because the paps know where they live. Another example, when Angie’s mother passed away, there is absolutely no pic of the griving daughter and until they were back in NOLA, no pic surfaced.
With this current outing at the park, the pics were far away. No paps shoves the camera in front of their face. No pic of them in the restaurant.
By the time the news of where they are, they are LONG gone.
This is why I love Brad. He is a smart man. He anticipates what is going to happen. He therefore provides solution for them. This is the material of a CEO. He is and will be a very good producer, since he possesses all the traits of a CEO.
hey! if you stop yapping and listen really good, you can hear the faint sounds of shiloh calling the nanny Mommy.
:)
poor shiloh, the family’s golden black sheep!
Oh god, people are this desperate to see this couple. Leave them alone! They are just trying to live their lives!
I think these photos have got to be the fuzziest set of “Brangelina exclusives” yet. Kudos to the Brad & Angie for having figured out a way to keep the razzi off their tails! It’s been a whole week since we’ve had clear photos of them. I hope that trend continues - at least until they get back to the states! After that the razzi will find them and be on them like flies on caca. After all…they’re breaking up ya know.
I notice that Jared has an ad for Chelsea Handler’s show up. I understand that the man’s got to make a living, but Chelsea’s clearly drunk the E! kool-aid. I checked in for a couple of episodes - she has a panel of ‘celebs’ talk about topics. She had Ken Baker on (former west coast editor of UStinkly). The first topic was celebrity adoption. Now, if you want to talk about adoption, the list is frickin’ endless: Tom Cruise/Nicole Kidman, Stephen Spielberg, Calista Flockhart, Sharon Stone, Meg Ryan, and ACTUALLY in the entertainment news this week, Michelle Pfeiffer. But did they talk about anyone except for Angelina (BP curiously missing the diss!)? No. Bai Ling knows her from Sky Captain and tried to defend her, but Ken Baker said emphatically that everything, including adopting her children, was for PR. Bai Ling is not exactly a fluent speaker of English (plus she’s a bit wacko), so Chelsea leapt right in and tried to twist her support of AJ into something perverse. I have to give BL credit; she did not give up. And Victoria Jackson (no brain trust herself) piped up with I don’t know why she can’t adopt from her own country.
To that, I say, Mariane Pearl said it best, Angelina is a citizen of the world.
Anyway. That was a pretty sour experience. Then i cruised by another night and who was on the panel? Ted C. I did not even stop to see what shizz he was purveying.
There must have been a memo. Thou shalt trash the JPs — really AJ, and if some celeb says something nice about one of them, omit or edit or make into something negative if at all possible and if not, downplay.
I guess, what did I expect from the ‘network’ that sends only love to Paris, Paula Abdul, and Eva Longoria (not that I have anything against Eva, but you’d think she was an Oscar-calibre actress and actually newsworthy the amount of suck-up coverage they provide.
Okay, my rant is over for today. Love live the J-Ps!

If you stop whining long enough, you will hear how foolish you sound.
Shiloh knows who her mother is and it ain’t you. AJ probably spends more time with all her children, including the much loved baby Shiloh, then a bunch of bitter women whining on a blog. Peace.
~Dang,you really have to be crazy,lost,stupid,delusional,mental,a liar yourself to believe anything the Tabbies say about anybody. Those b a s t a r d s really are out to destroy people to make money. They do not a conscious. You have to be a evil person to work for any of those lying pages. They enjoy breaking people. I believe that Britney spears is a victim of the tabloids mean machine. I would like to give her a free pass,but,she helped them destroy her. They try and break you,and when they do ,it’s on. Janice mean,Ted C-unt, loser Friedman and others are trying to earn a reputation for destroying the weak and famous,and the good rich and famous. I hate em.
Peace~
AH! Latest on Brangelina. Thanks Jared!

Youll have to try harder than that, A-hole. If what youre trying to do is generate hate for Brad and Ange by suggesting that they dont love THEIR LOVE CHILD, youve just got to make a stronger argument…………if youre capable, that is.

That castle has total privacy and 26 rooms. I wonder if Jamie and girlfriend along with the Pitt family will be visiting soon. The place is large enough and the kids (Doug and Julie) are out for the summer. Man, that place is so cool. What a life!! Can you imagine them going back to their town telling their friends they went to France for the summer and stayed in castle?
If I had their bankroll, I would definitely travel like they do. I would love to see the entire world!

I don’t understand it either . She looks like a clown!
Today’s resident troll is so grasping at straws.. Aventure parks are not for kids Shiloh’s age.

And Victoria Jackson (no brain trust herself) piped up with “I don’t know why she can’t adopt from her own country.”
&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&&
Because she’s a Republican, and those whitebred racists are all about the good ‘ol U.S.A. and hate everyone/anyone from anywhere else.

Have you heard of “to diversify”? Your speciality of selling ideas of this family to the mag may be coming to an end . I suggest you should start cutting down your expense, since the mags will be paying more on the Beckhams .
Well, I bet all the tabs are beginning to shift the focus on the Beckams. You may say star this week is still on the Pitts, but remember star is always behind.

=====================================================================
You are so right, Gussie.
I wonder did this same person whine and moan when Zahara at that age wasn’t included in activites? There was many of time that it was just Brad and Mad or Angie and Mad or Brad, Angie, and Mad.
And, yes age is a major factor in where a child is concern.
Greetings to all! Thanks Jared for the pics.
Good Morning America, Good Afternoon Europe, Good Evening Asia.
Hello to all Jolie-Pitt fans around the globe. Hello to People Mag, Us Weekly and other tabloids staff. Also hello to Huvane paid trolls.
Give love and let us all keep the peace.
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie visit Massigny Charente
Incredible news, simply unbelievable. Those we witnessed it are still on cloud nine. Those who were not there will regret it for the rest of their lives. Monday, between 12h30 and 13h30, the sexiest and most spied on couple in the world spent an hour incognito at Adventure Park, the theme park of Massignac, in the heart of the Charente Limousine area.
Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt and three of their children had fun at “Pitchoun Park” (Pitchoun Park is the section of Adventure Park reserved for younger kids. Adventure parks are usually for older children (8+), teen-agers and adults, but they all have a subdivision for “the kiddies” – “les pitchoun”), ate some ice-cream and left as they come. Inconspicuously. Just a little “au revoir” (goodbye) in French and a discreet smile before rushing into a Mercedes Van with “75″ license plates. (plates with the 75 number are from the Paris region)
The nine park employees present were having a quiet lunch. “I was at the snack-bar counter. Six people came in. There was a couple with hat and sunglasses, three children and a man with a headset. He came ahead and asked in English if it was possible to have some activities for the children” remembers Laure, who took some moments to realize who they were: “I told myself, wow the woman has Angelina Jolie’s lips, I frankly did not immediately recognize Brad Pitt, but when I saw the three children, two Asians and a black one, it clicked.
“We were stunned”
Charlène, another colleague, thought it was a joke. “When Laura told me Brad Pitt was there, I thought she just meant a hot guy had come in and then I saw them… “Very quickly the other employees realized what was happening as they saw the large family go through. “ We did not know what to do, we were all a bit stunned… and even though there were not many people around, we didn’t want to excite everyone, to create a scene” tells Maud who tried with two other colleagues to swap a photo for a free entry (15 euros).
“The bodyguard told us it was impossible, he was categorical. Besides, he was always keeping watch on the surroundings, he was everywhere, checking for the slightest suspicious movement.” Meanwhile, both American stars and their three kids, Maddox, five, Pax Thien, three, and Zahara, two, played and laughed. Like any other family on a holiday. “To see Brad Pitt making his sons bounce on the rubber cylinders, as they howled like wild animals was amazing”, Maud still finds hard to believe this has happened.
The popsicle sticks
The Adventure Park seasonal workers’ only regret is not having been able to take photographs or to get an autograph. Their only trophies are the carefully kept sticks from the popsicles eaten by the stars. Sebastien alone managed to immortalize this event by snapping some pics with his mobile phone camera. The sharpest photo is displayed in the manager’s office with the ticket “collector”. (part of the ticket detached and kept by the entrance guard)
The manager, Benjamin Gauthier, is absolutely gutted. On Monday, the weather was not very nice and he decided to take a break. “When I saw so many unanswered calls on my cell phone, I thought some problem must have occurred. I called my deputy and he told me Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie had just left the park. I told him to stop kidding around… When I came in the next day I understood… they all could only speak of this.
Since Monday, the news spread through Massignac. Not convincingly. “People thought it was a gag”, admit the two hostesses from the local tourist office.
As for knowing what the planet’s most famous couple was doing in Massignac, it is a mystery. Every notable place in the region contacted swore to not having received their visit. The celebrity tabloids proclaim the two stars are at each other’s throats… while they spend some hours of happiness in Charente.

Me too. I would love to have been able to grow up the way the Jolie-Pitt children are, and I would love to be wealthy enough to travel the world the way they are and always experiencing new cultures, new people, new lodgings. They are all very fortunate indeed.
does anyone know here i could find those W mag pics from i can’t find them anymore in Sj’s gallery :(
Maybe they are getting married that place is big enough.It’s not like them to stay in such a big place.
Ken Baker from In touch, star mag, Lies & Style are all RACISTS. All you have to do is read what they said. They always talked bad about the foreign adopted kids.
jj thanks,cute beyound words
