Maddox’s Army-Style B-day Bash

Maddox’s Army-Style B-day Bash

Life & Style Weekly has the exclusive pictures from Brad Pitt’s birthday surprise for son Maddox.

It all started out on Friday when Angelina Jolie brought Maddox with her to work at LA Studios. This was a distraction so that Brad Pitt could ready the house for Mad’s 6th birthday bash. Here’s what the L&S insiders had to say:

On the parents doing the party planning: “Brad and Angelina were heavily involved in the preparations. They mapped out and set up everything themselves.”

On Braddox’s relationship: “Brad and Maddox have a unique father-son bond. Brad came into Maddox’s life at precisely the right time. He needed a strong male influence as a role model. And after all those years of wanting a child, Brad was bouncing off the walls with excitement.”

On the fun waterslide: “It was huge! Brad made sure the plastic was good and wet before anyone went down. He even inflated some rafts.”

On Brad readying the troops for Capture the Flag: “Brad really got into it,” says the insider. “He was decked out in military fatigues and a helmet. Even Angie and Zahara painted their faces!”

On the gifts Brad and Angie bought Maddox (dirt bike, a leather jacket and a helmet): “Mad wants to be a biker, just like his dad. He’s always going into Brad’s closet and strutting around in Brad’s hats!”

could I possibly be FIRST???

Once again it warms my heart to see Brad finally getting to live out his dreams of being a dad. A super one he has become right before our eyes. and its all thanks to Angie and the love they have found together. I am so happy for them both that they have found true hapiness with each other.

GO BAMPZS!

# 6

Am I First? Wow looks like they had a great day.

# 7

thank-you jared ,love the jolie-pitts.

# 8

Just look at Brads massive chest!

Damn it- the guy really is fit as hell.

And these two sure as hell will be one of those couples who will stay together- forever.

# 9

Hm….on another note…. Shilohs face will remain a secret it seems….

Awww…lucky Maddox! Happy belated birthday, yeay!!! Such cool parents, Brad’s so happy, it’s nice to see!!! :)

It is ashame that a magz that always writes negative things about this couple have the exclusive on Mad’s party. They must have paid a pretty penny for the rights. They probably sent the papz to the area to snap the photos. They do not deserve the right to these personal photos.
Angie and Brad are such great parents. Brad and Maddox have a special bond; Mad is really the glue that sealed the relationship between Angie and Brad. But there had to be more between the two of them for it to stay together as it has. I just feel that these two are soulmates and should be together. It is strange how events happen to bring two people together. It seems that they both had to grow and mature and wham! It happened. We are so lucky to have a couple like this, they are very different and a breathe of fresh air. I have never felt this way about any celebs before! It is just something special about them!!!

thank-you jared. @ 08/09/2007 at 8:50 am

Brad is such a good father,he proably is doing things, he did as a kid.bless this wonderful family.more power to this wonderful family.

L&S is totally ridiculous calling Brad’s brother and his nephews the security guards kids. LMAO. Idiots

I love how they were reporting last week of a break up and now they’ve flipflopped—tabloids are so predictable. I cant believe some losers believe everything thats written.

LanieCroft @ 08/09/2007 at 8:50 am

Just asking @ 08/09/2007 at 8:59 am

How much did Life and Style pay for the pics?

thank you famous!!!!!!!ur jareds right hand.morning all!

I sincerely hope L&S get sued for this (as well as the photo agency). This is invasion of privacy and this should have stayed a private family & friends moment.

the scans are not working @ 08/09/2007 at 9:01 am

the scans are so little!!

Of course they don’t have any insider. They just look at the pics and wrote the story they wanted.

Does anyone seen the interview of Brad to Charlie Rose in 2004? Chalie says something like that to Brad when Brad tells with that he gave up of “wanted to get the record straight”… Charlie Rose says something like: Why bother they will take te pics and wrtite whatever they want.

the hell? @ 08/09/2007 at 9:02 am

Jared is using the same small scans from Access Hollywood! WE WANT THE REAL SCANS!

I’m not surprised Life & Style bought the pictures; no magazine with any self-respect would buy them seeing how the pictures were obtained unethically. Which is why it’s hilarious that you’re even posting these pictures, Jared. Have some decency and some respect of the family’s privacy that was obviosuly violated.

WORK WITH JARED @ 08/09/2007 at 9:06 am

If anyone buys this issue, scan the pages and send them to Jared, so all we can read the article and see the pics bigger.

[b]Gun-toting Brangelina ban toy guns for their kids![/b]

The London News.Net
Wednesday 9th May, 2007 (ANI)

London, May 9 : Their romance started with an action packed flick, but Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have banned their kids from seeing them brandish guns on screen.

And the couple has also laid down a ‘no toy weapons’ rule in the house.

A set source said that Jolie and Pitt were doing this so that their kids - Maddox, Pax, Zahara and Shiloh - will not grow up thinking that weapons are cool.

“Angelina is protecting them from seeing her making violence look good,” The Sun quoted the source, as saying.

“Staff have been told the kids can’t even see props. And toy guns are a complete no-no,” the source revealed.

However, there are a few people who just can’t help being amused by the rule, for some of Jolie’s most famous roles are movies like ‘Lara Croft’ and ‘Mr and Mrs Smith’, that were filled with violence.

“It’s caused a few chuckles. Most of her successful roles have had her waving weapons and getting violent,” the source said.

I’m a hater and will spend my day annoying the hell out of you all

yep — those photos confirm it. that is clearly a dysfunctional family on the verge of breaking up. the children obviously are estranged from their parents; and it’s clear that the parents can barely tolerate one another’s presence…

fake news @ 08/09/2007 at 9:41 am

from fox news

Brangelina’s Kid Can Be Yours for Only $1.99

Brangelina Kid Price Tag: $1.99

Maddox Jolie-Pitt gets his first magazine cover this week courtesy of Life&Style Weekly. The Bauer publication, based in New Jersey, took pictures of Maddox’s sixth birthday party from a boat thanks to a telescopic lens and an intrusive international photo agency.

Even though Angelina Jolie has sold pictures of her kids in the past — to People, notably — and for lots of money, this time she was had at her own game. The pictures show Jolie and Brad Pitt cavorting with all their kids — Maddox, Zahara and Shiloh — mostly unaware that the festivities were being recorded for posterity.

The result is a front-cover full-page shot of Maddox, complete with the magazine’s round yellow price tag that reads in black: “1.99.”

It’s unclear who’s become more devalued: the magazines for conducting business formerly left to the National Enquirer and Star, or the parents for putting the dare into the air. Because that’s what it became the minute Jolie allowed her kids into the market.

“This is no different than Us’ [magazine] recent cover with Shiloh or anything with Suri Cruise,” one tabloid expert said.

Whether or not the Pitts can or would sue Bauer for invasion of privacy, the damage is certainly done. And it also shows that the rules have changed. Children used to be off limits. Then it became a game among paparazzi to get the first pictures of babies after they were born. Now all bets are off.

Because Jolie has let People and others have sanctioned, staged pictures of her kids, paparazzi now feel they have the right to snap away.

Michael Jackson almost looks a good parent at this point, making sure his kids’ faces are covered up all the time. I said almost.

Interestingly, the Maddox birthday pictures were originally being featured online Wednesday as a link to TV’s “Access Hollywood.”

“Everyone wanted them,” an insider told me. “All the shows did features.”

But I’m told the NBC syndicated celeb show backed off from actually airing them when they realized the legal brouhaha in the making. And by midday Wednesday, there was no mention of the shoot at either “Access” site or the ones belonging to either “Extra,” “ET’ or “The Insider.”

The reports of SLIPT ARE TRUE. After the Photo-op he is gone gone gone.

UN troops for Darfur authorize @ 08/09/2007 at 9:45 am

.UNITED NATIONS (Reuters) - The U.N. Security Council authorized on Tuesday up to 26,000 troops and police for Darfur and approved the use of force to protect civilians in Sudan’s arid western region.

Expected to cost more than $2 billion in the first year, the combined “hybrid” U.N.-African Union operation aims to quell violence in Darfur, where more than 2.1 million people have been driven into camps and an estimated 200,000 have died over the past four years.

U.N. Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon, who conducted months of talks with Khartoum, described the unanimously approved resolution as “historic and unprecedented” and said the mission would “make a clear and positive difference.”

The resolution, number 1769, invokes Chapter 7 of the U.N. Charter, under which the United Nations can authorize force. The measure allows the use of force for self-defense, to ensure the free movement of humanitarian workers and to protect civilians under attack, but acknowledges Sudan’s sovereignty.

The resolution, which has been watered down several times, no longer allows the new force to seize and dispose of illegal arms, saying it can only monitor such weapons.

Sudan’s U.N. ambassador, Abdalmahmood Abdalhaleem Mohamad, told reporters, “I am comfortable with the resolution.” He said the use of Chapter 7 was limited and that negotiators “went to great lengths to satisfy our concerns.”

The resolution authorizes up to 19,555 military personnel and 6,432 civilian police, which if deployed would be the world’s largest peacekeeping force.

U.S. SANCTIONS?

U.S. Ambassador Zalmay Khalilzad called on Sudan’s president, Omar Hassan al-Bashir, to provide “maximum cooperation” in deploying the peacekeepers or face sanctions.

“If Sudan does not comply with this resolution, the United States will move for the swift adoption of unilateral and multilateral measures,” Khalilzad told the council.

“Now Sudan faces a choice,” he said. “Sudan can choose the path of cooperation or defiance.”

Visiting British Prime Minister Gordon Brown made a similar sanctions threat in a speech earlier in the day.

The revised text, however, dropped a threat to impose further sanctions if Khartoum balked.

China’s U.N. ambassador, Wang Guangya, who chaired the meeting, said the purpose of the resolution was to launch the hybrid force “rather than threaten sanctions.”

The measure was negotiated by Britain and France and also sponsored by Italy, Belgium, Congo Republic, Slovakia and Peru.

Asked why Washington did not join the sponsors, Khalilzad said, “The important thing is that we voted for it and we support it.” Diplomats speculated the United States did not approve of some modifications in the draft.

Rape, looting, murder and government bombardment drove millions from their homes in Darfur, where mostly non-Arab rebels took up arms in early 2003, accusing Khartoum of neglecting their desert region. The rebels have now split into a dozen groups, many fighting one another.

Infantry soldiers will be drawn mainly from African nations unless not enough Africans can be recruited. Personnel from elsewhere in the world are expected to be used for specialized engineering and in command headquarters.

The resolution calls on member states to finalize their contributions to the new force, called UNAMID, the United Nations-African Union Mission in Darfur, within 30 days. UNAMID would incorporate the under-equipped and under-financed 7,000 African Union troops now in Darfur.

Sudan, after months of hesitation, has agreed to the troop numbers, but U.N. officials expect it will take a year to get the entire force in place. Khartoum also has to agree to allow units from individual countries into Sudan.

The new headquarters should be running by October 31, and U.N. members were urged to cover costs as soon as possible for the AU troops. The combined force is to be in charge of all operations by December 31.

Jane Holl Lute, an assistant secretary-general for peacekeeping, said the department would work “non stop” between now and the end of the year, to get accommodations, fuel and communication as well as General Assembly financial approval.

“It is an unprecedented undertaking, in scale, complexity and importance,” she told reporters.

Away with family on a mountain for a few days, very limited internet, but good to see not much has changed: Britney’s crazy knows no depths, Denise Richards is still a scheming greedy douche, with sperm hunter now added to her illustrious list of attributes, and the tabloids continue to erroneously proclaim the death of Pitt Porn.

Strangely reassuring.

Jen.A. must be such a bloody idiot to delay having kids with Brad! If I was married to this Adonis, i would have had a baby tout- suite! Brad has proven to the world what a devoted father he is to his brood of children. I can see why Angie loves him - men whom are devoted fathers are the sexiest in the world! If more men were devoted family men like Brad, the world wouldn’t be so screwed up- I hate deadbeat dads, who abandon their children & responsibilities! Brad comes from a good family, so therefore, he knows how to be a good dad. Bravo Brad!

Great pics and I can see that this couple is really into their children but, I thought Angelina wanted to keep her kids away from playing with anything that related to war in any way?? Capture the Flag was a game my special forces Uncle used to have us play at family gatherings.

I’m not claiming to be an insider. I just got the info from that Chicago blogger who’s been tracking Brad and Angelina’s moves. She said Brad was driven to the airport and apparently left town. If I were a troll claiming to be an insider, I’d get creatve and say things like Brad left with Jane to meet up with Jen. :p

If Brad is really in LA, what is so suprising to haterz, a good partner is to take of family, make sure everything is well arranged then take care of his business. That’s is a responsible caring man’s behavior.

so, he only stayed in chicago for the paparazzi`pics?

Jolie tells French mag “Brad must accept my mood swings”

The magazine reveals that the bizarre conversation offered candid revelations that all is not perfect in their relationship. When asked how Brad can keep her happy, Angelina replies that he must “accept my mood swings…know how to cope with a crisis and be a good father to my kids.”

***

The article notes that it is disturbing that she uses the word “my” when referring to their children. While Angelina adopted Maddox, 6, Pax, 3, and Zahara, 2, on her own, Brad has filed papers to adopt the kids and they all have the surname Jolie-Pitt. The couple also has a biological daughter, Shiloh, 14 months, but Angelina clearly doesn’t see Brad as an equal parent.

“Using that pronoun ‘my’ says it all,” relationship expert Dr. Gilda Carle, who does not treat the stars, tells In Touch. “It’s saying you really don’t have that much of a partnership, you don’t share the role of parent with me. I suspect, if this is where she’s heading, she’ll be heading out the door.” Angelina also admits some of her shortcomings in the Public interview, saying Brad is “cool, playful and organized — completely the opposite of me.”

Progress at last in Darfur

By Michael Gerson

WASHINGTON - After four years of brutal raids, ethnic cleansing and systematic rape in Darfur, Sudan - and nearly three years after the Bush administration declared this a genocide - the U.N. Security Council has finally approved a credible peacekeeping force. For 2 million displaced people in the camps, this is a wisp of hope on the horizon. For 200,000 of the dead, it comes too late.

The most disturbing part of the latest U.N. negotiations was the continued leverage exercised by the regime in Khartoum, which has a long history of mass killing. In the polished manners of the United Nations, blood on your hands is not a disqualification for a seat at the diplomatic table. With the expected help of China, and the disappointing support of France and Britain, the Sudanese envoy weakened the mandate of the peacekeeping force - no weapons are to be seized from the militias - and removed the threat of sanctions if Khartoum fails to cooperate. The regime protested that its “sovereignty” over the people of Darfur must be respected - which is really the sovereignty of lions over the herds they hunt.

But even this diluted resolution is useful. It authorizes what will be the largest peacekeeping operation in the world - upward of 25,000 soldiers and police under joint U.N. and African Union control. It sets specific dates for the transition to that force. And it mandates the protection of both aid workers and civilians.

Khartoum’s grudging acceptance of U.N. peacekeepers is the result of global pressure. For all its tactical confusions, Sarkozy’s France is tougher on the regime than was Chirac’s France. China can no longer be too obvious in its support of Khartoum, or it would risk the boycott of its Olympics next year. And a new round of American sanctions on Sudan has begun to bite, pressuring international banks to stop accepting Khartoum’s billions in oil money.

Is this momentum real? There are two benchmarks that will help answer this question, one way or the other.

In October, the United Nations must have its headquarters operational in Darfur, and take over financing African troops already on the ground.

By December at the latest, the U.N. will need to have in place what is called the “heavy support package” - hospitals, attack helicopters, 2,000 new African troops, and 3,000 police. It will also need to know which countries will contribute the rest of the troops to the peacekeeping force.

If the United Nations has met these realistic goals by New Year’s Eve, it will be a good beginning, a sign of seriousness. But the signals out of Khartoum are mixed. The United Nations has informed U.S. officials that it is already getting resistance from the regime on logistical issues. If the Sudanese continue to play these games, as they have done before, there will need to be penalties.

The United States has immediate responsibilities as well - to provide airlift support through NATO, training for command staff, communications and computer equipment, and generators. America is obligated to pay for 27 percent of the cost of the peacekeeping force, which will probably require a supplemental funding bill from Congress in 2008.

But the implementation of this resolution is, above all, a test for the United Nations. In dealing with Darfur, U.N. officials are determined to learn from their historical mistakes. The problem is choosing which mistake to learn from.

U.N. military planners want to avoid the debacle of Somalia which began in 1992, when peacekeepers entered a chaotic situation piecemeal and eventually left in defeat and failure. So in Darfur they want the U.N. intervention to be large and decisive - a “big bang” - even if that means the timeline is delayed.

Another U.N. failure is worth recalling and avoiding: Rwanda in 1994. While waiting for perfect circumstances to intervene, the world did little, and now lives haunted by a million ghosts.

No historical analogy is exact. But the Darfur genocide is closer to Rwanda than Somalia. It requires the urgent establishment of security first.

For all the Americans who have worked and prayed for Sudan over the years, for all the churches and synagogues with banners that call us to conscience, the time to push has arrived. There are many complex steps of negotiation and reconciliation between government and rebels down the road. But we should begin with one step: 5,000 new police and troops in Darfur by the end of this year

I absolutely love this beautiful family! :) They are so great with the kids!

NEW PICS!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! @ 08/09/2007 at 10:09 am

Brad at the Chicago airport. Caption reads: Brad Pitt leaves Chicago fulling reports that his relationship with angelina jolie is in trouble.

there is not video on splash

Brad Pitt says:

I had a turbulent life with Jen. Because of that, my career suffered. My movies flopped, then I did not work for some time.

After meeting Angie, I became a new man both intimately and artistically speaking. Now my movies are all artistically and commercially successful. Angie is truly my lucky charm.

Angie is truly a work of art. We are as much as in love as on the first day.

Angelina is a saint @ 08/09/2007 at 10:11 am

“Jennifer Lopez won a permanent injunction barring her ex-spouse, Ojani Noa, from disclosing intimate information about their relationship for personal gain.

Among the revelations purportedly made in the ghost-written book, according to media accounts, was that Lopez had multiple affairs during her brief marriage to Noa, including one with salsa-singer Marc Anthony, Lopez’s third and current husband, while he also was married to someone else.”

if i’m not mistaken, Anthony has little kid with ex spouse, and yet nobody calls JL a homewrecker;

Angelina is a saint compared to these hypocrites women in Hollywood

Brad has left Chicago. Apparently he boarded a private plane yesterday evening. Destination unknown.

LMAO so Brad left Chicago for LA, so that must mean he and Angie split, people please get a damn life. I am sure that Brad have business in LA and will be family in Chicago with his family. And I guess for now on anytime Brad or Angie leave each other for a little while, then they are splitting up or split. Some of you people are really sad and pathetic for real

Brad is currently running a warm bath for me right now

its not true ignore the haters, they are jealous.
angelina is beutiful rich and with a happy fanmily and other havent nothing……..

CHICAGO SUN-TIMES @ 08/09/2007 at 10:14 am

Check tomorrow’s Bill column at the Chicago sun-times for details of the huge fight that made Brad leave Chicago after one day.

no such video on splash and even if there’s one that dsnt prove anything except that brad had business to do somewhere else. if he did go, he’ll be back with his family soon enough.

Life & Style magazine has the scoop of the week. In their issue that hits newsstands on August 9, they showcase exclusive photos of the 6th birthday party of Maddox Pitt which took place over August 4-5 at dad Brad Pitt’s $4.5 million beachfront property just north of Santa Barbara, Ca. What’s so shocking about the photos? Aside from the “boys only” party featuring all of the kids wearing military fatigues and smeared camouflage make-up on their faces, there are photos of Angelina Jolie, 32, carrying Zahara, 2, with that same gear and make-up on her face. Why is the goodwill ambassador for the United Nations High Comissioner for Refugees “playng war” with her children? Jolie makes a big deal about visiting war-torn countries like Dafur, Sudan, Chad and Pakistan in her quest to learn more about the plight of refugees (many the children of war) and what can be done to help them not only survive but increase their quality of life. Her three adopted children come from countries that have seen their share of wars: Maddox is from Cambodia, Pax, 3, is from Vietnam, and Zahara from Ethiopia.

This hypocritical behavior is nothing new from Jolie, who set out rules for the media during her press blitz for her last movie A Mighty Heart, the story of slain investigative journalist Daniel Pearl. The idea of what Pearl died for was the journalistic freedom of speech, the right of the public to know what is really going on without censorship; yet there she was trying to squelch the press. God forbid someone ask something about her relationship with Brad that she hadn’t already told Ann Curry, Anderson Cooper, Reader’s Digest, TV Guide or Vanity Fair. So, when you pick up your issue of Life & Style this week, study the photos and ask yourself, does this seem like a children’s birthday party theme that is fitting to all that Jolie preaches?
____________________________________________________________________

A classic symptom of borderline personality disorder is applying standards of behavior to other people that you don’t apply to yourself.
War is bad, but it’s okay for MY kids to playact it. Sleeping with a married man is wrong, but in my case, he wasn’t REALLY married. Censorship is wrong, but not if I’m being written about. Shady adoptions are wrong, but I have to do it because my past is “misunderstood”.

Yeah, Katie Holmes came back to the States while Tom is still in Germany, I guess that means they split too. Oh wait no cuz they arent Brad and Angelina, its only when these two are apart for a second that they are splitting up. Ridiculous

Brad is such a wonderful family man. Why would anyone refuse to have a baby with Brad? I guess anybody who will deny him a kid is not using her brains … err, I guess she has no brains to begin with.

compatibility is perfect @ 08/09/2007 at 10:19 am

Angelina Jolie….. Gemini
Brad Pitt…… Sagittarius

Both of you are curious individuals, rather restless and on-the-go. You can expect your lives together to be very active, with lots of changes, probably frequent moves, adjustments, surprises, and new challenges. These changes will bring lots of ups and downs, but overall both of you will be greatly enriched by these diverse activities and interests.

Sagittarius is more philosophical and had grander plans than Gemini, who takes each step as it comes and finds more pleasure in the little things in life. Sagittarius enjoys being on a crusade or mission for some philosophical reason or for personal gain, while Gemini finds Sagittarius’s dreams and schemes entertaining and interesting. You often see things from a different perspective, but usually you can benefit from each other’s viewpoint and you are adaptable and flexible enough to listen to each other and benefit from each other.

Personal freedom is important to both of you and you are likely to find it in this relationship. Even if you are always together you do not cling to, or smother, each other. On the whole you are very compatible.

You have a great rapport, and your emotional needs coincide very well. Personal freedom and mobility mean a lot to both of you, and neither of you wants to possess or be possessed totally. You share an unending curiosity and mental restlessness, a love of books and movies and ideas, an urge to travel, to meet different kinds of people, and to discover new things.

You are both playful and humorous, though Sagittarius is more philosophical, idealistic, and optimistic than Gemini. Gemini’s humour can be rather black at times. Both of you are also rather intellectual and need an intelligent, communicative partner. You are very companionable together and are likely to enjoy a very satisfying friendship in addition to whatever romantic attachment you have.

Wit, intelligence, and an active mind are attributes the two of you share, and in your relationship there will be a focus on communicating, bantering, a lot f verbal give and take.
Intellectual interests and/or hobbies are apt to play a significant role in your relationship.

You will experience the heights and depths, love and hate, attraction and repulsion, agony and ecstasy in this relationship.
A powerful, compelling fascination and irresistible sexual attraction draws the two of you together like magnets. You love each other with a depth of feeling that is surprising even to yourselves. The powerful charismatic power that you have over each other can be used to manipulate one another, and dominance, control, or jealousy easily becomes hot issues between you. Whether this is a brief passionate encounter or a lifelong attachment, you will change one another profoundly.

Although sexual magnetism between you is very intense, you both may be somewhat uncomfortable by the overwhelming feelings or obsessive quality that you engender in one another. Even if you are repulsed or disinclined to become close to one another, there seems to be an irresistible attraction bringing you together. Power struggles, emotional or sexual manipulation, and disruptive jealousy may be problems you encounter in this relationship. Whatever develops, this relationship will touch your depths and change you profoundly.

You both have the talent for being farsighted about new directions and experimentation with love making, oral sex may appeal to you, or you may with to make love impulsively at the office, in the car, or anywhere that is convenient. Both of you wish to lead the relationship, which can at times be confusing.

The romantic love and sexual attraction for each other is very compelling and deep. You wield a powerful, charismatic influence on each other and your love affair is a powerful one. This could be one of the most fulfilling, all-consuming relationships of your life!

Enormous benefits, expansion, success, and growth come to both of you through the vehicle of your relationship. You’ll be blessed with unusual good fortune and fulfilment, both materially and in less tangible ways. Most of all, you will feel that you have plenty when you are together. Instead of seeing limitations, you’ll be able to see possibilities for an expanded life, opportunities that you may have missed before. Religion, philosophy, or higher education may become a focus in your relationship, even if neither of you is especially inclined that way.

You increase one another’s optimism and broaden one another’s viewpoints, opening up much more of the world to one another. Long distance travel or making connections to other parts of the world can be a part of this.

Essentially, your relationship is about increasing growth, freedom, and expansion in your lives. Much success and fulfilment are generated when you are together.

PLEASE FEED MY NEEDS OF ATTENTION.

Angelina Jolie spent her first day of filming “Wanted” yesterday afternoon in Chi-Town’s Chinatown.

Jolie arrived to the set early in the morning and stayed till mid-afternoon filming a driving scene in a black Audi SUV.

Jolie retreated to her trailers midday for lunch where her children were waiting to see their mom. No word on where Brad Pitt was at this time.

Jolie returned back to her downtown hotel mid-afternoon, but not before saying goodbye to the crew. BTW: The crew loves Angie! They all insist she couldn’t be nicer. Jolie’s stunt-double continued to film the car scenes till early evening.

Around 7 p.m., a driver pulled one of Brangelina’s SUVs, with a bodyguard in shotgun, into the hotel’s private garage where security escorted Pitt into the vehicle and drove straight to a private jet at Midway airport.

The Boots Girls did not see Pitt walk onto the jet, but sources told us Pitt left town for the evening.

His destination is unknown for now.

Jolie is scheduled to continue filming all day today.

Not Impressed @ 08/09/2007 at 10:22 am

I don’t see why everyone keeps praising this couple. Angie has made it obvious that she cannot stick with just one person. I truly believe that she went after him because she wanted a father for her kids. Everyone who praises them fails to mention that she’s nothing but a homewrecker and he’s a cheating SOB. I have lost ALL respect for these two… how do they expect to keep this wonderful sanctity of family when she’s been divorced twice already and Brad cheated on Jennifer?? Neither one of them know what it really means to be a family! If they had any clue in their heads, they both would have waited to see each other until his divorce was finalized.

I also just love how Angie is just SOOOOO defensive of the adopted kids that she treats Shiloh like an outcast. She’s rarely in public, and when she is, she always looks like she’s been crying. Even in the “privacy” of their own home, Shiloh is in only ONE of those pictures.. not good enough to be with the rest of the family. Angie toted Maddox and Zahara around when they were just babies, why doesn’t she do the same for Shiloh??

Don’t respond to haterz who want attention.

BRAD WAS ONLY IN CHICAGO FOR T @ 08/09/2007 at 10:26 am

I understand that some of you might be new to Brad and Angelina threads on JJ, but dam* some of you are so dense. The trolls come in every time with their stupid rumors just to disrupt the conversation flow and just like clock work some of you fall for their cr*p.

The fans on these threads are known for their discerning minds but some of you can’t even see when these trolls are being facetious. If and when Brad and Angelina break up, it will be announced just like it was announced when Brad X broke up or when Angelina and BBT broke.

Ignore the trolls and they slither away like the snakes they are but some of you just cannot help your selves.

Chicago lurker @ 08/09/2007 at 10:28 am

The kids went to visit angelina on set. They were on her trailer, after she was done she went back to the hotel with her kids.

Brad was never on the set, he left the hotel before angelina arrived. He’s out of Chicago.

I’m sure this will make news tomorrow because a lot of people are following their moves.

is there a film festival this month in canada?

is there a film festival this month in canada?

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

Nope all festivals are between the last week of this month and the first week of september. He left Chicago without spending any minute of the whole he was here with angelina because he can’t stand her.

Ummm if Brad had some business to attend to somewhere other than chicago, they broke up? What kind of fukced up logic is that.

I am a HUGE fan of the Pitts but I have to admit most of their fans are complete IDIOTS. You all will spend at least the next 3 pages asking for links from INSIDERS whose only purpose is to come here and stir up bullshit. You’ll then spend the next 4 pages coming up with the most stupid justifications as to why Brad may have left Chicago, and then come up with a list of all the other celebrity couples who don’t spend every waking minute together. Don’t you get it by coming up with your lists and reasons you actually play into the hands of the haters? YOU ALL MUST ENJOY BEING PLAYED. THERE IS NO OTHER REASON FOR WHY YOU CHOOSE TO RESPOND DAY AFTER DAY TO THE SAME BULLSHIT. SO I SAY HATERS MAKE THESE MONKEYS DANCE. WE REAL FANS WILL **** BACK AND WATCH THE SHOW.

Too beautiful to be understood
May 06, 2006 Edition 1

Chrissy Iley

The first time I saw Angelina Jolie she was shimmering in the moonlight of the garden of Hollywood’s excluside Chateau Marmont hotel.

She was wearing jeans and a silky top, but radiated an unnerving sexiness. Her eyes locked into conversation with whoever intrigued her. It was as if they were the only person in the world, which was either charming or shy, depending on which way you looked at her.

Men stared in slack-jawed lust, a little afraid of her. Women stared at the ground or at each other in a mumbling, pouting sort of way.

This was long before there was Angelina and Brad. It was even before Billy Bob.

It seems that Angelina - striking, sexy, strong - is built in a way that women do not warm to. They see her as Alpha Vamp, too gothic to be a real mother.

Well, not any more - she’s having twins. There was never a love cauldron that raised more heat than the Brad/Jennifer/Angelina pot.

Female columnists around the world declared, “Angelina has a mouth designed for hoovering up husbands”.

Slogan T-shirts went on sale last year. Team Aniston outsold Team Jolie 25-1 because women identified with Jennifer’s pain. She was the victim.

She’d been dumped, like every one of them. Angelina is a different kind of woman. Just because she does not wear her pain on her sleeve and play the victim card, it does not mean she’s not vulnerable.

Actually, she does wear her pain on her arm. She has a tattoo, in Latin, that says “What Nourishes Me Also Destroys Me”. She’s a complex individual who has led a complicated life.

She says, “I think it’s more important to be understood than to be loved”.

Maybe that’s the same thing. What nobody seems to understand in this triangle is Brad left Jennifer. Angelina didn’t beg him or cajole him, manipulate or hoover him.

It’s shameful to perpetuate a myth of misogyny that says she was the one lacking in empathy or morals, especially when she states, “To be intimate with a married man when my own father cheated on my mother is not something that I could forgive. I couldn’t look at myself in the morning if I did that. It’s not nice to be breaking up a marriage.”

She was working on a mission in Niger when news reached the world that Jennifer and Brad had finally separated. Interesting the way that chauvinistic prejudice works. Brad was married. Angelina was single. It was Brad’s decision to end his marriage. This is all the evidence we have for sure, and surely it’s unfair for Angelina to carry all the blame.

Why, as women, do we identify with the victim? Angelina is not like other women. This makes her idiosyncratic, powerful, mesmerising. It should not make us hate her. She’s emotionally articulate. She’s lived, she’s learnt, she’s suffered, she’s smart.

She won an Oscar for her role in Girl Interrupted, set in a mental institution, and a Golden Globe for Gia, as the heroin-addicted bisexual model.

She kicked ass with last year’s blockbuster Mr and Mrs Smith, in which she literally tried to blow up her onscreen husband, Pitt.

She also fell for her husband Billy Bob Thornton on the set of Pushing Tin, but, hey, it’s not so unusual to meet your partner at work.

Her body is beautifully sculpted and she’s a true artist. She doesn’t care about the red carpet or handbags. Note, she’s always seen with the same one, a big old thing stuffed with baby paraphernalia. She does not believe in nannies.

“I am not going to be a mother who uses a nanny to do all the hard work while I have fun. That’s not my ethic.”

She works tirelessly, hands on and feet in the mud for the United Nations, and is its greatest ambassador since Audrey Hepburn.

She adopted Maddox in 2001 from Cambodia, while she was researching the part of an Aid worker for Beyond Borders. She adopted Zahara from Ethiopia last year.

The UN High Commissioner for Refugees later appointed her Goodwill Ambassador. There is only one. She is not tokenistic in any way. Not a movie star on a vanity project.

She doesn’t do it to give her life more meaning. She does it to save people’s lives.

Aid workers who worked with her tell how she’s not afraid to ride for two days on a motorbike in the mud without showering. She sees herself as just one extra pair of hands able to dig. She makes $12 million to $20 million (R72 million to R120 million) a movie and gives a third away to charity.

She says, “If I have three million, I know one of them I can live without.”

She doesn’t just turn up and smile. She lobbies Congress to get aid, to get Bills passed, to change the world. In her role as Goodwill Ambassador she has visited more than 15 countries, including Kenya, Ethiopia, Pakistan, Haiti, Kosovo and Sierra Leone. In Pakistan, it was after the earthquake. Brad was with her. She has effected a transformation in him too.

“I put my head together, cover my tattoos, get into my suits, look clean, don’t dress sexy and try to present the woman that I’m not sure I am, but would like to aspire to be a little more. Everyone is always expecting me to be, or it’s been easier, to be the other girl.”

That other girl was from the dark side. The one who admitted to experimenting with drugs, knives and other women. She spoke about them all with searing honesty in a hope to explain herself, alienated her further from the world.

Her father was Jon Voight, the enigmatic actor who starred in Midnight Cowboy. Her mother is actress Marcheline Bertrand. They separated when she was one.

“I was always the punk in school. I didn’t feel clean or pretty. I felt interesting, odd or dark. I could understand the darker things, the moody things, the more emotional things.”

She grew up relating more to pain than happiness. She married actor Jonny Lee Miller when she was in her early 20s wearing black rubber trousers and a white shirt on which she had scrawled his name in blood. They split, but she is still close to him, saying that she was just too young.

“I wanted more from him than I could give him.”

This was the other girl who was hard on herself, who thought she had nothing to give - and now she’s giving so much.

She never thought she would be a mother. She was never the kind of child who was asked to babysit. In fact, when she needed to cry in movies, all she would do was extend her hand and imagine a child taking hold of it. Then the tears would come.

“I was always sure that I would never know that feeling.”

That feeling came when she first picked up baby Maddox at the orphanage in Cambodia. He was the last baby she visited that day. She held him and held him and when he opened his eyes there was a connection that made her whole life change.

With those eyes locked she fitted in a way that she never thought she could. No more slashing herself with knives “just to be able to feel something”.

Now holding Maddox was as profound.

“I held him for the longest time. When he finally woke up and stared at me we stared at each other and I was crying and he smiled.

“My discomfort with children was because I always assumed

I could never make them happy because I was accused of being dark. I wasn’t sure if I could be a great, loving, perfect mom, but

I wanted to be, so bad. He smiled and we hung for a few hours and I could make him happy and we felt like a family.”

Feeling like a happy family was something she had never had and, subsequently, jealously guarded.

She didn’t suddenly fall out of love with Billy Bob Thornton, to whom she was married at the time. Suddenly Maddox was her prime and primal concern. She didn’t think Billy Bob would be a great father to Maddox. “He wasn’t ready.”

This may seem, to the uninitiated, ruthless, but it was also strong and protective. She had changed dramatically. Maddox consumed her world. She didn’t want to be that person who carried a pendant of Billy Bob’s dried blood around her neck. She was more interested in flesh and blood.

She was out of the darkness because of Maddox and was determined he would never know its shadow. Her relationship with her own father had been at times close - and at times destructive. He disapproved of her adopting Maddox. She made the decision to keep him out of her life also, to protect Maddox.

“If you have people who put knots in your stomach, it makes you feel bad about yourself. You cry and then you get them out of your life. Be strong and focus your love elsewhere.

“I had some beautiful times with my father and I don’t think he’s a bad person. I just think we’re not a good family - there’s far too much pain.

“I never wanted to come home and yell at Mad because I was stressed after a bad lunch with my father.

“I am a good mother and a good friend. I am a good adoptive mother because I don’t see blood as family. I see it as time and love. You earn it.”

Although this may seem unorthodox, it doesn’t mean it doesn’t have a logic that is both profound and true. One must take into consideration that her childhood was painful.

Children from troubled upbringings usually only revisit that trouble in their own families, or decide that that will be too painful an experience and therefore never want children of their own.

Angelina had been adamant that she only wanted to adopt children, both because of this past and because “giving birth to one meant I could give one less child a home”.

In fact, there was nothing of the ensnaring. She made it clear to him and to the world, if it cared to listen, that she is pretty independent and doesn’t need a man, and at least the kind of man she wanted would be hard to find.

“I just naturally don’t rely on men. That’s part of my problem with relationships. I have to be watchful not to allow myself to be too indepen

Brad and Angelina are done. He went to chicago and let know splash the time the plane will arrive so they could get the pics.

Angelina was on set since early morning until 6pm. The kids went to the set around 12pm. Brad was never there, he stayed in the hotel until 6:30pm before angelina arrived at the hotel, and left to the airport.

They are playing “pretending” just like he did with Aniston. Brad is hella good at this game.

Wow,

The haters are hitting hard today; too bad they told lies about things that are verifiable.

Those poor bloggers who are willing to take any info that’s available; your ‘insiders’ don’t give a d@mn about your credibility or your livelihood. Next time, be more careful.

BRAD IS NOT IN CHICAGO ANYMORE : 08/09/2007 at 10:22 am
Angelina Jolie spent her first day of filming “Wanted” yesterday afternoon in Chi-Town’s Chinatown.

Jolie arrived to the set early in the morning and stayed till mid-afternoon filming a driving scene in a black Audi SUV.

Jolie retreated to her trailers midday for lunch where her children were waiting to see their mom. No word on where Brad Pitt was at this time.

Jolie returned back to her downtown hotel mid-afternoon, but not before saying goodbye to the crew. BTW: The crew loves Angie! They all insist she couldn’t be nicer. Jolie’s stunt-double continued to film the car scenes till early evening.

Around 7 p.m., a driver pulled one of Brangelina’s SUVs, with a bodyguard in shotgun, into the hotel’s private garage where security escorted Pitt into the vehicle and drove straight to a private jet at Midway airport.

The Boots Girls did not see Pitt walk onto the jet, but sources told us Pitt left town for the evening.

His destination is unknown for now.

Jolie is scheduled to continue filming all day today

Brad is back in L.A he’s looking to buy a new house. Maybe the break up rumors are true?

It seems that there has been a lot of speculation about this Chicago trip; because even before Brad and Angelina arrive to Chicago; they were a lot of FALSE rumors about them; especially Angelina!! So i’m NOT surprise that this rumors continue, but what amazes me is that how many people want this family to split!! Yes, this is SICK; especially because they are 4 innocent little children involve!!

And even if Brad left; this means NOTHING!! because remember Brad ALSO has work commitments; especially now that he is almost start to film the movie “Burn After Reading” with George Clooney!! So maybe Brad left to New York city; where the movie is going to be film!! So nobody really knows anything about this couple; so they invent all sort of things about them!!

Also, Katie Holmes return to L.A. without Tom Cruise and Suri… So WHY is nobody saying that they SPLIT?????

gleefully waiting for the pictures to pop up of papa pitt in chicago today. what will they say then? lmao

Brad and Angelina are done. He went to chicago and let know splash the time the plane will arrive so they could get the pics.

Angelina was on set since early morning until 6pm. The kids went to the set around 12pm. Brad was never there, he stayed in the hotel until 6:30pm before angelina arrived at the hotel, and left to the airport.

They are playing “pretending” just like he did with Aniston. Brad is hella good at this game.

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

Brad loves playing with the press.

LMAO, Just can’t understand the poor HATERS, torturing themselves now over 2 long years, hoping for Jolie-Pitt breakup, only to be DEFEATED over, and over and over again. I suspect haters are masochists :) They love it! LOL! Don’t worry, you have YEARS to come torturing yourselves–enjoy you DAILY FAILURE :)

OHH! PLEASE @ 08/09/2007 at 10:38 am

So lets see if i got this, brad pitt is not allowed to leave angelina’s side or this will be definative conclusive evidence of a split?, even if he has to work, he shall not leave her side, get a grip and call me when he spends 6 months away from her, like he did with she-who-shall-not-be-named.

I could care less fro Brad. I’m happy that the crew loves angie :)

Not impressed

Shiloh is in more of the pics but life and style as usual chose to leave them out. Angelina did not go after brad you only have to look at the timeline and the pics and the interviews from around that time. As a fan i know that mr and mrs smith wrapped months before pitt and maniston announced their split in jan 05 then in march they had to do reshoots and that is when i believe thay saw each other again and by that time pitt was already seperated. If jolie was the reason the marriage ended and why aniston filed for divorce then why was she so shocked to see him with her in the kenya pics if angie was the reason why it ended. Aniston said herself in the VF interview that she flat out denies that she was left for another woman and that what really hurt her was that pitt had moved on with someone else so quickly and all that goes to show is that pitt was unhappy in his marriage that he can move on so quick.

What is this? We already discussed this topic ad nauseaum we’ve all seen the pics now Life & Style gets a thread? The fans did very well on the past thread describing who was who. We don’t need any insider or any source to say anything because they are made up anyway. All those quotes are just common sense. Of course Brad & Maddox bond. Any idiot can see that. Brad’s been in Maddox’s life since Mad was 3 years old. Of course the parents “got into it”. What else would they do?

I could care less fro Brad. I’m happy that the crew loves angie

oh no, angie is going to leave Brad for the crew?

Brad plans his business meetings. If he’s back in L.A today why he went all the way to chicago? Finish business first and then go to chicago, or maybe they really got into a fight.

Brad is a great dad. He always make sure that his family is safe and sound.

Good luck Brad and more power to the Jolie-Pitts.

Dear Dumb Haters….

The break-up rumors would sound more convicing of you guys will NOT post the SAME information over and over and over and over and over AGAIN!! Yeah, posting that many times is PATHETIC!! i mean, What?? are you trying to convince yourself that this story is true and that is why you keep posting it sooooooooo many times??

SO GET A LIFE, instead of posting the same information so many times!!

++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Of course he cares about the press lol always has. This was planned. The whole purpose of going to chicago was to get pics, that’s why when he left last night he sneak out, so no one would notice.

Can somebody post the quote from Angie regarding their (Brad and Angie) leap of FAITH?

AJ pictures on set look great. Love the jacket and I actullay like the pants. She looks really happy, good for her as far to many people in this world especially on this board seem to be happy. They seem like a fun family who really enjoy each others company. I wish Brad and Angie well.

I dont understand it.
They dont like paps but they invite tre press to Maddox birthday???????

I do think Brad’s bit at fault if people are having doubts about his actions because of the way he handled the last year of his relationship with Aniston. He did pander to the media as though things were alright in his marriage and that last trip and sudden announcement of split was tricky. It’s just you never know with him. I can see why some people would compare him showing up for a day in Chicago to the way he showed up in London and left so quickly (yes, I know he had to be there for O12 promotion but it was weird the way he left on his own instead of with Aniston).

Why is Maddox on the cover of that rag? Resorting to putting children who are not celebrities on the cover instead of a choice of thousands of adult celebs? Not cute even if it is Maddox. The days are numbered on that rag anyway. This time next year that magazine will be out of business. Children should be on the cover of Child, Parenting or Baby magazine.

Can’t wait for Brad to start hitting the festival circuit. I know three people going to the Toronto Film Festival. That’s bigger than the Oscars and maybe even Cannes. Excitement all around, Venice, Deauville, New York…..It’s gonna be chaos. I wonder if Cliniqua is going? The lady who runs the Brangelinafans blog is going again this year. She seems to have an in with the Toronto Festival. There will be a big charity bash again this year. Everyone will be there. This is the calm before the storm. Fun, fun, fun. I’ll never forget the images from last years Toronto Festival with Brad walking the red carpet. Unreal!

Jolie returned back to her downtown hotel mid-afternoon, but not before saying goodbye to the crew. BTW: The crew loves Angie! They all insist she couldn’t be nicer.

Angie has always been loved and admired by all the people she works with. Everyone has only good words for Angie.

Brad is indeed a very lucky man.

Sucks that they found out he left, now he will have to get back tomorrow and I’m sure will get pics of him at the airport. Zen master is back to work.

so, he only stayed in chicago for the paparazzi`pics?

**********************
Or he stayed to help his family get settled before flying out to finish some business. Contrary to what you think, the man has a business to run, he’s allowed to leave for that you know?

Silly Goose.

I really wish some people will verify things before going with it. I see no link to the splash video showing BP leaving chicago. Just because someone says there’s a video on splash that not mean there really is a video on splash.

Damn what kind of men do you fanistons have for fathers and/or husbands. His first job is to make sure his family is settled and safe than everything else comes second.

I think I’m getting a clearer view of why you fanistions hate so much and I’m really starting to feel sorry for you.

They did NOT invite the press you idiot. Life & Style bought paparazzi pictures and then made it their cover story to act like they were there. Complete with quotes from phantom sources and iniders. This blog had pictures way before Life & Style even knew about this pics. If they wanted real insiders they would have asked the regulars on JJ.

They tiped splash to take the arrival pics, after that he left. He was more careful last night because if the press finds out (like they did) his move will backfire.

He did the same thing when his marriage with Aniston was falling apart, why would I should believe him now?

How reliable is that blog that claims they know what the Jolie Pitts were up to yesterday. I have never heard of them before. Their so called facts may be wrong.

If Brad did have to leave , I think it says a lot that Brad came to help his family( Angelina included) get settled in before taking care of business. Family comes first with the Jolie-Pitts as it should.

OHH! PLEASE @ 08/09/2007 at 10:59 am

LMFAO, I’m 100% convinced that some of you are insane.

I am 200% convinced that some of these people are insane. 7 pages into this blog and there are more hater post than anything else but they are not interesting and they wish they would just go away, yeah right. Every morning it is the same thing lies and people trying to manipulate and start trouble, then by the afternoon it all tapers off in time for the dinner loonies to arrive. Then it tapers off again until the 2:00 am loonies arrive. Like I said 200% convinced that the haters are insane.

Brad plays with the press and he cares about his image and his movies. Why do you think he spends so much money in a publicist, an agent, a lawyer and a manager? He’s not dumb.

He alredy played a lot of his fans when he divorced Aniston, he’s doing the same now.

Brad marriage was over in 2004 (for him at least) but he waited and waited because he was worried about Troy.

Photo ops! Call the razzies! Gotta make em all think we ain’t just doing it for the kids. They would be more successful apart.
Ang needs to just gain weight and be insane again. Brad needs some dating downtime. Seriously, has the man EVER been alone. SOOO NEEDY.

Two questions, why is Pax still in Pampers?
Why don’t they let the kids have friends outside of staffers kids?
I count 3 kids there.

And don’t rag on me, I didn’t rag on you.

WHY ARE PEOPLE ALWAYS WAITING FOR THESE, TWO TO BREAK-UP,MY GOSH GET OVER IT. HE LOVES ANGIE. HE’S NOT GOING TO LEAVE HER AND KIDS.GET OVER IT,HE’S NOT GOING BACK TO EX,WHAT FOR ,TO SIT, SMOKE,SHEW FLIES,AND SIT WITH EX ALL SHE CAN DO IS TALK ABOUT HERSELF, EX MIGHT OF HAD HIM WHEN HE WAS YOUNG,BUT WHO WILL SHE HAVE WHEN SHE’S OLD,MAYBE ANOTHER DOG,OR ANOTHER ONE NIGHTER,MAYBE PAUL THEY DESERVE EACH OTHER,SHE A COLD PERSON.TIME WILL TELL.HUH?

He did the same thing when his marriage with Aniston was falling apart, why would I should believe him now?

—————-
That is very easy to answer. Aniston is ugly, mean, denied him kids and ready to be dumped. Angelina is beautiful, kind, the mother of his kids and for keeps.

where are the link of the pics??????
because all the haters all speaking about and i don´t see anything, WHERE HATERS???

What you don’t get is that most people are actually not haters and are fairly neutral or don’t care about these two. They find this cult-like following disturbing and amusing at the same time though.

Just ignore the trolls….

I love how the magazines report that they actually do things themselves . Sad when these days we expect and see celebrities doing absolutely nothing that we should consider this news.

All this crap because there may or may not be pics of brad leaving chicago. If he did what’s the big friggin deal. In the haters minds that means he’s abandoned angie and his 4 kids for good. Did his mom sneak out with him also or our we waiting for the idiot stories with her too. I saw the pics of angie on set yesterday either way she looked very happy so it doesn’t seem to be bothering her.

Ok, let’s say you are 10% right. Why would angelina play his game when right now she has nothing to lose? her promo for her movie it’s over and nothing to promote until November.

Angelina doesn’t seem like a woman who would play for the press and after look like a moron.

142 WTF : 08/09/2007 at 10:30 am

I am a HUGE fan of the Pitts but I have to admit most of their fans are complete IDIOTS. You all will spend at least the next 3 pages asking for links from INSIDERS whose only purpose is to come here and stir up bullshit. You’ll then spend the next 4 pages coming up with the most stupid justifications as to why Brad may have left Chicago, and then come up with a list of all the other celebrity couples who don’t spend every waking minute together. Don’t you get it by coming up with your lists and reasons you actually play into the hands of the haters? YOU ALL MUST ENJOY BEING PLAYED. THERE IS NO OTHER REASON FOR WHY YOU CHOOSE TO RESPOND DAY AFTER DAY TO THE SAME BULLSHIT. SO I SAY HATERS MAKE THESE MONKEYS DANCE. WE REAL FANS WILL **** BACK AND WATCH THE SHOW.

The Observer @ 08/09/2007 at 11:17 am

Yeah brad was seen jetting off to space with the Astronants yesterday!!!!

Great where else was he spotted?? I remember the aliens might have captured him last night right before dinner..

Ohh I forgot he went was seen rowing around the Bermuda triangle!!!

Am sure there are many more sightings please refresh my memory “Brad Letf chicago Yesterday” ,,,,,,,,

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

Zenith,
While I do agree that Shiloh is a beautiful baby (I don’t dislike the baby, it’s her parent’s choices I don’t really agree with, IMO).. but that doesn’t look like a kiss to me. Being the second oldest to 4 brothers and 3 sisters (not to mention 6 neices and 2 nephews), that is not what a baby’s face looks like when they kiss someone. If you look closely, her top lip is squished down and her eyes are closed, and her face looks like she is bracing herself for “impact”. I don’t know any babies who kiss with their eyes closed and their faces squished like that.

I’m not a diehard Aniston fan, I just think that Brad and Angie made some poor choices from the start. Ever since she became famous, all I have ever heard is how she just jumps around from man to man (and even women) and is never satisfied with just one person. Why is Brad all of a sudden going to change that? I have a really hard time believing that they have been “so in love” from the moment that they met.. in love enough to PLAN a child together after just 2 months of dating. With her track record, I find it highly unlikely that she would commit herself to one person forever and have a biological child when she always said she didn’t want one. It’s very odd to me, and I must say, if they split today, I wouldn’t be upset at all.

205 Question for Jesse James cares

STOP ASKING QUESTIONS TO YOURSELF. No one will a brain cares about your opinion

all these new concerned posters (who regulars have never seen here before) all come at exactly the same time and keep saying the exactly same thing . Just one, who has a name change problem.

My husband leaves for a few days on business trip. If Brad is in LA, I’m happy. He has to take care of his production company. Remember, they were in Prague, then in France. You cant leave LA for too long if Hollywood is in LA.

That shows he is a RESPONSIBLE person. First, settle all her family members and then attend to his business.

It doesnt matter what haters say. All people who works in hollywood understand. It’s not that haters dont understand, it’s because haters have a BLACK SOUL, and they like to twist things to feel good.

HATERS THE PICS PLEASE?????

I can’t wait for the festivals to start to. I may be going to the Toronto Film festival. Venice starts August 29th, Deauville August 31st and Toronto September 6.

You wanna see how the press does not do their homework? Check out this link about a has been actress talking about Brad to get publicity. Check out the picture:

Thursday August 9, 09:02 AM
Brad’s ex finds his media attention ‘bizarre’
By Splash

Robin Givens says she “cracks up” with laughter when she sees ex-boyfriend Brad Pitt plastered across the pages of celebrity magazines.
The actress - who dated Pitt at the end of the 1980s - says she doesn’t understand why he is so popular.

And she said she finds the attention lavished on the Ocean’s 13 actor bizarre - because she didn’t think he was that interesting.

She said: “I mean, Brad Pitt was hot but I don’t know if I find him to be so fascinating, to be perfectly honest.

‘I see him differently than everyone else.

“Whenever I see him in the magazines with Anglina Jolie I just crack up. I think it’s hysterical!”

Givens, 42, was married to boxer Mike Tyson before she met Pitt in 1989.

At the time Pitt, now 43, was a struggling actor trying to make it in Hollywood, appearing in low-budget movies and taking bit parts in TV shows.

Boomerang star Givens told a US magazine: “I can remember walking down the street with him in New York and everyone going, ‘Come on, Robin, don’t give up on the brothers yet!’”

http://nz.entertainment.yahoo.com/070808/6/15r4.html

the whole truth @ 08/09/2007 at 11:21 am

LET’S SEE. Examples below given for examination and reflection:

Brad left Paris, went to NYC, returned to Paris.

Brad left Paris, went to DR, returned to Paris.

Brad left Prague, went to Montreal, filmed BB, went back to Prague.

Brad left Prague, went to Berlin, returned to Prague.

Brad left India, went to LA, went back to India.

Brad left NOLA, went to LA, then back to NOLA.

Brad left LA, went to NOLA, returned to LA.

Brad left LA, went to Toronto, returned to LA.

Angelina left NOLA, went to Chad, went back to NOLA.

Angelina left LA, went to DC and NYC, then returned to LA.

Angelina left LA, went to Vietnam, then returned to LA.

IF Brad has left Chicago, he got the family settled like he always does, made sure everything was as it should be, then left to take care of business, then he will return to his family..

Double Standard at work

Posh is always leaving family and traveling somewhere alone.

Katie Holmes left family in Berlin, travels to LA.

Jen Garner left Ben in LA travels alone to NYC.

Where is the doubt about their relationships? None. Because they are not Brad and Angelina whose every move is to be documented and analyzed in minute detail by those with only negative intentions.

Be assured, if this family ever breaks apart, they will let everyone know. This is the present, not the past for either of the adults in this family. So those rubbing their hands in some sick kind of anticipated glee, exercise some restraint, there is nothing new on this home front, the Jolie-Pitts are still very much together.

YEP, YOU ARE CORRECT

OMG—are you guys serious! The troll told you at the very beginning of the thread that it has no life and was going to be here to irritate you all day long. Some of you really are believing it’s lies??? Of course there is no video of him leaving. The troll then answered himself saying ohhh there will be pictures tomorrow because BP got caught and came running back.
The troll is writing a one person fiction. It knows pics are going to pop up any minute…..
Let’s say BP had to leave soooooooo what. Is this how much faith some of you have on our beloved couples commitment to each other.
After watching them for years and seeing how much they love each other I have no worries at all. The only worry I have is how mentally sick the trolls are.
I have even got used to the tabloids, they are going to lie, lie and lie. So don’t buy them and waste your hard earned money. Donate 20, 30 bucks that you would have spent on tabloids to a cause you believe in at the end of the year . JMHO

^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^^

Blah, blah, blah. After all that crap you wrote Brad still has 100+ MILLION dollars and you’re still FAT.

Who pressed the panic button? Let’s get a grip…Where are the troll busters? We have an emergency…Jolie-Pitt world under attack once again.

They tiped splash to take the arrival pics, after that he left. He was more careful last night because if the press finds out (like they did) his move will backfire.

He’s trying to control the tabbies before he starts doing press for Jese James. He wants this movie to be his oscar ticket BAD, but the tabloids are running his plan.

Sucks that they found out he left, now he will have to get back tomorrow and I’m sure will get pics of him at the airport. Zen master is back to work.

I tought it was funny that the guy who taped the video for splash was the same guy angelina gave a lift back in NYC.

You are harsh and you tend to generalize, but you are right.

It’s like some people like latching on to negative stories posted by people and websites that they’ve never even heard of.

Another problem… some fail to recognize that when there’s a day of awesome BAMPZS pics and stories, the haters regroup and hit harder and longer. It happened with Cannes, the GGs, Shiloh’s birth, etc.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s Son Maddox Can Be Yours for Only $1.99
Thursday, August 09, 2007

By Roger Friedman

Brangelina Kid Price Tag: $1.99

Maddox Jolie-Pitt gets his first magazine cover this week courtesy of Life & Style Weekly. The Bauer publication, based in New Jersey, took pictures of Maddox’s sixth birthday party from a boat, thanks to a telescopic lens and an intrusive international photo agency.

Even though Angelina Jolie has sold pictures of her kids in the past — to People, notably — and for lots of money, this time she was had at her own game. The pictures show Jolie and Brad Pitt cavorting with their kids — Maddox, Zahara and Shiloh (Pax is not on the cover) — mostly unaware that the festivities were being recorded for posterity.

The result is a front-cover full-page shot of Maddox, complete with the magazine’s round yellow price tag that reads in black: “1.99.”

It’s unclear who’s become more devalued: the magazines for conducting business formerly left to the National Enquirer and Star, or the parents for putting the dare into the air. Because that’s what it became the minute Jolie allowed her kids into the market.

“This is no different than Us’ [magazine] recent cover with Shiloh or anything with Suri Cruise,” one tabloid expert said.

Whether or not the Pitts can or would sue Bauer for invasion of privacy, the damage is certainly done. And it also shows that the rules have changed. Children used to be off-limits. Then it became a game among paparazzi to get the first pictures of babies after they were born. Now all bets are off.

Because Jolie has let People and others have sanctioned, staged pictures of her kids, paparazzi now feel they have the right to snap away.

Michael Jackson almost looks like a good parent at this point, making sure his kids’ faces are covered up all the time. I said almost.

Interestingly, the Maddox birthday pictures were originally being featured online Wednesday as a link to TV’s “Access Hollywood.”

“Everyone wanted them,” an insider told me. “All the shows did features.”

But I’m told the NBC syndicated celeb show backed off from actually airing them when they realized the legal brouhaha in the making.

And by midday Wednesday, there was no mention of the shoot at the “Access” site or the ones belonging to “Extra,” “ET” and “The Insider.”

True fans, please don’t allow yourselves to be dragged into the “where is Brad” debate. The haters/trolls are once again trying to start sh@t among the fans, and near fans. Wait and all will be revealed. Never doubt. Never lose faith. Believe in the positive. And tell the trolls to kiss your ass. :lol: But in a nice and polite way of course. Whatever happened was well planned out in advance. These people plan every single detail because they know the whole world is watching. Peace :)

I don’t believe the troll either. The only thing that makes me question just a tiny bit whether he left was the link to a blog. The same blog that many here took their word for that Jane pitt was in town. Personally , I can’t tell from that photo if that was jane . So I want to know what the credibilty is of that one blog is who supposedly gave the JoliePitts itinery for yesterday. The tolls I give no credibilty.

OMG Look at this! It’s a video montage of the greatest women in film from the past 80 years. I played it to see if our Angelins is in it and of course she is! For all you film buffs out there, this is positively droolworthy. See how many of the actresses you can name. Beautiful, enjoy

http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=vEc4YWICeXk

When Brad was passing Madd on the small bike he was riding, he saw Angie and Shiloh on the incline and drove directly up to them. Shiloh see’s daddy,Brad and Angie see each other exchange hello’s-hi honey’s.
Next we see papa and Shi,with Shi sitting on daddy’s knee as he holds her protectively. While Angie and Brad talk to each other, their girls, as they watch their oldest daughter play in front of them. I thought this was telling of how devoted and dedicated this family is to each other.

But this was already posted. Or was your purpose to show that Friedman is still jonesing for his Midol?

And, oh yeah… the J-Ps weren’t the first high-profile couple whose children became the subject of the media. What about the Kennedys? As far as I know, the fascination wasn’t fueled by a million-dollar paycheck for a picture; it was because of the parents and what they and their children represented to the public.

The Chosen One in Chicago!
Angelina Jolie arrived holding the Chosen One to resume work on Wanted in Chicago but only after celebrating Maddox’s 6th birthday at the weekend dressed in camouflage with matching face paint. Am jealous. My parties always involved cheap Chinese relatives who made a habit of re-gifting lame presents. One year my cousin Cat and I both received globes. WTF???

Anyway, as you can see, the Family Pitt is in tact. Love the one with Angelina holding Pax lying down on a lawn chair. And of course Brad the party dad zooming around with his boy. Word is he was livid last week at tabloid speculation over who would get to keep Shiloh, especially right before Maddox’s birthday. Not because the story was full of **** or because of break up reports but because of what he said to a source was the “irresponsible” emphasis placed on his biological child, to the point where Maddox, Pax, and Zahara are only just referred to as “the others”, that he would actually focus on custody of the Chosen One above all.

As for the family’s Chicago stay – apparently they’re ensconced in the same hotel and the same suite as Jennifer Aniston right after the split. See photo of Angelina on set on Tuesday in a black leather jacket. Those extensions actually looks pretty good. Why is it then that the twats in Hollywood can’t ever find some quality weave?

HEY CLEIRVIEW IDIOT @ 08/09/2007 at 11:39 am

When and where has Angelina Jolie ever said she would not let her children play with guns? Don’t lie about what she said. Read what she said to USA Today at the premiere of God Grew Tired of US. There is also of video of her saying the very same thing. Brad even chimes in.

Angie said:
As for playing with war toys, the former Tomb Raider and Mr. & Mrs. Smith star confessed, “I’m a bad person to ask, because my son’s going to see the films I do, and I can’t tell him not to play with toys.

Brad said:
Pitt, dressed in a black trench coat with the collar up, chimed in that he, too, played war as a boy, “but I consider myself all right. It didn’t affect me in any way.”

What do you tell children about war?

By William Keck, USA TODAY
LOS ANGELES — Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are facing a dilemma as their three children, particularly Maddox, 5 1/2, grow older.

Should the activist couple expose their kids to the ravages of war? Should Maddox play with toy guns?

“That’s a very tough question,” Jolie said Monday. “We can’t shield the world from our children, (though) I certainly think we can shield certain images. We should keep grotesque images away from the children, because it could scare them. But it’s a part of the world, and we must show them.”

The topic is relevant for the couple, who made a rare appearance together at the Pacific Design Center for the Los Angeles premiere of a documentary Pitt produced, God Grew Tired of Us. It opens Friday in select theaters in New York and Los Angeles.

The documentary follows the travels and challenges of the “lost boys” of Sudan, who were forced to flee their war-ravaged country to escape death and sterilization.

“My son knows about land-mine victims,” Jolie said. “My daughter (Zahara, who turned 2 on Monday) watches things about Darfur. My kids know what’s happening, because they’ve seen those parts of the world.”

As for playing with war toys, the former Tomb Raider and Mr. & Mrs. Smith star confessed, “I’m a bad person to ask, because my son’s going to see the films I do, and I can’t tell him not to play with toys.

“But you teach them good guys and bad guys. You teach them (about) fighting for the right things.”

Pitt, dressed in a black trench coat with the collar up, chimed in that he, too, played war as a boy, “but I consider myself all right. It didn’t affect me in any way.”

Pitt said their homes’ televisions are often tuned to CNN’s war coverage. But “we have been having this discussion right now exactly about what kind of images we want them to see and what we don’t want them to see. It’s something we’re focusing on.”

The film is narrated by Nicole Kidman, who arrived wearing Prada.

She said her son with ex-husband Tom Cruise, Connor, who turns 12 next week, intentionally was steered away from war games.

“I’m not a counselor,” she said, “but with my son, I never let him have a (toy) gun or weapon. But he desperately wanted one.”

Still, she stressed that the fragile state of the world today has not taken away from her desire to have a child with her second husband, country music star Keith Urban, who is in rehab.

“Yes!” she said when asked about her plans for another child, pointing to the documentary’s positive presentation of “a sense of community and hope.”

The event, also attended by Edward Norton, Johnny Knoxville and Roseanne Barr, allowed Kidman her first meeting with the three African stars of the film, Daniel Abul Pach, Panther Bior and Jonn Bul Dau. “They’re shiny, beautiful in spirit, and they’ve accumulated no bitterness,” Kidman said.

Dau said that when he was first told of Kidman’s participation, his response was, “Who is her?”

Kidman immediately connected with Bior over, of all things, fashion. She was tickled by the valentine-patterned red tie he was wearing.

“Panther’s wife sent it to him from Nairobi,” Kidman said.

He has not been able to visit his spouse, for political and financial reasons, for a year and a half.

“He so wants her to join him here,” Kidman said.

The film also was produced by Catherine Keener and Dermot Mulroney, who are friends of Pitt and his former wife, Jennifer Aniston.

Keener and Mulroney posed together for photos but sat in separate rows during the screening.

Mulroney, who declined to discuss his marital status (”let’s not even go there”), said their son, Clyde, 7, does show an interest in playing war.

“There are a couple of toy guns in the house,” he said with a sigh. “Boys want them so badly. It’s tough.”

But he was very proud that “we were able to get the film over the hump to where its landed now with a national release.”

Mulroney has immense respect for the “lost boys” and their ability to survive the challenges thrown at them and to create families “with nothing but respect and love.”

They must feel as if they are being tracked by GPS, their every move and location pinpointed. These are some extremely tough and strong people, this constant life under a microscope and telescope would have driven me insane long ago. Instead they go about having a life and family. Don’t think any obstacle can defeat them.

It’s nice to see Angelina smiling so much.’GOD bless her’ and her family. It has’nt been 8 months yet since her mom who was her best friend passed. Angie looks just glowing and happy. She seems to just want to smile..and I love it.

LMAO! You know she touches herself thinking about him every night.

if i’m not mistaken, Anthony has little kid with ex spouse, and yet nobody calls JL a homewrecker;

2 little kids…and he and jlo married just days after his quickie divorce went through. I saw his beautiful ex wife on latin tv show, she was upset and hoping the rumors werent true about her husband and Jlo because they had had many fights about her for years. She was very suspicious and jealous over jennifer and worried her husband was still in love with her. But I guess Anthony thought since Jennifer was with another man…he would marry someone, have children with her…at least until jlo was free.

you are right, compared to many in hollywood, Angie IS saint.

Anthony and Jlo should thank God, Anthony didnt divorce Jennifer Aniston. I guess it is ok to actually really cheat on your spouse, lie to her,leave your kids..as long as your spouse is not Jennifer Aniston.

Angelina doesn’t seem like a woman who would play for the press and after look like a moron.

++++++++++=

ITA. Brad and his X might be players, the way they play the ” Golden couple” for years. but not Angelina, that’s why she’s always getting the negative press.
Brad’s a responsible person, he make sure his family are first settle , even bringing mom along to help Angie’s with the kids, then flew back to LA for his business, he is a busy man, he will be promoting TAOJJ later this month, and the film with GC will start rolling next month. I’m sure it’s already in pre-production stage. both Brad and Angie are in mature, secure and confident relations. it’s totally different from their previous relations. I’ve a lot of confidence on this two.

Yeah, Katie Holmes came back to the States while Tom is still in Germany, I guess that means they split too. Oh wait no cuz they arent Brad and Angelina, its only when these two are apart for a second that they are splitting up. Ridiculous

Exactly…

I missed a beautiful thread. lol

ok..so lets say brad did break up with angelina, shes not going to lose anything really, she has her kids, her money, she still gets good movies and is happy with what she does with her un work, still is young and beautiful can always looks for a young guy like her, but brad is almost 44, wont be seeing his kids all that much cuz they would be living with angie and he cant really get another youngwomen as angie that woud fulfill his life and not even mention 14 kids. so yeah if brad ever screws up with angie , its really his loss.at least angie is a well known actress but anyway this isnt really my oppinion, its just someting i woud observe because haterz try to make angie sound like shes everything with brad an nothing wihout him but rally if bad looses angie its his loss.andd angie is a very indepedent women she deosnt need mn to help her live…sh not jen aniston

Angelina Jolie arrived holding the Chosen One to resume work on Wanted in Chicago but only after celebrating Maddox’s 6th birthday at the weekend dressed in camouflage with matching face paint. Am jealous. My parties always involved cheap Chinese relatives who made a habit of re-gifting lame presents. One year my cousin Cat and I both received globes. WTF???

Anyway, as you can see, the Family Pitt is in tact. Love the one with Angelina holding Pax lying down on a lawn chair. And of course Brad the party dad zooming around with his boy. Word is he was livid last week at tabloid speculation over who would get to keep Shiloh, especially right before Maddox’s birthday. Not because the story was full of **** or because of break up reports but because of what he said to a source was the “irresponsible” emphasis placed on his biological child, to the point where Maddox, Pax, and Zahara are only just referred to as “the others”, that he would actually focus on custody of the Chosen One above all.

As for the family’s Chicago stay – apparently they’re ensconced in the same hotel and the same suite as Jennifer Aniston right after the split. See photo of Angelina on set on Tuesday in a black leather jacket. Those extensions actually looks pretty good. Why is it then that the twats in Hollywood can’t ever find some quality weave?

You guys need to get a grip. The tabloids and journalists are playing all of you. They don’t know a thing and why are they writing about Brangelina, hmmm? Brad & Angelina are just living life like other people in the film business. They are no different. So what if Brad has to leave town for a few days? People forget that these two are stuperstars each on their own. They do work together sometimes like in Mr. & Mrs. Smith and A Mighty Heart but basically they have separate careers. Have you all forgotten that?

She said: “I mean, Brad Pitt was hot but I don’t know if I find him to be so fascinating, to be perfectly honest.

Im sure Brad thinks the same way about her whenever he sees her on tv.

“How did that B@tch get a tv show?”

Haters

Just you jealousy!!!!!!!

She can always leave that poor old man who was so desperate for kids, now he’s got them and what is he trying to do?? It wont work

Not long ago i saw a programme on cnn called stalking angelina it was all about the paparazzi. To the idiots who think this family constantly tip them off you are out of your mind. The razzi get tips from everyone and anyone and that includes hotel workers, airport staff, the public, anyone will give up anything when money is involved. These paparazzi have all the up to date equipment they have trackers and they are all in groups talking to each other on walkie talkies they are relentless when pursuing the target that is the most money. As for this chicago trip all fans on this board knew she would be in chicago so it doesn’t take a genius to figure that the paps would get her arriving there and pics of her on set.

~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~~

You are harsh and you tend to generalize, but you are right.

It’s like some people like latching on to negative stories posted by people and websites that they’ve never even heard of.

Another problem… some fail to recognize that when there’s a day of awesome BAMPZS pics and stories, the haters regroup and hit harder and longer. It happened with Cannes, the GGs, Shiloh’s birth, etc.

Good points Piper.

Maybe it is just new fans, but im becoming more weary of those who dont see how they are being played, than I am with the trolls.

How about Sheryl Crow selling her adopted baby’s pics to OK mag? Was that OK? I didn’t hear a peep out of the fanistons.

True fans, please don’t allow yourselves to be dragged into the “where is Brad” debate. The haters/trolls are once again trying to start sh@t among the fans, and near fans. Wait and all will be revealed. Never doubt. Never lose faith. Believe in the positive. And tell the trolls to kiss your ass. But in a nice and polite way of course. Whatever happened was well planned out in advance. These people plan every single detail because they know the whole world is watching. Peace :)

Word is he was livid last week at tabloid speculation over who would get to keep Shiloh, especially right before Maddox’s birthday. Not because the story was full of **** or because of break up reports but because of what he said to a source was the “irresponsible” emphasis placed on his biological child, to the point where Maddox, Pax, and Zahara are only just referred to as “the others”, that he would actually focus on custody of the Chosen One above all.

So, they are breaking up? because he was mad at the custody story not at the break up one.

219 guli : 08/09/2007 at 11:23 am

OMG—are you guys serious! The troll told you at the very beginning of the thread that it has no life and was going to be here to irritate you all day long. Some of you really are believing it’s lies??? Of course there is no video of him leaving. The troll then answered himself saying ohhh there will be pictures tomorrow because BP got caught and came running back.
The troll is writing a one person fiction. It knows pics are going to pop up any minute…..
Let’s say BP had to leave soooooooo what. Is this how much faith some of you have on our beloved couples commitment to each other.
After watching them for years and seeing how much they love each other I have no worries at all. The only worry I have is how mentally sick the trolls are.
I have even got used to the tabloids, they are going to lie, lie and lie. So don’t buy them and waste your hard earned money. Donate 20, 30 bucks that you would have spent on tabloids to a cause you believe in at the end of the year . JMHO

AMEN GULI… THIS DESERVES TO BE REPOSTED.

Thes haters are getting crazier as day gone by and exploding in madness after constantly being fooled by the tabs. about Brad and Angie impending break-up. and bomb ! here comes all the picture of a happy , blissful family. Maddox birthday and Shiloh smooching her mom. all these blissful pic. destroy their fantasy and delusion. They rather been fool and lied by the tabs for almost 2 yrs. rather than believing this family is real and solid.
i’m going agree with peaches and OHH! PLEASE , i’m 200% convinced that some of haters here are insane.

Angelina was the one who filed for divorce from Billy Bob!! And there were also reports that after Angelina divorce him… he wanted her back, but Angelina refuse to take him back!! So get your facts straight!!

Criminey! L&S just can’t help themselves, can they? THEY’VE GOT FREAKING PHOTOS AND THEY STILL LIE!

On Brad readying the troops for Capture the Flag: “Brad really got into it,” says the insider. “He was decked out in military fatigues and a helmet.

ROTFL! Anybody see Brad in any fatigues in these photos? Uh…that would be a big ass NO!

I also notice that this entire story is once again pitched as “Brad The Magnificent Dad” and Angie’s role in her son’s birthday party is relegated to “EVEN ANGIE and Zahara painted their faces.” Like Angie would consider herself above a little cammo paint! Dipshits.

That must be because you havent met my niece. She is a few months older than Shiloh and she kisses JUST LIKE THAT!

OHMYGAWD, hate is a mofoker. These people are desperate and so full of hate they are stupid. What is truly sad is this is not about x, or Brad with Angie, or Angie and the black and brown babies. This is about just plain blind hatered because two people have the nerve to seem happy after everyone/haters saying they wouldn’t last. I pray everyday that I never, ever hate like this. It is a disease, a sickness, a sadness. They have no love in them. They are spiritual bankrupt. Peace.

273 BBT’s the man
=================================================================

And actions like this make BBT a man in your DESCRIPTION of what a man is? Hel* to the no, you just described a lower being, not a man.

THANK ALL THE GODS THAT BBT HAD AND HAS ABSOLUTELY NOTHING TO DO WITH MADDOX!!! THAT CHILD DESERVED A DADDY AND THAT’S WHAT HE HAS IN BRAD, A REAL MAN.

Have any of you seen what Roger Friedman looks like? LMAO! Once you get a look at him you will never take anything he writes seriously.

Anyway you see what Life & Style has done? All of you glowing about how “nice” this tabs is with this story and how we should all “support” the tabs when they are positive. F* that. To the casual observer, they would wonder about another cover of a Jolie-Pitt kid. They don’t know the mechanics of how L&S got the paps pics. All they know is that once again, a JP kid is on the cover. That’s not a good thing. The story is not cover worthy and should just be a footnote on the inside. I don’t even think the pics are good enough for Instyle Magazine. They are not good quality.

Those rags are vicious by nature and for some of you to ooh and ahhh that those vicious tabs have children on the cover is sick. An anouncement with photo of a newborn barely passes but other than that no covers of a child should be on there on a running basis. Their parents are celebs not the children, no matter what you think. The parents have actually worked for their success, the children have not done anything. How is this party any different than any other birthday party Maddox has had for him to be on the cover? Why is a kids birthday party on the cover? Who is that rag marketing to?

Good job of Cindy G or was it Angie herself at tipping off the photogs for nice, clear PR pics. Impressive. LOL. Also, nice fan fiction on the part of Life and Style. Do we buy it? Not one bit.

Why would brad be pissed at the break up stories he’s been use to the tabs saying it since the beginning. He is pissed off that they just single out shiloh as being most important to him and not his other kids. Trust haters to take what they want from that and spin it.

if her sources are right(or she actually has any), then i’m glad to hear brad was pi$$ed, the articles was extremely offensive, and painted him as selfish and somewhat racist, star magazine did this once with their ’shiloh stays with me cover’ and other mags have done similar covers,it’s to be expected the media is full of racist and those who don’t see adopted children as real children, i’d be anoyed too, they regularly infer that he hates the other children saying shiloh is the reason he gets out of bed and all that crap.so it’s good to know…..

The trolls still on the breaking up sh*t again?? Oh man it’s been 3 years running and these lame morons are like a broken record playing their WAR CRY over and over and over puleaseee be creative for once ohh heck they can’t do that they have a pea size brain actually no brain at all ..ROTFLMAO!!!

ROTFLMAO! at some of these posts.

Now, Brad and Angelina are calling the paps? Let’s see, how many press outlets and pap agencies have all said that they’re the most followed couple on the planet. Yet, they have to call the paps. Sure. And I mean, damn it’s not like the paps would know they’d be in Santa Barbara to celebrate Maddox’s B-day. I mean, it’s not like that’s where they’ve celebrated it the last 2 years prior. Who knew? And Chicago, seriously, it’s not like the Chicago press hasn’t been creaming themselves over Angelina and Brad’s arrival for how long now? Yet, they had to be called. This same press that said that Angelina was in town when she clearly wasn’t. Is now so accurate.

Brad might have been seen going to the airport. Yet, he wasn’t seen boarding the plane? Did he leave for someplace else? Did he possibly take his mother to the airport? Was he even really there? Who knows?

What is so funny to me is that Brad and Angelina can’t be apart for even a day because that means they’ve broken up. Oh, no! Say it ain’t so. Yet, Brad and his ex could be apart for months and yet, everything was just fine before Angelina entered the picture.

Here’s the thing, yeah, Brad and his ex played the press and it’s come back and bit everyone in the ass. I’m thinking he won’t go that route again. Unlike his ex, Brad does seem to not repeat the same mistakes again. See, he and his ex wife never put their relationship first. They never made sure that while one was working, the other wasn’t. When they were away on location for months at a time, the other wasn’t right there with them the whole time. Yet, with Angelina, that is exactly what they’re doing. He learned a valuable lesson. One he took to heart as did Angelina with her previous marriage to BBT.

And I love how Angelina is just a puppet. That’s the funniest damn one of all. Yep, Angelina would just let she and Brad yank those kids chains for the sake of PR. The same Angelina that bailed on BBT because they were no longer working and he didn’t want to be a father to Maddox and it was a bad enviroment for Maddox. That same Angelina? And for those that say that BBT left Angelina, yeah, but he also wanted her back and she told him to get to stepping.

Brad going back to L.A. to look for a place to live when he’s got 2 homes in L.A. LMAO!

And now someone is spinning Lainey’s article. Hell, I wasn’t pissed at the breakup reports because I don’t believe them to be true, what irks me about the press is their need to devalue the other three kids and use Shiloh as a pawn to further their stories. She’s the only one that seems to matter to the press and the others, they act like they don’t exist. So, yeah, I can see where her parents would be peeved over that. It also pisses me off when they don’t call their children, just that, their children. They have to have the dividing line of adopted and biological. Or when they completely leave the others out. They have one child together, Shiloh.

Got to give the haters credit. They must like the ups and downs of it all. They run with the negative and when it’s proven false, time and again. They set themselves all over to go splat. I guess when you live your life with the bar so incredibly low and are so used to disappointment it sort of becomes your thing, what else is there really.

My… what a name.

But for brevity, why don’t go by FUCKTARD!!!

LOL sorry, but I knew this would happen. Trolls, haters, and Fanistons are largely illerate(which is why they only read tabloids) and have problems with reading comprehension.

It always seem so scripted to me because they same the same old sh@t over, and over, and over again. They don’t stop no matter who implores them. So maybe with you back and some of the other “old timers” joining in they will stop trying to convince people who don’t want to be convinced. Hater don’t care about facts. Look at Sam. Peace.

You act like they were the Wall Street Journal. It’s all trash which is sad because Maddox is on the cover of a trash magazine. Oh well.

There are plenty of magazines with fair interviews and good pictures. Go there. Stop gossiping.

why are haters out full force yesterday and today,the reason they can’t stand to see the jolie-pitts happy.they keep waiting,waiting,waiting,for them to break-up.they are not breaking up,now go tell ex to get a life, and leave the pitts alone,tell her to go round up ,her mom, and two brothers, and let us see her with her family instead ,always dragging the pitts down,WHERE IS HER MOM AND TWO BROTHERS AND DAD DID THEY RUN AWAY TOO.???????????????????????????????????????????????????

Baby at Shiloh age always kiss with their mouth open, because their masseter muscle was still not mature enough for them to pucker. that picture reminds me of my 3 kids when they were at that age, always giving mommie and daddy those big wet kiss. Awwwwww. teary eyes.
And on Angelina, stop reading and believing everything written by the tab. Research and read her past legit interview. and you’ll find out she actually was descent, amazing, great woman. 100 x better than Brad shallow X wife. BRad is really lucky to have her!

Astute and correct on all points as always. They are used to the breakup stories which began from Day 1 of Brad and Angie’s relationship. Those they ignore because they are not valid.

But the intentional efforts to make one child, little sweetie Shiloh, out of their four the only “real child” would make any parent very angry. Maddox especially can read, he will be hurt by all this first, and you know that hurts his parents who both love all their kids. This is one of the concerns Angelina has had and look how true it is. Three kids are totally devalued and discarded. This is the fault of those in society who will not accept that everyone is indeed equal in value.

So very sad.

OHH! PLEASE, posted the very thing not too long ago. About the tabliods doing a disservice to Brad and that any parent would know that and be upset. And thank you for seeing the same thing that I did where the tabliods are concerned.

Also, that is why I didn’t like the last thread when it first showed up (i.e., Brad, Angie, and Shiloh in Chicago) as if Mad, Pax, and Z didn’t matter. It put both Angie and Brad in a bad light and that isn’t who they are. And they wouldn’t be happy with the exclusion of their other children, IMO.

As for Lainey, I don’t really know if she has sources but anyone with a brain would know that a parent(s) would be pissed when some tries to pit their children against each other.

Thank you… now I’ve read everything about Angelina and Brad.

What i find funny on the tabloids is, not the crap stories themselfs, but the nerve that they have in writing them and aspect that people will belive them.

dina #1,cece, besane and ike, thank you!

I don’t want to sound hypocrytical, since I fell in to the same trap when I first started posting here over two years ago.
I admired this family so much that I wanted to DEFEND any negative post about them.
I would respond to the trolls which would go on and on. It’s a viciuos cycle. Btw, they were much more intelligent in the early days, the quality of the trolls has really gone down-hill, I think because the intelligent ones moved on!!!
Anywhoo, we all did this at one point but as time went on, we all realized we were playing into their hands. I know, I know it is frustrating you want to lash out, but that’s exactly what they want. All I am saying to fans that are new here, learn from our mistakes don’t engage in a convo at least directly (make general comment re trolls) with them or believe anything they write if we want to keep the threads RELATIVELY clean (emphasis is on relatively, because they will always be here). :lol: :lol:

Why would brad be pissed at the break up stories he’s been use to the tabs saying it since the beginning. He is pissed off that they just single out shiloh as being most important to him and not his other kids. Trust haters to take what they want from that and spin it.
———————————————————————–
EXACTLY! There’s nothing to deny from a ‘relationship’ perspective because it’s not true and frankly, I think both he and Angie think it’s humorous LOL. Besides, it’s already been responded to via his rep and visiual evidence shows (anyone with common sense) they are together. I think it doesn’t bother them about the relationship stuff but the kids are a different story. It’s been speculated to bother them when the tabs differentiate between the kids like they do so this is not difficult for me to believe. I’m sure the fact they put Maddox on the cover of the mag didn’t make them happy either.

As for Lainey, anybody who regularly reads her site knows she consistently denies actual strife/separation with B&A. She isn’t saying anything different here…anyone trying to spin this entry as something else doesn’t read Lainey often because if she wanted to say they were breaking up, she would :) She’s not because they aren’t.

Come on, you really think Brad and Angelina don’t play with the press now? I don’t think they are breaking up but they do use the press.

Lol….I think some of us now know it is futile trying to reason with the unreasonable, so we wait for them to get it out of their system and then continue with our regularly scheduled program.

That’s not what I said. I said I don’t think that Brad would play the press and prolong a breakup if it were true like he did the last time. It’s come back and bit all of them in the ass. And I don’t believe Angelina would do it. I also don’t think they’d mess with their kids that way. Either one of them. If it was that bad, kids aren’t stupid and it wouldn’t be a healthy enviroment.

These haters come here anytime Brad or Angelina are away from each other for even a day and say they’re breaking up. Yet, it was these same people that swear that things were just great between Brad and Aniston prior to Angelina. Yet, Brad and Aniston spent months apart. Again, that’s on Brad and Aniston and again, that’s why I don’t think he’ll make the boneheaded mistake of playing at fine again.

When Brad and Angelina start spending good chunks of time apart while working and NOT working, then yeah, something is up. A day or two, here or there is no different than any other couple. Celebrities and non celebrities alike.

dare mag has ten things they think we dont know about x. 1. she is worthy £45m ($90 000 000) 2. she earns £3.5m for each and every movie she makes. 3. she moved to malibu to be near her bff so after her failed marriage to brad so that CC should always comfort her. 4 if she wasnt an a s..t actress she would have been a doctor or something like that, the rest is bonkers.

=======WELL SAID. BRAVO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!1

AG—ITWAU, but you remember we used to get engaged with them in a convo one and one convo, which is the worst thing to do because, they are getting the attention they want.By generalizing them as trolls takes the fun out of their satisfaction :-) BTW— I really felt sorry for Jesse last night. Poor man probably has one hell of a hang-over :-)

So when is day #2 camping starting;-)

Observer2—a wonderful post!!!

… are we discussing BBT? He’s so in the past … whether he dumped Angie or Angie left him is no longer relevant, they are so over.

As we know Brad has a movie to promote next month, so maybe he went to some photoshoot or something related to Plan B or maybe his NOLA green project.
Perhaps that’s why Jane Pitt is with them, remember when Angie traveled to Chad and Brad was working and Jane was seeing taking care of the kids?
There are no needs to worry, these haters keep coming here because their idol has nothing on her plate, she’s just a jobless, who is now single AGAIN (LMAO) b1tch!!!

Since they’ve nothing to talk about, they come here to spread hate!
Their jealousy will bite them in the ass, as it has been happening for about two years now!

ITA…especially the Angelina going along with it part….although she loves her children and the relationship they have with their Daddy she doesn’t strike me as one to roll with a facade or sham of a relationship ‘just’ for the kids. If it was bad or one of them wanted out, she would be ghost just like the BBT situation. TRUST!

…oh and she want a family, she’s always wanted kids so when the right man comes she is definetly going to have kids with him. She believes in marriage 100% and no she hasnt spoken to brad for so long now for like 11 months but she still like him. she doesnt care what the press say about her failed marriage with brad. and yes she does play the press when she fells like it. she is f… bonkers.

#93: even before HW got involved, President Bush and Dr. Condi Rice have been trying to get Koffi Anan to intercede in Darfur. The Bush administration was saying there is genocide in Darfur but the UN refused to label it as such. They preferred conflict and said it was an internal problem. When HW took it to a more vocal level, that was the only time people started paying more attention. Just an FYI.

and lastly she’s got 3 movies coming out next year. OMG i thought she was jobless but according to her i guess i was wrong. She is an a s s and a b!tch. she uses her friends for pablicity

GP and Chris to adopt a baby!!!!!!!!!!!

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

Says who? I will have to see to believe. I am 14 and I think I will adopt before GP does.

I think GP just says things sometimes to make herself sound interesting.

Besides, didnt lainey say there are rumors that Chris cheated on her? Gosh..yawn..typing about GP..I bored myself.

Somehow, when Brad’s affection left plain-Jane Miss Aniston and went for uber-Goddess Angie, a lot of people also lost a piece of themselves. Funny how Brad Pitt represents unattainable love and failure for the haters.

I watched it on showbiz channel mtz

luv Angie and her family,Angie @ 08/09/2007 at 12:54 pm

Angelina:What I wanted was to find somebody who first and foremost was a great father because I was already a parent. Yes I needed somebody who cared about the issues. But its not just that Brad will travel and he loves kids. Hes a thoughtful intelligent man. When it comes to talking about something going on in the world and what we can do his natural instinct is ‘How and when can we do that?’ Its the same with raising kids. He just naturally knows hes lucky to be a dad to these really funny love
