Angelina Jolie: No In Vitro Fertilization!
Angelina Jolie is shooting down reports that she and partner Brad Pitt conceived their twins Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline through in vitro fertilization.
“If they had been conceived by IVF, we would have been happy to discuss it,” Angie says in a new interview. “But we have been fortunate never to have had fertility problems.”
When asked about naming the twins, Brad said, “”The name Vivienne came to us early, as if she named herself–she has always been Viv. And Marcheline is to honor Angie’s mother. Knox came soon after. It is a family name, my grandfather’s. Léon is a classic French name.”
Last night, first pictures of the world’s most famous twins were revealed. On newsstands now is the issue of People, which gives an exclusive 19-page view of the Jolie-Pitt family of eight. Pick up your copy today!

This has been a very good year for Angelina.
sorry @ 08/07/2008 at 5:01 pm
I love Meryl Streep, but I don’t have to agree with everything she says or does.

# 1184 No smiling babies @ 08/07/2008 at 2:22 pm
Maybe newborns don’t smile around you becausre you’re just a sh#tty photographer. Or maybe they just don’t want to have their pictures taken and want Mom and Dad to take ‘em back home and let them sleep in peace. Or…maybe they just don’t feel like smiling. I highly doubt Vivienne is the first infant to smile before age 1 month. Like it’s a law or something…babies can’t smile on their own before day 31! Sheesh.
please @ 08/07/2008 at 5:08 pm
?? stop asking about JA’s movie, she has a thread. Stop interacting with haters.
===========
Honey, they’re here whether we interact with them or not. They just can’t stay away. No worries. :D :-P
briseis- I hear People ’s picture look lighter and better quality than Hello’s. Is that true?
Some Chick-
They’re calling you back from FemaleFirst.
You’ve overstayed your welcome.

Any mom knows newborns “smile”. The real social “smile” doesn’t come until they are few months old. That’s when babies smile when you talk to them. Newborns don’t “smile” in reaction to someone or something they see. Most of the time, we see them “smile” when they are asleep, for no reason at all. That’s why people say newborns “smile” when they have gas. Only people who have never dealt with babies don’t know that.
+++++++++++++++++++++
I’ve certainly seen newborns smile like that for no external reason while they’re asleep. A lab tech down the hall from us brought her newborn in at about 2 1/2 weeks old. He slept the whole time she was here, but occasionally he kind of grin in his sleep…and make a spit bubble that popped and drooled onto his chin. First time he did it while I was holding him? Then it was time for me to give him back to his mother. That’s a little life rule for PT - I don’t clean up after other people’s kids.
jjb @ 08/07/2008 at 12:50 pm Angelina Jolie to build AIDS clinic in Ethiopia
New York, Aug 6 : Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie is planning to build an AIDS clinic in Ethiopia for her daughter Zahara to manage when she grows up.
Jolie will make a trip to her adopted daughter’s native country to discuss building the clinic as part of the work of the Jolie-Pitt Foundation, a charity she set up with her husband Brad Pitt in 2006 for humanitarian aid around the world, reports Contactmusic.com.
“We will be building a Tuberculosis/AIDS clinic in Ethiopia. The one we plan for Zahara to take over when she is older,” Jolie told Britain’s Hello magazine.
Jolie also hopes to take son Maddox to his native place Cambodia as part of a separate charity trip that the family is planning once newborn twins Knox and Vivienne Marcheline grow up a little.
“The next trip for our foundation will most likely be Asia to follow up on the situation in Burma and our work in Cambodia. The boys have been asking to go there, so we will take them when Knox and Vivienne are a bit older,” she added.
*********************
These are the type of news that will effectively defend Jolie.
I’d be the first one to admit having fun in sweeping Trolls. I did that for a time. There are times when we must address those lies against Jolie, and many independent thinkers and defenders have done that. But I don’t belong to the CLUSTER FUCKFANS whose interest is to just engage anger vs anger and hatred vs hatred day after day. I don’t want to engage in a grade-school-essay contest responding to grunts like top brit [she is no gentry], Leetleun etc whose interests is to provoke with no sense of reality. There are those MORONS inevitably will be baited !
No, that’s just not me.
Jolie is an ordinary human being with EXTRAORDINARY CHARACTER AND DIGNITY. Regardless of what these grunts say, it will hardly put a dent on Jolie as a person.
I grew up privilege. I volunteered @ DWB for a very selfish reason. Truth be told, I had aversions seeing dirty Afhgans. But witnessing 100,000 man, women and children marching like prisoners just took my breath away ! They are practically dying even before they reach our camp. Jolie is their voice !
So I have a glimpse why Jolie is an activist. She awaken my idealist and activist in me, that regretfully died after college. Jolie’s works are idealism and activism in practice. I need not defend her honor and dignity. Her work will speaks for her !
Gers, Gascony, France
This region of France is unspoiled. Spectacular abbeys, cloister and cathedrals. ‘Abbaye de Flaran’ and Chateau Lavardens are an impressive castles from the 12th century. Miles and miles of sunflower and lavander fields. There are 15th century fortified villages that are so unbelievable and well-preserved structures as if you are living in the past. Bam and I biked Bam [actually a tricycle] to the public market. My skin has turned from pale to very deep tan. My hair and my lashes bleached from the sun. But it’s so much fun. The people are so nice and friendly. And yes, they have quaint bookstores near Abbaye just run out of Hello ! I didn’t see People mag here !
I still have 3 days left here. I met my younger brother in Nice. He is here for some business, but he is a Hedge Fund mgr from NYC.
‘Later !

It’s it sad the ridiculous Gates that the trolls are reduced to starting? Now they want BabySmileGate? Lord help ‘em all. Please.
Thanks. Ignoring the haters work best. The Jolie -Pitts are very famous, talking about them will get you in the press, now that’s the reason why people find frivolous things to say about them. The less attention these people get, the less they will engage in such practices.

lol at you waiting for one of the kids to write a tell all book. By the time any of them are able to write a book your bitterness will have killed you.
Of course you would hate if it Meryl publicly scolded you. You will probably cry your eyes out too. Because YOU need everyone’s approval to be happy in life. LOL
Angelina, on the other hand, does not care about other people’s opinion. She does what makes sense to her and her family.
where is Brad’s ring?he isn’t wearing it in new pics!
and since I wasn’t around for some days,I wanted to say why one of their kids is red head and another one black head?one is going to have red hair(I guess their boys) and one is going to have black hair.aren’t their parents blond? :roll:
I mean how could it be possible that since both of them are blond,why one of their kids black hair and another one red hair.compare their hair color and their eyebrows to Shiloh in her first pic,you will see it as well.
Well, since People says they did not photoshop, I would say they took the photos for People’s cover first. Then Brad and Angelina went outside in the midday heat and had some creative sex in the dirt before coming back in to finish the shot for Hello’s cover.

(FROM THE HOLLYWOOD REPORTER) — The Office’s B.J. Novak is in talks for a role in Quentin Tarantino’s upcoming WWII movie Inglorious ********. Novak would play PFC Utivich, one of the soldiers in the director’s long-gestating film about a band of Jewish resisters in Vichy-era France. Brad Pitt is in talks to play the leader of the band of soldiers. Shooting is scheduled to start this fall and wrap in time for Cannes in May 2009. (Hollywood Reporter)
Separately, reports in a British tabloid that had Britney Spears lined up for a role as a lesbian killer in Tarantino’s upcoming remake of Faster Pussycat! Kill! Kill! are apparently false. A rep for Spears told Access Hollywood, ”Though she definitely intends to explore acting roles down the road, right now she’s concentrating on recording her next album.” And a source close to Tarantino is quoted as saying, ”There is no truth to this.” (Access Hollywood)

Here is a picture of a 2 week old Levi (Matthew McConaughey’s son)smiling.http://cityrag.blogs.com/main/2008/07/matthew-mcconau.html
It is quite clear haters/trolls will b*tch over ANYTHING concerning Angelina/Brad.
++++++++++++++++++++
LOL! Send this to the NY magazine folks who accused Peeps of Photoshopping Vivienne’s picture. They didn’t accuse OK of using Photoshop.

That’s George for ya. Entire article at link
CAUSE CÉLÈBRE/TINA DAUNT
By Tina Daunt, Los Angeles Times Staff Writer
August 8, 2008
There was a celebrity drama in both presidential campaigns this week, although the casts and outcomes couldn’t have been more different.
Sen. Barack Obama’s campaign announced that überstar George Clooney will host an exclusive — that means expensive — fundraiser for the Democratic candidate in, get this, Geneva, Switzerland, on Sept. 2.
For $1,000, guests will get to attend a reception and hear Clooney give a speech, presumably praising Obama (who will be otherwise engaged back in the States). Ten thousand dollars gets you dinner with Clooney at the grand manse of Charles Adams, an international American attorney who has represented such clients as Euro Disney. The event is expected to sell out, as are all the five-star suites in Geneva hotels that week.
The event is the first Clooney has held since Obama entered the presidential race. The actor has intentionally stayed off the campaign trail because he feared the senator’s Republican opponent would make an issue of Obama’s celebrity support. (Who would ever do that?)
In any event, the fundraiser will cap a busy summer for Clooney, who has been spending time recently with his good friend Rande Gerber and Gerber’s wife, Cindy Crawford,in St. Tropez.
Later this month, he will leave Lake Como for the Venice Film Festival, where his comedy — the Coen brothers’ movie “Burn After Reading,” also starring Brad Pitt — will premiere. While Clooney is there, he’ll hold a fundraiser for Darfur, his key cause.
So now whe have smilegate and hairgate! LOL! You people claimed to hate this family and yet you analyze every article published, dissect their pictures, scrutinize other celebs/people opinion of them to look for that hidden meaning you’re wishing for- that everybody hates the JPS.
Sadly, you will be forever unhappy, bcoz the JPs are well liked by their peers and well loved by their fans.
Just go and be happy-for your sake!
Smilegate. The troll is conspiracy central, vodoo crazy and Brangie obsessed. Too funny. I knew they would be the first to get the magazine or look at pictures to obsess and pour over with a magnifying glass in their dank caves. Hens never disappoint.

=========================
We get it, you’re privileged! :D
All joking aside however, I agree, it is somewhat satisfying at times to knock down ignorance, prejudice and just plain rudeness, but, on a daily basis to take such opinions seriously can be soul wearing. I realize now that no matter what others say, good or bad, or however I may agree or disagree with someone, in the end the only opinions that matter are my own. To mangle a quote, ‘When the voice inside is louder than the voice outside, that is when you know you have true peace’. So I read all the negative posts here but they slide off my back like water on a duck. Because my truth speaks louder to me than any other opinion. I may be wrong, but, from all that I can see AJ is the same. Peace. :)

I would hate to be publicly scolded by Meryl Streep. OUCH!
++++++++++++++++++++
Luckily for Meryl she’s never heard of your crazy ass and won’t have to bother. I envy her.
Someone told in JJB that it has been assuming,she won’t go to Venice and Dauville and Toronto with Brad.is there any article to say that or she was pulling this out of her a**?any information?

Hey! Let’s have some fun! What other types of minutae will the Xfans find from the latest JP photos. Come on now! nothing’s too trivial.
Ok, I’ll start.
1. B&A are forcing Pax to deny his culture by dyeing his hair.
Remember, nothing is too trivial or just plain illogical to be added.
