Angelina Jolie Tortures Jennifer Aniston?
Please don’t shoot the messenger!
Us Weekly’s latest cover story goes in-depth on how Angelina Jolie supposedly tortures her current partner’s ex-wife, Jennifer Aniston.
The headline bullet points read:

LOL
im more interested in the side story!
‘taylor vs joe. its war!@’
TEAM TAYLOR!
and btw. maniston is so effing annoying. why didnt she fade away like her friends costars?! i mean seriously! she is so effing annoying with her constant crying and complaining and her poor poor pitiful me rants on oprah. go away maniston!
Angelina looks so hot. Chinnifer, thin-lipped spinster per-usual.
And can Chin-Chin take out the green contacts and bring her hair and eyes back to brown? And get her mother out of that dungeon of a nursing home?
JJ, if you’re going to post information make sure it’s not tabloid trash. US Weekly is known for its trashy headlines. The whole Brad, Angelina, Jennifer story is sooooooooo boring now!!!!
Well, I have to say I have no respect for this US trash tabloid.
To make money, they can write anything…
They can make up stories at all costs.
Its almost 4 years now.
Why don’t you stop all this trash about Brad Pitt, Angelina Joile and Jennifer Aniston.
Enough already !!!
this is so stupid..why would angie be thinking about jen…I mean, this is news, is older than dirt, let it rest
Angelina looked sooo much better at the time of that pic….WHAT happened to her?!
Anyone, one thing I’ve come to notice, is that who is primarily reading these tabloids seem to be bitter, spinster Aniston fans after speaking to a girl who had seemed to memorize all the rumors about Angelina, and then she revealed she was an X fan.
Jared you are too funny.. what kind of $hit is this.. Ange did no such thing and Jen knows it.. and Us is just sensationalizing BS.. I love the pics they used.. Beauty vs Beast
Anyway, one thing I’ve come to notice, is that who is primarily reading these tabloids seem to be bitter, spinster Aniston fans after speaking to a girl who had seemed to memorize all the rumors about Angelina, and then she revealed she was an X fan.
If Angelina had gotten naked on the,it would have been all over the tabloids then ,not now. Jolie is too busy living her real life to worry about anythng except family and her charities. Difference between Jolie and Aniston is that , HW is a job for Jolie ,for Aniston its her life.
Angie has 6 kids….I dont think Jennifer is at the list of the top things to think about.
Dont you think????????????

Anyway, I’m personally kind of tired of the fake, tired feud myself. I’d rather just giggle about Chin-Chin’s failing love life and career now and admire the Jolie-Pitts. Peace.
And this surprises us because…. we thought Jolie is a saint? lol
If anyone still believes that Jolie did not throw herself at Brad during the filming of Mr & Mrs Smith is seriously delusioned.
All I have to say about this cover: Angie looks beautiful!

I THINK ANGIE IS GREAT, WITH HER FAULTS AND ALL AT LEAST SHE IS HONEST ABOUT THEM. SHE DOES NOT PRETEND TO BE THIS PERFECT PERSON WHO IS SOOO MISUNDERSTAND.
SHE SELFLESS AND SACRIFICES HERSELF FOR HER FAMILY AND TO GIVE BRAD WHAT HE WANTS MOST….A HOME AND A FAMILY, A HUMANITARIAN PURPOSE. HE IS NOW A BETTER MAN, NO LONGER JUST AN ACTOR AND A HUNK AND HUSBAND TO FAKE ALL AMERICAN GIRL..
ANGIE IS THE TRUE AMERICAN GIRL..NOT PERFECT, MADE MISTAKES, LEARNED FROM HER MISTAKES, GREW UP, HELPED OTHERS, A MOTHER, A PARTNER AND THE LIST GOES ON AND ON!

Both Brad and Angelina had a semi-n ude scene in MAMS. It was part of the script, and they are professionals. What do you expect, it comes with the job. Again, NO man leaves a happy relationship and a marriage. BS Weekly is desperate. Well, the economy, you know.
Sorry Jennifer Aniston, Brad Pitt couldn’t live without Angelina Jolie
Wednesday, 19 November 2008
Poor Jennifer Aniston might have to avoid switching on her TV if she wants to stop herself hearing what Angelina Jolie means to Brad Pitt.
The actor was full of praise for Angelina during a recent interview.
It seems that Brad couldn’t live without Angelina - and their six kids.
Brad seemed to really come alive as he told Oprah Winfrey and a studio audience about his love for his children.
Most kids go shopping with their parents but for Angelina and Brad taking all six kids altogether would be virtually impossible.
Brad admits: “We don’t go to the mall.
“It’s like a half-an-hour just to get everyone buckled in and make sure they’ve got their snacks, and Z.Z. (Zahara) has got a blanket and Shiloh’s got her silky.”
He confesses that it is Angelina who organises their family: “Angie’s militant about it. She’s right on top of it. Thank God, because I’m always forgetting something.”

CLINIQUA just who the hell you think you are to insult Jared and to tell what’s people have to do ??????????? it’s the freedom of speech and every one is free to post whatever he wanted, this news was every where, you’re not owning anything here, if you’re not happy get the f@ck out of here .
not again.yuck
SHE IS NOT THE ONE COMPLANING STUPID PEOPLE. THE MEDIAS WRITE THIS TO SELL THEIR MAGAZINES!
Won’t be buyin this mag, this feud is old and tired and should be retired.
I don’t believe anything US Weekly says, ever. It’s just a trashy magazine and I can’t believe some people actually spend their money one it…
Good tactic from US Weekly - it enhances sale. Stirring people against these celebrities they don’t even know. What a sad world!
Are you glad you are NOT them???
God bless the Jolie-Pitts and Jennifer!
hhhaaaayyyy aniston feeling victim!!! whatever nanny, you’re such a loser!!!!!! Oh please accept the fact that you born like that, dont pretend that you are beautiful as we all know that your not inside and out. Feeling tweetums,,, hallerrr( “hellooo!!!! “) you are 40 years old!!!!! So stop pretending that you are a victim here, your not funny anymore!!!

Stay well :)
ROTLFMAO. I just have one question: DOES ANGIE NEED ANY HELP TORTURING X? Cuz…I’m willing, able and ready! Somebody get me some pliers!
Anonymous @ 11/19/2008 at 11:04 am Won’t be buyin this mag, this feud is old and tired and should be retired.
ITA .
I think it’s the tabloids that tortures the ex-wife, not the ‘homewrecker’ , why keep on refreshing one’s failure in a marital relationship?
I think it’s the woman (the ex-wife) tortures another woman (the homewrecker), why forgives a man who betrayed you? If he turned out that ‘good’ after discarding you, wouldn’t it your fault that you lost him to the bad woman? As it’s the bad woman that turned him into a ‘good’ man, not you!
What you sow you shall reap!
Billion Dollar Babe trumps Flop WHINISTON !
GOD BLESS THE JOLIE-PITTS!
Us Weekly LIES too much!
Oh my god!
What is daaat?
Angelina, my poor blob!!!!!!!!!
http://nagie-gwiazdy.blog.onet.pl/2,ID124184122,index.html
BTW - that “how she got naked on the set to seduce Brad”? I’ll bet that’s from when they filmed the big sex scene and Angie didn’t wear the nu d e body stocking. Wonder if Min will include the fact that Brad refused any of the usual coverage, too? BBBWWWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!
Talk about beating a dead horse! They BOTH got nekkid and did so happily. Then again…Angie’s never used those body stockings. She didn’t in any of her past movies, no matter the co-star, so why would she start with Brad? And I don’t exactly re-call Brad wearing anything in Troy either… Uh-oh…better save this stuff that for my tab report…
Will not buy LIES Weekly! Enough is ENOUGH.
I am also canceling my VOGUE subscription
Cliniqua, you do not rule the board! You do not make the decisions for JP fans! You don’t want to post here then don’t, but don’t dictate to others were they should not go. You do not hve that power or right!
machiniston insecure,,,,,,,,,
Just a few things I found rather interesting.
http://www.celebritywonder.com/html/bradpitt_trivia1.html
According to relationship expert John Gray, Pitt and Jennifer Aniston’s marriage was doomed from the start. He said, They started out like the prom king and queen. He was the sexiest man and she the sexiest woman. That kind of pressure makes it hard to make a relationship last. (September 30, 2005)
Has blasted the media for using unflattering pictures of estranged wife Jennifer Aniston to illustrate how badly his relationship with Angelina Jolie has hit her. (August 22, 2005)
MR & MRS SMITH director Doug Liman insists there were no signs that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were an item on his film set, saying the story was just the tabloids working overtime, trying to explain Pitt’s break-up from wife Jennifer Aniston. (June 28, 2005)
According to MR AND MRS SMITH director Doug Liman, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie had immediate chemistry from the first day of the movie’s filming. (May 25, 2005)
Caused outrage at the Cannes Film Festival by walking out of the official screening of his film TROY before it had started. (May 29, 2004)
(Ok do I have this as saying that Pitt walked out on the Cannes just four days after filming started on the MAMS set. Impossible that he would have fallen for Jolie so hard after just days of filming as to leave his wife for someone he rarely knew? Seems there were problems in the marriage way before Jolie.)
Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston have been rowing over when to start a family — Pitt is so desperate to become a daddy that he was sorely disappointed to hear that his wife had signed on to do a tenth series of FRIENDS. (January 16, 2003)
Said he did not understand the idea that marriage had to be forever. (May 14, 2005)
why do these magazines do this?????? just to sell mags- how cheap dont believe a word of it.
TEAM ANISTON!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
I can believe that Angie would do.anything to seduce someone in there marriage. Remember she was the mental case, in her case she really is psychotic.no feelings towards anyone but herself. for her own gratification’s. I don’t put nothing pass Angie.
Now Jen is beautiful its in the eyes of the beholder as angie is but jen has that sweeter innocent look and angie has that sexy evil look.
Now please lets not compare bodies..
There was actually a true case about this and the married woman won millions from the jury she had a beautiful marriage. For his office worker for seducing her husband.
BBBBWWWWHAHHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!!!!
The Lies & Shite sidebar cracks me up! “IS JEN TRYING TO SPLIT UP BRAD & ANGELINA?”
Pffffft. If X had any influence on Brad he’s still be married to the twit! And you know Angie doesn’t think about her at all…contrary to anything Min may have to say this week…

“JEN, IM SORRY: BRAD FINALLY SEEKS FORGIVENESS - WILL IT ERASE FOUR YEARS OF JEN’S HURT?”
“PLUS, ANGELINA’S FURIOUS THEY’RE TALKING AGAIN!”
Uh…’scuse me for pointing this out, but y’all have been claiming for 4 years that they were still talking so why would Angie be mad that “talking AGAIN”? I love it when these idiots bust their own lies…
http://coverawards.com/wp-content/uploads/2008/11/intouchweeklyjenniferanistoncoverawardsmarkpasetsky.jpg
i don’t think this story is true..they just want to sell their magazin that’s all..shame on you us weekly!!!
OH, SHITE! THIS WEEK’S A FCUKING TABLOID REPORT GOLDMINE!
Star couldn’t rise above the fray either…
“FURIOUS BRAD: SHUT UP, JEN!” (I echo the sentiment, Bradley…)
- “The call Angie FORCED him to make” (Yeah, Angie had to force him to use the phone because before that he was planning on using one of their planes to go Hiroshima on X’s old ass…)
- “Jen warns: He’ll dump you too!” (Angie fires back, “Yeah, but only off his lap after I’ve fcuked him silly!”
- FINALLY REVEALED: The REAL reason Jen wouldn’t have Brad’s Baby” (Uh, cuz she’s a fcuking moron?)
We don’t know these people. I use to really like Brad just until last wk. Its obvious Brad did not want Jen to hear this or he would have told Jen himself. But now I know nothing b/c I don’t even know Brad anymore. I don’t care if Angie and Brad are together. I just feel things should be left unsaid.
It doesn’t mean jen isn’t over Brad of she is, Jen moved on a long time ago. You make like divorcing someone is easy. Jen did have a hard time.
Everyone’s angry at Jen for saying Angie is (uncool) with things she has said, god Jen is awfully polite to Angie and Brad..
I wish Jen nothing but Happiness with John they seem very serious I hope she gets everything she deserves. PEACE EVERYONE!!
BTW - Only OK and the NE didn’t slap the X farce on the cover. OK is still riding the Obama train, and NE says Mel is getting a divorce for his mistress. They say his wife finally had enough. First of all…Mel ain’t getting a divorce. Mel doesn’t believe in divorce. Secondly…Mel is keeping his money. The Mrs. will stay the Mrs. and the new tart will go the way of all the others - out the back door with a hefty settlement… After nearly 20 years…hasn’t the NE learned ANYTHING about Mel? Sheesh…
LOL at Maniston
Maniston looks like Dustin Hoffman
just for laugh @ 11/18/2008 at 4:05 pm
Dear Ted:
Why do people call Jennifer Aniston “Maniston”? At first I thought it was because she was dating John Mayer. But they broke up and I kept seeing her referred to as Maniston. Is it because she kind of looks like a man? I mean, she makes herself kind of cute but it isn’t a great face.
—Alex
Dear Mangina:
On the nose. But there are oodles better nicknames to describe Jen. Whiniston would be my pick.
I love angelina and think aniston is vile
# 56 lips1ut @ 11/19/2008 at 11:40 am I DONT THINK THOSE ARE LIES, JOLIE IS A S1UT so that’s probably is normal to her, seducing married man by being naked on set and talking behind ppl’s back and cover her b*tchiness by ADOPTING and FAKECRYING during interview, talking bout her mother. WHAT A F**KING SL*T WH*RE
I BET SHE’S F**KING THE MOVIE PRODUCERS FOR HER NEXT PROJECT (IM THINKING AN O RGY WITH HER AND AT LEAST 10 OLDER GUYS).. WHAT A F**KING WH00RE
——————————————————-
I’m not getting into all of that, if she did get naked fine, but thats not all it is . I believe angie is psychotic and know what to say and how to play the game real well.. Well they think there the best. But I don’t like either anymore.. I also feel sorry for Brads really nice parents what Angie puts them through i think she also wants to drive a wedge between son and parents..
deana @ 11/19/2008
I SECOND THAT!
The magazines are just printing this because it sells. Who cares.
Brad and Angelina have a zillion kids, we know all about breast
feeding, that they pee and that why they look so tired but it is
just wonderful. It was silly of Angelina to take about when they
fell in love, totally uncalled for but saying the it was uncool was
hardly a big smear. They have brought Jen up several times
but who cares. If they are happy and Jen looks happy, healthy
and is going with John why even keep bringing it up. She is dating
and seems to have moved on, like she said it’s been a 100 yrs
and it is the same old crap over and over. For some reason
people just can’t let it go. Jen doesn’t have to get married just
to stop it . It has been years and it is the same thing over and
over. It is way past time to stop.
TEAM JOLIE!!!!!!!!!!!
Can’t wait to get 1 copy of this magazine . Well done, Jen !
I AM A TROLL WHO POSTS CRAP
I would personally love to torture every freaking tabloid editor who keeps this damn triangle going.
Four years already and they’re still milking it for all they are worth.
This sh*t was old three years ago. Enough is enough. I’m off this thread.
(To edith @ 11/19/2008 at 11:16 am : Smart move on Vogue. I cancelled my subscription two weeks ago.)
Why would you want to buy a copy of this magazine if you’re a fan of jen’s - they made her look like Dustin Hoffman Tootsie on the cover, and they give Angelina all the power. LOLOL
If anything, this continues to mythologize Angelina as this sexy hot magical seductive wonder woman, and reduces Aniston to the big fat zero that she actually is (as low ratings for her Oprah show, and 30 Rock attest).
Vogue was smart to put Angelina on Aniston’s Vogue cover too.
They know what we all know - including Aniston and her PR machine. Aniston is talked about and still relevant only because of ‘Brangelina.’
Going back to the Brad/Oprah thread.
No one seems to be posting here. Oh, Cliniqua said it already - see ya. Don’t post here. Go to the Brad Oprah thread. That’s where everybody is.
i am so ugly that no one will enen look at me, that’s why i hate the beautiful angelina, i am very jealous of her
viewers @ 11/19/2008 at 11:52 am Can’t wait to get 1 copy of this magazine . Well done, Jen !
Well done? Why Jen is a victim. She wanted to be looked as a new independent woman. Yet all these tabs show that Angelina can just wink and Ansiton starts whining.
Welcome back to the triangle Jen. You are the one that showed the media that what Brad and Angelina does still interest and still bothers you. Wrong move.
i wish aniston would admit she is a vile man
# 59 deana @ 11/19/2008 at 11:46 am I love angelina and think aniston is vile
I didn’t write that moron its the other way around. Brad and angie are both vile.

Yeah Jill you just can’t help yourself. Either you’ll be honest under your on name or use another you are obsessed with Angie but not Brad..
Just Jared is a Jolie/Pitt love machine.He posts Jennifer stuff to get the haters to give him hits.My advice..stay off of it!!! You will never read a positive article about Jennifer on there…the freaks take over that site..he himself calls them Jolie/Pitt freaks …from what I’ve read on other sites if you write a nice Jennifer comment on JJ..it gets tagged and it is deleted…reporting what I’ve just heard!Also he himself will take a positive article about Jennifer from another site and reword it so it becomes negative!For example the Parade article where Jennifer was one of the top ten movie stars by their fans..he didn’t mention her at all…stuck with his favs!!!
and I also noticed that the most freguently attacked person is JEN and Suri and her whole family!!!!
I think we all know why!
i doubt very much tht angie wud get naked to get brad to fall in love wit her
brads frend has sed in an interveiw that he (brad) stopped lovin jen after 6 weeks of marriage
ok people you need to get a life it has been 4 years already.
it even a part of this was true it would have been printed 4 years ago.

======================================================
Good point Jill– ENOUGH IS ENOUGH. Over four years, 6 children and a beautifu/commiteed love relationship and people are still bringing this useless/unnecessary triangle. THAT IS OVER!!!!! Only serves tabloids to make more money on gossip and lies.
People… MOVE ON. Angie and Brad are strong and raising a family– let the triangle go!!! IGNORE, IGNORE TABLOIDS AND GOSSIP. Just like Angie and Brad are doing.
I subscribe to US weekly so I will read it , you just cannot believe everything you hear or read. I am tired of this whole triangle but as long as they keep it going I guess I will voice my opinion. I am not sure if Jen is over Brad but I know I am! Angie and Brad have 6 kids together……one day she will have to get over him! I think Angelina is beautiful but other than that I do not see anything great about her. She & Brad are not raising those kids alone. They have alot of help. It is the Mother’s and Father’s outside of Hollywood who raise kids on thier own with no nannies who are great. I am still a Jen fan! I would whine too if I were Jen.
i love angelina and brad and wish aniston would go away already
#62
Sammy, please give me the several instances that Angie has mentioned Jen, better known as “the fraud”. I will give you a head start, Angie’s Jan 2007 Vogue. Now please give me the others. As for Brad, he did it once last year in his V magazine interview, and by default, on Larry King. So, knock yourself out finding the others.
# 8 mimi @ 11/19/2008 at 10:45 am
Angelina looked sooo much better at the time of that pic….WHAT happened to her?!
I didn’t think so look her whole body up she was a 90lbs wet.. Her body was horrible. I actually thought she wasn’t gonna make it. Although i don’t like her, i was praying for her..
TABLOIDS = LIES
TABLOIDS= SELLS ON IGNORANCE
TABLOIDS= GOSSIP/GARBAGE
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! MAKE A CHANGE AND WORRY ABOUT REAL ISSUES.
Brad and Angie are happy, in love and raising such a beautiful family– leave them alone.
Honestly, I think Jennifer is much prettier than Jolie. All those tatoos! YUCK! I think she prob. did throw herself at Brad, what comes around, goes around.
What a wicked post, JJ. This thread will go on and on and on and on, endlessly.
And the funny thing is, the fuss is about a piece of garbage published by US Weekly. Not exactly CNN, guys. As Angelina herself once said, 95% of what is written (by the likes of US Weekly) is completely false. They are the ones who refuse to move on, simply because they sell more and more magazines every time this story is revisited.
i am an undercover troll
jen looks happy with her man and angelina does too so just drop it.
ENOUGH IS ENOUGH!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
MAKE A CHANGE AND WORRY ABOUT REAL ISSUES.

# 56 lips1ut
Jeeezz HAGS .. BRAD DUMPED HIS STUPID WIFE …coz if Brad stayed with her a little longer BRAD would be a fuc*king nutcase, basket case ..mental case by now LOL.
JENHAGS are a good example of a mental case. B*tches really lost their marbles seeing Angelina happy with Brad . YES Angie talk more about what a good partner and father brad pitt is and how brad love you very much. That will guarantee to make the JENHAGS head explode….whaahahahahha!!!!
I am a troll and i love to post crap. TEAM JOLIE!!!!!!
brad should just say something so they wont be fighting, but obiously he likes it.
ANGELINA LOOKS SO UGLY.OOOHHH
TEAM ANISTON!!!
Here we go again you trolls. I couldn’t care less about Angie reproducing illigitimately, Brad and his stupid aging face, or Jenn and her saggy boobs.
The only reason why US would print a headline like this is because the economy sucks and magazine sales are severely down like all sales.
The rag mag knows you trolls will eat this up and purchase numerous copies of such a rag mag. Once again you are played for a fool. Instead of looking in the mirror at your own ugly and non-existent selves you choose to buy into this trash to live through some super rich good looking celebrities who would laugh at you if they saw how ugly and non-existent you are.

i wish i was as pretty as angelina
For the love of God!!. This trashy magazine is the worst of all.
Stop with this already. I don´t care about the horse face.
Angie is a mother, respect her.
It´s so funny…this is the only thing that sells….
And please…angrelina looks awful…that´s one of the worst pics of her…i don´t like her but she is not that ugly…maybe she is…who cares???
LOVE YOU JEN!!!
I AM AN UGLY TROLL
“LOVE IS LOVE”

jennifer get over yourself..angelina can share anything about how she and brad fell in love…on the set why does this make her “uncool” its been 3 years who cares…get over it obviuosly brad’s over her! angelina shouldnt walk around egg shells with jennifer when it comes to her realationship with brad and how they fell in love with each other it takes 2 people…obviously brad wasn’t happy if he fell for another women…they obviuosly had problems she shouldnt blame angelina its jennifer’s fault she didnt know how to keep him and brad could have said no…but he didnt…you cant steal something that never belonged to you…she has no right to be furious about this get over it she is so self centered and really i dont think angelina cares she has bigger priorities like her family and the world she tries to save seriously what does jennifer do????? jennifer is so ugly and plain looking no wonder brad fell for the exotic beauty angelina.
I don´t believe in any of this…but it´s funny to read all this angrelina fans so MAD!!!!
Looking amazing JEN!!!!
what she says behind jen’s back? - “jen.. who?”
#99 - OHH someone write on my Name “Si”…i´m so hurt… :(
ahahahahah
I love Brad, I love Angelina, I love their six adorable children–I wish them love and happiness forever!
i am actually upset u guys. i am leaving now, bye!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
Fortunately Angie does not need to torture Jenn. Her loser boy toy John is much more knowledgeable and skilled in the torture arena. And Jenn seems to enjoy it since she roped him back into her life!
WOW what o load of lies. US mag is really just a rag. No substance. And the best part is the jolie-pitts don’t read the rag. They have no time since they have 6 lovely children running around.
Have to say once again Angie looks great on the cover. Jen not so much. But then this is how Jen ALWAYS looks.
Good thing AJ never reads this “US” trash. Stay cool Angie!!!
AGREE, ” SPICYLILY THAILAND “,…..AND ” LUCKYL”……….ENOUGH IS ENOUGH , PLEASE……Like i would really believe ANYTHING that US magazine published or any other tabloid magazine………Let’s get over the last 4 years ( feels like 50 years ), and move on to other interesting and trashy stories..LOL……….
All of this started when poor old Jennifer lost John Mayer the first time…She is lonely and depressed, so she drags up her past with Brad, for what reason?…….To maintain the headlines again, after the birth of the twins?……….Move on Jennifer, and find some love OR peace with youself OR someone, and leave Brad and Angie alone !!

Angelina is a class act. She doesn’t need to torture anyone. However, I totally can see Jen spreading this rumor. Right up Aniston’s alley. You know play that victim card Jenn. We get it . You are a poor helpless soul tortured by you X and his true love. I THINK I WILL GAG NOW!! JENN MAKES ME SICK !!!! GET A LIFE JEN AND STOP THE RUMORS.
BTW, Angie looks so great on the cover.
I heard from an insider on the mag that Jennifer was in on this cover story. Jen knew it was coming out and did not deny ANY of the quotes or info given to her. Jen is guilty by association for spreading lies and gossip like this, in order to make herself look good and Angie horrible.
Jen is so pathetic!!!
Great picture Jennifer.!!! HAHAHAHAHA
Jen never looked so good.HAHAHAHAHA
Jennifer is looking OLD!
What is Jen 50 years old now??
Angie, looking GOOD!!!
TEAM JOLIE!!
I AM STUPID, YEAH STUPE
Angelina looks so much better than Jennifer.
Jennifer Aniston is a sad, depressing, desperate loser who needs a new life. She says she’s over what happened years ago. Yet she still comments about how much it hurts to hear about Brad and Angelinas Love.
If you are so focused on your life why comment on others. Serioursly….Get is together Jennifer!!!!
I SEE THE MEDIA MAKING UP THESE STORYLINES AGAIN .. IT WOULD BE FUN TO HAVE ANGIE AND JEN MEET FOR LUNCH
WITH BRAD.. AND SHOW THE PUBLIC THAT NOTHING IS GOING
ON BETWEEN ANY OF THEM.. NEVER WILL.. JUST LIKE A ROD
NOTHING IS GOING ON WITH HIM AND MADONNA BUT HE CAN’T
BE SEEN WITH ANYONE WITHOUT SOME SPY ON HIM.. WHEN
HE IS SINGLE MAN WHO CAN DATE ANYONE WHEN IS THE CRAP
GOING TO END.!! NEVER.. NEXT WEEK BLAME JEN FOR ANGIE’S
MISCARRIAGE.. BRAD IS FURIOUS.. NEVER TALKS TO JEN AGAIN
WHEN JEN HAS NOTHING TO DO WITH ANY OF THIS CRAP
MEDIA NEEDS TO START OVER WITH SOMEONE ELSE STOP
TARGETING JEN …SHE HAS DONE NOTHING .. OR DOES SHE
NEED TO GET A LIFE.. IT IS LIKE WHAT SHE SAID TO OPRAH
IT WAS 100 YEARS AGO AND SHE HAS MOVED ON BUT THE
MEDIA WONT FOREVER RIGHT!
Ha! This is hilarious. Truthfully, how Angelina “tortures” Jen is just by being happy. I’m sure it does suck for Jen, and in her place, I would likely be bitter too. But seriously, learn to hide the bitterness in public at least. Otherwise you end up with hilariously pathetic covers like this, where they choose hot, devious pictures of Angelina and sadsack, plain jane pics of Jen, and make her look still hung up on a relationship that ended 4 years ago.
I actually don’t think Angelina fans should even be upset over this cover. It essentially makes a mockery of Jen’s Vogue interview. It takes that poor me statement to the max and shows it for the ridiculously pathetic moment that it was.
WHY????? Jared have you put this foolishness on an Angie thread. This is getting pretty tiring. Brad and Angie are a great family . JA is happy with JM, or so they want us to believe, so let’s believe it and move on. God Bless the JP’s.
mary @ 11/19/2008 at 12:34 pm brad should just say something so they wont be fighting, but obiously he likes it.
=========================================
Uh, NO. Brad saying anything only gives Jen exactly what she wants, PR. He makes amends, and it’s “Angelina fumes as Brad sides with Jen!” He defends Angelina, and it’s “Angelina FORCES Brad to speak out!” The best thing for Angelina and Brad to do is to not acknowledge Jen in ANY way.
You have Angelina pegged -100%. Once a *****, always a *****. Absolutely psycho!
Here we go again.
Poor Jennifer didn’t realize her one comment would breath fresh air into the greedy tabloids.. they all jumped with glee that she said “uncool”.. now they will milk the invisible non existent triangle for anther year or two with one false story after another.
All you feeble minded idiots who will fork out millions for stories based on unnamed inside sources (the writers and the editor standing around the water cooler more like it) need a serious wake up call.
Can they all just go out for dinner together already? Jen and John and Brad and Angie.. laughing and drinking and having a great time.. that would make the tabloid heads explode and put an end to it all already!
Geesh!
Jennifer doesn’t want Brad back.
Brad doesn’t want Jennifer back.
Angelina isn’t angry at Jennifer.
Good lord.. anyone with half a brain can look at the actual peoples statements and realize this is all tabloid feed nonsense.
Jennifer talks to Brad
Angelina talks to Johnny Lee Miller and Billy Bob.
No one gives a **** if their partner talks to ex’s.
Everyone is better off where they are now then where they were.
Everyone is over it.
Everyone wished the other well.
ENOUGH!!
Jennifer called Jolie uncool BIG FN deal. It was her marriage she can feel it was uncool.. its not a declaration of war.
Brad and Angelina do not read tabloids so I would imagine they do not give a flying F what is on the cover of Life & Style or InTouch.
If anything Jen is probably embarrassed that something she said has been used to make money for these sleazy tabloids.
It will never end unless people stop buying the craptastic things. Just don’t buy crap.. make the world a better place.
US Weekly….come on!!! This magazine is the NEW National Enquirer—just trash! This mag is constantly fabricating stories that they might as well call themselves the WORLD NEWS and start reporting on Aliens and Elvis sightings.
US Weekly is constantly using the Jen v Angie drama to sell their rag-so old news. Me thinks this magazine is just p’d off because PEOPLE keeps getting all “firsts” lately.
Don’t bother reading a trash like US WEEKLY. Just go onto their website and read the comments posted by the idiots who get all worked up. It’s disgusting.
I hate UsMagazine.
OLD news, Us!!!
oh, and i love the “refuses to blame Brad for her pain” part? i’m sorry, did she blame AJ at some point? …don’t recall that!
And what pain? ‘cmon, the woman has moved on!!
Hell, everybody has moved on!!!
I know it’s to sell a cover, but let’s be a teeeeeeny bit realistic. Like, I’m sure a mother of 6 has the time. When there’s nothing dirty there …. reporters have to keep their job someway right?
Sorry but Brad is the one who got naked but of course Usweekly viewers only BLAME ANGELINA. The cover is exactly how the viewers or posters on their site think.
LMAO. Listen.. That marriage should have NEVER happened, Brad’s only mistake was to marry that square, boring, talentless, D-lister cow. Period.
He’s wisen up and found his soul-mate who happens to be one of the smartest, sexiest, most humanistic women in this planet: Angelina Jolie.
Good luck to Brad and Angelina and their family.
Awww come on Jared, are you serious re this thread???
OK, I’d love to torture that talentless, jealous, whining, lying twit myself…Yo X and her hens..here is a wonderful new video re the JP’s..
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=L67PtbqrPHc
haha, you is stupid **** the **** up. You can’t be prettier than her that’s why you are so jealous. Just shut the **** up, stupid bit.
haha, you are stupid and ugly I bet. Just **** the **** up you foolish *****.
#123, I’m with you!! I can’t believe how horrible people on this site are and how they can be so cruel to Jennifer Aniston. I’m not now nor have I ever been a fan of hers, but seriously do any of these Brangelina cult members ever think of how hard it must have been for her when Brad left her for a w-h-o-r-e trainwreck like Angelina? Jennifer and Brad loved each other so much to get married and Brad f-u-c-k-e-d it up to be with a piece of common trash homewrecker who’s got more daddy issues than Parenting magazine. I for one agree that Jennifer needs to move on, but how can she when tabloid rags like Us Weekly keeping creating magazines like this one? Don’t you think she sees them when she goes out? It’s hurtful. Also, I have a newsflash for Brangelina fans: ONCE A CHEATER ALWAYS A CHEATER!! and Brad will do the same thing to Angelina as soon as he loses interest in her like he did with Jennifer. These two aren’t soulmates, their selfish jerks who will get their comeuppance.
haha, you is so stupid and foolish. Just **** the hell up. So if people like her. your quote sound so ******* stupid, I guess that’s how you are.
LOL
…`jared’s scared of the loonies.. and he ;should be.
# 10 andamentothat @ 11/19/2008 at 10:46 am
Jared you are too funny.. what kind of $hit is this.. Ange did no such thing and Jen knows it.. and Us is just sensationalizing BS.. I love the pics they used.. Beauty vs Beast
+++++++++++++++++++++
If you think US has gone the sensationalized route this week..get a load of what the Star is claiming…they’re calling Brad a serial cheater and say that’s why X wouldn’t have kids with him. BBBWWWHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA! If he was cheating at least it was with the opposite sex and not the same sex like she did!
http://idontlikeyouinthatway.com/2008/11/brad-pitt-wants-jennifer-aniston-to-shut-up.html
Finally the media picks up on this! We’ve been talking about it for years. I wonder if they mention she did the exact same thing to Antonio Banderas only he didn’t fall for it.
Once a cheater always a cheater! DUH. That marriage should have NEVER happened. I was against from the 1st day Brad married that boring Chinnefer. So, in my eyes, the only cheater is Chinnefer Maniston who tricked Brad into marrying her. Got it? Or r u as dim as your idol??
YES, FANS DO NOT POST HERE!
GO TO THE ANISTON THREAD SO WE CAN OBSESS AND HATE ON HER WHILE EVEYONE ELSE CAN TALK ABOUT WHAT A ***** THE WHOLE WORLD KNOWS ANGIE IS!
Great new video re Papa Pitt with their kids :-)
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=RsJVNoP-B2w
This is new news?
The whole world knows Angelina is a slutt.
How did she torture her?
Did she force her to watch her crappy acting in Changeling?
bwhahahahahahahahaha
# 102 SI @ 11/19/2008 at 12:43 pm
I don´t believe in any of this…but it´s funny to read all this angrelina fans so MAD!!!!
Looking amazing JEN!!!!
++++++++++++++++++
I see you’re as dumb as your idol. The J-P fans are “mad” because the tabs won’t let sleeping fugs lie. Brad dumped X. He’s with Angie now and they have 6 kids. Beyond that - why bother slapping new lies about something that happened 4 years ago on the cover? Oh…cuz dumbfuck Fanistons will shell out $4 to read anything that puts Angie in a bad light. Cha-ching! Obviously the “in vitro” cover sold well, so they’ll slap more Angie lies on their cover and sell a ton more mags. Then next week they’ll have the gall to come back with a “FAKE NEWS” section about the OTHER rags and call them out on their bullshit. Janice Min has got cajones bigger than X’s faux boyfriend’s big ass head.
BTW - if that’s a picture of X looking “amazing”…then every farmer in the country is going to want a lifesize copy they can put in their cornfields to replace their scarecrows…
CLOONIQUA MELTDOWN!!!!!
HEY CLOONIQUA, WHY DON’T YOU GO BACK OVER TO THE USMAG THREAD AND WRITE MORE DISGUSTING FANFIC ABOUT COCO COX GETTING RAPED YOU SICK ******?
The tabloids lied but I like the pictures though. God bless the Jolie-Pitt’s.
# 124 geesh @ 11/19/2008 at 1:46 pm
Here we go again.
Poor Jennifer didn’t realize her one comment would breath fresh air into the greedy tabloids.. they all jumped with glee that she said “uncool”.. now they will milk the invisible non existent triangle for anther year or two with one false story after another.
+++++++++++++++++++
Pfffffft. Of course X knew her comment was going to dredge it all up again. As I said the other day - she did it deliberately. Otherwise she’d have used the right verb to express her disgust in what Angelina SAID, not “did”. You can bet your ass that X and Huvane planned the whole thing down to the wistful look on X’s fug face as she said it. X knows that Angie will get bashed by the tabs and she’ll be given a free ride as the victim - the eternal victim. It’s win-win for her. Angie gets mauled by the likes of Min, X gets a pat on the shoulder and a Kleenex and a chorus of “Rah, rah, we love you Jen!” from her Fanistons. She is the Queen of Passive Agressiveness. Never under-estimate the depths to which this fameho will sink to keep herself in the spotlight.
If anyone is tortured, it’s the mother of six children in the span of three years.
Jennifer Aniston is her own person, and I can’t imagine she was ever tortured; however, she was disappointed by the lack of ethics involved on behalf of her husband and his film paramour.
# 135 Um @ 11/19/2008 at 2:31 pm
Since you’re claiming to not be a “fan” of any of the 3 - why the hell are you here?
Secondly - since you don’t know anything about any of it - why are you giving your opinion?
Last, since you don’t know anything, then you’re obviously unaware of all the crap X put Brad through when they were married. All the lies, cheating. manipulating and conniving. The marriage was over long before Angie ever came into the picture. So STFU and go back to picking your nose and your ass.
LOL TO JEN AND ANGIE, BUT ANGIE NEEDS TO STOP GLOATING ALREADY AND GROW THE **** UP. JEN WAS ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT ANGIE, (SHE WILL ALWAYS BE ASKED QUESTIONS ABOUT ANGIE AS LONG AS SHE’S IN THE BIZ) AND SHE SAID SHE WAS ‘UNCOOL’. ANY WOMAN THAT SEDUCES A MARRIED MAN IS A HUSSY! JEN HAS MOVED ON SHE JUST WANTS CLOSURE AND CALLING ANGIE OUT FOR HER ACTIONS. BEST WISHES JEN!!!!
Don’t worry about it Jared. Finally, the truth about Angelina comes out. If the Angelina lovers fled,(Clooniqua), we Antis would keep you in buisness. They’d come here in droves. There are more of us anyways. LOL
Yes, maybe Jennifer will tell us more. I would love to know more dirt on the HO and her cheating sidekick. It’s about time the Ho gets put in her place.
Cliniqua losing it.over a tabloid story…..priceless! That chick isn’t wired right..
Jared, Please leave the trashy tabloids news to troll sites. You as well as most people know their news are fabbricated in order to sell and stir controversy , So why would you buy into their game ?.
Here are some important reminders about trolls (just google the word ) : Internet trolls try to spin conflicting information, , flame discussion, insult people, turn people against each other, harass forum members, ignore warnings from forum moderators (if there are any!)
Trolling is a form of harassment that can take over a discussion. Well meaning defenders can create chaos by responding to trolls. The best response is to ignore it, or to report a message to a forum moderator. Next time you are on a message board and you see a post by somebody whom you think is a troll, and you feel you must reply, simply write a follow-up message entitled “Troll Alert” and type only this:
“The only way to deal with trolls is to limit your reaction and not to respond to trolling messages.”
Trolls are utterly impervious to criticism (constructive or otherwise). You cannot negotiate with them; you cannot cause them to feel shame or compassion; you cannot reason with them. They cannot be made to feel remorse. trolls do not feel they are bound by the rules of courtesy or social responsibility.Another problem is that the negative emotions stirred up by trolls leak over into other discussions.
Some people — particularly those who have been online for years — know not to respond to trolls and consider them an inevitable hazard of using the net. As the saying goes, “You can’t have a picnic without ants.”
So trolls are are not unlike the hackers who spread viruses through computer programming and creat havoc in computers, their intent is : to spread viruses with words and play with the emotions of those who take their bait.
If you REALLY thing that Angie is gonna be upset about thing like this, you need to read all the s hit that was around the web 4 years ago.
90% of the media and blogs were CRUCIFYNG her.
It was disturbing and sad.
And she is here, she is with Brad, her kids and her 1 million dollar box office.
I am here too, 4 years later , being her fan, supporting her like many, many more people out there.
On the other hand, let’s focus on the upcoming event.
PAX BIRTHDAY on Nov. 29
BRAD BIRTHDAY on Dec.4
Let’s celebrate it & can’t we get along Please?
God bless the Jolie-Pitt’s.
I’m curious, fans, since you insist that Jen intended her “uncool” comment to “dredge it all up again”, how you can ignore Angie’s recent “we fell in love while doing Mr. & Mrs. Smith” revelation? What, in your opinion, was Angie’s purpose in bringing it up all these years later? In all fairness…isn’t she the one who actually…well…dredged it all up again?
You asked what happened to SKANKIE!! Well, for one she is a herion addict and always will be!! Doesn’t matter how well you dress her, she will always be the ***** that she is!! Sad but true!!
Cassie @ 11/19/2008 at 3:31 pm
If anyone is tortured, it’s the mother of six children in the span of three years.
_________________________________________
A mother of six kids is tortured? And what if said mother had her six kids as two sets of triplets in the span of TWO YEARS! What would you say about that, ya dumb fcukin ho.
Just how far over are you willing to bend for a whinny, worthless, movie-star wannabe excuse of a woman, just so that she can ram that rod of hypocrisy and pretentiousness up yours?
You stupid twits who come here defending the biggest famewh8re in HW at the expense of a dedicated, loving mother and internationally respected humanitarian, who also just happens to be the very highly acclaimed movie star actress, rated equally by her peers as well as stalwarts in the biz. What part of that do you not understand?
if you want to lick ****-ton’s azz, by all means, knock yourself out. But dont think you can come on this particularly site and not expect to be told that youre full of sh*t.
Now fcuk off and crawl back under ****-ton’s azz.
Carry on.
omg , angelina is a real ***** , i knew she was bad person but this is so bad , very very bad
I hope that this will prevent people from hurting Aniston feelings more by their trash talk and stop and think if something like this happens to them , I don’t know why are there those people who have no heart .
why even believe that ****
Isn’t jolie supposed to be a good-will ambassador? Doesn’t sound like good will to me. I’m glad she wasn’t made an ambassador of peace like Charlize Theron & George Clooney. They don’t intentionally try to hurt people.
Just Jared… the only reason i visit your site because of what Anglina has become in recent years as a human being. I can honestly say I don’t pay attention to celebrity but for whatever reasons I have seen in Anglina, in spite of being filtered, projected & at times polarized, she posses this raw, authentic, kind quality. Her external beauty is without doubt mesmerizing. However, it’s her internal beauty, substance, depth, passion that is compelling, exquisite & sets her apart from other HW “stars” or whatever crap. Angelina chooses to live her life perspicaciously. If it is part of your business that you have to post tabloid feces then do what you must. Otherwise, there is no need for any tabloid or post on that obtuse, vacuous, inept, homely being named j. annuston or whatever… that thing is so very inessential… & come on… enough with the ludicrous, incessant rants on this triangle… there is none. Brad Pitt redeems himself with Angelina & their kids… this is his life, love & he is “impervious” to anything, particular THAT THING…
JOLIE-PITTS FANS = PSYCHO
There is no beef, stop feeding the media. Both Jen and Angelina are beautiful. I wonder what Angelina Jolie would think of the garbage that you people typre on here. Disgrace…
It’s probably a good idea for angie to retire. She has children to take care of & breastfeed. She’s not greedy like some other people.

WTF!! Jared!! If JP Fans wanted to read US we would go there to read the tab bull. For the JP Fans who have been coming here for 4 yrs giving you hits you don’t give a flying fuuck do you?
Don’t shoot the messanger ! What kind of crap is that!!!
Man US must pay you alot of money that you do not care about pitting the fans against one another
You can stick this thread where the sun don’t shine!
Just remember our loyalty to you. There are days when we dont have much time but will always slip in to give you a hit even whe we have very little to say as well as our time.
This is total tab bullshhit and you know it.
I am out of here.
ROTFLMAO!

Ok, we all know that the Jolie fans are loonies and #86 just PROVED it. Used my name……….honey, I think you must be in what 2nd or 4th grade??? Lordy Beeeee! Then someone used ‘SI’, another loonie or are you the same person. Grrrrrr……….I wish these school teachers would keep thier students off the interent during the day! That is really sick. I speak my mind and would never use another person’s name to post under. Get help soon please!
And they say Jen fans are loonies (rolling my eyes here)
Jen Jen rocks Jolie is a tart *****!! She is so sneeky saying one thing meaning another to bite Jen in the ass. Jolie is pure evil. She is such a horrible cow. She is the girl that will STAB U IN THE BACK WITH A SMILE ON HER FACE!!!!!
Jolie is HORRIBLE and nasty cow!!!
Jolie tries to get a dig in at Jen always and always twist everything.
My guess at what’s torturing Jen is all these f@cking magazine covers!!! How can she move on if they won’t let her?
Once again, Jennifer Aniston and Stephen Huvane have conjoured up a story to try and attempt to keep Jennifer in the spotlight. Jennifer continous to ride out her long ago marriage to Brad Pitt to keep herself alive in the tabloids. How long will this continue to go on until she and Huvan finally realize that she is nothing but a D list actress and NOBODY in HOLLYWOOD respects this woman nor even acknowledges her presence. They are desperate to keep her in the limelight because she is on borrowed time. SHE WILL be 40 years old. Huvan will moved on to younger and better actresses and Jennifer will never have the relationship she fabricated in the media of the so called “golden couple” with anyone else. NOT EVER. The public has been long deceived by this NO TALENT NOBODY. ANISTON fans wake up and smell the coffee. She is not who you think nor what Huvane led you to believe. It is a well know fact that JENNIFER has a cocaine addiction. But to keep the girl next door image, her PR team continues to put out these ridiculous triangle stories involving PITT and JOLIE. Because they know it is only a matter of time before the real story comes out.
jolie is done @ 11/19/2008 at 4:27 pm

You have a basic problem. You can’t read. And what you read you don’t comprehend.
Angelina Jolie has never made any of the alleged “admissions” you contend she has about either drugs or a “mental institution.” If you have the quotes from a reputable publication then post them here.
You need to put the tabloids down and learn to distinguish between trash and news. You can’t even distinguish between the employees of a rented property and the personal employees of a family.
You also know nothing of Angelina Jolie’s reputation in Hollywood or anywhere else for that matter. She remains well liked and respected among those who actually know her rather than those like you who merely fantasize about her.
Silly girl, you need to look in the mirror and play armchair shrink on yourself.
What’s the matter? Are you troubled by withdrawal pains from your addiction to freak sites like MediaLady? Transference is a common afflication for your ilk.
It is amazing how Angelina Jolie’s great life and accomplishments simply make heads explode in jealousy and bitterness. This female on female hate is nothing new and yet it always startles me. Why do some women experience pleasure and pride in the success and good fortune of other women and then other women cannot spend enough time or stoop low enough in trying to tear these successful women down? Sad. Just sad.
The sick world of tabloids….
gojennifergo @ 11/19/2008 at 3:40 pm Yes, maybe Jennifer will tell us more. I would love to know more dirt . . .
##########
Yea, Jenifer, I want to hear more, too.
Tell us about your abortions while married to Brad.
Don’t leave out your affairs while married to Brad.
Oh, yea, and we need the details on how you surprise-dumped your fiance when you slept with Brad Pitt on your first publicist arranged date with him and started living with him the second day you knew Brad.
Spill, girlfriend, did you concoct that spider web yourself or did your publicist give you the Let’s Trap Brad Game Plan.
Poor, poor Jen, the architect of her own torture chamber. Karma is a b1tch, ain’t it babe?
mimi @ 11/19/2008 at 10:45 am
You are a freakinf leach for continuously using my name on Angie’s blog and as maniston fan. Get your own name you ******* ass hole.
angelina sucks
I just hope this is true. Jennifer deserves nothing less.
If the good man I loved had been treated as badly by his ex as Brad was. If my childrens’s wonderful father had been deceived and abused by his ex the way Brad was. I would also be planning torture for the b1tch.
Go Jolie. Torture is too good for women who tricked men into marriage and then spend years making fools of them.
Angie is gorgeous as always even though i don’t usually read Ok, I’m glad they agree that Angie is better looking than maniston.
LOL! Who writes this stuff and WHY in the world would anyone believe it?
“whenever Valley Girls comes up in conversation”.. when the hell does that ever happen in real life coversations?
“refused to wear flesh colored underwear in bed for the sex scene”.. that was the rumor about Jolie and Antonio in Original Sin.. Brad and Jolie got in on in the hallway, den, living room, dining room and kitchen in Mr & Mrs Smith’s big sex scene.. the Bodega scene they didn’t film a sex scene in bed..just a wake up scene where she was alone. They need to do better research for their lies..too easily disproved.
Angelina is UGLY. Her body looks like an 80 yr old woman. Check out her hands and knobby knees. The only reason Brad is with her because he fell in love with the fact she had a little kid!!!!!!!!! He wanted kids, made no bones about it and Jen’s only mistake was that she put it off tooooo long.
ivermom @ 11/19/2008 at 12:28 pm
i am an undercover troll
We know that so **** off.
This is all bullshit.
And I imagine the only opinion Jolie values or cares about is Brad’s.. who said today on the Oprah show that Jolie was the sweetest, softest person, with the biggest heart. Full of boundless energy and boundless love.
So I would say.. Jennifer and her fans can suck on their bitter lemons till their faces look like Renée Zellweger IF they choose to buy into this absolute ridiculous story packaged to them by a less than reputable entertainment magazine.
Good grief.
I cannot believe that a grown woman with 6 children, a man to satisfy, a career to balance, charities and outreach programs to manage has time to plot a long standing continued harrassment of an ex wife that has no real connection/meaning/relevance to her and her partners everyday exsistance? WTF?!
Funnyman…i must thank you for releasing me from any crush i may have had once on Brad Pitt~! OMG…it’s so TINY! No way he got Angie hot on the set of MAMS by getting naked. Now i’m rethinking possibly believing the many rumors over the years that Brad is BI
The Economic recession mut be killing all this tabloids. digging their gabbage and repeating what they printed 4 yrs ago.
Enough is ehough !
I’m going to make myself a button to wear on my lapel - I SURVIVED WATCHING BRAD PITT ON OKRA!
Damn…for a second there I thought Okra was going to jump Brad and start licking him all over…not that I blame her…
Over all, though, I’m shocked to say that Okra didn’t get on my last nerve..close to it, but not actually ON it…
One thing I didn’t see anyone else mention yet was the part where Cate was making fun of Brad having “work done” on his face…and he took his hands and pulled his face tight like he’d had 3 plastic surgeries too many…a la Joan Rivers…
WHY JARED WHY????????????
YOU KNOW THIS IS BULL**T !!!!

Thank you Us weekly .. my Angie looking sexy and gorgeous as her true self…
thank you Us weekly .. My sister Maniston look as her true self “ME” her brother Fabio…. LOL
I completely agree with NATY at #190…I don’t understand the hardcore love and obsession that a lot of you have for these people. They’re washed up. Angelina is probably the only one that still has relevancy through her humanitarian endeavors…and I think she needs that because she’s definitely not what she once was physically..and that’s what she was known for: looks. She’s losing those at a record speed.
Brad and Jennifer are boring. Brad and Angelina should stop media-who**ing so much and stay private. They’re a bit disgusting with how much they like their media exposure.
All these insults directed at Jennifer Aniston are rather unfair. Both women are good in their own way and both will have their very own faults. Stop making one a villain and the other a saint, because these titles fit neither of the women.
All you have to do is watch the 2004 interview with Jolie on ‘Inside the Actor’s Studio’ where she talks to John Lipton. Find it and/or the transcripts and watch your ‘idol’ Jolie herself discuss how she admitted herself to a mental institution for 4 days, she discussed her avid heroin use and as *SHE* herself says in the interview, “I’ve done every drug out there.” Jolie talks about it all, hthe cutting, the lovers, her fater, her brother - she says it all. Jolie also gushes about Brad Pitt who was married.
You ought bring a box of tissues because you will cry, you clearly don’t have a clue.
Seriously loons, especially if you live in New York, just got there and get a copy of the interview. Though I find it very difficult to believe that you didn’t know these things aobut Jolie. It’s common knowledge, ask that freak Clooniqua, she’ll tell you it’s true.
I bet you idiots think Jolie’s mother is from France too. She’s not, she was born in Chicago, and is of Iroquios Indian and French Canadian heritage.
I used to love Jolie back in the days when she was independent and bi-, even if she was a bit of a nut. The new : “Brandgelina” Jolie is a deliberately cruel and competitive ******. These are in fact her true colors, not the young, wild, independent spirit.
No matter what the marketers tell you, she is NOT sweet and NEITHER a true humanitarian! She is an insecure woman who stole a man to further her career and all the rest of her image that we see now has been the marketers attempt of damage control: to make Jolie still look good after doing husband stealing in broad daylight.
Plus she and Pitt have tortured Aniston every chance they have gotten for four years just to sell movie tickets and to gain more publicity. I hope they both fall flat on the –sses and that Jennifer becomes wildly successful because not many women on this planet could have withstood what she did and still come out fighting, career intact, and looking more gorgeous than ever.
Jennifer is a real life heroine! Go Jen!
I refuse to post at this site. This is tabloid s***.

Cliniqua - what in the world would you do if AJolie and BPitt decided to hide their lives from you and the tabloids - Forever!!! Oh my, what would you do … I’m sure the JoliePitts don’t give a damn about your heroic efforts to stop the posting to this nasty old thread. You are unbelievably way too into the JoliePitts.
I find the campaign against Jennifer Aniston truly incredible. She, of all people, would probably care about your sorry asses. The JoliePitts, on the other hand, would most likely disown you and have a condescending laugh over your adoring behavior.
If you think Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are looking hot (and it shouldn’t matter if they are or are not, but the hateful comments on this site make it difficult to not point out that their idols are looking a little worse for wear) check out these photos - http://thesuperficial.com/2008/11/angelina_jolie_talks_about_the.php
I love and totally agree with the observation on this site, “Can somebody explain to me again why the pedophile p_rn star is trying to molest the wax figure?”
Has anyone noticed that Brad Pitt never looks “Angie” in the eyes. He never really seems comfortable. She seems to have become more adept at making sure she looks at him adoringly. At first it seemed genuine, but it now seems more like her acting abilities combined with photo opportunities and speculation control. Also, Brad Pitt seemed like he forgot his script (or angie’s script) on Oprah, except when he talked about his children. It was nice to see that he can easily and readily talk about his children and show his love for them but beyond that … not so convincing.
Ultimately, does it matter what I think or what Queen/King Cliniqua thinks … No … the speculation is ridiculous.
I hope the JoliePitts and Jennifer Aniston and so on and so forth have love, peace, and fulfillment in their lives.
You poor suckers, Brad is throwing his ****** mistress under the bus just as he did with his wife.
Just watch it happen loons.
You all better start thinking on which side you are on:
Team Jolie or team Pitt ?
The show is on.
Both Angelina and Jennifer are annoying. They are too old and washed up to be on the front page of magazines and gossip sites. Grr!
Who gives a ****? They are both middle aged hags who are bouncing around like they are hot young things when they are clearly past their prime. NEXT!
Let see your IDOL VAJENJEN is with a DOUCHE BAG JOHN MAYER and is being urinated on and **** on everynight. MANISTON IS NOW A LIVING, BREATHING TOILET OF JOHN MAYER ..BWAHAHAHHAHAHHAH!!! KARMA is a *****!!!
jkasdjk @ 11/20/2008 at 2:03 am You poor suckers, Brad is throwing his ****** mistress under the bus just as he did with his wife.
Just watch it happen loons.
You all better start thinking on which side you are on:
Team Jolie or team Pitt ?

Sorry the one Pitt thrown under the bus was Jennifer Aniston see that’s why she’s with the URINATOR .. she lost her A status in HW so what’s the gall got to do to be relevant? Hook up with a famewhore she can control and enjoy his kinkyness on the bed.. what a S L U T!
This whole article is sooo made up. Why would Angie have her revenge on Jen when she doesn´t have any reason for it? Angie is a mature young woman who wouldn´t do anything so stupid as to lower herself into Jen´s level. Besides it´s over four years when Jen and Brad separated. Jen should only blame herself for everything. I have no respect for Jennifer Aniston anymore. Angelina is a much better woman for Brad. In Oprah interview his face lit up every time Angie or the children we re mentioned. His face didn´t lit up so much ever when he was with Jen. He and Angie are meant for each other. Hopefully JA and John Mayer will last so that she gets something else to think about than her revenge to Angie!
Jen doesn’t care about Angie and Brad. Jen looks healthy and happy - Angie on the other hand looks unhealthy and ready for a breakdown. Brad looks worn out just supporting her!
THIS SO OLD ………OH JARED WE’VE BEEN HERE BEFOR………………….US WEEKLY IS A SORRY EXCUSE FOR A MAGAXINE AND THIS THE LAST STRAW……………….ANGIE HAS BETTER THINGS TO DO THAN THINK ABOUT WAYS TO HURT JENX …………IT’S THE OTHER WAY AROUND ……JENX IS OBSESSED WITH BRAD AND ANGIE AND THE TABS ARE HELPING HER CONTINUE THIS BULL ****……………………..WHAT A FRAUD…………………..WAKE UP PEOPLE JENX IS POISON AND SHE WANTS TO INFECT BRAD AND HIS FAMILY……………THIS IS SICK…………….PEACE
Anyone who finds joy and happiness in someones pain is un-evolved. I hope Jen finds a soul mate and Angelina gets help for her mental issues, and that Brad takes ownership in the pain her has caused and makes it right. ; ) That’s simple huh?
Wow…so much hatred for people who do not know you even exist!
It doesnt matter what we think, they will continue to make money and live well.
So I guess we should just let them be.\
No one knows what goes on in their homes but them so please lets not get so nasty!
I AM A TROLL
i hate myself
The Dark Knight’s Aaron Eckhart thinks Angelina Jolie would make a purr-fect Catwoman — if there’s another Batman installment.
“I thought that was a fantastic idea,” Eckhart told Usmagazine.com at the GQ Men of the Year party in L.A. on Nov. 18. “When I read that, I felt like all of our records that we made [would] be broken if she did Catwoman.”
Look back at Angelina Jolie’s famous on-screen roles.
(Julie Newmar, who played Catwoman in the original Batman TV series, recently told New York’s Daily News that she has knowledge that Jolie has inquired about playing the part.)
See Angelina Jolie’s baby photo.
Another name that’s been thrown around? Johnny Depp — as the Riddler.
“Every time I hear these guys, I feel worse about myself!” Eckhart joked.
He was mum when asked if he’d star in another Batman flick.
“I mean, that’s an interesting question,” he told Us. “You know, I don’t think I will. I think I died in the movie.”
Look back at unforgettable moments from The Dark Knight.
But it all remains a mystery.
Eckart joked, “I’m coming back as a totally different character.”
Tell Us: Would Angelina make a good Catwoman?
NO US WEEKLY ARTICLES PLEASE
Jen has much more class than AJ will EVER have!
angelina is so beautiful and classy, jen looks like a tramp
jenho looks like a horse next to angie.
Jolie made Pitt called Jen:
“Angie is so sick and tired of Jen going out of her way to make her and Brad look bad, and she told him he had to call Jen and straighten her out,” an insider tells Star. “So Angie forced Brad to make the unpleasant phone call to Jen. “He went off on her,” reveals a source. Brad was so upset, his voice was quivering, says another insider.”
Why Jennifer did not want to get pregnant:
“In late 2003 — before Brad started filming Mr. and Mrs. Smith with Angie — Brad left Jen behind while he went to a Vanity Fair party in Los Feliz, Calif. But he wasn’t alone for long. A source tells Star that Brad began chatting up a very sexy party planner, and then the two disappeared together. In fact, Jen’s best friend, Courteney Cox, even sent her husband, David Arquette, to look for Brad. When Brad finally came back to the party, “everyone was whispering about what had gone on between him and that girl.” It was whispers like this that made Jen rethink starting a family with Brad, even though he was really pushing for it. “She held off on having kids because she wanted to wait until she was sure Brad wasn’t being unfaithful,” says the source. “But she could never regain that trust, and she just didn’t want to bring a child into that mess.”
There loons!!!
OH GOD!! Tabloids are so ridiculous!
ANGIE IS THE SWEETEST THING EVER- PLEASE!
oh god. more angelina bashing. us weekly sure has a vendetta against her for some reason. they always side with jen and never blame brad for anything. stupid.
oh god. more angelina bashing. us weekly sure has a vendetta against her for some reason. they always side with jen and never blame brad for anything. stupid.

I don’t believe any of it. Anyway I love angies picture…so beautiful

JA at IVY
TRASH MAGAZINE, all I can say.
Just goes to show she is no better than her dad. He was a cheater and she is a ****.
There seems to be a lot more negative press about Angelina lately. They could sue the mag if the stripping on the set story is a lie.
Didn’t some other star sue the tabs and won in the past several years, i wonder why she is getting so hatred directed her way now, four years later?
There is a report breaking tonight that Jolie has a ‘contractual promise’ from Time Inc. to only have positive coverage of her. Anyone still think she’s not a media manipulator? Nice way to keep it real, Ang. That agreement would cover CNN, Time Mag, People Mag and TMZ. who conveniently always portray Jen as a an old desperate whining woman while Jolie is the world’s greatest humanitarian and mother. Is this why Jen is always asked about the divorce while Brad and Angie are never asked. Do Brad and Angie have some sort of agreement where they only have to talk about the work, kids and charity work, things that make them look ‘positive’.
NEW YORK TIMES OUTS JOLIE FOR THE MANIPULATIVE MEDIAHO SHE IS.
Angelina Jolie’s Carefully Orchestrated Image
By BROOKS BARNES
Published: November 20, 2008
LOS ANGELES — When Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt negotiated with People and other celebrity magazines this summer for photos of their newborn twins and an interview, the stars were seeking more than the estimated $14 million they received from the deal. They also wanted a hefty slice of journalistic input — a promise that the winning magazine’s coverage would be positive, not merely in that instance but into the future.
According to the deal offered by Ms. Jolie, the winning magazine was obliged to offer coverage that would not reflect negatively on her or her family, according to two people with knowledge of the bidding who were granted anonymity because the talks were confidential. The deal also asked for an “editorial plan” providing a road map of the layout, these people say.
The winner was People. The resulting package in its Aug. 18 issue — the magazine’s best-selling in seven years — was a publicity coup for Ms. Jolie, the Oscar winner and former Hollywood eccentric who wore a necklace ornamented with dried blood and talked about her fondness for knives before transforming herself into a philanthropist, United Nations good-will ambassador and devoted mother of six.
In the People interview, there were questions about her and Mr. Pitt’s charity work and no use of the word “Brangelina,” the tabloid amalgamation of their names, which irks the couple.
Through a spokeswoman, People magazine, which is owned by Time Inc., released a statement denying that any conditions were placed on coverage. “These claims are categorically false,” the statement said. “Like any news organization, People does purchase photos, but the magazine does not determine editorial content based on the demands of outside parties.”
While all celebrities seek to manipulate their public images to one degree or another, Ms. Jolie accomplishes it with a determination, a self-reliance and a degree of success that is particularly notable. The actress does not employ a publicist or an agent. The keys to her public image belong to her alone, although she does rely on her longtime manager, Geyer Kosinski, as a conduit.
Jennifer Lopez, who sold pictures of her twins to People for an estimated $6 million in February, has a team of eight to help her navigate such situations. Ms. Jolie, 33, has her cellphone, a lawyer and Mr. Kosinski (and, of course, the counsel of her partner, Mr. Pitt). Getty Images handled the photography and some negotiations.
“She’s scary smart,” said Bonnie Fuller, the former editor of Us Weekly and Star magazines. “But smart only takes you so far. She also has an amazing knack, perhaps more than any other star, for knowing how to shape a public image.”
Ms. Jolie did not respond to interview requests and neither did Mr. Kosinski. Her lawyer, Robert Offer, declined to comment. But through interviews with nearly two dozen people who have worked directly with her over the years, a picture emerges of how she skillfully works the press.
Ms. Jolie expertly walks a line between known entity and complete mystery, cultivates relationships with friendly reporters and even sets up her own photo shoots for the paparazzi.
Most skillfully, she dictates terms to celebrity magazines involving their coverage of her and her family, editors say, creating an awkward situation for publications that try to abide by strict journalistic standards.
Ms. Jolie showed her skill at handling the news media in other negotiations. People magazine bid successfully for photos and an exclusive interview after she gave birth to her first child in 2006. Those pictures sold for an estimated $4.1 million, a sum that she and Mr. Pitt said they donated to charity.
In a separate 2006 negotiation with People, Ms. Jolie invited magazine editors — through her philanthropic adviser, Trevor Neilson — to bid on exclusive photos of her and her adopted Cambodian son, Maddox. But she made coverage of her charity work part of the deal.
“While Angelina and Brad understand the interest in their family, they also expect that the publications who purchase these photos will use them in a way that also draws attention to the needs of the Cambodian people,” Mr. Neilson wrote in a December 2006 memo to editors.
He went on to promise that Ms. Jolie would provide “exclusive quotes” to the publication that purchased the photos. “Publications are invited to comment on their editorial plans when submitting their bids,” Mr. Neilson wrote.
Time Inc. won the photos, paying an estimated $750,000. In the Jan. 8 issue of People came an article headlined “Angelina Jolie: Mission to Cambodia.” As in other instances, the company paid the money to the photography company, Getty Images, which took its fee and split the rest in payments to companies operated on behalf of Ms. Jolie and Mr. Pitt. Those companies in turn funneled the money to the Jolie-Pitt Foundation.
Mr. Neilson, the president of the Global Philanthropy Group and a former executive at the Bill and Melinda Gates Foundation, said, “She is used to sell magazines and newspapers, so part of why we wrote that memo is that we wanted to use the interest in her personal life to influence people to pay attention to important issues. If Angie can use the interest and redirect it, she wants to do that.”
The persona that Ms. Jolie projects on screen tends to be intimidating and physical. She is not the girl next door. She won a supporting actress Oscar in 2000 for “Girl, Interrupted,” in which she played a mental patient.
But more recently, she has emphasized her philanthropic work, and her growing family. Ms. Jolie, with Mr. Pitt, now has a clan of six. There are three adopted children — Maddox, Pax and Zahara — and three biological children: Shiloh and the twins, Knox and Vivienne.
But she cut a very different, wilder figure in Hollywood during her marriage to the actor Billy Bob Thornton. After their divorce in 2003, Us magazine asked Ms. Jolie if she would agree to an interview and be photographed. According to two people involved, she declined — but then offered the magazine another photo opportunity. Ms. Jolie informed it what time and place she would be publicly playing with Maddox, essentially creating a paparazzi shot.
The resulting photo, the origin of which was not made public to Us readers, presented Ms. Jolie in a new light — a young mother unsuccessfully trying to have a private moment with her son.
Shifting the focus is one of Ms. Jolie’s best maneuvers, magazine editors and publicity executives say. When she became romantically involved with Mr. Pitt, for instance, she faced a public relations crisis — being portrayed in the tabloid press as a predator who stole Mr. Pitt from his wife, Jennifer Aniston.
This time, it was Ms. Jolie’s charity work that helped turn the story. Long interested in international humanitarian work, Ms. Jolie appeared in Pakistan, where she visited camps housing Afghan refugees, and even met with President Pervez Musharraf. Ms. Jolie and Mr. Pitt made a subsequent trip to Kashmir to bring attention to earthquake victims.
“Presto, they come out looking like serious people who have transformed a silly press obsession into a sincere attempt to help the needy,” said Michael Levine, a celebrity publicist and author.
That is cynical nonsense, counters Mr. Neilson.
“People don’t realize the complexity of what Angie is doing,” he said. “A lot of her charity work is done quietly and not in front of the media.”
According to federal filings, the Jolie-Pitt Foundation, the entity through which Mr. Neilson says the couple distributes photo money, has given grants of about $2 million since its creation in 2006. Mr. Neilson said that filings run more than a year behind and that the foundation has additional commitments of about $5.6 million that that are being paid as the organizations receiving the funds structure their programs.
Among the grants are $2 million for an AIDS clinic in Ethiopia and $2.6 million to Make It Right, an organization devoted to rebuilding New Orleans, Mr. Neilson said. Smaller grants include $500,000 to groups focused on helping Iraqi schoolchildren.
The New York Times recently ran a feature article about Ms. Jolie; there were no restrictions on access.
Ms. Jolie’s attempts to lasso the media have occasionally backfired. In 2006, when she sought the privacy of Namibia to give birth to Shiloh, the government refused to grant visas to journalists unless they had written permission from the couple. Magazines complained harshly.
More recently, she insisted that journalists at the premiere of “A Mighty Heart,” a movie about the murdered Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl, sign an agreement limiting their questions and the use of her answers. In part, the document stated: “The interview may only be used to promote the picture. In no event may interviewer or media outlet be entitled to run all or any portion of the interview in connection with any other story.”
And, “the interview will not be used in a manner that is disparaging, demeaning or derogatory to Ms. Jolie.”
Ms. Jolie blamed an overzealous lawyer for the demand at the time, saying he was “trying to protect me.”
Still, such blunders are rare, and Ms. Jolie’s Q score, a measurement of a star’s likability, has continued to increase. Around the time she won her Oscar, 13 percent of people surveyed viewed her positively, according to Marketing Evaluations Inc. The average rating for female stars is 18 percent.
Today, about 24 percent of respondents view Ms. Jolie positively.
Like as if JEN doesn’t have some sort of agreement with USWeekly? They are ALWAYS writing horrid vicious stuff about Angelina, and NEVER post anything bad about Jen.
You’re a fool if you think Jen doesn’t do the EXACT SAME THING, let alone all other celebs.
bwhahahahaha
Jolie calls the paps to set up pictures!
I KEW IT!!!!!
Nope adora, that would be Jen the master tabloidattentionwhore who went through one door at the Ivy and out another in under one minute, during peak hour lunch when it was full of paps. Jen is so desperate and so sad, there is NOTHING that lowlife maggot won’t do.
I read this earlier and it really says nothing new. Its author, Barnes, is just trying to sensationalize it.
It wasn’t exactly a secret that Jolie & Pitt expected People to cover more serious topics such as refugees in exchange for access to them and the photos of the kids. That’s actually a very good idea.
I suppose it looks more important to say Time, Inc., the parent company, but it was, in fact, People Magazine. And why would anyone expect a negative slant in any article based on the photographs of any celebrity’s child. Those are ALWAYS puff pieces.
Barnes cites one incident (again with no source) from many years ago when Maddox was a baby where Jolie didn’t want to do articles for two of the tabs so she compromised and let their photogs know she’d be in a playground one time. It isn’t even comparable to Jennifer Garner who does this on a regular basis or Jennifer Aniston who also regularly does this to advertise her love life.
Barnes attributes amazing qualities to what must be even more of a super woman than the public already believes Ms. Jolie to be. He would have us believe that a woman who just gave birth, recovering from an operation, nursing her baby [babies] and being a mother to toddlers is involved in some nitty gritty high level negotiations for the babies’ photographs. As if there were any other half-way respectable choices with enough money to compete for the photo rights besides People and Hello. The decisions for both births must have taken all of two seconds. She really must be a Super Woman.
You’ll note that Barnes really has no sources who are willing to be named which makes them suspect in the first place. This isn’t exactly an expose of the mafia or government where you need to protect your identity to protect your life or job. Protection of sources providing frivolous information about a third party celebrity who can do nothing meaningful to the source is not what protecting your sources is about. It IS, however, what sloppy journalism is about. It is NOT the way an editor ensures that rumors and unfounded allegations do not drive a story. The NY Times is parroting tabloid news in this article. An article in the NY Times relying on Bonnie Fuller, of all people, for a truthful analysis is hysterical. They certainly make Angelina Jolie seem like one of the most powerful and important persons in the world.
Barnes also neglects to do much research in reporting on the full picture and level of both Ms. Jolie’s and Mr. Pitt’s philanthropic and humanitarian work. There is much he omits such as the enormous level of financial investment and other commitments Angelina has made in Cambodia and Vietnam and projects in Africa. He even misses the very large commitment, again both financially and personally, to the recently enacted (with Ms. Jolie’s help) U.S. legislation to provide legal assistance to refugee minors in the U.S. and the foundation she set up and funded to support its vital goals.
Perhaps the worst aspect of ths article is the unseemly and unfair insinuation that Ms. Jolie visits foreign countries merely to distract the public from her recent love life or the antics in her more youthful past. I can’t imagine that the fact that Ms. Jolie has been regularly toiling at these humanitarian endeavors and making large charitable contributions for many years before she even knew Mr. Pitt is unknown to the author [for instance in 2001 her one million dollar donation for refugees from the war in Afghanistan] .
In the end it’s a silly article that says very little but wants to imply a lot. The New York Times as tabloid journalism. My how times have changed.

“through interviews with nearly two dozen people who have worked directly with her over the years, a picture emerges of how she skillfully works the press.”
So from 5.6 millions in J-Pee foundation , they have only given 2 millions since 2006. Well I guess the starving people can wait for the interest to grow in Jolie Pitts pockets.:
“the Jolie-Pitt Foundation, the entity through which Mr. Neilson says the couple distributes photo money, has given grants of about $2 million since its creation in 2006. Mr. Neilson said that filings run more than a year behind and that the foundation has additional commitments of about $5.6 million that that are being paid as the organizations receiving the funds structure their programs.”

Can you even read? The foundation disbursed $2 million in its first 6 months of existence. That was for 6 months of 2006.
It’s 2007 report is not even on line and may not even be filed yet.
Try to keep up with the adults.
groundcontrol: Your real nam is DAMAGE control.
Sorry too late for Jolie, she’s going down in a wall of flames right now, ALL OVER the place, and theres nothing you can do about it.
Deal.

Hey, a$$hole. #251 is me, Groundcontrol. You can’t handle that people are fed up with the lies about Jolie can you? You have to be a moron to think that Jolie or Pitt would waste their time posting on a gossip site.
Brooks Barnes is nothing but a hack. He was eviscerated for his so called reporting of the writers strike. He was easily manipulated by his so called anonymous sources then (aka people with an agenda) and because he was cmpletely out of his league reporting on Hollywood and the industry he made a fool of himself with his factual errors, lazy fact checking and clueless “anaylsis.” It looks like he has learned nothing from his reporting disasters of last summer. His Jolie article is riddled with factual errors, glaring omissions seemingly designed to feed his preconceived notions and agenda, and, quite frankly, an blogger like attitude that seems geared to fangurls on gossip sites - like you.
damagecontrol. Namecalling isn’t gonna help your case either I’m afraid .
Sorry too late for the s.k.ank. And I didn’t say that jolie or pitt is here, I said a paid pr-troll. Thats different.
Well it was fun to watch you all collapse in denials. Good luck with handling the separation.
Brad will dump Jolie like a hot potato once he gets the pm that says she’s cramping his image.
J-P obviously have a paid troll over here to tell you minions what to think and how to act. How very cultish of Jolie
Here we go again! It was so un-cool of Jennifer to dredge up what happened FOUR YEARS AGO!! Calling AJ un-cool in Vogue magazine.
So now she’s made trouble for herself. The paps are going to have a field day making up more stupid stories about the 2 of them.. If only JA isn’t so insecure and needy for attention that she had to go blabbing her HUGE mouth off!
My posts are not showing up. I’ll try again. Apologies if I’m repeating myself. Tx. Groundcontrol.

Hey, a$$hole. #251 is me, Groundcontrol.
Your delusional assumptions are too funny. Only a moron or a child would even think that Angelina Jolie or Brad Pitt would post or cause to be posted anything on a gossip site. Get a grip.
You really can’t handle that there are real people in the world who are fed up with irrational and obsessive attacks on Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. These 2 decent people doing enormous good in the world do not deserve any of this criticism or even insinuation. I am all too happy to defend someone who supports so fiercely the causes I believe in.
There is a subspecies of females that eagerly await every opportunity to devour fellow females who somehow elicit feelings of inadequacy in other females. You are part and parcel of that subspecies.
The fact is that Brooks Barnes is a hack. He proved what a lazy hack he was during his reporting of the writers strike. He justifably earned his terrible reputation in the industry and only a fool would believe his reporting and less than a fool would put any stock in his “analysis” or inferences in a field he proved his incompetence in last year.
Barnes’ Jolie article is riddled with glaring omissions, conveniently “nameless sources,” and enough bloggerish attitude all seemingly designed to fit Barnes’ preconceived notions and agenda. Not to mention getting him prominent attention and probably a thousand references on google just for mentioning Jolie’s name. He exemplifies lazy and speculative journalism.
Barnes proved last summer how easily manipulated he was by his then anonymous sources ( aka studio bosses, publicists and lobbyists) who used him for their own agenda and to feed misinformation during a labor dispute. It looks like he learned nothing from his errors and lack of insight into the industry.

LAINEY OUTS ANSTON FOR THE DESPERATE MANIPULATIVE MEDIAHO SHE IS.
http://www.laineygossip.com/Jennifer_Aniston_wants_people_to_believe_Leonardo_DiCaprio_would_actually_be_interested_in_her.aspx
Even her bodyguards…
Are very well trained. In the art of media manipulation and pimping their employer out as a desirable woman.
Oh Jennifer Aniston. All those self help books and still the desperation gives her no peace. To the point now that she’s resorting to letting her security team work her PR.
According to X17, the other day Jen went to Leonardo DiCaprio’s to shoot a PSA. Leo is tight with Tobey Maguire who is married to Jennifer Meyer who is part of the Aniston-Courteney Friend circle. It would mean that this would not be the first time Jennifer Aniston and Leo D found themselves together.
Besides, it’s not like they were alone.
Tobey’s there too, and also Kate Bosworth, and Seth Rogen, and Selma Blair, and even Usher to round out the big party.
Just a few nights before it was confirmed Leo and Bar Rafaeli had not split…
In other words, no one was suspecting anything. Period.
But Jen’s bodyguard seemed fixated, stalking around the paps, warning them: “You’re not going to start rumours, are you? Don’t start any rumours”…to the point that the photogs made the observation that it “seemed as if someone told Jen’s bodyguard to talk to the paps about The Story – just to make it one in the first place!”
Is Stephen Huvane running out of tricks?
He must be.
Who the f&ck in their right mind would believe that Leonardo DiCaprio could ever possibly be interested in Jennifer Aniston?
Again…now that we’re back to this…
Hello John Stamos?
Call John Stamos!

The other side of Angelina Jolie
We know that she’s Brad’s other half, a devoted mother of six, with a dark and driven side. But Angelina Jolie is also willing to put her life on the line, as our exclusive photographs of her in Afghanistan show.
Tony Allen-Mills reports. Portraits by Marco Di Lauro
On the day I am to meet Angelina Jolie, the New York newsstands are once again filled with magazines carrying her picture on their covers. A couple of recent public sightings of the elusive 33-year-old actress were enough to ignite a torrent of headlines about her six children, her exotic love life, and whether or not — as In Touch magazine indelicately put it — she has been “starving herself to get her old body back” after giving birth to twins in July.
The stories — as usual when it comes to Jolie’s complicated private life — are recklessly speculative and hopelessly contradictory.
Star magazine reports that Jolie’s boyfriend, Brad Pitt, has “fled the chaos at home” and that “things have gotten heated” for the world’s premier Hollywood couple, otherwise known as Brangelina. But OK! magazine is sure that “Brad loves Angie’s curves”.
I had feared, on arriving at Jolie’s suite at the Waldorf-Astoria hotel on Park Avenue, that the usual phalanx of Hollywood flunkies would be on hand to protect their star from intrusive questioning. Yet when her door opens, she is standing alone inside — a tall, graceful figure in a white wrapround dress that manages to be sexy and demure at the same time. She’s still breast-feeding her three-month-old twins. Brad would have to be nuts not to love the milk-heavy curves that are straining through Angie’s dress.

Angelina Jolie discusses challenging new role
She ushers me to a sofa and curls up at the other end. I find myself slightly dazed by how disarmingly natural she seems. She is arguably the world’s most beautiful woman — certainly the most gossiped about — and one of Hollywood’s biggest box-office draws: Bond meets Jessica Rabbit. She’s now also convincingly delivering heart and emotion in movies like her latest, The Changeling, in which she plays a distraught mother who loses her child. She’s got the looks, the career, the man, the talent, the money and a minibus-load of adorable kids. It sounds pretty much like having it all.
Yet has this glowing maternal icon really escaped the weird vices and weirder relationships of her not-so-distant past, and what is it she wants of her future? This is a woman who said just four years ago: “ Tomorrow evening everything may change — my life, my image, people around me, my occupation… otherwise it would be so boring to live.” That full and fascinating life shifts at dizzying speed. Is motherhood and seeming maturity likely to prove just another accident-prone interlude in Jolie’s tumultuous life?
She’s wearing no jewellery and minimal make-up, and has just climbed off a transatlantic flight from Germany (albeit by private jet); yet she shows not a trace of the supposed ailments that tabloid investigators claim to have diagnosed over the past few months: depression, anorexia, romantic strife. Within a week of our meeting she is off again to spend two days in Afghanistan for the UN Refugee Agency (UNHCR). She’s been a goodwill ambassador for the organisation since 2001, visiting more than 20 countries in that time, from Sierra Leone and Kosovo to Costa Rica and Iraq. And, unlike others, she goes where real bullets fly. While there, three aid workers will be murdered by hit-and-run assassins. Why she’s going to Kabul, she’ll tell us on her return.
For now I wonder how she manages to live with the scrutiny that has dogged her career ever since she won a best-supporting-actress Oscar for playing a sociopathic mental patient in the 1999 film Girl, Interrupted. Surely it must bother her that her every move — real or imagined — becomes a tabloid headline? “It doesn’t bother us at all,” she says firmly. It comes as no surprise to learn that she and Brad don’t read the tabloid press and don’t watch much TV, other than the news and children’s shows. Yet they seem to have a need to remain in the spotlight. What value would her work for UNHCR have without celebrity? If it’s true that Brad Pitt is interested in pursuing a political career, why hide from the cameras? They feed the machine and it feeds them: their finances allowing them to manage, for now, two stellar careers in Hollywood and a gypsy lifestyle in which the children can be supported by nannies, tutors and staff in addition to their parents.
Surprisingly, unlike most of the Hollywood A-list, that staff doesn’t include a personal publicist for Jolie to shield her private life. In part, that’s because she’s made a point of talking about sex, drugs and her appetite for them from the start.
There’s also much that has surfaced to embarrass her from her past: but denying it doesn’t seem to be her game. She was once caught on video, wide-eyed and mumbling incoherently in what was described as a “drugs den”, about how weary she was of talking about sadomasochism, a practice she seemed to be suggesting came from deep inside her heart. It was filmed in 1999, when she was 23. She wasn’t seen taking drugs, but has freely admitted to doing so when she was younger, telling The Sunday Times in 2003: “I have done just about every drug possible: cocaine, heroin, ecstasy, LSD. The worst effect, oddly enough, was pot, which made me feel out of control.” She has also spoken in early interviews about being keen to try anything sexually, and has made no secret of her lesbian relationships. It’s seedy stuff and also fascinating. Can someone so open to experiences, dark or not, still want to flourish at the brittle heights of supposedly squeaky-clean American society? Apparently so, and without regret. “The people in my circle know not to bring anything to my attention unless it’s something they feel I really have to address,” she says. “So it is very possible to be totally unaware of everything they’re saying about me,” she giggles. “Thank God.”
To be sure, there’s plenty for “them” to say. And not all of it speculative or bitchy. The star of such diverse films as Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, A Mighty Heart and Kung Fu Panda — in which she gave voice to the role of a cartoon tigress — has earned consistent acclaim for her acting skills from critics and audiences. Almost alone among leading Hollywood actresses, she is as confident slinging guns in high-tech action thrillers as she is breaking into tears in emotional dramas. In addition to her Oscar, she has three Golden Globes and two Screen Actors Guild awards and is already being tipped for more prizes for her latest role in Changeling, based on a true story from the 1920s and directed by Clint Eastwood.
At an age when many Hollywood actresses start to wonder if their looks will hold up and their careers will hold out, Jolie is confidently planning another film in February then a year-long break to tend to her family, “and then one film a year, one film every three years, one film every six years. I’ll just, you know, fade away…” This seems hard to believe. Not least because her humanitarian interests show no sign of fading. While filing Tomb Raider in Cambodia, she approached UNHCR for more information on international trouble spots and began a series of field trips around the world to learn more. “It’s hard not to be affected by what you see and feel. I’ve seen and spoken to families whose lives have been destroyed by war, conflict and human-rights abuses. I’ve watched children struggle to survive without shelter, clothing, or food,” she says on her return from Kabul.
In recent years she’s promoted humanitarian issues at a political level. She supports the National Center for Refugee and Immigrant Children in America, is a member of the Council on Foreign Relations, and her Wikipedia site boasts a single image at the top of the page — a portrait taken at the World Economic Forum in Davos in 2005. But she’s not looking for a career change. “I don’t think I belong in politics, but I will work with politicians to bring about change.”
Like George Clooney, Jolie is acutely aware of the dim reputation of Hollywood liberals and their political posturing, but is also convinced that she can use her celebrity to focus attention on African conflict or Asian misery. “I want to learn more about the world, and I’m becoming a better student,” she says.
Then, of course, there’s the monster Brangelina, the paparazzi magnet that feeds an industry of media and internet gossip columnists. It started in 2005, when Jolie met Pitt on the set of Mr and Mrs Smith, a spy caper they filmed together. It exploded into tabloid nirvana when Pitt left his then-wife, Jennifer Aniston, to set up home with Jolie, who has been denounced ever since as a marriage-wrecker.
Brangelina gave birth to the latest of Jolie’s contrasting identities, a condition best described as mass motherhood. After years of largely narcissistic excess — all those men, tattoos and having sex with women and snogging with her brother and cutting herself with knives — Jolie now presides over a sprawling family of three children adopted from Cambodia (Maddox, aged 7), Vietnam (Pax, 4) and Ethiopia (Zahara, known as Zee, 3); three of her own children with Brad (Shiloh, 2 — born in Namibia — and the new twins Knox and Vivienne); and the prospect of more on the way.
“Most likely we’ll adopt again,” she calmly announces. She talks about her family as if she was baking a cake: “As we layer them in, with two new ones, we’re watching that balance, that shape and form, and once we feel that’s solid, we’ll know when it’s time to bring in another.”
It’s tempting to read into this near-frantic immersion in chaotic, multinational family life a reaction to Jolie’s own difficult childhood. Her father was Jon Voight, the Oscar-winning star of Midnight Cowboy and Deliverance. Her mother was Marcheline Bertrand, a French-Canadian actress who died of ovarian cancer aged 56 last year. Her parents split when she was one, and she and her brother, James Haven, were raised by their mother, initially in New York and then in LA. Jolie has endured a famously stormy relationship with her father, who once claimed his daughter had “serious emotional problems”. They reconciled and appeared together in Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, but fell out again soon after, and he’s the one subject that Jolie does not discuss beyond recognising that they both have a “dark and driven” side, and an angry outburst in which she made the point that one isn’t simply born into a family, one has to earn a place within it. So it’s fascinating that she should have eclipsed her father’s career in testosterone-fuelled roles and begun to emulate her mother’s femininity within her work, family and even her choice of France to give birth and find a family home.
There’s also a lingering poignancy in it all. When her famous father left her as a child, Jolie’s mother struggled. And she did too. It was a successful life on many levels — Voight seems to have given them money, if not time — but one in which she felt vulnerable. At Beverly Hills high school she often wore secondhand clothes and was teased for her features, for being skinny and for wearing glasses and braces. At 14 she was living with a boyfriend and became a kind of goth. The self-harming appears to have started around then, her lonely cutting leading seemingly into an interest in sadomasochism as she grew older.
She did eventually graduate from high school, but it’s not a happy picture and the echoes of it continue through to today, in the tattoos on her body. She has six sets of geographical co-ordinates on her upper left arm indicating the birthplaces of her children and several telling quotes, including one from Tennessee Williams: “a prayer for the wild at heart, kept in cages”, and a Latin proverb, “Quod me nutrit me destruit” — “what nourishes me, destroys me”. They seem to speak of enormous introspection and loneliness. Some have been lasered away, including a window on her lower back that she removed, it is claimed, because while she used to spend all her time looking through windows wishing to be outside, she now lives there all the time.
Is it safer for her to be out in the bigger world and in the public eye than locked within her own interior world? That’s already a lot of baggage for one woman’s life, but I haven’t even mentioned her disastrous marriages to Jonny Lee Miller, a British actor whose name she wrote in blood on her shirt when she married him in 1996; and to Billy Bob Thornton, the drawling American icon of whom she once said, “We’re never going to separate” (the couple wore vials of each other’s blood around their necks; the marriage lasted three years).
The real problem, of course, is that Jolie has become so famous for being Jolie that her work as a serious actress is in danger of being undermined by the celebrity circus. There was a hint of this in the reaction to A Mighty Heart, in which she played Mariane Pearl, the pregnant wife of a US journalist who was kidnapped and beheaded by terrorists in Pakistan.
The high-profile role won her critical praise and a couple of prizes, but no Oscar nomination and a tepid response at the American box office, where, to be fair, no terrorist-related films have made much of an impact.
There are already signs that her work in Changeling might fall foul of the Brangelina effect. Again, she is playing a real-life woman stricken by loss, and some American critics have wondered whether after A Mighty Heart, that might seem too familiar to Academy voters. They may also consider that it’s no longer enough of a stretch for Jolie to be playing an anguished mother. Could an Oscar snub lie in store?
In Changeling, Jolie plays Christine Collins, a California telephone-company supervisor and single mother whose nine-year-old son went missing in 1928. When the police announce that the boy has been found, and present Collins with a child she doesn’t recognise, the stage is set for a startling confrontation between a bewildered yet determined mother and a corrupt Los Angeles Police Department that has its own sinister reasons for wanting to silence Collins and close the kidnapping case.
Jolie delivers a restrained and dignified performance that seems to justify Eastwood’s gamble of choosing so famous a face for his Oscar entry this year. “I do feel responsibility to the production,” she says. “It’s important that I did my job well.” But she doesn’t seem to worry too much about trophies: she confesses she has lost her original Oscar.
“I gave it to my mother and she’s passed away. I don’t know where it is,” she adds.
She began work on Changeling soon after her mother’s death from cancer, and became pregnant with her twins during filming. She also had to overcome her natural qualms about acting out every parent’s worst nightmare. “It was one of the reasons that at first I didn’t want to do the film,” she says. “I knew how hard it would be, I didn’t want to think about those types of things. I didn’t want to make that phone call and hear the words out of my mouth, ‘my son’s missing’.”
Her model for the role was her own mother. Her real life and screen life overlapped to the extent that she carried her mother’s picture in the handbag she used as Collins.
“My mom was a very sweet, soft-spoken woman who didn’t like to yell, wasn’t comfortable swearing, but was fierce about her children and protecting them.” Jolie found that there was “something very bonding” about playing a woman so like her own mother so soon after her mother’s death. “It helped me to heal, to inhabit the kind of femininity that my mother had, that modern women don’t have so much.”
There’s something else that modern women don’t have so much, and that’s a certainty that modern men will stick around. The date of Pitt’s presumed departure from the Brangelina coalition — they have no plans to marry — remains a staple of tabloid fare, with their break-up routinely reported either to have occurred last week, or to be about to occur next week. “Brad and Angelina at breaking point!” declared the cover of Life & Style magazine in September. “Have they split ?” wondered In Touch Weekly.
Jolie is rather sweet when talking about her lover, but her fans have been down this road before. When her marriage to Thornton collapsed in May 2003, Jolie announced with characteristic frankness: “It took me by surprise too, because, overnight, we totally changed.”
The basis of the rather sexist presumption that Pitt is itching to leave seems to lie in the admittedly unusual routine that Jolie has imposed on the Brangelina household and the fact that, as the family tour the world, Pitt often appears like some beleaguered Denis Thatcher who trailed after Margaret. Not easy when you are a heartthrob in the same business. In the most recent Forbes’ Celebrity 100 list, Angelina is listed as the world’s third most powerful star, behind Oprah Winfrey and Tiger Woods. In terms of earnings, Brad is still ahead of her — it’s claimed he earns $20m a film to her $14m.
Before meeting Pitt, and when she had adopted Maddox, Angelina had spoken of wanting to adopt a huge family on her own. With Pitt she would appear to have a level of trust, and perhaps need, that she hasn’t shown in her previous relationships. “We have an agreement at home that if there’s something either one of us loves, a story we really want to do, we take turns working and the other will always make a big home and bring the kids and keep everything together and make it work,” says Jolie.
That’s why she and her children have stepped off a plane from Germany — the family has been living in a rented villa in Berlin while Brad films Inglourious ********, a second-world-war adventure directed by Quentin Tarantino. The family flew to New York earlier in October so that Jolie could attend the New York film festival premiere of Changeling; they all flew back to Germany so Brad could film more scenes; then they all flew to New York again so Jolie could help Eastwood promote their film.
Then there’s the question of the children’s schooling, which is currently in the hands of travelling tutors. Having failed to learn French — her mother’s second language — while growing up, Jolie is keen that her children become bilingual. She also wants Pax to learn something of his native Vietnamese, and Maddox to keep up his Khmer.
“But we all wanted to have one second language in common, and we chose French,” she says. That’s part of the reason they decided to settle in Provence, where they have bought a substantial property. “We love the quality of life there, it’s slower and sweeter and very family-oriented,” says Jolie. She freely admits there was a time in her life when she thought she wouldn’t have children.
“I just thought there were so many children in the world I never felt I needed to create a life,” she said. “I wasn’t sure I’d ever be comfortable with getting pregnant.”
When she adopted Maddox from a Cambodian orphanage in 2002, she had visited the country to make Tomb Raider, seen its poverty at close hand, and felt for the first time that “I needed to be a mom and take care of someone who needed a mom”. But she still felt reluctant to become pregnant herself.
All that changed, she now says, because of Pitt. It was Pitt who wanted the big family, and Pitt who eventually persuaded her that she needed to experience childbirth herself.
“Early on when we met, we had this time when we were working together and we just spent it discussing how we saw our lives and what our plans were for the future. And there was a day when we both talked about wanting a large family. At the time I was thinking of only adoptive children, but he saw a big family mixed with adoptive and born children. And I ended up falling in love with a man who I think was destined to have children and suddenly one day it felt right and there it was.”
If Pitt didn’t realise what he was getting into, both he and Jolie are hiding it well. At one point she mentions the delight her boyfriend has been taking in her newly-rounded body. “I’m with a man who sees the beauty in the journey the mother’s body takes, as I think all men should. But some men just don’t, unfortunately.”
Pitt’s enthusiasm also surfaced in an unexpectedly public way — on, of all places, New York newsstands. Soon after the birth of their twins, the couple auctioned off the usual new-baby pictures for the world-record sum of $14m, all of which went to their charity, the Jolie-Pitt Foundation, established in 2006 to help with “humanitarian crises throughout the world”.
Two months later they were approached by W magazine, a bible of the New York fashion industry, seeking another set of shots of Angelina to coincide with the release of Changeling. The grainy black-and-white photos appeared last month, billed as “Brad Pitt’s private pictures of Angelina Jolie” and suggest the actor shouldn’t give up his day job. “I’d just had the kids six weeks before and felt so private, it didn’t feel right having a photographer fly across the world with a rack of stylish clothes for me to wear.”
Pitt turns out to be a keen amateur photographer, so W commissioned him to shoot his girlfriend in candid poses at home. “It became this one-week project in our house,” Jolie says. The way she tells it, matters quickly got out of hand, and some of the photographs proved far too sexual to be released on an unsuspecting American audience. “Yeah, we thought about it, we’d look at the pictures as art and say this is a really interesting photograph, but then we’d know better and we’d think about how it was going to be received. So we made it a little more tame than it was originally.”
Jolie’s voice softened and for a moment she sounded almost wistful as she basked in a happy memory. It was hard after that to be cynical about Brangelina’s romantic prospects, but a couple of awkward questions remained. One day the couple’s children will be old enough to check out their parents’ lives on their own. Is Jolie worried that Google’s infinite internet memory will lead her kids to the long list of her past indiscretions, from the drug-taking and self-mutilation to the kinky sex? What will they make of the speculation about Jolie’s waistline and whether she resorted to plastic surgery to rid herself of post-partum flab?
How will she handle their questions? Jolie doesn’t sound too worried. “I think it’s going to be that they’ll understand they can talk to me about everything, and that by the time they get to be teenagers we’ll have formed a sufficient bond,” she says. “We tell them everything, we’re honest with them. My mother was that way with me.”
In the Brangelina household “the word ‘adoption’ is a good word”, Jolie adds. “We talk about orphanages, we talk about their countries and differences, and it’s a source of excitement and pride. I’ve heard Maddox explain to Zahara when they are talking about pregnancy, ‘No, Zee, remember, you were in that nice African woman’s belly. I was in that nice Cambodian woman’.”
It would be lovely to think that Brad and Angie can defy Hollywood’s dismal record of celebrity-marriage failure, and emulate another star couple — Paul Newman and Joanne Woodward, who were married for 50 years before Newman’s death in September.
However their family life develops, Jolie continues to insist she’s not the kind of woman to dwell on her mistakes. “I’m one of those people who believes you just can’t regret things in life. You have to feel confident that it was all part of the journey.” She rises gracefully from the sofa, bringing the interview to a close.
In a few hours she’ll be on the plane to Afghanistan. “I’ve wanted to visit Afghanistan for many years. I’d already seen Afghan refugees in Pakistan and heard their stories of home. Over five million Afghans have returned in the last six years since the fall of the Taliban. So I wanted to see for myself how they were doing.
“Behind the labels — refugees, internally displaced persons, asylum seekers — are people with the same hopes, fears, sorrow and happiness as anyone. Their life experiences are often deeply tragic but also uplifting. To survive what many Afghan families have experienced over three decades is testimony to the resilience of the human spirit. This shines through in their generosity, humour, and quiet determination to offer their children a better future.”
When she returns, the photographs are evidence that Jolie has been deeply moved. In one she is clearly in tears as she listens to an old man sob out his story. “It is so rare to see a grown man break down and cry — when a man does, you feel how devastating the situation is. He was distraught that he could not do anything to help his family,” she explains later.
But what of Jolie? Do an old man’s tears prompt her to question herself?
“If you start to regret, start to hesitate and question every move to make, then you live in some different way,” she says. “And for all the craziness I’ve done, I’ve never hurt anybody.” Except, perhaps, herself.
Changeling is released nationwide on November 28
So the Brangieloooon defense is Aniston does it too?
bwhahahahahaahahaha
I’m sure she does, but then her fans have never claimed she’s above such things like the Brangielooons do.
You’ve just stated that Jolie is no different than Aniston! lollololololol Oh, that has to sting!
vjoooooooo @ 11/21/2008 at 3:32 am groundcontrol: Your real nam is DAMAGE control.
Sorry too late for Jolie, she’s going down in a wall of flames right now, ALL OVER the place, and theres nothing you can do about it.
Deal
#########
Your delusional ill wishes for Angelina Jolie and your initials give you away. This psychopathic song has been sung for years now. Perhaps you could entertain us with more lunatic theories about Ms. Jolie. Please don’t forget to include your latest predicted break up date of Ms. Jolie and Mr. Pitt.
I warned you my fellow posters here that with the recent self- destruction of a virulent Angelina Jolie hate web site that we would be visited here by more of the lunatic fringe spewing vile nonsenseabout her. Well here they are. I imagine they will be trying to spread their off the wall theories here as well - you know, Jolie faked her pregnancies and wore different size pillows throughout, Jolie lured Pitt away using voodoo, Jolie and Pitt are only in New Orleans so she can practice voodoo, Jolie only goes to Africa to smuggle diamonds, Jolie only goes to visit Latin American refugees so she can smuggle drugs, and on and on and on. Each crazier than the last one.
Listen to yourself, Ms. VJ thing, “. . . going down in a wall of flames.” You sound like the bitter fool you have proven yourself to be over and over all over the internet. Evidenced even more by your conspiracy rants about Jolie paying people to post on gossip sites. Riiiiight. Please, woman, come back down to earth and take the tin hat off..
Brooks Barnes remains an ill informed hack. He was spanked properly by the writing community last year for his pi$$ poor reporting and writing when he couldn’t get his facts straight, was too lazy to do his own research, and was completely manipulated by the studio bosses in selling their anti-union agenda. Once again he proves how low the bar has been lowered for journalistic standards.
Angelina Tortures Jennifer? HAHAHAHAHA. riiight! as if angie didn’t have anything to do in life BUT to torture jennifer.
Stupid media. This is so 3 years ago.. GET THE **** OVER IT!
But one thing is for sure, Jennifer shouldn’t have said the “What Angelina said was very uncool” and blah blah.. BIG MISTAkE, cause now the story is back on covers AND angelina didn’t mean to hurt jennifer.
Brangelina Ban at People?
Great story in yesterday’s New York Times business section about People magazine and how Angelina Jolie has bought and sold them.
For the last couple of years, since the birth of baby Shiloh, People has figured out the easy way to deal with Jolie, Brad Pitt and their ever expanding brood: just pay them for pics and interviews, and agree to be nice in all other coverage. It’s not journalism but it is practical.
You almost can’t blame the couple for figuring this out, especially if People was a willing participant. And it’s worked. Reporter Brooks Barnes even missed a few incidents of “staged” pictures of Jolie and her kids in People, all exclusive and all set up in advance. In People, at least, she’s Mother Theresa, with all aspects of her prior life — partying, ex husbands, affairs, tattoos, blood in vials around the neck — expunged in favor of a humanitarian.
One thing Barnes missed: Jolie doesn’t even have a publicist. She doesn’t need one. She seems to have figured out that by selling her press rights she can control her image herself. If someone asks the wrong question, then move on.
Such was the case when baby Shiloh was born in Namibia. Offending journalists were simply expelled from the country at the Jolie-Pitts’ request. The couple appeared in a press conference with the country’s longtime leader, a well known violator of journalist’s rights. But it was to protect civil rights — the couple’s.
Not to say that Jolie and Pitt haven’t been generous. It was this column that broke the story that they’d placed $8 million in their tax free foundation and used it for humanitarian aid. Their hearts are definitely in the right place. But the road to hell, as many have learned, is paved with good intentions. The fact that the Times had to give People that comeuppance yesterday is proof enough of that.

BWAAAAAAHAHAHA!
BTW, DOES ANYONE FIND IT A BIT CURIOUS THAT THIS PIECE IS COMING ON THE HEELS OF THE MEDIA BLITZ OF A CERTAIN SOMEONE WITH A PENCHANT FOR PEE-PEE SHOWERS AND A VERY THIN SKIN AND A VERY BULLISH, QUEEN OF A PR AGENT?
ESPECIALLY IN THE WAKE OF THE FACT THAT SAID PEE-PEE SHOWERS LOVER’S MEDIA BLITZ IS REAPING SOME UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES, SUCH AS A GROWING SENSE, EVEN AMONG THE MVM, THAT THE PREVIOUS IMAGE OF THE INNOCENT, WRONGED, GIRL-NEXT-DOOR ISNT SO INNOCENT OR WRONGED AFTER ALL? BWAAAAAAAAAAAAAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA!
ANYHOO, READ ON…. FANS AND FOES ALIKE. THIS ARTICLE ON ANGIE DOESNT REALLY DO THE DAMAGE THAT THE WRITER AND HIS PUPPETEER THOUGHT IT WOULD. THERE’S THAT DASTARDLY LITTLE THING KNOWN AS UNINTENDED CONSEQUENCES, AGAIN! LOL

I read this earlier and it really says nothing new. Its author, Barnes, is just trying to sensationalize it.
It wasn’t exactly a secret that Jolie & Pitt expected People to cover more serious topics such as refugees in exchange for access to them and the photos of the kids. That’s actually a very good idea.
I suppose it looks more important to say Time, Inc., the parent company, but it was, in fact, People Magazine. And why would anyone expect a negative slant in any article based on the photographs of any celebrity’s child. Those are ALWAYS puff pieces.
Barnes cites one incident (again with no source) from many years ago when Maddox was a baby where Jolie didn’t want to do articles for two of the tabs so she compromised and let their photogs know she’d be in a playground one time. It isn’t even comparable to Jennifer Garner who does this on a regular basis or Jennifer Aniston who also regularly does this to advertise her love life.
Barnes attributes amazing qualities to what must be even more of a super woman than the public already believes Ms. Jolie to be. He would have us believe that a woman who just gave birth, recovering from an operation, nursing her baby [babies] and being a mother to toddlers is involved in some nitty gritty high level negotiations for the babies’ photographs. As if there were any other half-way respectable choices with enough money to compete for the photo rights besides People and Hello. The decisions for both births must have taken all of two seconds. She really must be a Super Woman.
You’ll note that Barnes really has no sources who are willing to be named which makes them suspect in the first place. This isn’t exactly an expose of the mafia or government where you need to protect your identity to protect your life or job. Protection of sources providing frivolous information about a third party celebrity who can do nothing meaningful to the source is not what protecting your sources is about. It IS, however, what sloppy journalism is about. It is NOT the way an editor ensures that rumors and unfounded allegations do not drive a story. The NY Times is parroting tabloid news in this article. An article in the NY Times relying on Bonnie Fuller, of all people, for a truthful analysis is hysterical. They certainly make Angelina Jolie seem like one of the most powerful and important persons in the world.
Barnes also neglects to do much research in reporting on the full picture and level of both Ms. Jolie’s and Mr. Pitt’s philanthropic and humanitarian work. There is much he omits such as the enormous level of financial investment and other commitments Angelina has made in Cambodia and Vietnam and projects in Africa. He even misses the very large commitment, again both financially and personally, to the recently enacted (with Ms. Jolie’s help) U.S. legislation to provide legal assistance to refugee minors in the U.S. and the foundation she set up and funded to support its vital goals.
Perhaps the worst aspect of ths article is the unseemly and unfair insinuation that Ms. Jolie visits foreign countries merely to distract the public from her recent love life or the antics in her more youthful past. I can’t imagine that the fact that Ms. Jolie has been regularly toiling at these humanitarian endeavors and making large charitable contributions for many years before she even knew Mr. Pitt is unknown to the author [for instance in 2001 her one million dollar donation for refugees from the war in Afghanistan] .
In the end it’s a silly article that says very little but wants to imply a lot. The New York Times as tabloid journalism. My how times have changed.

This is the real manupulation of the media.

Let that jealousy keep eating you alive!
Angelina sells magazines, more than in the history of almost any other star. Her photos are worth millions, Interviews get the highest ratings, Everyone follows her, including those of you who “hate her”.
As long as you keep posting about her she owns you!
She has the media by the B***** because even if she winces because she has a stone in her shoe it is all over the press.
Even the NY Times is trying to cash in on the popularity of Angelina, to help sales.
You keep being played and you can’t even see it!
She
Oh yeah, I can imagine how Angelina was walking naked before all the stuff just to seduce Brad…. ha ha ha! I thin I believe more in a western story…. ridiculous! Angelina is quite attractive and doesn’t need to go naked around to attract men, she just has the gift to do that.
I guess Jennifer’s fan would like to believe that and one has to be so fool to do it…. but it’s oke, after all is another Angelina story to sell more… She is that great and that’s the reason for so many lies.

I JUST HAD TO REPEAT THIS POST (UNFORTUNATELY THE POSTER DIDNT GIVE A MONIKER THAT WE’RE FAMILIAR WITH ON JJ.)

##############################
CMAR, this is my post. I didn’t mean to be mysterious. I just forgot to type in my name and well, we can’t edit here at JJ.
I followed the writers strike last year very closely and this Brooks Barnes was so bad and inaccurate in his reporting that he literally became a shill for the studios and producers trying to destroy the unions. The NY Times should be ashamed of their WGA strike coverage. The Wall Street Journal did a much better job in its coverage.
Brooks Barnes follows in the shameful tradion of Jayson Blair, Stephen Glass and Janet Cooke. It’s called being a hack. It’s called being to lazy to check for accuracy. Even the NY Times falls for con men from time to time.
Maybe the funniest aspect of the whole article is that he can barely name any sources for his article which is a dead give-away right there. Ooooh. They all have to be anonymous. Not. This is not the kind of topic that requires “anonymous” sources. Give me a break. The over-use and abuse of “anonymous sources” in journalism is a real ethical issue. It does nothing to ensure accuracy or truth in this kind of reporting. Here, the parties involved deny the author’s premise. AND, most importantly, the NY Times’ own recent experience with Jolie completely belies this notion of manipulation.
I want to share the following quotes (of various personalities) to the people who are cynical about Angie’s motive in doing her share in helping others:
“What she has done transcends her physical beauty and really reminds us that it’s what is in the heart, and I really want to commend her for what she’s done in such a serious and thoughtful way.” (Hillary Clinton)
“I don’t know Angelina Jolie, but I admire her work.” (Barack Obama)
“Celebrities are doing the work that journalists are not. We can’t afford to be cynical about that….Can you really strike out against Angie and Bono?…Sure, there’s an opinion backlash. People think they are doing it for some sort of ego trip. But the people who are expressing that opinion? What are they doing?” (Marianne Pearl)
“Angie roughs it. She lives with us in the forest and eats the crickets and the cockroaches the locals eat without thinking twice about it. Whenever I read in magazines about her ‘glorious house in Cambodia,’ I think, What? It’s a shack. I don’t think people believe she has the ability to abandon everything in the West and transpose herself to a situation with malaria and dengue fever and the most extreme poverty. I read about her ‘Hollywood life.’ Well, you can’t live a Hollywood life in this part of Cambodia.” (Stephen Bognar)
“Their participation has been absolutely essential to the mainstreaming of these global issues into American life, which is why I find so ridiculous the cynicism, the pundits who disdain this. They misunderstand how our society works, and they misjudge these people, their leadership. No good deed goes unpunished, and it’s certainly true of this activity. Angelina goes at it with utter honesty, hard work and a deep feeling for the common faith of humanity. There’s no doubt about that or about her love for her children. And yet the amount of chattering that goes on about it is endless and preposterous, in my view” (Jeffrey Sachs)
“OK.Now, your daughter, Angelina Jolie. You know, we checked her out. I don’t know whether you know this or not. Big investigation on her. And we found out she walks the walk, that she gives all the money, millions of dollars and this and that. (Bill O’Reilly talking to Jon Voight)
“What I don’t understand is the media’s criticism (of Jolie’s) involvement in humanitarian aide and why they question her motives and sincerity..It’s like, Who cares? She’s doing a good job and putting so much of her time and money in the causes.” (Tea Leoni)
“These people don’t need additional focus or respect. I’m not that cynical at all. Angelina has given not only her time, but her money to assist people who need it most….In the past, entertainers have usually led selfish and egotistical lives so I like it when I see people like Angelina trying so hard. I think she has raised some awareness and that she has an extremely good heart.” (Mia Farrow)
“Her going to Haiti really helped my foundation. It was in a time where she was still pregnant. Haiti being the most dangerous place in the world, for Angelina Jolie to land there—while pregnant—that’s gangster. We respect that to the T.“ (Wyclef Jean)
“I like them (Angelina & Brad) very much…They’re bright, interested in what’s going on, open to everything, ready to grab everything they can out of life. They’re not wasting a lot of time being movie stars. They’re taking advantage of it to see, listen and learn. “(Leslie Caron)
“I want to congratulate Angelina because it’s been a very long time since I’ve been in this business and I’ve never met a person who has such a good balance between family life, humanitarian efforts, ..and all the extraordinary work that she does in addition to this.” (Dustin Hoffman)
“I think her humanitarian position has just changed the way actresses and people in the industry think about what they can actually do … to help the world,” (Marc Bauer)
“Angelina Jolie…just seeing an actress who has been through it all and who doesn’t care what other people say about her — someone who has forged her own path.” (Olivia Wilde)
Brad to be seduced by Angelina and went along her seduction meant only one thing at that time,Brad didn’t love Jennifer,his marriage was crumbling at that time.He even told Jennifer about his attraction to Angelina,ask Courtney her BFF.Seduction or not,they were meant to be together as partners,look at where they are now and look at Jennifer.Who has a more productive life!!!Isn’t it obvious?
Trash!!! Trash!!! Trash!!! They need money to survive, so writing up malicious accusations will put food in their stomach! !! These needs to be controlled and magazines & their editors should be held liable in the court of law for the veracity of their reports. These are deceiving the public & prosecution of their carelesness should be a top priority!
Angelina has more important issues to tackle than these outrageously maligning accusations.
My advise to thsese tactless media, change before it’s too late!
Brad is more contented and happy as a man & human being who goes hand in hand with his beloved partner in helping the needy around the world. It shows in his interview with Oprah! He has a more valuable life now & this path he freely chose as an adult.
There is nothing to it other than, he fell out of love & refused to be manipulated by the ex.
Brad is happy & contented that he found the true love of his life! He refused to be manipulated by an ex, & fell out of love, that’s all there is to it!

Angelina looked sooo much better at the time of that pic….WHAT happened to her
Fake mimi you are so stupid and a coward. You and a your pathetic ass should get off this blog. Angie is gorgeous and you know it and it kills you and all the others like you that she is that is why you hate her. Well you can’t take away what God has given her. It is not her fault that you are born ugly and still left on the shelf. Hate and depression ages you may be, if you stop hating all the wrinkles on your face might start to fade away.

bahahahahhahaa…. dayum
If you asked your husband, at the time, if he was flirting with
Angelina, on the set of Mr. and Mrs. Smith,
and your husband had told you “yes,” What would you have done.
Well, I would have made time stand still, until I had gotten the
two of them together for a real serious talk.
I would have had it out, between the three of us.
I would have made sure that things did not go any further,
if I had to drop everything, until I had made it clear to Brad
and Angelina that I would be on the set, until the movie was
finished!!
But what did Jennifer Aniston do, instead???
And do not TELL me that the message did not register
loud and clear, when everyone heard that Brad had become
Angelina’s private director!!! (Angelina and the actual movie
Director had a big falling out, or so it was reported, by a source.)
The phone calls. The admission that he was attracted to Angelina…
IMO, I think that Jen knew all along, and that she welcomed the
idea of being a free woman, so that she could work on her career
with total abandon….and “have it all.”
(Including a “dropped by Angelina, and wounded, but repentent,
ex-husband, that would then be her plaything….in her estimation
of him.)
All in my opinion, of course. Haaaa haaa ha.
Just food for thought.
Did I go too far, again?????
I LOVE TO WATCH MR. AND MRS. SMITH EVERY NOW AND THEN BECAUSE I LOVE ANGIE AND BRAD TANDEM. THEY’RE TOO INLOVE TO EACH OTHER. AND TO YOU MS.JENNIFER ANISTON, I KNOW THERE’S A GOOD HEART IN YOU, JUST STOP DRAGGING YOUR NAME IN ANGIE AND BRAD’S LIFE. THEY WERE HAPPY NOW WITH THEIR KIDS..FIND YOUR OWN PARTNER IN LIFE TO MAKE YOU HAPPY PERSON. GOD BLESS YOU GUYS! LOL
She is a product of great plastic surgeries.
Check out Jennifer Aniston before all of her series of surgeries:
http://www.celebrity-hair-styles-magazine.com/young-jennifer-aniston-hair-styles.html
She is a fake, ugly and hypocritical.
This says it all. All Jennifer ever do is go tanning in the beach. She has a very self-centered and lame life. I’m baffled by people who idolized this selfish bimbo. We should idolize people who does good in our society,a good model for our children. Not a bimbo who does nothing good but be narcissistic,self-centered,and whine about her life.

Do not judge, and you will not be judge. Do not condemn, and you will not be condemned. Forgive and you will be forgiven.
Why do you look at the speck of sawdust in your brothers eye and pay no attention to the plank in your own eye? How can you say to your brother ‘Brother, let me take the speck out of your eye, when you yourself fail to see the plank in your own eye? You hypocrite, first take the plank out of your eye, and then you will see clearly to remove the speck from your brothers eye.
Angelina has always been a *****, sleeping with men and women. Seducing other women’s husband. The B*i*t*c*h thinks about herself and no one other. She acts as ambassador to UNICEF yet she creates broken families and tears marriages apart. She should be ashamed of herself. And face wise, Angelina looks like a cat. An over-drugged-skinny-ass-hom-wreaker.
Angelina is a Billy Bob blood wearing, brother kissing, baby stealing, crack smoking skinny homewrecker. Brad Pitt is old and played out anyway. In my opinion, Jennifer should be happy he’s gone.
JOHN BOY IS A FOOL - thats not pre plastic surgery dumbass thats called the eighties.
JENNIFER ANISTON AND ANGELINA JOLIE I LIKE TO SEE BOTH OF YOU AND I WANT YOU TO KNOW AND THAT IS THIS YOU ARE PUSHING IT WITH ONE PERSON AND YOU KNOW IT IS AND I KNOW IT IS TO AND THAT IS THIS AND I AM TRYING TO SAY TO YOU AND THAT IS BRAD PITT AND I KNOW BOTH OF YOU LOVE HIM AND I WANT YOU TO CHOOSE ONE PERSON AND THAT IS ME RICK MIOLINI THANK YOU
