Insane if true. How will they sort all this out when the inevitable breakup occurs?
“There she was in the hospital about to have two babies, and still she was thinking of all the helpless ones alone out there in the world,” says an insider.
Got to say, if I didn’t like them and I read this comment, it would give me so much ammunition. Ok, I find it funny, but the media really seem to go out of their way to deliberately provoke when it comes to the J-Ps. What’s the betting that the J-Ps will bear the brunt of this, not the ‘insider’? It’s just ‘rage’ fodder, wish they wouldn’t do it.
On the adoption front, who knows, but it’s up to them. They’re the ones who have to take care of them and they seem to be doing a fine job with the ones they already have.
Sounds like BS to me.
In the People article with the twins yesterday, they stated;
“The next trip for our foundation will most likely be to Asia to follow up on the situation in Burma and our work in Cambodia. The boys have beeen asking to go, so we will take them when Knox and Viv are a little older.”
Just read Lola’s comment below.
Like I said in the earlier thread that Lola chose to ignore;
They don’t give a shit what we think, move on.
BTW the only ‘official’ you are on this site is a hateful person with a zero personality.
Take your college degrees, roll them up really tight, and stick them up your ass.
What will they name him? Lox? Crox? Tic Tox?
“There she was in the hospital about to have two babies, and still she was thinking of all the helpless ones alone out there in the world,” says an insider.

ROTFLMAO!!!!
This got me in stitches!!! Best laugh in ages. If it is true, then she is just as neurotic as she was in 1999 and Brad should do her a favour and check her into a mental facility. Mind you, he should have done that when she was looking for a kid to adopt while pregnant with shiloh.
However, fair is fair, this is star magazine and enquirer coming up with an obvios prediction. As the official Brangelina fore-teller, I can say for certain that they will adopt, after all children are becoming their major source of income making more than what angelina made in the last year. I would too go womb raiding if it made me so much money and my whole relationship with my lover never mind my public image was hinged on that.
Obviously sooner or later every one will realise that Angie dearest is a mental case who needs to be locked up. I would like to have a cup of coffee with Brad’s family and see what they think.
Way to go, Lola, for being so sadly predictable.
I’m sure this is 100% true. Adoption takes a while, apparently even for the rich and famous, so she wants to get the ball rolling. And having babies and hormones out of wack are surely adding fuel to the fires of her compulsions. Brad just tags along for the ride since he doesn’t want another break up (for now) to tarnish his image and throw a monkey wrench into his fame machine. Maybe 5 years from now. Hey, he’s got nothing better to do for the time being so he’s not gonna rock the boat while he still has a good decade of leading man possibility and box office draw in him. Besides, he loves his kids I’m sure so unless she becomes unbearable, he’ll stick around.
And that cup of coffee with Brad’s family would indeed reveal they think she’s clinically insane. But you’d have to lace the coffee with truth serum to get them to tell you. They’re too smart to share that info with just anyone, but I’m sure they’ve had some hysterical conversations with Jenn about it!
I thought I’d go ahead and comment before things get outta control over here. It doesn’t suprise me if it’s true. It seems they’re always trying to balance things out. I think they should stop soon.
I remember after Shiloh was born the lame gossip mags were claiming she made some kind of deal with Brad that if she gave him a biological child, Brad would let her adopt again.
DAISY 424
”The next trip for our foundation will most likely be to Asia to follow up on the situation in Burma and our work in Cambodia. The boys have beeen asking to go, so we will take them when Knox and Viv are a little older.”

Don’t forget that she also promised to take a year off to raise her brood, cannot use a computer and has only slept with 4 men. she is a liar and a fantasist.
Now they are off to Burma to help with the cyclone, gosh, there must be a special place in the press… sorry heaven for their efforts. Katrina, Cambodia Vietnam, Ethiopia, Pakistan, new orleans, new york education. my oh my jack of all trades any one?
No wonder they achieve nothing wherever they go. Next will be china with the earth quake victims. They just like attaching their names to the most ‘happening’ cause. Attention seeking anyone?
Thank you, Lola, for being so sadly predictable.
——————————-
Sadly not as predictable as a child pimp who has twins and starts adopting soon after. Mind you, since they are her major source of income and PR , I can see why she would want to.
I totally agree with Geronimo’s comments. & I call BS on this story
I’m not even going to comment in here, after being reminded in the last one that I’m ignorant because I have no degree and that I adore this family because I’m a 57 year old grandmother. I just want to say thanks for that age regression because in reality I am a 65 year old grandmother with yet another birthday coming in two weeks, and it’s nice to lose 9 years, even if it’s only an internet loss.
Can we work on that 20 lb I want to lose next?
Lola; this might be very helpful to you.
Delusions are described as false, inaccurate beliefs the person holds onto even when he/she is presented with accurate information.
Examples of delusions include:
Grandiose delusion: This occurs when a person’s belief about his/her own importance or station in life is grossly out of proportion to what is really true. For instance, a person might believe that he/she is Jesus Christ.
Beyond the obvious question of “is she f****** batshit?”, exactly what would be wrong with adopting a child from the United States , you know, the country she F****** LIVES IN????
Smiles to Syko. Have a happy birthday in two weeks, with a big cake. We’ll start working on the 21 pounds in three weeks.
mia farrow syndrome for sure
Syko, I don’t care if you have a degree, I think you’re one of the most rational persons on this site. I respect your opinion. And that takes alot believe me, ask my kids.
I don’t have a formal degree either, I have something better, Life experience, a high speed computer connection and money.
*Lifting my coffee cup*I would like to toast you.
Happy early Birthday!
They don’t give a shit what we think, move on.
______________________________________
I believed this about Angelina 4 years ago not any more, infact, i am starting to believe that even then she was crying for love and attention. Brad on the other hand has always been obsessed with his image.
Come on, even a child can see that they LOVE all the attention that is part of the reason why they do charity, the other is to salvage their images. Ever thought of they backclash they would have if they were not obsessively doing charity and collecting kids?
Why announce every kernel they donate if they don’t care what we think? You see, years ago when she first adopted maddox, she relocated to England for some peace and quiet and to protect him from the media, she hated red carpets and insisted she always travelled commercial even on her charity jaunts. Suddenly, she is selling her kids to the highest bidder, the queen of cannes, insists she has had only 4 men, has chauteux in the south of France, hops from place to place in private jets and her entourage uses 2 gusslers just to move from one place to another. Her lover visited her in hospital on a daily basis using a helicopter. She has houses she does not live in on both sides of the atlantic. Oh how we have changed in such a short while.
Sorry I digress, I was talking about angelina’s need to be loved. She hated herself for years and thought if she did not do nice things, every one else would hate her too and that doesn’t take hard work. However pleasing people clearly does, that is why she is telling so many lies to be liked. poor rich girl…..
Aw, thanks, guys. 🙂
I like y’all too.
Can’t this couple be left alone for one second. (Star and National Enquirer have no sources on this couple as has been proven. They can’t even agree on where and they have the same publisher.) Good grief.
They can adopt as many kids as they like — I think it’s great. There’s nothing wrong with big families!
Those who diss Angelina and Brad for this are truly warped. There is nothing better than giving someone a loving home. I guess the negative people have never been to Africa and have definitely never seen real suffering.
Sorry Modesty-Africa no, Romania and India yes-and in a working capacity. It’s good they want to help the children of the world but i’m sorry, there’s no way having such a huge family so quickly is going to mean the kids they have got have enough of their time-i take it all with a hint of B/S
You know, just because people have loads of $$$$ doesn’t mean they’ll make a great home for these kids. I spent a great part of my youth in “alternative” boarding schools and many of these kids, myself included, were adoptees and we were shipped off as soon as trouble started. Trouble being just disruptive to our parents lives.
I think there is much to what her father said because since then she has dove head first into this new saintly persona. Homegirl needs to chill, learn how to live without opiates and THEN really take a year or two off and just get to know herself, her kids and her dad. The reasons she has for cutting her father out of her life are so ’80’s. It’s time to forgive and forget and until then, she is going to be a lunatic hiding behind her fake saintly facade.
Hey CB, Perez has changed the rules on his site. In order to post you have to sign up like your Gravatar. 💡
Syko, just so you know: You rock.
I am 26, have no degree and will never have one, cause i am sick. i will most likely never celebrate my 66th. so have fun, don´t let anyone put you down and f*ck those 20 pounds! to cake!
oh and lola: i pity you. i do. i wish you well…but shut the f*ck up.
to all those others, dudes, you know who you are: i hope we´ll have loads of fun here for a while. to margaritas!
When did she say she’s only been with four people?
If it is true I can easily believe it, and I agree that since the process takes a long time they may have started already.
I say they should go for it and make their family as large as they want it. It obviously makes them both happy, they can afford it, they take time off work for lots of bonding and together time so I think they can handle it and are being excellent parents.
Lola you said “Sorry I digress, I was talking about angelina’s need to be loved. She hated herself for years and thought if she did not do nice things, every one else would hate her too and that doesn’t take hard work.”
You hate yourself and you don’t even do jack about it. If you didn’t hate yourself you wouldn’t be so negative! You hate her because what you hate in yourself is similar to her.

what’s wrong with this insane people questioning Brad & Angelina’s capacity to have a big family whether biological or adopted they been both honest from the start that they want a big family besides even if they want to have 20 kids they can afford it and it’s NOBODY’S BUSINESS. They’re not hurting anyone. 😡
It’s their business, not ours if they want to adopt again or not. So what they have eight kids. They can afford it and those kids will lack for nothing compared to how they would live otherwise. So MYOB
I just saw the entire photo album of them in the magazine while waiting in the checking line to pay for my groceries and I was just disgusted that for those few ugly photos they got paid 14 million. I do not care if that goes to charity or not but that is a completely stupid amount to pay someone for THAT. My mom was with me and she loves Angelina but even she was disgusted by this, so she did not even bother looking at the rest of the pictures. At least J.LO’s pictures were prettier and more entertaining.
I agree, sooner or later their will be a another adoption or even one more pregnancy and if that happens, I hope no one would give a s**t anymore.
Um, not to rain on anyone’s parade, but this is bullshit. Americans cannot adopt in Mayanmar/Burma, Cambodia and Vietnam have closed down adoptions, and the children left orphaned by the Chinese earthquake are already up for adoption – for Chinese families who lost children.
And Zimbabwe? Maybe they still allow foreign adoptions, but I’m sure the State Dept wants no part of it. Believe it or not, Angelina’s adoptions have all been to letter (and spirit) of the law.
Other than that, what did I miss girls?
my comment. it´s waiting for moderation. am i a bad girl? *purrrr*
OH… just read the IVF story comments.
Hmmm…
(sips cyber White Russian)
So, Lola. Two weeks ago you claimed that you weren’t going to post on AJ & BP threads any more. Why are YOU such a liar?
If they will adopt again? I think the haters will give sh*t BIG TIME. They’re entire life is devoted to hating Angelina Jolie even in their death bed 😆
LOLA, Enonymous, cara, shane, exiled, xiaoecho – these people will be waiting with baited breath to post on “Angelina’s next adoption” story
Reality Check, how about you shut your mouth and don’t you dare mention me again. I am not a ‘hater’, just someone who gives their opinion and I had enough with playing games with you sad cases. I refuse to have any further conversations with some of you (you know who you are), so if I do not mention you or anything about you then do not involve me in your future comments. Lets ignore each other, how about that.
Reality Check, I think that’s called “Waking the Hater Beast”…
Kaiser – now you leave poor Lola alone – you know Angelina just does it to feck with her blood pressure 😛
Unfortunately this time – the Psych-ic Upset Tummy could be right, this couple do seem to like very defined patterns.
And Syko – a degree is just a measure of your book learnin’ in a particular subject. And well done you for becoming nearly 10 years younger without having to resort to trashy TV programmes and unnecessary nasal surgery
I hate to break it to everyone, but it’s not just “insane” and emotionally disturbed people who have big families. If I could afford it, I would likely adopt 4 or 5 too in addition to my 3 and the one more I plan to have naturally. However, I can’t afford it, so it won’t happen. Adopting is so much more socially responsible than someone like, for example, the freaks in Arkansas who have 18 of their own. If you have the resources and there are children out there who need them and you want to share and have the love and stability to provide, then good for you. If you are a drain on society and have two or three (or 18) of your own that you can’t support, what is worse????
Ooooo…getting catty up in here. Some of you people are nuts. Why do you care so much? The JP’s are not knocking on your door, demanding you give up your children to them. They are adopting children from places they might not have survived from and you want to bitch? That makes sense. Why don’t you look up the child adult ration and notice the 20 something children with one person and the tiny amount of money. I think they are doing a great job of balancing out their family, not yours.
Good lord, I cannot believe how much joy people get from crucifying these two for adopting babies! WHO CARES!?!?! They can afford it, they’re saving every child they adopt from a short life of desperate poverty, get over it! Why does it matter what their motivation is, if you don’t think Maddox and Pax and Zahara are better off traveling the world with Brad and Angie than they were in an orphanage in their home countries, well, you have a peculiar way of looking at child welfare.
Syko we’re both Leos! August Leos rule! And you know you’ve got to be one of THE most level-headed, warm kind, funny and gracious of all us BADettes, I think. Maybe THE most. Yeah probably you’re THE most. Love ya bella!! :kiss:
NOW – I was tryna read through all the comments first, but – I’ll go back & finish reading them in a sec. The Lola-ones I just completely skip, now, I don’t see any need to bother reading the rantings of lunatics, it’s lost its charm. Whatever charm it once had that is.
1. I DON’t believe either Star or Nat’l Enquirer. I think they’re making this rumour up, probably out of bitter jealousy that they didn’t get in on the big baby-picture hoopla.
2. That being said, IF I’m later proven to be wrong, and I think it was Daisy up there who mentioned how long the adoption process takes, than that would make sense to start looking early.
3. BUT – she never mentioned a word about adopting more in the People article; you’d think if she’d talked about her fertility and her plans to do more work for her Foundation over the next year in Burma and stuff, that she’d be doing this, and raising her two newborn infants to at least one year old prior to adopting a new child right off the bat.
4. Star is full of sh*t. Nat’l Enq. is also full of s*it. They’re bitter, and want a little of the Jolie-Pitt gossip-rag-selling money.
DRINKS!!! Today, I’m shaking up Cosmopolitans and Appletinis, with Grey Goose. They’re the BOMB! I make the best drinks.
@ Tammy – she quotes: “I hate to break it to everyone, but it’s not just “insane” and emotionally disturbed people who have big families. If I could afford it, I would likely adopt 4 or 5 too in addition to my 3 and the one more I plan to have naturally. However, I can’t afford it, so it won’t happen.

Tammy, YOU ROCK! Here, here’s a Grey Goose Appletini for you, with a thick slice of fresh Grannysmith apple floating in the top, just like they make at The Abbey on Robertson Blvd. in West Hollywood. That was an AWEsome post, and I totally agree!
The only part of this story that bugs me is that their going to Asia to help the quake victims.
WTF?
Just send a donation anonomously and STFU.
As if China wouldn’t recover from this w/out Brangelina.
I think this whole thing revolves around thier inflated egos… I have a Katrina baby and a Ethiopian baby and a China Quake baby and a Vietnam baby!!
🙄
Damn right, Snowblood! Can’t beat an August Leo – and we’re so good looking too! 😆
It is amazing to me how people fail to do even the minimal research to find facts rather than express any belief in what they read in lying tabloids. Adoptions are not allowed in any of the countries mentioned in those low life tabs. That information is very easy to find, especially the info from China which has been all over the news due to China’s one child policy and families losing their one child and therefore only Chinese are allowed to adopt earthquake orphans. Myanmar did not even allow people into that country to help due to major typhoon death and destruction and no adoptions are allowed, Vietnam and Cambodia have frozen adoptions, Zimbabwe is in the middle of a major civil war and disputed elections and under UN/US sanctions. Any simple google search would have reveled that info. Each child adopted by Angelina and Brad has been legally adopted. Each child is totally loved and wanted by both of them. That is what some of you cannot and will not accept, that they dearly love each other and all their children. I hope they do adopt again and also have as many children as they want to, they have huge hearts with much love, as I firmly believe that every child deserves a loving family. Those of you who want to sit and have coffee with Grammy and Papa (Brad’s parents)would hear how much they love their son Brad and their daughter Angelina and their 6 grandkids as the senior Pitts are big hearted loving people quite quite the opposite of a few negative unhappy people who are found here.
Mattieb!! Awesome post – there it is, thanks for illuminating the facts in re: foreign adoption procedures extant nowadays for those countries mentioned. I just knew those mags were full of sh*t.
And Syko, right? I know, huh! We age veeeeery slowly and gracefully, timeless beauties us August Leos…
ah, there it is. difficult birth for one comment. i am a leo too!
Enonymous:
Yeah you’re not a hater you love Angie.. You LOVE TO HATE Angelina Jolie LOL. Seriously hag if you had enough of playing game with the SAD fans maybe you ought to ….DISAPPEAR FOREVER??? ducking and leaving in a hurry …hahahaheee bbl people! 😆
Anni, I am sorry to hear about your illness. Here’s to your health 😉
I dont hate Angelina, in fact I am pleased and thankful for all the charity work she has done. I wish there were more like her in that
respect.
And yes I do charity work myself, with the disabled, mentally retarded and autistic. About 20 hours a week actually.
I just think Angelina’s impulsive in many categories, including kids and tattoos. And I think Brad might be stuck with her for a while, thanks to the kids (and him not wanting any more bad press for leaving a woman).
But I don’t hate Angelina or Brad. They are both good souls in my opinion. But I do get the feeling Brad’s family is not real hip to her and remain closer to Jenn. But what do I know……. 😉
I thought you probably were, Anni, you have too much class to be anything else. 😆
Anni’s lost post: “Syko, just so you know: You rock.
I am 26, have no degree and will never have one, cause i am sick. i will most likely never celebrate my 66th. so have fun, don´t let anyone put you down and f**k those 20 pounds! to cake!
oh and lola: i pity you. i do. i wish you well…but shut the f**k up.
to all those others, dudes, you know who you are: i hope we´ll have loads of fun here for a while. to margaritas! ”
That was Anni’s post which got buried up above, since it took a while to clear customs here today. Just thought I’d pull the post down, you know, help a sista out…
Reality Check calm down, if you check my previous post, I have never said anything hateful about Angelina or Brad or any of the kids personally. So no, no ‘hater’ here, just someone who has various opinions. Also, Reality Check darling I suggest you take my advise from my first post and STFU about me and don’t you dare tell me if and what to write about people that YOU do not even know and will never meet.
What seems sad to me is that some of you (you know who you are) will repeatedly pick fights with strangers on the net for the most random stuff in order to feel a void in your sad lives. I suppose this fights are the only highlight of your day, right? Of course it is.
Look, I honestly do not want to fight anymore because I feel like I am badmouthing and being mean to a group of retarded people.
thanks snowblood. and thank you daisy.
well yes, i am a leo and i am pretty much living up to it. august 14th anyone?
Anni, I am sincerely sorry – I knew you were sick and hospitalized, but did not realize it was so serious.
But – sorry, I’m August 19. And I gave birth to two of my kids on August 17 – 8 years apart and totally unscheduled, it just happened. It was great fun rushing around to hurry up with S’s birthday party when I realized I was in labor with M. Then S grew up and married a man born on August 13, whose father was born on August 18 – it’s like Christmas in August for my family!
I want to point out that Shane up there has actually posted something in which he/she says they don’t really like A&B that much, but they actually managed not to sound INSANE with jealousy and unresolved issues in the process.
THAT was a normal “hey I don’t really like them all that much” post.
Hatertrolls, take note.
That being said, I’ve long thought they’d adopt two more and end up with eight, three bio and five adopted. I do think this story is probably complete bullshit, mostly because they listed countries no one can adopt from. How gullible do they think people are? Wait, don’t answer that, LOL.
It’s a bit early here, but I’d love a nice appletini!
Anni, miracle worker, that post of yours just about cancels out all the shitty, begrudging crap ones on here. A nice big fat kick in the teeth to negativity and a big shout out to LIFE.
Nothing like a bit of much-needed perspective. Thank you for that, big cheer and raised glass to you and best wishes on your ongoing health.
Mattieb, I think you have your facts wrong. I know several people who have adopted Chinese babies. As long as you want a girl, it is possible. Since in Chinese culture girls are of no value, they will permit foreign adoption of them. And since I personally know people who have done so, I know that I am correct.
Now, it did take a ton of red tape and a lot of heartache, but it did happen.
Taurus here, stubborn, but loyal.
Why anyone would still think that Brad is not exactly with whom he wants to be and where he wants to be is amazing. Brad has been a megastar for over 16 years in the shark filled celeb world, he runs a successful production conpany, he works with the best directors, he is creative and very intelligent and very underestimated by some. Brad has the ability and means to live whatever life he wants to and he seems to be doing just that and appears very happy and satisfied and totally in love with Angelina. Angelina seems very happy and content and very much in love with Brad, and like him she has the ability and means to live exactly the life she wants to. They share life goals, one of which is to have a large family. They do not leave each other’s side for more than a day or two at a time in the over 3.5 years they have now been together. They arrange their working lives so one parent can be with their kids while the other parent works. They ignore boobirds and manage to live their lives as they decide. Angelina appears very close to all of Brad’s family, the Jolie-Pitts often visit Springfield MO to see Brad’s family and the Pitts often visit the Jolie-Pitts where ever they are, Brad took Angelina and their kids to visit his family in Shawnee OK, which is something he never ever did in his years with Jen. Brad’s brother Doug and Angelina’s brother James have made several joint presentations concerning Jolie-Pitt charity efforts, the family members seem all close. Those who cling to the idiotic idea that Brad’s family is close to Jen who seldom visited MO and prefers her to Angelina are living in the makebelieve land of Nod. You need to let go of what maybe was and accept what definitely is.
I’m August 9! Wow, a bunch of August Leos here today… My dearheart Dad’s a Taurus –
I don’t know Lauri foreign adoption laws have been changing radically per country over just the past year, alone. I’m pretty sure Mattieb is %100 correct.
GAH!! I have to replace my keyboard, the comma button keeps sticking. I have to POUNCE on it like a spazzed-out Tigger to get it to register…
Hmmm…well, certainly I could be wrong. The people I know did their adopting a few years ago, so perhaps the adoption laws in China have changed.
Lauri, Adoption laws in China were changed last year. Fewer foreign adoptions are allowed. Also girl babies are now more prized and fewer are being abandoned so fewer are available for foreign adoption. Many countries have decided to forbid or curtain foreign adoptions for various reasons, one being that it is more acceptable today in many cultures to adopt.
Here, I just Googled “Chinese foreign adoption laws” and found this from Harvard Int’l Law Journal – “China’s new international adoption law, set to take effect on May 1, 2007, will prohibit international adoption of Chinese children by single adults.”
SOURCE, and the rest of the published law article is at: http://www.harvardilj.org/online/112
Im not an AJ/BP lover…I could care less if they have 6 kids or 600..the kids will all be in therapy sometime or another…I don’t believe that they will give the entire 14 mil to charity, I don’t care what they say..she is a known liar..I commend her for the charitable work she does, and for the money she contributes to worthy causes, but can’t understand the need to call the press everytime she writes a check…Most hollywood stars give to the charities of thier choice, but rarely comment on it..I also think she should let her father be a grandpa to his grandchildren..
Also, the Sun/Nat’l Enq “sources” ( 🙄 ) say she’s going to adopt from Myanmar. Oh, really?
“MYANMAR PROHIBITS ADOPTION OF CHILDREN LEFT ORPHANED BY CYCLONE
Government officials of Myanmar declared that none of the children orphaned as a result of the May 2 cyclone would be available for adoption and would instead be taken care of jointly by the government, domestic non-governmental organizations, and resident United Nations organizations.”
SOURCE: http://www.adoptioninstitute.org/newsletter/2008_06.html
So, not bloody likely, I’d say. Nice try, you lying liars!
someone:
you´re a known liar too. everybody is. i am. it´s human you know? believe it or not.
gosh i am so sick of all this
How about getting married before they adopt more children jeez! I mean don’t get me wrong. They have the cash to support many many kids. But what kind of example are they really leading? Also how about some American kids? I just don’t get the deal with all the kids in this country that need families why the stars feel the need to go abroad to adopt?
george: children in need of a home are children in need of a home, no matter their nationality.
And maybe marriage just isn’t that big of a deal to them. You really don’t need a piece of paper to prove or make better your feelings for someone else. I’m married, but if I weren’t married to my husband, I’d still feel exactly the same about him and have the same level of devotion to our relationship.
So what’s the big deal? We only did it because it was expected. It doesn’t change how we feel one way or the other.
Someone, even Fox News acknowledges the truth about the $14 million or whatever the amount paid for the pixs. The money is to be paid directly to the Jolie-Pitt Foundation, a charitable US Tax Code monitored charity, not directly to Brad and Angelina. Therefore neither Brad nor Angelina will have contact or control over the deposit of the funds, and People and Hello will reap any tax benefits not Brad or Angelina. Again google and find facts, it is so easy, really.
As for your allegation that Angelina is a known liar, what is your verifiable source for that assertion?
Regardless of the earthquake restrictions they still can’t adopt from China, they do not pass several of Chinas strict requirements for foreign adoption; for instance they must be legally married (for at least 5 yrs if one has been divorced, Brad in this case) and they can not adopt if they have more than 5 children under 18 yrs old.
Anastasiabea: Thanks for the nice observation about my comments.
I have re-read my comments – and I’m not sure where I indicated I don’t like either Brad or Angelina. Although I suspect Brad’s family may secretly think Angelina is nutty and prefer Jenn, this doesn’t mean I dislike Angelina.
On a side note, it has been known that grandparents occasionally have a tendency to feign endearment of a daughter-in-law (or son-in-law) for the sake of getting along and having opportunities to spend time with the grandchildren.
I love Angelina don’t get me wrong, but there’s this huge gaping hole in her psychology that she thinks she can fill with children. I think she’s still trying to prove she’s a better parent than her father was to her.
VdanteV, well, if that’s true it’s working – I mean she’s sure proving she’s a better parent, that’s for sure. But I’m not agreeing with you, I don’t care for doing the armchair pop psychology thing on celebs or people in general. But if what you’re saying is true then she’s sure as hell proving she is! She’s an AWEsome mother.
@Shane – I think Ma & Pa Pitt were probably a lot closer to Jen. Past tense. But I think they probably got sick of the pity party. Who wouldn’t?
The Pitts are staying with Brange & the brood in France, btw.
Some people just love being parents, that does not mean they have any negative psychological issues with anything in their lives. Parenthood is not for everyone, it takes up a lot of room in your life for many years. I respect those who know they lack the parenthood wish, it is their lives and their right. Likewise I respect those who love being parents, that is their lives and their right. Too many people try to pigeonhole people as being strange or having some kind of psychological problems if others live their lives differently from themselves. That is demonstrating so little tolerance for others. If one’s lifestyle is causing no harm to others, if one is doing good for others with their lives, who among us is in any position to sit in judgement as no one is perfect. We all have our faults.
mattieb, where have you been all our lives? Love your posts!
Oh sorry Shane. Ok let’s put it this way, I thought it was a great example of someone rationally explaining how they feel about this couple.
Holy crap it took a while to scroll all the way down to the bottom to comment. I wish she’d adopt some American orphans too. If i can’t have children biologically, I’ll be adopting three instead.
Seriously, what the f is happening on that Barbara Walters post? I’m scared to even go in.
Also, to lovely, sweet Anni, my prayers.
Syko, thanks. I drop in from time to time as work permits.
Some people just love being parents– yeah and they’re all incredibly wealthy and can afford a staff of nannies and private care, so that makes it so much easier, I’m sure. Most of the real parents I know who actually take care of their own kids 24/7 are all graying frazzled lumps of anxiety who can’t sit still for 5 minutes if the house goes quiet.
If you have more than 3 kids, there’s something wrong with you- or you work on a farm. 😆
mattieb; Agree with Syko, I thought I had seen your name before.
Welcome back to the ‘jungle’ 😉
Kaiser; I know, huh?? Scary.
@daisy – Perhaps some really devout Sherri fans? *shivers*
Alright, I’m out. Fingers crossed that the HaterTrolls don’t throw another party in here.
Uhm…I don’t get this. It sounds like she has a disease. Adoptitis.
If she wants to open an orphanage why doesn’t she do that instead of adopting and procreating constantly, not giving her kids a chance to settle down. It must be confusing enough for them to all be adopted so close together (+ you throw in the bio kids) and then you get dragged around the world constantly and then every time you go anywhere you need 5 body guards and just as many nannies and there are people with cameras chasing you around. I hope they’ve set up a trust fund for the poor kids therapies.
There is this fantasy that we women can have it all / do it all. One needs to qualify that: you can do it all …badly…or get your priorities straight (whatever they might be) and concentrate on what you are trying to do. In this case she can’t adopt/ procreate a soccer team in 5 years + have a film career + be the female Bono. The second she decided to adopt she started messing with somebody elses life, she should take hers kids needs into accounts more than hers…sje can’t go back now and go “ah shucks, I meant to be Mother Teresa” or whatever…
wow – mattieb’s posts are almost Zen-like 😀
Ok so I read the latest People magazine at the gym just now and here’s what I remember:
for those of you saying her adopted kids aren’t in the pictures, you would be very wrong. There are tons of pictures of all of them on the inside. I think the best one is the one of all eight family members in various degrees of disarray and chaos. Angelina looks tired, unglamorous and happy, as you would expect anyone to look who just had twins and has four other kids.
Here’s what I remember from the interview: Brad’s parents are there to help out for a while, they’re called Grammy and Pop-Pops (I believe) and everyone loves having them there.
They are opening a TB/AIDS clinic in the country Zahara is from and are hoping Z will take over the philanthropy when she’s older.
They are going to take everyone to Vietnam/Cambodia when the twins are older, because Pax and Maddox have been talking about it and they want to take them there.
Maddox speaks better French than anyone in the family, because his schooling is 70% in French.
The older three kids love to play hide and seek a lot when the younger three are napping.
Maddox is already asking when they’ll have/adopt more kids. He apparently loves being the oldest of the bunch.
Z and Shiloh are little mommies and pick out the twins’ outfits each day. Z especially seems pretty territorial about the twins, she loves to hold them as often as possible (Z’s painted nails were adorable in the photos).
Pax looks very happy and well-adjusted, in every picture he was open-mouthed laughing or cooing at one of the babies. Pax and Maddox are apparently pretty close.
They also talked about something else having to do with their foundation, but I missed what that was about (besides the new clinic).
There’s exactly one time in the day when all six are either asleep or being fairly still and that’s the best time to nap. Brad said that if he ever did the family thing, he’d do it BIG and that’s the way he likes it. Angelina obviously agrees, LOL.
That’s all I can remember for now. The pictures were great, it was nice to see the entire family. Shiloh looks so much like Brad it’s unreal.
I feel sorry for Maddox, must be hard on the poor tyke, at one point, you are the only one, loved and cherished, then suddenly all these kids decend on you.
I saw the pictures, in the corner shop, just skimmed through. I couldn’t buy such a magazine. For that money, the whole family looked so unprepared for the shoot. Angelina couldn’t get decent clothes, you would think she would get some nice clothes for all that money. The kid’s hair was wet and they looked like they were dirty but had just played in water. Brad looked like he had not slept in ages and was on a heavy doze of caffeine. The twins look unbathed too. They should hire more help. For all that money, you would think they could atleast bathe the kids and dress up and clean their home. The whole family looks dirty dirty dirty.
Zahara looked very nice though, she seemed excited about the babies. I hope this adoption rumour is wrong. They should settle and raise the kids they have. Brad’s parents must be wondering what their son took on.
wow, its so fun to read the comments that all of you “brangeloonies” have on here. you all defend these two like they are a part of your family or something…strange…
anyways, i could care less about these two, but i am sooo sick of hearing about them and the golden twins! wow, two celebrities have some kids…can anyone tell me WHY this is so exciting?
and yes, it is great that they do so much charity work, but do they really have to announce it every time they doante some $ or travel or do anything? i mean…cmon now. is it necessary?
I’m an August Virgo. 27th. 🙂
Personally, I hate all the posed & Photoshopped new baby pictures. I’d rather see a family the way they really are. Besides, if they HAD dressed up, etc. they would get shit for it 🙁
I’m sad to hear that anni’s really ill. But her upbeat attitude makes me smile.
Welcome anastasiabea and mattieb to the BADettes. Drinks are on me. 😀
yah no kidding-mattieb, you should stick around and post more. very good research and well thought out.
enonymouse is still turning her tricks of dishing it out and showing absolutely ZERO ability to take it. enony-why dont you get it? and then you pretend “im not going to talk to you anymore” and then you do?
mattieb is right-china has a drastic shortage of female children due to selective abortions from ultrasounds to determine the sex. because male babies are prized to keep the family bloorline going on, there were so many female babies aborted or killed after birth or given up for adoption. now there are tons of kidnappings of children, especially teenage girls who are sold to people who need a wife. vietnamese, laotian, thai, etc, are bought for chinese males who need to get married. its a real serious situation.
I hadn’t heard about the kidnapping situation of women in countries near China for Chinese males. I had heard about women being kidnapped to become wives in Muslim countries north of Afghanistan/Southern Russia area (the countries around there with really long names). Horrific.
Carla, did we actually look at the SAME pictures? Where did you get that everyone looked dirty, including the babies? Everyone looked clean, hair combed. Angelina was wearing a white nightgown in all the pics and Z and Shiloh seemed to be wearing matching little white outfits. The boys looked like boys. In one pic, I noticed Pax was shirtless and holding some toy and wearing cargo shorts. Pretty typical looking to me.
How strange that you saw them as looking dirty.
aleach: even though I suspect you are just another variation of the few hardcore Angelina haters, I’ll explain it to you again–I’m not a big fan of either person. Never seen a Jolie film, and the only film of Pitt’s I like is Fight Club. I’ve never thought he was particularly good-looking; he’s not my type. I do think Angelina is pretty, but that’s about where my feelings end for both of them. Shrug.
What IS weird are the people like you who claim not to care about these two, yet cause their threads to have 150+ comments.
If you really don’t care about them, prove it.
I have yet to see them holding a press conference every time they do something with their foundation. In the interview in People, they were specifically asked about it and they answered the question. I’ve seen a ton of celebrities who are always trying to lasso the spotlight onto them (see: Britney Spears before Daddy Spears had to legally take over her life, Paris Hilton, and every other celebutard out there) but these two seem to get it just from having kids. Oh the controversy! LOL.
Which leads me back to the original point–if you don’t want them getting publicity, don’t feed the machine.
shane,
the kidnappings are not happening from other countries TO china, as far as I know. the kidnappings are by chinese people of chinese people to other chinese families (for kids) and in the case of the women, it is usually adolescent to marrying age girls from villages who are taken. HBO showed a wonderful documentary about it recently called china’s missing children. the journalists posed as tourists, and got THE most amazing footage of the smugglers and the families from whom the child had been taken. in one case, a couple couldnt get a permit to be married, and therefore, couldnt have the child registered, and they had to give it up to a child smuggler who would sell it to another family. if the family who bought it was rich, the parents would get less money than if the child went to a poorer family, because the logic is that the child going to a rich family will be better off, this is more comforting to the family that had to give it up, and therefore, they need less comforting money. heart-wrenching documentary. i recommend it.
i forgot to add-I think Lola is either john voight or jennifer aniston.
and syko, dont let countrybabe’s stupid wacko comment bother you. you are a valued voice of reason on here and congrats on your bday!
thanks kaiser…i don´t believe in god, but do think there is someone watching over me.
OMG, I go from one Brange post to the next & back again. Do you people realize I need to get things done around here? Everyone & the pets are getting ignored, all thanks to you people & your addictive posts.
I wish Anni well. Will say prayer.
Bros, I light up like a Christmas tree when I scroll down & see your postings. That goes for you too, Ms. Beaverhausen.
I’ll be back tonight a/everyone falls asleep. Spater!
I once saw a journalist on Oprah talking about the time she visited a Chinese orphanage with hidden cameras. She walked into a side room where a female baby had been left alone for eight days while the workers waited for her to die because they knew nobody would want to adopt her. She was covered in flies, her eyes were infected, and the sound of her pitiful cries has haunted me ever since. She died the very next day. So hey, call me crazy, but I’m of the opinion that people like Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt can adopt as many foreign orphans as they fucking well want.
I agree with geronimo’s first post, couldn’t have said it better.
Gee it’s really nice that they want to adopt 2 (TOKEN)kids from China .How can anyone choose two children from all that destruction .Donating to a foundation or an existing charity that could help more than two would be really great.
Bros:
Well I did google the Chinese bride kidnapping stuff and found the women are mainly kidnapped from Vietnam and brought over. I can tell you it is very disturbing, the trade of women and especially children. Thailand perhaps one of the worst offenders with prostitution of children for pedophile tourists.
As a consequence, what I read gave me a deeper appreciation for what Brad and Angelina are trying to accomplish by giving orphans a safe and stable home. And even entertaining the idea of opening an orphanage. God bless them!
I think they’re great to adopt their kids. It is really the only responsible way to have such a huge family- -the world is overpopulated and while I understand why people want their “own” biological kids, adopting kids who need homes is the best way to have a big family. I don’t think they put emphasis on Shiloh as their biological kid, but I think the press does.
Snowblood and Syko,
Another Leo in da house. My Bday was last Saturday. Happy Birthday to both of you. Today is Mad’s birthday.
Hey Maria, how many kids have YOU adopted?
That’s what I thought.
It seems there are a few more Leos here posting, so Happy Birthday to all the wonderful Leos. We are definitely a force to be reckoned with.
As for the trolls, i refuse to get into it with them tonight. There is one who is being especially passive-agressive.
Don’t get me wrong, I love what they’re doing for kids in foreign countries who otherwise don’t stand a chance. I wish they’d concentrate a little more on the kids here in the states that need help, but what they’re doing is great.
This adoption thing is long out of control tho. People have hobbies, collect things. But since when is it ok to collect CHILDREN? You collect money from other countries, not kids! If one of us not-rich not-famous people tried something like this, the government and children and youth would be all on us like white on rice!
Wow..for a minute I thought I was at JustJared…Its fine if you want to worship these two, but I don’t ..I think that Angie still has serious mental issues..she is constantly saying one thing and doing another..as far as her money going directly to the Jolie/Pitt Foundation..hello..who do you think directs where that money goes from there?????I don’t like her..don’t like him anymore, altho at one time I could tolerate him..I really hope all thier kids don’t grow up with mental issues like thier mother…
I have noticed that more and more celebs are giving birth to twins, fraternal ones at that. Rebbbeca Romijn, Lisa marie, Jlo etc and they are all claiming it is the natural way. What now, is there something in the water they are drinking? me thinks they all lie. But we will know for sure some time or later. Even doctors talk in showbiz.
Oh please, I really hate how people blame Jolie for everything under the sun. Brad pitt said his oldest son is already asking for more siblings and BP has said a thousand times how much he wants a football team. Why isn’t he treated with the same hateraid as Jolie? IDGI!
lookin for the people fam pix I stumbled on some wackadoo fanhate site … I guess you can say it’s the EXACT opposite of just jareds. Anyway, some insane women there think Jolie used black magic to “steal” Brad Pitt 😆
😯 < me while i was reading the comments 😆
bros, again with your overly opinionated yet nonsense comments. Tell me, don’t you and Kaiser get embarrassed on the idea of people knowing that you two obviously (and some others) have no life or a job and the only highlight of your day is picking fights with random posters in the net. Darlings, there are a dozen fanclubs for Bradangeloonies so go and comment there. The only reason that I do not want to get into fights with you is because I know that I will win but in the end, I will just have stooped myself to your moronic level.
How old are you all anyway? because one of you admitted you were like 65 years old and if so, then you should ashamed of yourselves for acting so childish and with such idiotic manner.
Beyond Border, you sick S**T. How dare you say that vail thing to anyone, you are one very sick S.O.B and now I truly hope that you take your own advice and waste your self for all are sake. I wish you nothing but misery. I am disgusted by the type of people you all are, you all a truly sick in the mind. Karma is a b*tch and I hope it gets you HARD.
PS. Never stick your ugly nose on other people’s conversation. Alright darling.
I’m the one that’s 65, not bros or Kaiser. And it wasn’t an admission at all – I’ve worked hard to get here and I’m proud to be 65 and still have my senses about me, unlike many of you much younger posters on here.
shouldnt angelina and brad be concentrating on the kids they ALREADY have? i hope this is just a silly rumor
ps: and why is everyone attacking enonymous?
woohooo!! syko, daisy, bohdi and the likes of them coming to angelina ” i spread my legs for all my costars” jolie’s rescue again!
Well, on a positive note, at least they’re not like the Duggars…yet. They’re up to what, 18 and counting? All their own too, no adoptions!
Read more carefully, jamesbond. In this entire thread I did not defend the Jolie-Pitts family. It’s useless to try to defend against stupidity and anger anyway. All I have posted about here are age, birthdays, being a Leo, and how sensible and terrific mattib’s posts are. Check your facts before you name any names, please.
enony, god you are annoying. you are all of 20 years but feel the need to put down people who are much older, wiser, and more accomplished than you. you call me overly opinionated and then you suggest another poster ought to kill himself along with wishes of misery, which is pretty personal and attacking and something that kaiser et. al dont do, so dont be the pot calling the kettle black. plus, you can’t spell, which is sad. its ‘all our sake’ not ‘all are sake’ and vile, not vail. finish school first before you start trying to school everyone else on here.
Enon – Did I stutter, bitch? Your sanctimonious c-nty comments are a waste of time and space, darling. Perhaps ignoring each other is the only thing we could agree on.
Enon, Lola,and the rest of the silly posters;
I will try and explain this in a way my 6 year old Grandson can understand.
10 years from now when you have had some kids, hopefully grown up a bit and gained some common sense, re-read your comments.
Then you will understand where us ‘older Grandmothers’ are coming from.
Bros; Amen.
bros, It was Beyond Border who used the death comment first (celebitchy deleted it soon later) and second do not give me that bullsh*t that you Kaiser, daisy424, sicko and the others are accomplished, wise and so on, because darlings you surely do not show it in any of your comments. You people seem to be the most uneducated, moronic and waste of space human beings on earth and Kaiser is the prime example of that with her/his ‘vile’ and childish namecalling.
Kaiser darling, to you kiss your children with that C*NT mouth of yours.
I have been reasonable and fair in all my previous posts but you all have shown this horrible side of yourselves that I do not want to associate myself with, so yes I rather ignore you all because you are not worth my efforts to try and reason with you any more and the more you all carry on, then the more you embarrass yourselves.
Agreeing or disagreeing with my comment, you know I am talking the truth. You are setting a horrible example to your children and grandchildren. I had enough of you all beacuse as I said before, you are not worth it. 🙄
It is obvious that you think we are “worth it” because….you responded twit.
BTW, did you read my post?
I thought I put it in terms that even you can understand. You can certainly ‘dish it out’ but can’t take it.
Pot calling the kettle dear, just read your last comment.
*whistles by*
coughcoughsand-in-her-vaginacoughcough.
*whistles away*
One more thing, thanks for proving me right guys. 😉
The comments about “collecting kids?”
I just read an article about a couple who has adopted FIFTEEN kids. They are applauded, spoken of as saints. It’s not the first article of this kind I’ve ever come across.
But Angelina and Brad have all of THREE adopted kids (and certainly have the resources to raise them all) and they’re “collecting kids?” What the fuck? How WEIRD are you people?
And someone mentioned the Duggars above. 18 freaking biological kids. Same thing for the other hyper-large families nowdays (I’m not talking about your great-great grandmother who had 12 kids; those stories inevitably come up).
They didn’t adopt a single one, just pumping kids out into the world.
I’d prefer to save my criticism for those who have children they can’t afford to take care of. Or aren’t even mature enough to raise. Not for people who have adopted children from desperate circumstances (I don’t care what country they’re from, geez) and certainly have the resources and are old enough to raise the kids.
Anyone here who HASN’T adopted has no room to talk on this count. Go adopt a few kids before you bitch about someone else doing good.
Hey Enonymous !!
Still ALIVE baby???? bwahahahahah!!
When I made breakfast on Sunday one of my eggs had 2 yolks. A sign from Brangelina. Had a BBQ last night. Supermarket only had like 4 ears of corn left. One of the ears seemed a little wide on the bottom but grabbed it anyway. Later on when I was husking the ear, to my suprise, there were 2 ears inside. “Oh my god! Get the camera. We’ll sell it to People magazine!” Then my boyfriend & I shot a pic of us lovingly holding the corn. I did the AJ hair as my BF stood over my shoulder also looking lovingly at the corn. Tried to do the best replication of the People cover. When I get that shot uploaded, I am going to put it on here as my avatar.
LOL @ Nan. Be sure not to get pregnant this month! The egg and the corn were SIGNS!!!
Hmm. It appears to be, some one *coughanastasiacough* cannot handle someone having an opinion that differs from hers without going into a nasty bit of a tizzy.
No need to give me some of your attitude, honey. I got enough of my own.
Indeed Nan. Angelina herself plotted to have the double yolk and the double ears to be delivered to you. That’s the kind of woman she is you know. Has to plot everything that works in the known universe. 😈
I think she caused that solar eclipse in China too.
… and annexed Tibet…
UPDATE: That pic didn’t really come out that great. I was BBQing & not wearing any makeup. I said to my BF, “Let’s not bother w/this one. Let’s just take another one.” He replied “Yes, I know but we do not have any more twin corn.”
*** YAWN ****
I should think it takes a l o n g time to get through an adoption process especially from another country, so you probably need to start thinking about it 2yrs beforehand.
With large families, the older children usually ‘look-out’ for the younger ones, which gives them a big sense of responsibility – no bad thing in this ‘selfish’ age we live in today.
Angelina and Brad wish to help as many disadvantaged children as they can – end of story, guys.
Hello there, your weblog is rather attention-grabbing. I’m glad I located this piece, it is really insightful. You might e mail me and we can talk about this alot more in-depth. Thank you for posting, was worthy of my time to go through it.
