Goth Angelina Jolie takes Maddox (toy) gun shopping in France

infphoto_1077937
These are new pictures, but you would barely know it because Angelina is wearing all-black. AGAIN. Angelina needs to upgrade this all-black boho-goth wardrobe of hers, it’s kind of insane. I mean, I get it. She wears black. Lots of black. She’s dark and mysterious. She’s still got the soul of the misunderstood goth-punk kid. We get it, Angie. Paint It Black. “I see a red door and I want it painted black/ No colors anymore I want them to turn black/ I see the girls walk by dressed in their summer clothes/ I have to turn my head until my darkness goes/Hmm, hmm, hmm/ I wanna see it painted, painted black/Black as night, black as coal…” That being said, I would love to see her in a pair of jeans and a red t-shirt. Or even a nice little patterned sundress. Sigh.

Anyway, Angelina Jolie took her oldest kid Maddox out to a supermarket in Brignoles, France today. Maddox seems to be getting quite a bit of one-on-one time with his parents lately – just last week, Madd was the only Jolie-Pitt kid to accompany Brad to New York, where they chilled out at Dave & Buster’s. Mommy’s no fun, though. She just takes her boy grocery shopping. Except that mommy’s secretly cool because she buys toy guns!

Yes, I would have missed it too, except some eagle-eyed OK! Magazine editor noticed it – Angelina is carrying a small toy gun, still in it’s packaging. We already know Maddox shares his mom’s affinity for knives and weaponry – even Brad mentioned in his Rolling Stone interview last year that he helps Maddox look for new weapons. So why are toy guns surprising or even scandalous? They’re not really. I’m just surprised that toy guns are sold in grocery stores in France. I learned something new.

Angelina and Maddox are shown in Brignoles, France on 9/29/09. Credit: INFphoto.com

    She’s turning into Doug from Nickolodeon. Except her closet has 10 of those dresses.

    Chickapah chickapah chicka chicka pah pah

  2. Praise St. Angie! says:

    damn, someone give her a sammich.

    on the subject of her clothes, I wear black a lot, too. not because I’m all goth and mysterious like St. Angie, just that I have a tendency to spill on myself and black doesn’t show much.

    I like how Maddox is giving the stink eye, too. did he learn it from Z or did she learn from her big brother?

  3. jule says:

    I never wear white shirts…..I have a spillage problem too

  4. cee says:

    I think she wears black and similar outfits so that the paps get the same photos over and over. She probably walks aroung the castle in shorts and t shirts and throws on the LBD when she goes out. I think a new JP is in ht eoffing. Either adopted or bio I will be happy for them.

  5. Anak says:

    Some day she will have to WASH that dress…

  6. Erin says:

    With that many kids you wear black to cover up the snot, puke, and various other things they get all over you. Some one needs to feed her a pork chop she’s too thin!

  7. Tazina says:

    Who cares if she wears a lot of black? Probably nobody. I love black myself. No big deal on the toy gun either. This site needs to get over itself regards the critical eye on every little detail….not a big deal – the clothes or the gun….relax.

  8. Anna says:

    Being Goth is really a whole different ballpark. Angie isn’t Goth, she just seems comfortable wearing black. Seriously, the woman has 6 children, a crazy busy life, not to mention paps hounding her all the time. Why blame her for wanting to be comfortable (the loose dresses, tops and skirts) and just liking a colour. Besides, probably makes it easy not to worry about colour mismatches. She walks red carpets for her job as an actress all the time, where she has to made up and picture perfect. Cut her some slack. We all love to veg out in yoga pants and no bra when we can. I’m sure at some point she just decided she’d do it too in her free time, regardless of the eyes of the world. And she’s damn right.

    Oh yeah and about the gun thing: that supermarket she was in seems like one of those huge ones they have all over the place in France. These have toy sections. The gun she bought Maddox just shots arrows with a rubber suction tip. My French grandparents must’ve bought me dozens of those in my childhood years. They’re cheap junk but they make kids happy. 🙂 So it’s not like those supermarkets sell guns that are in any way “life-like” replicas of actual guns.

    Oh lordy, here come the devotees. This will be interesting… Kaiser, you minx. I would’ve said it too, but I’m not the one who’ll have 156 angry comments.

  10. Diane says:

    I like the half-eyebrow look. The busy mom thing in France is totally in = )

  11. Praise St. Angie! says:

    Anna, that’s ANOTHER reason I wear black a lot. no matching involved!

  12. MizzExpert says:

    It’s not so much the black~it’s the fact that she keeps wearing the same old tablecloth for a dress! There’s dressing down and then there’s not even getting dressed, for heaven’s sake!

  13. Anna says:

    @ princess pea: by no means am I a devotee of Angelina Jolie. I’m just saying that as a woman (and a woman who has not had a holiday since 2003), I totally understand her free-time sartorial choices and I think people should let her be. So what if she wears the same dress all the time. Don’t we all have favourite clothes?
    I do agree with those who say she’s too thin though… and to think that the camera adds 10 pounds, yikes!!

  14. Kaiser says:

    Yeah, I get what you guys are saying – and I wear a lot of black too! But I mix it up with navy, white and the odd splash of red – it’s just as easy putting on comfortable navy pants and a blue t-shirt, as it is to slip on yet another black boho-goth dress.

    I mean, I love her and everything, but my girl needs to mix it up. And she needs to fire her stylist. Jennifer Rabe is doing her no favors.

  15. Eileen Yover says:

    Not a big Brangelina or JA fan…but can you imagine these two being your parents?? How freaking cool would that be?? They’re probably in planes more than vehicles and Maddox probably had more sky miles under his belt at 3 than I have today.

  16. Annie says:

    It’s kind of refreshing that she wears the same shit though, don’t you think?

    I mean, yea, we kind of expect celebrities to be in the completely different outfits every time they’re photographed. But think of the waste. Most celebs, I’d bet, don’t even do laundry. They just toss and buy more.

    Plus. Mother of 6+black= winning combination. Think of how much you’d all rail into her if she wore light colors all the time. “Doesn’t she know she has 6 kids?! How is a tight white dress practical!?”

    Or hey, Let’s just look at it like this: my mom has to wear a nice suit every day for work, so when we go out just to run errands or whatever, she schlubs it up. And you know what? She’s got 4 kids. If she wants to chill in some black sweatpants and black tshirts belonging to my dad, I think she’s kind of earned that right.

  17. Birdie says:

    Hey now, black is easy to wear… I wear black almost every day… Does that make me goth? Or just lazy?

  18. v says:

    it’s a DRESS, one piece, ONE! so yeah, it’s all black, but it’s not like she’s wearing a black shirt, black jeans and a black jacket, then yeah, that’s wearing all black, but if you’re wearing a one piece outfit then it’s hardly “goth” just because it’s black. What if the dress were a dark shade of brown or green? same idea, just a different hue. get over it.

  19. Sparring Sparrow says:

    Black hardly means goth. The dress looks quite comfortable, good for her.

  20. Extra Sauce says:

    where are the effing twins????????

  21. cara says:

    This bitch MUST tip off the paps whenever she shits outside of her castle with the kids…..and the gun’s probably for Knox. Everyone knows toys are for babies, and Maddox “ain’t no stinking baby”…he’s got himself an uzi! (and “his brother a nine” -Pax of course)

  22. Beth says:

    Angelina said something like she wore black because she’s not into clothes so it’s easy and simple. I don’t see what the big deal is. They’re her clothes and she can wear whatever she wants.

  23. Brooke says:

    I hope no one thinks I am strange in that I only wear dresses, never separates, and that I quite notoriously favor only black; I am pretty sure I have about 40 black dresses in my closet that are all different, with some of those being as old as 10 years and worn to bits because they are my favorites. Universally appropriate and a cinch to accessorize or not as one chooses. Well done, her.

  24. Di says:

    Who cares what she is wearing? She isn’t at work. She doesn’t have to dress to please you.

  25. Tazina says:

    Brad and Angelina don’t tip off anybody. They are a huge media draw whether they like it or not.

  26. Squirtle says:

    Yeah I was wondering that too, what what happened to the twins?

  27. raven says:

    I was thinking about this after seeing Brad and Maddox the other day, but has anyone ever seen Pax out with one of the parents by himself? I’ve seen both girls out with mom individually and Maddox, of course. I’ve just never seen Pax out with a parent as the only kid. I wonder why.

  28. love angie says:

    Isn’t Goth freaks wearing chains, many piercings, black hair and black lipstick? Oh and forgot to include big black combat boots. Ummm, yeah okay so she wears a black dress, doesn’t make one a goth for petes sakes. She looks like an average mother out with her child.

  29. blunt says:

    Angelina doesn’t have to dress up so that her fans can have something to look at when the paparazzi take pics of her. If its on the red carpet, I want her to mix it up too, but if she’s going about her daily life, and she wants to be comfortable and practical, she’s dressing to please herself not Kaiser.

  30. love angie says:

    After reading all the comments I’m happy to see that not one agrees that she’s goth. I read a snarky comment but most women and mothers agree with her style. By the way I looked at Angelinas past pictures and she wears an assortment of colors.

  31. bella mama says:

    i wear a lot of black. in fact i probably have over a dozen plain black t shirts. i am very much not goth, just a mother of little kids and little time.

  32. la chica says:

    so she deliberately doesn’t dress for the paparazzi except when she has something to promote. love it.

    prolly the same reason Brad wears the fugly goatee. love it twice.

  33. Kevin says:

    Goth? So no one can wear black? I think she’s still looking great!

  34. Maritza says:

    Yeah, where are the twins?

  35. Trillion says:

    To quote the great Dorothy Parker: “I will continue to wear black until something darker comes along”.

  36. Hieronymus Grex says:

    She’s ‘Goth’ because of the black dress? Boy have YOU got a lot to learn. 🙄

  37. Pictures of Outings says:

    Raven- off the top of my head, I can think of 3-4 Brad/Pax solo pictures & 1 or 2 Angie/Pax solo outings…that doesn’t mean there weren’t more, just no pictures. Brad said they are “chased out” of places/cities all over the world. Despite the what the naysayers cry, I think they work hard to keep their kids out of pap photos. They want them to do normal stuff, but it looks pretty hard. Brad and Angie both looked very upset when they saw the they paps at the latest fruit store trip w/ Z & Shi- I’ll bet they went there before w/ no issues and now feel they can’t go back. I think something like that happened w/ the LA dance class, too.

  38. Neelyo says:

    Trillion, that’s a great Dorothy Parker quote.

    I think cee is right. Many celebs will wear the same things over and over because the paps don’t want the same picture over and over and as a double whammy the pictures aren’t worth as much if it’s the same outfit. I read an article about it and they had several paparazzi pictures of Madonna wearing the same argyle sweater.

  39. Best of British says:

    I dont think her wearing that dress has got anything to do with her trying to avoid the paps taking a different more sellable shot. She just likes black and she likes that dress in particular. I have to say I think its flattering actually. It hides her bony legs and gives her a big of shape. She looks feminine and pretty. Give her a break guys, she’s just getting on with her PRIVATE LIFE…

  40. fizXgirl314 says:

    I used to wear quite a bit of black and would often get accused of being goth and it annoyed the hell out of me… goth is a life philosophy, not just a color…

    btw, does that kid have mumphs or something? wtf?

  41. Ursula says:

    She doesn’t wear black, she wears that one dress all the time.

    With all the money, you would think that she would get some more black dresses, oh and some food. Oh and wean her child off his obsession with violence.

  42. HashBrowns says:

    i have to say that I wear a ton of black-i have at least 5 tank tops from Old Navy and American Apparel all in black. I have a beautiful black pea coat that is my life. I’ve worn all black outfits (i.e. black coat, black long-sleeve shirt, black skirt, black tights, black Stuart Weitzman patent leather booties which are my fave shoes on the planet). ANYWAY, my friends say I look like a spy when I dress like that, hee hee.

    Anywho, I don’t think it’s a big deal that she dresses in black it’s just gross to wear the same dress all the time. Maybe she has that same dress 5 times over. I don’t know. It’s a distinct possibility. But to me, seeing a celebrity in the same distinctive look over and over reads as “I don’t wash my clothes very often”. And do not give the 6 kids excuse. You know there is a troop of nannies in the wings at their home. You know how celebrities lie about using the products they are shilling for? These people lie about not having nannies to seem more into their children.

  43. Merridith says:

    She probably keeps wearing that dress hoping people will think that she is pregnant again. She loves the pregnancy attention.

  44. Beth says:

    I always laugh at the “Angelina loves attention” comments. She’s not even photographed a lot. I see Gwen Stefani, Jennifer Garner, etc everyday. When they were in L.A. Angelina was photographed maybe 5 or 6 times in three months. I think they are more photographed in France because it’s safer to walk around. The paps and public stay away and do not cause a commotion like the crowds did in NYC. The “she never washes her clothes” is stupid. How can you say laundry doesn’t get done when in the same sentence you claim they have 1000 nannies and servants? She probably just likes the dress and wears it a lot or bought several of the same dress. Clothes do shrink and discolor. If I really love something I get two.

  45. bellebeesting says:

    sorry, I see this woman and think “borderline personality disorder”.

  46. DD says:

    lol I don’t think Kaiser is being serious about Goth, just the impression she’s been giving off with the same old shapeless long black dresses. I for one hope she goes back to her old, hipper style… I don’t like this bag lady look. But at least she’s still very purty in the face.

  47. barneslr says:

    “sorry, I see this woman and think “borderline personality disorder”.”

    Then you don’t have a clue about what borderline personality disorder is and its implications. I’ve been watching my best friends’ daughter slowly self destruct over the past few years because of that disorder. At the rate she is going, I doubt that she will live to see 20, despite the numerous counselors, social workers, psychiatrists and psychologists that have been treating her, along with her medication and inpatient treatment both in mental hospitals and “residential care” facilities.

    You shouldn’t go throwing around serious psychiatric diagnoses in an attempt to seem clever on a message board. It’s deeply offensive to those of us who know people who are actually suffering with – and dying from – that condition.

  48. lennie says:

    Sorry, but I see this woman and I think she is a wonderful person because she is a big star and yet she is able to be down-to-earth enough to show off with her casual black dress and her casual flip flops and casual hair (not airbrushed to death à la Aniston) because she is out there to do some groceries with her son! I’m also proud of my country, look how nobody is impressed with her, even those who calmly ask for some autographs! Stay real Angelina, you rock.

  49. TwinkleToes says:

    47, give it a rest. Tons of people have BPD, it’s not bipolar or schizophrenia. Pfft.

  50. stacy says:

    i like black, but i dont wear the same dress over and over and over. Damn, get a new one!

  51. iced opal says:

    Black is my favorite color! I wear it everyday! Sometimes black pants and black shirt. It just goes with everything!

    I actually wore brown yesterday and everyone at work was teasing my that I had another color in my wardrobe.

    And I don’t think she looks too thin, I think its just one of those heavier cottony dresses that hang on you.

  52. barneslr says:

    Twinkle, you obviously don’t understand how serious the illness is either. The “borderline” means “borderline psychotic.” These girls (and it is mostly girls) are terribly self destructive and just cannot control themselves. Their suicide rate is extremely high. So “PFFT” to you for minimizing what is an extremely serious and damaging mental illness that does claim a lot of lives. Perhaps if you were watching someone slowly die because of it you wouldn’t be so flippant. It breaks my heart to see this almost-18 year old in such horrible condition, and she only continues to get worse rather than better.

  53. Cheyenne says:

    Twinkle, borderline personality disorder isn’t “pfft”. It’s right on the border between neurosis and psychosis, which is why it’s called borderline. It’s not biopolar or schizophrenia, but it’s damn close.

    barneslr, I understand your pain over your friend’s daughter. Borderline disorder can be a bitch to treat, usually because borderline patients are so resistant to treatment. I hope she gets help before it’s too late.

    Ursula, your stupidity never ceases to amaze me. You think Angie wears that one dress day after day after day? She probably has a dozen of them. As to why she wears black all the time, I can think of several reasons: 1) it’s practical, 2) it goes with everything, 3) it’s convenient, and 4) it’s nobody else’s business what she wears.

  54. fizXgirl314 says:

    jeez, there’s so much gushing on this thread…stfu :/

  55. crib says:

    @ Chica it’s probably not prolly!!

  56. Annie says:

    I’m sending good vibes your way barnes and I think it’s unacceptable that someone has the audacity to downplay a very serious problem.

    And double agree with Cheyenne.

    And lastly, I myself own the same dress in like 4 colors. LOL. And how many of us don’t have duplicates of things? I’ve got at least 4 identical white tanks, and 3 red tanks and 5 black tanks, etc. etc.

  57. Cheyenne says:

    Annie: I myself own the same dress in like 4 colors. LOL. And how many of us don’t have duplicates of things?
    *********************************************

    LOL, you too? My staple wardrobe is a black t-shirt with black or any other color skirt or pants. I’ve got black tops out the wazoo — long sleeve, short sleeve and in between.

  58. Judy says:

    Why should she wear something else besides black ? It is her choice not a bunch of wannabees whose whole lives are about what movie stars wear and what they do. YOu can slice and dice AJ all day long but hyou will never be able to afford that dress ,you are never going to look as good as her or have a body like hers or make her kind of money or own the homes they have lol
    So blast away and then go look in the mirror and have a good cry lol

  59. June says:

    I love black also, if it is Angelina’s favorite color, so what? We all have favorite colors, why pick on Angelina because her’s happen to be black. Does this woman get ragged on for everything?

  60. crazydaisy says:

    she is so pretty. sigh. i love you, angie.

  61. the original kate says:

    i wear lots of black, and dark colors like grey or eggplant…why? i just like them. angie probably does, too. big whoop.
