Brad Pitt Watch

Brad, Angie, Maddox, and Pax hit the high seas in order to take a spin on Paul Allen’s yacht.

Wait - Paul Allen’s yacht. Does that sound familiar?

You’d think that MSNBC.com would be a great website to go to if you were looking to hear the facts. This morning, however, there is a strange story up about Brad and Angie taking Maddox and Pax to see the ultrasound on Mother’s day. Could this rumor be in response to the helicopter pictures of Brad, Maddox, and Pax?

I love the idea that Brad and Angie probably brought the kids to see the ultrasound. The story, however, goes on to say:

“Angie was due for a scan and they thought it would be cool to do it on Mother’s Day and take Maddox and Pax along to see the twins for themselves on the sonogram machine.”

This little tidbit apparently came from a family insider - but the family insider didn’t tell it to MSNBC, they instead told it to E! News.

So what does that mean?

It means that you should never trust MSNBC.com for your gossip needs, as they get their information from the same place that the rest of us do. The next thing you know they’ll be quoting dlisted.com, Just Jared, or maybe, even Brad Pitt Watch?! Hmmm…

There are some weeks where there are very few stories about Brad and Angie and their family going around. Then there are weeks when I switch the computer on and my inbox is bombarded! This afternoon, photos surfaced of Angelina, Shiloh, and Zahara in, what I’m told is Monoco. It looks like Shiloh and Zahara attended a ballet class, although I’m sure at their age its more about having fun than learning difficult moves.

Both girls look absolutely adorable in their ballet costumes - this is the first time I’ve seen all three in black! Angelina then went shopping at a local childrens clothing store and had some cuddle time with Shiloh.

And Brad was seen taking a little helicopter ride with Maddox and Pax! Looks like the girls are taking some time together and the boys are too! I haven’t seen any great pics yet of Maddox and Pax, but these pics of Brad show off his Sanskrit tattoos very nicely!

Make sure you click on the photo collage - it’s fairly large. And Happy Mother’s Day!

What Is a Mother?

A heart that can hear
every unspoken need,
Wisdom to know
when to quietly lead,
Hands that reach out,
always helping and sharing–
A mother is caring!

Eyes that reflect
every joy that you find,
Arms to encircle,
but never to bind,
A talent for making
the most out of living–
A mother is giving!

A voice that can soothe
or inspire or delight,
A smile that keeps shining
when things don’t go right,
An angel God sends us
from Heaven above–
A mother is nothing but
caring, giving and love.

Apparently now that the paparazzi in France know where Brad and Angie are, they’re going to bug them as they do when they’re in the states, and while this makes me angry and annoys me, I can’t help but love these photos. Brad, Angelina, and all of the kids went for a walk near Bono’s home in the south of France on Sunday (I don’t know if it’s Sunday OUR time or THEIR time - I’m horrible with time zones). David Howell Evans, guitarist and back up vocalist for U2, was with them and had some fun playing with the kids in the sun and the sand. And let me say right now that I love Angie’s colorful dress - it looks beautiful and oh so comfortable - I want one!

Evans and Brad, being gentlemen, where right there, ready to lend a hand when Angie wanted to get up from her rocky perch. Zahara was hanging out with Mommy, Pax was getting tossed in the air and dumped in the ocean by Daddy, and Maddox was taking a dip in the water. Family fun looks to have been had by all!

So while I’m sad that they can’t have all of the private time that they love, I am happy to see that they’re looking happy and healthy and like they’re having a very relaxing vacation!

Enjoy the photos, and, as always, click on the thumbnails to see the full photo!

France has some pretty strict laws about what the paparazzi are and are not allowed to do. Apparently, however, some member of the paparazzo were able to get some shots of Angie, Brad, and the kiddos at their villa in France. I feel bad putting these up, but I am very happy that it looks like they are enjoying themselves. And does Brad go nowhere without his hat? It also looks like we get to see pics of the new Nanny…I’ve never seen her before, have you?

And have you seen the villa they’re stying in? Oh lord I’d LOVE to just tour it, let alone stay in it!

Enjoy the photos Jolie-Pitt fans, and have a great weekend!

Looks like Brad and Angie took the kiddos to the movie theater the other day!

Guesses around the net are that they took Zahara, Maddox, and Pax to see either Horton Hears a Who or Nim’s Island. I’m guessing, since they brought Zahara, that it was Horton Hears a Who.

“But where is Shiloh?” Everyone is asking where the smallest Jolie-Pitt is. My guess? At home taking a nap. Have you ever tried to bring a toddler to the movie theater? No.Thank.You. Little ones don’t have the patience to sit through a whole movie, and they shouldn’t!

It doesn’t mean, however, that the family doesn’t veg out occasionally and watch a movie at home with everyone. Add in a bit of popcorn and some snacks and you’ve got a great family evening!

Not one to rest on her laurels, it appears our darling Angie has been as busy as Brad has lately! Angelina, Maddox, and Pax were sighted at the Air and Space Museum in Washington, D.C. on Monday. Apparently Maddox and Pax both asked plenty of questions. I’m guessing Princess Zee and Shiloh stayed behind for this trip. Monday evening and Angelina was beautifully gowned and presenting her friend, Mariane Pearl, with an award at the Global Leadership Awards at the Kennedy Center in D.C. I believe that Angie is also going to be appearing at the Council on Foreign Relations as well.

What a busy girl!

Just plain and simple pics! While the flu bug rages through our household, I’ve managed to steal a few hours away from tending to my sick seven year old in order to catch up with our favorite family!

Looks like Brad and Angie got out with the three oldest children yesterday. They stopped at a Shell for some snacks and a few other stores!

Looks like Maddox is learning how to spend/save his own money! He walked out of a GameStop (one of my favorite stores) with a package and his wallet! I wonder what game he bought! If he’s a Nintendo/Mario fan, hopefully it’s Super Smash Bros. Brawl - that game is seriously awesome.

Looks like Angie, on the other hand, stopped at a GNC. We don’t have those around here - do they sell prenatal vitamins at a GNC? She looks absolutely stunning and extremely healthy! Enjoy the photos Jolie-Pitt fans!

Hot off the heels of the “Angelina and Brad are expecting twins” post that I threw on right before I rushed out the door to go to the vets a few hours ago comes a new, very odd post on Dlisted. Dlisted not only talks about the twin rumor, it also talks about what they are planning on naming the girl half of the twins.

According to Dlisted, actress Sarah Bolger from The Spiderwick Chronicles has been talking about how Angelina is planning on naming her daughter Malory - the name of her character in the movie - because she and Maddox love the movie.

“Angelina is saying in interviews that if one of the twins is a girl Maddox gets to name her and he has said Mallory because it’s his favourite movie at the moment.” The teen actress said.

Wait - huh? She’s never even confirmed that they’re twins, and this teenie-bopper has figured out the name? We all know that Angie took Maddox to see the movie a short time ago, but, I repeat, WHAT? But wait, she had more to say:

“I was shocked because he’s a boy and I thought he would have liked Jared or Simon (Mallory’s twin brothers in the movie). So now I am crossing my fingers that they have a girl. I would love to go up to Angelina Jolie and go ‘Your kid is named after me’. That would be the best thing in the world.”

Alright, now you just KNOW that the tabloid magazines are going to get a hold of the photos of Shi crying and are going to say something like this: Shiloh crying because of paparazzi - Brad and Angie bad parents? when we all now know that Shiloh was crying because she fell down! I’ve got a few more photos for you this morning.

I love this photo, because its not a mega celebrity on the red carpet, or a superstar buying out the store, its simply a mother comforting her daughter.

And who’s this? I’m pretty sure that it is either a nanny or a family friend (I’m guessing Nanny).

Like most toddlers, Shiloh doesn’t walk, she RUNS!

Okay, mystery solved! See the woman in the back with the Jalapeno shirt? I think she’s the same nanny they had in France last year - and the other woman is, I believe, the Nanny they had in New York. So I’m GUESSING (just a guess here people) that they’ve got both Nannies with them in Texas - probably due to Angie’s pregnancy.

Okay, I’m melting here! Seriously! How can you look at this photo and NOT want to just smile?!

My favorite Jolie-Pitt picture supplier hasn’t had many photos lately, but they are redeeming themselves today! I’ve got TONS more photos of Angelina taking the kids to the store yesterday, and I think I figured out what made Shiloh cry - she’s got a pretty nasty little bump on her left knee - you can see it in the last photo in this set. She doesn’t have a scrape on her knee in the earlier photos, so I’m guessing, like all toddler do, she fell down and got a bit scraped up. Looks like Mom has it under control pretty quickly, though! Good to know that she’s not crying at the paparazzi - I’d be really mad if they made those kids scared or made them cry! I know Brad and Angie try to make the cameras that constantly surround them a game, but those kiddos do not need the paparazzi constantly in their face. It looks like this pap used a long lens, so kudos to him!

I had to put the photos all in thumbnails because there are so many, but just click to be brought to the larger version - and they are definitely gorgeous!

*UPDATE* I just heard from Brad’s publicist and it is confirmed that Brad and Angelina were not at the natural food conference the other day. Good eye Jolie-Pitt fans!!

Guess what Jolie-Pitt fans? Angie and the kiddos were absolutely in New Orleans, and an intrepid photographer caught them at a store getting the kiddos some snacks! Just your average, ordinary, every-day, always expanding family! Angie had all four and a half (heh) of the kiddos and it looks like someone likes Cheeto’s! Definite goodness! Shiloh appeared to have had a rough time for it for a minute, but looks like mom was able to calm her down. Don’t forget: Shiloh’s almost 2, and every parent knows that the terrible two’s always start before the second birthday - and sometimes they last until the child is a teenager!! But it looks like the five of them had a nice little walk. They all look healthy and happy and Zee is getting HUGE! She’s almost as tall as Pax!

Meanwhile, Dad was hanging out with Bill Clinton for the Clinton Global Initiative University. They got some business done and took some time to shake hands and talk to the people. Looks like both of the parental figures in the family had a very filling day!

Sorry I’m so late in posting this morning - it’s a Thursday that feels like a Monday! Anyway, Angie took Maddox, Pax, and Zahara to the set of Tree of Life yesterday! Looks like they had a great time riding around on a little scooter and having fun! I love Zee’s pink helmet, and that is a beautiful dog near them…wonder if they’ve adopted a dog?! Who knows! Angie, of course, looks gorgeous as always - I can only assume that it’s warm in Texas, as we keep seeing her in spaghetti-strap loose dresses. Ha! What I wouldn’t give for that - its about 30 degrees here in Vermont! Brrrr!!

Photos are from Flynetonline - I’ll keep looking for ones without a watermark on them!

Disclaimer: this is my personal opinion - not any sort of defense or bash against anyone

Okay, I’m fed up. Remember a year or so ago when Brad and Angie were getting flack because they didn’t know how to “properly” take care of Zahara’s hair? I think Zahara’s hair always looks gorgeous. Why, however, is Brad and Angie getting ratted on when other celebrities let their daughters look like this:

Oops - sorry - my bad - that’s a boy. Now, I love Celine Dion as much as anyone else, but she seriously needs to take some shears to her seven year old son’s hair! But it isn’t just Celine who has fallen under this strange spell of long-haired boys…other celebrities have as well!

Kate! Oh Kate - as much as I love you and your entire family, it really bothers me that Ryder’s hair is so long that he looks like your daughter walking down the street!

Now, there are ways to cut a boys hair so that it is long but that he still looks like a boy - these celebrities? AREN’T DOING THAT. They are letting their children’s hair grow and get styled like a girl’s hair. Another case in point?

Cindy! My husband has an eternal crush on Cindy Crawford, but doesn’t her son Presley’s haircut look remarkably like her daughter’s haircut? What is going on with these people! Why can’t they let their little boys look like little boys!

Like, say, THESE little boys:

I’m not a huge Posh/Becks fan (although Beckham is extremely hot), but I love the fact that all three of their little boys look like LITTLE BOYS. They also seem like they are very well-mannered as well.

Or how about THESE little boys?

Maddox and Pax always look like boys! They, of course, also look very well mannered.

My point is that I keep seeing celebrity boys who look more like celebrity girls than anything else and I’m sick of having to figure out if they have a daughter or a son! As I said before, it is possible for a boy to have long hair, but a really celebs - are you too busy to get your son a haircut?!
