And this is one reason that I love writing about this family - I’m sure if Brad and Angelina knew about this, they’d be laughing hysterically.
Let me set the scene:
The paparazzi are staked out in front of the hospital, trying to get pictures of Angelina. Suddenly a woman shows up in a window. The paparazzi are fairly sure they know which window Angelina is in, and when they see this woman they believe it may be her. The woman then lifts up her shirt and proceeds to show her pregnant belly to the photographers, as if to show the world that yes, she is still pregnant.
But wait…is that Angelina?
Hmmm, I think not! Angelina has a very large, very noticable tattoo on her lower belly…like so:
Meanwhile, Brad has been visiting Angelina with the kiddos - I haven’t seen pics of Maddox and Pax visiting yet, but I’m sure that they are. I’ve been in the hospital while I was pregnant and my firstborn was at home, and its torture! You want to be with them, but you need to focus on the new baby (or, in Angelina’s case, babies) as well, and so when your child visits you’re trying to give them all the love you can for their short visit…I hope that she doesn’t have to deal with this separation for too long!
Rumors are flying that Zahara may have a broken arm due to the picture that was taken of her and her sister and mother on the veranda of their home the other day. I don’t believe that she has a broken arm…here is a picture of her at the beach a bit over a month ago, and beside it the picture of her the other day. This dresses look fairly similar, only the one she wore the other day had little sleeves on it.
She’s wearing a long sleeved white shirt, I believe, and I don’t think that she has a broken arm. What do you think?
Weeks of not seeing her, of dealing with bed rest and birth rumors, and we’ve finally got a shot of Angelina! It looks like she was outside playing with Zahara and Shiloh - I’m not sure who the older man is…Brad’s father? A doctor? It’s kind of hard to tell with how blurry these are - they came from Entertainment Tonight, when they flashed a picture of the In Touch magazine (you can bet these pics will be in their next magazine).
Wow. Angelina is HUGE! Those babies are definitely making their presence known! Seeing her like this makes it very obvious that she is definitely having twins. I, for one, am just happy that everyone looks happy and healthy! Looking at how large she’s gotten, I would also hazard a guess that she’s due fairly soon! All I know is that its just nice to see her and the girls happy and healthy.
Happy Father’s Day to a wonderful father who doesn’t care if he’s a celebrity or not. Brad always takes time out to play with the kids and has become known as the “hauler”, lifting one in his arms whenever he can. He always spends a bit of special time with each child, and has adjusted to being a father of four (soon to be six) children better than most men would. I hope that Brad has a relaxing and enjoyable day playing with the kids!

AOL has released their list of the top 15 celebrity fathers out there. Guess who topped the chart? BRAD! Brad was listed as their number one celebrity dad, and it’s no wonder! Brad makes sure that he is completely involved with the kiddos, taking time to play with them and talk to them as all good dads should. Congratulations Brad and Happy Father’s Day a few days early!
The entire list is:
1. Brad Pitt - Huzzah!
2. David Beckham - Good one
3. Johnny Depp - I’ve never seen him with his kiddos, but I’d guess he’d be a great dad
4. Will Smith - Another good choice
5. Matt Damon - I’d bet he’s good too!
6. Ryan Phillipe - We’ve all seen Ryan with his kiddos
7. Ben Affleck - Ben? He’s probably a great dad! And husband!
8. Joel Madden - New dad - we’ll have to keep an eye on him to see how good he is.
9. Seal - Seal has taken his wife’s daughter as his own - an awesome dad in my book
10. Patrick Dempsey - I’ve never really seen Patrick with his kids, have you?
11. Barack Obama - I’ll say it right now - I’m voting for Barack!
12. Gavin Rossdale - Gavin is always hovering near Gwen and Kingston
13. Tom Cruise - Okay - wait - TOM?! I’m going to have to disagree with this one…I can think of tons of people who deserve this spot more than he does
14. Tobey Maguire - Haven’t seen Tobey much with his child…have you?
15. Mark Consuelos - Eh?! Who’s that?! Isn’t he a baseball player or something?
Also good to note - Sherry has got a story up about Angelina and St. John parting ways. Head on over and check it out!
To begin with, my lovely Isa made a comment yesterday about the Vanity Fair interview that Angelina did a short time ago. There are tons of beautiful photos and the interview is great. You know that I’m never one to do the norm, so instead of the photos, here’s a YouTube version of the interview!
Jack Black, the lovely actor who slipped and let the world know about Angelina’s twins, said in an interview to Extra that he honestly didn’t realize that the twins were not common knowledge.
“Then I thought [the twins news] was common knowledge.” but was Angelina upset that he let the news slip? “She was relieved because she and Brad didn’t want to hold in the secret.” the actor said. And a belated CONGRATULATIONS to Jack and his beautiful wife Tanya on the birth of their second baby, a son named Jack.
Now on to ET. As everyone knows a week or so ago ET made a huge, HUGE mistake. They swore that Angelina and Brad’s twins had been born and set the entire internet into a frenzy. They have now commented on this gigantic mistake and here is what they have to say:
“This is an absolutely huge, huge story for us,” said Sarah Ivens, editor in chief of OK! magazine. “Essentially you have two of the most beautiful, famous people in the world. We’ve all seen they’ve had one baby, Shiloh, and it is the coolest, most adorable baby on the planet. And this time they’re having two? It can’t get any better.”
It was “pandemonium” at the offices of Us Weekly when the “Entertainment Tonight” report was posted, said Dina Sansing, the magazine’s entertainment director.
People magazine was first to report that the story was not true. Us Weekly checked its own sources and concluded the same, Sansing said.
On Monday, Jolie’s attorneys advised news organizations that someone was posing as Holly Goline, Jolie’s personal assistant, and had sent out false information about the movie star. The source for the “Entertainment Tonight” report was an e-mail supposedly from Goline, said an executive at the show who did not want to be identified for competitive reasons.
Was “Entertainment Tonight” punk’d? Perhaps not, the executive said.
The show initiated its own contact with Goline after hearing rumors the babies had been born in France, said the executive. The person who made the contact was an “ET” producer who had worked with Goline while at CNN and kept Goline’s e-mail address, the executive said. The executive forwarded an e-mail exchange that appeared to support this version of events.
In the e-mails, Goline - or the impostor - said she was there for the deliveries and everyone was doing well. Pressed by “ET” for more information, the person said she could say no more.
“Entertainment Tonight” had removed its story from its Web site after the questions were raised. No mention was made of the story on Monday’s show.
“Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are friends of ‘Entertainment Tonight.’ We have spent years cultivating that friendship, working with them side by side on many of their projects,” Linda Bell Blue, executive producer for “Entertainment Tonight” and its sister broadcast, “The Insider,” said in a statement Monday. “We wish them and their children well. We are waiting to see how this story plays out.”
Does this sound like an apology to any of you? It doesn’t to me! Why can’t they come out and say, “we erred and would like to apologzie to the entire Jolie-Pitt family”? Is that too difficult?! And why are they saying that Shiloh is the “coolest, most adorable baby on the plant”? Hello! They’ve got three other children who, in my eyes, are just as adorable and cool. What do you think of ET’s “apology”?
And while I dislike this cover immensely, I do have to say something - their photoshop tech rocks. A quick peek at it and you actually think that Brad, Angelina, and Shiloh were posed like this instead of it being two (three - fake background) seperate photos! They need to pay their photoshop techs more money…
Many were saying that Life & Style, who usually defends the family, would be upset over Star’s cover…after seeing their cover for this week, now I’m not so sure:
Why does Shiloh feel so left out? What, Life & Style had an exclusive interview with a 2 year old? Uh huh - doubt it! Unfortunately we can probably expect to see mostly junk in the tabloids from now until the twins are born.
Happy birthday Shiloh! We at Brad Pitt Watch hope that your day is filled with tons of balloons, games, presents, and good times with your mom, dad, and siblings!
As always, click on the collage to see it in high def!
Today I have for you some random photos that were taken recently of the family - I was going to put up a huge post about how Angelina and Brad are both wearing beautiful rings on their right hands, but:
1 - I didn’t want to start the “wedding” rumors again, because, frankly, I no longer care if they get married or not (don’t get me wrong, I’ll be excited if they do get married, but I’ll be just as happy if they aren’t.
2 - I found that I was a moron and left my daughter’s jacket at a fast food restaurant that is 15 minutes away from here last night - her brother’s jacket is still missing (I could never travel as much as Brad and Angelina do - I’d lose everything!), so I must run and get that and curse at the price of gas.
3 - I just discovered that one of our malamute puppies ate part of an extension cord that was left outside…still plugged in. *sigh* - at least it was my husband’s dog so he can’t get too mad - I must now try to figure out how to keep the dog from becoming dinner meat…
So enjoy the photos!
Some adorable photos of Brad and Shiloh as they were leaving the toy store the other day (BAD PAPARAZZI! Stay away from the kiddos, will ya?!)
Brad and Angelina took some more time off together - this time to go toy shopping! My guess? They’re shopping for Shiloh’s birthday, which is on Tuesday. Brad looks a bit annoyed that the paps found them, and…what kind of ring is that on his hand? I know it’s his right hand, but still…
Brad (decked out in a new hat) and Angelina took Maddox and Shiloh out shopping yesterday (or today - the time change thing still messes me up) at Bonpoint in Cannes. It looks like Shiloh had a grand old time running around the store with Mommy chasing after her, and Maddox looked to be much admired by the store people! Looks like they all had a really good time shopping, and aren’t those clothes adorable?!
Remember, we’ll be seeing more of Angelina and Brad tomorrow as Angie does some press for The Changeling…actually, it may be early in the morning when we get the pics as the time is SO different! (If someone can help me figure out how that works, I’d be grateful!)
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!
Hey guys! I hope everyone had a wonderful and relaxing weekend! There are a few photos from this weekend that I caught but didn’t really get a chance to put up, so I figured Monday morning would be the perfect time to get a glimpse of the Jolie-Pitt family enjoying their weekend.
Looks like Shiloh is beginning to learn how to swim! Cameras caught her with some water wings on in mommy’s arms. Other photos show Brad and Zahara getting into the action too. I LOVE the last photo of Angelina and Brad hugging!
Awww! Water wings! How sweet is this?!
Just too cute!
They look to be really enjoying the warm weather in France!
So much in love!
On Sunday Angelina took Pax to the doctors in Grasse, France. Don’t worry! Sources are saying that it was just for a routine check up. After the visit Angie and Pax hit the McDonalds drive-thru for some yummy greasy food. I wonder if the McDonalds in France is as greasy as the McDonalds here? Hmmm… I’m not very happy with these photographers, though, as it looks like they got really, really close to the van. Otherwise, its a great pic.
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.
