Angelina Jolie on CNN with Anderson Cooper

Angelina Jolie seems intent on starting her own little United Nations. In an interview on Tuesday, Angelina told host Anderson Cooper that she and Brad Pitt were planning to adopt another child, although she is unsure from which country,

“We don’t know which which country. But we’re looking at different countries,” the actress tells Cooper. “And we’re I’m just it’s gonna be the balance of what would be best for Mad and for Z right now. It’s, you know, another boy, another girl, which country, which race would fit best with the kids.”

This would bring her collection to four delegates children after Maddox (Cambodia), Zahara (Ethiopia), and Shiloh (United States).

Brangelina flees Namibia

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt

When the going gets tough, the rich get going. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have fled left Namibia, just as news of a polio outbreak started circling the globe. Samuel Nuuyoma, the governor of Namibia and the one that was supposedly asked to name Angelina and Brad’s new born, confirmed the family’s departure but did not say where they had now gone.

Isn’t that nice — use the region for shelter and privacy, and then bail when tragedy strikes. Hopefully some of that $4.1 million they collected from the sale of their kid’s pictures goes to help those who helped them…

This is not the baby you are looking for

Shiloh scandal

It would appear as though Hello! magazine and Time, Inc have their panties all in bunch over the leaked picture of Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt. The magazine is reportedly taking legal action to keep websites from publishing the photo which they are claiming has been obtained totally illegally.

The baby photos were sold by Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt for a whopping $4.1 million to People through Getty Images. Angelina and Brad both maintain that all proceeds will be donated to charity.

Whether or not the leak was intentional remains to be seen — after all, when was the last Hello! got so much free press?

Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt satirical image

Update: Image modified as satire

Is that Shiloh Nouvel?

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have pimped out sold the first pictures of their baby, Shiloh, to People Magazine for lots of cash. Editors from various weekly magazines were sequestered into separate and un-air-conditioned offices this past Saturday where they were shown the pictures of the new born. They were then ushered out and told all bids for the pictures were due in by Sunday. The pictures were awarded to People for a staggering $4.1 million; all of which will reportedly be donated to charity. The question remains — with pictures already circulating, did People get cheated?

Gwen has a boy, Angelina has a girl

Brangelina by Gallery of the Absurd

Babies are popping out left and right. Over the long weekend Gwen Stefani gave birth to a baby boy on Friday, while Angelina Jolie gave birth to a baby girl on Saturday.

Gwen and Gavin named their new son Kingston James McGregor Rossdale, in an obvious tribute to Kingston, Jamaica (or Bob Marley), James Dean/Brown, and Ewan McGregor. Could that poor child have any more names?!

Prior to Angelina giving birth, rumors circled that Namibian governor Samuel Nuuyoma was asked to name their child, but those turned out to be just that — rumors. Angelina and Brad chose the name Shiloh Nouvel. Shiloh is Hebrew for mesiah or peaceful one, and Nouvel is French for new.

Negotiations are presumably underway between Gwen, Gavin, Angelina and Brad for an arranged marriage of their new offspring children creating a superpower the likes of which Hollywood has never seen. Tom Cruise obviously feels left out.
