In other Jolie news, I read today that she’s taking Pax to Vietnam so he can hang out with his grandmother. I think that’s pretty cool.

Stacey: While I like the pink, her skinny arms are the FIRST thing I noticed.  How can those arms list a child?  They are so thin!  Maybe instead of trying to feed orphans in foreign countries (which is very noble), she should feed herself.  Yikes!

To answer your question pre-emptively, Tanya, I’ll stop talking about the Brad-Jen-Angie triangle when they stop talking about it.

To promote Moneyball Brad Pitt recently gave an interview with Parade Magazine and had this to say about Jen Aniston:

I spent the ‘90s trying to hide out, trying to duck the full celebrity cacophony. I started to get sick of myself sitting on a couch, holding a joint, hiding out. It started feeling pathetic. It became very clear to me that I was intent on trying to find amovie about an interesting life, but I wasn’t living an interesting life myself,” he continues. “I think that my marriage had something to do with it. Trying to pretend the marriage was something that it wasn’t.”

See.  If they wanted us to drop it they would drop it.  But they don’t.  Even after all of these years, Brad just mentioning Jen’s name caused world wide interest.  What better way to get people to talk about you and your movie than bringing up something that still gets everyone talking?

So was it kind of low class to talk about his marriage that way?  Was he trying to insinuate something?  Apparently not as Brad released this statement the following day:

It grieves me that this was interpreted this way. Jen is an incredibly giving, loving, and hilarious woman who remains my friend. It is an important relationship I value greatly. The point I was trying to make is not that Jen was dull, but that I was becoming dull to myself — and that, I am responsible for.

I don’t know what he meant by what he said or what the intention was…but to me, he is saying, I wasn’t happy.  And that is ok I guess.  He is allowed to want to be happy.  Cheating on your wife, though, isn’t ok, even if it is with your future baby mama.  But I also think he has a right to talk about his feels and not be vilified for it.  But maybe not doing it in such a public forum…what did he think was going to happen when he said that?  And because he is so in control of his image I can’t believe that was accidental.

Tanya: First things first: can we please always say “talk about his feels” instead of “talk about his feelings”? I like “feels” better.

Second: I’m on the same page with you here – if he’s going to talk about it, it’s open to talk about. It’s when the subject gets forced that I’m not cool with. Like, when Jen & her new boy are out and talking about themselves and the media are like “obviously Jen misses Brad”.

Third: I really like what Brad says here: “I was intent on trying to find amovie about an interesting life, but I wasn’t living an interesting life myself” I think that’s really cool that he’s confident enough to say that when a lot of people don’t.

Stacey: Yup.  Gross.  But I suppose someone as beautiful as Angie has to have at least one flaw, right?

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt somewhere promoting Tree of Life, Brad’s new movie which is getting both rave reviews and bad reviews.

Ummmm….

Sorry, but I am not digging their looks.  Together.  Apart.  Its all bad.

I know Angie is always working and has like 17 kids that she takes care of but you would think that she could find time to a) eat something and b) find a stylist because she looks painfully thin and that dress is terrible.  And Brad…maybe it is just the angle of the camera?

Not their best outing.

Tanya: Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie looked pretty good in Cannes so I’m not sure what’s up here. I think it might just be a bad angle. Angie is super skinny but her arms don’t usually look like that in pics and Brad’s face never looks like that either. That looks like it’s some sort of Brad Pitt stand-in.

I also have to say that I love her attitude. Remember how she got a new tattoo a while back and everyone got all in a tizzy that it meant she was adopting a new kid? Well some reporter asked her about it and this was her response:

“Well, if they know that it’s latitude and longitude they would have figured out quickly that it was Brad’s birthplace,” she snapped. “It doesn’t take much investigation to figure that one out. [The coordinates are] Shawnee, Oklahoma.”

I like the she “snapped” at the reporter. It’s like “you bitches stalked me for a week to get good photos, analysed them to death and now you’re asking me like you have no idea what it is? F-U”.

Stacey: What a cranky bitch.

• $5 million on private jets
• $900,000 on nannies for each child
• $36,000 on food for the kiddies
• $1 million + on private tutors that travel with the family
• $63,000 on birthday parties
• $220,000 on private cars
• $153,000 on activities

OK, so just because you have 6 kids doesn’t mean you have to spend $5 mil on private jets, but it would still be expensive. Guess that’s why they’ve both gotta keep working. That and the fact that staying home with 6 kids all the time would probably drive anyone insane (hence the $90,000 fee for each of the nannies).

Stacey: First of all, I would like to know where these numbers came from…$900,000 for nannies for each child?  That doesn’t make any sense.  But I also don’t have any kids, so what the hell do I know?

Tanya: The numbers come from the Daily Mail. The nanny number is because they are looking for a new nanny and are said to pay $90,000 per nanny (not sure how 90,000 x 6 = $900,000 but I’ll just run with it). $90,000 to hang with the Jolie-Pitt’s sounds pretty awesome, but if you want to be a nanny you have to have a few qualifications:

They will also be required to travel between California, New Orleans and France, as well as other film locations around the world.

As well as a degree in education or child development, Brad and Angelina are demanding the nanny should speak at least two different languages, as well as the native tongues of their children.

Lets play a fun little game that everyone seems to love called “Making Nothing Into Something”.

Apparently, Angelina Jolie showed up for some humanitarian work showing off some new ink. On her upper left shoulder she famously has the coordinate of the birth places of all of her children.  To recap, she has 6 in total.  But now there is a mysterious seventh coordinate.

Ooooooo.  What does it mean?

Some are suggesting that perhaps they have adopted another child and haven’t announced it to the public yet.  Some are also suggesting maybe she is pregnant again.  Lainey’s suggetion is my favorite though…that it is the birth coordinate of the family dog.  If you aren’t a dog person, you probably wouldn’t think this is something that someone would do…but as a dog person, trust me, it is.

In actuality, its probably nothing and the public is just trying to make some gossip where there isn’t any to be had.  Or maybe there is something to it.  Who knows.  The truth is probably far less interesting than what people are making up right now.

Tanya: From In Touch Weekly:

When Angelina Jolie recently showed off a seventh line tattooed on her arm, just like the ones she has for each of her six children, many wondered if she had secretly adopted another baby. But In Touch can now reveal that the new ink actually bears the longitude and latitude of Brad Pitt’s birthplace, Oklahoma.

For Angelina, the tattoo is more serious than a wedding ring. “She got the seventh line right around the time she and Brad moved the kids back to LA,” says an insider — and the timing is very significant.

After dragging their kids around the world, Angelina, 35, has finally agreed to Brad’s long-standing request to settle down. But in return, she demanded a permanent commitment — the tattoo, which “signifies family unity.” In other words, Brad is part of Angelina’s family now — tied to her forever.

Here’s Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie taking all the kids to a candy store in New Orleans. Notice the giant bag of candy Brad is carrying? I bet that doesn’t get opened until they’re back home and away from the photographers.

Stacey: For some reason, I imagine this house hold being complete and total chaos at all times.  And that all of these kids are

Sandra Bullock is a lesbian.

Charlie Sheen is a zombie.

Angelina Jolie’s kids are going to kill each other.

These photos could look kinda crazy if you believed the headline, but we’ve seen these photos before. Celebitchy rounds up where they’re all from and how non-violent they are. Maddox is chewing his coat, Pax was excited for ice cream and Shiloh was headed to the toy store. Zahara is the only one you’d have to watch out for here and I don’t think she’d be violent – shifty and manipulative maybe, but not violent.

(side note: me saying that is about as factual as the National Enquirer store that they’re crazy violent. Go figure.)

Stacey: Ya, those kids look really violent.  Especially that Shiloh.  Mean looking, isn’t she?  *eye roll*

Although, I love the picture of Charlie Sheen.  It really sums him up well right now.

Back when Angie actually wore jeans

“I actually don’t own a pair of jeans. This is an odd confession but I realized when I was into building our family, that if I had jeans and t-shirts in my wardrobe, it’s what I would end up wearing all the time with so many children.

“So I had to kind of not have them, to force myself to not fall into that every day.”

Whatever. Jennifer Garner wears jeans all the time and she almost always looks great. I think the real reason is that Angelina Jolie is too skinny to fill out a pair of jeans and they probably all give her pancake ass. Zing!

Stacey: See, its asinine comments like this that have put Angie on my list of celebs that make me face-punching angry.  Even as I was reading this I could feel my blood boiling and my fists clenching.  So angry!
