April 23rd, 2008 — Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Jennifer Aniston, John Mayer, Owen Wilson
There’s been so-o-o much speculation on who Jennifer Aniston is finally going to start dating. None of us want Jennifer Aniston to be a spinster, and since the home-wrecking slut-ball Angie Jolie showed up, Jen’s been in and out of relationship rumors all the time. I mean, it honestly does look like there’s just no getting over Brad. Now, the rumors are blazing again, and Jennifer might be hooking up with John Mayer. From The Evil Beet:
“On the heels of initial reports that the two were spotted sharing a meal in Miami, we’re now hearing that they later had an intimate dinner that lasted until 1 a.m.
They had a “cozy” dinner at Casa Tua in Miami Beach, and were spotted holding hands as they returned to their hotel.”
Not that “holding hands” is one of the three things that lead up to making babies, or anything. Her and Owen Wilson actually hugged! Still, this is progress. Although… On the other hand, John Mayer is skeazy looking, like a male prostitute in a third world country. Or a random homeless person. I know, I know; I’m horrible. But I’m also picky. Jen could definitely do better.
April 10th, 2008 — Angelina Jolie, Ashlee Simpson, Ben Affleck, Brad Pitt, Jennifer Lopez, Pete Wentz
Usually, I’m not a big fan of the star nicknames such as Brangelina and Bennifer but in the case of Ashlee Simpson and Pete Wentz, there’s just something too cute about it. The two, that are now being called AshWentzday, have recently announced their engagement. Their statement showing on Perez Hilton’s site says,
“We know there has been a lot of speculation recently about Pete and I and we wanted our fans to be the first to know, because you guys are the best. Yes, we are thrilled to share that we are happily engaged. Thank you for all of your support and well wishes - it means the world to us. We consider this to be a very private matter, but we wanted you to hear it straight from us.”
The rumour mills started churning this past February when Ashlee was seen sporting a diamond ring on that finger. At the time, she indicated that it was a promise ring and that he hadn’t asked her dad yet so they weren’t officially engaged. And how cute is that? In this day and age, it’s hard to find good old-fashioned values and the fact that a rocker boy feels that he needs to ask permission from the rocker chic’s dad is just awesome to me.
Perhaps that’s why her parents are so thrilled about the whole thing. And the secret to the two being so happy and in love? They’re best friends. There’s just something so feel-good about this story that I really hope these two can make it in the crazy land of Hollywood. The two have not set a date as of yet.
April 7th, 2008 — Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Jennifer Aniston, Owen Wilson
Who knows? The people on the scene tell Us Magazine that there was more a “just friends” kind of atmosphere between them. That’s great, both actors need good friends at this point in their lives, but at the same time, I kind of think they’d make a sweet couple. Owen Wilson needs someone as nice as Jennifer, and Jennifer Aniston definitely needs someone that doesn’t have anything to do with those assholes Brad and Angelina, with their four million kids, and so on. From Us Magazine:
“Jennifer Aniston and Owen Wilson took a break from shooting Marley & Me to grab a round of drinks Saturday night.
Along with Wilson’s pal Woody Harrelson, they popped by Miami’s La Marea The Tides at the restaurant’s Coral Bar, a source tells Usmagazine.com.
They then joined about 20 pals for a low-key Mediterranean meal in the dining room.
“Jennifer was in a very good mood, and she was extremely friendly to all the staff,” an eyewitness tells Us. “She spent a lot of time with Owen, but it didn’t appear that anything too flirtatious was going on.
“It was definitely more of a friends vibe,” adds the eyewitness.”
“Extremely friendly to the staff”? I know it’s off-topic, but what the hell is that supposed to mean? The whole description makes her sound like she was on cocaine. Poor Jennifer; anyway, I hope the thing with Owen develops a little more. Both of them needs hugs. Let me know whether or not you think Aniston and Wilson would make a cute couple?
March 30th, 2008 — Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt
Brad and Angelina have a way of keeping people talking about them. When it was first rumoured that she was pregnant, they couldn’t just come out and say, “Yes she is.” Now there are reports that this past Saturday, they got married in New Orleans. From Star Magazine,
“Sources in a position to have information regarding a secret wedding ceremony between Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie had confirmed to Star that the couple married in the French Quarter Wedding Chapel on Saturday, March 29. “There were two weddings, one planned and one unplanned,” one source told Star. “Brad and Angelina’s was the planned ceremony. The weather wasn’t good, so we were indoors.” After further investigation, the sources are not standing by their story. Brad and Angelina’s reps have not commented.”
Now they can’t just confirm or deny the reports, oh no! That wouldn’t do for the golden couple. How else are they supposed to get their names into every paper that exists on the earth? I don’t know whether I believe this one or not. Brad and Angelina are in New Orleans a lot anyway because they do a lot of work there (on account of the fact that they’re such good people, don’t ya know!) So, it’s possible they just busy out showing how wonderful they are again. I would also doubt that with Angelina’s latest pregnancy problems that getting married would be one of their top priorities. There’s been no rush up to this point so what’s the rush now?
Even if it is true, I doubt it will last. Brad does have that wandering eye to contend with and Angelina must not realize that once a cheater, always a cheater. Oh that’s right, she’s a cheater herself. Well maybe they are perfect for each other after all.
March 29th, 2008 — Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt
Angelina Jolie, who is pregnant with her second child by Brad Pitt, is having extreme difficulty with this pregnancy. The reports that leaked out a few months ago that the pregnancy was causing her health problems appear to be true as it is now coming out that she has gestational diabetes. From Contactmusic,
“A source tells the publication, “Angie has gestational diabetes. She found out about a month ago and has been trying to keep it under wraps. “She’s sick and irritable and feels heavy and weak. She’s been seeing a nutritionist about it.” Gestational diabetes develops in a small proportion of pregnant women and results in high blood-sugar levels. It is usually treated with diet and exercise and is reversible but sufferers run the risk of developing Type 2 diabetes as a consequence.”
I’m really at a loss for words on this one. Do I like Angelina? A resounding hell-to-the-no. Am I happy that she is having pregnancy problems? No. Am I just a tiny bit happy that not everything comes to this sickening couple handed on a silver platter? Well, maybe a little bit.
In other Brad and Angelina news, they have reportedly been offered ten million dollars for the first pictures of their cuddly newborns. This one too is a tough one for me. I mean, do we really want to use our kids to make money off of them? On the other hand, the paparazzi being who they are, they will stop at nothing to get those valuable first pictures. So do you just give them away and take the money in return or do you wait for people to go through your garabage cans in the middle of the night? Hard to say.
March 20th, 2008 — Angelina Jolie, Ashlee Simpson, Britney Spears, Howard Stern, Jake Gyllenhaal, Jennifer Love Hewitt, Lindsay Lohan, Reese Witherspoon, Ryan Phillippe
Ryan Phillippe and Reese Witherspoon supposedly made the mutual decision to divorce, according to Ryan. I have an idea that Ryan might have wanted a divorce so he could feel free to pursue more celebrity booty, and Reese wanted a divorce because she was sick of him cheating on her. But he says that’s not so! Ryan denies pretty much all of his hook-ups. From Us Magazine:
“Ryan Phillippe wishes ex wife Reese Witherspoon happiness with her new beau Jake Gyllenhaal.
“He’s a good dude,” Phillippe said on The Howard Stern Show Thursday. “I love her and I want her to be happy, and it seems like she is.”
Phillippe described his 2007 divorce from Witherspoon as a “mutual” decision.
“Leading up to it, we had been spending so much time apart,” he explained. “That’s a huge part of it. There are so many obstacles.”
The Stop-Loss star, 33, spent much of the interview denying hook-ups with an array of famous women.
A make-out session with Britney Spears in May 2007? “Not true,” the actor said.
Hooking up with Ashlee Simpson in March 2007? “Again, not true,” Phillippe responded. “I stood next to her at a place called Les Deux, a club in Los Angeles.”
Sex with his I Know What You Did Last Summer costar Jennifer Love Hewitt? “I did not have sex with [her],” he said. “It did occur to me. She was very young and her mother was there all the time… but I was in a hot tub with her when she was 18.”
“I know Lindsay Lohan wanted you,” Stern pressed.
“Yeah,” Phillippe responded.
Phillippe conceded to Stern that Angelina Jolie is “probably” the hottest actress he’s filmed a love scene with.
“Is she very sexual?” Stern asked.
“I would think so, yeah,” Phillippe responded, though he also denied hooking up with the actress while they filmed 1998’s Playing By Heart.”
Howard Stern is such a skeez; it’s not a wonder he wanted Ryan Phillippe on his show. Two guys, that have no respect for women, sitting around, chatting it up. On the other hand, Ryan might be telling the truth about his affairs, and them being nonexistent. At least he’s putting on a happy face for Reese Witherspoon and Jake Gyllenhaal.
March 14th, 2008 — Angelina Jolie, Gavin Rossdale, Gwen Stefani, Jennifer Garner, Kate Hudson, Matthew Broderick
It’s easy to assume that in the world of Hollywood, it’s all about nannies and nurses when it comes to child care. But here is proof that not all celebrities leave their children in the hands of others. Well, at least not all the time. And although there are many horror stories of bad mothers (one in particular comes to mind) when it comes to famous parents, it’s nice to know that some celebs still value true parenting.
Although she is probably my least favourite star, I don’t know that a case can be made
that she is a bad mother. Bad person, yes; but I still haven’t found any proof that parenting is not her thing. Here is Angelina Jolie out with her son Maddox, catching a movie.
From my least favourite to my most favourite, Jennifer Garner has also been seen recently, shopping with her daughter, Violet. I just think she is one of the best moms in Hollywood, if not on the planet, and Violet is just such a little doll.
And Kingston, son of Gwen Stefani and Gavin Rossdale sure knows that his parents are numero uno as they all head to an intimate dinner for three, before the small party becomes larger with Gwen due just about any day now. 
Another fave of mine is Kate Hudson. Apparently, when she was caught wearing the red bikini that was splashed all over everywhere, she wasn’t only trying to tell people that she wasn’t pregnant - she was also spending time with her son, Ryder. Hard to believe he’s four already!
And it’s nice to know that not only are the moms taking control of quality time, but dads are too! Here is a nice shot of Matthew Broderick out for a walk with his son James, and the family dog. 
March 1st, 2008 — Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Britney Spears, Jennifer Aniston
When will the retarded desk jockies over at Social Services finally get off of Britney Spears‘ ass and take a closer look at the infamous child collector, Angelina Jolie. Tell me, please, mothers of the world, where and when is it ever appropriate for a mother of a six year old, to buy their child gum that says “I [heart] My Penis”? Can someone please explain this to me? From Us Magazine:
“The day before Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt finalized their adoption of 4-year-old son Pax, Angelina spent the afternoon with son Maddox, Us Weekly reports in its latest issue, on newsstands now.
After treating him to a matinée of The Spiderwick Chronicles at Hollywood’s ArcLight theater, they hit the gift shop.
Six-year-old Maddox picked out a pack of gum labeled “I [Heart] My Penis.”
“[Angelina] laughed and bought it,” a witness told Us.
Check out the latest issue of Us Weekly for more on how Angelina stood up Jennifer Aniston and maintains the power over her.”
Absolutely ridiculous. It’s not prudish, or oppressive to know when to say “No,” to your kids. Something like that for a child barely over the age of kindergarten is not appropriate. Kids certainly should not be ashamed of their genitals, or taught that it’s bad to have them, or anything. But come on. Christ on a cracker. Show of hands, ladies, how many of you would actually buy this for your kid at that age?
February 28th, 2008 — Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Jennifer Aniston
I guess stealing her husband wasn’t enough. Now, Angelina Jolie has snubbed Jennifer Aniston at the Night Before party being held at the Beverly Hills Hotel on Saturday. US Weekly says about Jennifer,
“She thought it was the “perfect chance” encounter for closure. She said the stress of having to avoid them was more painful than seeing them.”
So, what was the problem? Was Angelina so sick that she couldn’t attend? She does have all those nurses and servants catering to her every whim at home due to pregnancy problems. Apparently, that wasn’t the case either since she had just been seen with Brad at the Film Independent’s Spirit Awards showcasing her bump to tell the world just how much better they are than everyone else.
Us Weekly calls this a
“power move”
but is it really? I don’t think so. I think it’s a case of Angelina being chicken, however hard she tries to show herself to the world as a cool, calm, confident woman. Puh-leaze! Angelina and Brad truly make me sick and I feel bad for Jennifer that she got caught up in this terrible situation. Why is everyone so quick to jump to Angelina’s side of this divorce war?
Power move! Give me a break!
February 24th, 2008 — Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt
Okay, so I’m confused. Reports are now coming out that Angelina Jolie is having pregnancy complications. Celebedge reports,
“The 32-year-old actress, who is believed to be expecting twins with partner Brad Pitt, reportedly fainted on an 18-hour flight from Iraq to Los Angeles via London on February 7. A fellow passenger told Life and Style Weekly magazine: “She started to get swollen ankles and nosebleeds and started having leg cramps then she fainted into her chair.”
And this isn’t the first or the last of her pregnancy problems from the sounds of it. Brad and Angelina have hired a nurse to take up residence in their home to keep an eye out for any further pregnancy complications. Celebedge reports,
“Brad is really worried about Angelina’s health. He is a wreck.”
So this is where confusion sets in. I just can’t wrap my head around the fact that the two are so concerned about her health that they need to hire a nurse to take care of her yet, she’s off to Iraq and hitting the slopes with her children and Brad, who apparently, is a wreck.
So are they really just that stupid? Is this whole pregnancy thing just a publicity stunt? And if that’s true, are the complications yet just another way for Brad and Angelina to step into the limelight? Because you know, people really don’t pay them enough attention. It seems whatever the case is, that we’ll be shaking our heads at this couple for some time to come.
February 21st, 2008 — Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt
Angelina Jolie first took heat for going to Iraq and wearing a bullet-proof vest over her expanding belly. That obviously taught her nothing because now she is seen skiing in Mammoth, California. US reports,
“Skills aside, the pregnant Jolie shouldn’t be taking any chances: “If she fell, it could hurt the baby,” Richard Frieder, professor of obstetrics and gynecology at UCLA, tells Us.”
The entire family, including Brad and the other children, flew to the ski resort in Angelina’s plane that seats fourteen. They stayed overnight on the mountain in a home that they rented. US also has their source stating,
“People recognized her, but she didn’t seem to mind. And she’s not a bad skier!”
Of course she didn’t mind! Angelina took that whole pointless trip to Iraq a few weeks ago to make a stronger name for herself with the United Nations. I’m sure she loves the fact that that picture was shown absolutely everywhere. That selfish motivation is understandable but what’s the point to this? Placing your unborn in danger so that you can have some fun with your kids? Someone should fill Angelina in on the fact that there’s lots of time to ski. And if she’s simply looking for something fun to do with Brad Pitt and their other children, surely they could use their millions of dollars to find something a little bit safer.
February 19th, 2008 — Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Christina Aguilera, Jennifer Lopez
The price has been upped to six million. Well okay, not the actual baby, but the first picture of them anyway. And that’s only if you’re a celebrity as big as Jennifer Lopez. She has awarded the first darling pic to People Magazine, who will split the picture rights as well as the handsome sum with OK Magazine. Celebrity Baby Scoop reports,
“A spokesperson for the OK! magazine said: “It is fantastic for these international markets, and especially important with the immense strength the exclusive will bring to the new launch of OK! Spain.”
Christina Aguilera got 1.5 million from People for giving them that precious picture of her holding her son Max. When baby Shiloh was born, her parents Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie got 4 million.
Lopez who is due on February 23 has recently had Long Island’s North Shore Medical Centre run “Code Pink” drills to make sure that her twins will be completely safe.
February 7th, 2008 — Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Britney Spears

Once again, the world has gone mad. Could any woman show less concern for her unborn child? The sheer limits to which some people will go to for fame, is insane. Angelina Jolie is currently, wandering around Baghdad with a bullet proof vest on over her baby belly. I have a news flash for you, hunny. If you get shot in the vest, your kid isn’t going to make it. From Us Magazine:
“A pregnant Angelina Jolie joined U.S. Military in central Baghdad’s heavily-fortified Green Zone on Thursday.Jolie, 32 — who is on a refugee fact-finding mission — also met with officials from the United Nations and the U.S. embassy.
“She’s here in her official capacity to talk to government officials, the military and the United Nations about Iraq’s refugees and displaced persons,” Staffan de Mistura, the U.N. envoy to Baghdad, told Reuters.
In an interview with CNN this morning, Jolie — who is not traveling with beau Brad Pitt or her children — said she felt compelled to come to the war-torn region to bring attention to the plight of refugees.
“I felt I had to come here because it is very difficult to get answers about the internally displaced people,” she said.
Jolie is a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.”
In any light this could possibly be looked at in, Angelina Jolie, as a pregnant woman, has no business carting around in an area in Iraq in which you need to wear a bullet proof vest. Movie stars do not impress the overseas government. As a matter of fact, religious beliefs over there are similar enough to Christianity, although more firmly practiced, that women behave as caregivers, and modesty is highly enforced. Angelina Jolie’s appearance as a strong, pregnant mother of several children, stomping around in combat boots makes her look more like the Antichrist than the Savior she’s obviously trying to be. Ironic, that while the really crazy people are out doing really crazy things, Britney Spears was committed because she hadn’t slept in three or four days. Wow.
Update:
I love how much you guys actually care that I’ve been so naught about the Angelina Jolie being a hypocrite thing! For the rest of you guys that -love- how stupid Angelina Jolie is, take a look at the story I wrote a while ago, about Angelina’s son being pre-occupied with guns. Musicisourhigh/AThinker, you’re one of our frequent commenters, and readers (to which I thank you most abundantly) even you have to admit, this kind of back and forth opinion on the subject of weapons seems a tad fishy. Being anti-war and pro-gun, is kind of a precarious political stance, that I don’t see Angelina Jolie explaining any time soon. Thank you, Patti, I knew I had some support out there somewhere!
January 31st, 2008 — Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt
Yeah, it’s not like no one saw this coming. Angelina Jolie, and Brad Pitt, the couple who refuse to stop breeding, are rumoured to be having twins. Although the alleged pregnancy of twins is insubstantial, Angelina Jolie is confirmed pregnant by a “close source.” Although, god only knows who that could be. From US Magagazine:
“Amid rumors that Angelina Jolie, 32, is expecting twins, a close source confirms to Us Weekly that the actress is indeed pregnant.
A radiant Jolie had tongues wagging at the Screen Actors Guild Awards January 27 in Los Angeles.
One SAG attendee tells Us in its latest issue, on newsstands now, “It was so obvious she was pregnant. You could clearly see the bump’s outline.”
The source reveals Jolie may sell the confirmation, with the money going to charity.
Reps for Jolie and Brad Pitt, 44, refused to comment.
The couple have four children: Maddox, 6, Pax, 4, Zahara, 3, and Shiloh, 19 months, whom Jolie gave birth to in May 2006.
Jolie and Pitt – Us‘ Couple of the Year – have been vocal about wanting more children.
Pitt said last month, “we’re just getting started.”
“Dedicated, kids first,” Pitt has said of Jolie as a mother. “[She’s] really inventive and great fun to them and very, very protective.”
Last summer, when Jolie was asked how many kids she’d like to have, the actress responded, “Hmm, it fluctuates between seven and 13 or 14… Four is kind of kicking our ass, but we kind of feel like, damn it, we’re up for the challenge!”
“I think we’ll crap out somewhere between 7 and 9,” Pitt has said.
Jolie’s estranged father, Jon Voight, recently said, “It’s wonderful news… if that’s true.”"
Who knows, Angie might just be getting fat. Sh*t happens. 13 or 14 kids? ‘Just getting started’? Good lord, they must be trying to populate an island or something. They’re be an entire city full of their relatives at some point. Wait and see; one of these days you won’t be able to walk down the street without bumping into someone related to Angelina Jolie.
January 15th, 2008 — Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt

You know how, in some movies, you get to see that prime example of a really sh*tty father, who takes their son out to kill small animals for the fun of it with a BB Gun? Imagine if that was a mom. Go one step further, and put Angelina Jolie in that role. According to recent reports, Angie needs a serious reality
check. She gave her sister-in-law’s children a graphically violent video game, whereupon her Brad’s sister Julie immediately sent it back. From Star Magazine:
“[Brad’s sister] Julie was shocked when Angie sent her children the commando-style video game Ghost Squad. According to a family insider, Julie and her husband Rob sent it back with a note that read, “We don’t promote violence in our home.”
Julie and Rob “shun these kinds of violent games for kids,” says the insider. So when they got the present, it was just too much. It went right back in the box.”
Angelina was not pleased. “She was really angry,” the insider reveals. “She thinks it’s normal and part of being a kid. She even bought Maddox a knife-throwing set and is encouraging him to learn to throw knives!”"
So not only is Angelina giving inappropriate gifts to children, but she’s also training her son to be a fundamentalist. Nice. This is a lesson in liberal parenting, that I only wish everyone could learn. When you promote non-violence when in the limelight, and gush anti-war spiels, but go home and let your child take up knife-throwing as a hobby, as well as play violent video games, throw military birthday parties, et cetera, like Angelina Jolie has allegedly allowed, then you have officially turned into a raging hypocrite. And where is Brad at through all this ridiculous sh*t? My god, what a pansy. If you’re going to act like a woman, at least play the part, and stop letting Angie train your kids for guerrilla warfare.
November 6th, 2007 — Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt

Angelina Jolie wants to be a good mom. So despite her renege on how she was going to stay home more often, et cetera, she has decided that her kids won’t be seeing Beowulf, because she looks like a succubus in the film. Understandable decision, but Angelina’s kids are eventually going to see her in a lot of roles where she is less than prudent looking. Not to mention, the fact that all kids, eventually experience the horror of hearing or seeing their parents… you know… Ew. Well, maybe not Angie and Brad, since they’re rarely home with their kids. From People:
“Angelina Jolie may be starring in an animated film, but don’t expect her to let her kids see it.
“I think it’s too much. I don’t think they should see their mom that way. I don’t wear nightgowns like that in the house. I’ve got boys in my house. You don’t do that as a mom,” Jolie, 32, told PEOPLE at the premiere of Beowulf, in which she plays a temptress killer lizard and is painted gold but animated without clothes.
She added: “But when they’re older, hopefully they’ll see it. It’s weird, I’m a mom.”"
How fair-minded of her. But I bet Angelina and Brad get to cuddle up together, and watch Beowulf. Celebrity kids usually turn out to be nuts. I wonder what these are going to be like in ten years.
November 3rd, 2007 — Andrew Upton, Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Cate Blanchett
One of my favorite actresses ever, and ladies and gentlemen, I don’t have to tell you that I don’t have very many, is pregnant with her third child. Cate Blanchett, now in her late thirties, confessed at the premier of her new movie, “Elizabeth: The Golden Age” that she was pregnant again. From People:
“Informed of rumors that she is carrying a boy, Blanchett reportedly responded: “You know more than me. It’s early days yet. It’s due in April.”
The actress and her writer-director husband, Andrew Upton, already have two sons: Dashiell John, 5, and Roman Robert, 3.
As for expanding her family, Blanchett recently told W magazine that she was “not going to wait forever. … God, I’d love it to be now. I’d love it to be next week.”"
Like some other famous actresses, -cough- Angelina Jolie -cough-, Cate is planning to spend more time at home to care for her children. However, I actually believe she will spend more time with her family; unlike Angelina and Brad Pitt, whom are much busier. Nothing wrong with enjoying your career; unless you start telling the press you want to be a stay at home parent, and then go off in another direction. Congrats, Cate!
October 3rd, 2007 — Angelina Jolie, Ashton Kutcher, Brad Pitt, Demi Moore, Jennifer Aniston, New Romance!, Orlando Bloom
While the matter is still a bit murky, it’s entirely possible that Jennifer Aniston is jumping on the recent train of Hollywood actresses dating men quite a bit younger than they are themselves. Jen, who is 38, recently took a Mexican beach vacation with British hottie Orlando Bloom, who is 30. While it’s not quite as dramatic as the fifteen year age difference between Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher, 8 years is nothing to sneeze at.
Jen… recently took a Mexican beach vacation with… Orlando Bloom…”
Of course, Jen may also be positioning herself to challenge Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s ownership of the “powercouple” title that they’ve held virtually unchallenged for oh-so-many months. I can’t imagine that she’s not rankled by the Brangelina phenomenon; I know I would be. Besides, Jenlando has kind of a nice ring to it.
September 19th, 2007 — Angelina Jolie, Billy Crudup, Brad Pitt, Mary-Louise Parker
It was confirmed on Monday, that the star of the hit series “Weeds” has adopted a little girl from Africa. Mary-Louise Parker is just thrilled with her new daughter, of course. From E! Online:
“The Weeds star has adopted a baby girl from Africa, the actress’ rep confirmed to E! News. The mother-daughter duo was spotted over the weekend as the 43-year-old actress prepped for her appearance at the Emmys last night.
“Mary-Louise is such an incredible mom,” a source close to the actress told People, which first reported the adoption. “She couldn’t be happier about this.”
This is the second child for Parker, who has a three-year-old son, Will, with ex-boyfriend Billy Crudup.”
So, she decided to bring her brand new daughter to the Emmy prep with her? That’s great, but why not her son too? I think it’s kind of crap to use children as promotional devices, and that to me, is what these actors are doing. Adopting children from third-world countries is great and all, but there are thousands of children that are going to die this year, that -won’t- be adopted. Send them food, and stop showing them off so your ratings climb, people. Mary-Louise Parker is, I’m sure, going to be a great mother, but there are also kids in America that need help too.
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have approved her adoption as well, and so they would, already having started their collection of children. This entire publicity stunt that is collecting kids like they’re pets is making a mockery of parenting. I have one question for those actors: What happens to the kids you aren’t adopting?
September 17th, 2007 — Adrian Grenier, Angelina Jolie, Joan Collins, Nicole Richie, Paris Hilton
Even though Paris Hilton has previously admitted to Joan Collins that she wants kids and a steady guy, and that her buddy Nicole Richie is going to be the “the best mom ever,” she isn’t planning on adopting any kids. When she was interviewed by People, at Friday’s Kate Somerville White Room Emmy suite in West Hollywood, she said, “Someone just said that I’m adopting four blonde babies. That’s retarded. No, I’m not.” However, she did say that she may want to adopt, but would rather have her own children. Paris also still insists that she and her ‘friend’ Adrian Grenier are platonic. From People:
“The unattached Hilton, who in recent weeks has been seen with Entourage star Adrian Grenier, 31, insists that the actor is not a romantic interest.
“Totally just friends,” says Hilton. “We met a couple years ago [and] we’ve stayed friends. He’s been like kind of a mentor to me, teaching me about the environment and what I can do.”
She adds, “I think it’s cool to talk to someone in L.A. who has more to talk about than all this artificial crap people talk about. It’s nice to talk to someone who’s real.”"
When asked to comment on acting in her upcoming film, ‘Repo! The Genetic Opera’, Paris told People:
“”This is my first time that I’ve actually taken it seriously. Before, I was just doing it for fun, not really paying attention – not even studying my lines. But this time, I’m serious about it,” she says.
“I really tried hard to get this role. I rehearsed. I was the best at the audition. I got this part because I deserved it, and I’m going to make sure I do the best job ever.”"
Awww, well, at least she doesn’t plan to start collecting children from third world countries, like someone I could mention, -cough- Angelina Jolie -cough-. On the other hand, wouldn’t it be kind of cute, to see Paris strolling around with four blonde toddlers? Well… that is if Paris can remember where she put their leash.
