Angelina Jolie Gives Birth, ‘In Touch Weekly’ Reports

Here we go again … In Touch Weekly is reporting that Angelina Jolie gave birth to twin girls at 6pm local time in Nice, France today:

Sources at the La Fondation Lenval hospital in Nice, France, have revealed exclusively to In Touch that Angelina Jolie has given birth to her twins. According to insiders, the 33-year-old had a cesarean today at 6pm French time and delivered two girls. The first baby was born at 6:45 pm and the other at 7pm. The babies are in good health, another insider says. Sources say Brad was present during the birth. When contacted by In Touch, the hospital’s spokesperson, Nadine Bauer, said that journalists would not be notified ”within minutes” after the birth and that the only way they would be told was by a press release posted on the hospital Web site. Another insider adds that Angelina is expected to leave the hospital with her newborns within 48 hours. Angelina checked into the seafront hospital earlier this month in anticipation of the twins arrival.

If true, this is amazing news — it would mean that Brangelina‘s twin babies and I will share the same birthday!!! Of course, this report must be taken with a grain of salt, we’ve already been thru one erroneous report of the Brangelina twins. More deets if and when they become available …

Peace the Spork Out goes to the couple's famous moniker
The Death Of ‘Brangelina’

Back in March, it was reported that Jennifer Lopez added a stipulation to the sale of the first photos of her newborn twin babies Max and Emme that stated that People magazine could no longer refer to her as “J. Lo if they wanted to close the $6 million dollar deal for the pics. People magazine complied (as far as I know) and the babies were featured on the cover and in the pages of the magazine without using the name “J. Lo” once. Now, TMZ is reporting that Angelina Jolie is insisting a similar stipulation be included with any deal (yet to be made with any magazine) for the sale of her twin baby pics. As part of the deal for the pics, which thus far has the asking price of $16 million bucks, the couple is no longer to be referred to as “Brangelina:

Someone is going to part with megabucks for the first shots of Brangelina’s twins, but if you want the snaps, you’re also going to give up something else. A source in the know tells TMZ that one of the conditions of getting the J-P twins’ first pictures is that the winning mag is forbidden from using “Brangelina.” Multiple sources tell us the couple hates the moniker — but no one more than Angelina.

LOL! This is so ridiculous. I mean, I guess I can understand the mentality of J. Lo and Brangelina … if they hate the nicknames, they hate the nicknames. Using whatever leverage they have to try and put an end to the nicknames they apparently hate so much makes sense. In J. Lo‘s case, tho, her moniker was a creation of her own — she proudly used the nickname, making it the title of her second album. In Brangelina‘s case, well, they had no say in the creation of the name so they have a better case. Unfortch for them, tho, I’m pretty sure the world isn’t going to stop calling them Brangelina … I know I’m not. The only media outlet that will stop using the name is the outlet that shells out the $16+ million bucks for the pics. And for the record, I like the nickname Brangelina … it falls off the tongue so nicely, don’t you think?

... from the outside, in
Brangelina’s Room With A View

Welp, Angelina Jolie has not given birth to her twin babies yet, at least not as of earlier this morning that is. Here are a couple pics of what looks to be Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt milling about her private hospital room at Lenval Hospital in Nice, France early this morning:

It was previously reported that altho Angelina checked herself into the hospital last week, she is still “weeks away” from giving birth to her twin babies … and here we are, one week down and she still hasn’t brought forth the precious fruit of her very famous loins. Babydaddy Brad Pitt has been showing up at Lenval Hospital for daily visits with his pregs lady (sometimes bringing the kids along with him) but he’s not doing all of his waiting at the hospital … he’s been passing the time with a couple of famous friends as well. After the jump, check out a few pics of the famous friends that Brad has been hanging out with over the past couple of days …

'In Touch' magazine has the proof
Angelina Jolie Is Still Pregs

At long last we finally have photographic proof that Angelina Jolie is still pregs and has not given birth to the twin babies that she is expected to bring forth into the world in August. As you may recall, Entertainment Tonight erroneously reported (by way of a fake source) that Angelina gave birth to her babies a few weeks ago. Despite the fact that Brangelina reps officially denied the report was true, ET remained steadfast in their conviction that their story was true … maintaining that since Angelina has not been photographed since their report came out their report still has validity. Today, In Touch magazine provides photographic proof that Angelina Jolie is still very much pregnant. Here are new photos of Angelina snapped on June 22 on the veranda (some may call it a lainai) of the new Brangelina manse in the South of France:

There has been speculation in the world media that Angelina Jolie already had her babies, but just four days ago on June 22nd, In Touch Weekly’s photographer got a rare shot of Angelina still heavily pregnant, taking a break from bed rest. These photos capture the actress hanging out with children Shiloh and Zahara outside Chateau Miraval the home she, Brad and the kids are staying at in the South of France. While her official due date is in August, insiders tell In Touch that she will deliver around July 15.

And there you have it. I *knew* that ET didn’t have a leg to stand on as their bogus story fell apart all around them (once news of the fake Angelina assistant started going around, I was sure their story was totally wrong) but they maintained their story was true based on the fact that no photos exist of Angelina still pregs since their report came out. At this point, they’ll prolly maintain that either these photos were not taken on the date claimed by In Touch or that Angelina is still faking it (by wearing a fake baby bump, a la Katie Holmes) to make people think she’s still pregs.

After the jump, check out close-ups of Angelina and her baby bump …

Constant Craving

As if we needed further proof that Angelina Jolie is still pregs and has yet to give birth to the twins she’s carrying in her womb … here is a pic of a very large Aviko truck making an ice cream delivery to the new Brangelina manse in the South of France earlier today:

Clearly, Ms. Ange is still satisfying the cravings of the Brangelina spawn incubating in her belly … either that or Brad Pitt has a horrrrrible sweet tooth. [Photo credit: X17]

A Day At The Races

Brad Pitt and his son Maddox Jolie-Pitt were special guests at the Moto GP race in Italy over the weekend. Here are a few cute pics of father and son enjoying some very fun male-bonding time together on the sidelines at the race this weekend:

What a life this little kid gets to enjoy. In fact, all of the Brangelina kids are on track for a pretty amazing life with access to pretty much anything on Earth they could ever possibly want. Most kids have to play race cars in their bedrooms while Maddox gets to play with the real things all around the world. I trust that Brangelina will bring their kiddies up right … I just hope they learn to appreciate the luxurious life they are living. [Source]
