Brangelina Show Their Lurve For One Another In Paris, France

French Kiss
Wednesday, February 24th, 2010

Lest you think that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are no longer in love, due to unfounded rumors about their “split” last month, Brangelina decided to show the world just how much in lurve they are by sharing a passionate and very public smooch on the Parisian set of Ange’s new film The Tourist … behold:

It’s not unusual to see a couple sharing a passionate kiss on the streets of Paris – one of the most romantic cities in the world. But passers-by must have had a shock yesterday when they realised the embracing couple was none other than Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. The pair were keen to show their relationship is stronger than ever as they puckered up on the set of Jolie’s new movie The Tourist in France. Jolie, wearing a chic cream dress for the scenes in the film, in which she stars alongside Johnny Depp, looked coy as she pulled away from the tender embrace, but couldn’t keep the smile off her famous lips. Pitt took on the role of house husband as Jolie shot the scenes in a Parisian cafe, and took care of some of the couple’s children, Shiloh, three and five-year-old Zahara, who were clearly keen to see their mother in action. These latest photographs are further evidence that there is no trouble in paradise for the Hollywood pair, following split rumours earlier this year over which they threatened legal action.

I guess it wasn’t enough for Brangelina to put their love on display at Super Bowl XLIV in Miami, FL earlier this month … now they have to flaunt it in the most romantic city in the world! Good for them!! I really love Brangelina together and I wish nothing but the greatest happiness for their little (well, big) family. Love them :)

Angelina Jolie Is A ‘Tourist’ In Paris

While Brad Pitt is the manny
Tuesday, February 23rd, 2010

Last week we learned that the entire Brangelina brood made their way to Venice, Italy to take up temporary residence while mama Angelina Jolie begins work on her new film The Tourist. Just one day after, we saw cute photos of Brangelina taking their eldest daughters Zahara Marley and Shiloh Nouvel out for a boat ride on the canals of Venice … you may recall that some people mistakenly believed that it was not Shiloh on the outing but the youngest Jolie-Pitt son Knox Léon. Today we get to see new photos of Angelina and Brad hard at work in the city of Paris, FranceAnge was bizzy filming scenes for her new film and Brad was bizzy caring for the kiddies:

As Johnny Depp told [mentioned] this weekend, director Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck began shooting Columbia Pictures thriller The Tourist in Paris, France on Tuesday. [Here is a] first look at photos of Angelina Jolie on the set. The film is a remake of the 2005 French thriller Anthony Zimmer. It concerns an American tourist (Depp) who finds his life in danger when a female Interpol agent (Jolie) uses him as a dupe to flush out an elusive criminal with whom she once had an affair.

Yes, while Angelina was bizzy filming her café scenes, Brad was bizzy elsewhere with the kids. After the jump, check out photos of Brad with Shiloh — who was showing off her adorable new boyish haircut …

Brangelina Take Their Girls For A Boat Ride In Venice, Italy

Anchors Aweigh!
Thursday, February 18th, 2010

Yesterday we saw a few supercute photos of Angelina Jolie and fauxhubby Brad Pitt enjoying the city of Venice, Italy together with their children (including their twins who are rarely seen in public) and right now we get to check out a couple new photos of Brangelina on another outing in Venice … this time with only two of their children, their eldest daughters Zahara Marley and Shiloh Nouvel:


Aww now these pics are cute … and considering the scary photos of Angelina we saw earlier today, these are a welcome sight. Now that the Brangelina brood have relocated to Venice, Italy for a spell while Ange films her next movie, I expect we’ll be seeing much more of the family out and about on the streets and canals of Venice in the coming weeks. Will we see more of the elusive twins? I hope so. Will we see more of the scary Angelina neck? I sincerely hope not. I guess we’ll have to see what Brangelina’s time in Venice brings us in the days and weeks to come.

What The HELL Is Wrong With Angelina Jolie’s Neck?

WTF?!
Thursday, February 18th, 2010

New photos of Angelina Jolie, who is currently in Venice, Italy with her ENTIRE family, seem to show some strange skin growths or something on her neck which have everyone asking, What the hell is wrong with her neck? US Weekly, the publication which believes itself to be an ardent seeker of knowledge and truth, asked a few doctors that specialize in cosmetic surgery what they think is going on with Ange’s scary neck … read on:

Angelina Jolie was photographed in Venice, Italy Wednesday afternoon with two protruding muscles where her chin meets her neck. The photo was not altered, as Jolie, 34, sported the same facial protrusion at the BAFTA awards in February 2009. UsMagazine.com consulted a number of plastic surgeons to find out what’s really going on because, as Beverly Hills-based Dr. Gabriel Chiu tells Us, “it’s unlikely that the banding can occur from strong facial muscles alone.” Dr. Elie Levine, who has not treated Jolie, says that it appears she’s “received Botox to her face and likely her neck” because she shows “no wrinkles along the sides of her eyes (the crow’s feet) despite that very large smile… and her forehead is smooth.” Botox paralyzes muscles, causing one to “recruit other muscles that are not regularly used to twisting the neck and smiling widely” to compensate, he adds. Dr. Chiu believes Jolie may have had a “minimally invasive procedure” — such as Gore-Tex injected into her face — to lift and suspend “the tissues in her neck, jaw line and lower face.” Dr. Brian Glatt concurs. “Angelina appears to have had a procedure done to tighten her lower face, neck, and jaw line such as a mini or lower facelift,” he says. If she had a mini-facelift, Dr. Andrew Jacano says the skin was not lifted far enough back. “Think of it like making your bed,” he says. “If you don’t pull the sheets tight enough, they’ll appear wrinkled and bunched at the corners.” But Dr. Lyle M. Back believes Jolie has not received any cosmetic surgery. He credits the protrusion to Jolie’s “very thinned out skin — tented and pulled over the edge of the angle of her jaw” as the result of her having less than 10 percent body fat. “Body builders love to employ a variety of techniques to get their skin looking this thin so that the judges can actually see the striations and fiber lines in their muscles through their skin,” he adds.

At first, I too thought the photos were doctored but further investigation shows this weird neck thing on Angelina Jolie in many different photos. I dunno what could’ve caused it but I know it’s scary lookin’ as hell. I’m not sure which of these explanations could be the right one, all I know is I hope Ange either has the matter fixed or she will take better pains to keep her neck covered. Ick! What do YOU think is her problem?

The Brangelina Bunch Invade Italy

The gang's all here -- including the twins!!!
Wednesday, February 17th, 2010

It’s been quite some time since we’ve seen the Brangelina bunch all together, including ALL of the kiddies — Maddox Chivan, Zahara Marley, Pax Thien, Shiloh Nouvel, Knox Léon and Vivienne Marcheline. When last we saw Brangelina out and about, they were were lookin’ all lovey-dovey in Miami, FL as they rooted for the New Orleans Saints at Super Bowl XLIV. Since then, Angelina made her way to Haiti to do some UN Goodwill Ambassador work there. This week, the entire Brangelina brood have made their way to Venice, Italy for a little family vacay … with ALL of their children:

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie gave the tourists of Venice an extra sight to see today when they were spotted treating their children to ice cream. After keeping a low-profile amidst rumours of relationship trouble in recent months, the couple were seen with all six of their children today for the first time in ages. The superstar couple jetted into Italy’s canal city yesterday afternoon in preparation for a three-month stint while Jolie films her new movie The Tourist. And after sleeping off the jetlag at their new digs at the 15th century Palazzo Mocenigo, Jolie and Pitt decided to give their four oldest children a taste of a local delicacy – ice cream. The couple are renting out the stunning canal-side Palazzo, which is situated between the Rialto and Accademia parts of the city and faces San Toma. After arriving in a private plane at Marco Polo Airport on Monday afternoon, the family took two speedboats – one for their huge amount of luggage and another for the children – to their new home. Jolie, 34, isn’t expected to begin filming until March 15 which gives the family plenty of time to get to know the maze of streets and canals of Venice. Earlier today, the couple left their 19-month-old twins Knox and Vivienne at home with the nannies as they took their four other children out for ice cream … A few hours earlier, the couple then stepped out with their youngest children Knox and Vivienne, who have been rarely seen in public … Their move to Venice is yet another new location for the couple’s increasingly nomadic existence. After spending the past few months in Los Angeles, it appears the Jolie-Pitt family are suffering from itchy feet again.

Aww … I love seeing the entire family altogether. This photo shows the brood enjoying ice cream together (and look at Shiloh’s hat … is that not the cutest thing you’ve ever seen?!) but after the jump, you can check out photos of Brangelina with the youngest twins as they boarded a gondola for a Venician cruise …

Angelina Jolie Reveals She Is ‘Open’ To Adopting A Haitian Child

BUT, adoption is not what Brangelina is "focusing on" right now
Friday, February 12th, 2010

Earlier this week we learned that actress/humanitarian/superwoman Angelina Jolie was making her way to Haiti in her role as UN Goodwill Ambassador to help lend aid to the affected people of the deadly earthquake that struck there a month ago. When asked by CNN journalist Christiane Amanpour if Angelina Jolie was considering adopting a child from Haiti to add to her family, Ange admitted that she and fauxhubby Brad Pitt are “open” to adopting from Haiti … tho, she went on to clarify that she is not focusing on adopting any children at all at this time:

Even CNN’s hard-nosed global reporter Christiane Amanpour is curious about Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s family. In an interview with Jolie while she was still in Haiti, Amanpour asked the star if she plans to adopt a child in Haiti. “I’m always open to children around the world,” Jolie replied. “We’re that kind of family. Brad and I talk about that.” Not so fast, though: “But that’s not what we’re focusing on at this time, by any means,” she continued. “We’re not here for that. We’re here to see how we can help protect the children in country and scale up the needs here.” Late Thursday, X17 photographers snapped Jolie’s arrival back at LAX following her three-day trip to Haiti. She toured an SOS Villages camp for orphans, a Doctors Without Borders hospital near Port-au-Prince, a makeshift camp in the southern city of Jacmel and a Save the Children relief supply center. During her SOS Villages visit, Haitian kids were starstruck, yelling “Angie! Angie!” Jolie and Pitt, 46, donated $1 million to Doctors Without Border to provide medical assistance to earthquake survivors.

Personally, I think it’s high time that Brangelina add another child to their growing brood. The twins are almost 2 years old now … Brangelina is startin’ to slack off on the adopting, don’tcha think? While I agree that now is not the time for Angelina Jolie to be picking out children to adopt from Haiti, I think it would be very nice — at some point down the line — if Brangelina did save the life of an orphan from the region. A heroine’s work is never done.

Angelina Jolie Heading To Haiti As UN Goodwill Ambassador

Superwoman
Tuesday, February 9th, 2010

When last we saw Angelina Jolie, she was lookin’ all lovey-dovey with her fauxhubby and babydaddy Brad Pitt at Super Bowl XLIV in Miami, FL … but since then, she has gotten back to her UN Goodwill Ambassador duties and has gotten back to saving the world. Ange made her way to the Dominican Republic to visit with Haitian refugee children recuperating in hospitals there and has announced that she will be making her way to Haiti on behalf of the UN to help with the aid efforts there. Here are a couple photos of Angelina with Dominican Republic president Leonel Fernández yesterday and some deets of her visit to Haiti:

Movie star Angelina Jolie is due to arrive in quake-struck Haiti on Tuesday, the UN refugee agency said, a day after she visited Haitian children being treated in the neighbouring Dominican Republic. Oscar-winning Jolie serves as a goodwill ambassador for the UN High Commissioner for Refugees. UNHCR spokeswoman Sybella Wilkes in Geneva confirmed Jolie’s visit to Haiti, where some 200,000 people were killed and one million left homeless in the earthquake nearly a month ago. But Wilkes declined to give details of the actress’s programme while in Haiti. On Monday Jolie toured the pediatric wing of Dario Contreras Hospital, a leading trauma hospital in the Dominican capital Santo Domingo, with its director Hector Quezada, the hospital said. Jolie was also joined by Gonzalo Vargas Llosa, the head of the UNHCR team for Haiti and the Dominican Republic and a son of Peruvian writer Mario Vargas Llosa. The actress and her partner, actor Brad Pitt, donated one million dollars to Doctors without Borders (Medecins sans Frontieres) in Haiti following the January 12 quake, the worst natural disaster on record in the Americas.

Santa Angelina rides again. I will always be impressed by anyone who is willing to give so generously and unselfishly of their time to aid other people. Despite the criticism that Angelina tends to get sometimes, I commend her for working so tirelessly on behalf of other people. Not only is she willing to give of her time and energy but she is always among the first to give financially as well. Angelina Jolie’s hard humanitarian work is something to be admired … I fully support her endeavors and hope she is able to inspire others to help others in need as well. A hero’s work is never done … I’m glad to see that Ange is still up for the task.
