Brangelina’s “organized chaos” big happy family takes the cover of People

fp_7011153_pitt_jolie_last_fp7_09_13

On Sunday, I published the new photos we had of Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie and all six of their children. The brood was walking around New Orleans, and they ended up buying some treats at Verti Market. The photos were cute, and notable because there hasn’t been a six-kid-strong public outing in a while. Also notable: how big Vivienne and Knox (and Fax Cannes, for that matter) are getting, and how all of the biological children basically all look alike. Anyway, for some reason, this outing was important enough to make the cover of People Magazine this week. Weird, right?

The family that sightsees together, stays together.

Roaming New Orleans last weekend, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were just continuing their family tradition of on-the-go together time with their brood of six: Maddox, 9; Pax, 7; Zahara, 6; Shiloh, 4; and 2-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.

But the famously globetrotting clan isn’t always on the road: With the kids getting older, school schedules have started to take precedence and the family is often based in Los Angeles – where their day-to-day life is surprisingly ordinary.

“The family live in a way that can best be described as organized chaos,” an insider tells PEOPLE in this week’s cover story. “Of course it’s wild when all the kids are there, and evening tends to be a bit chaotic with dinner and bedtime.”

Pitt, 47, and Jolie, 35, “are both good with rules, and there are definitely consequences, like time-outs, for bad behavior,” adds the source. “But for the most part the kids all get along.”

Okay, this is actually starting to scare me a little, because I genuinely like/adore the Jolie-Pitts. What is up with them? Why the People Magazine cover reinforcing their solidarity? What are they trying to prove? It feels like there’s another shoe that’s about to drop. And I’ve said it before – I can handle whatever negative Jolie-Pitt story there is, because there are millions of negative stories and Angelina and Brad manage to keep on making it work. But I get suspicious and worried whenever their press gets too positive and ass-kissy. And this cover makes me suspicious.

    Beginning of the end.

  2. AENFLEX says:

    The children are beautiful.

  3. EdithP says:

    That Zahara is one pretty girl.

  4. Ari says:

    Zahara is a QUEEN I tell you! So beautiful.

  5. malachais says:

    It might just be a slow week, plus new pics of the twins are few/far between. I’m sure they gave people the OK on the story.

  6. nnn says:

    Zahara has such a royal poise and exude such feminine grace at a young age at that. A true african queen.

    I understand that everyone is trying to make a living, so i can understand the paps job but i am tired of the systematic overexploitation of them as a product to put relentlessly on the covers of magazines and the fake stories and daily tomeaning process.

    At least put a story inside (not on the cover), once in a while and a story that’s plausible.

    The constant sensationalism , mediocrity and cheapness of the press as a whole is shameful.

  7. Praise St. Angie! says:

    didn’t comment on these pics last time, but HOLY SMOKES those kids are cute.

    they DO look like they all get along, and look after each other (the hand-holding, etc), and “organized chaos” happens with only three kids, so I’d expect it with six.

    one of the funniest things I ever saw was my sister and s-i-l trying to feed/bathe/put to bed my 5 nieces and nephews. “organized chaos”, indeed.

    and I really think the reason they made the cover of People is BECAUSE there hasn’t been a “full family” outing photographed in a while.

  8. mandy3gt says:

    WHAT is with the veins in Angelina’s arms?

  9. Rita says:

    I love it. Just a wonderful looking family enjoying the day.

    On the other shoe that might drop, if Brad is exposed as Jen’s secret baby-daddy, we’ll have a settlement on Mars before this quiets down.

  10. Isabel says:

    WOW, Zahara is gorgeous. And I really this Maddox is awesome, too. He’s The Original!

  11. Photo JoJo says:

    So happy to see People just listed the kids in age order, instead of dividing them into the biological kids and the adopted kids.

    Zahara is a very stunning little girl. She’s going to be a serious looker when she’s older.

  12. spinner says:

    Organized chaos?? oh boy…

  13. atorontogal says:

    The pictures of the family are lovely. I am sick of the horrid stories that are published about these children especially the ones about the twins having Down Syndrome, or the horrific things Chelsea whatshername said about them. I love this family and am so glad they live the life they do, it shows me some Hollyweird types are semi normal!

  14. ThatBoyLuke says:

    LOL this family is so lovely, i love how happy all the kids are with each other, when i was that youg me and my brother would be arguing like mad lol (still do).

    P.S what’s with the “Fax Cannes” thing?

  15. denise says:

    Maybe this is their way of fighting back against the crazy stories about their kids turning violent and all that other nonsense. All kids that age fight and argue. The tabloids really do go overboard with this regarding these specific kids. You never really hear any stories like this about other celebs kids. It’s actually pretty messed up when you think about it.

  16. pansy says:

    I think people are fed up with the lies about this family, notice when there is a positve story the Jolie~Pitts had to co-operate. Glad they live their lives how they want and don’t have a PR guy snivelling to blogs about the crappy lies written about them.

  17. mln76 says:

    Here is my theory…She is pregnant E News did a side by side comparison and there is weight gain since the Golden Globes. This is why she’s been laying so low and isn’t staying in NOLA. They are trying to preempt the criticism that they can’t handle the kids they already have but it’s too early for them to announce a pregnancy.

  18. nnn says:

    They have painted Zahara like being an agressive ghettoish always angry little girl who terrorizes her siblings (you know the stereotype of the angry black woman). And look how this child is so maternal, sweet and protective of her little siblings. According Jolie she has always been a little mama with the twins and very girly.

    They have painted Shiloh as being a boy with issues but we all see that she is a little girl who like to dress like her brothers. She still has the allure and the ways and gimmicks of a little girl… touches her hair like a girl.

    They have painted the Twins has having Down Syndrom, but they both seems to show strong personalities, react to camera and sollicitations of the paps.

    And what’s beautiful, all of those children act brotherly like towards each other wether adopted or not. There is absolutely no difference whatsoever.

    They all seems at ease, closed to each other and grounded.

    I am really disgusted by all the negativity and nastiness the tabs usually print about those kids.

    They are normal kids, acting normal, living their kiddie life and happy with each other in their innocent world.

    To hell Chelsea and all the other evil who are trying to put dirt on their innocence.

  19. Cheyenne says:

    Agree with Praise — There hasn’t been a family cover in over a year and People mag knows that any cover with this family on it is going to sell like hotcakes.

    Also agree with nnn. But People is essentially a gossip mag, and they just do what gossip mags do.

  20. Melanie says:

    mln: I think she is pregnant too. I don’t get her…..

  21. til says:

    Nothing new, they are in the cover of People Magazine because they sell magazine…

  22. Riley says:

    Little Viv looks like the sweetest, cuddliest, child ever.

  23. flotus says:

    So, it was a “Photo Op” after all!

  24. Melanie says:

    @ Flotus: You called it. 100% staged.

  25. fifi says:

    oh god, zahara is so beautiful!

  26. munchies says:

    omg, look at zahara… shes so cute! and maddox.. and viv is a doll with that shoes and blankie!

  27. Sam says:

    Their kids are so adorable!…I think its to do with their children aswell, it says on the cover ‘latest on their kids’ why not the couple?…I’m with the OP its to do with the backlash with the kids and show that they are like any other family out there with kids, they maybe a handful but the kids love each very much…It’s good to see Angelina has put on weight, maybe she is pregnant…xx

  28. Sophie says:

    vivienne is adorable. and knox is gonna be a heartbreaker when’s he older!

  29. womanfromthenorth says:

    They do look very happy… good for them

    I see the Sun in those pics, I know it’s up there. But the snow clouds are blocking it…. SICK of SNOW

  30. scarlet says:

    Staged.

  31. Justaposter says:

    I love how the kids look like kids! Not some little dressed up pony show many celebs trot out.

    And organized chaos discribes my house too. I

  32. DGO says:

    This might be a response to the National Enquirer story about the kids beating each other up. Although I kind of believe they do every time I see Shiloh’s knocked out tooth.

  33. Johnny Depp's Girl says:

    Yeah, she probably is pregnant or adopting. That is usually when you see this kind of cover.

    Good for them..

  34. Whatever says:

    I think its a story because there aren’t a lot of pictures of them with all six kids at once. But now that the babies are getting older, it gets easier to take them places. Organized chaos is a great description. We have one less than they have, but that description fits our family too, especially in the morning when everyone is getting ready for school!

  35. original kate says:

    seems a bit staged but whatever. the kids looks happy & normal. off topic, where is love angelina lately? she has been strangely silent.

  36. tracking says:

    I said this on another thread, but I do think some of the kids are old enough to hear about the nasty tabloid gossip at school. So maybe one part family reassurance, one part $$ (come on, that was probably one lucrative 5-min walk), and several parts who knows what else. It doesn’t necessarily mean there’s any particular trouble at this moment.

  37. mew mew says:

    Funny that “Angie’s such a private person” yet their kids are on the show constantly.

  38. Reality says:

    I agree with the baby speculation, but not because of weight gain. Her arms and legs are still really, really thin, while her boobs are probably fake. I’m going to go with adoption this time, and this ‘happy family’ photo op is definitely to show that the nannies- ahem- I mean that they can handle the 6 they’ve got already.

    People is in their pocket with the baby cover deals they’ve made, I’m sure they publish whatever image-friendly pics the Brange want in exchange for first options on future ‘exclusive’ new-baby-debut covers. Smart.

  39. Juu says:

    They should cut Knox’s hair, it’s all over his face.

    And I hope someday I’ll have a daughter as cute as Vivienne. She’s lovely!

  40. mymy says:

    So they look happy? I guess people see what they want to see. Walking to a store to buy 3 things is really hardly considered a fun outing for 2 to 9 year olds. And it shows on their faces. And why the sport coat on Knox?Looks beyond silly. Zahara is rocking the heck out of the green. Only colorful thing on any of them.My guess is she is the only one that picks out her cloths.Got to love her for messing up the color thyme.

  41. DD says:

    In an industry where their innocent children have been fair game, I don’t blame them trying to put out a positive story amidst all the negative stuff that’s been written about their children.
    If you repeat a false lie often enough, people start to believe it. I remember a couple of times when Angelina would come on tv, people that I know didn’t follow celebrity news would regurgitate the tabloid headlines they saw while standing in grocery store lines as if they were facts.

  42. EbonyShiksa says:

    @Melanie @Flotus Of course it was staged!

    Anyone who doesn’t believe that is being willfully obvious seeing as how the same people are willing to call “other” people’s outings as staged. every. single. time. 😉

    The children are very cute but that shouldn’t stop you from seeing the obvious. This outing and the People Mag cover was approved by Team Brange. I really don’t think it has anything to do with them getting “ready” for anything. I think they just saw and opportunity and went with it. That’s all. I’m sure they’re as happy as they’ve always been and they’re promoting that…One big, happy family.

  43. Anastasia says:

    What the heck? So because they all go out at once and someone photographs them, there are all sorts of conspiracy theories?

    So they all went out. What’s the big freaking deal?

    And yeah, they do look like NORMAL KIDS.

    I really don’t get the obsession with this family. They seem to be doing fine. Why overanalyze every single picture?

  44. Praise St. Angie! says:

    I just wanted to say that “EbonyShiksa” is a GREAT posting-name.

  45. sandy says:

    my favorite family, they are all gorgeous, we hardly ever see this family, kids, it’s always a treat, because they are not fame seekers, posing for the cameras, selling products, fake boy friends, etc. they have a life, a wonderful one at that, i am just so happy for brad.

  46. Jeri says:

    PEOPLE is Brangelinas’ official asskisser.

  47. vanessa says:

    Vivienne is absolutely beautiful! All 6 of those kids are going to be lookers.

  48. Kim123 says:

    Poor mymymy. By the bags Brad and the bodyguards were carrying they bought more than three things. Obviously Vivienne and Pax wanted to carry their treats .They are many pics over the years of the kids and Brad or Angie walking to that corner store to pick up some snacks.nnn ITA they make Zahara out to be the sassy black girl. While Brad has stated she is scared/anxious around paps and Angie stated she is sweet,elegant and very nurturing but that goes against the sterotype.FYI if it was a photo op it would be an exclusive like the baby pics every tabloid has the same pics.Lastly great to see The Tourist just crossed $268 Million I will be picking up my DVD today which I ordered before the NOLA pics(smile)

  49. Sunshine Daze says:

    Now that People can’t feature the Gosselins every other week, they need another “large” family to fill the void. I think we’ve all been Duggared out, too (or just weirded out by them). The Jolie-Pitt family seems “normal” and I think it’s wonderful that Brad & Angelina actually DO things regularly with their kids, and not just trot them out for photo ops.

  50. Amy says:

    Maybe they are adopting again? Or having another baby?

  51. Siren6 says:

    I think she’s pregnant too. I thought she was looking suspiciously chesty before I even read the comments.

    Look how adorable Viv is! All the kids are beautiful, but I think she’s going to turn out to be a real looker.

  52. Anna says:

    Don’t forget that People put Jen on the cover a few weeks ago just to assure us that she’s ‘all right”.

  53. Lady D says:

    Viv’s got 6-8 little bruises on her shins. I remember that stage, it was cute and painful at the same time. (You need to imagine a happy face here. The skill escapes me)

  54. cooperating? says:

    How are they cooperating? There are no quotes from Brad or Angie, just some vague insider- very tabloidish. People used actually have some NAMED sources for their stuff, but not so much any more. The last time Brad & Angie talked to People Magazine was summer 2009 at the la inglorious basterds premier…I remember Brad saying that “sometimes mom & dad need to hire a baby sitter, go away and get dirty”. In July 2010 they had a few Angie quotes about Brad being a great dad & how strange it was to be on set after 18 months off, but they seemed to come via a Parade interview. After the 2008 twins shoot, all the people magazine photos of the Jolie-Pitts have been pap or red carpet photos- so, where s this “cooperation”?

  55. mymy says:

    Was my bland observation really worth a shout out about poor mymy. Nothing of the sort. So I don’t think a trip to the store looks like much fun. And the faces on the children seem to agree with my assessment. How does that make me poor?
    Get a little thicker skin when it comes to this family. I fail to see happiness. OK

  56. Eve says:

    I agree with Praise St. Angie’s comment # 7.

  57. anonymous says:

    zahara is a little mini Iman…just gorgeous.

  58. Kim123 says:

    I saw a video with about ten paparazzi running and shouting trying to get in front of them to shoot pics. I would guess that accounts for the grim looks.I have seen a few pics/video of them smiling and Zahara whispering to Shiloh. Pax saying something to Maddox causing them both to smile. There is also a pic of Vivienne smiling. I guess after a couple days inside the wanted to take the kids out for a short walk to the store.Personally I’m glad they are back in LA where they seem to avoid the paps.I noticed the older kids are dressed very casual whereas the twins look they are going/coming to someplace more formal like church. That jacket Knox is wearing looks like a jacket I saw on Pax before.

  59. sandy says:

    there are plenty of photos where the children are smiling, LOOK!! LOL BUT, also if you generally want to find something wrong with someone, you will, this is not directed at anyone in particular, but it’s just strange to based assumption off of one still photo. still a lovely picture none the less, i guess that’s why it made, PEOPLE.

  60. Jeanette says:

    Hmm..interesting..people were making comments 2 days ago how they were so pimping these kids out and in the same week they end up on a magazine cover..yeah I smell a rat too.Btw..no matter how much you dislike Ang/Brad together you cant deny it would be a tradgedy for all these cute kids to be going through a split as well. But I guess we lie in our own beds..

  61. DiMi says:

    1. Zahara is beautiful, and I’m glad somebody finally combed her hair.
    2. All of the adopted children actually look like Angelina in terms of their features. Look beyond skin color and hair and just look at the features.
    3. Why are you just starting to get suspicious? This whole set-up has had a crazy-town vibe since the beginning. And I amy NOT Team Aniston, I think she’s from crazy town, too. I’m just waiting for Zahara to grow up and write a tell-all book so we can find out what really happened.

  62. Wholesome1 says:

    Relax! Ups and downs are a normal part of every day life- even for movie stars!

  63. Kim123 says:

    If People Magazine had exclusive they need to get their $ back that pic is on cover of Star with headline Baby #7, they are on Life and Style, too.

  64. lisa says:

    There are not many pics of them out with all 6 kids.. People Mag would be silly not to put a cover out. The do this all the time. Plus hate them or LOVE them (as I do heheheh) they sale.

    The kids are way cute and if a picture keeps the nasty stories at bay. then I hop the stage a photo op every single day. We had not seen these kids in months. so whatever.

    I’m getting the People mag on Friday..

    and bet a lot of the “none fans will do the same”

    OT: So sad about Dame Elizabeth..

  65. lucy2 says:

    Must have been a slow news week for an ordinary family day out to get the People cover. With all that’s going on in the world, this is what People chose to feature?

    I don’t believe that was “staged” or a photo op, I think it was just a nice day out, but given the PR relationship that couple has with People, I would be surprised if this ran without their approval. But who knows.

  66. Elfie says:

    Can someone explain me that “Fax Cannes” thing? Kaiser has mentioned it in the past posts of the Jolie-Pitts.. But I don’t get it… Help?

  67. nnn says:

    If they are suposedly unhappy or miserable based on the fact that they never smile, then Sandra Bullock is in more trouble because her baby is always caught on pictures with a distressed, grumpy amorphic look, not even the start of a smile, not even the begining of another expression that the usual one.

    But i guess the double standard never cross anyone’s mind and certainly not the one of the same obsessive people who draw those easy conclusions on the JP kids who supposedly are never seen smiling (a blatant lie anyway) and Louis is no matter what a happy little fellow raised by a balanced woman and is expected to naturally turn fine on the contrary of the miserable JP kids.

    And notice how there is never the same concern raised about Sandra raising ALONE at that a little African-American with no relation to his community, how the child will turn emotionally troubled and confused in racially codified America since he has a white mother and a former father who suspiciously showed some sympathy for a racist idealogy, yeah right !

  68. lu says:

    I would love to see Zaharas afro, i think it would look cool. I always get excited when i see one , i lovvveeee afros.

  69. k.at says:

    I always feel so bad for pax (shoot, is that his name)? He is my favorite, but it seems like he always gets pushed out of the spotlight. Team Pax!!!!!!!!!-I really hope that is his name, it has been so long since I have even seen his name

    TEAM PAX, TEAM PAX TEAM PAX TEAM PAX
    TEAM PAX, TEAM PAX TEAM PAX TEAM PAX
    TEAM PAX, TEAM PAX TEAM PAX TEAM PAX
    TEAM PAX, TEAM PAX TEAM PAX TEAM PAX
    TEAM PAX, TEAM PAX TEAM PAX TEAM PAX

    TEAM PAX, TEAM PAX TEAM PAX TEAM PAX

  70. Melanie says:

    k.at: I too am a fan of the PaxMan. (I am pretty sure that IS his name) Poor guy, they probably just call him “Hey You!”

  71. melinda says:

    Vivienne is absolutely darling! I think she’s giving me baby fever.

  72. louise says:

    The haters get dumber by the second. If this was a photo-op for People Mag, it would have been done in private with one photographer. Not out in the public where anybody could take photos. This isn’t even an exclusive photo. Every website and tabloid has the cover photo. People doesn’t even have a quote nevermind an interview. With the exception of the baby photos, I can only recall 2 cover in the past few years. One was an interview to promote Brad’s movie and the other was when for about 6 months the tabloids kept saying they were breaking up any second. For a magazine supposedly in their pocket, you would think they would be on a lot more covers. Reality stars like 16 and Pregnant and John and Kate have more covers. I love how people think it’s wonderful for Jessica Simpson and Jennifer Aniston to get covers for getting a new boyfriend or moving on after a breakup, 5 years later. But when Brad and Angelina get one, people claim it’s a payoff.

  73. lisa says:

    I saw the video of them walking.. and I just love toddlers walking so cute. And Knox has that same Pitt gait.. Shiloh has it too. and the twins are really cute. Glad to see a picture of Viv that really shows how adorable she is. Lots of kids have long hair.. we saw it with Kate H, Celine, SJP and countless others. He is a really beautiful little boy.

    Shame on the rags for printing nasty stories that these babies had Downs. That is a serious condition and it was only said of these children to attack their parents.

    Anyway their kids; all 6 are super cute.

  74. WhiteNoise says:

    @Elfie – there were pics a while back with Brad (I think) holding a child in Rome, who looked like Knox but seemed to be the same size as Shiloh, and Kaiser, unable to identify categorically which child it was, and playing on the fact that A&B have so many children(!), invented a new one called Fax to account for the ‘mystery’ child. (It turned out to be Shiloh.) Since then, and because Shiloh, Knox and Viv can often look so alike in a lot of pics, fantasy child Fax is used as a temporary stopgap identity until the child is correctly identified!

  75. Bella says:

    With six kids you tend to keep the color scheme the same… one goes missing and you know what the hell they were wearing.

    The kids are all adorable.

    I don’t get the big deal about going out as a family.

  76. poppy says:

    Melanie
    K.at you guys know every thing. Why was Pax hiding his face behind a bag of chips?
    I’m feel sorry for both of you. Guess having no friends is the reason, why you’re JEALOUS of the Jolie-Pitt family. If they walk it is too slow or too fast, it is always negative comments, your lives are miserable that is why you’re so bitter and your men ran away from the nagging. So poor sad sacks keep on doing what you do best complaining.

  77. Alix says:

    Now can they give Knox a decent haircut like his brothers’?

  78. Cinderella says:

    Shiloh, Knox and Vivienne look just like Jon Voight.

    If Angie is pregnant, at least they’re still having sex, so things can’t be all that bad.

  79. junk573r says:

    Every picture I see of Knox, he always looks dozy. And Zahara is cute but the little twink is gonna have a critical mass Tyra Banks ten head, poor thing. I always felt sort of bad for Pax because of the timing of his adoption and the twins birth. It was like he was just added to round out the numbers. I realize probably not that way but he seemed a little over looked.

  80. nnn says:

    WTF are you talking about ? Pax was adopted at least two years and a half before the twins birth, 3 months after Jolie’s mum passed way and when Shiloh was turning one.

    Plus why feeling bad for him ? If anything he was overlooked in that orphenage like most kids.

    Now he has a rich loving family, 5 siblings and parents who spend more time with him than most of us who work can dream of spending with our kids with a 5 to 9 job, sometimes even two jobs and no partner to help us.

  81. Elfie says:

    @WhiteNoise Ohhhh!! Thanks! Hahah, that clarifies a lot!

  82. junk573r says:

    Child out, it’s how I feel. Not you.

  83. nnn says:

    I am chilled and you can feel whatever you want, I am just correcting the so called ‘TIMING’ problem you have brought which is not true !

    Pax has been in this family for the last 5 years, long before Jolie was pregnant with the twins and there were plenty of pictures where he was in Jolie’s arms as Jolie said that at the time she had to sleep with him to reassure him and couldn’t stay away the whole day because off Pax who only felt safe when she was there.

    She even said that he was the only child that they didn’t leave to Brad’s parents like the rest of the grandchildren who soemtimes spent teh times with Bill and jane, because again, he only feel safe with Jolie. So she spent many times with him the first months.

  84. Isa says:

    I don’t think Angelina looks “chesty” well chestier than usual. She’s always been really thin with large breasts (for her frame.) Even when she was around 16 and did some modeling pictures her breasts were large for body. It’s possible she’s had implants but I’ve seen nude scenes and don’t think so.

    Is she pregnant? I never can tell.

  85. Mrs Odie 2 says:

    I’m sure this photo shoot was staged in an “appease the paps” way. The PR person announces, “Brad, Angie and the kids will walk a few blocks and you can shoot all the pictures you like. Then they’s like to be left alone.” It isn’t a conspiracy. All celebs do it. That way you don’t get hunted down like Princess Diana.

    I have a two year-old named Vivienne too. Was SO mad when Angie took the name.

    I agree with the poster who said the kids look like John Voight. Totally.

  86. CoffeeTalk says:

    Whitenoise: Thanks for revealing the Fax Cannes info, I was kinda wondering the same thing but I didn’t care enough to inquire. Kaiser that is really cute 🙂 The kiddos are all adorable and the biological children do look very very similar.

    poppy: You are countering negativity with more negativity. All parties need to relax. It is not that serious.

  87. Shay says:

    I can only imagine how much therapy these kids will need when they’re older.
    Even Mia Farrow didn’t use her kids for media fodder the way Angelina does.

  88. lisa says:

    @Shay..

    well you and the other predictors of problems with these children really need to chill. I don’ read any comments about such worry about Charlie Sheen’s kids.

    The JP kids seem quite happy. And one picture of the children in MONTHS.. well think what you want.

    Mia Farrow was YEARS ago.. and there was no interest in her children. Just like there is not that much interest in the children of the other celebrities that as you say who use their children for media fodder.. I mean the ones that we see their children every single day. I wonder what therapy they are going to need.

    YOU really should spread that concern around a bit more.

    @Mrs Odie: They don’t need to call the paps. They are A-listers not desperate D-listers who need to beg to have their photos taken. Also they are always photographed in NO. They can’t walk around in LA because the paps attack and surround them. The NO paps keep their distance (staying across street) don’t harrass (no yelling). Plus they know where they live. The just have to camp outside of their house and follow.

    There are a lot more photos of the kids of the Beckhams, Gwen Stefani, Sandra Bullock, etc than of the Jolie-Pitts this year. How come they are called good parents but Brad and Angelina are called exploitive. It doesn’t make sense. For people who the haters claim love the media Brad and Angelina are some of the least photographed celebrities.

    Those kids always look like they are having a friggen great time. I love them. If I was a kid, I would want to be friends with them.

    @Kaiser interesting take on the People cover, now you have MY wheels spinning wondering what is up

    in other news, their daughter Viv is gorgeous.

  93. Mrs. Odie 2 says:

    Fine, Louise. They step outside and call out to the awaiting paps, “Brad, Angie and the kids are all coming out.” I think you missed my point which is they play the game, just like everyone wih ajob plays the game of their particular workplace. I was not criticising their majesties, so don’t worry.

    This proves all those lies about them breaking up, wrong. They seem more together as a family than ever before. The beginning of forever.

    Yikes. They are a RELIGION on here.
    @poppy: how could you tell that k.at and melanie don’t have any friends? I thought they were being sarcastic, but apparently they’re being serious, and through your psychic channels, you’ve seen they’re friendless to boot. perhaps they’re also job-less, husband-less and child-less too. let’s all join together in a chorus of agony for them. we can’t see them, but they’ve got to be miserable. it’s the only logical explanation. poor, poor, poor k.at. dear, dear suffering melanie. I hope you guys find happiness soon.

    @k.at & melanie:
    I send my regards. If you’d like to make your very first friend, you can Facebook friend me. I can’t actually BE your friend the old fashioned way…ie, face to face. I’m very preoccupied right now. I travel from city to city, keeping myself abreast of the latest developments in the Jolie-Pitt family. I carry with me only the provisions that I need when I travel: my newly purchased “Tourist” DVD, a copy of “Hackers” that I’d like to get autographed, and my night-vision goggles. I’ve also brought my camera equipment this time. I feel in my heart that Angie could be pregnant again, so I’d like to hide outside of her window and catch a time-lapse video of her belly growing so I can sell it to In Touch…oh…sorry. I must away on business. God bless the Jolie-Pitts.

    the J-Ps don’t necessarily have to approve this cover. People can put them on regardless. they sell. i think Viv looks like a mini-Reese Witherspoon. Adorable. Zee is drop-dead gorg. love Shi to teeny tiny bitz! Knox! Pax! Maddox! can’t get enuff of ’em.
    peepz are unreal. For real. I don’t think the outing was “staged”. that fam practically has to lock themselves up in CHATEAU D’IF to escape pap action. but hey, let’s count down till Angie and Brad’s next “staging” while Eva Longoria, The Kardashians and all the actual “stagers” entertain us. till then…love the J-Ps.

  99. Sakyiwaa says:

    @Newbie. lmao! at ur last comment.
