Angelina Jolie Watch

The first picture of Brad Pitt’s photos of Angelina Jolie for W magazine have surfaced along with snippets of the W interview.

Here’s what she say about the intimate portraits:
“I’m with a man who’s evolved enough to look at my body and see it as more beautiful, because of the journey it has taken and what it has created. He genuinely sees it that way. So I genuinely feel even sexier.”

About deciding to give birth to children:
“I think one of the life changing things that he did, one of many, is that I was absolutely never going to get pregnant. I never felt that it was the right thing to do. I suppose I just looked at him and loved him and just felt open to (getting pregnant). I suddenly wanted to. It’s one of those things you can’t explain.”

About giving birth to three of her six children:
“I wouldn’t trade that experience for the world. It taught me a lot about life, just the process of it, and now we have three other beautiful children that wouldn’t otherwise be here.

About her relationship with Brad:
“I do think that I’m in a good partnership now. I think it just needed to be the right man.”

You can just make out a little hand in the picture.  I wonder which of the twins it is.  I can’t wait to see the rest of the photos.  Looks like Brad did a fantastic job.  This interview will reveal a lot about the family.  Kudos to our favorite couple for sharing their lives with us.

Angelina and Brad took their two oldest kids to New Orleans Ninth Ward for a look around The Make it Right site  In case you’ve forgotten, Make It Right is the charity founded by Brad Pitt to help rebuild the Katrina devastated Lower 9th Ward.  Make It Right are green and affordable.   The goal of the group is to build 150 homes.  This week Brad announced that Make it Right has raised enough funds to build 90 houses.

Looks like they are off to a good start. Brad and Angelina took some time to chat with locals and of course cuddle up.

Angelina has said that she and Brad will expose the kids to all families charitable endeavors with hopes that the kids follow in their footsteps.

The family is having a grand old time in the Big Apple. Friday, Angelina took the three oldest kids to Lee’s Art Shop. Angie and kids always hit up Lee’s when they are in New York.   Lee’s is a four story Manhattan landmark that features every art supply under the sun.  They’ve even got a remodeled toy department on the second floor.

Friday night Angelina attended a Changeling Dinner at Il Bucco. For the occasion she rocked out a gray trench that matched her eyes. I really like her hair a bit longer with just a hint of curl.

Il Bucco is a well known Italian restaurant that was actually started by and independent filmmaker. Though Angie attended solo she was joined by the rest of the Changeling cast.

Brad’s also talking to DeNiro’s wife Grace Hightower. The couple brought brought along 12-year-old twins Julian and Aaron(there mom is DeNiro’s ex Tookie Smith) and son Elliot, 10.

More snippets from Angelina’s July Vanity Fair interview have been released. Check out the the groovy green wig.  The photos were taken on January 31 before Angie was showing.

On naming their youngest Shiloh:

“It’s a biblical name,�? she told me, “but we didn’t name her for that. It was a name my parents almost named their first child—there was a miscarriage: Shiloh Baptist. Because my father had been shooting in Georgia and that was the most southern name [my parents] could come up with. It’s a name I always liked. I used to go under it in hotels: Shiloh Baptist. I’d gone under it when [Brad] called hotel rooms where I was staying.

On how how she’s exposing her children to different religions:

“[My mother] was Catholic but also a child of the 60s. She stopped going to confession at one point because she was having sex before marriage. To me, she represented what religion should be. She never preached. If things didn’t make sense to her, she never just accepted it. I had Communion, but she never forced me to go to church. Brad got me this great thing for Christmas. It’s a bookshelf that has a book on every religion. That’s how we plan to raise our kids. Teach them about all religions. They can pick one or be a student of all of them. We’ll celebrate Kwanzaa for our girl. We’ll celebrate moon and water festivals for our boys. We’ll take them to temples in certain countries. Also to church.�?

On Brad Pitt coming into her life unexpectedly:

“After my last divorce, I said I was absolutely going to marry somebody in another field, an aid worker or something. Then I met Brad, everything I wasn’t looking for, but the best man, the best father I could possibly wish for, you know? I don’t see him as an actor. I see him very much as a dad, as somebody who loves travel and architecture more than being in the movies.”

You can read the entire interview  HERE.

Also check out snaps of Brad and Maddox hanging out at the Grand Prix in Italy.  Obviously those babies haven’t been born because Brad wouldn’t be away from his family.

Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt, Maddox and Pax returned from today’s sail. You can just make out out Pax’s feet behind the guy in the brown pants. Maddox is getting so tall. He won’t be able to swing between mom and dad much longer. Click on the thumbnails to enlarge images.

The family is really enjoying their mini-break. Today Angelina, Brad and the boys were spotted enjoying Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen’s yacht Tatoosh. The couple is already partaking of Allen’s Villa Maryland in St. Jean Cap Ferrat.

Tatoosh was purchased by Allen in 2001 for $100 million. It features:

• Five decks

• a master suite, a saloon and other rooms on the top deck;

• a saloon with a French limestone fireplace, a dining area, staterooms and a ladies’ powder room on the main deck

• a lobster tank

• a shaded six-foot deep swimming pool

• a movie theater

• facilities to transport two helicopters on the top two decks

The boat was presumably named for Tatoosh Island off the coast of Washington State.

Angelina Jolie Brad Pitt, Pax, Maddox

Angie, Brad, Maddox and Pax were in Grasse, France yesterday for a routine sonogram. Apparently they want the kids to feel included as the family grows.

“Angie was due for a scan and they thought it would be cool to do it on Mother’s Day and take Maddox and Pax along to see the twins for themselves on the sonogram machine,” a source told E! News.

“Brad and Angelina are very big on explaining things in a very simple way to their kids and they want the kids to feel included in the process of her pregnancy. Having them see the babies for themselves was a really exciting day out for them all.”

The family grabbed some chow from a local Mickey D’s and headed back home. Today Brad, Pax and Maddox are in Monaco with the family lawyer. Perhaps they’ve settled on a house.

The family has been busy. After spending some time in Monaco, Angelina, Brad, Zahara, Shiloh and Maddox hung out with the Edge from U2(aka David Howell Evan) earlier today. Brad and David helped Angie sit or get up…I’m not sure which. While Angie rested, the menfolk took played in the water with the tots. Love the multi-colored frock that Angie is wearing. There are also some blurry shots of the family having breakfast on Sunday morning. Angelina is toting a slick doed Shiloh while Pappa Pit is shirtless. Good times.

Angelina Jolie Brad Pitt Pax Maddox Zahara

Angelina and Brad hung out with the Pax, Zahara and a nanny Thursday. The villa where the family is staying is owned by Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen. The Florentine-style villa overlooks the area’s local harbor. (I’ve actually been to that harbor. I’ll see if the BFF will email me some pics.) The home has a round the clock staff of 12. Allen has been known to host glam parties during the Cannes Film Festival. Angie and Brad previously stayed there for a week before Shiloh was born. Angelina is set to walk the Cannes red carper fo Kung Fu Panda on May 15 and The Changeling on May 20. It’s good to see the family relaxing and enjoying themselves. Can’t wait to see them on the red carpet.

Thanks to Pink is the New Blog we know that Angelina and Brad took the three oldest kids to a movie at Southpark Meadows in Austin at some point during the weekend. We’re not sure what the family saw but PINB seems to think it was either Nim’s Island or Horton Hears a Who.

Brad and Angie took the older kids out for some goodies and game shopping at a Texas Game Stop on Monday afternoon. Looks like Pax and Zahara were more interested in the sweet treats they picked up at a nearby convenience store. Is Mad carrying a little wallet? That’s just awfully cute. He seems like the kind of kid that would stash some money away. I wonder what game Maddox picked up. I believe I see some chocolate in Zahara’s dainty little hand.(A girl after my own heart.)Shiloh was probably taking her afternoon beauty sleep. A cover girl has to get her rest. I’m not sure if I’m like the no-goatee Brad. I was sort of digging the facial hair. Angelina is glowing as always. Can’t wait to welcome the newest Jolie-Pitt.

According to ETonline, our couple might have tied the knot this weekend in New Orleans. The rumor mill has it that Brad’s parents, Angie’s brother James and all four little Jolie-Pitts were at the ceremony. ET contacted Brad’s rep who had “no idea” if they’d gotten married.

Updated while writing: People reports there was no wedding this weekend. Too bad. Maybe next time. Cause we know there will be a next time.

FYI on origination of the rumor: Seems Star magazine started the whole mess by claiming to “exclusively” reveal that Brad and Angie tied the knot in the French Quarter.  The rag says we can get all the details in this week’s edition which hits stands Wednesday.  I might just buy this foolishness just see how, and if, they backtrack.  Wow, they really stepped in it this time.   Not that they care.  I honestly can’t believe that ET piggy backed off something Star printed.  That really surprises me.

Angelina and Brad spent the weekend in New Orleans. Brad met with former president Bill Clinton “to greet volunteers and break ground for new homes in the Lower Ninth Ward in New Orleans, Louisiana on Sunday.” (I can’t wait to see one of the houses finished.)

Clinton represented the Clinton Global Initiative University which challenges “college students and universities to tackle global problems with practical, innovative solutions. At CGI U, young people and universities will do more than simply discuss the world’s challenges – they will take real, concrete steps towards solving them.”

The inaugural meeting of CGI U was held at Tulane University. I’m not sure if Brad went to any of those meetings but we’ll find out soon enough.

During the press conference President Clinton said, “The way to really get New Orleans all the way back and all the way back in a hurry is to rebuild in the right way and make it a long-term, five- to six-year commitment, to create a much higher base level of jobs through this whole energy efficiency endeavor.�?

Angie didn’t attend any of the official festivities. Instead she hung out with the kids. They indulged in snack food goodness and took a trip to the corner store. (The Southerner in me does love a corner store.)There’s nothing quite like a kid covered in orange Cheeto dust. Good times. I dig the billowing dresses that Angelina wears. They look comfy but are still stylish. I’m glad she’s taking his opportunity to wear some brighter colors.
