Angelina Jolie Watch

Angelina and Zahara visited Party Pig Superstore in Sunset Valley, Texas last Wednesday. No word on what the duo picked. The Party Pig is primarily a party store. Maybe there’s a party afoot.

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.

Angelina and the kids were spotted on Brad’s Tree of Life set today. Zahara is uber cute in her pink helmet. I wonder where Mad’s protective gear is? I don’t know what the recommendation is regarding scooters and helmets. Angelina gets bigger by the minute. Wonder when this baby(or babies) is due. Celebrity Baby Scoop thinks she might be as far as six months along. If she is that far along, she’ll give birth at some point in June. If the twin rumor is true, she’ll probably deliver early. Shiloh was born on May 27th. It’d be pretty neat or terribly annoying to have a sib born on the same day. I think Miz Shiloh could handle a birthday mate.

Angelina and Brad took the kids to Mammoth Lakes, Calif on Friday. The entire family took the trip but only Pax and Maddox are in these pics. Pax tried his hands at skiing while Maddox rocked the snowboard. The kids are safely suited up in helmets and warm clothing.

I checked out the Mammoth Lakes site and they bill themselves as “California’s premier winter resort” where you can ski, snowshoe, sled and snowboard. The town also has an ice rink and some lovely real estate.

The Jolie-Pitts can certainly afford a cold weather home and these homes look fairly reasonable especially for a resort town. It’s good to see the family taking have some fun. Neither Brad or Angelina appears to be working right now. They really do make the most of family time.

First thing. These pictures are blurry. It’s not your screen. But hey, they are recent pictures of the family so I’ll take them.

Second thing. These photos were actually taken on Friday so I don’t know if this was just a day trip of if the family is still in Santa Barbara. Time will tell.

And now for the pictures. Looks like Zee is sucking on that thumb and has some uber cute pink luggage. Mad is decked out in camouflage(he does love it) and sunglasses. Pax has on a white sweatshirt and blue jeans-I think. Shiloh is being carried by Dad. Randi has some pics of her actually walking. It’s hard to believe she’s 20 months old. Angelina is decked out in a thick jacket so we can’t see the baby bumb(untill I hear otherwise it’s a baby bump).

On to the pics.

Last week the Jolie-Pitts spent some time in Brad’s hometown of Springfield of Missouri. On Friday(January 4th) they took the kids to a local Chuck E Cheese. Brad, Angie, Jane Pitt(Brad’s mom) and several nieces and nephews ate pizza and played arcade games for approximately two hours. Angie carried Shiloh while the older kids played. At one point Brad even dolled our tokens.

This was the second pizza meal for the family who also dined with a larger familial group at Arri’s Pizza two days before. Apparently the family enjoys hanging out in the small city(population 150,000) because no one pays much attention to the superstars.

“They like Springfield because no one ever bothers them,�? says a source.

Arri’s co-owner Tani Kremer found the kids extremely polite with them intoning “please” and “thank you” when they wanted more pizza. And let’s face it. Who doesn’t want more pizza?

Unfortunately the family only got to spend a few days with the Pitt clan before heading off to California for the Critic’s Choice Awards.

Zahara walks!! Miss Zee took a walk Friday with Pax, Maddox and Mom. Looks like Pax is all set for Mardi Gras.

Sinus Infection + Christmas=Late Posting. Sorry for the delay but we’ve got some lovely pics of Angelina, Maddox, Brad, Pax and Zahara on a Friday afternoon bike ride in the French Qauter. That Brad’s a strong fella. I have enough trouble just carrying myself on a bike

Per the guidelines of Pax’s adoption, Angelina(Unmarried couples aren’t allowed to adopt from Vietnam so only her name is on the papers)has sent an annual report concerning Pax’s well being to Vietnamese officials. Pax was adopted on March 15, 2007 in Ho Chi Min City and recently celebrated his 4th birthday. According to VietNamNet, Angelina’s letter detailed how well the second oldest Jolie-Pitt is doing.

Angelina wrote, “We believe he feels very safe in his home. He laughs, sings, tells stories and is very fun to be around. He has a great sense of humor and is very imaginative. He is up to date with all his medical exams and vaccinations and has a very big appetite and developing properly. He is a wonderful addition to our family. We love him very much.”

The letter noted that Pax’s English is progressing nicely as he can now speak in complete sentences and tells funny stories. I was surprised to learn that Pax and Zahara are currently in kindergarten together. (Kudos to Angie and Brad for managing to keep the location a secret.)

Vietnamese law requires parents who adopt internationally to provide periodic updates “on the progress of the child periodically during the first three years following adoption, and at least once every year later till the child is 18 years of age.”

The letter was mailed from the family’s California home and included two snapshots of Pax(see one above).

It’s good to know that Pax is adjusting so well. I can’t believe it hasn’t even been a year since the adoption.

All three of the younger Jolie-Pitt kids have been named to Forbes Hollywood’s Most Influential Infants List(Maddox was too old to be considered). Shiloh took the top spot which is based on media attention and web presence. The youngest Jolie-Pitt snagged a reported $4.1 million payday from People magazine for her first cover only days after her birth.   A star had been born-literally.  E-Poll Market Research found that Shiloh in over 2,000 articles.

Zahara is fast on her baby sister’s heels, securing the number three list(darn that Suri Cruise her unending cuteness). Forbes points out that Zahara was seen sporting a Valentino that exactly matched her mom’s. And what photog can resist all that attitude and moxy?

Pax took home the number five slot even though his web media presence isn’t quite that of his sibs being part of the famous brood gives him a bit of edge. Of course his hip messy mane and shy smile don’t hurt.

Danielle Friedland of celebrity-babies.com said, “We can’t really identify with the lives celebrities lead and the luxuries they have. But what we can identify with is their parenting and their love for their children.”

I’d say congratulations to the Shiloh, Pax and Zahara but I’m sure they are more interested in play dates, crayons and juice cups than any celebrity kid lists.

Brad’s Birthday is on the 18th and you can be sure that Angelina and the kids have something special in store. Papa Pitt turns 44 this year and according to OK! Magazine he can expect hand made cards from the kids.

Maddox, Pax and Zahara have wielded crayons and scissors for the big day. A source close the family says, “Zahara loves coloring and said she wanted to make a card for Daddy. Then Maddox and Pax joined in. They were drawing and doodling, trying to outdo each other.”

Rumor has it that Angie gifted Brad with a motorcycle last year. While I’m sure he loved the new toy, nothing pleases him more than spending time with his family. “His family is the best birthday gift Brad could ever have,�? says the source. “Shiloh’s always been a daddy’s girl, and nothing makes Brad smile more than playing with her.�?

Happy early birthday to Brad.  I’m sure you’ll have a great day.

Note:  I don’t usually quote tabloids and “sources” but this story was so cute I couldn’t help it.

Angie’s brother, James Haven, gushed about the Jolie-Pitt kids in a recent interview with People Magazine.

“They’re unbelievable,” Haven, 34, an activist for AIDS and human rights causes, tells Marie Claire in November’s issue. “Zahara likes to hide from Angie, who always knows, right when she walks in the room, that Z’s playing.”

Awww that’s cute. James also says that Pax has managed to say his name, “He didn’t know any English, and I hadn’t heard him say a word yet, so I wasn’t expecting it.’

James, an activist himself, is currently serving as a board member of Artivist, a group that merges art and activism. The organization is sponsoring an L.A. film festival from Nov. 8 - 9 that will feature films on Human Rights, Children’s Advocacy, Environmental Preservation, and Animal Rights.

He credits his sister for helping sparking is interest in helping others. “Angie was the catalyst. She’d say, ‘I just heard this is going on in Darfur …’ and I’d want to be involved.”

I just glanced at the website and saw films about everything from a beauty pageant for women with HIV/AIDS to an investigation of a notorious puppy mill owner.

If I lived anywhere near LA I’d be there every day and ever night. The subject matter is vast and brings light to all kinds of injustice in the world. Looks like big brother is following little sister this time around. Good for him. I applaud the work he’s doing.

The Jolie-Pitts had some family time Saturday at the chichi Kidville located on New York’s upper west side. Kidville is large family center that has a huge schedule of classes, ballet and cooking to name a few, as well as indoor and rooftop playgrounds. The elder Jolie-Pitts weren’t able to take advantage of the adult manicure or massage services because all your kiddies have to be older for you to leave them unsupervised-not that Brad and Angelina would that.

I’m digging on Shiloh’s black tights. It must be getting a tad bit chilly in New York. Zahara’s finally old enough to traverse the paps all by her lonesome.

Brad Pitt Watch has additional photos.

You’re probably still reading this rumor but it isn’t true. The Celebrity Truth has revealed that the story circulating about a hip dysplasia surgery for Zahara Jolie-Pitt is pure bunk and the Star Magazine knew that BEFORE they printed it.

The Celebrity Truth spoke to Cindy Guagenti, Pitt’s publicist, who revealed that, “It’s not true, and I told the magazine that printed it – but they chose to run it anyways.”

Well, at least Zahara is okay. We wouldn’t want our resident bad ass toddler to be out of commision for one minute. She’s got to keep the rest of the family in line.

Angelina and Brad picked Maddox up from school yesterday, grabbed the rest of the family, headed to the Teterborough Airport in New Jersey and flew to…

Okay, so we don’t know where they are even a full 24 hours after they the boarded the plane but we do have video of them leaving to keep us warm until we find out. Angie even takes a moment to wave to the crowd.
