Angelina Jolie And Brad Pitt Just Keeping Up Appearances?
The tabloids can’t seem to make up their mind. One minute, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are splitting, the next minute they are madly in love. Then there are reports that a journalist lied about Pitt defending Angelina, and now, the couple’s spokespeople are of course stating they are still happily together.
It makes it difficult to know where the truth in all this conjecture and speculation really is.Â
What we do know is that Brad and Angelina as a couple have four children under the age of five, we know that three of those children are adopted, 5-year-old Maddox, 2-year-old Zahara, 3-year-old Pax and their one biological child, 11-month-old Shiloh.
We also know that as of yet, none of the three children Angelina Jolie adopted have been officially adopted by Brad Pitt, though he has submitted a petition to adopt both Zahara and Maddox and they do have Pitt as their surname. Only their daughter Shiloh, 11 months, is officially Brad Pitt’s child. As of yet, no petition has been filed for Pax on behalf of Pitt, but in fairness, there may be a waiting period for Angelina Jolie’s paperwork to be finalized in Pax’s native country Vietnam.Â
Another thing we know is Angelina told the press in Vietnam at the time of Pax’s adoption her intentions were to stay at home for a while and mother and nurture her expanding brood, when in fact within the first days of returning back home with Pax, Maddox and Zahara, she flew to Chicago for a screen test for her new movie Wanted, which will begin shooting in Prague in May.
And what about those children? Maddox had been enrolled in school for two months when the couple moved to New Orleans at the beginning of the year, and has since been uprooted again and is now back in L.A. living in their Los Feliz home.  The two pre-schoolers, Zaraha and Pax are being dropped off at studio lot daycare center. Sure, kids are resilient, but only when they have a constant and stabilizing force in their lives to balance all the uprooting and moving around. Who is their constant? Brad? He’s been working on his film, The Curious Case of Bejamin Button, and Angelina’s getting ready to begin her new film — not too mention all her globe-trotting as UN Ambassador and various charitable works.
Obviously, Angelina and Brad want it all: a multi-national family, thriving movie-careers, to save the world and have mind-numbing sex lives. Who wouldn’t? But the reality is, no one can have it all.  Not regular folks, not movie stars. Throw in the estrangement of Angelina and her father Jon Voight, the death of her mother, the disapproval Brad’s parents have towards Angelina, and then Angelina’s own unwillingness to marry Brad — and that’s a lot of issues to deal with. Â
The couple’s spokeperson tells In Touch: “Their plan is to always be together, with the kids, too.”
Well, you know what they say about the best laid plans. Both In Touch and Life & Style are reporting the couple got into a heated exchange on the phone while Angelina was doing a photo shoot for St. John’s which they say “raised eyebrows” on set and Angelina was mad when the call ended. She then refused to take anymore of Brad’s calls.Â
The L&S article says that Brad has had enough and in fit of anger, let out some suppressed feelings that have been building up over the tension within the relationship:
According to a friend of Brad’s, he yelled at Angie, “I don’t love you anymore — you’re not the woman I fell in love with!†Then, after calming down, says a friend of the couple, Brad quietly asked her, “Why are we doing this? We’re both unhappy — let’s walk away before it gets worse.â€
There are also reports that Brad and his ex-wife Jennifer Aniston have been communicating throughout all this turmoil and she is providing him a shoulder to cry on and a place to crash if he needs it. Hmmm….
Clearly, something is amiss, and the fact that the couple released a statement tells me that are trying to do some damage control. If they make to the end of the year as a couple, I will be amazed. But they sure aren’t going to break up now. Not with promotions for their latest movies Oceans 13 and A Mighty Heart coming out.Â
Can’t afford bad press during movie promotion time can we?

No we don’t know this. This is an assumption on your part based.
[As of yet, no petition has been filed for Pax on behalf of Pitt.]
Another assumption on your part.
[There are also reports that Brad and his ex-wife Jennifer Aniston have been communicating throughout all this turmoil and she is providing him a shoulder to cry on and a place to crash if he needs it.]
That alone should tell you the L&S story is pure BS.
[Clearly, something is amiss]
Yes, because the worst tabloids say so. Call me when People/Us Weekly say something…

You are idiot yourself, you are making conclusions based on what you read from these two tabloids. Did you know thay they just make up sotry out of any pics of B&A that comes out. It just so happen that angie was photographed talking in ehr cell phone while shooting for St John. And this stupid tabs are now making up that she was quarelling with Brad on that cell. If indeed she was fighting with Brad, do you really think Angie will let everyone hear about it? And you are saying that they are keeping up appearances and yet Angie letting everyone ehar about their fight!!!
I hope people can just leave Angelina alone, and for your info, this the latest from PEOPLE Mag, they are the only realible celbrity magazine around!!
“Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, enjoying dinner at the Dakota inside the Hollywood Roosevelt Hotel. The couple, who will light up Cannes together next month, dined with a party of five. They “looked like they were having an amazing time and were very sweet with each other, a very happy couple,” says an onlooker.”

BRAD PITT LEGALLY ADOPTED MADDOX AND ZAHARA IN MAY 2006, WHY ARE YOU STATING A COMPLETE LIE THAT HE HAS NOT? HOW DO YOU KNOW THAT THERE IS ANY TROUBLE BETWEEN THEM, THEY HAVE BEEN INSEPARABLE SINCE 2005. YOU ARE COMPLETELY BIASED ABOUT THESE TWO AND JUST MAKE UP ALL KINDS OF LIES. THIS BLOG IS JUST TRASH OF THE WORST KIND.

Some people just burn with jealosy. Brad and Angie will always be together as they have a common goal and share the same values. Only that keep people together.

The authors of this article should be ashamed of themselves. I cannot believe people bash other persons who give so much to this world as Angelina Jolie. Why would you try to bash someone who goes to different countries and brings poverty and disaster awareness to the world in hopes that the world may respond and help these less fortunate individuals. It is pathetic. The authors should be ashamed of themselves because they are so selfish and self centered. These articles hurt good people. I see the same thing with the media and Clay Aiken. He, like Jolie, is a UN Ambassador and gives his time like Jolie to impoverished countries and brings awareness and raises money for the less fortunate. Why don’t you get on a plane and fly 50 hours to an impoverished country and raise awareness several times a year? Go to disaster sites for yourself and hear the cries for help? Instead you want to sit on the computer and bash good celebrities who are most likely holding a sick child’s hand or speaking to a foreign doctor trying to find out if there is something you can do to help? Both Jolie & Aiken have truly good hearts. For this, I respect them both and the media should too. Who cares if Clay Aiken is gay or not? And another thing, Brad & Jen were so over for years before Jolie even entered the picture. Get over the tanned Jennifer Aniston who spends her days spray tanning herself and working out!

People need to STOP re-cycling trash from the mags. What are they going to do at the end of the year when Brangelina is still together? Extend their break-up date to next year, then what happens when next year ends & they are still together? Leave them alone. Go find someone else to tell lies on.

Oh my god. Maybe you freakazoids should stop attacking the person writing this article. If you didn’t thrive on this garbage they wouldn’t be writing it in the first place. Grow up, move out of your parents basement and get a real life. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are humans not gods and godesses. Humans have real problems and real lives. They poop just like you do. Its very obvious these two have some serious relationship trouble. If you were under their kind of pressure, you’d crack like humptydumpty. I’d like to add that this pressure is of their own choosing. They choose this lifestyle and to be in the public eye. The tabloids didn’t choose that for them. If you readers weren’t so interested in their lives nobody woeuld be writting about it. Get it? It’s all fueled by your stupid little need to know and you having to eat up every little scrap the tabloids feed you. So please, save your beotching for something that really matters.
I’ve got a great idea. Instead of spending your days combing the internet, reading tabloids and telling off the people who are giving you what you asked for, how about you write to the president instead and tell him what a mess our country is. Now that’s something to cry about.
What a bunch of double standard babies.

As a fan of Brad, I really don’t want see their break-up. I don’t want to see Brad got hurt. But I prepare myself for reality of possible break-up. Tabloids report this they must smell something. Just like they reported Brad and Jen’s marriage had problems before. And then later they divoced. Angelina has a very difficult personality. She is very difficult to get along with on movie set and at home. I heard she always fight with directors during shooting films. She has huge ego. She doesn’t realize how lucky she is to have Brad in her life. He is a great father, partner, actor and great man.
Angelina will not find one better than him at all. If she is not facing her problem and making changes to make this relationship work. Sooner and later they are going to break up. I believe Brad will move on, he will find another, he will get married and have many kids.
Comment by all considered — April 23, 2007 @ 11:51 am
I’m sorry but that is some bullshit. If anyone believes anything from Life and Style, Star, OK Magazine, or In touch….I highly recommend you get some meds to help fix your problem. Do Brad and Angelina fight? Hell yeah of course. They probably hate each other sometime, but some crazy people who just take what they read from tabloids and run with it. Got to wake up and smell the roses, Brad is not leaving Angelina Jolie. It wont happen, he is not going back to Jen. Is there probably some friction b/w the couple maybe so, or maybe not. Either way let them be. Damn people get so up in arms about this couple. And yet they are still around,TWO years and counting.
Now the minute Us weekly, or People writes they are having trouble yeah you can put some stock in that but those low rate mags above. Please! This is where I call NEXT!
Comment by raqchel — April 23, 2007 @ 1:45 pm
People and Angelina are on each other’s bankroll. And Us Magazine just ran a story about Angelina not loving her daughter Shiloh and abandoning her kids two weeks ago.
Some people are blinded by PR. Angelina and Brad ought to give their publicity firms a raise for brainwashing so many people.

What is it the wise say - The way to tell the greatness of a person is by counting the arrows thrown at his back. People who have contributed most to the advancement of societies have made the most mistakes and have been thrown most arrows at. So, in a way, those who are throwing arrows at Angelina are just attesting to her greateness. If she wanted to avoid criticism, she’d have to do nothing, say nothing, and be nothing. Would we want that?! I’d rather watch the mags and silly bloggers bash at her. She doesn’t need our or even Brad’s defence. Remember, those who mind don’t matter, and those who matter - don’t mind!

Comment by ACE — April 23, 2007 @ 6:32 pm
This is quite funny, when the tabloids said they were cheatin,they were even though they and their reps denied it until photographs were available. When he was with Jen, the tabloids said they were having trouble, they and their reps denied it, the are simply doing damage control. I have seen them together and they are not what a happy couple that will stay together looks like. Everyone needs to take a step back, look at the history and see what the truth is and clearly that is not what the reps will dish out.

Angelina is mentally ill and she is adopting children like Amelda bought shoes. She’ll be back into kinky sick sex and blood drippings and tongue french kissing her real brother and Brat Pitt will be in love and lost as the lame he’s proved to be. It’s over girls and boys, so get used to it. There isn’t a layer of happiness betwween them and nary a smile between any of them, including the children. They are an accident waiting to happen. It’s all over, if not today, one day, not too long in the future. As for the kids, what kids?? The children are never part of their life but at camera time and they leave them with others to take care of them. Pax and Shiloh got the worst deal of all. She’s unloved by her mommy and defined a blob by Jolie and Pax had his name and country changed and an entire life redesigned while the new mother Jolie is off running around. She’d be in a straight jacket if she were not in the lime light. She is insane.. sick… and Brad Pitt’s parents are witnesses to her insanity. They are normal people and so was Jennifer, it is all Pitt’s fault he ended up in this hell, a shell of a relationship. UGH!!!
Comment by VAL — April 23, 2007 @ 7:26 pm
Sorry folks…he has yet to ADOPT the children. All that has been done is paperwork to legally change their names. I’ve done this before and the paperwork does not mention ADPOT anywhere…here is a link, see it for yourselves.

too many denials, from celebrities, have lead to a lot of truths….remember the denial that this particular couple said that we are just friends? Well, things speak for themselves.

Yes, SOMETIMES tabloids are true, but wasn’t it reported two or three weeks ago that the tabloids are mad at Angelina because she keeps giving her exclusives to PEOPLE Magazine, so they turned on her? How soon we forget.
Comment by Jamie — April 23, 2007 @ 10:27 pm
When are people going to accept the fact that Brad is done with Jennifer? He’s not going back to her, sorry Jen Fans.
Comment by Leah — April 23, 2007 @ 10:33 pm
Oh I see. Only the tabloid PEOPLE is acceptable to the Brangeloonies? A tabloid IS a tabloid Loonies. You Loonies are just mad because you’ll all (hopefully) kill yourselves when they break up. Which they WILL do by the end of the year. They’re not really together right now, it’s all just a PR Game for them Loonies.
Comment by brangelunatics are idiots — April 23, 2007 @ 11:51 pm
Jennifer Aniston should stay out of Brad Pitt’s life. She had Brad in her life once but failed to keep him. Had she not given more priority to her “Friends” career while they were married, Brad would not be with Angelina Jolie now. Jennifer should find another man she can call her own and leave Brad and Angie alone!
Comment by Jen — April 24, 2007 @ 1:19 am
Guys, I think you shouldn’t fight over that sort of stuff. I think they were never meant to be…I think they are both great…but in their own way…He is down to earth, midwestern guy who needs a wife that is not such a supergirl as Angelina, because she simply overshadowes him…He was much bigger when with Jen. Don’t get me wrong…I think Angie is another legue…she is upper class and cannot be compared to Jen…Jen is girl next door, sweet, but average - Angelina is sexy, beautiful, striking and everything but average. I think a break-up would be best for everyone involved. It seems like they come from different places - they don’t work for me…I wasn’t all about Brangelina anyway…I prefere them separately…I think they don’t belong together.

OMG, I didn’t know there were still people this ignorant in the world. Sit back and read this article you wrote and see how ignorant and bias you sound. Just leave these people alone for God’s sake!!!!!
Comment by Amadu — April 24, 2007 @ 6:16 am
Brad and Jen are over and have been for a few years. She should move on and find a man she can keep. She couldn’t even keep Vince. Vince of all people. Most women in hollywood wouldn’t date Vince. So all this talk about Brad still talking to Jen…Jen spending time with Brad’s family… are all deperate attempts by Jen fans to make Brad and Angie’s relationship look Bad, and continues denial of the fact that Brad actually dumped Jen for Angie. Plus, they can’t stand the fact that Brad and Angie have 4 kids and are a happy family. Sorry guys. Even if they breakup, which 90% of American couple do at some point, they will still be connected by those kids. Shame on all the TABOIDS including the author of this article.
Comment by Liz — April 24, 2007 @ 6:28 am
When Brad was married to Jennifer and the rumors were flying about a possible spit, you only read about in tabloid magazines like ok, enquirer, lifestyle etc…Their “reps” were denying it all over the place. People magazine won’t report it until their “reps” confirm it. This is why they get exclusive interviews and photos etc… Brad and Angelina will announce there split after they are done promoting their 2 new movies. Mark my words they are never going to be together forever. Never.

Being a star, it must be frustrating to be under such public scrutiny, continually. These people, however, chose this profession, with this in mind, and were no doubt well aware that this would be the consequence of being in the public eye.
The bottom line is though, that regardless of what you read, and regardless of who you believe, the odds are that this couple will not be couple beyond the next year or two.
They have enough strikes against them: they did not have the best foundation to begin their relationship in the first place. (He was married and despite their assertion that they weren’t closely involved, there are pictures that show contrary.) She has had 2 previous failed marriages, he has had one. They don’t have the support of their family. They have also added enough children to their family, to distract from their relationship and what might have been time to bond as a couple. These are the facts. It is not conjecture to forsee a break up in the future, it is statistics. The odds are not in their favor, to make it as a couple. That is the reality.
So, regardless of who you favor, or what team you might be on, rest assured, the odds are that 20 years from now, baby Shiloh will be the topic of the day, and “Brangelina” will just be a faded memory. Don’t take offense about a break-up. It is inevitable.

People don’t take site just now.
It is free to speak out what people think.
If they can survive, they will.
Just wait and see.
Adpoting children don;t make her saint.
But to love then and time for them is essential if she meant to be good to them.
But I reckon she just using the adoption to gain more fame.
Only acting!!
