More On Blessed Jolie-Pitt Twin Birth, Full Translation Of Nice-Matin Article
Major hattip goes out to our radio co-conspirator, Will Kern at WorldMeetsUs.com for having his team translate the original scoop on the immaculate twins, Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline, birthed by Saint Angelina and Sir Brad Pitt this past Saturday.
Will’s site, dedicated to serving the United States in understanding how the rest of the world perceives us from their point of view, does a segment with Shaun Daily on BlogTalkRadio’s BTRToday show. Glosslip, or as they affectionately refer to us, the Glosslippers, come on after Will. And who says celeb journalism has no relevance? Only a**hats me thinks.
So, without further ado, straight from France, here’s the original scoop from Nice-Matin, translated for your enjoyment. Thanks Will and WorldMeetsUs.com
The most celebrated infants in the world were born just before 8pm last night at the Santa Maria Clinic of the Lenval Foundation Hospital. Angelina Jolie, 33-years-old, has brought twins into the world: Knox Leon Jolie-Pitt, a small boy at 2.27 kilos [about five pounds] and Vivienne Marcheline, also a petit 2.28 kilos. The two were worth over $11 million even before they let out their first cry: the exclusive first-ever photo of the extended Pitt family – now six children – has been sold by the couple to an American magazine to benefit a humanitarian cause.
It was Angelina Jolie’s doctor in Nice who confirmed this information to our newspaper last night: “Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are doing very well in Nice. And that’s why they made a point of reserving for Nicites [the people of Nice] and Nice – through Nice-Matin – the announcement of their happiness,” said Dr. Michel Sussmann.
The media pressure had subsided around the Nice clinic over recent days. Tired of craning their necks in vain, the paparazzi had taken a few days off and Angelina and her Nice gynecologist, Dr. Michel Sussmann, off-footed everyone. The Caesarean section that had long been scheduled was brought forward a few days. Born shortly before 8pm July 12, the boy-girl twins of Angelina and Brad Pitt are doing well, just as their global-star mother. The operation performed by Dr. Sussmann was conducted without any major problems. A birth of twins is like any other birth … even if as late as yesterday a fallacious rumor was circulating that Angelina was suffering from diabetes, where in fact she was simply tired.
They were doubtless more than a little fatigued: two days before bringing two babies into the world, Miss Jolie was exhausted after 21 days of imprisonment in her VIP [Very Important Pregnancy] hospital room. So the Lenval Foundation convinced her nurse to allow her to take a few steps outside in the open air …
Since she couldn’t expose herself to the photo hunters still camped out in front of the clinic, Angelina enjoyed a little freedom on the roof of the Foundation.
As soon as they were born, the little “people,” Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline, ate some white bread. For the American press, the glamour birth is … “The most important event since man walked on the moon.”
And now their “first smile” will be pursued relentlessly by the hundreds of paparazzi who reassembled after this morning’s announcement outside the Lenval Foundation, which is now destined to remain under siege by the media. And that may be just the beginning.
Even though he’s a planetary star, Brad, the proud papa, will – like any other man – have to submit to the sacred Republican declaration of civil birth … within forty-eight hours. And it’s likely that on that day, one will have to risk being jostled on the way to the central chamber of Nice City Hall to get a glimpse of the handsome Brad receiving his family record book embossed with the eagle of Nice.
Congrats you two proud parents! Wishing you both all the best $11 million can buy in charitable donations and guilt assuaging. Lord knows you two attention-whores need it.
Seriously, I doubt if Jesus (Allah, Buddha, L.Ron Hubbard, insert deity of choice) came down themselves and announced these two (Brad and Angie) were minions of Lucifer, the dark Lord himself, would make people change their perception of these two nitwits.
I think they need to buy a private island and go live in Far, Far Away.

Wow, that’s a very strange and sychophantic article from France. And the newborns immediately ate white bread? Is that some French euphemism, or did they literally gum some white bread after they were born?
Poor Shiloh, she is now relegated the the second most celebrated infant in the world. Fame is fleeting baby Shiloh.
