So THIS is where Angelina and Brad are going to settle down. Huh. Looks big. Aren't they afraid of losing the kids in this giant city they just bought? Or are they going to be like the Duggars and just keep having children until there are so many it's an entirely new culture of beautiful people who look after each other and make French Toast? That's IT! The rest of us aren't good enough to hang out with them so they're raising their own society. Brilliant. Given how much I hate people, I think it's a great idea.

Just LOOK at that place. I bet it's filled with French pastries. I hope they adopt me too. Us people haters have to stick together. No dumbass, it's NOT an oxymoron. Clearly you don't qualify.

Look at my people. LOOK AT MY PEOPLE!

Angelina Remembers Her Mother At Cannes

A pregnant Angelina told the press at Cannes that her latest performance was inspired by her late mother. Clint Eastwood and Angleina were being honored for "Changeling," a film based in 1920's Los Angeles, about a lost boy and a corrupt police department.

"I lost my mother a few months before the film and to me [this character is] very much like my mother," said Jolie at a press conference right after the film's world premiere. Her mother, actress Marcheline Bertrand, died in January of 2007.

"My mother was very passive in many ways and very, very sweet but when it came to her children she was a lion. Christine reminded me of my mom and it was a way to revisit my mother and spend time with her. So it was very nice and - in that way - very healing and interesting for me."

"When I first read it, I couldn't put it down and then I couldn't stop thinking about it," said Jolie. "But I didn't necessarily want to do it. I didn't want to experience what that felt like for months. When Clint was doing it, I knew that he would help me through it and that it wouldn't be too painful."

The Jolie-Pitt's Buy a $60 Million Dollar House

What do you get when you cross 1,000-acres of land, 35 bedrooms, a vineyard, a lake, a forest and moat? (Seriously, wait till you hear THIS!)

You get the new home of Angelina, Brad, Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and a couple of unborn Brangelina spawn. Good thing these twins should pull in $20 million!

"It's called Chateau Miraval in a village called Brignol, which is near from Aix-en-Provence," a source tells E! News. "And it's absolutely unbelievable.

"Brad and Angelina are thrilled, they love the place and have already been furniture shopping to fill the place as it's massive," the insider added. "They've already spent almost another million on furniture and the whole family can't wait to move in."

If the above laundry list of features wasn't enough for you, the estate also features a swimming pool, billiards room, indoor pool, his-and-hers gyms, sauna and jacuzzi and a huge banquet hall.

The bonus for the Jolie-Pitts? Except for the ponies and goats grazing in the nearby fields, "the house is surrounded by a forest so they'll have total privacy, which is exactly what they're after," the source tells E! "No one will ever be able to get pictures of them relaxing at home, it's just impossible."

I gotta hand it to them -- if they are doing this to protect their children from the paparazzi, kudos.
