Pictures of Knox and Vivienne Jolie-Pitt Faked?!

Whit Honea — Tue, 05 Aug 2008 01:04:00 GMT

The folks at NY Magazine are calling shenanigans on People. Actually, they're calling Photoshop. They are claiming that little Vivienne Marcheline is not yet able to smile (or Knox Leon for that matter) and that the grin we see is actually the result of some fancy tampering.

"In that cover photo, it looks like Vivienne Marcheline — clearly the Ashley half of this Olsen-like combo — is sporting a giant grin. She may even be laughing. Hold on. These babies are purported to be a mere 3 weeks old! Parenting magazine says that babies don't smile from exterior stimulation until two to four months — even if said exterior stimulation is the most beautiful pair of humans in the entire world."

StrollerDerby isn't sure that they agree and asks, "what to you think? Photoshopped? Or is Vivi working out a bit of flatulence? Come on, we parents know even newborns make all kinds of faces, even if Parenting magazine hasn't explicitly told us so."

Personally, I never would have thought such a thing, but it's not like Photoshopping magazine covers is unheard of. I do have trouble believing that Brad and Angelina would agree to the face of their new baby being altered- and it seems like they would have some say in the cover before it was released.

That's just a theory. They may have been busy changing diapers when it went to press.

In the meantime, these photos are clearly unaltered.

First Pictures of Vivienne and Knox Jolie-Pitt Mean Goodbye Brangelina

I'm sure you've heard the big news - the first photos of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's twins were released last night. But what you didn't hear about is what the publications had to agree to in order to secure the prized photos of little Vivienne Marcheline and Knox Leon.

In a joint deal, People and Hello! magazines reportedly paid $15 million for the coveted pics, with the condition that the victorious magazine would have to agree to no longer refer to Brad and Angelina as 'Brangelina.'

I'm thinking this is because Angelina's always been pissed that Brad's name comes first in that nickname - she probably would like for them to be referred to as 'Angelrad' from here on out.

Angelina Jolie Twins Photos: SOLD!!!

sweatpantsmom — Mon, 14 Jul 2008 19:58:00 GMT

Mink diapers and diamond pacifiers, anyone? Brangelina twins Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline are barely three days old but are already worth a fortune. Nice Matin, the hometown newspaper that first broke the news of the births, reported on Sunday that Angelina and Brad have already sold the rights for the first photo of the twins to a U.S. publication and that the proceeds would go to charity. Nice Matin puts the photos' worth at more than $11 million. The name of the publication has not been revealed.

Darryn Lyons, owner of celebrity photo agency Big Pictures in London, thinks the snaps are worth more in the $15 - $20 million range. The only other photos that "would possibly come that close is Britney Spears giving birth to an alien," he said.

Then there's veteran London-based publicist Max Clifford, who sees something more divine in the escalating worth of the babies' photos and the paparazzi's desperation to get a piece of the action.

"In the celebrity world, it seems to be the double second coming."

Photos! Angelina Jolie Names Daughter After Mom Marcheline Bertrand

sweatpantsmom — Sun, 13 Jul 2008 19:47:00 GMT

The Brangelina twins have finally arrived. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt welcomed Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline on Saturday night. And Angelina lovingly pays tribute to her late mother, Marcheline Bertrand, with the naming of her new daughter.

Actress Bertrand, who Angelina frequently praised as a good mom and friend, died in 2007 after a lengthy battle with ovarian cancer. Marcheline raised Angelina and her brother, James Haven, on her own after her divorce from Angie's father Jon Voight in 1978.

Bertrand had small roles in movies such as Blake Edwards' 1983 comedy "The Man Who Loved Women." She grew up in Chicago, and according to daughter Angelina Jolie, Bertrand was often wrongly identified as a French actress: "My mom is as far from French Parisian as you can get. She grew up in a bowling alley that my grandparents owned."

Creepy Daddy Larry Birkhead Buys Up Anna Nicole's Playboy Lingerie FOR Dannielynn

Karen — Sun, 22 Jun 2008 18:30:00 GMT

I couldn't help getting completely skeeved out by Larry Birkhead's latest parenting decision: to purchase $3000 worth of Anna Nicole's lingerie from a Playboy shoot, and claming he was doing so to have these "heirlooms" put away for Dannielynn.

Say again?

He wants to make sure his young daughter has something to remember her mother by.

Yes, really.

"I have a lot of history I have to put together that she doesn't really know about," Birkhead told The Associated Press. "Playboy was such a big part of Anna's career."

Yes, yes it was. Sigh. That kid has no shot at a normal life, does she?

Yay! Barack Obama Clinches the Democratic Presidential Nomination

sweatpantsmom — Wed, 04 Jun 2008 01:10:00 GMT

The Associated Press is reporting that Sen. Barack Obama has clinched the Democratic presidential nomination. He becomes the first black candidate to lead a major party into a campaign for the White House.

“Tonight, I can stand before you and say that I will be the Democratic nominee for president of the United States,” Obama planned to say in a victory celebration speech. He'll make the speech in St. Paul, Minn., the site of the convention that will nominate his Republican opponent in the fall, Sen. John McCain of Arizona.

Throughout the day speculation increased that Hilary Clinton could possibly join Obama on the ticket as a running mate. In a call that took place Tuesday between Clinton and members of the New York congressional delegation, Clinton signaled an interest in that prospect, but stopped short of conceding to Obama or dropping out of the race. Clinton has said she would be "open to it" if it would help the party's prospects in November.

Congratulations to Barack Obama! His wife Michelle and his children must be excited and proud today.

O.J. Simpson Confesses To Murder?!

Sassy Smith — Sun, 11 May 2008 01:58:00 GMT

More people than not believed that O.J. Simpson murdered Nicole Brown Simpson, the mother of his children, and her friend Ron Goldman and now, according to Mike Gilbert, Simpson confessed to doing it!

This from TMZ:

According to a memorabilia dealer's upcoming book, O.J. spilled the juicy details of what happened on the night Nicole Brown Simpson and Ronald Goldman were murdered.

Mike Gilbert claims that O.J. had smoked pot, took a sleeping pill and was drinking beer when Simpson told him he didn't bring a knife to his ex-wife's apartment on June 12, 1994 -- and that, "If she hadn't opened that door with a knife in her hand ... she'd still be alive."

Gilbert also claims he helped Simpson avoid the murder charges by telling him how to bloat his hands so they wouldn't fit in the infamous Isotoners, according to the AP Simpson's current lawyer said that none of the claims are true and that Gilbert is "a delusional drug addict who needs money."

I wonder how Nicole's children handle all of this? I'm sure they believe their father is completely innocent. Can't wait to see how this plays out!

Gag-o-rific: Amy Fisher to Promote Sex Tape With Husband

sweatpantsmom — Sun, 06 Jan 2008 23:47:00 GMT

Any interest in seeing these two doing it? Amy Fisher, aka The Long Island Lolita, is joining her husband in an attempt to market a sex tape that was leaked on the internet. She tells the Associated Press, "I always wanted to be No. 1 at something, but I didn't think it would be something like this."

The 'No. 1' claim may be a little ambitious on Amy's part. Judging by this picture of the sexay duo I wouldn't bet on the tape being a big seller. Although, I just read this morning that Alvin and the Chipmunks is a hit, so maybe I don't know crap about the public's taste.

Fisher, who has a six-year-old son and a three-year-old daughter, is most well known for her other role:. As a teenager she went to prison for seven years for shooting Mary Jo Buttafuoco, the wife of her then-lover Joey Buttafuoco, in the face. The auto mechanic, twice her age, served time for statuatory rape for having sex with a 16-year old.

Fisher admits that as her kids get older it will be hard to explain to them what mommy does and why she's famous. I guess she can always show them the tape, or the Glock.
