According to www.bild.de, Angelina Jolie and her family do not get jet-lag
“We travel so much, we never have to adjust. We change school time to four in the afternoon if we have to,” Jolie told ‘OK’. “Our kids are always packing, they like to pack; it’s a game in our house.”
I am not sure whether to say lucky kids because they have a chance to see the world or feel bad for them for being on the move so much.
But… I would love traveling that much, if I was not for my fear of planes.
The Twins Sick?It has been reported that Angelina Jolie’s twins are sick, that is why they are kept out of the spot light, according to www.entertainmentwise.com.
A source tells Star magazine, “They haven’t been the healthiest babies. Angie is being neurotic with Knox and Viv. She won’t let anyone near them without sanitizing their hands and taking off their shoes. She’s really freaking out.”
I do not think she is being neurotic. If I had a baby that was sick, I would also make people wash their hands. I did not think of taking off their shoes, but that is not a bad idea.
According to www.people.com, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are nominations for the Orange British Academy Film Awards, which is like the United States’s Oscars.
Not only is Brad Pitt nominated for the movie The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, but he is also up for best supporting actor in the Coen Brothers’ Burn After Reading.
The winners will be announced on February 8 at the London’s Royal Opera House.
Good Luck to Angelina, Brad and the other nominations.
First at the 14th Annual Critic’s Choice Awards, an onlooker told InTouch Magazine, “”They couldn’t keep their hands off each other. They were full-on making out.”
Then there was an onlooker at the Beverly Hills Hilton.
“They looked so in love,” said Diana Hayden. “Brad had his arm around Angie’s waist and she had hers in her back pocket.”
“They really try to make the most of spending those hours together. They’re back on track and have fallen in love all over again,” said an insider
I did not know they were out of love, but if they have fallen back into that is great.
To Work or Not to Work
According to The Associated Press, Angelina Jolie is thinking of making a brief return to work.
“I have had a year off, and I may work for a few months,” Angelina says. “But if I do, I’m probably going to take another year and a half or two. I’m going to work a lot less.”
Angelina is one of my favorite actress. I look forward to her films, but I can understand where she is coming from. She does have a full house to raise and that cannot be easy.

Not a Good Housewife
According to /www.transworldnews.com, Angelina told OK! Magazine that she is not a great housewife.
“Honestly, I’m not a very good housewife but luckily Brad is great in the house. He has a good eye for structure and architecture. For example, we love to share breakfast, all of us, so we have an excellent place with a lot of light,” Angelina says.
Angelina and Brad denied rumors that they are getting married, but they still not have commented abut the rumor that Angelina is pregnant again, which may not be a good idea according to some doctors.
Martial Arts
According to www.theimproper.com and OK! Magazine, Angelina Jolie loves martial arts.
That doesn’t surprise me.
“I love martial arts,” Angelina told OK! magazine. “They are ideal for children because they teach them discipline and perseverance. My son [Maddox, 7] is already starting to go to class.”
It is true that it does teach them discipline.
Angelina Jolie has been living a health lifestyle, “Physical exercise is ideal, it’s much better than sitting in front of the TV or the computer screen,” Jolie says.
What kind of movies does Angelina Jolie likes to watch?
“I like all of Bruce Lee’s films; he was the best,” she says. “I also like Jackie Chan a lot—my kids are Jackie Chan fans.”
I have not really seen any Bruce Lee films, but I have seen many of Jackie Chan. I love his movies.
“I had a whole other life and I got to experience a lot. And I probably got away with more than I should. And it kind of ran its course, you know, it kind of hit a dead end,” E! Online quoted him as saying. “(Fatherhood is) the direction I always thought I would go in. But not until, with Angie and it felt like a natural evolution, a natural direction,” he added.
How sweet. It seems that he always have completes for Angelina and his family.
Brad also said that Angelina and his kids have “made him a more fine-tuned actor,” because he wants to get the job done so her can get home to his family.
Jon Voight Wants to End the Fight With Angelina Jolie
Jon Voight, now 70 years old, wants to end the feud with his daughter Angelina Jolie, according to www.showbizspy.com,
The problem started in August 2002, when Jon Voight said that his daughter had “serious emotional problems.”
I do not think that claim would set well with anyone. Angelina stated that she didn’t want a relationship with her father.
“My father and I don’t speak. I don’t hold any anger toward him. I don’t believe that somebody’s family becomes their blood. Because my son’s adopted, and families are earned.”
Voight is still reaching out to her. He wants to see her, Brad and his grandchildren.
Jon has said, “I’m always trying to reach her and send her my love.”
“There’s nothing Jon wants more than to have his family back together again” a source told Britain’s Daily Express newspaper.
“It kills him to be shunned by his children. He’s willing to do whatever it takes to put this rift behind him. As Jon grows older he’s realizing the importance of family, and longs to be a part of his daughter and grandchildren’s lives. It breaks his heart to be kept away. Since Angelina’s mother [Marcheline Bertrand] died, Brad Pitt has been gently urging her to reconcile with her father, if not for her sake, then so the children can have their grandfather in their life.”
I hope that Angelina listens to Brad and has a change of heart, so Jon can be apart of their family
How does Angelina Jolie handle everything that she does?
“Well, I do take my time outs. And most of all I do receive support from Brad [Pitt]. We are a good team. That is important to me and gives me strength… I cannot sit quietly while others die of hunger and children. My commitment for the United Nations I do not want to abandon. The play has no greater priority. In February, I still turn a movie, then I suppose one years off.”
How does she make it with out a nervous breakdown?
“I’m very disciplined. I have a balanced diet and among other things I do Pilates. If I’m fit I feel more comfortable and I do have a lot more energy.”
On her role in the Changeling…
“Just the idea of such a possibility made me go completely crazy. Initially, I wanted to cancel it. But the strength and self abandonment of this woman made be accept the role.”
No wonder she had nightmares from the movie.
Will Brad And Angelina Have a Christmas Wedding?
It has been reported that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are debating whether or not to have a Christmas wedding, according to www.transworldnews.com.
“Angelina proposed to Brad recently and suggested a Christmas wedding. When Brad insisted they hold off, Angelina put him on a major guilt trip by telling him the kids want them to be married,” says an insider. ” Brad thinks a wedding right now is biting off more than they can chew. He would like to slow down and go through some couples counseling.”
It has also been reported that the couple are trying to have another set of twins.
According to www.apunkachoice.com, Angelina Jolie is at the top of a poll, who would you want to kiss, from Britain conducted by mobile phone firm LG. She was number one, while Brad Pitt came in two.
Also, on the list where Jessica Alba is number three, Orlando Bloom, Justin Timberlake, Beyonce Knowles, Nicole Kidman, Paris Hilton, David Beckham and Hugh Jackman.
I do not know how long the list is, or what age, but I will say 18 and over, but I am surprised at some of the people on the list, like Emma Watson, Shannon Elizabeth, Lilly Allen, Scarlett Johansson, Prince Harry and Prince William, Shia LeBeouf , Rupert Grint, Daniel Radcliffe, Orlando Bloom, Johnny Depp, and Topher Grace.
Congrads to the people on the list.

I can see how it can be stressful. It is one of parents worse nightmares.
Angelina told the New York Times, “It was like, ‘Do you want to start a pregnancy in this high emotional state?’ I felt so raw. Now we joke that maybe we had too much energy because we ended up with twins! It was a huge surprise – we both got hysterical with laughter when we found out.”

With the holiday season upon us, we hope the generous gift from the Jolie-Pitt Foundation inspires others to give and focus on assisting orphans and highly vulnerable children around the world,” said the charity’s executive director, Jennifer Delaney. “Each and every donation can truly make a difference in the life of a child.”
Delaney is right. Any money will make a great difference. So never think that your donation will not help.

“Since Angie is always in a dilemma of what to buy Brad, she’s getting him the new Ducati Monster 1100S titanium,” an insider told In Touch.
“It’s a surprise. She ordered it from Italy months ago. It’s new and I believe it’s not out yet in Ducati stores. I guess a guy can never have too many bikes!”
Now how is it going to be for Brad when the bike will be all over the place.
Moving to New Orleans
It looks like New Orleans may have some new residents. According to Jennifer Trevorrow, writer for www.entertainmentwise.com, Angelina Jolie and her family will be moving to the Pelican State.
“They love the school and their friends here. Most of all they love Verti Marte,” said Angelina.
Verti Marte is a restaurant in New Orleans.
“Their favorite thing to do is go down there. But for all of us, we just come here and feel at home. We’ve made some great friends. This is the place we feel combines all the culture we love.”
Gingerbread Houses
How cute. According to Shruti Dhalwala, writer for www.people.com, Angelina and Brad’s children are making gingerbread houses.
“They’re making gingerbread houses right now,” Angelina Jolie told PEOPLE.
When asked about her children Angelina said, “They’re great.”
We have once gotten a gingerbread house, but we have never made one. Maybe I do not have the skill to make it. I can’t even build a house of cards.
Angelina Jolie Top Earner
According to http://news.bbc.co.uk and the Hollywood Reporter, Angelina Jolie is the highest paid actress in 2008.
Jolie maked about $15m (£10.2m) for her film “Wanted,” and she could get paid $20 million if she is in the possible sequel to the movie, according to www.reuters.com.
Julia Roberts came in second. She made more than $15 million (£10.2m) for the movie “Duplicity.”

Appreciate the Time That You have With Your Loved Ones
According to www.usmagazine.com and an article in the new Rolling Stone Magazine, Brad Pitt has started to think about his mortality because of his new movie,”The Curious Case of Benjamin Button.”
“Angie and I do not fight anymore,” he says. “What occurred to me on this film, and also with the passing of her mother [actress Marcheline Bertrand in 2007], is that there’s going to come a time when I’m not going to get to be with this person anymore. I’m not going to get to be with my children anymore. Or friends, people I love and respect. And so, if we have a flare-up, it evaporates now.”
Rolling Stones Magazine asked him about an article in the “New York Times.” The “New York Times” was claiming that Angelina was good at controlling the press.
“It sounded to me like the story made Angie out to be manipulative in some way. She is savvy. I get defensive. [They're] talking about not only the woman I love, but one of the people on this planet who I have the greatest respect for. I think she’s as honorable as anyone I’ve ever met.”
How sweet. It is great to hear that from Brad.
Are Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt Adopting?
There is a rumor going around that Angelia and Brad will be adopting soon, even possible when the go on a Christmas trip, according to Patricia Ramos, writer for www.okmagazine.com.
“If they do [adopt], we will love them!” said Brad Pitt’s mother, Jane Etta Hillhouse, to Ok.
When OK asked Angelina the question she said joking, “What do you think? You think that I would tell you if I was?”
Jane Completely trust Angelina and Brad on picking of where and when they will adopt.
“That’s up to them!” she said.
Brad and Angelina have done a great job on their children. I think it is great that they not only have children of their own, but they also adopt. I guess we will have to wait and see what happens next.
According to www.eparsa.fr and The Today Show, Brad Pitt would marry Angelina Jolie if the kids want them to get married.
“I’m really proud of this family. I look at my sons and daughters. I look at my sons and my daughters, and one’s from Vietnam and one’s from Cambodia and one’s from Ethiopia, and … they’re all brothers and sisters. And they’re fighting, they’re laughing, they’re going into hysterics and staying up late, and they’re messing with their parents, and they’re driving me crazy and I’m really proud. “I truly feel rich being around them. It’s a rich home, and each one of ‘em offers so much to the mix.” Pitt said, “Surprising, though: Six kids is not as easy as you would think.”
“If we feel it’s important to our kids, we would,” he said about getting married. “It seems to get cheapened somehow as it goes through the filter and the airwaves. I just want to keep it close to the chest,” Pitt said about wanting to keep his private life private.
I think it would be great if they got married. Hopefully one of theses day, especially if the children want to, but they do not have to wait on the children to decide.
Homes in New Orleans
According to Mike Celizic TODAYShow.com contributor, Brad Pitt organized a charity to rebuild the 9th ward in New Orleans, after Hurricane Katrina came through. The organization is called “Make It Right.”
In the video of The Today Show, Brad Pitt is setting in front of some of the charity’s work, “Now you see it. There’s actually families here who are home for the holidays. And it’s really, really cool,” Brad told TODAY’s Ann Curry.
Brad and Angelina Jolie even have a house in New Orleans. They call it their “adopted hometown.”
The people working on the houses are going to keep busy, “This time next year, you’re going to see 100 homes here,” Brad said. “And not only that . . . these homes, what you don’t see is the way they work. It’s a sunny day. Those meters are running backward. They are off the grid. This is the road to affordable housing that you see right here.”
So what else is special about the houses is that they are being built on pilings, deep foundations, with carports underneath. If they have a flood again, the houses will ride about the water and they will survive.
Great Idea. I cannot wait for the people of New Orleans all have a place to call their home.
Angelina’s Barbie Problem
Angelina Jolie is having a problem with finding a Barbie for Zahara, who is from Ethiopia, according to www.entertainmentwise.com. Zahara wants her hair to look like her mom’s hair.
“. . . Zahara, who’s Ethiopian, wants her hair to look like mine – because it won’t.”
“I’ve looked for a Barbie that’s African, but the African Barbie has straight hair.”
I am not sure where they went, but when I was growing up there was African American Barbie with curly hair. Maybe the Barbie Companies will come up with an African Barbie with curly hair. I remember getting upset because the dolls had blond hair, and mine was reddish brown. Finally they came out with something close to my hair. She had blue black hair.
According to www.timesoftheinternet.com, there is a rumor that Angelina Jolie throws knives when she is angry and when she fights with Brad. Luckily she does not throw them at any one.
A source told Star Magazine (remember this is a rumor), “Their (Pitt and Jolie’s) bodyguards witness the tantrums that Angie tosses when Brad takes off or spends too much money. She throws knives at the wall when she and Brad fight – never at him, but she gets angry and vents with knives.”
Angelina has had a fascination with knifes, since she was young. “I got knives out and had a night where we attacked each other.. it felt so primitive and it felt so honest.. and then I had to deal with, you know, not telling my mother, hiding things, wearing gauze bandages to high school, ” said Jolie.
Not Pregnant
There have been rumors floating around that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are expecting another child.
First, I have to say that she has way too much on her hands already. She helps take care of the family and is or will be shooting a new move.
Jolie’s rep. finally commented on the subject of the pregnancy. The rep. Told Us Weekly that the rumors are untrue.
