Jolie Finally Fesses Up: She's Having Twins
May 14, 2008 3:31 PM
Well, it's about time.
After months of rumors about the soon-to-be newest members of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's brood, Jolie confirmed to "Access Hollywood" that she is indeed pregnant with twins.
During an interview in Cannes, France, where she's promoting "Kung Fu Panda," Jolie's co-star Jack Black said, "You're gonna have as many as [the] Brady Bunch when you have these."
Asked if she is indeed carrying twins, Jolie said, "Yeah, yeah, we've confirmed that already. Well, Jack's just confirmed it actually."
The babies will be the fifth and sixth additions to the A-list couple's clan. Jolie did not reveal her due date.
The actress has stayed tight-lipped about her second pregnancy, but her growing belly's told the whole story. Tabloids and blogs have been on a baby bump watch since she showed up at January's Screen Actors Guild awards in a loose, tent-style dress and avoided alcohol all night. Jolie wordlessly confirmed the rumors when she arrived at February's Independent Spirit Awards in a curve-hugging, belly-highlighting black dress.
Jolie first commented on her pregnancy in April, when she told People magazine that she "felt kicking suddenly" while discussing Iraq education policy at an event in Washington D.C. (In addition to being a mom and an Oscar-winning actress, Jolie's also a U.N. goodwill ambassador.)
The Jolie-Pitt crew currently consists of Maddox, 6; Pax, 4; Zahara, 3; and Shiloh, Jolie's first child by birth, who turns 2 this month.

this is getting ridiculous, i think there are some serious mental issues going on with someone constantly procreating or having to adopt babies all the time. must be a result of her childhood.

Oh that's rich, so the desire to have children is a mental illness now?? As long as she can provide for them & love them, what's it to you or anyone else? Are they sending you their diaper bills or something?

Leave the woman alone! IF she wants to have more children, can take care of them (apparently is taking good care of them), then what's the problem?? As long as the children are loved and wanted, who are we to judge. Good luck Angelina and Brad!

what about the women that her and her husband are populating the world naturally they have 17 and are about to have #18 this year. is it okay for them to keep populating the world... at least angelina and brad can afford to have the kids....

In my entire life i have met only 4 pairs of twin. How come that now there is an epidemic of twins in Hollywood. Give me a break. All they want is the status and recognition (and the money) that comes from selling their pictures to people magazine.

I don't have a problem with her having babies...have all you want as long as they are ALL loved equally and cared for equally. What I DO have a problem with her and Brad.....there are tons of children here in the United States that need good and loving homes. All these celebrities who live in the U.S. and are citizens of our country tend to forget that! What's wrong with adopting an AMERICAN BABY? There are lots of babies and children that need adopting right in our own back yard!

This is not CHINA---Thank heaven! They can have as many babies as they want. THEY are better parents than a lot of us and can provide a whatever their children need. Besides, they have brought a lot of attention to world and US problems and have done TONS of good for society. If this was any other family, no one would say a word about their welcoming more children into the world. DO you think they MEANT to have twins anyway? Get serious!

I love hearing about happy parents in a stable relationship having lots of children. It's the unstable parents that abort or deny their children. For example: Scary Spice/Eddie Murphy.

Leave them alone, They have a lot of love to give these children, at least they are taking care of them, which is more than a lot of people.

Yea... what ABOUT all the babies in America that need loving homes... maybe if they would begin to open up adoptions to seriously responsible, caring gay couples this problem could be alleviated...

Remind me why I'm supposed to care?
Maybe they can hire Jennifer Aniston as their nanny....

Leave them alone they can you what they want. They have the money to take care of them, so let them be.

Well done to her - now and we move on with real more important news?
Posted by: Anne | May 14, 2008 4:26:23 PM
OMG, SHAME on u ppl that r talking trash about how many children they r having. As long as they r supporting then and showing love. Which remind u they DO!! Then what is the big deal? Who is to say how many kids a couple can have in this country?
Posted by: mommafor6yrold | May 14, 2008 4:34:45 PM
I'm just glad they are having several of their own as well as adopting. But it concerns me that Angie says she feels her birth children have a sense of entitlement and she makes sure to give extra care to the adopted ones. That's not right. It should be equal.

Six kids is mental? Humans are designed to have large numbers of offspring... Just look back through history, and people had a bunch of kids, without healthcare quite a few died. Having kids is a pretty ingrained trait.

I think it's great that they want to give loving homes to children. As far as them adopting outside of the U.S., that's their decision. I personally think that it's great that they are adopting children from proverty stricten countries. Their are plenty of people fighting over white babies and unable to get them so they've gone to China for a white skinned baby. I think it's great that the Pitts have adopted some children of color.

Let's see China has suffered a catastrophic earthquake, Myanmar has been hit by a major typhoon, yet Brangelina's latest production(s) rank along side those two tragedies? Give me a break...leave the entertainment news to the entertainment mags and report on what is real news.
Posted by: Donna | May 14, 2008 5:24:52 PM
Maybe people would feel better about this little family if the parents would get married. How easy is it to commit to children when you cannot commit to each other? The message they are sending to their children is that they love them enough to fill out adoption papers but not a marriage license.
