“Brad seemed happy to be free. He was out until after midnight and never checked in with his family once…. In fact, he didn’t text of call anyone the whole night!”

We’re reporting this and running an Angelina Jolie fan site so it would seem hypocritical to ask, but why are people so interested in Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s  lives? It is truly difficult to  understand the obsession; but in any regard, we’re thinking Angelina probably wanted to demonstrate how much more amazingly different from ordinary women she is by insisting that poor, tired Brad go out and have a little fun. She probably encouraged him to go out and flirt a little and not worry about her or the kids. You know how perfect she is….

When Angelina adopted Maddox, he was only 7 months old. Now, the eldest of the Jolie-Pitt kids has turned 7 years old today. Time really flies with how kids grow up.

Happy Birthday Maddox!

In fact, Johnny Depp was even photographed angry as he flipped off some photographers that were shooting him and his family. Since everyone knows that Johnny Depp is a gentle-natured actor, this is not a good sign.

Some reports are saying that Johnny Depp is now house-hunting in England, but this may also be due to his new Tim Burton film, “Alice in Wonderland”. Meanwhile, Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp are both being rumored to play the next vilains in Batman. However, this has not been confirmed by Nolan or any other Batman bosses.

A source told Britain’s Star magazine: “Angelina Jolie is devastated over the earthquake that occurred in China in May. She has been in constant touch with relief workers as part of her UN involvement, and even got her hands on photos of a few orphaned kids. She’s made overtures offering a home to one earthquake orphan, or even two if they are siblings.”

Angelina is already a mom to three biological children from Brad - Shiloh and twins Vivienne & Knox, as well as three adopted children — Maddox, Pax and Zahara. In the recent People magazine issue, Angelina admits that it’s hard coping with the babies, but she’s getting help from the rest of the family, saying, “It is chaos, but we are managing it and having a wonderful time. Shiloh calls the twins her babies. She and Zahara pick out their clothes, help change and hold them. It’s sweet - they are like little mommies.”

The movie, which is directed by Clint Eastwood, is set in the 1920s and based on true events. According to US magazine (US online or get an US Weekly magazine subscription, Angelina based her role on her real mother Marcheline Bertrand, who died January 2007 of cancer.

The film is scheduled to be released on October 24.

When asked about their residence in South of France, “It is chaos,” laughs Angelina Jolie, “but we are managing it and having a wonderful time.”

“[Shiloh] and Z pick out [the twins'] clothes and help change and hold them,” she added.

Doting dad Brad, meanwhile, confides: “Viv is proving to resemble Ange in spirit, attitude and physicality… And Knox, he’s a bit of me.”

This issue of Hello! magazine would be on stands later, Monday August 4.

According to sources that are part of the negotiations, the bidding war for the twins were more difficult compared to the previous Jolie-Pitt kids.One source said, “OK! (Magazine) was in a much better position than ever before to be in the game. Price per twin, you’re looking at about $7 million each.”

Another source claims that reports about Brad and Angelina turning down a higher bid from Ok! magazine was false. “That’s a lie. Negotiating ended and People won. There was no $20 million offer.”

People was awarded the North AMerican rights and Hello! for the international rights, exactly how the Shiloh pictures were dealt. The Associated Press reports that all the money received from these photos would be donated to a foundation created by Pitt and Jolie that largely focuses on helping children worldwide. One condition of the photo deal was that the winning magazine would have to agree to no longer refer to Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie as “Brangelina” EVER.

“We’re thrilled to be able to feature these pictures in People,” managing editor Larry Hackett said in a statement.

People and Hello! magazine would split the $14-million bill. The money would go to a foundation created by Jolie and Pitt, which focuses on helping children around the world.

Even before the twins were born, rumors circled on which magazine would cover the most sought-after babies in the history of Hollywood babies. So, it was no surprise if the couple chose  People and Hello!, which both covered Brad and Angelina’s first biological daughter last 2006. And yes, Getty Images remained the photographer and go-between.

Getty Images also took part this time around. In a statement, Getty co-founder and CEO Jonathan Klein said his company was “delighted that all proceeds from these stunning images will once again be donated entirely to charity.”

Roger Friedman writes that both People and Hello! magazines would get large tax breaks because they could list down the payment as donations to the Foundation. He also listed down the 2007 charity report made by the A-list couple saying, “The Pitts parked over $8.5 million in the charity, evenly divided between the two of them. Most of the $2.4 million that was distributed to charities included $1 million each to the Epidermolysis Foundation and Doctors without Borders. The Red Cross in Namibia, where baby Shiloh was born, got $137,035 although it’s unclear whether any of the local jounalists who lost their jobs during that time were ever compensated”

Friedman also made some guesses as to where the Jolie-Pitt foundation would send in its donations, which included  the children’s hospital where the babies were born, the families in New Orleans and the American Gulf Coast where Pitt has shown in interest in.
