Angelina Jolie to adopt again?

Star spotted in Vietnam, sparking baby speculation Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie has been spotted in Vietnam - sparking rumours that she is about to adopt a new baby there.

The mum-of-three reportedly arrived at Ho Chi Minh City last week and has been staying at the Park Hyatt Hotel.

It's rumoured she's planning to take home a baby boy from the Tam Binh orphanage.

If true, her new son will be 31-year-old Angelina's third adopted child, alongside five-year-old Maddox and Zahara, who is two.

Angelina Jolie's Fall From Sainthood

I can just see it now. As Angelina Jolie prepares for her next visit to a third world orphanage, she receives a call from her philanthropy publicist, who says that her digital photographer has just quit. “But I need someone to take pictures of me caring for the kids!” Jolie screams.

“Angelina, we can hire a new one. Better yet, I have a six megapixel digital camera. I can take pictures of you holding one of the kids. You should hold one of the Black ones since it will make you look more caring!”

“Well, we need to make sure that the kids look sick. If they aren’t sick, please poison their food!” Jolie goes on. Then, she calls in Brad to make sure that her other two adopted kids, Maddox and Zahara, are dressed for their photo ops. She dresses Maddox in ninja-type clothes, but chooses African safari clothes for Zahara. She then decides that Brad needs a moment of pleasure before they begin their journey. “I bet Jennifer could never do that!” she says in a whispery voice. Brad nods his head in agreement.

Does this sound like the “Saint Angelina” the world has come to embrace over the past few years? Perhaps not. But you know something is wrong in the “Saint Angelina” public relations department when even the ultra-liberal New York Times disses you. In an article titled “After All That Goodness, a Sudden Fall From Grace,” the New York Times discusses her snobby interview with Ryan Seacrest at the Golden Globes, where Angelina pretty much let Ryan know that she was too good for him. The article goes on to quote other news sources that are currently blasting the self appointed Mother of Legal Adoption. But did Angelina really ever deserve that title?

Apparently, St. Angelina’s adoption of Maddox from Cambodia was anything but legal: government officials were bribed; Maddox’s mother was paid a substantial amount of cash; and the American businesswoman who handled the adoption is now in prison. Worst of all, many parents hopeful of adopting a child from Cambodia had their hearts broken when the government banned all adoptions because of Angelina Jolie’s illegal activities. So why did the media look beyond these facts when turning Angelina into a saint?

The answer is simple: the media doesn’t care about facts; they are only interested in building up celebrities just so they can tear them down. St. Angelina, the Mother of Adoption, was an image that would sell. Jolie’s hookup with Brad Pitt made St. Angelina even more marketable, even if some accused her of stealing him away from Jennifer Aniston. But the image of St. Angelina isn’t selling as well, so it’s time for the media to tear her down. Of course, Angelina’s calling her newborn child Shiloh a “blob,” and blabbing to the press about how she wants to adopt legally (when she’s actually an adoption criminal) doesn’t help. The media looks for reasons to tear down a celebrity and Angelina has given them all the right ones.

There’s hope for Angelina Jolie. Once a celebrity gets torn down, the media likes to build them up
again: it’s called “the comeback.” But the celebrity has to give a good reason for the media to do this.
Going to third world orphanages and cuddling with kids in front of cameras isn’t going to help.
Angelina’s other fake philanthropy efforts, such as being a U.N. Ambassador, are going to make people
hate her even worse. It’s time to bring back "Slut Angelina" from the early part of the decade. At least
that image was fun and convincing.

Angelina Jolie & Brad Pitt Bond Leads Jennifer Aniston to Doctor?

Angelina Jolie opened up about her relationship with Brad Pitt more than ever in recent magazine interviews. The sultry actress described what certainly sounds like a couple falling in love on the set of Mr. and Mrs. Smith while Brad was still married to Jennifer Aniston. Those words, along with lots of other comments about her baby Shiloh and her criticism of Madonna has lead to a bit of a Jolie backlash in the entertainment media, but would they lead Jennifer Aniston to a doctor?

That's the hint from one story this week. The former 'Friends' star was snapped by a paparazzi photographer leaving a medical center on January 20 according to Us Weekly. The magazine will report in this week's issue that she was at the center for surgery. Us Weekly reports: In the early morning hours of January 20, one day after taping a guest spot on pal Courteney Cox's new series Dirt, Aniston's driver dropped her off at Kanodia’s office in Beverly Hills. The actress emerged four hours later, but instead of her usual golden glow, she sported fresh black-andblue bruises along her right eyebrow and across the tip of her nose and upper lip. *** Cue the rep™: Aniston’s rep confirms the operation. “Jennifer had a procedure done to correct a deviated septum that was incorrectly done over 12 years ago,” he tells Us Weekly. Now - why would the relationship of Angelina and Brad lead Jennifer to the doctor's visit? The item on the blog only gives this tease: Why are some sources pointing to Brad Pitt's relationship with Angelina Jolie as the reason Jen went under the knife? What has the Friends star said in the past about plastic surgery? What other major life changes has Jen made recently? Is Jen looking to reunite with Brad leaving Angie out is the cold? Certainly the magazine will dish in this week's issue.

Jilted Davos Claims It Dumped Angelina Jolie First

Hoping to keep their conference from devolving into a starfucker-riddled orgy of swag suites attended by people who sneer,"What's the best Third World microlending panel I've seen this year? Are you fucking kidding? I'm just here for the parties," organizers of this year's World Economic Forum in Davos are eschewing the participation of the Hollywood do-gooders whose attendance often overshadowed the substance of the 2006 event: Davos also says it is shunning Hollywood celebrities, even though they have lent this sober event a dash of sex appeal. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, who stopped moguls and ministers in their tracks last year, will not be here, leaving Bono, the Irish rock star who has assumed a statesman's mantle, to twinkle on his own. "We noticed there was undue publicity given to the attendance of those celebrities at the last meeting," [Davos organizer Klaus] Schwab said. "We have to be careful that we are not hijacked by the celebrity world." After being assured that the NY Times reporter's tape recorder had been switched off, Schwab sighed, then candidly offered, "Look, we tried to get Angelina, OK? But at the last minute, she decided she's saving New Orleans this year. Left us high and dry. I never thought I'd say this, but now I know how Jennifer Aniston felt when she found out Brad was banging her in his trailer on Mr. and Mrs. Smith. It hurts to be betrayed like that, it really, really does."

Angelina Jolie is tired of living out of a suitcase.

Angelina admits it has been draining traveling the world with her three children.

She is looking forward to putting down some roots with her partner Brad Pitt soon.

“Having three kids running around in hotel rooms, or from one rented house to the next, is not easy., she said.

“Somebody saw our messy luggage the other day, and I had to explain that we’ve been living out of the same four suitcases for four months!”

Angelina has always been keen for her adopted children, Cambodian-born Maddox and Ethiopian Zahara, to regularly visit their birth homes and has always said she “wants her children to be aware of other cultures”.

She said: “I always try to be careful to avoid dangerous situations.

“Sadly, we have to stay in five-star hotels when we have paparazzi following us. We did stay in a one-room shack in the middle of the Cambodian jungle because nobody else was there. But when you have kids, especially a six-month-old baby, you need clean water and salad for them.”
