Was anyone else disturbed by that video of Angelina and her kids? I guess I never really thought about how horrible it must to be followed everywhere by the paparazzi. All the flashbulbs, noise and people staring at you. It must be a hard life for the kids. It’s too bad that the paparazzi don’t keep their distance.

PSB- Actually, we do know. Jen herself stated that the marriage was “dead in the water” by the end of 2004. Also, it’s fairly obviously that Brad did NOT leave her for Angie. Remember, he and Jen broke up BEFORE Angelina was ever in the picture. No, the weren’t legally divorced when Brad met Angie, but they were seperated and Jen had filed for divorce in the spring of 2005 (I think, anyway. Someone please correct me if I’m wrong). Considering Brad and Angie didn’t get together until the SUMMER of 2005, I highly doubt Angelina was the reason for the split. And why do people always forget that Jen was sleeping with Vince long before the ink was dry on the divorce papers??????

Anyway, that’s getting way off topic here, and I don’t want to see the comments to this post closed because of that!

So, to get at least somewhat back on topic….Not to be mean, but I think Ana hit the nail on the head. I don’t neccesarily agree that people “don’t care” about Mad, Z, and Pax, BUT I do think that, to some people at least, Shi seems more important somehow because she is Angie and Brad’s biological child. Mind you, I’m not just talking about the people here on CBB (and by that I mean us commenters, not the staff!). I get the feeling that the reason why, when the tabloids are constantly reporting that Brad and Angie are breaking up they make sure to include something like: “Will Brad get Shiloh?” or “Brad’s leaving Angie…and taking Shiloh!” is because, unfourtantely, people are more interested in Shi than the other kids.

Not to harp on the adultery thing, but didn’t Jennifer herself say that Brad didn’t physically cheat on her until after they separated? Obviously he had feelings for Angie, but if what Jennifer says is true, Brad did try to honor his vows in some way—though he clearly left Jennifer for Angelina. Just saying, we all have no idea what transpired when – the only thing that is sure is that Brad/Angie got the hots for each other during the filming of their movie. Not condoning adultery, but we have no idea if this marriage was on it’s last legs or not before he met Angie.

Oh.

I didn’t realise it was adultery when the couple in question were seperated and divorce papers were filed. *shrug*

And if we follow your view on adultery, you do realise that Jen Aniston is also guilty of it as well? She was sleeping with Vince Vaughan by the summer of 05, just 2 months after we first saw Brad and Angie together.

Gorgeous pictures though!

Amanda- even though it happens a lot, some people might still consider adultery “un-ethical”. Brad and Angelina did become a couple while Brad was married to Jennifer Aniston (unbeknownst to Jennifer). Angelina knew that (and I’m pretty sure Brad knew that as well )
As far as being “intrigued” – that was in reference to “Brangelina”, not Shiloh’s absences.

Maya, just curious, I’m not trying to pick a fight but….

Whay are you ‘intrigued’ as to why Shiloh was missing during this particular excursion.

What was so ‘un-ethical’ about how Brad and Angie came together?

Hey Maya,
Call the Child Protection Service. Tell them to take away Shiloh, and give her to you. If you think Angie is abusing her, call them. Let’s waste the taxpayers money. FYI Chris O’Donnell wife is expecting their fifth child. I know that must really upset you do you think Chris takes all his kids to the grocery store with him. You one crazy racist B.

Of course you can voice your opinions…it is America afterall just as you stated. However keep in mind that the right also extends to others as well, whether they agree or disagree with your opinions.

This is just so ridiculous. We live in America and people allowed voice their views. Nobody was saying that Angelina and Brad are “bad parents”, we were just pointing out that Shiloh has been conspicuously missing in their last few family shots. Why are people taking this so personally? Angelina and Brad are no angels – they came together under what some people might not consider the most ethical of circumstances. Mind you that the fascination with Angelina and her adoptive children grew exponentially only after she and Brad became a couple. Now I’m surely not one to judge, but I certainly am intrigued. Sarah – now I totally understand your reservations about posting comments on this family, or for that matter posting any comments that voice one’s opinions. Geez!

Hey anonymous, according to some people only the biological child matters. They don’t care about the adopted children. So of course they’re going to bitch and complain about Angie’s love towards her kids whom she repeated stated that she loves all equally.
