Brad Pitt shot Angelina Jolie and the kids! For a W cover!

Alas, what we've all feared might happen, has happened.

Last week, Brad Pitt shot Angelina Jolie and all their children at Chateau Miraval.

Relax. By shot, I mean photographed. Seems Brad turned his lens on Angelina Jolie and their expanded family.

According to Fashion Week Daily, he picked up a camera and photographed the family at the Chateau Miraval in the south of France last week for the November cover of W magazine.

This will be their second W spread as a couple. Surely you recall their controversial "Domestic Bliss" photo spread (shot by photog Steven Klein) featuring Brad and Angelina pretending to be a married couple for the July 2005 issue.

Of course, that was back when they were just friends, and the photo shoot was supposed to be publicizing their movie "Mr. and Mrs. Smith.”

Instead, it telegraphed the very open splintering of Brad's marriage to Jennifer Aniston and his blossoming and very close relationship with Jolie.

It's worth noting that Angie gave Brad a Littman 45 Single camera for a recent birthday gift.

Wonder if this is the test drive?

I'm sure Maddox, Pax, Sahara, Shiloh and the adorable new Jolie-Pitts, Vivienne and Knox, will be in all the photos.

But let's hope Brad had a timer so he could slide into a few shots too.

I guess he's pimping his family for his xmas movie.

What an ass! I can't believe Angelina fell for that guy. She seems like such a great mom too. Oh well

Please make it stop! Jolie-Pit are so superficial and seeing them all over the media is like a dagger in my eye.

Soon the loonies will be here talking about the good deeds, but let me ask you one question. The money they received for pimping their twins; did People magazine donate in Jolie-Pitt's name or did it go to the Jolie-Pitt foundation? There is a huge difference.

[laurie]

I love them, They are great and donate so much money to cherity...does anyone else? NO...they are the greatest...Get over him and Jennifer, she was too dependant on him.

[Faye]

James - If you're going to post on a blog, then learn how to read. It was posted all over the web that the money for the twins pics went directly to the Jolie-Pitt foundation. Good for them. I'd rather see the money go to some NGO like the IRC or Doctors Without Borders instead of the pockets of celebrities like Jennifer Lopez or Tori Spelling.

[viewers]

It is a good idea that Brad should earn money by his brood 's photos rather than acting, this job is not suitable for him anymore, let the young to do the act.

W Magazine offered him a deal to do another photoshoot. He may or may not accept it. I hope he does reject it because the media will put their sleazy spin on it and create a firestorm of controversy surrounding it. This current story is just a rumor. I can write an entire book about this couple and how they are the target of an ongoing cycle of lying, manipulating, and deceiving that was created by a false accusation that created a messy misportrayal that ended up destroying them. It is a society full of superficial and easily manipulated people that continues to make this cycle thrive. Brad and Angelina do this to deflect paparazzi and media control. Instead of the press making millions off of unauthorized photos of their children, they do a couple of photoshoots where they know the money will go to a good cause instead of being wasted on sensationalism. The media created a situation where it was necessary for them to do this and then they turn around & attack them for it.
They are not pimping their kids, they are adapting to their negative circumstances. They don't do any more interviews or photoshoots than your average celebrities, in fact they do less than most of their peers. The media is always creates a negative hysteria around it and the public keeps responding to it.
The media has even distorted and added their fabrications to their own interviews to feed into their misportrayal.
They get more attention, which is negative and
destructive, because they are targets. If they never did any interviews or photoshoots at all, it would be in control of the press who is profitting by exploiting
and misportraying them.

All of you who jumped on the bandwagon against them should be deeply ashamed of yourself, you have no idea how corrupt, rotten, and foolish you are being, What is sick is how these people pretend to be operating on morality, when it is operating on a false premise; a scandal that is not even real. There is nothing superficial or artificial about them. In fact, the person that most of you are wrongly supporting is the fraudulent, conniving, and manipulative one.
She is the one who is thriving on calculated PR, a false image, lies,
misperceptions, tabloid coverage, and mooching off superior celebrities. The people who insult and hate them are the ones lacking in morals and mental strength; they believe every lie, fallacy, contradiction, and distortion about them. There is nothing hate-worthy about them. If people understood them for who they really are,
they would be greatly respected and admired; instead they are villified because of a piece of gossip and how it clashed with reality leading to a great vile misunderstanding. He is a man of such strong principles and ethics; he is not even capable of comitting the sin he was accused and convicted of. She is a reformed woman and is working hard to reform the world by humanitarianism.

I really cannot think of any other hollywood celebrity who uses their children as much as these two do. If Jennifer Lopez ever did this she would be mocked and torn down by the media in a horrible way for pimping out her children to get attention. OK they sold their pictures of the twins and Shiloh right after birth most celebrities except Johnny, Matt, Halle, and Ben do that now. But now these children need to live a life without being used to promote their parents movies. These are children and they did not ask to be put in magazines. Honestly I think that it is just not right. I realize that this is exciting for the fans but is that what someones children are for to make your fans get excited and buy magazines with your children on the cover? Brad and Angie are using their children to promote their image and that is a concern. It really is sad. Promote yourself Brad and Angie not your children! Oh and Liz do you really believe that when they shot the photo shot for W the first time they were just friends? Just wondering if that was a snide comment or you really believed it?

[SSS]

As for the job not being suitable anymore...are you kidding? Brad is a good actor and he will just improve with age and experience. The best of him is yet to come.The only people who think he is a bad actor are the idiots who wrongly believe he is a bad person because they chose to believe a lie about him. You also have no idea how that money is being distributed to help so many people; it was distributed to hospitals, orphanages, and research centers that need aid.

There are a million things to say about this. I am not going to go into a deep discussion about everything but I will discuss the first W shoot a little bit.

I do not understand why the author of this chose to use the word "instead "because they were just friends when they began that shoot. It was a creative and thematic photoshoot that was about publicizing Mr. and Mrs. Smith, which ended up backfiring big time because of course, the media chose to incoporate it within their misportrayal. He didn't realize how determined the media was in selling their false storyline because he did not know how he would easily get trapped in a web of deceit. They misportrayed his divorce
using the trashy gossip about Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Then the media kept misportraying them as being together before they actually got together because they knew they would get together eventually because of their obvious chemistry and compatibility. In fact, all of that gossip and escalating unfounded antagonism towards them just brought them closer together. It was actually an emotional conversation about that
led to their first kiss. What is crazy is how public opinion easily
strayed against him, he had a solid reputation for years. Most of the world had a fairly accurate idea of his personality, that he was a nice, likable grounded man with morals. That is what got labeled him the golden boy, not his looks or his career. People know how common it is for gossip to get started about co-stars. With Angelina as his co-star and with that reputation, it was inevitable, especially since there had been buzz about his marriage being on the rocks. The gossipmongers knew what they were doing.
Angelina has that temptress image which caused to her be linked to every co-star. Brad had dealt with on-set gossip about him and his leading lady many times before, it just never got out of control before and become official tabloid gossip fodder before. By the way, Angelina did not know Billy Bob Thornton was still with Laura Dern when she hooked up with him, he lied to her and said he was single. But that is a different story. Brad is also not the first actor to
be wrongfully accused of having an affair, date a co-star after a breakup, or become involved with an actress despite any previous rumors. It is also peculiar how the public has never reacted this way towards the dozens of celebrities who have actually committed infidelity. Hollywood wrongfully condones and glorifies this all of the time and yet they chose to destroy one of the few men who would never committ adultery, lie to the public, or engage in any kind of scandal.

What you described is how the shoot was misportrayed. It was not a personal photoshoot and it didn't
telegraph the breakup of his marriage or his relationship with Jolie which had not even begun yet. If he had known, that he and Jolie would become romantically involved only a week or so after that shoot, he would not have done it. He also understands what a huge mistake doing that shoot was. His "sweetheart" ex used that as part of her ammunition and acted like it was an act of malice against her when she already knew what the real idea behind the shoot was. She had nothing else to pin on him accept rumors.
He had behaved like a complete gentleman, so the only thing she could do was to use lies, distortions, and contradictions. That photoshoot was supposed to be a paradox of a Paul Newman-Joanne photoshoot from the sixties. It was about the facade of an unhappy marriage and leading a double life, which was a theme of Mr. and Mrs. Smith. It was also about the unrealistic ideals of happiness that our society places on marriage. If people had even bothered to examine the photos instead of just accepting how the media misportrayed it, they could easily see it was not directly about his personal life. Brad would never choose to display a new relationship ithat way. When had he ever done that in the past?
Why did the public just throw away any knowledge of his personality and treat him with a hostility and suspicion that no other actor has ever dealt with
before? Why were people so quick to assume and presume guilt with him? Mainly because of the 3 factors:
Our society is corrupt,
the media would take spin and lying to its worst level, and because of how his ex-wife chose to exploit this to increase her popularity and powerbase that she knew she would have eventually lost. Brad Pitt was the reason she was in the A-list in the first place. She did not have that great, beloved image before she married him. She knew Angelina was set to inherit her throne and she couldn't stand it.
She is not a victim.
It was very easy for her to take advantage of his messy situation and act like him meeting Angelina was their downfall when she knows it was her own personality that was the downfall. She never really loved him or had any intent to spend the rest of her life with him.
His romance with Angelina began unexpectedly 3 months after he and that fraud
annouced their split.
Their romance began a week or so after doing that photoshoot. That photospread was released after they had become involved, excaberating the misunderstanding and confusion. Then his ex threw him under the bus and he still has not recovered. He has tried to discuss his side of the story but the media has sabotaged that as well, lying to make it seemed like Brad & Angelina confessed to something they did not do.

As for the truth behind why that marriage fell apart, that is a different discussion. You don't have to be part of their inner circle to understand that. Any outside observer could see why , if they were not influenced by the media so much. They both showed signs of not being the perfect match early on.

I will not visit the site again. Please allow the truth to be fully posted. Please do not delete or edit both of my posts. It is important for the truth to be read even if I know it will be rejected by the majority.

[JENwasDUMPED!]

Faye...you are either a jealous hag or a closet case! Quit hatin on Brad Pitt...There's plenty of people like ME who still want to see Brad in movies, but I think the idea of him doing photography of Angie is DELISHIOUS as well. I bet he got some adorable shots of the kids, and some SEXY shots of Angie as she'd be more relaxed in his presence. EEEEE!! cant wait to buy a few copies of the magazine. I will support whatever the Jolie-Pitts do because they are the most interesting and caring couple in hollywood! Haters only reveal their jealousy & make Brad & Angie more notable and successful...it reveals how powerful and relevant they really are to the public post millenium... Just ask Roseanne Barr.

[JENwasDUMPED]

SSS...or Steven HUVANE...whatever your name is!...Why arent you up in arms when the papparrazzi are stalking out Maddox at pre-school, or harrassing Brad as he takes his kids to the playground?? I bet you arent complaining about the media pimping out Brad & Angies kids AND LIES about their lovelife to sell magazines,huh? Right! Brad and Angie can take photos of their kids and WITH their kids to satisfy their fans or to encourage others to adopt. Its THEIR right! NONE of anybody elses business...ESPECIALLY if they are not offended by the TABLOIDS who stake out their house and stalk them! HIPOCRITS!!! Let Brad and Angie do what they want with THEIR life!

[SSS]

I don't mean to be aggressive or demanding, but please post my second message,
is it vitally important.
You don't have to display this third post.
This post is just a reminder.
My first post was a rebuttal to Susan's post. Interesting, how they repeat the same garbage again despite
accurate explanations of the truth. Jennifer Lopez is a real homewrecker and a cheater, and yet she gets respect from Susan. Brad and Angelina are the ones who are constantly being torn down while the real corrupt celebs get away with it. They are not using their kids to promote their movies or an image. The media and his ex's followers are the ones who constantly promote a false image.
There is a rational explanation of Brad 's
unique and awful circumstances which forces him to do those photoshoots of his children. Other celebrities don't have the same situation with the press. And they were just friends when they did that first photoshoot, that is an important fact that the deeply manipulated public refuses to accept. The public sucks in every lie and rejects most of the facts because that lie about an illicit affair got effectively sold. My second post explains that first W shoot and gives a basic summary of the core of the truth. Please display the second message. Websites love to delete or edit messages that come from people who are not on Team Aniston.
Please don't display this third post. I promise this third post will be my final one.

[sensible]

Roseanne was right abt Jolie and Pitt...He is a retard and she is a man stealing wench....she's just having all those babies so he will be forced to stay with her
hollywood is retarded
only a few ppl there have half a brain

[sk]

Angelina has an old lady body with a giant pumpkin-head, and she's pretentious and stupid. Brad is a tool. They bore me, and they aren't anything to look at anymore, either!

[AThinkingMind]

I think the pictures will come out pretty nice. More of a family picture feel.

[mlee]

I see the group of I hate Brad and Jolie has settled here also, Amazing, these absolutely perfect people who set back and analyse and accuse. As far as the photos taken of any of the children, These couples don't shop around for a magazine, you haven't figured it out have you, all of these magazines place bids with the couple for the photos. Celebrities are badgered by these magazines, and remember the antic's of the crazy paps. The best solution they could come up with, sell the photos and give the money to charity. Apparently, you people do not remember, that prior to making the Mr. and Mrs. Smith Movie.. There was talk of a breakup being reported between the Pitt's, so soon we forget. One never knows what really goes on behind closed doors.. May well have been very loud and very unhappy times.. Jennifer may show a sweet passive face to the world, she may not have been america's little swetheart at home. I notice she doesn't stay very long with any one man, must be the men.. Right.

[mari]

I agree with Sensible.

[beep]

I think mlee is right. Why do we keep judging them. I believe in karma. If Angelina is a homewracker that people say she is and Brad Pitt is a cad, then disaster will strike them very soon. The boomerang they throw will returne and hit them without us having to judge them like that. Nature has a way of taking its own revange on the evildoers. And if the evil everyone is accuseing them of is true (homewracking and hypocrisy), then they are doomed to suffer the fruit of their evil doings. It never fails. So leave them alone already!

[Tee]

The entire world should boycott those two adulterers.

They are nasty for what they did to Jennifer Aniston, and I cannot ever pay to see anything they do at all and will not change my mind in the future.

They are a bad example for marriage and morality in American culture...

[Brown Eyes]

Wow, I'm amazed at these ignorant people who say Jennifer Aniston was a nobody till she got with Brad Pitt. Truth be told, Brad's career was stagnant when "Friends" was so popular that people like Brad, Julia Roberts, Bruce Willis, etc. were clamoring to get on that show. It was his relationship with Jen that put him back in the news and revived his career and earned him his spot as the sexiest man alive on People magazine. When Friends ended and Jen's career was no longer an asset to Brad, he dumped her. Brad the Cad moved on to someone whose career was hotter. He'll move on again eventually.
