Brangelina's French Summer

Power couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie had a fun-filled weekend in France, starting with a helicopter ride on Saturday with 3-year-old daughter Zahara. Rumors are circulating that Angie will give birth to her fifth child while in France.

On Sunday, the entire Jolie-Pitt brood spent the day on a rocky beach near Bono's home in the South of France. The Jolie-Pitts were accompanied by U2 guitarist David Howell Evans, known as "The Edge," who took the kids to play by the water, while Angie and Brad rested nearby. "They're doing everything you and I might be doing," a source tells People, "eating, taking naps and swimming in the pool."

The expectant parents and their four children are staying in an historic St. Jean Cap Ferrat villa owned by Microsoft co-founder Paul Allen, just 15 minutes from Bono's home. They are spending the summer in France, with Jolie scheduled to walk the red carpet at Cannes Film Festival for her two films, "Kung Fu Panda" and "The Changeling."

Brangelina Makes 'Time' Hot List


0313brangelina.jpg

Actor/do-gooders Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie wield quite a bit of international influence - and they've now been ranked at 21 on "Time" magazine's 100 Most Influential list for 2008!

Angelina has been the UN's Goodwill Ambassador since 2001, while Brad has been active in a number of charities and in the rebuilding of New Orleans. Buddy George Clooney says of the couple, "It is one thing to talk about the problems of the world and quite another to actually try to change things."

George cited Brad and Angie's donation of $1 million to victims in Darfur, a cause very close to Clooney's heart. It's been reported that in 2006 Jolie and Pitt donated an astounding $8 million to numerous charities, including the Namibia Red Cross Action Program (Shiloh was born in Namibia) and $100K to the Daniel Pearl Foundation (Jolie starred in the film about his widow, Marianne).

Jolie is expecting her fifth child. The couple has two sons, Maddox, 6, Pax, 4, and daughters, Zahara, 3, and Shiloh, 1. The brood is spending the summer in France, where Brad and Angie are expected to attend the Cannes Film Festival.

Did Brad and Angie Punk the World?


This is really the pits! Angelina Jolie was spotted with Brad Pitt in Texas yesterday -- without a wedding ring. That's no surprise for "Extra" -- as we reported yesterday, the two did not have a surprise New Orleans wedding this past weekend.

As to how the mother of all rumors got started, a new report says a reporter may have seen lavish wedding preparations underway in the Big Easy and jumped the gun. But was the whole ceremony an early April Fools' joke helped along by none other than "Punk'd" star Ashton Kutcher?

Ashton's new show, "Pop Fiction," gives celebs the last laugh by punking paparazzi and news outlets with fake stories -- and it's now believed that the gossip bomb of a Brangelina wedding was all a hoax.

Pics of Brangelina's Babe: Priceless


How much would pictures of Angelina Jolie's baby (or babies) sell for? Try a whopping $10 million! That's the estimate of The New York Post today after speculation about how much magazines might pay for pics of the next perfect tots.

"It's become big business now," National Enquirer Executive Editor Barry Levine told the Post. "It's outrageous. They've gotten very sophisticated. The rights are bought up now even before the celeb enters the hospital. They hire extra security so it's impossible to obtain a photo illegally."

American Media Editorial Director Bonnie Fuller said, "If J.Lo really did get $6 million, then I think Angelina can now command $8 million," adding that magazines look at massive payouts "as a long-term investment."

The first pics of baby Shiloh, born in 2006, reportedly netted $4 million. Pitt and Jolie gave over $8 million to charity last year.

Brangelina & Co. Head for France


Au revoir, America! After living mostly in New Orleans for the past year, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are now packing up their international family and moving to France, according to Us Weekly. The globetrotting brood has reportedly made an offer on an 850-year-old home in the Provence region -- for a whopping $20 million – and it has plenty of room for more kids.

Angie has ties to France – her late mother, Marcheline, was French Canadian. Now it seems that Jolie will consider giving birth to her next picture-perfect child there sometime this summer. She also spent time in the City of Lights when she was pregnant with Shiloh, now almost two -- but gave birth in Namibia, where they later donated a substantial sum to the hospital.

Angelina Rocks Aid for Iraqis


U.N. Goodwill Ambassador Angelina Jolie just released a heart-wrenching statement to the Washington Post on the current status of the United Nations and the Iraqi government. Millions of Iraqi people have been driven from their homes, and the actress says it is our moral duty to provide aid.

Jolie says that up until last week, the crisis had not improved since she first visited Iraq six months ago. After a meeting between the U.N. and the Iraqi leadership, conditions have finally begun to improve, and humanitarian efforts are beginning to have an impact.

Angie released the following statement to the Post:

"The request is familiar to American ears: 'Bring them home.'

"But in Iraq, where I've just met with American and Iraqi leaders, the phrase carries a different meaning. It does not refer to the departure of U.S. troops, but to the return of the millions of innocent Iraqis who have been driven out of their homes and, in many cases, out of the country.

Angelina Flies to Jordan


Angelina Jolie isn't letting a possible pregnancy stop her from globetrotting.

The U.N. Goodwill Ambassador hopped a flight to the Middle Eastern country of Jordan, reports X17online.com. Photographers weren't able to get a glimpse of a baby bump, though: Angie carefully hid her bod under a black trenchcoat.

Angelina, 32, was last in Jordan in 2004 for the Arab Children's Congress.

Angelina Steps Out in Loose-Fitting Clothes - Again

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie wowed the crowd at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival this weekend, where Angie received the "Performance of the Year" award for "A Mighty Heart."

Looking every bit the Hollywood supercouple, Angelina hid her famous figure behind a black blouse and loose-fitting, floor-length skirt.

But while she wasn't talking about the hotly-rumored baby bump, the mom-of-four definitely had babies on the brain.

"We woke up with someone peeing in the bed and that makes all this very normal," Angie joked with The Associated Press. "It makes it all very secondary to what's important."

Man Arrested Outside Brad's Home


A man has been arrested outside Brad Pitt's L.A. home.

The man, who identified himself as a freelance reporter, was arrested yesterday for investigation of trespassing and taken into custody.

The man apparently pulled his car into Brad's driveway and asked the housekeeper which house was Brad's. Alarmed, the housekeeper called police. It will be up to the housekeeper to decide whether to press charges.

Neither Brad nor Angelina Jolie were home at the time.

Brad and Angelina Do McDonald's for Christmas


While most people were dining on lavish meals on Christmas day, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie opted for something simpler: McDonald's.

The couple and their kids Maddox, Pax, Zahara and Shiloh were spotted driving through the fast-food chain in New Orleans and grabbing Happy Meals to go.

The next day, the clan went to see the family-friendly flick "The Water Horse," though little Shiloh was left at home. On the way home, the group reportedly ate at KFC.

Is Brad and Angelina's Lifestyle Hurting the Kids?


Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are notorious for never living in one place for long, but are their constant moves actually hurting the kids?

One social worker thinks so!

Brad and Angie Say Goodbye to the Big Apple


“Extra” spotted Angelina Jolie with son Maddox leaving the elite Lycée Français school in New York, with Mad carrying what appeared to be a present from his classmates.

Was it a farewell gift?

Yes! The world’s most famous family is reportedly packing their bags and leaving New York City, and Maddox's classmates gave him a memory book to take with him.

Brad Pitt has just finished filming his latest movie there, and now the family is reportedly ready to leave. The couple and their four kids – Maddox, Pax, Zahara and Shiloh – have homes in Los Angeles and New Orleans.

Meanwhile, does Angelina have a bone to pick with Brad’s famous pal George Clooney?

That’s the rumor after she ditched the Big Apple premiere of George’s new thriller, “Michael Clayton.”

Though Brad was on hand to support the drama last month, Angelina was nowhere to be seen. A new report claims that she looks down on George for his wild ways and fears he could distract Brad from his duties as a father.
