Angelina Jolie to Adopt Seventh Child

Posted by Andru Edwards Categories: Celeb News, Celebrity Gossip, Rumors

I suppose that foreign children are nice holiday presents for the Pitt-Jolies—Salt starlet Angelina Jolie is reportedly set to adopt a baby from Syria.

The Oscar-winning actress, who already has three adopted children, as well as three biological ones, with partner Brad Pitt, has started the process to bring home a baby girl from the Asian country.

Brad, however, is said to not be keen on the idea, but an undeterred Angelina began the proceedings on her own. A source said, “He has made it clear that six children are more than he can handle. The idea of one more seemed ludicrous, but Angie is determined to complete her rainbow family.”

A spokesman for the Immigration and Naturalization Service in Washington D.C. confirmed that “only Angelina’s name was on the adoption papers.” Angelina adopted her eldest son Maddox - now eight - from Cambodia in 2001, while she was still married to second husband Billy Bob Thornton, but was legally his only parent.

After splitting from Billy, she went on to adopt Zahara from Ethiopia in 2005 and soon after getting together with Brad, he legally became the father of both children. The couple then had their first biological child, Shiloh, in May 2006 before adopting Pax - now five - from Vietnam in March 2007. They then became the proud parents of twins, Knox and Vivienne, who were born in July 2008.

Toni Collette is Pregnant

Posted by Shannon Bennett Categories: Celeb News, Celebrity Gossip

Excuse me?  How did we miss this?  Since when is a celebrity able to announce her own pregnancy?

We’re not saying this is a bad thing, and I’m sure Toni Collette is grateful not to have been photographed from three dozen angles with newspaper headlines speculating “Son or Sandwich?”  But still, where was Toni’s bump watch?  The incredibly talented star of films like Little Miss Sunshine and In Her Shoes may be unconventional, but surely a few magazines in this pregnancy-crazed post 9/11 universe should’ve been all over that story.

In any sense, on September 7th Toni announced at a performance of her band, Toni Colette and the Finish, that she was expecting.  Congratulations to Toni on what shall surely be a very talented child.
