I waffled back and forth about whether to post this because it’s so incredibly intrusive, but I figured I’ll write about it and let you decide whether to go see the pictures or not.
Angelina Jolie is most definitely still pregnant and there is photographic proof. After the whole ET debacle, many people were saying that Angie should “prove” that she hadn’t given birth yet by going out in public and letting herself be seen. As though she owes us photos to demonstrate that she’s still pregnant. I couldn’t believe the sense of entitlement so many people in the media had, as though she’s a piece of property to parade around.
Anyway, Angelina had said she planned to lay low after Cannes and she has kept her word to herself, enjoying private time with her family in the chateau in France. And while we all miss seeing her and the kids out and about, it’s a good thing for her to just be relaxing with her family in these last weeks before the twins arrive.
However, I guess some people are just desperate since In Touch magazine has now published photos of Angelina Jolie and her very pregnant belly with Zahara and Shiloh as they played outside on the weekend.
The whole purpose of renting this particular home was because of the incredible privacy and the only photos we were ever able to see were aerial shots. Clearly some paparazzi agency rented a freakin’ helicopter to take photos of Angelina Jolie on her own private property.
I’m really frustrated by this. Yes, it’s nice to see photos of any of the Jolie-Pitt family but I don’t like or condone being disrespectful at this level. It’s one thing to take their pictures out on the street. If Angie had strolled down to the front gates to wave at all the cameras, that would be fine. But she was inside the property and photographed from above. There’s something very disturbing about that.
I know celebrities are in the limelight but surely there’s a line where things go too far. Can you imagine not even being able to be in your own yard without worrying about cameras?
Anyway. Nothing can be done about it at this point. So Angelina is still very pregnant. I just would have preferred to believe that on my own without intrusive photos to prove a point.
What do you think? Let’s discuss this invasion of privacy!

I agree with all of the comments above. If they are at home, on their property, they should be left alone. I believe that when we hear that Brad and Angie’s family are in France we will know that the twins will be born soon. The longer she is carrying them the healther they will be, and I believe that is what all of us here want.

why should they tell us about the birth? its their privacy, its their lives. its actually nothing of our business. i was so happy for them having the time to relax without the press on their heels.
its a shame to see how some people are so obsessed that they lose respect of others privacy on such a level.

Then why did you even post the link to these photos? I find your comments disingenuous. Actions speak louder than words.

a leather jacket that AJ wore (supposedly) on Wanted is up for sale at eBay. Profits to go to charity:

cc – I never said I felt guilty. I didn’t take the photos, why would I personally feel guilty about them?
Robin – I linked to the photos, yes. I didn’t post them. I didn’t purchase the right to use them, I didn’t take them, and I don’t purchase the magazine. I can be frustrated by an invasion of privacy and still link out to a site that has the photos for people who may not have seen them so they can take part in a discussion. Linking to sites is a big part of the internet. If that’s what you call disingenuous then I really don’t know what to tell you.

Sorry Sherry, I was referring to Randi saying she felt slightly guilty about posting the photos.

Jeez, are they really from inside her private property? I was not aware of that. It seemed to me like they had taken it of them in front of there front door. They can sue, right?
I remember when the x went to court with Brad and won because of some topless pics that were taken in there private property. Anyways I hope they do because this is really to much, I can only imagine how violated she most feel.

I am writing here to admit something. Despite my maturity and intelligence, I have found myself quite the fan of brangelina and their brood. I LOVE the stories & fotos about them.
On top of surprising myself by my keen interest in the growing family, I have a history of strong distaste for that “lack of privacy” issue. (I’ve always said I would HATE to be famous and loose my anonymity).
So here I am on the other side of the fence: wishing, waiting, hoping for more fotos — on their private property or not — of the jolie-pitts. I am really into seeing a still pregnant Angelina after all the mystery around the birth of the twins.
That makes me an accessory to the invasion of privacy. This is a conflict that now resides in me and I am interested in the larger implications.

I never believed ET’s story anyway and I was very angry when I read something like “maybe angelina should show herself in public in order to put the rumours to rest”. Why SHOULD she do that? Does she has a duty to us, the public, to keep us informed of everything in her life? Is she the queen of england or the president of a state and has duties to her people? And even if it were, in my opinion, no matter the social status of a person, private life is private life. After all, that’s why it’s called “private”! And if she doesn’t announce the birth, so what? It’s nobody’s bussiness but her own and her family’s. Just because she is a public person (and I’ve noticed that it is a custom among cellebrities to anounce these kind of events) doesn’t mean that she has to share her life with the public. If she wants to do it she will do it because she knows that, apart from all the haters, there are people out there who care deeply about her and want to know that she is well and the babies are well.
Regarding the paps, a few days ago I was talking to some friends about this and I told them that if I had the power to decide I would forbid this job and with the greatest pleasure. Not that I want to contribute to the unemployment rate :P but they simply are worms, animals (and for me lady dy is the most vivd example, but this is another subject). Strict laws and interdictions won’t work. After all, they can reorientate to any other type of journalism:))
I don’t know if the photos were arranged or not, glad to see angie is ok and if I were her I would stay in that chateau until the babies are one year old and then go out to shopping with them:))))) this would be the greatest humilliation for the paps and I think that they would quit their jobs from their own initiative.
Good night.

I didn’t say anything about all the sarcastic comments you made towards me. All I said, was that she could have seen the helicopter and decided all on her own it was a good chance to show the world she was still preggo. Don’t get your knickers tied in a knot, people have different opinions, and if you go back a read the many interviews AJ has given she is very open and upfront, and she knows how the game is played and what is expected of her. Even if she thinks it is ridiculous.

Yes, she and Brad are very open about their views of the paps. They openly state that they don’t mind them following them. They just don’t want them hounding the kids. So, Angelina should stay inside her house. Let’s just give you that for the sake of reason. Then, what about her kids? Should they stay inside and never come out out of fear of helicopters? How is that right when these kids did nothing to deserve that? They have no control over who their parents are. The media is definitely a game. And Angie, Brad, and pretty much all of Hollywood play along. But I find it hard to believe that Maddox, Pax, Zahara, and Shiloh even know or play along with the Hollywood Media Game.

Has anyone heard that a UK magazine called Closer has posted that Angie gave birth to the twins today. It’s not a magazine from here, actually if you go to their website, the news is written in French but it’s on Dlisted then you click on Closer. Don’t know how true it is, but we’ll soon find out, I just want to know the sexes.
