To put it a little bit better…I don’t think the J-Ps will be able to live ANYWHERE full-time until both Angie and Brad stop making movies altogether.

jackie- Sorry, I should have been clearer. What I meant is that they obviously love NOLA and do spend a good amount of time there each year (for example, I believe Brad mentioned a few months back that they were going to go there for Easter, and I they were there last November as well). What I meant to say is that I don’t see them selling that house or not spending time there anymore.

However, I suppose they could still have France as their primary homebase and still keep the NOLA house and spend time there occasionally (come to think of it, Brad will HAVE to spend time there regardless of if they move to France, due to the Make It Right Project).

Anyway, I don’t really see them settling down anytime soon, since Brad is still making movies and Angie has said she plans to make about one a year. Obviously they need to travel to different locations for films. Also, I don’t think they’ll ever lose their love of traveling and of doing humantarian work in foregin countries. :)

I don’t understand why they would pic France, is it because of the tougher pap laws? A lot of famous people seem to live there.

Nola is not their home base right now their in the states but you don’t see them living in New Orleans,it’s a place they love and they also wanted to support that community by purchasing a home as well as the make it right project.Seriously do you really see them living there full time and raising there children I really don’t see because whenever they step out of their house the paps are right there waiting its not enough privacy.

As for them moving to France I honestly beleive this is where they are going to settle down,and I know I read it in something legit about Brad’s comment but we will just have to wait and see.

jackie- I’ve heard all that, too. I’m a bit surprised, however, that the J-Ps were able to buy a working vineyard, especially since I read somewhere around the time of the twins’ birth that the Chateau was not up for sale (this was to help debunk the rumor that the J-Ps were purchasing the Chateau at the time). However, perhaps they are just buying the main house and the vineyard will continue under whoever currently owns it.

Also, I’m not so sure if that interview with Brad saying France is going to be their homebase is legit. It also doesn’t make sense to me that France would be their homebase as I can’t see them giving up their NOLA homebase. I haven’t seen it in PEOPLE or any other reliable news source.

All of that said, even if France DOES become their homebase, I don’t think we’re going to see even less than the J-Ps as we do now. After all, Brad is still doing movies, and Angie has said she plans to do one movie a year. So obviously they will still be traveling for movie shoots, award shows, movie promotion, etc. :)

Oh, and as for your comment about Shiloh, Jackie…Many of us, myself included, think that Shi was partially hiding behind her silkie in those pictures because the sun was in her eyes (in at least one of the pictures, even Angie is squinting a bit) and/or it was her naptime and thus she was a bit tired and/or cranky rather than because she didn’t want her picture taken (especially since she hasn’t appeared to be afraid of the paps in the past).

Kim I remember reading somewhere where Brad said he was going to give the family a break because he has been dragging them from continent to continent,he also said France would be there Home base because it is a nice place and also the children have a lot of room to run around.I can’t remember where I read it but it was when he was doing promotion for Ben Button at that time is when I also read that yes they lease the mansion for 3 years they moved in everybody gelled and they have decided to purchase it when the lease is up.

Maybe someone can find the source for me but it’s out there,they have plunked down 12million to renovate it starting this January remember when Brad went to France by himself just before Easter and the French Media said he came to see how the Reno was going thats why they have not gone back to their house because it’s not finished.

Sherry, I’m a little disappointed that there was not a picture of fireworks behind the parliament building on July 1 post. Happy 4th of July to our nabours to the South.

‘Singing brings me close to people’

By Tahnee Hopman

……That is the second passion of this young singer — to help children in need. ” I strongly believe that the real value of having talent lies in sharing that talent and using it to reach out to people who need help,” says KAROSHEE who has great admiration for celebrities like Angelina Jolie who have used their talent and influence to help make a difference in the world.
