Video: Uma Thurman’s Overseas Schweppes Commercial Is Weird as Hell
We don’t know what to make of this French ginger ale commercial starring Uma Thurman except to say that a bottle of Schweppes is a far cry from a six-dollar milkshake. Who’s with me? More »
Video: Horrifying French Orangina Ads Think Furries Are Sexy
Good morning! We think you should start you week off with this video of sexy animals who think Orangina is a toiletry. When we say sexy animals we mean deer with nice asses hair and horses in bras. The panda bear is completely naked! And she seems to be doing something most unsavory with that bottle of pop.

France officially bans burqa – France’s controversial move to ban burqas and veils that fully cover the face has officially been passed into law. It’s estimated several hundred Muslim women living in France will be affected by the law, which will offer them a “re-education” program if they continue to wear the garments. (via Illume)
Gallery: Candy Across the Globe
It’s 3:30 on a Wednesday, and we feel like we’re in the middle of one of those 5-hour Energy commercials. But we don’t want to drink any Red Bull extract or go for a run: We want to wake up the old-fashioned way…with lots and lots of sugar. You know, even looking at these photos of candy from all over the world is putting us into a diabetic coma, so maybe we better quit while we’re ahead…. More »
Video: The French Make Better Flashmobbers Than Us
Dammit, just because we had Improv Everywhere on our side, we got cocky about America’s place as the 1st world super power at blitzkrieg-ing innocent bystanders who are just trying to get to work without being held up by a production from Glee. But in our smugness, we forgot about the French. They created miming, for god’s sake, which is the original form of annoying people with your kooky “street art.” More »

Brad Pitt returns to L.A. after quick visit to France
The other day, Brad Pitt was spotted flying into Los Angeles from Nice, France after a short visit across the ocean. Once Brad was stateside he had to be escorted by police and security to his car just to avoid a mob scene!
Although there’s no official word as to what he was doing overseas, the last time that Brad went to France by himself for a few days it was evidently to check on Miraval. Shortly after his… More »
Angelina Jolie goes shopping with Zahara and Shiloh
Over the weekend, Angelina Jolie took Zahara and Shiloh to a supermarket for a bit of shopping. Both the girls are getting so ridiculously big, I can’t believe how fast they’re growing up!
In their trademark form, everyone stuck to their “uniform” so to speak with Angelina wearing black pants and a black tank top (and looking fabulous of course!), Zahara dressed up in a pretty purple dress, and Shiloh in her tomboy favorites, wearing a hat and a tie…. More »
Angelina Jolie takes Maddox shopping
I guess that Maddox Jolie-Pitt missed his mom while he was in New York City because Angelina Jolie took Madd shopping today in Brignoles, France.
Maddox must have been well-behaved in the store because Angie bought him a toy dart gun while they were there!
Continuing to be an incredibly gracious person, Angelina stopped to sign some autographs for fans in the parking lot, something she certainly doesn’t have to do since she was with her son, but she… More »

Meanwhile the kids look fantastic. I love Pax’s shirt and Zahara’s big purple princess-esque skirt. Shiloh looks all dressed up in a costume complete with sword. There’s… More »
Angelina Jolie and Shiloh Jolie-Pitt go shopping!
Yesterday, Angelina Jolie and Shiloh Jolie-Pitt headed out to Ajaccio, France to do some shopping. While they were there, Shiloh picked out a toy dog. Meanwhile, Angelina was looking as amazing as always, wearing an all-black ensemble. Check out the photos!
I love seeing them in France, it’s so obvious that they’re relaxed out there. I know sometimes American celebrities get criticized for wanting to live in other countries (Gwyneth Paltrow is relentlessly and ruthlessly attacked… More »
Photos of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie buying gerbils in France
The other day I posted a link to some photos of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie out with Maddox and Pax when they bought their gerbils down in the South of France. Now I know why the page in question no longer existed.
The photos were exclusive but now they’ve been released so I can share them with you directly right here – I know that many of you were disappointed because the Jolie-Pitt photos had disappeared before you even… More »

French article also claims Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are in France
An article in the local Nice, France newspaper is also claiming that Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, and the kids are at Miraval now.
There are still no photos of Brad and Angelina in France, but the article says that they left Los Angeles on Sunday. Until we get further confirmation there’s no way to know if it’s still a rumor being recycled, but I’m genuinely hoping that they are indeed in France because I know how much they enjoy it… More »
Sherlock Holmes added to the neverending Brad Pitt rumor mill
Sometimes I wonder how rumors get started. It’s easy for them to spread – this is the Internet age, stuff spreads like wildfire around here – but I scratch my head and wonder how someone starts them in the first place. The latest piece of gossip is that Brad Pitt is heading to London to film additional footage for Sherlock Holmes. Supposedly he was meant to be filming a part they created at the last minute for… More »
Brad Pitt swings in and out of France on his way home
Proving himself to be a successful multi-tasker, Brad Pitt was seen at the Marseille airport in France on his way back to Los Angeles from Berlin. It seems that while he was over in Europe anyway, Brad figured it was a good opportunity to check in on Chateau Miraval, saving himself a trip later on.
Earlier reports a few months back said that there were some renovations going on at Miraval, and speculation was that the Jolie-Pitt family wanted to… More »
