I think that saying "I prefer my adopted kid(s) over my bio one(s) because adopted are survivors and bio are privileged" is understandable and has a certain logic to it. But it also displays a big gap in maternal/parental instinct. Your kids are your kids.

When I heard that she and her husband were expecting twins, I assumed it was by FedEx from Kazakhstan. My bad.

Well, I think that yeah, they were survivors but they did get adopted by her, which in essence makes them automatically privileged by default.

^^^ LOL exactly...

I do understand what she means though and I also don't think she was trying to be negative in any way when she called little infant Shiloh a blob. I think it's a quirky, cute way of describing the squishy little crying creatures with no complex thinking yet that we call babies! :D

Again she was not the one who called Shiloh a blob it was the reporter.


Perhaps Angelina made hand gestures trying to explain how she felt and the reporter suggested Blob.

But if Brad was 100% happy, hje would have never strayed.
You have to admit, Ange is not the only one guilty here.

I love how the woman is always the one blamed. The man makes the decision too. If he was completely in love with Jennifer Aniston, he would have not left her.

If you read my post you will notice that I said he is WAY more morally corrupt. She did a bad thing, he did a tremendously horrible thing.

If they would have fell in love, then he divorced Jennifer Aniston before starting something with her, then I wouldn't feel they had done anything wrong. But the tabloid pics and rumors started well before he left his wife and it's kind of hard to believe that they "just happened' to fall in love after he left his marriage and the media having it right was just a coincidence.

I believe she is not completely innocent, especially when considering her past history with married men. And YES, before someone jumps me, the married men are MUCH more dispicable than the women who sleep with them, but the women are horrible as well, the men just happen to be horrible to the 10th power.

I think she made a comment at one point about wanting a 'rainbow' family, and that was a little weird.

But I read her humanitarian diary-book thing. It's very obvious that she witnessed some of the worst places in the world, and saw all this tragedy, and it affected her. Somehow the adoptions were an outflow of that reaction, I think.

And she never really thought she'd have biological children. She said in interviews in her early twenties that she could cry on screen when she thought of how 'she'd never be a mother'. (I used to read her interviews Gia-Girl, Interrupted days, because she was my idol as a teenager...so crazy and outspoken...she's very candid, for a celebrity, IMO).

So I say good for them and their family, and who really knows their situation. She did adopt her first kid when she was barely older than I am, and basically on her own in Africa. I can't imagine what that must have been like. I don't think any of those children will want for love. I had a nomadic childhood with my parents gone lots of the time because of the military (both of them), and I never felt abandoned or uprooted. You just have a different perspective.

I'm not "jumping" on you. My point is that people are always blaming the woman. (And yes, I see that you blame both parties here)

In an ideal situation, they would have met after the divorce but life isnt always perfect and people may very well BE in a relationship (unhappy albeit) and find the person they want to be with. Brad and Jen were obviously not happy with each other and unfortunately he and Angelina met WHILE he was with Jen. Shit happens.

It sucks for Jennifer Aniston though.

She's always pregnant.

She's always pregnant.

I wouldn't say two pregnancies over three years counts as "always".

But the "rainbow family" thing isn't all that novel among celebs, actually. Josephine Baker adopted 12 or so kids from around the world. Mia Farrow is about there with the number of kids she's adopted, many of them from Asia.

Among them Soon-Yi...

I exaggerate. It just seems like there's no other news about her than child-related. Sweet, but vanilla.
