Angelina Jolie's very public private moment

TiaoZao Thu, Apr 9, 2009 at 04:14 AM EST

It was my pleasure to visit your Website. I am also very Website you enjoy the article.And I also have the feeling that it was really a pity that we didn’t meet each other earlier. Because the kindness and warmth in your Website can make me completely relaxed and happy. I hope that you will visit my blog too to see if you can have the same feeling.http://www.buynikeshoes.com

I have a question for y'all: Is Jolie a richer version of the 8-baby mother, whon wants to ressmble her? ;-)

Narcissists are by nature contradicting themselves all the time - they say they are private and expose themselves, they say they are pacifists and make war movies, they are family oriented but cheat....

Her lips look like a cartoon character in that breasfeeding picture LMAO.

Monique Thu, Nov 13, 2008 at 03:30 PM EST

I hate to sound like a grinch but are we discussing the same chick that knowingly had an affair with another woman's husband? And now flaunts their relationship as if it is perfectly acceptable? I question her character but I have to admit she makes it hard with all the great humanitarian work she does.

Jenn Wed, Nov 12, 2008 at 07:53 PM EST

I bought this magazine, and the 'private' photo's aren't so private, and personal. I'm not sure about you, but when we take private pics of my family, we don't need hairdressers, stylists... etc etc.. the mag credits a few people for these things... soooo...

catherine Fri, Nov 7, 2008 at 12:32 AM EST

Jolie and Pitt are just the favor of the month and as long as the attention last, they will continue to milk the attention for as long as it last.

jenn Sun, Nov 2, 2008 at 03:06 PM EST

i'm not sure what is wrong with you guys.. you act like you know them personally.. it's beautiful.. we see women with babies all the time, breast feeding sometimes in public.. i don't think, i know that this is nothing to talk about. Angelina jolie is beautiful and she seems like a marvelous mother. They gave their money to charity.. It would be difficult for me to give 14 million away like that. I say right on. I admire the both of them. They have followed and achieved their dreams, and they rock. don't hate them because you are just average.

Lori Thu, Oct 23, 2008 at 08:56 AM EST

I admire Angie's moxie...She and Brad live like they want to, not like we want them to. We've seen more boob on the red carpet -no big deal

Elizabeth Wed, Oct 22, 2008 at 12:14 AM EST

I think there is nothing wrong with the magazine cover of Angelina Jolie. There is NO NEED TO BE SO CRITICAL OF OTHERS just because you are jealous or envious of people. She is not doing anything harmful to others, right? So why are there so much angry words here?

emily Mon, Oct 20, 2008 at 06:15 PM EST

i don't think angelina jolie is very attractive, but i do like her. she's a nice woman. as for the picture, i see no big deal with it.

nl Mon, Oct 20, 2008 at 05:58 PM EST

This is dumb. It has nothing to do with how natural breast feeding is. NOTHING. It has EVERYTHING to do with the idiotic lengths this pair will go to get attention. There's not even a point here made here, since we're not back in the '70s! They just want publicity for everything they do. And I do mean EVERYTHING. As if there's extra points for parenting (parenting on the fly with multiple nannies and lots of airbrush!).

Face it, who among us doesn't respect and admire celebs more who distinguish between what's public and what is personal? Something simply being private, doesn't make it shameful. But that's how opportunists would like it to play.

Someone else said it best, "Without publicity Brad and Angelina don't exist.

unknown Fri, Oct 17, 2008 at 04:37 AM EST

to PAM- get a life! if people want to think sordid things well then thats uptp them! as for the burkas? are u f*cking kidding me? id rather burn my self! u stick to your views and dont try and influence others! than race isnt the most favoured around the world im afraid! its the most hated!

Nancy Thu, Oct 16, 2008 at 04:31 PM EST

Some of these people need to get a life. Don't worry about what others do and don't do. Worry about yourself. If you don't like to see others feeding their child in public then stay home!

Colleen Meyer Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 02:06 PM EST

Breast Feeding is a natural and beautiful thing. What I don't get is Brad and Angelina exploiting their children to raise money for charity. I think they make enough money to donate to charity. They cry for privacy but use the media when it suits their purpose.

veno Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 01:59 PM EST

IMAGINE ALL THE PEOPLE LIVING LIFE IN PEACE,YOU MAY SAY WE ARE DREAMERS,BUT WE'RE NOT THE ONLY ONE. SOME DAY YOU CAN JOIN US AND THE WORLD WILL BE AS ONE. IMAGINE NO RELIGIONS,AND NO COUNTRIES,NOTHING TO KILL AND DIE FOR, IMAGINE NO POSSESSIONS,SHARING ALL THE WORLD,I WONDER IF YOU CAN, IMAGINE LIVING A BROTHERHOOD OF MAN, IMAGINE ,PEACE,COMPASSION,CARING,LOVE,WHAT A PLACE THE WORLD WOULD BE ,AND FOR THE FUTURE LIFE,CHILDREN, ANIMALS, PLANTS, ENVIRONMENT. ITS POSSILBLE, ITS WITHIN EACH OF US AND ALL OF US INDIVIDUALLY AND COLLECTIVELY,ALL WE HAVE TO DO IS LIVE IT EACH MOMENT, AND IF SLIP,START OVER AND OVER AGAIN IF NECESSARY BUT ,LETS GIVE PEACE A CHANCE.

Pam Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 12:43 PM EST

To Christine..Women are to wear Burkas to prevent them from flaunting their bodies. Some would call it a type of repression. I wouldn't. If breasts are not sexual why do women advertise (bring to public notice)so much, magazines, porn, movies with nudity? Do you really think the guys are saying, what a pretty face?...Thinking not!....No one can be that naive' in this day and age. Just because a baby is attached to the breast doesn't make it appropriate behavior. On with the Burkas!

BklynGirl Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 11:34 AM EST

I don't think it's bad that she is breast feeding, but I feel like Brad & Angie use/exploit their children when they show these photos. It's great that they donate the money to charity and claim to want to be in control of the pictures, but using their children to get there just seems hypocritical to me. I also question the timing of these intimate & beautiful pictures coming out so close to Angie's movie opening.

unknown Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 09:40 AM EST

to cowboy-you mean he moved onto a women who is a hussy and hops from man to man- yes you go Brad great move!

Jessica Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 09:39 AM EST

The link is out there now and on W magazine's website for the whole article and the other pictures, and Angelina says in the interview that Brad becoming a true father to Maddox and Z is what inspired her and changed her mind about getting pregnant. But I can't remember if she said he had actually adopted them when she changed her mind or they had decided he would, but if you think back, he adopted them in December 2005. I remember the headlines. And she was pregnant in Sept 2005. So she's contradicting herself unless they had decided or something long before, I guess.

Tressie Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 09:07 AM EST

I would much rather that my little girls see a mother breastfeeding on a magazine cover, then some media "flavor of the month" with barely any clothes on. And besides, a person decides what they want to be private. If this is a moment they want to share, I think it's sweet. Its not a sex tape after all.

Christine Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 08:52 AM EST

To: Lynda

You don't exactly know what my views are. I am not one of the ones on this site preaching the bible or that breastfeeding should be thrown in people's faces. I do think that Americans are way too uptight about seeing an occasional, partially exposed breast. I have lived and travelled other parts of the world (conservative, religious countries) where women breastfeed publicly. In these same places they can be beaten for wearing pants or a miniskirt. My point is, the breast is seen as nothing more than a food source - just as the teats or udders of a cow. I am also not advocating the Jolie-Pitt's way of life because it is not my place to judge them. I just think it is ridiculous for mothers to have to stress about feeding their children in public and for other women to worry about their husbands seeing another woman's breast in such a context.

MEP Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 08:08 AM EST

Good Idea... regardless of the content of the photos, actors/actresses providing the "supply" to meet the "demand" returns some control to the couple. And if magazines are buying the pics at competitive prices, well, that means less money available for the "photo chasers". Which may in turn restore some privacy to the evermore "popular ones".

Lynda Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 07:52 AM EST

First of all you know Christine you might want to remember not all people share your views . That does not make them wrong or right. I personally dont think that breast feeding needs to be a public open air sport. I have almost 16 year old that I don't think needs to see that. Also I don't think other men or children need to see that. It has become a issue because some people are going to do exactly what they know will cause a reaction. That has always been Jolies thing and still is. Keep it yourself and do it in private .

nap Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 07:50 AM EST

Why is it when a mother breastfeeds in public, its something horrible. But when a woman shows her boob because she is to drunk it’s fabulous. Lets be honest the breast is not really being shown and she is doing nothing wrong. I think that if they want to go public with their kids, they should be the ones in control of what gets publish.

Christine Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 07:33 AM EST

TO: AmerciansareDUMB

An intelligent person would not generalize to an entire group of people. ALL American women are not against breastfeeding - far from it. For those of you who are going to argue about intelligence through your writing - could you please learn how to spell? Also, let's try to behave like adults, not name-calling school children.

Christine Wed, Oct 15, 2008 at 07:30 AM EST

To: Pam

Maybe we should all wear burkas while we're breastfeeding. BTW, anyone who sees something sexual when viewing an exposed breast and nursing baby has a problem.

Lugo390 Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 11:57 PM EST

To Cowboy Barker:
Stupid people get what they deserve that's why you are in the mess your in. You should have kept your pants zipped. As for Brad, he was smart enough to get rid of that self-absorbed, 3rd class movie star Jennifer Aniston and move on up to a woman that is as beautiful in as she is out.

tinacat Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 11:17 PM EST

I read as much as I could stomach ...People need to put things in perspective..I surely have more respect for let's say Paul Newman/Joanne Woodward...but heck we are living in troubled times here...everything has changed...does anyone read thier Bibles anymore? Who are we to judge? Let people do as they wish..God gave us all the right to free will and in the long run it will be he and only he that judges...

msmariahater Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 11:10 PM EST

Ms MAria is a loon. Wake up - There is no god u dumass. Its just a picture, if you don't like it don't look!!!!

Dolores Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 10:38 PM EST

I don't think the photos are distasteful in any way. What I do disagree on is why do they have to publicize their private moments. That should be shared between them and not the whole world. I just wish they could give their children more stability in their lives instead of hauling them all over the world. Children need to have stability in their lives. That disrupts their lives being pulled and tugged all over the place.

Julia Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 10:23 PM EST

Here's why I dislike Angelina Jolie. It has nothing to do with her breastfeeding in a photo. And I don't care about her "stealing" Brad Pitt. I dislike her because she pisses all over her own country. There are plenty of wonderful, needy children in this country to adopt...she refuses. She has to go to another country to give birth. What is so awful about her own country that she can't even give birth to her kids here? She cites "privacy" for wanting to do this, only to turn around a few months later and sell every photo to every magazine. She lives life through a camera lense. She parades those children around, going from one city, one country, one school to another. She talks about how wonderful her kids are, what a great parent she is, yet she can't seem to offer her kids the stability of just going to school. I'm sorry, this has nothing to do with jealousy, I just think she's a hypocrite. So stop acting like she is God's gift to parenthood, she's just another mediocre actress.

Pam Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 10:22 PM EST

I totally agree with Ms Maria, and not Yvonne...yes, God made our breasts for that purpose, BUT...in todays depraved society it's selling goods. "look at me, I"m such a good mommy!" It takes more than leaking milk ducts to make a good mom. It's Beautiful only to the dad.
"Whowhosoever looketh on a woman to lust after her hath committed adultery with her already in his heart". Plain and simple IT'S THE ATTENTION SHE CRAVES. By the way all you pro public breast feeders, before you get your bowels in a dither about my comment, I breast fed 4 children and no one but my husband was blessed...as it should be!

Sara Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 09:20 PM EST

Yep, they're sell-outs. They needed some more money to afford their jet and its gas to take them around the world.

jw Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 09:20 PM EST

Beverly, shouldn't you make that "if we IS so dumb".

Liz Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 09:00 PM EST

I don't see what is so controversial about breastfeeding or that Angelina Jolie is doing it on a magazine cover. She's discretely covered for one thing. But, this is Angelina Jolie...she makes her whole life a cover story. She seems to like it that way.
I'm pretty "puritanical" but I think that picture is quite beautiful, and I am not a Brangelina fan in the least.

beverly Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 08:10 PM EST

you better watch what you say americansaredumb if we are so dumb why are you here go back skank they are more wild birth defects in foriens than any one eles so kiss my american ass.you are jelous of americans because were more good looken and nicer and cool and sexy and free and blessed... and you are full of the devil.....ugly ugly

americansareDUMB Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 07:36 PM EST

you american women are DUMB!!!~ breast feeding is the best for your babies! all the vitamins and nutrition your babies needed are from your breast! not from the bottles...no wonder your children are fucked up because you are selfish that if you breast feeding your boobies wont be perky anymore. once again you american women are selfish, all you care about is your body!

Laura Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 07:27 PM EST

Although I agree that there is nothing shameful about photo's of breastfeeding, I do think by publisizing 'private moments' takes that away from the photo's...The point for anyone to have these photo's is for privacy and intamacy between spouses, family, and close friends...It has to do with trust and by doing this Pitt and Joilie are saying, "hey there is nothing private or special between us. We are an ad!"

Hopefully these will like all of there photos, go to charity, but I really think sociaty needs to rethink what it holds sacrid and what it sells out on.

Cowboy Barker Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 07:14 PM EST

Enough of them, he never should have left Jennifer. jolie is a homewrecker,just like the Women I am currently with and can't get rid of.

Mary Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 05:16 PM EST

Well, I'll pick up a stone and give it a toss. Like many others, I have no problems with the photos. I think they are quite beautiful. I do have a problem with the amount of attention these two direct their way. I remember reading an article after Angelina adopted Maddox, where she said she was getting out of the movie business, moving to London, and "just being a mum". Like an idiot, I bought it. Papparazzi or not, she loves the attention. And, because I am entitled to my own opinion, collecting children bothers me. As does moving them around constantly. Have these kids ever been able to make a friend? Their lifestyle is weird, and I think it's weird that so many people look up to them. Just my opinion.

Jax Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 05:04 PM EST

Keep your morality to yourself. If you haven't noticed, with a global population of over 6 billion and every one of us being an individual, morality should be a personal preference just like faith, but time and again I see those that use a forum like this as a way to preach and condemn instead of support and tolerate.

Public high profile celebraties or not, chosen glamorous careers or not, they deserve, in the end, to be treated like human beings, just like each of us.

Tina M. Kelsey Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 03:44 PM EST

There's a saying that only those without sin may cast the first stone. I see a lot of stones lying around, but does anyone stop and think what life must be like for these celebrities? Sure, it's probably fun to be recognized in the beginning, but when it gets to the point where you can't go anywhere or do anything without a media frenzy, I'll bet most of us would hate it. And would those that say they're "whoring" REALLY pass up a chance to help hundreds of needy people if the opportunity presented itself? Come on. You're shallow and stingy if you woudn't help others in such a painless way. Get over yourself and try putting yorself in someone else's moccasins for a change.

MsMaria Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 03:18 PM EST

Wow, I will try to make this brief. It would be "natural"as God intended it to be IF we weren't the people we are today in this God forsaken world. We mess all that up with our behaviors and our lack of a Godly world. Both these people are NOT the best example of a Christian couple representing God. They don't follow His commandments at all, but the world sees them as some sort of wonderful couple because, yes, they do help various charities. However, for Brad to donate thousands to the gay and lesbian community is another sign that this world does whatever we want, despite Gods laws and commandments. From the beginning of time, He's given us laws to abide by and we fail to do so. Hollywood is the devils playground and the loves all the actors/actresses spending thousands on a pair of shoes, or millions on a home. Brad and Jolie aren't any different than the rest of Hollywood. Nobody wants to listen or fear God anymore and He won't stand for it much longer-we have messed it u

Enough of BradAngielina! Time for them to "I Do" and make it official. Are they going to adopt every single child from each continent of the globe??
In my opinion- he(Bradley) shouldn't left Jennifer A.. She wanted to have kids and now he want to be married. How's weird is that?

Opportunist meter Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 02:10 PM EST

She and Pitt are off the wall. It is tacky and I think she is flaunting herself for money instead of anything of value. It is too gimmicky no matter what the "tone" or mood of the photo.

I think as a homewrecker (busted up Billy Bob Thornton's relationship with Laura Dern so raunchily) and her menacingly tasteless affair with married Brad Pitt and being 5 months pregnant when Pitt finally was served DIVORCE papers by Aniston. UGH. He even treated Gwnneth Paltrow shoddily when he decided to carry on with someone else. Neither has the maturity or class to deal forthright with their previous relationships.

She is manipulating and narcissistic as is Pitt. That whole vain self absorption is nauseating. They always look phoney,detached and plastic. He looks trapped and miserable in the photos. Please write and show pictures of worthwile people not these over exposed movie actors who have dysfunctional lovelifes.

Gross to these two shallow shells.
I think they are too exploitative.

Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 02:09 PM EST

I think these two should open up an on-line foundation, where their many fanatical fans could send money directly to them. Maybe they could have a monthly drawing giving one person the chance to travel to whatever country they are living in, at the winner's expense, and receive exactly 60 seconds to enthusiastically kiss the whole family's ass. As a parting gift, the winner will receive on of Maddox's own knives! That way, they'd get all the money they want without the rest of us needing to look at them. Everbody wins.

yvonne Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 02:09 PM EST

A Christian believer would have to appreciate the beauty of breast feeding. God made our breasts for that purpose. You would have to have your mind in the gutter to think otherwise.

Kat Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 02:05 PM EST

I have to agree with Brian - a non-celebrity, non-wealthy, non-white (or white) average Jane having multiple children outside of marriage AND adopting outside of race would be censored, judged, and ostracized by family and society, and labeled a irresponsible, unfit '(multiples)'. Public fame, financial security and charitable participation does not change morality. To hold them up as examples is two-faced. Live and let live, but do not glorify what does not apply to all.

Christine Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 01:54 PM EST

It sounds like there is a lot of jealousy out there! People seem to have so much passion (negative) about this couple - who they do not know personally. It sounds like a great deal of this emotion is coming from right wingers - the so-called compassionate, conservative Christians. Ah yes, once again this group is displaying the love and compassion of Christ's teachings. I think Americans need to get over it!!! Pull the corn cob out, live and let live, and so on and so forth. Breastfeeding is natural - that is what breasts are for, so stop acting like immature idiots and live your own lives. While I don't think celebrities as a group are any more special than the general public, I do think this couple does a lot of good things around the world, probably more than their critics. They could choose to sell their images and keep the money for themselves. They could choose to sit back complacently and watch the suffering in the world (Katrina, Darfur, etc.), but they don't. What do you do?

Dorothy Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 01:51 PM EST

I feel its a wonderful way to promote breastfeeding which is much needed in our society.. For the health benefits for mother and child. I felt self-conscience and the need to hide while feeding my child.. It should be a widely accepted and natural thing not opposite of. I shouldnt have had to feel isolated or homebound because I chose to do the right and natural thing for me and my baby. So if someone doesnt want to see "leaky mams" they should put a magazine with fake boobs on the cover to shield there eyes..
I assume Brad&Angie are taking control and as celebrities giving the public what they want, and at the same time are doing some good at the same time. I see all the time that celebrities are told with fame and fortune comes responsiblity and loss of privacy to not wine about paparattzi.. If u ask me they do a beautiful job of handling there lives as celebrities..
As for sellin off there babes pics for publicity.. what choice is there? let the Ppz ambush them relentlessly

Crystell Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 01:37 PM EST

First thing I thought when seeing the picture was how happy she looked. Its a truly beautiful picture, and for such a media whore, it's interesting to me that you can barely see any of the child she is supposedly pimping out. As for the breast feeding hoopla, who gives a sh**. It's better for the baby, gives the child immunity to things in the environment it wouldn't start off with otherwise, it promotes bonding between mother and baby, and helps the child overall. Get over yourselves already, I could not believe the rudeness in some of the comments. They give ALL the money away to charity people, all of it, are you saying the people receiving this money should starve, or be homeless because the pictures offend you? Who are the whores now?

Missy Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 01:28 PM EST

Beautiful picture.

Brenda Russell Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 01:03 PM EST

I think that the breastfeeding of her (Angelina)infant is so so natural. It is the mind of people that exaggarate and distort the image of something beautiful. Other primates do it and we observe them without criticism, so why be so absorbed with the fact of a homosapien mother providing a feeding to her baby?

lori Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 12:49 PM EST

I dont!no proof if they are marry or not. The public breast feeding and tatooes why show off and tired of hearing them over and over. Get over with this nut case publicity they need their own private with family and break from news!

Topper Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 11:36 AM EST

Who really and truly gives one poop about any of this? Thanks for bringing more out-of-wedlock kids into the picture. Everyone thinks this is so loving and sweet, but has anyone given any thought as to what this "family" is going to look like when all the kids become teens and young adults! OMG! I bet no one will be able to keep up with the arrests, drug addictions and other "model" behaviour from celebrities. These two are no better than a puppy mill. Spare us anymore of your self-absorbed drama. Boring, boring and boring.

Jessica Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 11:23 AM EST

I don't get the big deal about the picture? What's wrong with breast feeding? Maybe I've been living under a rock and don't see the big deal. As for the pictures being sold. It's a way to control it. Every pap out there wants a picture of their kids. Some of them would go to extremes, even endangering the lives of their kids. By putting photos out there that they put out there, then they are controlling it. No jobs for the photographers if celebs just did their own photos. It's not exploiting their kids. They chose which moments they want to put out there. I think it's a great photo.

Megan Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 11:20 AM EST

I am so sick and tired of everyone making something out of nothing! This is a shot of a woman with her baby that is so beautiful it is breathtaking. If you have any appreciation for the arts especially photography you would understand about the beauty and natural feelings from this photo. Most people too like to share wonderful moments caught on film. So don't make this out to be more than it really is!

mommy3 Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 10:34 AM EST

Beautiful pics. Why are people such haters when it comes to beautiful people doing beautiful things? Angelina is doing the best for her babies by breast feeding. Breast feeding is so intimate and I really felt a close connection to my girls. Breastfeeding twins isn't easy but Angelina makes it look so. Its gorgeous...keep up the great work. Angelina wasn't a fan of mine until she started having kids. I think that these show a mom regardless of how famous doing what most of us want to do and that is putting our kids first. I'm pretty impressed with Jolie.

elena Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 10:32 AM EST

Something I DIDN'T know, that I learned from reading the W article was that they donated the money to charity. That's really nice! Am I the only one who thinks that's kind of novel in the Hollywood La-La Land? Plus, I love taking candids with my friends, and this is like that, except they're by Brad Pitt and they're super-famous. But candids are fun, and way cooler than make-up crazy cover shoots...

Rembrant23 Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 10:11 AM EST

WAY TO GO BRAD AND ANGELINA... BEAUTIFUL PHOTOS, BECAUSE OF YOUR CELEBRITY STATUS, JUST MAYBE AMERICANS (THE PRUDES) AND THE WORLD WILL BE SHAMED INTO ACCEPTING A NATURAL PART OF MOTHERHOOD. ... MAYBE WE WILL EVEN GIVE TO CHARITIES AS WELL..... BRAVO!!!

It's beauiftul, healthy and natural. On and off camera, it's their business. With or without the millions they will receive, it's their business. It promotes love and not violence. It's something positive for a change than seeing violence on magazines. It's uplifiting.

Lauren Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 09:49 AM EST

Yes, yes of course it is nice they give the money to charity. But let's face it. They're still getting a huge payoff as far as publicity. They are still exploiting their children to ensure they remain in the public eye as long as possible. Sickos. Leave your children out of the magazines and then I might actually respect you.

sckatt Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 08:59 AM EST

Yes, these are just stunts, not "intimate moments". Fakers! Just look at her fake botulism pumped lips and that's enough fakery to prove it to me. Enough already! They may give the proceeds to charity, but that is still how much they had to be paid to exploit their children and perpetuate the madness this world is in of paparrazi and celebs. Maybe she should go back to college and learn how to channel her eforts toward an earthy cause. I never got paid to breast feed my children.

Love them, what gorgeous pics. And I think they're THE ONLY celeb couple who can get away with selling pics, the public is hungry for pics of them and their kids as are the paps, nobody in Hollywood garners this much curiosity, so why not control somewhat what goes out. PLUS they use the profits of pics for charity, not ego (*cough, JLo), so I applaud them for that. And Brad seens definitely madly in love with Angelina (sad for Jennifer, but hoping her lukewarm, desperately wanted movie career keeps her somewhat warm at night).

steph Tue, Oct 14, 2008 at 07:29 AM EST

First of all, you go Brad and Angie!! Wow I can't believe some of the comments people have left. I think Brad and Angie are great. And they do great things, but just wondering why her bi- sexuality is an issue? Im gay and my gf and I have 3 kids together and they are just fine. So her sexuality shouldn't be an issue. And she did some wild and crazy things who didn't? Other than the "perfect", people who "do no wrong" {or so ya'll haters seem ta think} so what does her past have 2 do with raising her kids? She is a lot more mature now and her kids seem to be happy, and I bet they raise their kids 2 b a whole lot better then those of u who judge them for being different. So she loves collecting knives? And im sure since her life revolves around her kids she keeps them put up and out of their reach. Beats havin a bunch of loaded guns kept where a 3 yr old boy could get one and blow his head off. It happened in my city yesterday morning. 2 me that's worse than knives. And how are they whoring, or pimpin their kids out?? All the money they get for babys pics goes 2 charity, J-lo sold her babys pics 2 people and said she would give a little of the 6 mill. she got to charity and was keeping the rest!! Like she needs money, that's pimpin and whoring ur kids out. I love the picture of angie, she looks so relaxed and content. And her kids will be raised a lot better then a lot of kids who's parents left insulting, rude, and just plain stupid comments on here!! Brad glad 2 see you found some happiness, Angie stay beautiful! As for the people like me who don't judge people cuz its not my job, have a great one, and those of u who r tired of seein, hearing,or watchin Brangelina, don't cry and complain about it, just turn ur head,plug ur ears,or close ur eyes... and if u can't then shut up we don't wanna hear what u have 2 say.......

Angelina is a beautiful woman with a confidence that any person should envy. I applaud Angelina and Brad for all that they have done in their charitable works. These two individuals really are making a difference around the world. If they feel that they would like to share private photos of their beautiful family then I'm happy to view them. It's an extra bonus that the money made from the photos will be given to charity. To all of the haters.....either stand up and make a difference.....or sit down and shut the f--- up.

Jax Mon, Oct 13, 2008 at 10:31 PM EST

Relaqx people...if you don't wanna know about it and don't wanna see it, why the heck are you commenting about it on a entertainment site? I find nothing wrong with pictures of someone famous showing breastfeeding, hell i have nothing wrong with anyone breastfeeding public or private, but our culture's reaction to it is usually imbicilic and depressing.

I think it's rather nice to see the couple, as said in the article, taking control of their own publicity and then turning around and giving the money to charity, not to mention putting a spotlight on a subject people would rathder pretend didn't exist. I still can't understand why, in this day and age, after all we've seen, these pictures would be considered controversial. As a society, we seriously need to grow up.

PLEASE - GO AWAY - FOREVER

Randi Mon, Oct 13, 2008 at 08:48 PM EST

who cares, who cares, who cares? I am SICK to DEATH of her, her 8 million kids, her partner, her pregnancy, this woman lives her life through publicity and it's ridiculous. I don't care about the magazine cover as mush as I care that she's on EVERY magazine cover. Get over it already, you people act like she's the only mother, actress, or charitable person on the planet. What is the big deal about Angelina Jolie????? She probably could not care less about any one of you, why do you care so much about her?

PUHLEEZ Mon, Oct 13, 2008 at 04:32 PM EST

I think you're saying it's okay b/c it's Angelina Jolie -- an actress whose looks and/or talent I'm guessing you admire. Brangelina are getting a free pass from lots of culture watchers for media whoring that others would be out and out criticized for. Don't give me any bs about how private you are or wish to be if you sell photos of your newborns or of an EXTREMELY private moment like breastfeeding to magazines. Brangelina cloak all their press whoring in an altruistic sheen -- oh, we're donating money to charity, we're spreading awareness/acceptance of breastfeeding, etc. If they were not hypocritical about guarding their privacy, they would NEVER allow baby photos on magazine covers for any price.
If this were, say, Nicole Richie (whom I detest), I'll bet you would not be justifying it.

Jessica Mon, Oct 13, 2008 at 02:24 PM EST

While you have a point that they are controling what moments of theirs become public, I think it is completely hypocritical! They can't complain about the invasion of privacy from the paparazzi and then give them a continued reason to keep trying to snap photos of them. They are media junkies. There are so many celebrities who manage to keep their lives private and away from the paparazzi and they can't, even though they complain about it...this is why. I absolutely believe in any woman's right to breastfeed anywhere and I think it's a beautiful thing, and I can concede the efford towards that cause, but I still think they're hypocrites and publicity whores, so to speak.

Patricia G, Houston, TX Mon, Oct 13, 2008 at 02:07 PM EST

I for one find the photos pointless...WHY??? So what on a cover breast feeding...most women do. I am over her and her cheating man exploiting thier kids...

Jess Mon, Oct 13, 2008 at 01:02 PM EST

Neither Jolie or Pitt are my type bit even I can't deny how beautiful Angelina looks here. She looks so peaceful, so incredibly happy. Good for them!

Personally, I think it's smart when celebrities choose what pictures to share; Not only they do control their image but, if they saturate the market themselves, the paparazzi won't be as hungry for a shot.

Jim from Saint Paul Mon, Oct 13, 2008 at 12:09 PM EST

"Do you think it's a boost for breastfeeding, or just a way to help promote Jolie's new movie, Changeling?"

The answer to both is Yes.

Emily Mon, Oct 13, 2008 at 11:25 AM EST

A beautiful moment captured in a lovely tasteful photograph. I love it.

camicar Mon, Oct 13, 2008 at 10:54 AM EST

The issue to me is not about the content of the photo, it's about the content of their characters - truly, they vie with Tom Cruise for the award for "Biggest Celebrity Attention Whore". There is no need whatsoever to sell/provide private pics to a magazine except to see yourself in print again. They can clean it up all they want with citing their gifts to charity, but whoring is still whoring.

Jael Mon, Oct 13, 2008 at 10:28 AM EST

You forgot to mention that W is a very high end fashion magazine. This isn't like People. By putting this on their cover, they are emphasizing the beauty of motherhood, stretch marks and all.

Lene Mon, Oct 13, 2008 at 10:12 AM EST

I wish North America would get over itself and its obsession with breasts. Feeding your baby is "private"? Would it be "private" of it were a bottle? No?? Idiotic. I'm from Denmark (where most breastfeed) and was once in the airport with a friend and her baby. Baby got hungry, mom whipped out the food supply (no hiding under ridiculous blankets) and no one looked twice. Because it's not sexual, it's FEEDING YOUR CHILD!

Breastfeeding is better for baby and mother, having all kinds of long-lasting health benefits - physical and emotional - for both. If this can encourage more mothers to feel proud about breastfeeding, I'm all for it. And if they once again donate the moeny to a worthy cause (as they always do with these kinds of images), it's a win-win.

kw Mon, Oct 13, 2008 at 08:46 AM EST

WOW. Two of the most beautiful people in the world doing one of the most natural things in the world. Breastfeeding. Peace to two of the most giving actors in Hollywood.

Shelly Mon, Oct 13, 2008 at 08:19 AM EST

Who cares??????? People are killing themselves over loosing their homes. WHo cares what these rich people do? They have no power if we just don't pay attention or idolize any of them.

Teresa Mon, Oct 13, 2008 at 07:20 AM EST

It really urks me that people are so quick to judge others yet they are soon to forget that if it wasn't for Brad and Angie, the people of New Orleans wouldn't be getting new homes from the money the get from pics. So if the press (and others) isn't helping shut up about it!!!!

VICKY DYKE Mon, Oct 13, 2008 at 06:55 AM EST

This is a beautiful photograph of mother and child. Get over the puritan attitude people.

tam Mon, Oct 13, 2008 at 06:45 AM EST

I think the photo shows a man who see's the whole motherhood thing as beutiful and so do I.

CHG Mon, Oct 13, 2008 at 06:24 AM EST

My God, what is the big deal? Beautiful woman, beautiful photo. So much nicer that a shot up Brittany Spears dress!!!

Simply Me Mon, Oct 13, 2008 at 12:28 AM EST

Tough question? No, not hardly, she's a beautiful woman and breast feeding her child is what God gave women breasts for. And actually you can only see the outline of her breast and her child's hand, please tell me how ths can be considered something ugly to look at.

JJ Sun, Oct 12, 2008 at 11:38 PM EST

I don't think breastfeeding is taboo because we're all a bunch of prudes. It's taboo because most normal people have no desire to see some woman's leaky mams hanging out in public. But, oh right, this is Angelina Jolie! Of course! People will pay top dollar to see her leaky mams! At least this is the impression I get from this cover. It's pretty pathetic, IMO, and she'll pimp out her children anytime it means publicity for HER. Would people buy this magazine if Christina Aguilera was breastfeeding on the cover? Nicole Kidman? Clay Aiken?

AB Sun, Oct 12, 2008 at 11:02 PM EST

Does this guy Jerry do anything other than insulting people who post things on websites? Pretty sad really. Somebody needs a date - or human contact in general.

This is a celebrity couple, so obviously there is less privacy for them. Attacking a Hollywood couple for being concerned about their image is like attacking a politician for being "political". But as far as Hollywood couples go, its clear they are inteligent, socially aware and go beyond lip-service to actually trying to do some good for the world. Not saints, but definitely not the evil-doers some people seem to want to think that they are.

With the economy, the way, and all going on right now, is AJ honestly the biggest threat some people see to our society? If so, that goes a long way in explaining why we are in such a mess right now.

Eric Sun, Oct 12, 2008 at 10:30 PM EST

This is actually controversial?

Jesus, when did America become a land of skinless p**sies?

Lorianne Sun, Oct 12, 2008 at 10:25 PM EST

two words: media whore

Roni Sun, Oct 12, 2008 at 10:24 PM EST

I'm sorry, but I'm sick of this woman, does she have to be everywhere? We get it, you are sooo wonderful, you are sooo beautiful, you are sooo charitable. You know what, I'm really sad that society puts her on a pedestal, she's just another person, for God's sake find someone important to idolize.

Jerry Sun, Oct 12, 2008 at 08:18 PM EST

Leah, are you CAT/Newman's sister? I didn't read a lot about Jen in this blog, but maybe you're just reading your own breadup into it. I'm sure he left you for someone with a sense of humor.

leah Sun, Oct 12, 2008 at 08:10 PM EST

i really think the whole "she stole a married man" is OLD. get over it ... julia roberts' now-husband was married when she started to date him, as well. many peoplee go thru that kind of situation, it's called LIFE - and no one can 'steal' a person away. I highly doubt Jennifer Aniston needs your pity or cares and the puritanical holier-than-thou attitudes on this board are tired, old and more than likely hypocritical. If they give the $$ to charity, who cares? Tax write off or not, they're still doing more than half of the beyotches on this board so if you don't like it, don't buy the mags.

Jerry Sun, Oct 12, 2008 at 08:10 PM EST

Gee, Newman, was your previous post under the name CAT? You're pathetic, nothing more, nothing less.
