CNN Crisscrosses Globe To Ask Angelina Jolie About Iraqi Refugee Crisis, What's Going On With Her Uterus

Mark — Thu, 07 Feb 2008 14:50:48 EST

Having dispensed with ten or so totally boring minutes discussing the plight of millions of Iraqi refugees with U.N. Goodwill Ambassador Angelina Jolie, CNN correspondent Arwa Damon felt that she'd established enough of a rapport to end their conversation by finally broaching the only subject the network's viewers really care about: "Hey, Angie, are you all knocked up with Brad's beautiful twinsies or what?" From CNN's transcript of Jolie's interview on the refugee crisis:

Damon: There are reports out of Hollywood that... (laughs)
Jolie: Oh don't. Stop it. (interupts I had to ask) Stay true to your tradition. You're CNN. Don't do it!

Damon: I know that's why I have to... (Laughs)
Jolie: But I don't have to answer. OK?

Damon: No you don't. I completely and totally ... you're right and will not press the matter.

Jolie: Thank you.

Unfortunately, the testy, uncomfortable exchange seems to have been edited of CNN's video of the interview, the "new" end of which we've excerpted in the clip above. At least judging from the transcript of their chat, Jolie seems to have been genuinely surprised that her inquisitor attempted to steer the conversation wombward, having lulled herself into a false sense of security when she discovered that the network had sent a real journalist, and not designated celebrity-population-control expert Larry King, to handle her questioning.

Taking A Cue From J-Lo, A Tight-Lipped Angelina Waits For Water To Break Before Revealing The Big Twins Surprise

Seth — Wed, 30 Jan 2008 12:47:25 EST

All you needed to do was take one look at Angelina Jolie's SAG Awards gown, a billowy sail of silk charmeuse that could have easily smuggled a schoolhouseful of multicultural toddlers, to wonder if the actress wasn't perhaps camouflaging something beneath all of that fabric. The world, of course, was not caught entirely off guard: News of a possibly Jolie-Pitt twins pregnancy inched its way up the tabloid totem last week, up from the paparazzi blogosphere, into the pages of supermarket literature, and now arriving in the semi-legitimate pages of Us Weekly:

Amid rumors that Angelina Jolie, 32, is expecting twins, a close source confirms to Us Weekly that the actress is indeed pregnant.
One SAG attendee tells Us in its latest issue, on newsstands now, "It was so obvious she was pregnant. You could clearly see the bump's outline."

The source reveals Jolie may sell the confirmation, with the money going to charity.

Reps for Jolie and Brad Pitt, 44, refused to comment.

There should be little question as to which trusted source will be approached for the exclusive family portrait, as Jolie long ago entered into a pact with People magazine, offering them first dibs on any new additions to her family—purchased, bartered, birthed, found-on-the- side-of- a-Pakistani-road, or otherwise. It will, no doubt, cost them: Their Shiloh exclusive alone was a $4.1 million buy, so twins would command a price somewhere in the vicinity of twice that, plus a last-minute stipulation requiring the magazine's editorial staff to spend the dry months of March to June digging irrigation ditches in Burma.

Angelina Quenches Thirst For Three At SAG Awards By Drinking Water

mollyf — Mon, 28 Jan 2008 17:04:47 EST

As much as we have tried to express restraint in the latest episode of Jolie Wombwatch, these photos of Angelina sans bubbly at last night's SAGs are hard to look at without a raised eyebrow or two. Sure, we sometimes drink water at parties, but that's mainly because we're broke and don't feel like spending 18 bucks on a sip of cheap champagne. So, with that in mind, let's recap the facts that we know up to this point: Angie was wearing a muumuu, the Pitt-Jolies can afford champagne, and water does a pregnant body good. We entered these facts into our trusty supercomputer and the results came back with 90% certainty that Mrs. Jolie-Pitt will soon be buying a few of those trendy expandable waisted Seven jeans at Kitson (as long as no animals, babies, or trees were harmed during the manufacturing process, that is).

Angelina's Muumuu Not-So-Subtly Suggests Presence of Baby Pitt-Jolie(s)

mollyf — Mon, 28 Jan 2008 12:27:55 EST

The rackalicious, curvalicious and usually teensy-waisted Angelina Jolie wore, for the first time in years, a real live muumuu to last night's SAG Awards, adding a bit more plausibility to all those rampant 'preggers with twins' rumors. Wearing a strapless vintage Hermes floaty number and clutching Brad's arm all the way down the red carpet, any signs of the pillow-lipped Perfect 10 bod were literally camouflaged (those brown, beige and gray shades would work well in Iraq) by a dress so long and wide that anyone stepping within ten feet of the (possible) new mother of twins would have slipped on its spacious circumference. Even more suspicious? Her decision to carry a shawl, lest anyone dare take note of her newly plump arms.

Second Exclusive Claims Insider Knowledge Of Angelina Jolie's Super-Secret Twins Pregnancy

Mark — Fri, 25 Jan 2008 12:35:04 EST

Late yesterday, we expressed some healthy skepticism about x17online's claim that an "inside source" had exclusively—exclusively!—revealed to them that Angelina Jolie, in her latest extravagant act of generosity to a world desperately in need of the salvation that only her womb can provide, had decided to become pregnant with twins, providing Chosen One Shiloh with the much-needed back-up the genetically perfect, anointed toddler will need to carry out her future missions of mercy across the globe.

Now, a second outlet has come forward with exclusive news about the status of Jolie's uterus, as a source "very close" to the actress tells the always-reliable Star about the double-blessing. Still, even with this parallel report of these impending biological additions to the already-overpopulated Jolie-Pitt clan (clearly, Brad has thumbed his nose at Larry King's concern that he's going a little overboard on the kid front), we urge infirm worshipers to put off their curative pilgrimages to the gates of the couple's estate until the story trickles upwards into the pages of People and Us Weekly, who'll likely receive official confirmation in exchange for promising to donate the proceeds generated by their blockbuster BRAD & ANG: WE'RE HAVING TWINS! cover story to the construction of a Pax Thien Wing for the Vietnamese orphanage that provided their last adoptee.
