Brangelina is Fly

181. As to the blob comment. Angie did NOT say that word.

The INTERVIEWER ASKED HER A QUESTION.
SHE SEARCHED for THE WORD.
The INTERVIEWER SUPPLIED HER the WORD.
She agreed.

People please educate yourselves before you blow things out of proportion. The quote about Shiloh was taken out of context. This is what the Elle article says:

So Angelina clearly loves her two older children, but did she worry she’d feel differently about her biological child? People often seem surprised that she and Maddox are so close, she says. "The world has this opinion about the difference, then you wonder if there is a difference. In fact I found the opposite. I think I feel so much more for Madd and Zee because they’re survivors, they came through so much. In some way they’re strangers because they had this life before me. Shiloh seemed so privileged from the moment she was born, I have less inclination to feel for her. I have to do the opposite from what I expected! I met my other kids when they were six months, they came with a personality. A newborn really is this…"

"Blob?" I suggest as she pauses.

"Yes, a blob! But now she’s starting to have a personality. The three of them are very funny together, very loud and in each other’s faces. She’s grown up with Zee screaming in her face in the morning! But, yes, I’m conscious that I have to make sure I don’t ignore her needs, just because I think the others are more vulnerable."

SO PLEASE STOP THE HATE AND NONSENSE AND STOP BLOWING THE MISQUOTE OUT OF PROPORTION!!!

183. Liberal are a helluva lot better for our country than conservatives or Christians. Just look at the mess Bush and his rightwing Christian conservatives got US into.

No healthcare or food for many Americans but we can "build" Iraq. Eff this.

Not to mention that Bush and his ilk LIED to get us into this crazy war.
Oh yes, we need more Christian conservatives - like a hole in the head.

I didn't come on here to bash anyone or criticize peoples way of thinking, just give my opinion just like everyone on
here. If you think that carrying your kids everywhere you go is a great idea..go ahead. That is your decision. I am a parent
and choose not to. I will not reduce myself to silly "your kid is better than mine"games. If my post did not make sense to you...oh well. Nothing lost there.

As for Will and Jadas kids, I have better things to do than troll around boards to criticize people and the story is not
about them anyway. Everyone is different..you should learn to
respect that.

As for silence....I think not.

191. Why would the adopted kids need to have extra attention? All the kids should have equal attention.

192. Hey anonymous - whenever I hear or see the phrase 'taken out of context' I know that it's 'spindoctor' speak for 'I screwed up by telling the truth and I didn't think anyone was paying attention'... so ram it.

IF according to you, Angeloser was fed the word 'blob' (which I don't believe for a second), Angelala agreed with the term 'blob', she agreed with the assessment 'blob'. She never said 'wait a moment, I don't like the term blob'.

She herself referred to Shiloh as a blob, period.

He's the ACTUAL QUOTE from Elle magazine btw - without the editing, without the redaction, without your spindoctoring. In other words it's all in HER WORDS. To use YOUR quote - educate yourself.

Now for the Quote: "Jolie tells Elle magazine that she's more partial towards her adopted children, saying, "I think I feel so much more for Mad and Z because they're survivors, they came through so much. Shiloh seemed so privileged from the moment she was born. I have less inclination to feel for her... I met my other kids when they were six months old, they came with personality. A newborn really is this... yes, a blob!"

You notice that she also admits to having 'less inclination to feel for her' (meaning Shiloh)...more partial to the adoptees. Wow. That's real Mother of the Year material. That is also sarcasm, dearie.

You seem to be either a Brangeloser paid blogger, trying to counter some of the public's animosity engendered by those two self-absorbed, globe-trotting nitwits. Either that or you are someone close to them - a lawyer, publicist, family member or perhaps old Angeloser herself.

So take your 'out of context' comment and shove it sister. You're not convincing anyone but yourself.

As for your inane comment regarding her buying souvenirs - I mean adopting non-American children - your comment about it being a 'good deed' is a non-sequitor. Charity begins at home. But they flit off to third world countries and buy children - yes, that is what they are did - so they are indulging in human trafficking, and it's no different than buying a human as a slave. The person was bought regardless of what the purchased human is supposed to do... either totting barges, lifting bales or being photographed being carried by the nutcase or Mr. Mom.

...and in this case all that gallivanting around looking for 'ooohs and ahhhhh' from fawning fans, obsequious minions, smarmy syncophants and assorted idiot politicians - (including dolts at the UN) is solely for the purpose of massaging their Oh! so fragile egos and chasing the spotlight for imagined adulation.

She is no different than that other media whore, Princess Di.

They both felt lonely and ignored as children therefore they both adopted the 'I'll show you!' attitude as adults.

There is a very real backlash against Brangellollop. The public can see that she can't sit still, she feeds on the publicity and mainlines headlines. The kids have no stability as they are constantly buying and selling homes, flitting here and there -

The bile of their hypocrisy is rising in my gorge... go ahead and spin to someone actually gives a sh*t. Others might buy your baloney, but I won't. Those two might have half of Hollyweird fooled, but the public is starting to open their eyes and see those self-absorbed jerks for what they really are. So save your posturing for someone else.

195. This is a good post written by Jaxon at justjared.com

I get so tired of the "Angie doesn’t love Shiloh stories."
How anyone can believe that a woman who has a heart big enough to love a stranger’s child and make it hers would then be unable to love her own child created with the MAN SHE LOVES. It makes no sense whatsoever but ever since that stupid "blob" interview tabloids have made hay with this one.

I guess it helps being a long time fan of Angie that I understand her, how she speaks, what she means, where she’s coming from— because I have a thorough base of information on her. I started reading the interview absolutely KNOWING that she puts motherhood first in her life and that she LOVES all her children with all her heart. That is simply a given. So it did not disturb me a bit when she agreed with the reporter that Shiloh at this particular age was still a bit of a "blob" who eats and sleeps and doesn’t have as much personality as the bigger kids. I doubt Angie would have used this word herself, she simply agreed with the reporter. That is always left out of the repeated stories. Nor did it cause me to doubt Angie’s love for Shiloh, but those waiting to bash her grabbed that one and ran like the wind.

Then the choicest line for the haters. When Angie said she felt more for her adopted children. Oh boy was this payday for haters. Did Angie mean she loved her adopted children more? No, she did not. When she said she FELT more what she meant was nothing about love at all. She was saying she felt more–and not the good feelings we enjoy feeling. If you looked at her context what she was talking about was feeling more worry, unease, concern, and vigilance since her adopted chldren had begun life in an institutionalized environment which is not an ideal beginning for any child. She will always have to be vigilant to make sure those beginnings don’t hinder or inhibit her children’s future. When she says she "feels" more she isn’t talking about love feelings, she is talking about worry and fear feelings.

Does she have to "feel" these feelings with Shi? Of course not. She knows that Shiloh has been loved, welcomed, and cherished since conception. She doesn’t have to be vigilant that Shiloh never feel abandoned or rejected because of early imprinting. With Shiloh she can relax and know that she has had all she needs from the very beginning. So, being the vigilant mother she is she said she reminds herself not to neglect Shiloh’s needs because she has always been loved from the very start. That’s Angie for you, she is determined her children have everything possible to make their lives the best it can be. But even this was twisted to mean that Angie dismisses Shiloh because she is privileged. What a crock. No wonder Angie never bothered to set the record straight. Her commitment to motherhood speaks for itself. That she loves her children is a given.

All this interview demonstrated to me is that Angie is a woman who finds motherhood the most meaningful job she could ever have and that she is committed to loving each of her children as the individuals they are and responding to those individual needs with everything she has to offer.

But my heart also sank at the way the reporter purposely sat Angie up to be misinterpreted. I knew the minute I heard the sound bites that the haters were going to crucify Angie with her own candid and heartfelt openness. That reporter made sure her interview would be repeated again and again by leaving out many of Angie’s comments that would have given better context to the statements she did use. I hope she’s pleased with herself. I’m surprised Angie is willing to give interviews at all when so often she is purposely misinterpreted. They want her to be a wild child again for better headlines. They don’t want to hear that loving her children means more to her than the greatest film role or the next 20 million dollar paycheck.

So if she must talk only about her children then let’s slant the story like there is a competition between kids for Angie’s attention. LIke there can’t possibly be enough love to go around. And best sound bite of all: that Angie just doesn’t feel love for her own child. That blue eyed, blonde haired Shiloh just isn’t exotic enough to capture Angie’s attention. And I look at Shiloh and wonder how anyone in the known universe could believe that the mother of this beautiful child doesn’t love her.

Yet they do. Believe. Such ridiculous lies. Incredible.

And Angie doesn’t bother to set the record straight because I imagine she figures anyone stupid enough to believe her wonderful child is unloved by her mother is not worth educating with facts. She just carries on loving and tending to her family like they are the most important thing in her life. Because they are. Anyone with half a brain can see that. Obviously there are quite a few people walking around with less than half a brain.
