Fox news picked up the story finally too. I can’t help but wonder if the original due date WAS the 18th? maybe she’s been having contractions off and on this last week? that would explain all the rumors…they would have to have been started by an inside leak. I’m also thinking Angie may have had her babe last night… ???

b]Angelina & Brad Have a Girl!
Saturday May 27, 2006 9:25pm EST[/b]
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have welcomed a baby girl, Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt, a rep for the couple confirms exclusively to PEOPLE.
The child was born on May 27, at night, in the African country of Namibia.
The new parents, along with kids Maddox, 4, and Zahara, 1, have been staying at a luxury resort in Namibia since April, where their personal security team and Namibian police have shielded them from paparazzi.
Last week, the Namibian government said foreign journalists wishing to cover the birth must have written permission from Pitt and Jolie to enter the country and obtain a work permit.
The new girl is the couple’s first biological child. Jolie adopted Maddox from Cambodia in 2002 and Zahara from Ethiopia last year. Pitt is in the process of legally adopting both children.
The baby is the latest step in a life-changing year during which Pitt and Jolie went from costars (in last summer’s slick crime thriller Mr. and Mrs. Smith) to supercouple to, finally, Mommy and Daddy.
“It’s the idea that you love one another and you want to create a family together,” a friend of the couple’s told PEOPLE earlier this year. “What’s beautiful is you can do it by birth (or) by adoption.”
Word that Angelina was pregnant first broke on Jan. 11, when representatives of both stars confirmed the baby news to PEOPLE after the actress and U.N. goodwill ambassador had confided to a charity aid worker in Santo Domingo, Dominican Republic: “Yes, I’m pregnant.”
The pregnancy news – which came shortly after Pitt’s announcement that he planned to adopt Maddox and Zahara – might have been a media bombshell, but it was a natural progression for the pair who put nest-building on the fast track.
Jolie, 30, had long spoken about expanding her family, and told PEOPLE last October that she would like to adopt again. “There’s something about making a choice, waking up and traveling somewhere and finding your family,” she said.
Pitt, 42, has also often talked about wanting a family. He has no children from his 4-year marriage to Jennifer Aniston, which ended last year.
“I think he’ll be wonderful (with the new baby),” Pitt’s Assassination of Jesse James costar, Mary-Louise Parker, told PEOPLE earlier this year. “He’s a great guy, conscientious and kind. I’m happy for both of them.”

Now it’s up on People.com… no word whether it was a c-section or not. (Wonder if In-Touch did have it right after all?)
