People Magazine may get the first Brangelina baby picture
I thought I had already posted this, but can’t find it, so pardon if it is a repeated link! This article, from Yahoo! News is mostly the same story we have heard about how the paparazzi are having quite the struggle in Namibia, but it goes on to add this bit of unconfirmed news:
South Africa’s Sunday Times reported that Jolie had sold exclusive rights of the first pictures of the baby to U.S. celebrity magazine People, which would in turn donate $3.5 million to
UNICEF. This could not be independently confirmed.People magazine also reported that the couple have a plane on standby should they decide to have the baby elsewhere, though doctors usually advise against flying late in pregnancy.
There is also a rather funny account of a reporter using unorthodox techniques (well, is there anything orthodox about the paps?) to get his money shot:
“I’m disguised as a sand dune but I’m getting absolutely nothing,” one foreign photographer said jokingly, although he added quickly that he did not want to be identified for fear of immediate reaction by Namibian officials.
“This has really gotten out of hand. There is a no-fly zone over the hotel, it is an unprecedented display of police power. It is really ominous.”
**Also, keep your eye on the post comments here at PittWatch, we have a reader who lives close by the resort where Brad and Angelina are holed up - he has said he will give us the goods when he finds out anything. He also has some interesting comments about the paparazzi and Namibian laws. Thanks so much for reading and for offering up your knowledge and observations, Mike! ;)

I would not be supprised at all if Angie went through PEOPLE Magazine again. She did it with the first “official” “Yes I’m Pregnant!” shot. The made a huge contribution to the charity of her choice for the rights to sell that picture.
She knows how to use her star power for the higher good, and she’ll do it again and agian and again for the rest of her life…you just watch.
Go Girl!
