Watching the Jolie-Pitt kids grow up
While we’re waiting for the release of the first photos of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s twins, Knox and Vivienne, I thought I’d point you in the direction of a great video that shows the first four Jolie-Pitt children as they’ve been growing up.
This YouTube video (thank you Ligaya, for the heads’ up) shows Maddox, Pax, Zahara, and Shiloh set to Lullaby by The Dixie Chicks and it reminds me of how quickly they’re growing up and changing. Can you imagine the changes we’ll see from the upcoming first photos of Knox and Vivienne to some day a year from now?
In other news, according to this article, People magazine sold 2.2 million copies of their issue that featured the first world-exclusive photos of Shiloh Jolie-Pitt. It was one of their best selling issues, eclipsed only the the 4+ million copies of the post-9/11 issue.
I wonder how many copies this Jolie-Pitt twins issue will sell. It seems like everyone is highly anticipating it, so the sales could go through the roof again. It will be interesting to see the numbers at some point in time.
(Thanks to Ligaya once again, for the link to the article!)

So touching!! The children are so happy it is a pleasure in watching them grow with so much love. Yes, they are fortunate to find such a loving home. God bless Angie and Brad in giving their children a blessed life. No one can ask for more than that.

Look at these children’s eyes. They are so bright. I think my favorite is Zahara Marley Jolie-Pitt. She made my day each time I see her face. Of course others childrens look fabulous, especially Shiloh.

Thanks for the video Sherry and Ligaya. Today is Sunday and I will be looking at People’s cover tomorrow.

Where are the pics????
Ahhhhh.
There was a red banner a few minutes ago, reminding people of the “world premiere” pics at 7 EDT.
Well, it IS 7 already.

Oh my god…Shiloh and Vivienne are just too cute in that pic!
Is it me or do they have slightly darker hair than Shiloh had as a newborn… at least it looks as if they do on the Hello! cover.
Marilynn

It looks like their hair is darker, yeah.. i’m hoping soo…. this is so exciting. The first thing I’m going to do tomorrow is going to get the Magazines… can’t wait.

Sherry thanks so much for the video, I enjoyed it so much. That said I just saw the picture of Knox and Vivi at Hello. I enlarged it to get a better look. Is Vivi on the left and Knox on the right? If so I believe that she has the pillow lips like Angie and Shiloh and if it is Knox on right I think I do see a bit of Brad in him. I can hardly wait to see the rest of the pictures. I might not even wait for Friday when mine comes in the mail, I might go to Barnes and get both magazines. Now back to the video, I loved all the pictures of the children, but the ones with Madd in his soccer uniform I loved, does anyone know where and when this was taken. I think it would be great if he could be part of a team.

I can’t believe how much the one on the left (Vivienne?) looks like Shiloh. Both of them have Angelina’s lips!! Must be a strong gene. Can’t wait to get a better view of the other one. Can you imagine having a little Brad boy around?

I just went back to Hello and their website is shut down. Do you guys think someone managed to get the photo and put it on other websites? People took their banner down as well. Something has happened. I’m thrilled I got a sneak peek anyway.

Just saw People’s picture which is different from Hello’s. Beautiful, I love all the love and pride that I see there. And the picture of Shiloh holding Vivi is wonderful. Love the little story about Zee and Shiloh being mommie’s helpers. Congratulations again to this wonderful family.

I echo Mary Ann. I have such a warm feeling seeing them. Very sweet and tender. Lovely photo of the twins and their parents, and of course big sis Shiloh with li’l sis Vivienne. *sniff*
I’ve read People will be at the newstands, Monday, Wednesday and Friday? I’ll be ready tomorrow for my treasure hunt. And my local Barnes & Noble only carries 3-5 issues of Hello, so I better get there early - I don’t want to miss out.

I got chills. I don’t often stop and think of them as “just as family” and this reminded me to look at these pictures for the intimate moments they are rather than just some snap shots.
Thanks, Sherry!

jan, are you talking about the People cover? If so then yeah. Vivienne is on the left. The bottom left corner reads.
“Vivienne Marcheline (left) and Knox Leon with their parents in France July [note: the following I’m not sure about] 27″
By the way, does anyone know if Brad has been wearing this ring before (Hello! cover)? It awfully looks a lot like a wedding band.

What a beautiful montage. They are some cute kids. Maybe I’m crazy but I think Shi and Z look like each other.Maybe they are like people and their mates, they say they begin to resemble each other over the years.Anyway they kids look happy and that is what really mattters.

beautiful, yes. the kids are blessed, yes. but why do people worship this couple? there are many “celebrities” that have adopted children, why does this couple win the golden award? what is missing in people’s lives that they spend money buying magazines to worship other peoples families? I’m just curious what the great draw is. Brad and Angelina do not love their children more than other parents, nor are their sacrifices greater. And who would sell pictures of their kids? Donated you say “YES” also used as a TAX DEDUCTION. Unless the money was sent directly to the charity from the magazine. Good luck to them.

Does anybody truly KNOW that the Jolie-Pitts claim tax deductions for monies raised by them for charity? I understand that People and Hello will donate directly to the charities, meaning the MAGAZINES will get the tax deductions.
Given their record, I’ll take Angelina’s and Brad’s words over the proven lies of tabloids and strangers with axes to grind. And even if the JPs *did* claim tax deductions for the millions they’ve donated to help people in the U.S. and around the world, what of it? They still pay taxes, just slightly smaller – they don’t get away without paying anything. (My husband and I have made substantial donations before, our deductions added up to just a tiny percent off our taxes.)
And shouldn’t critics first focus on celebrities that pocket the money without making charitable donations? Why do they get a pass and Angelina and Brad don’t? I think I know the answer. And, hypothetically, even IF the JPs donated just for publicity (a lie the tabs and h8ters concocted), the important thing is THE MONEY DONATED IS LITERALLY A LIFELINE for people who need it. What, are the critics saying - don’t help the American and Iraqi kids victimized by the war, don’t feed the hungry kids of the Ozarks, don’t help the Katrina survivors get homes – because Angelina and Brad will look good?
Before people excoriate Angelina and Brad yet another time, I’d love it if they’d preface their criticism with what they have done to contribute to society. Hot air doesn’t count.

”Shouldn’t critics first focus on celebrities that pocket the money without making charitable donations? Why do they get a pass and Angelina and Brad don’t?”
Because if they critisize other celebrities, no one cares about their articles or news. Unfourtunately, it is sad but true. Many internet sites, many news papers are always put Angie or Brad names in everyting to get attention. People (especially haters) are obsessed them and their children. I am sure Brad&Angie are also sick of this situation.
