Welcome home, Knox and Vivienne!
July 19, 2008 by Sherry
Despite paparazzi up on the rooftops and horrible, scary rumors of paparazzi renting helicopters in a desperate attempt to capture the first photos of Knox and Vivienne Jolie-Pitt on the sly, all the people behind the cameras were foiled. Angelina Jolie, Knox, and Vivienne were discharged from the Lenval hospital and arrived home safely.
Well thank goodness for that, because thoughts of paparazzi chasing down a helicopter departure immediately reminded me of Princess Di being chased for a photo op right before she died.
The family - and presumably Brad Pitt was with them - left in the dark hours, heading out at about 4 am on Saturday morning. Rather than leaving in a helicopter, which was how she arrived, she slipped out by car. According to People, an observer said, “We saw the cars and we thought it was her but we didn’t see anything.”
That’s so wonderful to know that they were able to leave quietly. My theory was that they would slip her down to the emergency room and transport them out by ambulance. The idea would be that no one would think it was Angelina or the Jolie-Pitt twins, that it would just look like an ambulance heading out on an emergency call.
They did, however, elude the press by slipping out the back way. You can read the full story of their well-organized departure here.
Dr. Sussmann, Angelina’s doctor was the one who broke the news to the disappointed paparazzi, saying, “You can go home. The story is over.”
What a relief to know that Angelina Jolie, Knox, and Vivienne are safely at home at their chateau.
megan fox never said she was hotter than angelina. i forgot where i read it from, but it was just some tabloid that fabricated it. no surprise there.
anyway, i’m not into megan either. heh. i share lainey’s point on her, and she just seems like just any other blender girl. when she used to be on hope and faith, i thought she was already beautiful, but then, the plastic surgeries kind of notched down my opinion of her. (i’m more into the likes of ellen page and amanda seyfried.) but she does work in a tough industry, and if she feels good about herself with the cosmetic surgery, then good for her. but for me, i just see her as another blender girl. she’s just so overly made-up. no doubt she is sexy and pretty, but i feel she has more of that centerfold look than the kind of beauty that angelina commands, which is more natural.
but as they say, beauty is in the eye of the beholder. i’m sure megan will come into her own, someday. hopefully, she’ll eventually tire of the superficiality that seems to intoxicate a lot of hollywood starlets … who are more focused on gaining fame than earning respect as an actor.
IMO, saying “I’m hotter than so and so,” isn’t self-esteem, it’s arrogant & tacky. Self-esteem is being confident enough of myself to wait for others to say it.
IMO, Megan Fox is an Angelina wannabe & she’s made herself over to copy Angelina as much as possible. But that’s OK if that’s what she wants to do to get attention for herself and boost her career. I don’t think highly of that tactic as opposed to being an original, but there it is. To me, the genuine original is always better than a copy.
I’m sure a day will come when Angelina won’t be considered by some as hot, beautiful & sexy because she’s past 40. I don’t think hot is equivalent to young, but a lot of people do. I wonder if these under-40 types are going to jump off a cliff when they reach 40.
about megan under mod (9 of 17?)
@Kim, I think Ligaya said it in a MORE direct way for me. I guess sometimes when you try to be cynical it doesn’t always pan out!
Trying to be LIKE someone and then start shouting that you are better than that person makes you look stupid and desperate.
