I think she posed for People with Maddox in this pic. Funny how she started doing Maddox's hair in a mohawk and now other small celebrity children are being groomed that way.

i recall seeing a spread around her Wombraider days, with her and Maddox, in identical outfits sitting on a bed making "fierce" faces.

That woman pimped her children pre Brad. WE SHOULD NOT KNOW SO MUCH ABOUT THESE CHILDREN AND KNOW THEIR FACES! There are some real A listers out there, and I wouldn't know who their children are if I tripped over them. Earth Mother my black a&s, she is chief child pimper supreme.

She exploited Maddox in a different way, making him believe that Pitt would be a good daddy for him.

She did sell pictures but they didn't make it on the cover. Remember the "candids" of her and baby Maddox in the park? And baby Zahara in a carrier while Jolie flipped through mags in a bookstore? Those were planned photo ops.

She was on the cover of People with Zahara. I don't know if she got paid or did it for the good publicity against the homewrecker accusations.

It was all about the publicity, belive me...remember, six months earlier she was all about adopting a blue-eyed, blonde-haired Russian kid("Gleb") -and THEN she realized just how much publicity and the humanitarian accolades she would garner by if she adopted an African child during the "Live Aid" event! Count on it: that was at least ONE of the reasons she INSISTED on adopting at that time. Brad was clearly unenthusiastic about the adoption, remember? I wonder if she counted on the stunt ALSO helping to quench all the BAD publicity about her homewrecking, or was it just a "happy coincidence" that it did so?

I wasn't following them during this time so I'm wondering what gave you the impression that Brad was unenthusiastic? Was there something written about it?

Is it just me or does it look like Brads checking out Shiloh to see if she's his and Ange is looking at him like, you better believe.

[angel8]

She's exploited every single one of those kids. You don't realize how bad it is til you see the covers. I had no idea how often she pimped children.

She's the pimp unfortunately her children and People Mag. are the johns. So to speak.

This has ALWAYS struck me as the WEIRDEST "first baby photo" EVER. Most proud parents are photo'ed BOTH LOOKING AT THEIR KID, and SMILING PROUDLY. Here, Mangy is looking at BRAD as if to say"Whassamater? You don't trust me that it's 'your' kid?", and notice that Brad is NOT smiling AT ALL. Tjis is supposedly his 'firstborn" here; where's the "proud poppa" look, eh? methinks that "Brad ain't the dad", or at least KNOWS that there's a distinct possibility of that!You can BET that his lawyers BEGGED him to get a DNA test done ASAP!

That's what I was saying. I SO agree.

Not sure if you saw my post above.

Well, there WAS a German article written at the time (this was when the site here was fairly NEW and we didn't have the selection of web-savvy people we do now) and something was written in it that indicated that Brad and Mangy had obviously "locked horns" over the adoption, and Mangy had pushed it through, obligating Brad to "go along" with it;he couldn't very well REFUSE, now could he? He had just DUMPED his wife for ther skank, supposedly because he "wanted children" and presumably he was 'on board' with the "adoption" thing, because that was her big schtick, after all; he couldn't exactly say "I'm not interested in adopting!" But, it was quite apparent from the reports that Mangy was the one doing all the pushing for it, and Brad WASN'T. His LACK of enthusiasm and his failure to participate fully in the whole thing was QUITE notable! It looked to me like mangy was trying to 'cement" their relationship with this adoption, and Brad wasn't having any. in fact, it looked to me like he was planning to give her the ol' "I need space' speech...until she "fell pregnant', very conveniently, only a month and a half after adopting Zahara. I cannot shake the notion that she KNEW this(She's only been dumped about 3000 times by her married boyfriends, so I imagine she developed a 'sixth sense' about it!), so she DELIBERATELY set out to get pregnant, knowing that Brad would be stuck BIG TIME!

Wow, I never knew this. Thanks.
I wonder then why he went with her to Africa and went through the adoption training (so I've seen written somewhere). Also, did Barbara Walters interview them over in Africa and show them playing in the desert or something. Not sure if she interviewed both of them or just one of them if this was even the same time I'm thinking of.

I wonder then why he went with her to Africa and went through the adoption training (so I've seen written somewhere). Because he "HAD TO". He had just DUMPED his wife in the cruelest and most humiliating way possible, don't forget; HE ALSO needed the 'good publicity' such an adoption would bring, AS WELL. Notice, though, that he carefully "held himself aloof" from it as much as he could; the adoption was in HER name ONLY. Also, did Barbara Walters interview them over in Africa and show them playing in the desert or something. That was just before Shiloh's birth, and it was Anne Curry who interviewed her.I am TOTALLY convinced that her "giggle fit' during the interview was due to the fact that she was NO LONGER PREGNANT, and was FAKING IT with a prosthetic. She needed to push Shiloh's birthdate as close to 'summer' as possible, so people wouldn't realize how QUICKLY she got pregnant, i.e. in JULY, 2005, just a month after the divorce decree was issued! Not sure if she interviewed both of them or just one of them if this was even the same time I'm thinking of. It was just HER, not Pitt, who was interviewed, as i recall.
