The W cover of featuring Angelina Jolie breastfeeding has hit the blogosphere.  The photos, shot by Angelina’s partner Brad Pitt, show the superstar mom feeding one of the couple’s twins. Brad took the pictures in August on the grounds of the family’s French chateau. Angelina talked about why she felt comfortable taking the intimate portraits.

“I’m with a man who’s evolved enough to look at my body and see it as more beautiful, because of the journey it has taken and what it has created,” she says. “He genuinely sees it that way. So I genuinely feel even sexier.”

This an abosolutely lovely photo.  I can’t wait to see the rest of the series.

Brad Pitt recently shot a series of family photos for W magazine.  Life and Style confirmed today that one of those shots shows Angelina breastfeeding one of their 3-month old twins.

“Angelina posed for Brad in one of the photos while breast-feeding,” a close source revealed to Life & Style. “It’s really beautiful and tastefully done.”

“The photos are amazing,” added another source.   Expect the magazine to hit newsstands on Oct. 21.  Last weekend Angelina unveiled her post-twins body at the Changeling premiere.  Angelina said that her own mother inspired her portrayal of Christine Collins the mother of a missing child.

Angelina and Brad Pitt took their oldest children, Pax and Maddox, to the Make Right building site yesterday for a look around.  Make it Right is the non profit organization that Brad founded to rebuild 150 homes in the Katrina devastated New Orleans.   Earlier this week Brad announced that the foundation had raised enough funds to build 90 homes.  Angelina and Brad make a real effort to share their philanthropic efforts with their children with the hope that the kids will follow in their footsteps.  Last month  the Jolie-Pitt Foundation donated $2 million dollars to the Global Health Committee to fund an HIV/AIDS clinic in daughter Zahara’s home country of Ethiopia.

“Our goal is to transfer the success we have had in Cambodia to Ethiopia where people are needlessly dying of tuberculosis, a curable disease, and HIV/AIDS, a treatable disease,” Angelina said.

Brad Pitt held his and Angelina Jolie’s 3 1/2 year-old-daughter Zahara at Cannes airport in Cannes, France.  The pair hopped a golf cart that took them to a private plane.  I’m guessing that Brad and Z are headed to the Toronto Film festival where Brad is slated to make an appearance. Angelina and Brad have said that make and effort to spend quality time with each child.  Last week, Brad took his two oldest sons to the Venice Film festival.  No word on how long the family will be in France.  I’m sure they are enjoying the privacy.

Brad Pitt’s in Venice to promote Burn After Reading at their annual film festival  Angelina Jolie, his life partner and mom to his 6 kids didn’t make an appearance but we did get a glimpse of his two oldest boys, Maddox, 7, and Pax Thien, 4. He took the boys out for a boat ride on Wednesday to survey the beautiful city and to show off their rockin hair.

Maddox is sporting a blue faux hawk while Pax decided that peroxide is his friend. Angelina adopted Maddox from Cambodia in 2002. Billy Bob apparently wasn’t interested in parenting the child. Angelina got full custody and Brad adopted him when the two got together. She took custody of Pax whose from Vietnam last year. Brad added his name to the papers soon there after.

People and Hello! have has released the first photos of Knox and Vivienne. People snagged the North American rights while Hello! had Europe covered.

Here’s what Angie and Brad have to say about their growing brood.

“It is chaos, but we are managing it and having a wonderful time,” Angelina told People about the family’s daily life. The old kids enjoy playing outdoors. Hide and Seek is the favorite.

Adds Pitt: “[It’s] still a cuckoo’s nest.”

Brad thinks he sees the family resemblance already.

“Viv is proving to resemble Ange in spirit, attitude and physicality… And Knox, he’s a bit of me.”

The’ve even got some little helpers.

“[Shiloh] and Z pick out [the twins’] clothes and help change and hold them,” says Angelina “It’s sweet – they are little mommies.” There’s even a cute little picture of the Shiloh holding Vivienne.

The entire 19-page spread will hit newsstands this week.

Us Weekly is reporting that Brad and Angelina used fertility treatments to conceive the twins. A “well placed” source insists that Brad and Angelina favorite couple went that route so they “wouldn’t have to deal with the stress of trying to get pregnant”. If the rumor is true(I highly doubt that it is), it would explain the twins. The chance of having fraternal twins jumps from 1 to 25 percent when couples conceive via in vitro.

This really doesn’t ring true. Angie got pregnant with Shiloh very quickly. This article suggests that Angie and Brad didn’t give natural methods try but just jumped right in with fertility treatments. Oh well, I’m sure US Weekly didn’t get the baby photos so they’ve got to have something to print.

Congratulations go out to Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie who welcomed twins Saturday evening.   Angelina gave birth to Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline at Santa Maria clinic of the Lenval Foundation Hospital in Nice. Knox came in at 5.03 lbs, and weighed Vivienne 5 lbs. Marcheline is Angie’s late mothers name.  Knox was the middle of name of Brad’s maternal grandfather.

Angie’s doc told the AP that “Everything is going well. The mother, the babies, the father are doing marvelously well.”  He added that Brad even cut the umbilical cords.  Rumor has it that exclusive photo rights have sold to a US publication for $11 million.

Angelina Jolie has checked into a Nice hospital in order to give birth to her twins. Lenval hospital spokesperson Nadine Bauer confirmed the admission. “There’s no urgency. It’s been planned for a long time. She’s very well. Everything is fine.”

Rumors have been floating about that Angelina will give birth to the twins on July, 4. If she checked in today, that seems a bit far off. That’s four days. Unless you’v e been under a rock you know that Angelina and partner Brad Pitt have four kids, Maddox, 6; Pax, 4; Zahara, 3; and Shiloh, 2.

Rumors also abound that the couple is havingt twin girls. We’ll find out sooner rather than later.

E! must feel like total tools after “breaking” the Angelina-giving-birth-story.  Pics of a still pregnant Angelina Jolie  flashed on ET!  yesterday but will actually appear in In Touch.  Angelina is still very, very pregnant.  Rumors are swirling that the babies are due July, 4.  I guess we’ll see.  This also puts rumors to the stories of Angie needed bed rest.  Or maybe she was on bed rest but doctors released her. She’s obviously still out and about being an active mom.  Good for her.  Four kids has to keep her on her toes.  I get tired looking at her.  At least E! media giant admitted their error.   Thanks to Randi at Brad Pitt Watch for spotting this one.
