Angelina Jolie

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie now have four little ones at home, but it hasn’t stopped them from their generousity to third world countries. They recently donated $100,000 to help build the first modern medical center in Duk County, Sudan, which they also visited recently. I wish more celebrities would reach out and do things like this with their money, too.

Here’s a picture of Angelina Jolie carrying her new son Pax Thien Jolie. According to recent reports, the paperwork still has not been finalized, so she’s still unable to bring him back to America:

Although she tried to avoid all possible contact with reporters and paparazzi, she was snapped holding Pax in her arms under an umbrella, as she rushed to a VIP room at the airport. According to people inside and outside the Metropole hotel in the city center, she was driven there afterwards.

She is expected to meet with the US Embassy officials on Tuesday to apply for a visa for the newest member of her family with partner and Hollywood star, Brad Pitt. Once the visa is issued, she can take him home. Jolie is expected to leave Hanoi on Wednesday.

Let’s hope that she’s able to get him home soon so that Brad can start spending time with him as well. I would be worried if I were her since she said she almost got kidnapped last time she was in a third world country!

Angelina Jolie said that she’s planning to take a break from acting to focus on raising her children, and to help Pax Thien Jolie become adjusted in his new life in the spotlight:

According to an Associated Press translation of the Friday’s Ho Chi Ming City Law newspaper, she said: “I will stay at home to help Pax adjust to his new life.”

“I have four children and caring for them is the most important thing for me at the moment. I am very proud and happy to be their mother.”

She added that she’s worried that being thrown into the celebrity world will be hard for Pax: “Photographs and press coverage will make him upset. I’m very worried about that. I would like to say I’m sorry for bringing this into Pax’s life.”

I think it’s great that she wants to focus on her family, but hopefully she won’t stay away from acting for too long. I can’t wait for another movie starring her to come out!

Here’s the first picture of Brad and Angelina’s new son. His name hasn’t even been revealed yet, but isn’t he cute? (he’s the one on the left when looking at the picture). Hopefully there won’t be any complications with the adoption and she’ll be able to bring him home this weekend as planned.

According to reports, Angelina Jolie might be bringing her latest adoptee home as early as this weekend. She is in Vietnam now doing all of the paperwork and such.

The boy [that Angelina is adopting] has been living at the Tam Binh orphanage on the outskirts of Ho Chi Minh City since he was abandoned at a hospital as an infant, according to adoption officials. Shortly after he arrived at the orphanage, the Tam Binh staff tried unsuccessfully to locate the boy’s birth parents. The boy is healthy, friendly and a little bit shy, they said. He gets along well with other children and loves to play soccer.

I think that’s great that Angelina is adopting another child, although I still wonder why she never adopts babies from this country. Someone told me that in America the original parents can reclaim the child at anytime, so maybe that’s why. I hope she’s safe this time, since last time she went overseas there was an apparent kidnapping attempt on her!
