Does Angelina Jolie like her adopted kids better?
Filed under: Celeb Parents, Rumors
Angelina Jolie feels a stronger connection to Maddox and Zahara, her adopted children, than she does to Shiloh, the child she has with Brad Pitt. She told Elle magazine in a recent interview, "I met my other kids when they were six months old, they came with personality. A newborn really is this ... yes, a blob! But now she's starting to have a personality ... "
Meanwhile, in a recent interview with PEOPLE magazine, Pitt said that the couple wants another sibling for Maddox, Zahara and Shiloh.
In addition, rumor has it that Jolie wants a total of eight children, so be on the lookout for more adoptions, and keep an eye out for a bump.

Jillian said...Apparently our society has nothing better to do than gossip. Have any of you ever said something that didn't quite come out right? For the first few months most babies don't have a recognizable personality. They eat, sleep, cry, and poop. They don't interact much. If all you had to compare that to were children you met at 6 months or so, when they do respond, you would be a bit shocked at the lack of interaction from a newborn. Why do you think so many women are overwhelmed when they first bring their child home from the hospital? They have worked so hard for this child they feel they will be instantly bonded with, and all they really have is a crying machine that they have to try to understand. Until that baby can respond and interact, that can be tough. Lucky are the women who have that instant bond, but please realize that not everyone does. Celebrity or not, we are all different but only celebrities get the "wonderful opportunity" to make their mistakes public.

Faleisha Torres said...When she adopted her 2 children they came from poverty so of course after seeing these kids go through changes and watching them grow up she feels more connected to them AT THIS TIME!! Shiloh was born into fame, she will see all there is to see and she will never have to face being poor, hungry or homeless the way Maddox & Zahara did. I say God Bless Angelina & Brad and their beautiful kids.
And as far as why didn't she adopt from this country well this country is not stricken by poverty we have jobs and this country offers everything you need to make a good life for yourself and children. People here throw their kids into foster care because they dont have enough money or their too young well I say people go to school, get a job and if you can't do that then ladies KEEP YOUR LEGS CLOSED. Maddox and Zahara came from countries where there was no hope.

Kathie mae said...I am confuse about the post that you wrote Patty,
you said that Angie loves all 5 of her kids.
I guest you heard the same rumor as I did, that she is
4 months pregnant with twins, that is so not true.
Gosh, I agree, I have 4 kids, I truly enjoyed them more, and my love grew when they aged. I dont pay attention to the media, they twist things around.
I am proud of Angie for what she is doing, people do change, she is not that same girl, I changed when I had my first child too, I used to be a party animal..raw partying, my kids has changed my life.

Betty said...I think she is buying these kids to make people think she is so good. She should spend more money in America or give up her citizenship since that country means so much to her and Brad

cathy said...all of you that think that she is a "rotten " and "selfish" person should shut it. when was the last time any of you done anything to help another person? so what if she adopts children from different countries? there are lots of people in this country that adopt children that are not from this continent. i wish that people would stop being so critical and bashing her because she is not adopting children here or that she is self centered. if she was selfish, she wouldn't be having all these kids....so shut it!

Ruth Diamond said...I think Angelina has a lot of mental problems. She came from a disfunctional background and it has affected her state of mind. It is a shame that Brad left Aniston for her. Aniston is such a wholesome gir/woman. If she loves the foreign countries so much, let her live there permanently, and let's see if she can make the kind of living she is making here.

Ruth Samson said...Angelina....lesbian affairs...tongue kisses her brother, takes another woman's husband, won't let her kids see their grandfather although he certainly did no worse than she's done, bitches about poverty stricken kids, but spends millions to deliver a child in a foreign country, has a baby she calls a "blob", can't stay in her in laws house because they see the real her. Jeez Brad, mid-size town average guy, don't you ever wonder what the hell you got yourself into and what is going to happen when she tires of you as easily as she has everything else? Eight kids?, she shouldn't have a dog to care for.

anon said...hey val from the 29th, a little hostile arent we? Why so much hate toward her? Are you upset because she refused to give you an autograph. Get over it, some people decide to help people in other countries because maybe they might need it more than a person who lives in a country over flowing with money

dee said...You guys are crazy. I'm a big angelina fan and though brad might be whipped right now i think they're building a nice little family. I understand what she said.
To me all babies are blobs. like she said at 6 months old their personality is there and you can do more with them than just kiss and hold them after changing their diaper or giving them a bottle. Who just wants to sit and look at it?
Did she say she didn't love her? You see that anywhere in this article? If Shiloh does read this by then i'm sure she'll have a little brother or sister and think the same thing about them that her mom said about her

NanC said...I have a two word question...WHO CARES?
I don't care that Brad Pitt left Jennifer Anniston for Billy Bob's leftovers. I don't care that they may or may not adopt more children or have one of their own.
How nice of her to equate her birth child to a 'blob".
I do wonder how much of this story line is true and how much is media hype. Oh for the return of the good old days when celebrities married, had children and went about raising them in as normal environment as possible without all the fanfare and "to die for pics".
Enough of the Brad/Angelina, Tom/Kat crap....

Aggie said...There is nothing in this world more beautiful than a newborn. I feel head over heels in love with my daughter the moment I laid eyes on her and I've loved her more every day. The fact that Angelina would refer to her flesh and blood daughter, or any one for that matter, as a blob is a pity. I feel sorry for all her kids, adopted or not, she's certainly not a stable person. She COLLECTS kids, and that really bothers me. (Gee let's see, what color should I get next? What nationality will go with the kids I already have?) Sorry but she makes me sick,
