JLo's $6 million twins
Filed under: Celeb Kids, Celeb Parents, Rumors
It would appear that when Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt accepted a reported $4.1 million for the first exclusive pictures of newborn Shiloh, a trend was born. Since then, other celebs have also raked in the big bucks for pictures of their new babies. Christina Aguilera was reportedly paid $2 million for pictures of her son and Nicole Richie is said to have been offered $1 million for hers. But Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony might just beat them all with the $6 million that Ad Age magazine says People has offered for exclusive shots of their twin babies, due any day now.
Lopez' rep says she's heard talk but doesn't actually confirm the story. People doesn't deny it, either. In fact, People managing editor Larry Hackett says, "Readers have to know that when there's a huge picture, a baby, a wedding, some life moment, People magazine is the place that you're going to find that."
Of this baby picture selling trend, Ad Age's Nat Ives said: "Graydon Carter was once famously accused of putting Paris Hilton on Vanity Fair's cover because she represented 'newsstand crack'. "Now we see the next generation: newsstand crack babies."
I have to say that as much as I love me some celebrity gossip and especially enjoy looking at their photos, I have never once bought a magazine just for the celeb baby pictures. Apparently I am in the minority there.

Kelly said...The difference between J Lo and the Jolie-Pitts is that Angelina and Brad gave their "fee" to charity. I don't believe other celebrities have done that.

madsam40 said...Double baby duty my A**. By the looks of their costumes and jewelry, It's clear that they spend more time on themselves than w/ their kids. J-Lo could have opted for the "natural" look which is in my opinion beautiful and realistic, unlike their Ozzy and Harriet pics they chose to take for People Mag. For a second, I thought I was looking at Vogue. She's not fooling anyone in leading us to believe they're the ones who wake up 4 times a night for feedings, god forbid changing diapers. I've never skipped thru the pages as fast as I did on an issue or threw up in my mouth as often either. Totally NOT impressed.
