"A million dollars, two, five, 10 even 20 million? Exactly how much the first "official" snaps will be sold for is not clear. But the figures being bandied about make the eyes pop."

"The only other photos that 'would possibly come that close is Britney Spears giving birth to an alien,' he said."

What they should do Ð and probably will do ÐÊis sell the photos themselves and then use that money towards the charities that they support. Someone's gonna get pictures of those babies at some point. They might as well use that money for good rather than lining some leech's pockets.
 
I just hope Jolie got her tubes tied or Pitt got nipped so they won't have anymore kids and subject the rest of us to another episode of Whogivesashit.
 
I'm not really a big fan of anybody who's famous. But for the amount of publicity those two get they don't really seem to come out and say much or make themselves out to be a bigger deal than they are. They seem to keep to themselves for the most part, despite the insane amount of media coverage around them.

When they were in Austin filming a few months ago, their kids went to an average Joe kind of daycare in South Austin. I saw them there several times and they never acted better than anyone else nor were they ever standoffish or unfriendly even with no cameras around.

I think they have 6 kids now, half of which are adopted. If they were not famous we'd be talking about how noble it is to adopt that many kids.
 
I seriously don't understand the market for this kind of stuff. I can honestly say that I've never wanted to pay money to see pictures of someone's newborn baby. And I can't think of any baby I'd pay money to see, including the spawn of VY.
 
Along the lines of what chuychanga said, they are pretty humble. They live what they preach and they help a **** ton of people on a regular basis. I think of their adoptions like somebody who may work at an animal shelter and brings home lots of dogs because they cannot bare seeing them suffer. No, kids are not dogs, you know what I mean. They have soft hearts.

They are also passionate. They would prefer to have less limelight but they make use of what they get to help others. That is not a bad thing. Many stars and rich people donate money and are done with it. There, they were charitable, give me my tax write off. But they go down in the trenches and live it. I respect that.

A concensus here about Lance Armstrong from people that know him or have met him a few times is that he is pretty much a prick. But, he is a guy that also dedicates his life to help others stricken by something deadly, cancer. He uses his face and image to promote his life saving messages. For that, he is a great man.

Bradgelina could donate a fraction of what they do to places and still be considered generous. But they give much, much more than just money. They give themselves. Honorable.
 
What in the wide, wide world of sports is wrong with people? Sheesh. I obviously don't know these two, and don't really care to. They have made a career out of pretending to be other people on film. They're good at it, which is nice, and they've made a lot of money. And if they're giving away some of that to charity...great.

But why would anyone care this much about seeing these photos? I'm asking seriously. Who are these people, because I don't know any of them.

Man...
 
There was a really good article earlier in the year in The Atlantic about the paparazzi and the unhealthy demand for celebrity news, photos, etc. Aside from making very clear that Britney is a very, very damaged person emotionally and psychologically, I came away thinking mostly that I would never ever want to support that industry (the celebrity inside stuff, not the film), and I'm inclined to look down on those who do, however harmless they consider their own interest.
 
exactly, Kong, well done. that's the thing. paying to see a newborn's face, to be the first on your block.

like paying to see a gawt damn mail box.

congratulations! you've just seen the two little p i t t s h i t s, I'm sure to be named Navajo Whitney and Salmon Winnebago or some such hollywood kid-naming hoo haw.
 
Multiple posters on this thread have cracked me up. Good stuff.

If you want to see the market for this crap, go to the grocery store and watch all the 225 lb+ women snatch this stuff up like gold. There's your market.
 
The funny thing is that they could post pics of any babies from anywhere (just about) and the losers that are into this would buy it. They would ooh and ah or critique the young. I would love if they did just that. Post some random kiddos.
 
Don' confuse anything I've said on here with my giving a **** what their babies look like. I think there's a direct correlation between sales of People magazine and dropping IQs among Americans.
