PICTURE PERFECT PARENTS?

Filed under: Angelina Jolie, Brad-Pitt
It’s perfectly understandable that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie would have a team of nannies, but a team for each of their self-raised or acquired offspring is, really, a bit ridiculous.
But it gets worse — each set of nannies goes into a slough of depression every time a new baby is added to the existing menagerie, as it inevitably means a new, ahem, pit crew of hired help will shortly follow while the couple continue their on-going production: ‘Carry On Adopting.’
Clearly wanting to paint a good picture to the gawking media, the multiple teams of nappy changers and puke moppers are kept a close secret, as the Jolie-Pitt publicity machine goes into overdrive, making such calming announcements as: “Ooh, it’s tough, but Brad’s parents are really helping us out this month by looking after the older ones!”
Uh huh….

I don’t like them that much but I am not sure I believe they have a nanny for each child. Do they have help? Hell yah.
May 18th, 2007 at 8:28 am
why would they keep having help a secret? that’s just dumb.
I know plenty of families that do have a nanny for each child, and all i think is, “why the hell did you have kids”?

i’m not sure i believe this story..seems like quite a stretch. i see pictures everyday of brad dropping off and picking up the kids (all of them..except shiloh) from school.

…arasto do you EVER cite ANY sources at all? Ever?
You used to…but do you anymore?

I don’t know if I believe the story- and so what if it’s true.
“But it gets worse — each set of nannies goes into a slough of depression every time a new baby is added to the existing menagerie” THEN QUIT! please they’re getting paid a bucket load of money I am sure. I’ll do it

God, I can’t imagine taking care of 4 children on my own. 2 is enough as it is. No wonder they have nannies.

God, Arasto, why are you such a bitch about them? How many children have you rescued from an orphanage?
May 18th, 2007 at 9:24 am
1st - y’all can just step off the Arasto bashing. If you don’t like the blog there are infinite numbers of others you can patronize.
2nd-I don’t think the fact they have nannies is a secret its the fact they have a TEAM of help for each child, thats a little over the top. And, just because they go to school everyday doesn’t meant they don’t have Nannies, there are 24 hours in a day and they spend less than a third of that in school.

Many stories about them not true, had to know what is true now.

not buying the story. nannies, yes. a team for each kid, no.
May 18th, 2007 at 10:20 am
not buying the story either. but i’m raising four kids with no nanny! it IS possible, lol. but they’re celebrities and they’ve got the money. i’d have nannies if i could…

bullshit story…next.

“each set of nannies goes into a slough of depression” that sounds stupid, i don’t believe that. why are they nannies and why don’t they just quit?
i know a couple who has 2 kids and a nanny for each kid. the kids go to school and the wife doesn’t work. must be nice!
so i believe B & A has a nanny for each kid but not sure about a slew of nannies for each kid, but it’s possible. i’m sure they have cooks and maids, etc.

I said it and I’ll say it again. I’ll babysit- especially Shiloh, I just need room and board and ice cream money hahaha. nannies go in to depression my butt!

I’d be depressed to just having to look at Angie every day- NOT good for the self-esteem.
I’d also get fired for raping Brad…..lol

PsL= you are so funny!!! I’m cracking up over here!!! yeah me too!!!
May 18th, 2007 at 12:27 pm
psl: i didn’t think of them getting depressed for other reasons. lol

Do you think they have a wet nurse on staff? I really wouldn’t be surprised if they did.
May 18th, 2007 at 3:28 pm
Is this one of those stupid British press stories? Slough of Depression…wtf is that all about?

seriously who believes this shit?

doesn’t even make sense - goofy story here plus I’ve read articles on them where the nannies were pictured and named - the source must be desperate to find a Ange/brad story of the day
