Worlds Apart

Though she salvaged both her sons from poor Asian nations once under the buttery, oppressive thumb of French colonialists, Angelina Jolie apparently still maintains a sense of pride in her Gallic heritage.

Not only have she and boyfriend Brad Pitt recently purchased a chateau in the south of France and immersed all of their children in French language studies, but rumor has it that the wispy actress is planning on giving birth to her new child (only one, now) in the snooty, truffle-rich nation.

Now to take bets on how soon the Jolie-Pitt kiddies think Amharic, Khmer and Vietnamese are spices.

    Amharic, Khmer and Vietnamese? I thought those were the names the Jolie-Pitts were considering for the new wee bebe.

    Apparently, it is because her mother was French Canadian. If that is true, they are more ridiculous than I believed them to be, since being French Canadian and being from France are two completely different things. I guess Quebec isn't 'global' enough. So stupid.

    Right, so because I'm from German ancestors, my children should be born in Germany. God, I love how her mind works. She's become so in love with her own publicity. And I hope this new baby isn't made to feel like she is less important because she was born to a life of privilege.

    Maybe she's going for France's free post-childbirth vaginal/uterine therapy.

    Angelina Jolie's mother grew up four doors down from me in a suburb of Chicago, where her parents owned a bowling alley. She was not French, French-Canadian, or Native American.

    I'd like to know what Cord thinks she should do considering she can do no right by him.

    Oh, no need to apologize. It's just funny that Marsha Bertrand from a blue-collar neighborhood somehow became Marceline Bertrand, a French actress. Or that her parents owned a "nightclub" in Chicago. I believe it is mostly the press not doing their homework. I don't think Angelina has ever pretended her mom came from more glorious circumstances than she did.

    Cord, who previously discussed his vexation with people thinking Paris Hilton represents all Americans, is now blackening an entire country of people because of a small groups of depraved French colonialists. At least Paris Hilton is current, man. Also, the history of all countries is violent.
    And just because her kids have Asian blood, does not mean they should grow up in an Asian environment. After all, they are individuals. Hopefully, they do know Amharic, Khmer and Vietnamese are not spices because that would mean they are uneducated.

    ilnazhad, Cord (what kind of a stupid name is that, by the way?) can't help it, he's a compulsive french basher. The well known superiority complex of the obese mass murderers the Yankees are, I suppose.

    Isn't it funny how these celebrity women never seem to give birth naturally??? It's always stated that problems during childbirth prevented a natural birth. I say bollocks to that. Still they are too posh to push. When will they get over themselves?

    I'm sick of the jolie-pitts full stop. Brad Pitt is so overrated anyway. Johnny Depp is far sexier and much more talented. Unlike Brad, he is not afraid to do more challenging and less box-office style roles. They should take their pretty little selves out of the spotlight - and they should take the Beckhams with them. The money all these celebrities make is ridiculous. I get sweet f a per month and I work my ass off. I earn £1200 per month and I give £50 of it to charity. A 'celeb' has millions in the bank and gives one million to charity, and they're a 'saint.' It's like me having £200 in the bank and giving £1 to charity.
