Uh oh! Despite the fact that both magazines paid millions and millions of dollars for "exclusive" rights to photographs of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's new set of twins, the Los Angeles Times thinks Hello's spread has bested People's in terms of cuteness and intimacy.

Ben Widdicombe initially asked the question, "Which struggling new glossy is so out of money that staffers are having to pay for photos on personal credit cards?" Intriguing but daunting—so many pieces of shit from which to choose. But have no fear, brother blog Jossip narrows it down for you. Could it be Life & Style? Hello? And don't forget about the dark horse: OK!.

Go here to vote, and then do us a favor and start buying those magazines—New York gets ugly when media people have to go too long without Blackberrys and extravagant vacations.

Riiight, about those photos. Well, as per Time, Inc.'s lovely legal department's request, we've gone ahead and removed the Shiloh pictures from this site. Lucky for you they are now available for purchase anywhere magazines are sold. So get off your lazy ass and buy People (that way maybe they'll be less angry at us).

Aaaaaaaaaawwwwwww[ovaries melting]wwwww, you could tell me that he just raped my mother (if you read this, mom, I swear I'm joking) and I wouldn't care.

I know, I know, it's a bit All Shiloh All The Time, but it will be over soon, promise.

I stand by my statement that your grandchildren would rather have the glossy photos from People Magazine which comes out tomorrow than your crappy print-outs from these Hello Magazine scans, but until you have the physical versions to dissect with your eyes, you have to settle for this.

Maddox was too cool for this shoot (he probably had some hot Namibian chicks to bang, or ride bike with, whatever), but Zahara is such an adorable squish-face I can hardly stand it. I don't want my own children, I just want these ones to to look at sometimes. Not when they do baby things, just when they are innocent and angelic like this.

I have nothing cynical to say. They're so precious I just vomited in my mouth a little.

No more Shiloh for now. This picture has been removed as per the copyright holders request. We are happy to comply. Now you'll just have to wait until the end of the week to pick up your glossy version of the pics. Admit it, it's easier to save them for your grandkids that way.

Well, here she is: Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt. Is't she thrilling? It's okay, this isn't actually your friend's baby so you don't have to pretend that she is more exciting and beautiful than any other baby in the world. A baby is a baby is a baby as far as I can tell, and none of them really do anything cool for at least a year or so, right?

After reporting yesterday that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie sold their photos to Getty with all proceeds going to charity, Getty immediately flipped the sale and decided where to publish them usuing a delightfully undercover bidding war. The morning Page Six wrote:

All the weekly magazine editors were summoned to the offices of the Getty photo agency at Canal and Varick late Saturday night. "We were sequestered into separate and un-air-conditioned offices," said one. "The photos were shown to us around 10 p.m. to midnight, and then we had to submit bids by 6 a.m. Sunday morning. No one got any sleep at all, as it was a manic game of phone-tag to top each other's bids. I'm convinced it was Brangie's revenge on the weekly magazines." The pictures went to People for $4.1 million.

Well, apparently there was some false intel along the line. You enjoy this while I scour the internet for the rest of the photos. Maybe if you blow it up big enough you can see some messiah drool.

Disclaimer: While Hello does have the rights to these photos, I'm only fairly sure this is real.

Update: Apparently Page Six wasn't so wrong after all. Getty, those sneaky bastards, sold the US rights to People and the UK rights to Hello, ensuring double the profits. In any event, I'm sure that come publication time, our greedy little eyes will be able to see the photos everywhere we go.
