We’re Turning on Mama Jolie!

It’s official. The Mama Jolie roller coast has reached its pinnacle and now it must swoop down into darkness. Why says so? Why US Weekly does! Page Six (ty nine) says:

Sources say Us Weekly, Star and other celebrity weeklies are so fed up with getting scooped by People, they’ve turned on Jolie and Brad Pitt with a vengeance.

I agree. Fuck People Mag right in their ear. If I ever see one of those bastards on the street I will be on them like a hurricane of nails and teeth. And elbows. Anywhoo, all of this comes on the fall-out from the notion that Jolie might adopt another kid, this time from Chad. Here’s why:

Jolie herself recently said, “Should you balance the races, so there’s another African person in the house for Zahara, after another Asian person in the house for Mad? We think so.”

Umm… what? No seriously, what does that even mean? Are all African people like each other, and thus relate better to other people who look like them? To me this flies in the face of everything Jolie was trying to do, if Asians now need be purchased in pairs it sort of defeats this whole “one world” theme she’s jockeying for.

I rarely go after Jolie, but that’s a dumb quote. I hope someone made that up.

  • Good point, but unfortunately in America, there’s no such thing as colorblindness of the racial sort. Her heart’s in the right place, but it would seem wiser to get a black nanny so that someone with skills can be both a role model (big sister sort of way) and someone who can do her hair. No PC bleatings can step to the fact that a black girl’s hair requires experience and should NOT be half-assed.

  • The quote is not made up. I heard her say something like that on Good Morning America to Diane Sawyer… I think it was back when she was promoting the Good Sherpard.

  • i think who ever writtes things after she says them puts their own spin to make what she says more controversial.

  • I’m black and I think that what she said is just practical. You would feel left out and like the odd person, if you looked different than everyone around you. It is not always just a race thing. I was listening to a radio show and the woman said she had adopted a girl from Romania and she had dark hair and dark eyes and often said that she wasn’t pretty because she didn’t look like the rest of her family who were blond and blue eyed. Kids are perceptive and you have to be realistic about the world you live in.
