Brangelina Goes to J-Lo’s Favorite Store For Their Twins Nursery

June 12, 2008 by Cherie  

First it was the war over baby photos, now the comparisons about what each celeb has spent on their kid’s nursery.

Eeesh.

TMZ says Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are spending a whopping $140,000 on their twins nursery. And where are they shopping? Petit Tresor, the very same shop that J-Lo used to decorate Max and Emme’s nursery. The people at Petit Tresor have to be pretty happy with all the publiciy they’re getting these days, hey?

TMZ also compares Brad and Angie’s splurge to J-Lo and Marc’s $50,000. Personally, I’m not sure I believe any of these dollar figures. But hey, if I had the money I’d blow it on my kids, too. So who could blame them?

Angelina’s Twins Up the Baby Bidding War

June 5, 2008 by Cherie  

So the baby bidding war continues.

First it was Christina Aguilera who received $1.5 million for the first picture of her son, Max.

Then J-Lo got $6 million for photos of her twins, Max and Emme.

Now Angelina Jolie is being offered $15 million for photos of her twins.

Apparently there’s a bidding war between People and OK!. And that’s just for now. Will it go higher?

It could, especially given the fact that everyone is dying to see the new babies who will undoubtedly be as cute as little Shiloh.

I’ve written about this subject in the past, and I’m pretty neutral on celebs getting money for baby photos. But I can’t imagine that news organizations like People and OK! will really make any money on the deal if they are doling out such a large amount. I think like all trends, this one will probably fade away.

Did J-Lo Pimp Out Her Babies?

In a new interview R&B Singer Usher says “”In no way would I ever pimp out my child for money,” in response to the question of accepting money to pose with his five-month-old son, Usher Raymond V.

Usher will pose with his tot on the cover of Essence Magazine in June. He is not receiving any money from this.

On one hand, I think the celebs have every right to protect their kids from a media circus. Usher would not have had the paparazzi that people like Angelina Jolie or even J-Lo had. Celebs that pose with their kids often cut off the high price the media puts on the heads of their children. But people like to judge each other, especially when it comes to parenting. I don’t have a problem with it, because I, like everyone else, enjoy seeing the pictures.

So what do you think?

Upping the Baby Picture Ante

April 4, 2008 by Cherie  

The baby picture wars continue….. sigh…..

Rumors said J-Lo got about $6 million for pictures of her, hubby Marc Anthony and the twins, and now one source claims Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt will probably get between $8-10 million for pictures of their next delivery (also rumored to be twins.)

Last go ’round Ang and Brad donated the money they got for baby Shiloh to charity. I’d imagine they would do this again with the new baby (or babies.)

Jennifer Lopez has not said what she’ll do with the money. Other celebs have kept their money, while some have donated part of it and kept the rest. Jen has taken some heat for not saying what she’ll do with the money.

What do you think?

All the Twins in Hollywood

March 23, 2008 by Cherie  

We know celebs like to top each other. But this is ridiculous!

We’re talking about the TWIN TREND here, of course, and J-Lo may have been at the front of it all. Then again, isn’t she always?

But Jen isn’t the only celeb to have twins. Recently it makes me wonder what’s in the Hollywood water. For instance, the Star is reporting that Lisa Marie Presley is the latest celeb to be preggers with twins.

Angelina Jolie is rumored to be with twins:

and so is Jessica Alba.

Marcia Cross recently had a twosome, as did Nancy Grace, and soccer star Mia Hamm.

So why all the double births? Like many women who struggle to get pregnant, Jennifer Lopez is rumored to have had fertility treatments, which could account for a double birth.

But clearly, having twins has become the latest Hollywood “trend.” It’s not one everyone can (or should) jump on, but it’s definitely a curious thing to have happen all of a sudden.

And while having twins is normally a very happy occassion, there are times when things turn dark. After all, having twins is a bit more risky than delivering one baby alone. Dennis Quaid and his wife recently had twins (and have been very public about suing the hospital where they administered an overdose of medication to the newborns), and I just caught an incredibly sad story about Sherri Shepherd’s recent miscarriage. She, also, was pregnant with twins.
