The Chosen Two Cometh! World Gets on With Life Without Pregnant Brangelina
Posted by Defamer Hollywood at 2:25 AM on July 15, 2008
Congratulations this morning to Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, the latter of whose womb has reportedly yielded its blobby, twinsy bounty at last. We think. It's official, isn't it? The Chosen Two are here? After InTouch called it Saturday afternoon, Extra overrode it an hour later and the rest of the world simply hedged somewhere in between until Jolie's exhausted doctor fled the delivery room craving a stiff drink, we can finally, confidently move on to the postgame show. Select reactions, including an overjoyed grandfather, and a French bureaucrat with paperwork, after the jump:
—The mayor of Nice, Christian Estrosi, went before the cameras Saturday evening with Knox Leon's birth certificate; officially carved from Jolie's belly at 6:27 p.m., he was one minute older than little sis Vivienne Marcheline.
—Jon Voight is excited, even if he apparently had to pass along his grandfatherly love through second-rate gossip conduit Pat O'Brien and has yet to be summoned to his daughter's bedside. But! "If I were called today, I'd be there," he added.
—And seriously, Jolie would have called, except she and Pitt were having too much fun in the delivery room. No, really, said Dr. Michael Sussman: "It was an epidural, so [Angelina] was awake and speaking and laughing. They were happy. ... Saturday was a great day for us all."
—First photos of the blobs could fetch up to $20 million. We don't want to talk about it.
—Can't stand to live in a world without a pregnant Brangelina? US Weekly has just the remedy: The official "Angelina's Bump Days" memorial slideshow. And yes, Mary Hart — it's real. Or was, anyway.

Does Knox mean darkness? Lights out? Doomsday?

Somebody finally named a kid after President Polk. It's about time.

The media has gotten so obnoxious with this, it's starting to resemble Steve Martin's reaction in The Jerk, when the new telephone books came out.

I'm inclined to start a betting pool on how old they'll be the first time they make out on a red carpet.

The kids will go home to shiny, dangerous cribs, while Angelina will pretend to relax on that slab Brad calls a couch.

If history does in fact repeat itself, we have only to review Romulus and Remus or Cain and Abel to see how this ends...

You know this means that at the Adopteds v. Bloods rumble the split will be 3-3. "They say blades; we say blades..."

Why do all the boy's names end in X? I sense a Mac OS X tie-in to further pad the Jolie-Pitt's nest egg. Way to further prostitute out les enfants, kids.

little known fact; LL Cool J was actually in the room with the happy couple and unwittingly provided the male twin with his new name when, upon crowning, LL quipped "Momma said "Knox, you out"

Celebrity babies depress me.
They only grow up to be huge assholes.
Someone has turned on a big clock and we have but to countdown 16 years til we're dealing with these beautiful, self righteous jerks.

That's right, all blood sucking mockery at the proper time, we have a long road ahead...

So, let me get this straight. The bio kids get family names handed down, while they pull the adoptees names out of a hat?
