Brangelina house-hunting again
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie who already own properties in Los Angeles and Buckinghamshire, are searching for a luxury home in the South of France to bring up their brood.
Brad, 43, and 32-year-old Angelina have hired a professional 'property finder' to help locate the perfect family home for them and have already looked at places in Cannes and St Tropez.
Unfortunately, though, their approach to property-finding hasn't always gone down well with the locals.
A source told DailyMail:
"They hired a helicopter for the day to look at one fabulous pad they were particularly interested in."
"They landed in a nearby field and sent one of their team to ask if Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie could take a look around.
"But the French owner thought it was arrogant that they just turned up and was a little put out about it."

Pitt dismissed from jury duty
Brad Pitt has been dismissed from jury duty, but not before the movie superstar fronted court in the US to do his civil service.
The Ocean's 13 star had been called as a juror in a DUI case, but he was excused overnight after the defendant pleaded "no contest".
Pitt and his fellow jurors were set to enter the US courtroom when a lawyer alerted the judge to a plea agreement, reported www.TMZ.com

Shiloh named after Jolie's brother
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt named their baby daughter after the actress' brother James Haven Voight, Voight has revealed.
Voight claims he was originally given Shiloh -- which means "messiah" or "peaceful one" -- as a middle name by his and Jolie's parents Jon Voight and Marcheline Bertrand, before they switched it at the last minute.
The 33-year-old actor tells Grazia magazine:
"At the last second, my parents gave me Haven instead.
"So it was very cool when Brad and Angie came to me and said: 'We're thinking of names and our favorite is Shiloh. We know that was your original name, so would that be OK?'.
"I was almost in tears -- I was so honored."
Haven says the couple are planning a massive brood of adopted children.
Haven claims Jolie and Pitt are blissfully happy with baby Shiloh and her adopted siblings Maddox, Zahara and Pax -- and both want to carry on adding to their family.
He says Pitt has grown into his role as a father, suggesting the superstar was reluctant at first. Haven tells Grazia magazine:
"He has changed so much. He's completely involved, he loves the children and is terrific with them.
"There is no limit on the children she and Brad are adopting. It could be scores. I've never heard an end number in their conversations."

Angelina is ready to adopt again
Angelina Jolie is planning to adopt for the fourth time, it has been claimed.
The actress - who recently adopted Vietnamese son Pax Thien, and also has a Cambodian son Maddox and Ethiopian daughter Zahara - reportedly wants to adopt a girl from Chad to "balance the family."
A source discussing Angelina's family - which also consists of Cambodian son Maddox, Ethiopian daughter Zahara and Angelina's natural daughter Shiloh with lover Brad Pitt - said: "Angelina and Brad want to make sure Zahara doesn't feel alienated as the only black face in their family.

"She feels the children need a balance of faces in their life."
Angelina is said to have fallen in love with a one-year-old girl from Oure Cassoni and asked her lawyers to begin the adoption process.
The source added to Britain's News of the World newspaper: "She is hoping to have her daughter home by the summer."
Angelina, 31, recently hinted that she wanted to have a balanced family.
She 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.
"Shiloh has Brad and me to look at."

Jolie's fast track adoption
Angelina Jolie is set to adopt a Vietnamese boy in May after being fast-tracked through the system, the nation's top adoption official said today.
The process is being speeded up because Jolie had already chosen the child on a previous visit to an orphanage on the outskirts of the southern business hub of Ho Chi Minh City, the official said.
Vu Duc Long, the head of the justice ministry's international child adoption department in Hanoi said:
"She might receive her adoptive child in three months, one month earlier than the normal timeframe for an adoption," said Vu Duc Long, the head of the justice ministry's international child adoption department in Hanoi.
"He is between four and five and now stays at the Tam Binh orphanage."
Jolie filed the first application papers three months ago.
During last November's Thanksgiving holiday, Jolie and her partner, fellow screen idol Brad Pitt, travelled to Ho Chi Minh, the communist state's largest city, and spent several hours playing with children in the orphanage.
Some local media reports earlier said the Hollywood power couple, who were photographed riding a motorcycle through the streets of the former Saigon, had asked for detailed information about a boy there.
An application sent by Jolie to Hanoi through a US agency last week has now been approved by Vietnam's top adoption agency and transferred to Ho Chi Minh City's justice department, Mr Long said.
Under Vietnamese regulations, the file will now need another seal from the city's justice department before being sent to the orphanage.
Jolie and Pitt already have a baby daughter, Shiloh, born last May, as well as adopted children Maddox, five, from Cambodia, and Zahara, two, who is from Ethiopia.

Brad and Angelina: Vietnam adoption
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have filed paperwork to adopt a boy from Vietnam, according to press reports.
The pair have three children -- Maddox, 5, Zahara, 2, and Shiloh, 9 months.
A source in Vietnam tells US Weekly the couple have filed papers with the U.S. Citizenship and Immigration services to adopt a boy from the Tam Binh orphanage in Ho Chi Minh City, which they visited in November.
The pair have long been vocal about their desire to raise more international children.
Their son Maddox was born in Cambodia, while daughter Zahara was born in Ethiopia.
Jolie said recently, "If we're going to have 10 kids, we'd like to raise them while we're young."

Brad and Angelina move to New Orleans
Angelina Jolie tells Us Weekly that she and Brad Pitt have moved their three children, Maddox,5, Zahara, 2, and 7-month-old Shiloh, to New Orleans.
“We love it there,” Jolie said at the Golden Globe Awards after confirming the move. “The kids are going to go to school there. We're really looking forward to it.”
On January 12, just a day after moving to The Big Easy, Jolie was already mixing with the locals at restaurant Angeli on Decatur.
Diner Jorge Palacios said that the star – clad in an ivory dress over white pants – blended right in: “No one at my table believed me when I told them it was her.” And that’s just what she wants.
While Pitt works (he’s filming The Curious Case of Benjamin Button locally), sources say Jolie, 31, plans on being a low-key mom in the $3.5 million, six-bedroom, four-and-a-half bath mansion the pair recently purchased (their fourth house) in the French Quarter.
“She’s interested in befriending normal moms so she can do things with the kids,” says a Jolie source.
And who can forget their humanitarian efforts? “Angelina has asked for places she can do charity work,” says the source, who adds that Jolie had inquired about a school for disadvantaged youth. And construction is set to start this month on the 20 environment-friendly homes Pitt, 43, jointly commissioned with Global Green USA.
The couple also hope to raise awareness for the region, which was devastated by Hurricane Katrina. Says the source, “They think it is important to be there right now.”

Brangelina's trip to Fallingwater
Angeline Jolie has given Brad Pitt a gift of trip down Fallingwater for his birthday, The Pittsburgh Channel reports.
The workers at Frank Lloyd Wright's Fallingwater got quite a surprise Thursday afternoon when Brad Pitt and Angelia Jolie showed up for a tour of the estate.
According to a spokesman for Fallingwater, Pitt and Jolie arrived just before 3 p.m. for the tour.
Fallingwater's curator of education Cara Armstrong said:
"Brad said he had wanted to experience Fallingwater ever since he took an architectural history course in college. He and I talked quite a bit about design and art. He was incredibly well-informed about architecture."
"Brad said he had a visual sense of Fallingwater but experiencing it in person, hearing the sound of the waterfall cascading under the house and smelling the wood from the fireplace was better than anything he could have imagined."
After the tour, Jolie had arranged to have champagne and caviar sent in, which the couple shared in a private birthday celebration in Fallingwater's living room. Afterward, they invited the staff to join them and encouraged them to take the "snacks" home.
Arrangements for the visit began about a week before Thanksgiving when staff at Fallingwater received a call from Jolie's personal assistant in Asia.

Angelina Jolie is adopting an Indian baby
Sources say Angeline Jolie and Brad Pitt have already applied to adopt a tot from an Indian orphanage.
The source told US magazine Globe:
"They hope to be able to bring the child home by Christmas.
"Brad would prefer a boy no older than 18 months to even out the sexes but Angie has told him she can't guarantee she won't fall in love with a little girl."
"Whichever they end up with, they'd like to name the child India to honour its homeland." The pair are rumoured to have visited the Priva Darshini orphanage in the last month.
Angelina's first child, five-year-old Maddox, was adopted from a Cambodian orphanage in 2002. And last year she adopted an Ethiopian baby girl - Zahara Marley Jolie - orphaned by AIDS, now 22-months-old.
She and actor Brad Pitt, 42, had a daughter together, baby Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt, in May 2006. Angelina, 31, has declared that she'd like kiddies from all over the world.
She has said: "I want to create a rainbow family. That's children of different religions and cultures from different countries."
"I believe I'm meant to find my children in the world and not necessarily have them genetically."
However it was said that the couple were in disagreement over whether they should adopt again, with Pitt wanting to concentrate on the children they have.
Miss Jolie is currently in India with Pitt filming her latest movie A Mighty Heart, about the murder of U.S journalist Daniel Pearl.

Jolie, Pitt give $2 million to humanitarian groups
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are giving gifts of $1 million each to two humanitarian organizations, an adviser to the couple said Wednesday.
The recipients are Global Action for Children and Medecins sans Frontieres/
Doctors Without Borders.
"In the most troubled parts of the world — places that much of the world has abandoned — MSF is always there," said Jolie in a statement issued by Trevor Neilson, the couple's philanthropic and political adviser. "I have seen these brave men and women working in war zones and horrific conditions and I deeply admire them."
Jennifer Delaney, U.S. director for Global Action for Children, expressed her thanks for the gift from the Jolie-Pitt Foundation.
"Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt not only care, but more important, are taking concrete action to address the fact that there will be 20 million children orphaned by AIDS by 2010, and millions more orphaned by tuberculosis, malaria and conflict or whose parents are sick and dying," she said.

Brad Pitt to star in M:I IV
Brad Pitt is reportedly being lined up to replace Tom Cruise in 'Mission: Impossible IV'.
Tom was recently dropped by Paramount Studios dropped because of his "unacceptable conduct" in public and the lacklustre box office takings of the third film in the franchise.
Now it seems bosses are set to turn to Brad to rescue the ailing franchise.
One industry insider told Britain's London Light newspaper:
"'Mission: Impossible IV' will not include Tom's character, agent Ethan Hunt.
"They're considering a brief mention, saying Hunt retired to live a safe life with his new wife.
"They're set on Brad taking over as a gutsy new head operative who puts together his own unique team of specialists."
Studios bosses are allegedly considering offering Brad over £21 million to sign up for the fourth film, the single biggest fee ever paid to an actor for one film.
The actor is no stranger to the genre having already had big screen success in a number of action movies, including 'Mrs and Mrs Smith' and 'Spy Game' opposite Robert Redford.
Brad - who has two adopted children, Maddox, five, and 18-month-old Zahara, and one biological daughter, four-month-old Shiloh Nouvel, with partner Angelina Jolie - is currently filming the latest addition in another successful franchise, 'Ocean's Thirteen', in Los Angeles.

Brad and Angelina are growing apart
They are often refered to as the sexiest couple in Hollywood, but family and friends are afraid that Brad and Angelina will no longer be 'Brangelina' for all that much longer.
Hollywood's do-gooder duo have reportedly not been keen on the constant fights and bouts that have been putting an increasing amount of strain on their relationship, reports Zee News.
The pillow-lipped beauty is said to be cracking under the pressure of not only post-natal depression, but also the stress induced by her mother's illness, not to mention the constant media attention on them and their brood, according to news.com.au.
Angelina Jolie recently indicated that she desired to escape the media circus that surrounds her, and spend some 'quality' time travelling in Africa while teaching her children about being 'citizens of the world' - an idea Brad has not been real happy with.
A pal is quoted by the British Daily Mail:
My concern is that Angelina thinks Brad is completely on the same page and wants the same things, and I don't think he does. There's no doubt he is in love with her, but she carries a lot of baggage.
She is most definitely not normal and that's one of the appealing things about her, but I think it takes someone pretty special as a partner to be able to deal with that. I think she just wants to run away.

Angelina wants Jen's stuff OUT
Angelina Jolie has allegedly demanded Brad Pitt clears all traces of ex-wife Jennifer Aniston from his Malibu mansion.
The Tomb Raider actress is determined to remove all reminders of Jennifer from the house as she and Brad settle in with their new baby daughter, Shiloh Nouvel, and the couple's adopted children, Maddox, four, and 16-month-old Zahara.
It means the Troy star will have to ditch his pricey furniture and various items he and Jennifer bought during their five-year marriage.
A source told Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper: "Now they're a family, Angelina wants to make the home their own.
"The pieces Brad collected with Jen were among the first to go. Then the child-unfriendly stuff was ditched - all the pointy corners and sharp edges."

Angelina Jolie is not happy about Brad Pitt's decision to take helicopter flying instruction. Brad, however, disregarding her warnings 'copters are more dangerous has booked a series of 12 lessons with a California flight instructor.
Meanwhile, they've decided to split their residency between California, France and probably Namibia, where the government is so pleased with their decision to buy property (and probably adopt a local child), it's guaranteeing them continued privacy from paparazzi whenever they return.
Their new daughter Shiloh is thriving and Brad's next big hope is for a son. But Angelina's told him: "Wait a minute, I'm getting back to my career, and a third adoption comes before a second pregnancy."

The child was born on May 27, at night, in the African country of Namibia.
The new parents, along with kids Maddox, 4, and Zahara, 1, have been staying at a luxury resort in Namibia since April, where their personal security team and Namibian police have shielded them from paparazzi.
Last week, the Namibian government said foreign journalists wishing to cover the birth must have written permission from Pitt and Jolie to enter the country and obtain a work permit.

But he described Brad and Ang as "good people, peace-minded and ready to help".
