Jolie and Pitt to tie the knot?

Speculation is mounting that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are to get hitched after initial reluctance to do so.

Jolie has apparently now said she may look to make Pitt her husband if it helps their future adoption plans. "Brad and I aren't married, so as a technically single woman there are lots of countries I can't adopt from. And as a technically single man, most countries wouldn't allow Brad to adopt at all," Jolie told Now magazine.

Movie star Jolie also revealed that there is some pressure on her and Pitt in balancing work with raising a family. She added: "Brad and I are trying to balance our lives so that we're there for our kids and can also make sure we're fulfilled as people."

Angelina Jolie's acting U-turn

Angelina Jolie, who raises six children with partner Brad Pitt, planned to give up acting to be a full-time mother.

Angelina Jolie planned to give up acting.

The actress, who recently gave birth to twins Knox and Vivienne, revealed partner Brad Pitt persuaded her to return to work rather than caring full-time for their six children.

She said: "We had a big discussion about whether I should go back to work at all, but Brad said it was a part of me as well and it would be alright, so we're trying to balance it out."

Despite admitting she wants to expand her family further, 33-year-old Angelina admitted having such a large family does cause problems - because she and Brad, 44, struggle to get time alone.

She explained: "Even if we lock our door the children come knocking.

"We often try to have a bath alone together at the end of the night and sit and talk, but they hear the water and want to jump in.

"But it's fun and lovely - the thing about having six is once you get past three or four, it's just so crazy anyway that it's just more chaos and that's OK."

The actress - who says her daily routine starts at 4.30am - also spoke of her delight at how well the couple's other children have welcomed the twins into the family.

She added to Britain's Daily Mirror newspaper: "It's so much fun but it's very hard work. The kids are forming beautiful friendships. They're teammates and they're very loving to the babies."

Meanwhile, Angelina revealed her latest tattoos at the premiere of her new movie, 'The Changeling', in New York this weekend.

The actress already had the latitude and longitude of where each of her children - adopted trio Maddox, seven, Pax, four, and Zahara three, and biological daughter Shiloh, two - were born and has had the coordinates of her twins' French birthplace added.

Angelina Jolie's French film

Angelina Jolie, who is learning French, has revealed she would be "interested" in starring in a French movie.

Angelina Jolie would be "interested" in starring in a French movie.

The 33-year-old actress - whose late mother Marcheline Bertrand was of French-Canadian descent - has been learning the complicated language for the past two years, and is keen to display her skills on the big screen.

When asked if she would consider starring in a European movie, Angelina said: "No one has asked me yet. It would really interest me - there are more and more great films coming out of Europe and other cultures.

"When I can really speak the language, maybe I'll try out for a French film in a few years."

Despite being an actress, Angelina - who recently welcomed twins Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline with partner Brad Pitt into the world -hates watching films.

She added to German magazine Focus: "I find it difficult to sit still for two hours. I would rather read something or learn something or travel to experience something new."

Angelina Jolie's orphan allowance

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are eligible for around $2,500 in benefits for their six children, French authorities have confirmed.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are eligible for around $2,500 in child benefits.

Brad registered his family at Brignoles town hall just after they moved to the south of France, meaning the couple are eligible for an "orphan allowance" of $508.97 for each of their three adopted children, Maddox, seven, Pax, four, and three-year-old Zahara.

Brad and Angelina could also claim a "nanny payment" of $975.84 a month for new twins Knox and Vivienne and biological daughter Shiloh, two.

A spokesperson for Brignoles council told People magazine: "We do not discuss individual benefits cases. But we can confirm that all resident local families with young children are eligible for certain benefits."

It is not believed the couple will accept the payments.

Meanwhile, it has been reported Brad, 44, has photographed his family for a magazine cover.

Angelina, 33, Brad and their children are to appear on the cover of W magazine in November in pictures taken at their French home by the 'Fight Club' actor.

The couple previously posed together in the July 2005 issue of the magazine for a shoot entitled 'Domestic Bliss', which featured them in a series of poses as a married couple to promote their movie 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith'.

Angelina Jolie's Catwoman advice

Angelina Jolie has been asking adult movie star Tera Patrick for advice on how to play Catwoman, it has been claimed.

Angelina Jolie has been asking adult movie star Tera Patrick for advice on playing Catwoman.

The 33-year-old actress - who gave birth to twins Vivienne Marcheline and Knox Leon last month - is said to be good friends with the busty brunette, and believes she can offer an insight into portraying the feline villain in the next Batman movie.

A source told the New York Post newspaper: "Tera and Angelina are friends and keep in touch via e-mail. They have a girl-talk thing going. After seeing reports that she'll land the lead role, Angelina asked Tera what she thought. Tera had such insights into the role that Angelina cracked, 'You should do it!' "

Since welcoming the twins, her fifth and sixth children with partner Brad Pitt, into the world last month, Angelina has been approached to star in a variety of movies including 'The Thomas Crown Affair 2' alongside Pierce Brosnan - a role for which movie bosses want her to put on weight.

The 'Wanted' star is also said to be the hot favourite to star in 'Edwin A. Salt', the espionage thriller Tom Cruise reportedly dropped out of after arguing with producers over his salary.

Angelina Jolie's Chinese baby

'Wanted' actress Angelina Jolie is considering adopting a child orphaned in China's recent earthquake.

Angelina Jolie is considering adopting another child.

The 'Wanted' actress - who gave birth to twins Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline last month - was so affected by footage of the recent earthquake in China she is contemplating giving a home to a child orphaned in the natural disaster.

A source told Britain's Star magazine: "Angelina is devastated over the earthquake that occurred in China in May. She has been in constant touch with relief workers as part of her UN involvement, and even got her hands on photos of a few orphaned kids.

"She's made overtures offering a home to one earthquake orphan, or even two if they are siblings."

As well as the twins, Angelina and her partner Brad Pitt also have three adopted children Zahara, three, seven-year-old Maddox and Pax, four, as well as naturally conceived Shiloh, two.

Angelina, 33, recently revealed her newborn babies are keeping her busy, but she is getting plenty of help from the rest of her family.

She said: "It is chaos, but we are managing it and having a wonderful time. Shiloh calls the twins her babies. She and Zahara pick out their clothes, help change and hold them. It's sweet - they are like little mommies."

Non-maternal Angelina Jolie

Mother-of-six Angelina Jolie was not maternal when she was younger, according to her father Jon Voight.

Angelina Jolie was not maternal when she was younger.

Her father Jon Voight - who recently rekindled his relationship with his estranged daughter - admits he is amazed she now has six children because she didn't display mothering instincts as a child.

He told Us Weekly magazine: "You know she wasn't the kind that played with dolls and then all of the sudden she has all of these children.

"She loves kids though. She's very playful. It's wonderful."

Jon also revealed Angelina - who gave birth to twins Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline last month - and her partner Brad Pitt are "over the moon" with the new arrivals.

He added: "The twins are healthy and they're doing well and I'm so happy.

"And of course the parents are really happy and over the moon. It's a wonderful time."

As well as Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline, Brad and Angelina have a two-year-old biological daughter Shiloh, and three adopted children - Maddox, six, four-year-old Pax and three-year-old Zahara.

Angelina Jolie IVF claims

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt conceived their twins Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline through in vitro fertilisation (IVF), it has been claimed.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt reportedly conceived their twins using in vitro fertilisation.

The couple - who welcomed Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline into the world on July 12 - were reportedly so desperate to add to their ever-expanding brood they turned to IVF infertility treatment in a bid to conceive.

A source close to the couple told Us Weekly magazine: "They conceived through in vitro fertilisation. They both desperately wanted more babies soon."

Angelina, 33, only had a one per cent chance of conceiving fraternal twins naturally, but a 25 per cent chance by recipients of the treatment.

The 'Wanted' actress was also keen to have the procedure - which can cost up to $12,000 a time - because she didn't want to have any problems conceiving.

The source added: "She wouldn't have to deal with the stress of trying to get pregnant. They were impatient."

In vitro fertilisation is a procedure where the egg cells are fertilised by sperm outside the woman's womb. The fertilised egg, called a zygote, is then transferred to the patient's uterus.

Angelina and Brad also have three adopted children, Maddox, six, four-year-old Pax, Zahara, three, and two-year-old biological daughter Shiloh.

Angelina Jolie baby 'handful'

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt will have a "handful" with their newborn twins Vivienne Marcheline and Knox Leon, according to the actress' father Jon Voight. Jon thinks the couple - who welcomed their fifth and sixth children into the world in France on Saturday - will find coping with the new family members tough.

He said: "Angie's got a handful. She knows it, too. Twins are a big deal. Even if they're the world's most remarkable sleep oriented, calm children, two kids at the same time is a big deal!

"They're Brad and Angie's babies. There isn't anything more exciting than that. Of course my heart is with them and all my love goes to them. I was very excited."

Meanwhile, Brad is enjoying becoming a father again.

He repeatedly told Mayor Christian Estrosi of Nice, France, the town where Angelina gave birth, "I'm the happiest father ever."

Mayor Estrosi said: "Brad told me we chose one of the best hospitals in the world, one of the best doctors, one of the best medical teams. And also the most beautiful babies in the world."

The babies will remain in Nice's Fondation Lenval hospital with their mother for six or seven days until they gain some weight, according to Angelina's obstetrician Dr. Michael Sussmann.

The 33-year-old actress is expected to leave the medical facility by helicopter in the middle of the night next week to avoid being photographed.

Angelina Jolie is having twins

Just doesn't know when to stop, does she, that one? A single embryo not enough for her? Oh no, it's got to be a multiple birth or nothing. They'll probably be from different parts of the world, too. Jack Black confirmed it (accidentally) in Cannes. Black and Jolie were being interviewed about their latest film, Kung Fu. No sign of Brad, he's probably off somewhere having kittens.

Brad Pitt tells Angelina Jolie 'no more kids'

This is the news that Jennifer Aniston has been patiently waiting for (yes Jen – those voodoo dolls have finally paid you back) as Brad and Angelina are said to be rowing. Obviously we don’t know how regular and aggressive these clashes are or whether they indulge a little of that Mr. and Mrs. Smith fighting action, but we do know that Brad issued Angie with a stern ultimatum last week. So, what nasty thorn could be prickling the bubble of domestic bliss of Hollywood's favourite A-list couple? The size of their family apparently.

Brad is knackered out being a hands-on pa to their brood of children, consisting of Maddox, 6, Pax Thien, 4, Zahara, 3, and Shiloh, 23 months, but Angie is eager to have more kids after giving birth to her twins later this year. Is she going for a world record or just starting her own United Nations?

   

A source confided: "Brad loves being a dad and enjoys nothing more than spending time with the children. But he's constantly tired from working so hard and then mucking in at home. All the sleepless nights are taking their toll."

   

This chatty chum seems quick to stress that Brad is enjoying being a father lest anyone should question his commitment or interest in being a showbiz parent, but it does sounds like the movie hunk is worried that he's not getting his beauty sleep. He does have 12 years on Jolie and so maybe he's feeling those late nights a bit more. Might I suggest some hot milk before bed, Brad?

Megan Fox named FHM's sexiest woman

Lads mag FHM has announced its annual list of the world's sexiest women as voted for by their horny readers and the results make for interesting reading (if you’re into that kind of thing). Transformers star Megan Fox has nabbed the top spot with her first time on the list, proving that boys like girls that run around fighting shiny machines while resembling Angelina Jolie without the children.

 

Other newbies on the list include opera singer Katherine Jenkins, supermodel Agyness Deyn and Prince Harry's lady friend Chelsea Davy. However, at Star Trip we're most excited by the new entry coming in at number 91 – none other than Location, Location, Location (did we say that enough times?) property expert Kirstie Allsopp. Maybe it's that domineering, know-it-all school mistress vibe she's working.

 

The top five was rounded out by last year's number one, Jessica Alba at two, glamour model Keeley Hazell at three and American TV actresses Elisha Cuthbert and the barely-legal Hayden Panettiere at four and five respectively.

 

Established totty such as Angelina Jolie, Scarlett Johansson, Keira Knightley, Hilary Duff and Cheryl Cole made the top ten, but there was no love this time for new-mums Jennifer Lopez and Myleene Klass and Kate Moss.

 

Speaking on the results, FHM's editor-in-chief Anthony Noguera said: "This year, after 9.7 million votes from around the world, [the poll] has never been more authoritative. Megan Fox is a very deserving winner... From out of nowhere, she's captured the hearts - and fantasies - of British men to capture the number one slot."

   

So congratulations to Megan Fox, who is now officially the most wanked over woman in Britain. Oh for such a noble accolade…

Saucy snaps of a teenage Angelina Jolie uncovered

Angelina Jolie has always been known for her wild and saucy ways, after all who else would get married with their groom's name written in blood on their clothes? But that's why we love her - it's all part of her kooky, free-spirit charm. Now, since starting her ever-growing brood with Bradley Pitt and committing herself to humanitarian work we rarely hear of Jolie's past naughty antics – until now…

American magazine In Touch Weekly has gotten hold of some photographs of the star, when only a slip of a girl, aged sixteen. When the rest of us were spotty and awkward in our teens, Jolie looked depressingly stunning, but that is not why the pics are garnering so much media attention. No, it's the lack of clothes that Angie is wearing.

Okay, so there's no nudity in the pics ala Lindsay Lohan, but in the shoot with photographer Sean McCall the budding young actress did pose rather provocatively in her underwear. There is also a video of the shoot, for those in need of further proof – y'know just to verify it's her.

Brad Pitt "despised" wife Jennifer Aniston after six weeks of marriage

For years Angelina Jolie has been blamed for the break-up of Hollywood's former golden couple Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston (not by me Angie!), but new details reveal that all was not well within the marriage well before Brangelina was spawned. Comedian Omid Djalli co-starred with Pitt in the 2000 film Spy Game and has suggested that Brad "despised" Jen after only six short weeks of marriage.

Talking to the Daily Express, Djalli confirmed: "I did a scene with Brad in the back of a taxi and it was only a few days after he had married Jennifer. I chatted to him for hours giving him advice about the three stages of marriage. Stage one is perfection - blind love. Stage two is the difficult stage because you start to despise everything about her. If you can deal with the baggage you can possibly get to stage three - a harmonious marriage."

"After six weeks Brad came up to me", continues the comic "and said, 'I'm definitely in stage two, Omid!' I probably made it go up in flames!"

Of course, this is only one tiny glimpse into the A-lister's romance and subsequent 2005 divorce, but since everyone involved has been so tight-lipped, this nugget of gossip seems pretty juicy. So, what have we learned? That the marriage was doomed from the start. That Jennifer Aniston gets on your tits after no time at all, and that if you want some privacy on intimate matters – don't talk to Omid Djalli.

Angelina Jolie shows off her baby bump

Very much in the shadow of the Oscars, the Independent Spirit Awards were also dished out this weekend. Juno won three awards, but the big news from the Hollywood shindig was the baby-shaped bump shown off by Angelina Jolie. Accompanied by her squeeze Bradley Pitt, the actress, nominated in the Best Female Lead category for A Mighty Heart, wore a long, clingy black dress that revealed that either those pregnancy rumours are true, or that she should have worn some control pants after a sizable lunch.

The gossip is that like Jennifer Lopez and Jessica Alba, the Oscar-winner is housing twins, but a spokesperson for Brangelina has failed to confirm the happy baby news, simply saying "no comment". A source close to the couple that obviously didn't get the memo to stay schtum has been opening up to People magazine, revealing that they are "thrilled to be adding to their brood." Last week four-year-old Pax Thien was officially adopted by the glamourous couple, while they also have Maddox, Zahara and Angie's first biological sprog Shiloh. Pregnancy is the new rehab!

Brad and Angie plan spring wedding

It could be the most glamourous showbiz shindig EVER, or it could be some random weird ritual that involves taking off all your clothes off and dancing to Boney M (you never know in the wacky world of celebdom) but the news is that Brad and Angie are getting married. The A-list actors known as Brangelina are reported to be planning a small, intimate ceremony for later in the spring, with a source close to the couple opening up to the Sunday People. "They have talked about marrying for a while", reveals the insider.

"They have been together three years and sorting things out with Brad's mum is the icing on the cake." Brad's mum Jane was very much rooted in camp Aniston, having become close friends with his ex, but now she has welcomed Angie into the Pitt clan and is keen to help the pair make things official. The ceremony is believed to take place in Santa Monica and would be a touching moment for Hollywood's most stylish parents.

Jennifer Aniston "really upset" by Angelina Jolie's baby rumours

She might be America's sweetheart, but is anyone else fed up with Jennifer Aniston's apparent inability to move on after her 2005 divorce from Brad Pitt? Heartbreak isn’t anything to be flippant about, but since the demise of Hollywood's formerly golden couple, the ex-Friends actress seems to be very good at 'leaking' stories of how devastated she still is to the world's press. Note exhibit A - another report from a close friend that once again reminds us that Jen is the wronged victim and Angelina Jolie, the evil other woman.

The source tells 'Star' magazine that the current reason for Jen's depression is the new baby gossip surrounding Brad and Angie. "Jennifer is putting on a brave face, but inside she is really upset," 'confides' the friend. "She wasn’t prepared for how she’d feel when she saw the pictures of Angelina and her bump. It took her by surprise because it was further proof of just how much Brad has moved on with his life compared to her.”

"Jennifer is desperate for kids. She can feel her biological clock ticking and is scared that she has left it too late. She keeps saying that she wishes she’d had kids with Brad and that, if she had, maybe things would have worked out differently. Splitting up with Brad was the hardest thing Jennifer ever went through, so hopefully she’ll get over this latest hurdle. She’s made of strong stuff.”

Hear, hear. Move on Jen. Put Brangelina behind you, stop using the press to remind us of your personal woes and sniff out a new man to get you knocked up. After all, you'd have thought that with Brad and Angie's commitment to expanding their family that news of more children was hardly a surprise.

Angelina Jolie gains weight and praises

Shocking us all, the Daily Mail have prasied women for gaining weight. Pop the champagne! Congratulations for using some common sense! However, just when you think that they're going to be nice and just like, "Good for her! She looks awesome!" They had to go into talking about her mother's death and how that made her look "gaunt and frail" and that now she seemed happier and had "curves in the right places". Yeah. Better than having curves in all the wrong places.

They show photos of Brad and Angelina cuddling during the Critics Choice ceremony, and while Brad looked incredibly handsome with his grown out hair and facial hair, they had to speculate about his "gray whiskers" that must be a sign of the "stress of being a father-of-four young children clearly taking its' toll". Oh, puhleeze. He's 44 and isn't a sissy about dying his gray like most men in Hollywood.

Get Angelina's youthful skin

Though she's on the wrong side of 35 she still looks like a twenty something looking for a good time, and we want to know how she does it! We do have the answer however, she may not botox , but she is partial to a spot of Glamotox by Rodial  the celebrities version of a needle free injection. This A list cleanser smooths the complexion, reduces fine lines and provides you with your own Brad Pitt. OK, Brad may not come as standard, but when you look this good you can have your pick of the celeb A list.

In the news: J-Lo is pregnant, Angie isn't and Jodie Kidd's career woes

- We all know J-Lo has plenty of junk in her trunk but does the star now have a bun in the oven? The singer/ actress who had been trying to get knocked up for the past few years by hubbie Marc Anthony could even be expecting twins. A source revealed: “the test calculated that she was about 12 weeks pregnant. The way the foetus is lying made it difficult for the doctor to tell if there was more than one baby in there." Let’s hope she’s in the family way and it’s not just some trapped wind. [IMDb]

- If the drugs rumours circulating about Jodie Kidd prove true, the model could be set to lose up to £500,000 in modelling contracts. So far Jodie has kept quiet on her reported cocaine habit – come on girl, let’s hear your side of the story. [the Daily Mail]

- Another Hollywood star keen to get up the duff is Brad Pitt’s lady friend Angelina Jolie. Busy collecting her Benetton collection of children, the Tomb Raider star mistakenly thought she was pregnant, only to be told by her doctor that she is too thin to conceive. Get scoffing those biccies now! [The Sun]

- Now that she’s had to abstain from the booze during her pregnancy, Charlotte Church has realised that she was pretty unpleasant when rat-arsed. Speaking to Cosmo the Welsh diva confessed that pregnancy “made me realise what a bad drunk I was. I would get nasty, aggressive and jealous. Drinking doesn't suit any of the women in my family.” Let’s hope she stays off it once she's given birth. [Now magazine]

Angelina Jolie shares her drug tales

Angelina Jolie has something of a reputation as being a bad girl, albeit before her foray into obsessive "catch em all" child gathering.

She's done nothing to dispel the rumours by sharing with us tales of her former drug use. Oh go on, everyone's at it!

"I’ve done coke, heroin, ecstasy, LSD, everything. But the one that had the worst effect for me was pot. I felt silly and giggly and I hate feeling like that." Marijuana worse than heroin? That's new.

Angelina went on, "I remember taking LSD before I went to Disneyland. I started thinking about Mickey Mouse being a short middle-aged man in a costume who hates life.

"Those drugs can be dangerous if you don’t go into it positively – I gave them up a long time ago.”

There you go kids, it's not big and it's not clever. Unless you're really upbeat about the whole thing.

The Top 5 Celebrity Yummy Mummy’s: We wish they were ours

Celebrity mum's have been under fire for bad behaviour, drunken shenanigans, indeed we at Star Trip even have our top five worst mums  so in relation to this, I thought it's only fair to show you the mothers who make us proud, and who I'd willingly petition for adoption.

Number 1: Angelina Jolie

With her ‘rainbow family’ always close behind her, it’s hard not to have Ms. Jolie at the top of the list. Having adopted 3 children and had one biological child with fiance Brad Pitt, Jolie is still planning to expand her family further, with more biological and adopted children coming soon. Her devotion to her family is hard to overlook- and so is the fact that Brad and Ange collectively donated $6.6million to charily last year. What a woman.

Number 2: Gwen Stefani

After telling the world she was pregnant by shouting “I want you to shout so hard the baby hears it” during a concert in Fort Lauderdale, Florida, despite her press agent stating that recent baby rumours were untrue, Gwen Stefani Gave birth to Kingston Rossdale. Since then, numerous pictures have been printed with little Kingston on his mummy’s hip in cute little outfits, visiting various celebrity events such as the NRJ Music Awards in Cannes, with Gwen never failing to look amazing. Recent pics of Gwen and Kingston on the beach show just what a yummy mummy Gwen is-how does she manage to look that good with a fourteen-month-old little lad to look after?

Number 3: Katie Holmes

She’s Posh’s favourite pal, and we can certainly see why. Since baby Suri was born on 18^th April 2006, she has barley been seen out of her mum’s arms. And we can see why: constantly smiling and giggling, baby Suri is one of the cutest things we’ve ever seen. One of Katie’s fellow Dawson’s Creek stars, Oliver Hudson, said of her, "She almost seems born for motherhood. She's a nurturer. She's got mother qualities a lot of girls her age don't have." Lucky Suri.

Number 4: Gwyneth Paltrow

When the pictures of Apple wearing little pink ear protectors, whilst balanced on her mummy’s hip at Live 8 came out, all the women in the nation breathed a collective “ahhhh”. As her child innocently sucked her thumb, Paltrow beamed at the camera’s, showing off her blatant happiness. When Gwyneth announced why her and hubby Chris Martin had chosen the name Moses for their second bundle of joy, the same noise was heard again. The name Moses was given in reference to the song Martin wrote Gwyneth after their secret weeding in California, which included lyrics “Like Moses has the power of the sea, so you've got power over me..." and refers to the first time the pair met. Could there be any more love in this family?!

Number 5: Liz Hurley

After seeing the pics of Liz and Damien at her recent marriage to Arun Nayar in March this year, we couldn’t help but put her up here. And with her own swim range and entrepreneurial skills, what was stopping us? She looks fantastic in all of the ad’s for her range, and clearly completely dotes on Damian. A true yummy mummy indeed.

[Words: Chloe-Anne Ride]

Angelina Jolie bares all

Angelina Jolie may have taken on her sexiest role ever, and this is from the woman who carried of a shirt and gun combo in Mr and Mrs Smith, as in her new movie  Beowulf she bares all as a seductive water demon. She appears in the £80 million pound film wearing just a  long braid, covered head to toe in gold body paint and hooves instead of feet.

She may be 32, but her body rivals that of many teenagers, with curves in all the right places and boobs Jodie Marsh would envy.  Hopefully once Brad has had an eyeful of Jolie all golden he will stop arguing with her, and talking about getting a bachelor pad of his own. To be fair, Angelina has probably caused a lot of the marriage strife by her constant adoption of children. Clearly she's a woman who knows what she wants, but in a marriage it's kinda nice to consult your husband first.

Cosmetic surgeries of the stars revealed

Air-brushing, good lighting, constant supervision from a make-up artist (how very Victoria Beckham) – there are many ways for celebrities to look better on the front cover of a magazine than how they look first thing in the morning. What is quite depressing is how many of them take it a step further and get cosmetic surgery. Slebs, with the media, present the world with unattainable ideas of beauty and then struggle to meet their own standards. For those of you having a spot break-out today, hate your wonky nose or wish you had fuller lips, never fear as Star Trip is at hand to make you feel better. We present a quite revealing YouTube clip of stars who have had a bit of help from their surgeon, from those you knew had, to those that you didn’t. According to this, no-one in Tinseltown is actually naturally good-looking – score!

Angelina threatens to dump Brad for meeting with ex wife

Angelina Jolie, or John Voigt in a wig as I like to call her, has gone all crazy person on her little Brad. Brad Pitt made the fatal mistake of visiting his ex wife with one of his newly adopted brood. Bad move.

I'll agree that it isn't too cool to think of your bloke visiting his ex, but then this is his ex WIFE and that's no reason to react like Angelina did next, by threatening to dump Brad if he ever did it again. Because that's the sort of rational, loving behaviour that secures a relationship. Brad and ex-wife Jennifer Aniston met for lunch in her Malibu home and he took along his new son, 14-month-old Shiloh. Sounds like the actions of a proud and happy dad to me, Ange.

A source told Star magazine: "Angelina went totally ballistic. She was shouting so hard at Brad that the veins were bulging in her neck. She told him in no uncertain terms that they were finished if he took Shiloh anywhere near Jennifer again." Seems the sour faced Lara Croft isn't so sure of her relationship with Brad. Maybe that's why she keeps luring children into her care, just to take his mind of thinking what a horrific mistake he made in the first place.

Top Five Celeb Tattoo's

Ahh, we can't get enough of our celebrified friends and their glamorous buffed and bronzed bods; now we have the pick pics of their body art. They  kindly adorn themselves with all sorts of motifs so we can  ogle study more acres of their sun bleached skin.  Star Trip brings you the top five tattoos to make  your mouth water.

Number One: Angelina Jolie.

Well who else could really claim the top spot then the delightful Ms Pitt/ Mother Theresa in waiting. If it's not enough that she gives to charity, adopts foreign kids and own one of the hottest bods in th business she also pulls off tattoos with extraordinary pizazz. Look at the way the tiger snakes up the curve of her back, contrasting sexuality with sensuality effortlessly, or how she manages to look both fiery and vulnerable simultaneously. Miaow!

2 : Christina Ricci

She perfectly pull off a delicate spiral on her back which emphasis's her delicate frame and bone structure. Despite being 27 she still looks as fresh faced as a teen and is happily dating long term boyfriend Adam Goldberg.

  3: Megan Fox

This relative newcomer on the celebrity circuit manages to pull off an in-scripted poem on her back with a hella lot of charm. You may recognize her from Hope and Faith or 2 and a half men, but this girl is gonna be big; starring in the summer blockbuster 'Transforrmers'. It's nice to see a tattoo that actually means something, rather than your average squiggle.

4. Sophie Ellis Bextor

OK, this type of heart style tat wouldn't normally get any rating, other than deep in a sailors dungeon, but our Soph manages to take something rather tacky and instill it with some elegance. It's not quite murder on the dancefloor, but she carries herself with enough grace that anything is wearable; proving that it's what you do with it that counts.

5: Nicole Richie

I'm a little torn over this entry; as Nicole manages to own one of the cutest and one of the stupidest tattoo's at the same time. Sweet little angel wings are great, but why has she felt the need to write her surname on the base of her neck? Is she going to forget it? And even if that were the case there'd be some strange head gymnastics needed for her to actually read it. I see a whole separate post formulating here about Celebs who write their own name on their bodies, but that's neither here nor there. No, she can make the grade for now as the wings are really quite cute, and I like the way she uses her dress to display them to best advantage.

Jennifer Aniston and Courtney Cox share Hollywood's least passionate kiss

Oh my god! It's Monica and Rachel from Friends! And they're kissing! It's my every fantasy come true all at once! Or at least it might be if I were a bloke who only fancied non-threatening women and it happened to still be 1996. But it's not. We've moved on, and they can't kiss. Brad Pitt's decision to move on to the pillowy lips of Angelina Jolie is making more and more sense by the day.

Pax Thien Jolie adoption may be contested by drug addict mother

As Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt work to ease Pax Thien into life in the multicultural Brangelina brood comes news from Vietnem that Pax's mother is still alive - and may want him back. But this is no Madonna / David Banda story, oh no. According to Pax's grandfather, "our daughter is a heroin addict and her life has been ruled by drugs. When she finds out a rich movie star has adopted her baby, she will go after her for money and make trouble. She may even try to take the child back."

According to the grandfather, Pax was abandoned in hospital by his heroin-addicted mother Pham Thu Dung as she couldn't afford to pay the $30 his birth had cost. Pham may be able to contest the adoption as she didn't sign any documents (they were signed by the grandparents who couldn't afford to raise him themselves), but it's unlikely any judge would choose a heroin-addled birth mother over a UN ambassador and humanitarian.

Angelina has photogenic new child, nostalgic new film role

As even the monks deep in meditation atop distant mountains will know by now, Angelina Jolie has adopted a Vietnamese boy called Pax Thien, meaning Peaceful Mountain. What you may not know, however, is that the first officially-sanctioned photos of the new addition to the family have been released, in the recent UK edition of Hello! magazine.

While it may seem a bit soon to put the kid on the cover of a magazine, the thinking goes that by handing out official pictures (the reputed £1 million fee is said to have been given straight to charity), the family won't have to deal with as much paparazzi hassle. Good idea, but not sure how well it'll work in practice - Brangelina sell papers.

As well as taking on a new child, Angelina is reported to have taken on a new film role, signing up for Wanted, a film based on a graphic novel. Ange is to play an assassain teaching a new boy the tricks of the trade. Not too much of a stretch after Mr and Mrs Smith, then?

Angelina Jolie arrives in Vietnam

Angelina Jolie has landed in Ho Chi Minh with her son Maddox, and is expected to adopt a 3-year-old Vietnamese boy while she is there. This will be Angelina's third adopted child, and fourth addition to her family with Brad Pitt. She is so good natured, it makes me nauseous at times...but in the good way.

Angelina Jolie's interview with Newsweek

Angelina Jolie recently gave an exclusive interview to Newsweek, explaining how she became involved with the UN, and about her travels to different countries. If you thought she was amazing before, wait until you read this interview. She's incredibly inspiring.

NEWSWEEK: What was your original motivation for working with the UNHCR, for doing these kinds of trips?

Angelina Jolie: I started traveling about seven years ago with film. I would go to places like Cambodia and hear about the many refugees in Thailand and hear about the land mines and hear about the history....I remember sitting up for two days straight and reading everything obsessively. I read about the UNHCR and I realized it was an agency that I didn't know anything about: that they were taking care of 20 million people. ... And I remember realizing that I couldn't understand how I had not known that my whole life.

Brangelina on the streets of New Orleans

We already knew that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were too good looking for their own good; however, now that they have children, they're officially disgusting. Brad and Angelina took Zahara and Shiloh for a walk, wearing matching white shirts, and looking right at home on the streets of New Orleans. Don't they just make you want to vomit? Too...much....cuteness! It's rumoured the Jolie-Pitts will be heading off to Vietnam soon, as they may being adopting another ridiculously cute child.

Angelina and Brad to adopt...again!

Although Shiloh isn't even a year old, and Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie already have two other adopted children, it's apparently time for another!It's reported by the country's top adoption official that Angelina has filed papers to adopt a Vietnamese child. A U.S. adoption agency representing Angelina filed the papers at Vietnam's International Adoption Agency. Speculations first arose when Brangelina made a surprise visit to Vietnam on Thanksgiving, when the y visited the Tam Binh orphanage, which is just outside of Ho Chi Minh City. I just wonder how much money they spend on diapers every month...

Angelina lashes out against Madonna

Santa Angelina has lashed out against Madonna for adopting her son from Malawi, where adoption is illegal,"Madonna knew the situation in Malawi, where he was born. It's a country where there is no real legal framework for adoption. Personally, I prefer to stay on the right side of the law. I would never take a child away from a place where adoption is illegal."

Angelina is known for her work as an Good Will Ambassador for the United Nations, so I can understand why it would bother her that Madonna's sole purpose for going to Malawi, was to adopt a child. Now, yes, Madonna's adoptive son will have a much better quality of life than he would have had back in Africa...but it just seems a touch "monkey see, monkey do" on Madonna's part.

Angelina Jolie protrayed as The Virgin Mary in painting

Look, I think Angelina Jolie is wonderful.  I really respect and admire her for all she has done with the UN, and her philosophies on adoption and children. I do. I've always been on "Team Jolie". However, this painting is ridiculous, and I'm sure Angelina would agree.

This, um, different painting is titled "Blessed Art Thou" and was painted by the artist Katie Kretz. If you're in the States you'll be able to see this lovely piece of art at the Chelsea Galleria booth at the Art Miami Fair this weekend. I can only imagine the crowds, lining up for hours, just so they can kneel and pray in the presence of this painting. Amen.

A Sculpture Is Being Made Of Jennifer Aniston, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt In A Threesome - Bonza!

It seems the artist who made the Britney Spears birth sculpture, and just last week launched the Suri Cruise 'poo' has been busier than we first thought, as he is now working on a sculpture of a 'threesome' featuring Jen, Brad and Angie. The artist, Daniel Edwards, has said it is very X-rated, and will be cast in bronze, just like the most recent Suri Cruise 'poo' artwork. A source told the Daily Star that both Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie are 'horrified by the work and will go to any lengths to prevent it from being exhibited', although Brad Pitt has not commented on it. Presumably because he's spent the time since he heard of it locked in his bathroom, with a sock and some tissues.

Bayraider Blitz: Brangelina painting and Samboralear Saki box

I know Samboralear doesn't really work, but given the fact that Richie and Heather have split up, I didn't think it was worth making up a really good surname conflation. Anyway, before getting to them, how about this oil painting of Brad and Angelina, eh? Bayraider found it for the bargain price of $1,450, and it's a pretty good likeness.

Back to Sambora and Locklear though (Locklora? Smear?). Bayraider's also turned up a Saki box used by the pair at their local Japanese restaurant before their untimely split. It's even been decorated with their names and heart symbols. Oh, the pathos. [Stuart Dredge]

A Week With Brangelina

Angelina Jolie has reportedly told Brad Pitt that she's had enough of Hollywood and wants out, as she wants her children to grow up to be "citizens of the world". She's reported to have said: "I want to take all three children back to Africa. I can squeeze in a break before starting work and I want to give them a little 'Mommy time' away from Brad." Sounds a bit ominous, doesn't it?

However, whilst they're still doing the acting thing, it's been said that Brad takes Maddox and Zahara to work with him, putting them in the baby creche whilst he shoots Oceans 13. This story has been everywhere I've looked, but I really can't see why it's so interesting. So he takes his kids to work - shock horror!

Nothing else to report, but it seems that with everything I read, Brangelina seem to be less and less secure. Watch this space. [Toni Kelly]

eBay Picks: Angelina Jolie's used hanky and Johnny Depp's wedding photos

You can't wipe your kids' faces in public these days without someone nicking your hanky and flogging it on eBay. At least, you can't if you're Angelina Jolie, whose snot-encrusted cloth is on sale for $1,500 according to Bayraider. They've also found a "family insider" who's selling a gallery of photographs of Johnny Depp's wedding to Vanessa Paradis for the shocking price of $100,000. If that was in piratical doubloons, I'd consider it... [Stuart Dredge]

YouTube Video of the Day - Brad Pitt gets interviewed by Raphael Mezrahi

I like seeing people get stitched up. I like this video for the same reason. This guy, Raphael Mezahi has stitched up Brad Pitt good and proper. What is interesting is how Pitt ends up taking the michael out of Mezahi toward the end. I wonder if he's like that with everyone who can't speak English properly.

A Week With Brangelina

Just the one main story from the Brangelina camp this week. All of us gossip hounds got excited by the headlines stating Brad and Ange were sleeping in separate beds (fight! Fight! Fight! Fight!) but then we were all let down when we discovered it was purely due to baby Shiloh's crying.

Two-month old Shiloh is being a typical two-month old and not sleeping through the night, so Brad has moved rooms, leaving Angelina to deal with Shiloh's crying. Nicer celebrity journalists claim this is because he needs to rest as he has film commitments to Oceans 13, but others say he's just being a lazy sod. I think you can guess which camp I fall in to. Brad, you were so desperate for kids, you've got one - be a parent! What a surprise - kids cry! Amazing. [Toni Kelly]

Google Wars: Jennifer Aniston vs. Angelina Jolie

Welcome to a new feature here on Star Trip. Each week, we're going to pit two celebrities against each other in a Google war - which celeb will have the most links appear on Google? It's basically a modern twist on a popularity contest. I thought I'd start with a great celeb pairing, who have your man on the left in common: Jennifer Aniston vs. Angelina Jolie.

It's a good start for Jennifer Aniston; there isn't even an exact figure for her, just a rough guide: 24,600,000. But she's been beaten! Angelina scores a second victory over Jen with a score of 30,700,000 (again, a rough guide). So this week's winner is Angelina Jolie. I must admit, I'm disappointed. I'd suggest Jen steal someone else's husband to increase her rating, but she's basically nice, so she wouldn't. Congratulations Angelina (I write, through gritted teeth). [Toni Kelly]

Brad: "Why I Won't Marry Angelina"

They're the nuptials all of us star gazers have been waiting for, but it looks like we'll be made to wait a little longer until we see Brangelina stroll up the aisle. For over a year, it seems a day can't go by without someone claiming they're getting wed, but Brad Pitt has poured cold water over the rumours by confessing to his Gran, Betty, that he still hasn't got over his marriage to Jennifer Aniston.

Big-mouthed Betty told Star magazine: "Brad promised his last wife [Aniston] on their wedding day they'd be together forever, and they didn't make it. He is a sensitive soul who just wants to make sure he can keep his promise this time round."

A friend added: "Brad's world is wonderful right not, but he can't forget the words he said to Jen on their wedding day. That is the mark of total respect he still has for Jen. He made the promise all husbands do - to love Jen forever. But deep down, I suspect he feels a pang of regret that the marriage didn't work out."

Am I reading this right? A celebrity actually respecting their vows and the sanctity of marriage? Never thought I'd see the day... [Toni Kelly]

Brangelina Will NOT Be Getting Married Any Time Soon.

Once upon a time, couples would get wed and then decide to have children. It seems that the more traditional route is being abandoned more and more by celebrities, and Brangelina are no different. Having recently welcomed their first child to the world, they've gone to the media and said that they have absolutely no plans to marry at the moment. Of course, it could be a 'clever' ruse to get the media to back off, but it might also be true. To me, the question becomes - why have a kid together but not get married? Why aren't they getting married? Is there trouble in paradise?

new magazine reports that Angelina said: "There is nothing in the air. The focus is the kids, and we are obviously extremely committed to the children as parents together, so that kind of says it for us. To have a ceremony on top of it is nothing."

What with reports that Brad is getting bored with the backpacking lifestyle Angelina so enjoys, somehow I don't see this ending well. [Toni Kelly]

Angelina Talks About Baby Shiloh For The First Time.

Angelina Jolie has broken her silence and spoken to the media about the joys of motherhood and giving birth. Angelina has admitted she found the experience of giving birth frightening and is reported by Star magazine to have said: "You're just suddenly terrified that they're not going to take their first breath. That was my whole focus. I wanted to hear her cry."

Considering what newborns are like, I've a feeling Angelina will be sick and tired of hearing crying in the months to come. The actress also confirmed that she donates a lot of her money to refugees, telling the magazine: "I have a stupid income for what I do." Couldn't agree more, you marriage wrecker. Ooh, get me.

Angelina Seeks Meeting With Jen.

Angelina Jolie is seeking a meeting with Jennifer Aniston, claims Star magazine. Angelina is said to clear the air between the two feuding actresses following the birth of Angelina and Brad's first child, Shiloh Nouvel.

Her bodyguard Mickey Brett revealed to the magazine: "Angelina wants to get all the bad blood out in the open and to end the feud once and for all." However, another aid maintains that Angelina will not be apologising, as she still doesn't think she was in the wrong: "Angelina maintains - and will do to her grave - that she did not steal Brad Pitt from his wife".

Jennifer is currently promoting her hit movie The Break Up (she had to have a hit eventually, I suppose) in Australia with boyfriend Vince Vaughn. Angelina is said to want the meeting to take place when Jen returns. Angelina and Brad have now left Namibia following the birth of their daughter - so watch this space, I somehow don't think this is going to end well! [Toni Kelly]

Shiloh Pitt-Jolie's Pots & Pans T-Shirt is a Sell-Out

She's only just been born, but Shiloh Pitt-Jolie is already a fashion icon. At least she is according to The Sun, which says the £20 t-shirt she was dressed in for her first photo-shoot has completely sold out across the U.S. The shirt was designed by Kingsley Aarons, and features the words 'The Pots & Pans Band', apparently inspired by his son battering kitchen implements like a toddler Keith Moon.

So what to do if you missed out on the t-shirt, and simply MUST turn your infant into a Shiloh clone? Well, after a brisk rummage on eBay, I've found a couple: this one is currently going for just over $25 with five days until its auction closes, while this one is on offer for a Buy It Now price of, gulp, $150. Happy shopping! [Stuart Dredge]

Brangelina's First Exclusive Photos

You could almost say Brangelina did it for revenge. There's no other reason why they would make all the magazine editors interested in buying the first photos of Shiloh stay up all Saturday night in a bidding frenzy against one another. One of the editors blabbed '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.' The lucky punters were People magazine, who reportedly paid a handsome $4.1 million for the exclusive pictures. The image has appeared on the net recently, although authenticity is highly debatable. If so, man is that one tiny tot. [Katherine Hannaford]

Hurrah for Brangelina - the couple have finally spawned their first child, the marvellously-named Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt. No, it's not just a new-age way of spelling 'Sheila'. The Mirror says that Shiloh means Messiah - 'the peaceful one' - and can also be a peaceful or tranquil place. Not that Shiloh will be seeing any peaceful and tranquil places in the near future - with her parents having signed an exclusive £3.7m deal with a US magazine for the first snaps of their new arrival, wherever she goes will have its peace and tranquility rudely broken by hordes of paparazzi...

The latest news, courtesy of Star magazine, is that the couple have already said the big "I will".

According to Namibian locals, they wed back on April 22nd. "There were cars coming and going, security and guests," a witness says. Representatives of the pair deny they have tied the knot, but Star sources claim the couple have had a commitment ceremony.

Just blinking let us know, guys, so we can start that divorce sweepstake! [Toni Kelly]

You Too Could Own A Piece Of Brangelina

Not content with just manufacturing an army of brunette-Aryan spawns, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are moving into the homewares market, because, yanno, we all need a little 'Brangelina' in our lives! Whilst working in conjunction with Namibian craftsmen, the duo have created a line of rugs, pottery, and other African homewares that no-one really needs, unless it comes stamped with the 'Brangelina' trademark, that is. A source in Namibia confirmed the rumour, saying 'It combines their two passions. Brad's involved with design and Angelina is committed to humanitarian work.' The line will be launched in Paris, during a September art fair, and all proceeds will of course go to a Namibian community. Bloody do-gooders. [Katherine Hannaford]

Angelina Jolie's Mom-To-Be Faux Pas.

All expectant mothers tend to have cravings and Angelina Jolie is no different. According to new magazine, the actress has been craving nutty sweets Reese's Pieces. Unfortunately, the chocolate and peanut butter combo are only available in the US and definitely not available in Namibia, where Angelina, her children and fiance Brad Pitt are currently living.

However, beings as she's got more money than she knows what to do with, Angelina immediately ordered a box of the chocolates direct from the Pennsylvania factory. However, as the magazine points out, Moms-to-be are supposed to avoid anything containing nuts as it can lead to nut allegies in the child. All that money, but apparently no sense. [Toni Kelly]
