Hey, do you know that the women on the right picture, isn't pregnant though? The women back that then had to lean back because they were wearing so many layers of fabric if they stood straight up they would fall down. So, while leaning back it would, at least in this picture create the illusion that she is pregnant, although she is not.

Aloney says – reply to this

38

in every fracking picture Angelina is holding her stomach. We know your pregnant bitch.. you don't need to keep reminding the world.
Mark says – reply to this

39

It's a commonly accepted belief, though, that the woman in the painting is not pregnant. The painting, rather, is symbolic of the woman's fertility and ABILITY to produce children in the future.
Dawn says – reply to this

40

LOLOL….Perez, I'm amazed at how you find these things…very similar!
I can't wait to see the new Jolie-Pitts!…Love them!

Adriane is right - she's not actually pregnant in the picture its just the layers of fabric she's wearing.

ashley says – reply to this

60

clever perez…..but too bad that the woman in the painting isn't pregnant, she is just holding her dress and bunching it up! ive studied this painting in many art classes!
non says – reply to this

61

I love that painting. You can see the artist in the mirror in the background.
Kylee says – reply to this

62

Haha that is brilliant! Although, the other posters are right, she probably isn't pregnant. Although she is wearing many layers, it was also very popular at the time for women to stuff their stomachs. It gave the illusion of having a huge baby bump. Add to the idea that it is a wedding portrait and it is safe to say that she probably wasn't pregnant! I am a fashion major and learned this in my class on the history of clothing.

Not to rain on your parade because quite honestly, I think this is the most amazing thing I have seen on your website!
Mona says – reply to this

63

OM Goodness, This is Hilarious and oh so perfect.

Way to go Perez!
sandra says – reply to this

64

That is too funny!
SammaJo says – reply to this

65

Beautiful reference to artwork.
Tonx says – reply to this

66

LOL! I don't get why a lot of people on here absolutely love them or hate them. To the people that LOVE her, it's a bit overwhealming to glorify these two constantly. Plus, it adds more fuel to the haters. And to the haters who seem to feel sympathy for Aniston… SYMPATHY IS NOT LOVE… that's why he left her. Frankly, if they can afford to live the life they live… then let them be. She was a crazy ass bitch back then, who wasn't a crazy ass bitch back in the day? Well…not THAT crazy, but crazy non the less.
Giovanna says – reply to this

67

This is your best comparison ever.
angelina the husband stealer says – reply to this

68

ANGELINA IS AN ASSWHOLE……I REALLY REALLY WOULD LIKE TO SEE BRAD PITT WITH A LATINA……
BUT LATINA WOMEN NEED REALLY MEN…..NOT PUSSIES LIKE BRAD PITT…

I WISH THEM BOTH NOTHING BUT THE WORST AND KARMA IS A BITCH ANGELINA…..IN BRADS NEXT FILM HE WILL LEAVE HER FOR HIS CO STAR (OH PLEASE GOD LET HIM DO A MOVIE WITH JENNIFER LOPEZ OR EVA MENDES)
DANIELLE says – reply to this

HAH! says – reply to this

77

Read the title of that masterpiece. Has there been a wedding? Selfish sperm donor and his pregnant whore. Now there's an apt title.
mila says – reply to this

78

She is a beautiful pregnant woman, but thats it. She is not a beauty and stop overrating her looks. She has aged so prematurely. Just wait to see her looks after those twins are born.

90

That's classic! Good one Perez!!
kt says – reply to this

91

ummm that painting is not of a pregnant woman…she's is just holding her dress up because the material the dress is made of is so long…sorry to burst your bubble
Mikki says – reply to this

92

Some info about the painting:
ca 1434
some power couple of that time
green color - fertillity
tabu for them to be in the bedroom, plus you see the slippers are of (ready for bed..?)
the dog presents domestic bliss
the male is blessing their marriage - they don't need the church
Ellen D. mentioned that we'll look back on this day (gay marriage allowed in CA) and think that it was weird for gay people to not be able to get married, just as we today think about womens right to vote.
Can you imagine this couple, 600 years ago (before Islam, discovery of america, all european revolutions, two world wars… ) and still people say that it is not acceptable with sex/children before marriage.
Sarah420 says – reply to this

93

OMG! How many people are going to point out that the girl in the painting isn't pregnant? Good job learning that in art class…the two pictures are still crazy alike!
kim says – reply to this

94

Re: Mark – true, and it is also believed that as the Arnolfini family were among the most established silk merchants of the day, that the voluminous mounds of fabric she held up in front of her were meant to reference her husbands successful trade.
K. Selbz says – reply to this

95

Perez, as an art student I can appreciate this comparison.

hahaha, this really made my day.
Elenique says – reply to this

96

Excellent! Perez, vous etes magnifique!
sourdoggie says – reply to this

97

lol, not bad, not bad of a comparison.
jen says – reply to this

98

aHA! I knew it looked familiar
Melissa says – reply to this

99

If only Angelina was as classy as that painting. She's a home-wrecker and an unmarried mother. He should be ashamed of himself too. The both make me sick!

Re: Mikki – Um, Mikki, Islam has been around way longer than 600 years. Idiot.

Criss Angel Is Recorded Threatening To Knock Out His Producer!

Whoa! Criss Angel is NOT messing around here!

The Luxor headlining illusionist was recorded having quite the verbal altercation with Joe Monti, one of his magic producers on Wednesday, during which Angel is heard threatening to knock him out - and now he's had a police report filed against him!

Give it a listen (above)!

Furthermore, Monti later said to authorities that he recorded the meeting because Angel has a history of bullying employees!

He explains:

“I wanted him to know how demeaning he was. I created 50-60 percent of the magic for ‘Mindfreak.' I have no reason to do anything vindictively but I draw the line on violence.”

Scary!

Violence is never the answer, folks!
