Now This Is Just Ridiculous!

brangetwins.jpg

Sometimes too much really is TOO MUCH!

According to reports, the bidding for the Brangelina twins' first baby pictures is currently at $15 million!!!!

OK! and People are supposedly the only two mags in the running for the pricey opportunity to snap the world's most anticipated twinsies.

They've got deep pockets!

We assume the money money money will go to a charity.

This is all about ego.

Paying that much for celebrity photos is not good business. Each mag just doesn't want their competitor to get the exclusive!

      that is a ridiculous amount. however, let them bid as high as they can; that money will go to great charities and to people that actually need the money. kudos to brad & angelina for being so giving.

      The good news is that a charity will get some much needed money. They will probably give some to the home building project they support in New Orleans. $15 million donated to charity can help a lot of people and make a difference in their lives.

      they need to lay off the getting money from the children…
      -
      I would have no problem with them if they just stopped with getting paid for having or adopting children by the tabs.
      -
      Why can they just have them and live happily ever after?

      Brangelina is disgusting.
      To trade the privacy of your newborn and make it an issue of ego and PR props, is disgusting.

      she can play dress up all she likes, angelina is a skanky ho…her tattoos are disgusting…and brad pitt has looked like a moron ever since the two self serving nitwits got together….they lap up every bit of attention they get…why do we see them talking their kids shopping every day for toys? because it's a photo op for them…and neither of them can act their way out of a paper bag

    38. coo co says – reply to this


      38

      Well, Angelina donates to charity, I heard she donates like half of what she gets for a movie, and Brad donates as well, so I bet she/they will donate the whole amount, I think I heard they did that with Shilo, but when they got pictures of J-lo and her kids, you NEVER heard anything about her donating it, because she DIDN'T.

      They said they were going to give the money they made pimping their first "natural" child to charity, but that never happened. They are just scum of the earth!!!! It's not just them … all these celebrities are pimping out their kids photos and it is just shameful. I wonder what these kids are going to say when they get older? Are they all going to turn out like Rumer, thinking they are all that, when they aren't!

      where do they get the money to pay the celebs? it's not like they sell that many magazines. they are probably the only celebs who would actually give the money to charity like they say they will. it's WAY too much to get pics of some babies but if it goes to charity, good for them.
