Shiloh's transition to John

What? Isn't she just a child?

TheFormidableMrsC · 20/09/2016 17:18

Birdsgottafly...sorry, I hope JA does feel bloody smug. She was extremely dignified at the time, but the pain she went through was evident. How they behaved was disgusting. I feel very strongly about that (for personal experience reasons). I don't disagree with your comment about AJ being able to bring publicity to the masses but I do think she thinks sees herself as the next Mother Teresa. JA is well shot of BP, he is a serial cheat and will never change. They rarely do.

daisychain01 · 20/09/2016 17:18

I didn't even know AJ and BP were still together.. Way to go! They lasted well.

I don't have any time on my hands, or else I'm just Selleb clueless

2kids2dogsnosense · 20/09/2016 17:21

Well - that escalated quickly!

Andrewofgg · 20/09/2016 17:23

Is the monkey's-fuck shop open so that I can try to give one?

daisychain01 · 20/09/2016 17:23

Any time you see a Selleb couple schmoozing, having their marriage vows reaffirmed, or similar, you can almost hear the clock going tick-tock-tick-tock brrrrriiiiiingggggg, Divorce-time!

BillSykesDog · 20/09/2016 17:30

I imagine JA is probably fucked off that she's going to spend another two years answering wall to wall questions about them again. It must be very boring for her.

Although you should probably ask for a refund having already opened the thread and posted!

Alfieisnoisy · 20/09/2016 17:33

I don't generally do fandom of people but I love JA. Sh has had lots of good breaks in her life and she is usingf that as a force for good.. she is involved with lots of good stuff...seem to recall a school has opened within two years of her visiting an area and finding out there was a need.

I love her for her humanitarian work and love her as an actress too.

P1nkP0ppy · 20/09/2016 17:35

Yawn
Nothing to do with their careers tailing off then. Too many publicity-seeking interviews by AJ, especially those exploiting her skills as a 'wonder mother'.

BillSykesDog · 20/09/2016 17:36

What? Isn't she just a child?

Socially rather than medically transitioning. She's called John and uses male pronouns and 'wants to be a boy' according to interviews with AJ.

Maudlinmaud · 20/09/2016 17:37

OMG just got the bbc update whilst at work and couldnt say anything. So shocked!!

BillSykesDog · 20/09/2016 17:38

I love her for her humanitarian work and love her as an actress too.

Have you never noticed about how she suddenly got interested in humanitarianism after her image had taken a huge hit re her affair with Brad? Funny that...

FuzzyOwl · 20/09/2016 17:39

They were a couple when Angelina adopted her second child, so I would have thought an issue with his parenting style should have prevented her from allowing Brad to also adopt Zahara and she wouldn't have gone on to adopt another child, have three children with him and let him adopt Maddox.

GladAllOver · 20/09/2016 17:41

Isn't there a separate section for celeb gossip? If not there ought to be.

Seeyouontheotherside · 20/09/2016 17:43

Brad always came across as a self absorbed bore, now the pretty is gone....well I can't think of anything else that could have attracted her to him.

Sallystyle · 20/09/2016 17:43

Or you could just not open the thread and move on Glad

HelenaDove · 20/09/2016 17:54

I bet the office of Grazia magazine is in meltdown today.

gabsdot · 20/09/2016 18:34

I feel bad for the kids, especially Maddox. He lived through Angelina's divorce from Billy Bob too.

hollyisalovelyname · 20/09/2016 18:35

I just noticed Angelina Jolie- AJ
Jennifer Aniston- JA
Doh!!

HelenaDove · 20/09/2016 18:36

I think the way the press treat Jennifer Aniston is disgusting.

WallisofWindsor · 20/09/2016 18:37

Humanitarian work was a PR stunt to get people on her side for what she did to Jennifer.
Karma is an e--n bitch. The whole saga has dogged their marriage - like forever.
I don't know them from Adam, but boy am I happy- particularly because Iike Jennifer- I have been there.

WhateverWillBe · 20/09/2016 18:38

Who gets the kids though? Will they just split em down the middle and have seven each?
