Spin Sycle for Monday, April 30 2012

Hey Syclers, I'm back!  Have you ever felt so fed up with a job, relationship, etc. that you were willing to walk away just to keep you sanity and health together?

Let's start with a blind item:

[BlindGossip] They have been a couple for several years and are parents together, so it was just a matter of time before they took that extra step and got married. They announced their engagement earlier this year and have been hinting that the wedding will be later this year. No. The wedding is actually next weekend. It won’t be one of those huge 500-person affairs. Just family and close friends, including some of his friends who just happen to be big celebrities. His ex-wife is definitely not invited. The location is the same country where he proposed to her. And yes, their child/ren will be in the wedding party. Congratulations!

UPDATE!

They are changing the date! The wedding is being moved to early summer (June/July). We’ll let you know as it gets closer.

Here's the supposed date

Here's Nicki Minaj with Starships:

Can you believe it's been a year since William and Kate married?

Robin Gibb to leave hospital soon?  I have nothing but the best hopes for him.  A speedy recovery to you

So how much longer do you think Nick and Mariah will be married?

Johnny Depp celebrates his son's 10th birthday without Vanessa

Until later!

Spin Sycle for August 29 2010

Michael Jackson's body to be exhumed?

Madonna and Lady Gaga to tour together?  I might have to see that.

Fergie & Slash make video together

Britney Spears used to protest virtual child porn?

Interesting.  Melvinknows.com ran a story on August 29 about how Brangelina were definitely spiltting up and now the site is gone.  Hmm.

Anybody sick of this rumor yet?

Brangelina splitting up....at least according to Page 6 it's happening....I don't know, I don't know if I care.  I suppose if it gets said for a long enough time, maybe it will come true or maybe like a broken clock, it will have been repeated at the right time.

Mega-couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have secretly signed legal documents dividing their vast fortune and family in case they split, according to Britain's News of the World. Pitt and Jolie, who are not married but have been together for more than five years, have three biological children as well as three adopted kids and an estimated $300 million fortune. Under the reported deal, hammered out with an LA law firm, the pair would have joint custody over the kids, who would live full time with Jolie. Rumors of a breakup have dogged the couple for years. Recently, Jolie reportedly had an affair with a language coach with whom she was working for an upcoming role, but the teacher vehemently denied it. Neither star appeared at the Golden Globes last Sunday and Pitt made a solo showing at Friday night's Haiti telethon.



*clutch yer pearls ladies, this may get interesting!*




update from digital spy:

Brad Pitt has been planning a new start away from Angelina Jolie for six months, according to reports.

The couple have reportedly separated this week in a $205m (£126m) deal.

"Brad is miserable and wants a new start," a source told Ian Halperin, author of recent bestseller Brangelina: The Untold Story Of Brad Pitt And Angelina Jolie.

The insider added: "He’s looked miserable and exhausted the past couple of years because he can’t handle Angie’s explosive personality and self-destructive ways.

"I love Brad and am in his corner all the way. I feel so bad for him because Angie put him through the wringer. I can confirm that his relationship with Angie is over."

Here we go

So Brad lied in his interview that he gave up smoking pot because of the kids? What's the real story? Is she really still shooting smack? courtesy of digitalspy:

Angelina Jolie has reportedly blamed Jennifer Aniston after discovering that Brad Pitt used to smoke marijuana.

Jolie allegedly told her friends that partner Pitt lied to her when he said that he had stopped smoking the drug.

A source admitted to the National Enquirer: "Ange says it's Jen's fault Brad is still smoking pot, since the bulk of his drug-taking days were when he was with her.

"She's angry and looking for someone to blame, so Jen is always going to be a prime target."

The insider continued: "Angie, feeling she's been totally lied to, is piecing together all the other things Brad's not been truthful to her about and come up with a fairly long list."

She's just better than the rest of us!

from digital spy:

Angelina Jolie has revealed how she got her figure back after giving birth to twins.

The actress and husband Brad Pitt welcomed Knox and Vivienne into the world in July, but Jolie wasted no time in losing her baby weight.

Speaking at the New York premiere of Changeling, the 33-year-old remarked that she shed the pounds simply by being a mum.

"[Running] around with all the kids, and breastfeeding, which I think is part of your body's natural way of losing weight," she said.

Um wow....

In vitro, huh?

Forget Mother Nature – Us Weekly reports in its new issue, on newsstands now, that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt turned to fertility treatments to quickly conceive twins Knox and Vivienne.

"They conceived through in vitro fertilization," a well-placed source within their camp tells Us. "They both desperately wanted more babies soon."

The chance of having fraternal twins at Angelina's age (33) naturally is under 1 percent; with in vitro, the chances are 25 percent. Says Dr. Arthur Wisot of L.A.'s Reproductive Medical Group (who did not treat the couple), "We live in an era of reproductive freedom, so anybody can do anything they want within legal limits."

The actress chose the procedure (which can cost around $12,000 a pop) so "she wouldn't have to deal with the stress of trying to get pregnant," the source tells Us. "She could just knock it out."

Indeed, Jolie has spoken about her goal to do just that.

"If we're going to have 10 kids, we'd like to raise them while we're young," she told Elle U.K. last year. Brad Pitt turns 45 on December 18.

A source adds: "They were too impatient."

Knox and Vivienne – born in Nice, France on July 12 – join the couple's adopted brood of Maddox, 6, Pax, 4, Zahara, 3, and biological daughter Shiloh, 2.

Billy Bob Thorton weighs in on Brangelina

I've been waiting for him to speak up! from digital spy:

Billy Bob Thornton has said that Brad Pitt is part of a "high school phase" for Angelina Jolie.

Thornton hit out at his former wife, claiming that she would probably want to get back together with him in the future.

Speaking at a press launch for his new album with The Boxmasters, he said: "She's just going through a high school phase.

"You know dating the quarterback of the football team with Brad Pitt over there. She'll be waking up from that dream in no time.

"Who knows if I'll be there when she's ready to come to her senses though."

Thornton married Jolie in 2000 after meeting her on the film set for Pushing Tin. They divorced three years later.

*Brad and Angie do seem like the golden quarterback and the hot goth chick in high school*

Brad Pitt in Houston?

In my neck of the woods? I know he's been shooting a movie in Austin....I have sent out the word, if he is, I'll get pics for you!

from Lainey:

There were reports earlier this week that he’d been sighted in Houston. Several LaineyGossip.com readers have written to say that he was still in Houston as of yesterday, with Sean Penn, friendly with fans, and at one point joking around on a smoke break.

So if he’s confident enough to travel, it would mean Angelina’s due date is far enough away… right? But far enough away to make it 8/8/8?

The Second Coming has arrived!

The twins arrived! From ONTD:

and from popsugar:

ET has confirmed that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt brought their twins into the world on Sunday night, May 25th. Angelina supposedly gave birth in a Catholic clinic in the Aix-En-Provence region of France. We're also hearing buzz that the twins were both girls named Isla Marcheline and Amelie Jane. It's earlier than we expected to hear but ET says, "Babies are great and so is mom." More good news — Angie has apparently made amends with her dad, Jon Voight, and they're back on speaking terms. Congrats to the happy family, and we definitely can't wait to see the brand new party of eight (if they really are here already - stay tuned for more)!

JUST IN!!!!

EPIC!! from OK! magazine!

Even though Brad Pitt famously once said that he would get married again when everyone in the United States could also do so, the rumor mill has gone into overdrive this evening with reports that the Fight Club star has said "I do" to gal pal, and mother of his children, Angelina Jolie in a ceremony in New Orleans.

When reached for comment on the rumors, Brad's rep would only say to OK! that she had "no idea" if they were true or not.

If Brangelina, who are expecting at least one more child this summer to add to their already sizeable brood, did indeed tie the knot, it would be the second go-around with wedded bliss for Brad, whose marriage to Jennifer Aniston notoriously dissolved right around the same time he met Angelina.

This would be the third trip down the aisle for the Oscar-winning actress, who had previously been wed to actors Johnny Lee Miller and Billy Bob Thornton, which means this would mark the first time that Angelina married someone without three names.

Stay tuned to OK! as this story develops.

Carrying Brad Pitt's twins not so hot!

For those of you who have been living in the Mariana Trench, Brad Pitt has impregnated his shadowy mistress Angelina Jolie with twins. This pregnancy isn't going as well as Shiloh's did. Angie is suffering from "edema or swelling, gestational diabetes, fatigue and relentless nausea." Ugh.

"Angie has gestational diabetes," a source says. "She found out about a month ago and has been trying to keep it under wraps. She's been seeing a nutritionist about it -- frequently."

Angelina isn't known for being a hearty eater. After her mom Marcheline Bertrand died last year, Angelina's weight went down to 98 lbs. You hang onto those incredibly expensive babies now, Angie! She's also all kinds of swollen.

"Her feet are so swollen that her shoes have gone up a half size at least. She's constantly tired," says the source. "She's sick and irritable and feels heavy and weak."

Oh My!

Off of MSNBC.com:

Jealous, insecure Angelina JolieIt just goes to show, you can be considered the hottest woman on Planet Earth, steal the hottest guy from the hottest sitcom star, and adopt children from all the hottest third world countries, and still suffer from severe insecurity. So it seems for Angelina Jolie, who, according to Life & Style magazine, is so unconfident, she sneaks peeks at Brad Pitt’s e-mail. Not only that, “Brad says Angelina is so insecure, he’s caught her going through his pockets on more than one occasion,” one Pitt family insider told the magazine.

When confronted, Angelina apparently refused to talk about it like an adult. “She turns everything on its head and tries to make Brad the villain,” said the Life & Style insider. “She accuses him of still being hung up on Jennifer Aniston and of not wanting Angie to see the e-mails he’s sending to his ex-wife.” Brad was so frustrated after one argument, the source said, he told his sister Julie that he was done with Angie.

He didn’t leave her, however. According to a friend of Angelina’s, he came up with a compromise. “Brad asked Angie to consider making their relationship an open one,” Angelina’s friend told Life & Style. “His idea is that when they’re apart, he can be with other women and she can be with other people.”

*Where do you sign up for that train?*

OMG!!!

off of CDANs:

In a scene not unlike many others played throughout the world, you have the rich, fairly attractive woman discussing serious financial matters with another man, and the subject of the discussion turns to the woman's current plaything.

In a discussion overheard at the Waldorf Astoria Hotel in New York, Angelina first said Brad had no financial sense at all and would never let him near her money and that she was worried he might eventually run out of his if he kept putting it into stupid things. Presumably she means donating it to Darfur and other causes as opposed to purchasing more children because everyone knows they are cheap, especially bringing them with you everywhere in the world. If that wasn't bad enough, she then went on to say that she likes Brad best when he just shuts up and looks pretty because that's what he's best at. Too many times he ruins things by opening his mouth.
