Brangelina know how to keep things hush hush.
Turns out that on Sunday, May 25th Angelina Jolie gave birth to twins Isla Marcheline and Amelie Jane in Aix-en-Provence following the Cannes Film Festival (where Angelina was seen as large as a caboose promoting two films including “Kung Fu Panda.”)
Jolie and husband Brad Pitt apparently used a Catholic clinic and the names of the babies are apparently in honor of their grandmothers.

A Malawi judge has finally ruled in favor of Madonna and film director husband Guy Ritchie to officially adopt Malawain two-year-old baby David Banda today.
David’s birth mother died of AIDS when he was a month old and his father, Yohane Banda felt unable to cope and placed him in an orphanage.
The 49-year-old singer saw baby David while reviewing footage for a documentary she produced on Malawian orphans and flew to Africa to meet the child.
Last week, Madonna said that the efforts to adopt David were as painful as giving birth. She also has a seven-year-old son with Guy Ritchie and an 11-year-old daugther from a previous relationship.

Kato Kaelin Larry Birkhead (sperm donor to father of Anna Nicole Smith’s daughter Dannielynn) took his 17-month-old daughter to Nassau, Bahamas to visit the resting place of her mother and half-brother Daniel this week.
Jann Carl, a journalist with integrity nice legs covered the story for tabloid TV show “Entertainment Tonight.”
In a multi-part interview to airing tomorrow evening, Birkhead says the visit is difficult for him, but he arranged it for his daughter,
“It’s tough. Even though she doesn’t understand, it was important for us to come. One day I can tell her that we went to visit her mom.”
When they arrived at the unmarked gravesites, Dannielynn placed a pink toy dildo turtle on Anna Nicole’s plot and whispered, crazy-ass bitch “mama.”
When asked how he feels about making the journey from Los Angeles to Nassau, Birkhead says:
“I don’t like the fact that they’re here, I never did. I know that Daniel didn’t want to be here and I know that his mother was only here because of what was going on between us with the paternity question. To me it feels really odd…. I’m going to leave the decision to Dannielynn when she’s older. It would probably be very hard, if not impossible to take both of them and I definitely don’t want to separate them.”
To keep Anna Nicole’s memory alive for their daughter, Birkhead tells ET, “I keep a lot of memories around. I quiz her and she knows Mama. I say, ‘Where’s Mama?’ and she’ll give Mama a kiss on the picture.”

It surely isn’t an Oscar or even a Golden Globe, but Angelina Jolie’s hard work this year has paid off in the form of a “Performance of the Year” award from the Santa Barbara International Film Festival.
The actress was handed the award by Clint Eastwood for her portrayal of ‘Mariane Pearl’ (wife of killed journalist Daniel Pearl) in Michael Winterbottom’s “A Mighty Heart.”
Eastwood will be directing the 32-year-old Jolie in “The Changeling” (Universal has set a release date of November 8, 2008) - the plot line of which revolves around a mother’s prayer for her kidnapped son to return home is answered, though it doesn’t take long for her to suspect the boy who comes back is not hers.
Journalists at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival were forbidden to ask questions about the pregnancy rumors surrounding Angelina Jolie. Many rumors are circling that she and husband Brad Pitt are expecting twins. The actress has three adopted children, six-year-old Maddox, four-year-old Pax and three-year-old Zahara, and a 19-month-old biological daughter Shiloh with Pitt.
