Proud Papa Brad Pitt is seen doing daddy duty recently dropping off and picking up his kids as they start school. Talk about needing an education…

3-year-old Pax is from Vietnam, 2-year-old Zahara is from Ethiopia, 5-year-old Maddox is from Cambodia and they’re attending Lycée Français de Prague school in Prague, Czech Republic away from their American parents.

At least they’ll do well in world geography! (Picture Source)

Angelina Jolie’s Son Pax Thien Is the Son of a Drug Addict

March 28th, 2007 by dd

Angelina Jolie’s adopted son Pax Thien was the child of a drug addict, it has been claimed. Heroin-addict Pham Thu Dung reportedly abandoned her son when he was just two days old, and fears are growing she may demand he returns to Vietnam.

Angelina - who adopted Pax last week - is said to be worried Dung, 29, could hound her for money or threaten to contest the adoption because the adoption papers were only signed by the Pax’s grandparents.

Pax’s grandfather, Chien, told Britain’s News of the World newspaper: “Our daughter is a heroin addict and her life has been ruled by drugs. When she finds out a rich movie star has adopted her baby, she will go after her for money and make trouble. She may even try to take the child back.” [PostChronicle]

Mad Max, Baby Pax and Zahara in Hello!

March 22nd, 2007 by dd

Picture Maddox and Pax catching some zzzz’s together; just instead of a Caucasian cutie, they’re two Asian boys

Admit it! I heard you… you said “awwww” under your breath, didn’t you.

Update: Solly, images removed!:

Lawyers from a certain publication which DD will not name (rhymes with ‘Beople Magazine‘) kindly asked to have the images of Pax, Maddox, and Zahara removed despite the fact that they were ‘borrowed’ from a different source and won’t appear in this unnamed magazine until Friday. Either way, in the spirit of avoiding litigation, DD will comply.

So in trying to find replacement pictures, DD looked innocently under ‘Asian boys’ and whoa… you do not want to go there. So just use your imagination and pretend that there still exists a really cute picture of Maddox and Pax sleeping side by side in bed; then conjure up an image of Zahara in a cute purple baby-kini and Pax poolside trying to get peanuts (or small objects) out of a jar.

When you think of the cutest thing possible and make yourself go ‘awwww’, you’ve acheived the same desired effect!

Eh, Homez, we dun need no stinkin’ peek-chers here!

aaliyah romeo must die1
This is supposed to be Pax and Zahara… just imagine them as little 2 and 3 year old kids instead. No problem!

Great look with the reverse baseball cap, Pax!

Angelina Jolie dodged reporters on her way from the airport after flying from Ho Chi Minh City, where she adopted the newest member of her family, Pax Thien Jolie-Pitt, at an orphanage on the outskirts of the city last week.

Jolie was expected to meet with U.S. Embassy officials Tuesday to apply for a visa for 3-year-old Pax. Once the visa is issued, she can take him to the United States. She was expected to leave Hanoi on Wednesday.

Angelina Jolie: From Hollywood Bombshell to Soccer Mom

March 19th, 2007 by dd

Angelina Jolie and her partner Brad Pitt now have four children — five year old Maddox from Cambodia, two year old Ethiopian Zahara, Pax Thien (which means “peaceful sky”) and their biological daughter Shiloh Nouvel born in Namibia last May.

As a result of the large family, Jolie told the Phap Luat newspaper, she would take time off from making movies to take care of her brood.

“Now, I will stop making movies and will stay home to help Pax to get used to his new life,” the 31-year-old said.

“I have four children and taking care of the children is the most important thing for me at the moment. I am very proud and happy to be their mother,” she added.

Although she didn’t specify how long her sabbatical would be, Jolie confirmed that she hoped to learn a little Vietnamese so that she can talk to Pax until he’s adjusted to life in the United States.

Pax and Angelina Jolie’s First Encounter

Pax Thien Jolie-Pitt, People’s Sexiest Man Alive 2028

In her bid to save the world one person at at time, Angelina Jolie is in Vietnam to pick up her newly adopted son, Pax Thien. As she tries to keep a low profile while the paperwork gets processed and Pax’s US Passport is made, reports have surfaced regarding her first meeting with the newest edition to the growing ‘Brangelina’ household:

Angelina Jolie hugged and spoke a few words in Vietnamese to comfort the crying boy she is adopting to live with her family in America.

Reports said the almost three-and-a-half year-old boy, renamed Pax Thien Jolie, cried when he first saw his adoptive mother at the Ho Chi Minh City orphanage where he has lived since infancy.

Jolie was quick to hug him and told him in Vietnamese “Khong sao dau, khong sao dau” (No problem, no problem) and immediately started playing with him.

The boy’s caregiver said his favorite dishes included fried noodle and yoghurt and that he can count from 1 to 10 in English.

Jolie fetched the boy from the orphanage on Thursday and signed adoption papers with authorities in the southern city, which is Vietnam’s largest urban area with 8 million people. [Reuters]

Needless to say things are going to change for Pax in a hurry. Below is a photo of the adoption papers signed by Momma Angie.
