Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt Design Sparkly, Slithery Things
When you're as shiny as Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, it would stand to reason that you would create shiny things too, right?
Hollywood's most golden couple have teamed with high-end jeweler Asprey for a capsule collection called the Protector, according to Women's Wear Daily. The shimmering gold and silver accessories are inspired by snakes.
You know, because nothing says precious metals and stones like slithering creatures. And dudes with really hideous beards.
The limited-edition collection hits stores this week, with prices starting at $525 for a silver baby spoon. Proceeds benefit Education Partnership for Children of Conflict, which Angie cofounded.
Apparently, the mega mama received a snake ring just before giving birth to Shiloh and she considered it a protector of her family.
Speaking of families, you'll never guess who else is designing glittery baubles?
Angelina Jolie Is Queen of the Tabloid Covers
It's just one of those weeks in gossip. The Gosselins are behaving themselves relatively well and the Robsten holding hands thing came out too late for tabloid covers. Good thing there's always Angelina Jolie to fall back on.
This week she's apparently a lying, cheating phony who's playing mind games with Jen and adopting a seventh child. Yay, it's just like old times, with no Gosselin in sight! Sure, Levi Johnston's still making cover appearances, but that's fine.
Now, let’s get to it and see what's going on with our favorite tabloid queen...
Why Does John Stamos Gotta Lie? Madonna, Too!
Why did John Stamos bother to lie about being drunk on a talk show when it was so obvious he was? And now he's confessed—why lie if you're just going to get caught?

Come now. The stars, they already give us so much—sharing their mama's Cuban chicken recipe with Us Weekly and telling us that they're wearing Galliano on the red carpet. Can't a star manipulate people in peace without you greedy fans always asking for more, more, more?
I mean it's not like stars lie about everything, just every aspect of their lives—including whoppers such as...
Is It Weird for Shiloh to Lose a Tooth at Age 3?
Why is little Shiloh losing her teeth when she's only 3? I can see why Pax is, but not Shiloh.
—MamaMe, via the Answer B!tch inbox
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have not—shocker!—issued a press release answering questions raised by photos of their daughter Shiloh Nouvel's gappy smile this week. But according to pediatricians, the front tooth loss experienced by 5-year-old Pax is within the scope of normal, but 3-year-olds? Not so much, I'm told.
It is explainable, just not common. So what's going on inside the Jolie-Pitt household? Read on, and decide for yourself...
Rob & Kristen Aren't the Only Rebel Lovers!
Unless you haven't been paying close attention, we love us some Robsten. And it's not just because Robert Pattinson and Kristen Stewart are a mouthwatering combination (they are!), but because their adoration for one another is totally rebellious.
Their overprotective studio, Summit, doesn't want them together and is doing anything in its power to create distance between the two. But Twilight's Romeo and Juliet choose to revolt and keep up their relaysh, however clandestine it is right now.
Robsten's hardly the first couple in H'wood not to conform to the public's expectations—take a gander at our Rebel Lovers gallery, where we applaud some daring guys and dolls who did anything for love...even things we never asked them to do.

Quentin Tarantino Wants Angie Next—Does Brad?
Working with director Quentin Tarantino is kind of a staple in an actor's life. It's a guy thing.
Brad Pitt told E! News that this Inglourious Basterds collaboration was almost eight years in the making, so when the script finally came to him he simply had to do it.
After persuading one of, if not the, biggest movie stars in the world to do your project, how the hell does Quentin only go up from here? Angelina Jolie, of course.
Brangelina Spills Fave Places to Spend Alone Time
Are Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie pulling a Jada Pinkett Smith and spilling secrets we're not sure we wanted to know?
We'd already heard them tell of a sexy little grotto in their palatial pad, but now the stars are confirming its use for, ahem, alone time from all those kiddies.
Last week, Pitt acknowledged the little spot behind the waterfall in their pool, calling it "a great place for sex."
According to the U.K.'s Sun, when asked about this at the Inglourious Basterds premiere earlier this week, Angie was frank.
Is Happy Angie Preggers? Is Brad Quitting Movies?
It was almost as if we saw a glimpse of old and fun Angelina Jolie out in action last night at the Inglourious Basterds premiere in L.A. Even though she donned her typical black getup, the leather-looking ensemble was a helluva lot more interesting than anything else we've seen Saint Jolie sport lately.
Some of you commenters seem to disagree, but we thought she looked fab. Ange was still a tad frail-looking for our taste, but her arms and bod looked way healthier than when we saw her back during awards season.
Even though Jolie skipped most press, when we chatted with her for a bit she was bubbly, fun and...nice. What gives? Could Jolie be preggers again or something?
Well, when we talked with Brad Pitt and Angelina 'bout that...
It's Angelina Jolie's Turn to Be Creepily Immortalized
Apparently, no one is safe from Daniel Edwards' "art."
The same guy who immortalized Britney Spears in the midst of childbirth, Suri Cruise's (ahem) poop, Oprah Winfrey and her dogs, Paris Hilton's organs and the Octomom in pink has taken on a subject a bit less laughable: Angelina Jolie.
The result, however, is no less creepy.
The New York-based artist has created a sculpture of the megastar nursing her and Brad Pitt's twins, Vivienne and Knox. Indeed, the work—called Landmark for Breastfeeding—is completely naked and meant to rest on a park bench.
While the "football hold" for breast-feeding is meant to show Brangelina's twins, Edwards has depicted one of them to be of African descent as a nod to the couple's adoption efforts and humanitarian work. He was inspired by Jolie's cover of W magazine. It's very deep.
"Hopefully, my sculpture inspires an increase of wetnurses to assist women who have concerns about mastitis, or passing HIV to their infant," he says of the reasoning behind the creation of the creation. Yeah, right.
The monument is set to be unveiled near Pitt's birthplace in Oklahoma City on Sept. 11, before she goes on exhibit in London.

Here are a whole bunch of pictures of Brangelina and their kids that are a lot less creepy.
Angelina Still Saving World…and Eyeing New Jolie-Pitt?
No one is trying to diminish all the global good Angelina Jolie has done in recent years (and we're not just talking about her contribution to the world's collective gene pool).
But we can't help but wonder if the actress turned UNHCR ambassador, who arrived in Iraq with son Maddox yesterday to visit people internally displaced by the nation's ongoing violence, isn't maybe looking to take some of her work back home with her?
And by work, we mean another adorable addition to the ever-welcoming Jolie-Pitt brood. It has been nearly 13 months since the family restocked its ranks, after all.
Besides, there's no mistaking that motherly glow. Unless, of course, we're mistaken.

See, it's work like this that got Angelina a spot in our Do-Gooders gallery.
Brad Pitt Is an Efficiency Expert
Men of few words are so mysterious and sexy, ya know?
However, as brutally handsome as Brad Pitt is, this isn't how we'd typically describe him...until now.
The Inglourious Basterds star gave an impressively short-winded interview to German magazine Bild in which he gave some rather curious answers. For starters, when the reporter asked him what his "wife Angelina Jolie" thought of the Quentin Tarantino film, he didn't blink. And he definitely didn't point out the error.
"She really likes it. She laughed a lot," was all he said.
The questioner attempted to rattle his chain further, but still Brad didn't bite.
Brangelina, Oprah & Clooney: Look Good, Do Good
Being a celebrity can be pretty sweet: the fat paychecks, the red carpet glamour and getting to have your photo on the wall at your dry cleaner's.
But some celebrities have figured out that being famous means you can help people, too. Whether it's about the plight of refugees or raising funds for firefighters, stars like Angelina Jolie, George Clooney, Oprah Winfrey, Matt Damon, Denis Leary and others are doing more than just polishing their public images. They're using fame to fuel charitable works around the world.
So check out some of Hollywood's finest in our Do-Gooder Gallery, and feel free to offer up your thoughts—or the names of other celebs and causes to mention—in the comments.
