From MSN News....Jolie Planning to Adopt Again
"Angelina Jolie says she and Brad Pitt, who have three children including a newborn daughter, are planning to adopt another child, in an upcoming TV interview."
"'We don't know which — which country. But we're looking at different countries," the actress tells Cooper. "And we're — I'm just — it's gonna be the balance of what would be best for Mad and for Z right now. It's, you know, another boy, another girl, which country, which race would fit best with the kids.'"
Oh good grief people!! I think it's GREAT that you can help all these children, and I think yes, you're two of the most beautiful people in Hollywood, and yes I've loved some of your movies - but they're kids, not trading cards or collectible action figures! I have a friend here at work who, along with her husband, is having a hard enough time adopting ONE child because of the snaggles with international paperwork! Maybe Brad and Angelina could pull a spare one out of their pocket and just help my friends out a little bit!?
But yes, seriously, I realize what they're doing is a good thing...so I'm not knocking that.

Why don't people adopt children from the United States? I'm always a little stumped that celebrities and others have to go off to developing countries and, well (sorry for this), buy a kid. Hmmmm.
I've often wondered about that. Do they think they're helping needier kids in other countries? Is it easier? Cheaper? Is it a color-coordination thing? Not to be disrespectful, but c'mon! I mean, hello, Brangelina are concerned that they adopt kids from countries in such a way that they'd "fit best". Are we talking color swatches or puzzle pieces? Does it matter which race would fit best if they're adopted into the the same family and all are raised the same?
Angelina and Brad bug me for some reason.. Something just rings insincere to me.. The best work that is done is that, that isn't photographed or has publicity.. You do it because you want to make a better world. Those who shout how great they are in charitible work aren't doing it for the right reasons.
Colour swatches, I think. They're forming their own little Rainbow Coalition.
On the other hand, I hope their newest sprog gets Namibian citizenship because something about that would be very cool!
Alison - I honestly haven't been able to decide if they're TRYING to get people to want to photograph them and talk about them, or if they really would like to avoid some of the press. Like Britney, crying about wanting to be left alone by the paparazzi the other nite. I actually felt bad for her - why can't the camera men just leave these people alone when they're not trying to show their stuff!?
