Isn’t she so cute. Though I don’t get paying 4 million dollars for these pics, all babies look the same! People are saying she has Angelina’s lips and Brad’s eyes! :astonished:

Having said all that I did go to two different places looking for this magazine to see the pictures… :stuck_out_tongue: I personally think she should’ve been named Nouvel Shiloh instead of Shiloh Nouvel…but that’s just me.

Welcome back, PG.

From that picture it would appear that the baby and Angelina each have their own distinct set of lips. Besides, if the baby had Angelina’s lips then they’d be a bit big - no?

Yep, that’s a baby alright. Personally I don’t think it looks any more like Brad or Angelina than a dozen other babies that I’ve seen. People grow up to look like their parents, sure, but they don’t look like them when they’re born.

I think that they should have named it Ubiquitous Perpetuity God (nee Enrique Silberg), but I’ve got a cruel streak when it comes to naming babies. I’m planning on naming mine after fascist dictators and obscure novelists.

i may get hunted down by some other ilp members for expressing this particular opinion… but…

babies are ugly. all of them, every last one. sure, when they get to be 1 1/2, 2 years old, they’re cute. but babies themselves are ugly.

SIATD-

I think Ubiquitous is asking for a series of schoolyard beatings but to each his own. Thanks for the welcome. Yes I agree that she basically looks like-- every baby ever born.

Creation Imperfect-babies are ugly. They look like little aliens. Puppies are much cuter than babies are if you ask me. Babies do get cuter when they grow up, especially when they start saying inane things at 3 or 4. Having said that, Shiloh does seem pretty cute, maybe I’m being biased due to her gentic lineage though–I’m pretty sure I am.

If the baby did have Brad’s eyes, it would give us some wonderful new insights into the mind/body problem.

not all babies are ugly, most of them are just babies. there are some really ugly babies out there (my old boss had the ugliest baby ever), the rest are just average, with very few good looking ones

i thought my daughter was just kinda average (though i never said so out loud), though many said, “she is just so cute.” i always assumed that they were just saying that to be nice.

actually… babies are scientifically considered to be cute… that is, designed to be cute and draw the attention and affection of adults

When they’re first born…not so cute…

Did anyone see the Britney Spears interview?

PG,

Funnily enough, the few hours of TV that I watch do not include interviews with Britney. Nor should yours. There are better things on TV and, more to the point, better things for you to do with your time.

I expect a 10,000 word dissertation on the connection between Nietzsche’s attempted dissolution of Christianity and Aristotle’s Virtue Ethics by next Friday, and no more Britney Spears…

What size font do you want SIATD?..

Anyway, Britney is about 6-7 months pregnant now and will have her 2nd baby in September. She insists that she and her hubby are happy and NOT getting divorced. She stays at home and cooks and cleans and makes really good tea. She won’t make another album for a long time… :frowning: Oh and she gave up Kabbalah…

having nothing to do with anything I must ask the question:

what do corn farmers play when they can’t play soccer?

Kabbalah

(booo)

Angelina Jolie gave her first interview since the birth of her daughter. She says that she and Brad plan to adopt another baby and they aren’t sure from where. She also said that she was relieved to discover that her love for Shiloh was no different from her love for her other children. She said that Zahara is a little jealous of Shiloh , while Maddox thinks she is his new toy.

PG,

Why do you take such an interest in this? Do you not have something better to do with your time?

seriously. not to be mean,… but it’s embarassing.

Britney is naked on Harper’s Bazaar this month…

Brittney is really turning into an ugmo.

She doesn’t even make music anymore, why is her life of any important whatsoever?

She sells a middle of the road, settling down with kids after the crazy days of pop lifestyle and image to kids. Reducing women to suburban walking wombs fits right in with certain people’s agendas.

Only a home-video sextape can save her now, though every rumour of one has thus far turned out to be false. We live in hope.

I think that no matter how hard we prayed the the Spears-train would go on forever :unamused: the chu-chu of impossibly skinny hips and mediocre pop music had to go away some day.
