Angelina Jolie in Vanity Fair Magazine July 2008 issue

Angelina Jolie is very captivating in this July 2008 issue cover of Vanity Fair Magazine. She talks about her childhood, motherhood, growing international family and many more...

Meanwhile, the recent rumored reports about her giving birth last Sunday in France is not true according to her representative.

Here are some excerpt of her Vanity Fair interview:
Angelina Jolie on being pregnant:
“I love it. It makes me feel like a woman. It makes me feel that all the things about my body are suddenly there for a reason. It makes you feel round and supple, and to have a little life inside you is amazing. Also, I’m fortunate. I think some women have a different experience depend-ing on their partner. I think that affects it. I happen to be with somebody who finds pregnancy very sexy. So that makes me feel very sexy.”

Angelina Jolie on her international family:
“When I was growing up I wanted to adopt, because I was aware there were kids that didn’t have parents. It’s not a humanitarian thing, because I don’t see it as a sacrifice. It’s a gift. We’re all lucky to have each other. I look at Shiloh—because, obviously, physically, she is the one that looks like Brad and I when we were little—and say, ‘If these were our brothers and sisters, how much would we have known by the time we were six that it took into our 30s and 40s to figure out?’ I suppose I’m giving them the childhood I always wished I had.”

Angelina Jolie on Shiloh’s birth:
“We were in this little hospital in Africa when Shi was born. I don’t think there was anybody else in the hospital. It was just a little cottage, the three of us. It ended up being the greatest thing…. I had a C-section and I found it fascinating. I didn’t find it a sacrifice and I didn’t find it a painful experience. I found it a fascinating miracle of what a body can do.”

Angelina Jolie on nannies:
“We don’t ever have anybody spend the night. We may have to adjust that when the next one comes. But we do have ladies that work with us, and they’re also from different cultures and back-grounds. One lady’s a Vietnamese teacher—wonderful. One is of Congolese descent from Bel-gium. Another is from the States and is really creative and does art programs.”

Angelina Jolie on artists as parents:
“Artists raise their kids differently,” she said. “We communicate to the point where we probably annoy our children. We have art around the house, we have books, we go to plays, we talk. Our focus is art and painting and dress-up and singing. It’s what we love. So I think you can see how artists in some way raise other artists.”

nais kong lumipad na may sariling bagwis
nais kong marating pangarap nang mabilis
nais kong manguna sa mga maya
para makita ang bagong umaga
ngunit kailan pa

Simple but strong words from MET Tathione's camp against Gabby Concepcion

Veteran Filipino actor Gabby Concepcion is very busy with his career and court cases left and right.

It seems Gabby's recent problem with Jobert Sucaldito about the whitening product failed endorsement (MET Tathione) will not end there.

MET Tathione manager said in an interview with PEP that they can give the P5 million endorsement fee that Gabby's camp is asking but they feel he's not worth it and spending that kind of money to him is not a good idea. MET Tathione manager also added that they rather to invest and spend it to a younger artist.

Gabby Concepcion signed a deal with Lucida DS worth P5 million. Lucida DS is a direct competitor of MET Tathione.

In a related note, It also seems that MET Tathione won the quality recognition of their product against Lucida DS. In a report by Korina Sanchez on TV Patrol, she revealed that the actual glutathione content of most of the local whitening products in the market is way less than the claimed content posted on its bottle. MET Tathione products are qualified and they passed the test conducted by Philippine Institute of Pure and Applied Chemistry (PIPAC). In the said news Lucida DS and some other products in the market failed to pass the test and they discover small amount of Glutathione content on their product.

Meanwhile, Richard Gutierrez has signed a endorsement deal with MET Tathione and their will be another female artist scheduled to sign a deal with MET management.
