Brangelina Donate $2 Mil to Open Health Clinic in Zahara's Home Country

bradangieethiopia.jpg

The most famously charitable couple on the planet is at it again - Access Hollywood reports that the Jolie-Pitt foundation has made a generous donation of 2 million dollars to go towards starting a program to help treat drug-resistant tuberculosis in children and adults.

Pitt said in a statement:

“The fact that poor people continue to die in our world today of TB, a curable disease, because of lack of access to drugs and care is unacceptable. It is our hope when Zahara is older she will take responsibility of the clinic and continue its mission.”

The couple has also donated money to a similar center in Cambodia, the birthplace of their oldest son, Maddox.



Guess they're working down the line - can we expect more announcements for charitable centers in Vietnam, Namibia and France?

Why do they always donate and announce? Can't they do charity quietly? Every one knows they are charity buffs. And why is it that they donate when their movies are coming out? Pitt has just released burn after reading and I notice he is the one who is making the statment. When Angelina's movie wanted was out, they donated to Iraq and New Orleans. On both occassions they made sure they made statements to announce. These people nauseate me exploting charity like that.

Zahara should be allowed to chose her own destiny. She may want to be a porn star like her mother Angie was. Don't put pressure on the poor kids just because you adopted them. I have not heard them deciding on what Shiloh should be doing.

Oh yes, Brad has a movie coming out....

When will they announce their wedding? That's right Brad will never marry you Angie!!!

More of Brad and Angie Jo seeking publicity for another movie coming out "The Changeling" with AJ. I figure the profit gained from all this publicity more than makes up for donating the principle dollars invested as they get to keep the interest earned on such large amounts...very profitable PLUS the publicity....smart....

Oh please.... the woman is at home sitting on her newly lifted ass. She hasn't fully healed she needed something to get her some publicity. They like to announce that they are giving money, I would like to know how much of that money they actually do give.

Donate more Angelina, you can. Not only what the intrest on your fortune is. Give something that you feel.
THAT is giving from the heart.

What a "one trick pony" these two have become. Brad has a movie out and, rather than rely on their talent and ability to make a good movie to sell tickets, they must augment their potential by either, having/buying babies or announcing some "donation" that one or both have made. Since Angie took the twin bullet for that uber-violent film she made and, you can only have 1 c-section per year, it was inevitable that the "donation rant" was up next. I bet the next "film announcement" will be that they've bought another African baby to "mirror" Zeeeee.

Is that all they can give from the money made off their kids? I am disappointed. Enough of them already. Bring some more interesting celebs.

First of all, your comprehension skills are predictably non-existent, but I'd expect nothing less from the mad dog middle aged homely JEALOUS fans of TV lame Jen Aniston. It wasn't Brad & Angelina who 'announced' ANYTHING you stupid twahts - it was the GLOBAL HEALTH ORG who will use the JP donation to BUILD the clinic. THEY announced it so they can bring awareness to the problem of AIDS & TB and hopefully get additional monies to the clinic. HELLO, ya stupid f*cks. Wow. I never knew the hostility that still lurked among the few (cuz you know it's just 2 ugly hags posting over & over) JEALOUS shrewish hateful racist homely middle aged fans of the UGLY no-talent BORING lame DUMB asss TV sit-com hack, Jen Aniston. That is one poisoned toxic sick b*tch to have incurred all this wrath against two people who came after her failed REBOUND hookup with Brad. I KNOW that man must get down to the dry heaves if ever he even THINKS about laying eyes on her UGLY big chinned beady eyed low foreheaded thin lipped orange leather transgendered looking MUG!! How is it possible that you evil rancid c*nts go beserk with rage over Brad & Angelina saving AIDS & TB afflicted babies and children in their daughter's country of birth (especially since they've been saying they were going to do it for the last few years )YET you find NOTHING wrong with the chain smoking tanning salon addicted cigarette fiend, Jen Aniston having the GALL to volunteer for a tri-broadcast cancer telethon photo-op and read a teleprompter worse than a kindergartener!!! Here that walking ashtray was trying to steal the limelight from TRUE survivors Swayze and Applegate - it was SICK. Now THAT, is a fake horrid two-bit low class UGLY famewh*ring c*nt if I ever saw one. B*tch only is charitable when she's holding Oprah's hand, the mealy mouthed lame fugly dumb asss. Yet Brad and Angelina have SAVED LIVES and get spit on by you shallow sick c*nts??? I hope karma bites all you ugly old b*tches and fans of MANiston in the asss HARD. You and she, deserve it.

Is that you Angelina writing all those nasty things about Jennifer?

Posted by: Just wondering?????


Hmmm...of the two women, my guess is if ANYONE, is posting on these life -sucking boards, it's the one who said she was addicted to tabloid gossip, who admitted she was overly concerned about what people say about her - didn't her PR guy just get 'found out' trying to scare up dates for her for yet MORE fake photo-op'd relationships, after getting dumped yet again....methinks THAT would be the b*tch scrolling celeb msg boards and enlisting her 'pals' to post nasty sh*t about Brad, angie and their family...all she does is tan, smoke and bleach her fuzzy dark brown hair. I'd say she has the time.

..yeah..like Jolie has the time or inclination to visit x17, lmao..funniest sh*t I've read all day. Yeah, maybe Angie pulls up this site as soon as she burps the twins, or maybe when she's taxing down the runway piloting her planes, or perhaps when she's on break at the UN or Council on Foreign Relations??

You weak b*tches need to realize, unlike Maniston, there are women who exist in the world who do NOT bother with stupidity and deeply shallow worthless sh*t.

İt always nice to read some news like this about them. They are focused on helping children and poor people.
The World Health Organization announced 8 million people became ill with tuberculosis and 2 million people die from the disease.Most of them in South of Africa.2 million dollars big money for to help them.They need this money.
Some people who say "Ange+Brad are donating when their movies come out" must read some news about their career.They will make 5+3 movies in 2009 and 2010.İf they will donate for some charity,will you say same words again?
They will make movies and they will donate for charity and you will never believe them.But the money always go to correct addresses.

I sometimes wish Aniston had been a grown up, and instead of making herself a victim and trying to get people to 'pick a side,' had wished Brad the best and moved on with her life, in a dignified way (see Uma, Reese, Nicole, etc) instead of giving that tell-all interview and playing the victim. We wouldn't have all this acrimony and stupid tabloid nonsense if she had. Although, she wouldn't be that relevant either. Who is she, if she's not 'poor Jen,' dumped for the beautiful girl. Ultimately it has been masterful PR. If it had been Tate Donovan, instead of 'Brad Pitt' that had split with her, we wouldn't know her from a bump on a log...no one cares, otherwise.

THIS STORY AGAIN? It's only $2 Million of the $15 Million they collected off of those babies and we're supposed to congratulate them? I guess they're running out of new ideas or their fax machines are stuck on "REDIAL".

Here's what I don't get...

FACTS: Brad & Jen released a statement that they were amicably splitting in Jan of 2005. They went on vacation together that same month, and it was said Brad even through her a birthday party in February. For a short time, people were saying that it was the friendliest happiest divorce in HW history.

Sometime in the spring Brad hooks up with Angelina, THEN Aniston goes apedoodoo.

However, Aniston has already said (in that VF interview) that Brad TOLD HER of his attraction and feelings for Angelina BEFORE they issued the 'official' split.

So my question is, she very obviously was NOT mad about the admission (or didn't care) as she went on vacation and let him throw her a party...KNOWING he was 'enchanted' (Courtney Cox's words) with Angelina.

So why the sudden turnaround?

There was no cheating, Aniston and her pals have said as much..she apparently for the sake of 'looks' wanted him to wait. To WAIT before he went after Angelina.

Brad did not.

That is the sole reason Aniston is playing her silly junior high games and grudge matches to this day. As usual, she pretended 'outrage' and shock that the 'marriage wasn't mourned.' hahaha. Like the shallow person she is she thought a split in Jan, and Brad having a relationship with AJ 4 MOS later made her 'look bad.'

It's all about looks with that one, she could give a sh-t about what Brad did or with who, as evidenced by her going on vacation with him, having parties etc, AFTER she knew he wanted out permanently, and liked Angelina Jolie.

Angelina, while recovering from her tummy tuck and bossing around her nannies, had PLENTY of time to come up with a better use of that money like DONATE IT TO LEHMANS AND SAVE 20,000 JOBS AND THE ENTIRE ECONOMY OF A NATION! Just think of all the positive publicity they would have gotten from that move and how many people would have seen Brad's film! Oh well, Brangie isn't THAT smart.

Brangelina don't even have enough money to go near Lehman. The pay out of the head of Lehman is more than Brangelina wealth combined. Obviously most of this money will not get to the clinic. They only released the statement to support Brad's movie burn after reading.

The children should be receiving the praise, afterall it is from the selling of their innocence that these two posers have this money to donate. Way to go brangie children!

what the hell with you shallow illiterate people hating on people who gives to the needy. Why don't you ugly bitches go after Maniston, Paris Hilton and other wannabe actress who do nothing but keep their bodies fit just so they could get a man. At least Brad & Angelina share what their fortune. Maniston recently just gave a handbag with her signature AS A DONATION TO A CERTAIN CHARITY .. WHAT A CHEAP HO!!

Poor Zee-not pretty enough to make $$ off of her photos, Angie resorts to genetially-generated infants to MAKE the $$ and buys babies, like Zee, to SPEND the money. Cute set-up!
