It was a trick
Angelina did not give birth
So remember last week when I posted that thing about Angelina Jolie having her babies? Entertainment Tonight claimed a source “close to the actress” confirmed that Jolie had given birth in France. Jolie’s rep called bullshit and over the next few days we had a gay old time laughing and pointing at ET. But who duped the news outlet? Jolie’s law firm has put the media on notice that a “random impostor” posing as Jolie’s assistant has been dishing out “fictionalized tips.” From the New York Daily News:
The legal letter warned, “This is a fake. A scam on the media and the public.” The real name of the person who posed as Jolie’s assistant - and duped “Entertainment Tonight” into reporting the premature birth of the Brangelina twins - has been located, we hear. A source tells The News’ Nancy Dillon that Jolie’s camp is investigating whether the unnamed impersonator “actively sought out” the attention of the media or “simply replied” to inquiries sent by an “ET” producer.

It’s pretty obvious who the “random impostor” was. Her first name begins with Jennifer and her last name ends with Aniston. Another clue the fake announcement was made by Jen: the email’s originated from a Baskin-Robbins. Of course this trickery could have been orchestrated by the originator of tasteless humor and over the top pranks: Ashton Kutcher Clay Aiken’s stylist.
