Angelina Jolie is very close to her children. They all seem to adore their mom. Considering all but the twins (Vivienne and Knox) are teenagers, that?s quite a feat. Teenagers are angsty and moody by nature. Maybe the Jolie-Pitt kids are angsty and authority-defying too, but in public, they just seem like happy, well-adjusted kids who have a great relationship with their mom. Whatever happened on that plane in 2016 was a wake-up call and Angelina got them therapy and she took time off work to make sure everyone was okay. Maleficent: Mistress of Evil covers the subjects of motherhood, growing up and leaving the nest. So of course Angelina got some questions about how she is handling motherhood these days. Some quotes:
Raising her children well: ?I feel I like being an artist [is important] of course, but I?d like the other aspects of my work to take over my life a little bit more in the years ahead. Really I just want to raise my children well, they?re all at those very special ages where you don?t want to miss a moment and just get it right before they?re out in the world on their own and having to face it. You hope you get all the good stuff in, so that?s my main focus. But I have some other crazy ideas for future things, let?s see what happens.?
What she learned from Maleficent: ?That [parenthood is] not easy, that even Maleficent can have trouble and worry whether she?s a good enough mum. I think what it means to be a mum and I think in her mind she has this idea, I did before I had kids, that to be a perfect mother we have to be a perfect person. that?s not true. You just have to do your best and be willing to put your child before you, and I think she has that. So she loves being a mum, I love being a mum.
[From Marie Claire UK & The Daily Mail]
?I think in her mind she has this idea, I did before I had kids, that to be a perfect mother we have to be a perfect person. that?s not true.? This is true. Not that I know from experience I?m not a mother but from what I?ve seen, there is never a perfect mother, because there is no perfect person. Everybody is just making it up and trying to figure it out as they go along. It?s so weird to think about Jolie raising her kids in LA, the same city where hyper-competitive mothering led to federal indictments, right? Angelina would never, because she doesn?t need to compete through her children, nor does she have any desire to have them leave the nest completely unprepared. The Jolie-Pitt children turning out to be well-adjusted, nice kids wasn?t what was predicted for this brood.

Aunt Becky is screwed!! Hahahaha. Am I being too mean? It?s just that Lori Loughlin truly thought she could ?manage? federal felony charges and wave them away with leaks to People Magazine. She thought she could wear white and talk about her faith-based life. She thought her white-woman privilege would protect her. And? it?s all blown up in her face. Shortly after Lori and her husband Mossimo were initially charged with many crimes (for their part in the college-admissions scheme), federal prosecutors offered her a plea deal which would have still involved prison time. She turned them down. The prosecutors added more charges, and Lori was already facing 10-20 years in prison if convicted. Well? now prosecutors have added additional charges. As I said, Aunt Becky is f-cked.
Felicity Huffman is halfway through her prison sentence for her role in the nationwide college bribery scheme, but Lori Loughlin could be looking at a lot longer stretch if found guilty for getting her daughters into USC under false pretenses. Having plead not guilty this spring to various federal charges from ?Operation Varsity Blues,? the former Fuller House star and her husband Mossimo Giannulli are now facing a new bribery claim from the office of the U.S Attorney for Massachusetts. A new charge that potentially adds a decade more behind bars to the couple if found guilty at the trial expected next year.
In total, Loughlin and Giannulli are staring down the long road of 50 years in prison and around $1.23 million in fines each. As new of the scandal broke and has grown over the past several months, both of the duo?s daughters have left USC ? the high-profile school their parents apparently played fast and loose with the law to get them into.
?Today?s charges are the result of ongoing investigation in the nationwide college admissions case,? said U.S. Attorney Andrew Lelling Tuesday after the new indictment against the once high-flying couple, STX founder Bill McGlashan, Jr and eight other deep pocketed parents was made public. ?Our goal from the beginning has been to hold the defendants fully accountable for corrupting the college admissions process through cheating, bribery and fraud. The superseding indictments will further that effort.?
To be specific, with no new arraignment date set yet, the 11 parents are charged in the third indictment with conspiring ?to commit federal program bribery by bribing employees of the University of Southern California (USC) to facilitate their children?s admission. In exchange for the bribes, employees of the university allegedly designated the defendants? children as athletic recruits ? with little or no regard for their athletic abilities ? or as members of other favored admissions categories.?
[From Deadline]
Well, ain?t that something. Before now, I bet Lori thought her big plan to white-church-lady her way out of a conviction was going to work. She thought if she batted her eyelashes and cried a little on the stand, maybe a jury would take pity on her. But the charges keep piling up. Lori and Mossimo are going to be out of money just on legal fees before this whole mess is over, not to mention all of the fines they?ll have to pay if they?re convicted of even HALF of these charges.

For the past five years (!!), we?ve been getting updates on Nick Loeb?s crazy ?custody? lawsuit against Sofia Vergara. Loeb and Vergara dated on-and-off for years, and at one point they were even engaged. During one of their ?on? periods, they discussed having a child via gestational carrier, and they went so far as to create embryos and have them implanted into a carrier. The fertilization didn?t ?take? and at that point, Loeb and Vergara were on the outs. They broke up, and Vergara became involved with Joe Manganiello, and now they?re happily married. Ever since Vergara left him, Loeb has been suing her for ?custody? of the remaining embryos they created. Vergara has been fighting this stalker fool for five years, even as Loeb went shopping for friendly jurisdictions to hear his stupid case. Well, even the friendliest jurisdiction thinks he?s bonkers.
Nick Loeb?s wild, never-ending frozen embryo custody case against his ex-fiance Sofa Vergara has ended in Louisiana for now ? with a judge dismissing his claims. Page Six reported last year that Vergara?s ex ?moved? to the Bayou State in a bid to win his suit there, since he hoped Louisiana would recognize the unborn embryos? rights.
The case bounced to various Louisiana courts before landing in the 25th Judicial District Court for Plaquemines Parish, where Judge Kevin D. Conner handed Vergara a big victory. Conner dismissed Loeb?s case on Oct. 11 ?with prejudice,? Page Six has learned, ruling in Vergara?s favor on nine motions and decreeing all trial exhibits except one be unsealed. Loeb was fighting to keep the documents private.
Loeb also argued he?d lived at two Louisiana residences outside New Orleans on ?Zeta Drive? and ?Protti Drive.? But according to court papers, the judge found that Loeb ?testified he did not spend one night at the Protti Drive apartment and that he did not furnish it. He hired someone to receive the furniture and decorate the apartment on Zeta. Mr. Loeb has never voted in Plaquemines Parish ? [He] admitted that the utilities at his Belle Chase apartment were cut off due to nonpayment. He does not know any of his neighbors on Zeta.? The judge said that Loeb ?does not operate any businesses? or ?have a bank account? there.
?According to Mr. Loeb, he resides everywhere and nowhere. He arrived in Louisiana the day before the deposition, traveling from New York,? and while Loeb lived in suburban Belle Chasse, ?he stayed for several days at the Ritz-Carlton hotel in New Orleans.? The judge also pointed out that during the time Loeb alleged he lived in Louisiana, he had a daughter with another girlfriend, but the baby was born in New York, and ?the child and her mother currently reside in Barcelona,? where Loeb has a $400,000 yacht.
Loeb?s lawyer told us, ?We will be appealing the court?s decision,? and said the embryos ?are human beings with every right to their lives and every right to be born.? The couple split in 2014.
[From Page Six]
I mean, it sounds like the judge threw the case out on a massive technicality, but that?s good enough for me and I suspect it?s good enough for Sofia Vergara too. Loeb thought he could game the system by buying/renting property in Louisiana with the sole purpose of establishing residency for his unhinged lawsuit. And the judge says that Loeb couldn?t even do that right. I hope this is the end of this emotionally abusive mess, but probably not. Loeb will probably end up shopping for a new jurisdiction.
