Brad and Ang Bullshit

Page Six ran the following story:

Namibia's National Society for Human Rights (NSHR) is calling Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt "colonial overlords" who "used heavy-handed and brutal tactics" to pressure the government into providing extraordinary restrictions on the media. A NSHR spokesman said, "To shut down a national border so she can give birth in peace is a massive abuse of power." Foreign reporters had to be approved by Jolie and Pitt before they were issued visas. South African journalist John Liedenberg had his passport and camera equipment confiscated, and was later arrested on public property and charged with trespassing. The NSHR said the Namibian government should be spending more money on its own pregnant mothers, "who go without medical care, food and shelter! But government can afford to spend thousands of taxpayers' money on the so-called protection of the privacy for a filthy rich Hollywood family! Who is fooling whom?"

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie might as well just start their own plantation those colonial overlords. By Namibia National Society for Human Rights they mean Jennifer Aniston, right? I wonder if Shiloh's birth really did cost the Namibian government thousands of dollars. The US dollar is worth 7.25986 Namibian dollars. Brad and Angelina did donate a measley (in terms of their net worth) $300,000 to Namibian hospital or some shit. I think they thought they were helping. It's not like anyone America talked about Namibia pre-Shiloh aside from geography students.

PS. According to Celebrity Baby Blog, this is supposedly a picture from their baby shower. Someone out there claims to have 450 more pictures of their Namibian stay and they're shopping around for a good offer. I can only imagine the lame-ass baby shower game that required those feather boa things.
