• I'm sure the Jolie-Pitts can buy them off in no time.

• This is 100% horseshit if it's true. This child has had the opportunity to receive all her required shots, care, food, ect from Angelina. This child could only receive a spear from her grandmother and an opportunity to maybe be seen on the Discovery channel. This this child where she's at.

• How the hell did an african get ahold of In Touch? I call bullshit.

  By lil Jimmy, on November 14, 2007 13:19:37

• In Touch (aka the weekly Brangelina magazine) NEVER lies! They just change their story every week.

  By anonymous, on November 14, 2007 13:48:21

• A Spear? "How the hell did an African get ahold of In Touch?" Are you kidding me? I hate to break it to you all, but Joseph Conrad's version of the African continent wasn't exactly the most accurate one. Y'know?

• It would be a hell of a lot easier to just adopt a black american orphan instead

  By Sacrament, on November 14, 2007 13:50:09

• They better not take her baby. There is a family bond there; this baby doesn't have any type of bond with the birth mother. Go to hell!!!!

  By anonymous, on November 14, 2007 13:52:17

• This is 100% Angelina's fault. These wealthy celebrities think they can just barge into some third world country and purchase a minority child for the free publicity it gives them. If they are so interested in helping poor black kids there are plenty here in America that need homes but I guess adopting a kid from the hood doesn't quite have the same cache as grabbing a kid from Africa. *eyeroll*

• Oh, who fucking cares. They'll buy an Amazonian warrior baby from the Xingu tribespeople next.

• Damn, do people really think all africans live in grass/mud huts and throw spears at each other? Some of you guys need to go back to school.
  
  The picture of the lady claiming to be her mother or whatever looks exactly like her. Ethiopia is a very popular coutry for outside adoption. People are led to believe those kids/infants are orphans because their parents died of aids a good portion of them are there because of traffiking and kidnappings. The adoption there is so easy and the people who own the adoption centers know as well as the government know they can someway scam people out of money.

• Oh no! Angelina Jolie might not be able to exploit one of her kids anymore. What a shame...

  By Tony, on November 14, 2007 14:58:57

• What's traffiking? What's a coutry? People who live in huts shouldn't throw spears at others that live in huts. That's right, I'm talking to you Prettyboy, ya fucking monkey. I think that the grandmother should go on the Maury show and do a DNA test!

  By Paris Hilton, on November 14, 2007 15:36:18

• Heee! You forgot to write about how the mother only left Zahara because she thought the baby was going to die. She couldn't get her enough food or something. so the mother "ran away". Seems reasonable enough.

  By anonymous, on November 14, 2007 15:37:09

  you're right tho...

  By T, on November 14, 2007 16:29:08

• They won't take her baby. Most "orphans" are not orphans at all. My daughter was adopted from Russia and both of her biological parents are alive. Their parental rights were taken away from them when they couldn't take care of her. Very common in 2nd and 3rd world countries. In fact MOST orphans are NOT orphaned at all.
  AJ will not lose her daughter.. total BS.

  I LOVE the underlying humor. People took this post at face-value, and obviously didn't read it thru.

• Zahara looks so precious in that picture
  
  Isn't this like the 3rd or 4th Zahara "mother" that came forward?

  By Musicisourhigh, on November 14, 2007 18:30:03

• Miss V is a cunt. I can smell it on Prettboys lips. Who the fuck are you? Thanks Miss manners for bringing the truth forward. I re-read the article and yup, your still a cunt.
  
  Angie, keep the kid and spoil her rotten!

• angie can pay for some very expensive lawyers. z's not going anywhere.

  By anonymous, on November 14, 2007 18:53:15

• I'm guessing the mom decided to cash in on the little brat she dropped off. If her child was so important to her she shouldn't have sold her away to some orphanage. But now she realizes she can make a whole bunch of money bribing Angie ...

  By anonymous, on November 14, 2007 18:54:35

• you npeople suck, angelina gave this child a chance at a better life,i honestly don't think that her adopting these children was for publicity.if z was still in africa her grandmother wouldn't be asking back for her. why now......why she waited so long.

  By anonymous, on November 14, 2007 19:44:13

• Miss V said "titter."

  By Missy Thrope, on November 14, 2007 22:37:32

• If her mom took her back, she'd be called Zahara Lebiso. However, having lived in Bel-Air, having tried Pinkberry, and having flown Virgin Atlantic First Class to London, the next 60 years in an Ethiopian village would be a small downer.

  By The Recovery Channel, on November 14, 2007 22:45:53

• The story is all BS to sell magazines; however, the real question behind that is "why do people buy children from the 3rd world like you go at the supermarket?": this is indeed shocking!

  By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 00:29:11

• Miss "v" is right. Some of you brangelina fanatics are taking this post wayyy too seriously.
  Oh no! God forbid the goddess angrelina's image of sainthood be besmirched in any way by some poor dirty african woman (who just happens to be the girl's mother).

• I also don't think this adoption had anything to do with publicity. People are just so darn cynical.
  
  Does In Touch ever go a week without a Angelina/Brad story?

  By In Love with Music, on November 15, 2007 06:15:02

• I'm tired of people criticizing people who have adopted children from other countries instead of America. What Angelina has done is a wonderful thing...who cares where the child is from? We're all human.

  By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 06:21:10

• The honest thing to do is to honor the request of the biological mother. The honest thing was in the first place not to adopt, but to provide the financial means for this child to be brought up in her own environment. As the comment above says: Ethiopia is not only mud! The entire behaviour of this clown wannabe mother Theresa (the latter please pardon me for the comparison!)is disrespectuful to the country where Zahara comes from and to the biological parents. Money can buy anything, right? So from the position of "money is power" some self proclaimed mother is depriving a child from her parents. Not only husband stealer, but child stealer!!!! waht a shame!

  By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 08:01:07

• I actually laughed out loud at "the only africa Z wants is Epcot Africa" - f'ing hilarious.
  
  Yeah, Z's not going anywhere. Not even if both parents magically appeared with notarized birth certifs and matching blood samples.

• Does In Touch ever go a week without a Angelina/Brad story?
  
  I think I remember seeing one week that they were not the cover story. Must've been a mistake at the printers.

  By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 08:28:33

• I don't know the laws in Ethiopia, but generally if you give up your child, that means that child is legally not your responsibility and is up for adoption. I'm not sure where people are getting the idea that the only "available" children are those with dead parents. Plenty of mothers in the US and elsewhere give up their children for adoption because they can't care for them, are too young, too poor, etc. Maybe they regret their decision later, but according to the law, too bad. It would be nice if Jolie gave Zahara the opportunity to meet her grandmother/mother/whatever, but I'm pretty sure (again, I'm not an Ethiopian law expert) she has no legal obligation to "give her back."

  By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 08:33:15

• 'The honest thing was in the first place not to adopt, but to provide the financial means??'
  
  What a load of BS. If someone wants to give a child real love and a home and family rather than throwing money at the kid, they have every right to and they're no less honest for it.
  If Angelina had adopted a kid from anywhere else but america you people would be all over that too, but tons of americans adopt from overseas. Get a grip.
  Also, this biological mother thing is crap.

  By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 09:28:29

• I remember went that happened.

  By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 10:36:21

• Did anyone even read the quote? wanting your daughter to "see where she is from" is not at all the same as asking for her back. They just hope that baby Z will know her roots.

  By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 10:56:26

• This story is a hoax - supposedly some reporter paid Zahara's "family" to come forward and claim her. Gotta love those paps!

  By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 11:50:33

• The skank probably made it up and gave it to the media so people would feel sorry for her and see her bomb movies! Probably the most accurate version!

  By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 13:51:54

• Judging by the photos, this woman has to be Z's birth mother, or sibling. You can see what Zahara will look like as an adult by looking at this woman's photo. I say Z should be returned to her family and AJ and Brad can then adopt a needy American kid from the Ozarks

  By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 17:30:07

• They should both stand a couple yards away from Z and see who she comes to first.
  
  A very logical solution.

  By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 20:38:49

• According to the UN, any kid that has lost *ONE* or both parents is an AIDS Orphan. So technically, she is. She probably was put there because the father died and the mother had no income, not even the standard income around there of about $500 per YEAR.

  By anonymous, on November 15, 2007 23:33:55

• I DON'T UNDERSTAND WHY THEY KEEP SHOWING HER OLD PICUTURES, PLEASE USE HER RECENT PICTURE, IS IT BECAUSE SHE HAS GOTTEN OLD AND UGLY NOW.

  By anonymous, on November 16, 2007 00:01:04

• lots of people who arent related look alike. some woman happening to look like Zahara Jolie-Pitt does not prove anything at all.
  
  And November 15, 2007 08:01:07 : its dishonest to adopt? So youre saying children don't deserve loving full time parents who are capable of providing for them financially?
  
  and as for this "keep it from the US" attitude a few of you have expressed about adoptions, the US foster care system, while flawed, at least aims at feeding clothing and educating american children, whereas in 3rd world/developing countries these resourses arent usually available to children of deceased, diseased, impoverished or unfit parents.
  
  I read Zahara was dangerously underweight at the time of her adoption, so god knows if she'd have starved to death if she'd not been adopted.
  
  Not that you care, she wasn't born in the US, so therefore her life is worth less, but maybe you should put your money where your mouth is and become a foster parent to an American kid?

  By anonymous, on November 16, 2007 00:27:45

• OH MY GOD! ANGELINA IS SUCKING OUT ZAHARA'S BRAIN IN PICTURE 1!
  
  Some THATS why she needs a constant supply of third world children... Angelina needs baby brains to keep her lips inflated!

  By anonymous, on November 16, 2007 02:04:11

• Maybe you should stop making a mediocre actress an object of worship and get a clue.

  By anonymous, on November 16, 2007 09:23:08

• I confess my total opposition for most international adoptions when parents are perfectly capable of having children of their own or when there are amply adoptees available of identical nationality. Obviously Jolie can do whatever she feels like; let's face it, today money matters and not muchelse does. At this point, however, Jolie would be within her rights to fight to keep the child with her andthat is what I'd do if I were in her place.

  By anonymous, on November 16, 2007 16:44:43

• To me, Z looks a lot like S, which leads to my theory that Angie had Z cloned so that she looks like herself and her bio siblings. It took Angie some time to find her and take custody of her.
  
  Aside from silliness, isn't six months the deadline for a bio parent to legally claim their child be returned?
  
  These people, to be blunt, are nothing but pieces of shit who want money and will lie, cheat, steal, kill or use innocent children without regard to these children's well being, to money monger.
  
  They are no better than jackals fighting over rotten meat. Send Z back to that living hell of a country. She'll be raped and pregnant at age ten and left for dead, starving, probably as soon as she goes back to Ethiopia.
  
  I think there should be a "leave me the fuck alone" clause in all adoption papers from all third world countries, with a "shut the fuck up" clause in place six months after the adoption.
  
  This is the kind of nonsense that makes Americans hesitant to adopt, when there are millions of children needing homes and love. These countries are just as ungrateful for the US aid we send and the UN food that is sent. Sickening.
  
  Anon 23 08, yes, Angelina IS mediocre, bomb after bomb movies. My parents rented "A Mighty Heart" and couldn't even watch it because every other word was "fuck."
  
  In the pics from this new movie she looks HORRIBLE, death on two legs. Someone or something is responsible for a once most beautiful woman in the world changing into a hag.
  
  I'd like to go to a Jolie movie, but am sick of shoot 'um up, chronic cursing, drawn out plots that put me to sleep. For an Oscar winning actress, the past few years have been shameful performances and glaring proof all is not well with Jolie. Her globetrotting and whatever else she's doing are clearly affecting her concentration and ability to ACT. Obviously, her heart is not in her career, probably not in her love relationship, and also, sadly, not with her kids and charities. Something's got to give.
  
  Brad Pitt did this to Maniston by making her act in bomb after bomb long after they divorced; now she's out with another piece of crap "romance" movie. Many call Angelina the boss in that relationship: Brad Pitt is a movie making PIMP and is running Jolie into the ground. I'll bet he's behind her completely tied up in making movies he produces for the next seven or eight years. Ms. Independent is now Ms. The Little Lady, controlled by Mr. Pitt. No wonder she seems miserable. Perhaps she shouldn't have rushed into acquiring so many children so fast, and should NOT have added HIS name to her children's? Haste, haste. Now freebird is trapped. Forever. And it shows.
  
  Is it any wonder Angie is a scarecrow, faints all the time, and looks absolutely horrible, as if she's got a fatal disease. But she keeps chugging out these crappy movies..even making a mockery of her good friend's story. And Brad is assaulting Hollywood and pressing for Angie (or himself) to get an Oscar for that piece of garbage travesty of a movie.
  
  OK, enough said. If there are too many words, then don't read it, dears. You can always hit the up down x buttons.
