Angelina Jolie’s Fake Assistant Lied About Her Giving Birth JOSSIP REPORTS How to explain how Entertainment Tonight so very badly bungled the EXCLUSIVE!!! story about Angelina Jolie giving birth last week? (And then their website “crashed“; maybe they were hiding from their screw up?) Well, it wasn’t entirely their fault. Jossip hears that somebody has been impersonating Angelina’s assistant Holly Goline, using a fake BlackBerry email address and sending erroneous reports to the press. Jolie’s attorneys at cease-and-desist happy firm Lavely & Singer are said to be circulating a letter among entertainment outlets explaining the situation. And the worst part? This impostor has been sending fake information to the media for the past year. Time to start counting up all those outrageously untrue items! Says the letter: “A random individual has engaged in a scheme to intentionally harm my client and deceive her fans, the public and the media through illegal and tortuous impersonation of Ms Jolie’s long-time assistant, Holly. “The individual who claims to be, and to whom the media has relied upon as, a ‘reliable source’ is not my client’s assistant, nor does the email address belong to my client’s assistant.” And on the other side.... NEW YORK - The birth of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's twins is turning into the type of mystery that might make a good movie one day. The executive producer for "Entertainment Tonight" said Monday that she wanted to "see how this story plays out" before retracting a report that the twins had been born, despite a denial from Pitt's manager and a claim that someone might be posing as Jolie's personal assistant to fool reporters. The TV show reported Friday that twin girls had been born, identifying its source as a person in the delivery room, and quoted another website giving the babies' alleged names. Rival news organizations quickly shot the story down. The Associated Press, which had picked up the "Entertainment Tonight" report after talking to executives at the show about their source, later quoted Pitt's manager saying the "ET" story was not true. In the world of celebrity journalism, it may be the biggest story of the year. "This is an absolutely huge, huge story for us," said Sarah Ivens, editor in chief of OK! magazine. "Essentially you have two of the most beautiful, famous people in the world. We've all seen they've had one baby, Shiloh, and it is the coolest, most adorable baby on the planet. And this time they're having two? It can't get any better." It was "pandemonium" at the offices of Us Weekly when the "Entertainment Tonight" report was posted, said Dina Sansing, the magazine's entertainment director. People magazine was first to report that the story was not true. Us Weekly checked its own sources and concluded the same, Sansing said. On Monday, Jolie's lawyers advised news organizations that someone was posing as Holly Goline, Jolie's personal assistant, and had sent out false information about the movie star. The source for the "Entertainment Tonight" report was an e-mail supposedly from Goline, said an executive at the show who did not want to be identified for competitive reasons. Was "Entertainment Tonight" punk'd? Perhaps not, the executive said. The show initiated its own contact with Goline after hearing rumours the babies had been born in France, said the executive. The person who made the contact was an "ET" producer who had worked with Goline while at CNN and kept Goline's e-mail address, the executive said. The executive forwarded an e-mail exchange that appeared to support this version of events. In the e-mails, Goline - or the impostor - said she was there for the deliveries and everyone was doing well. Pressed by "ET" for more information, the person said she could say no more. "Entertainment Tonight" had removed its story from its website after the questions were raised. No mention was made of the story on Monday's show. "Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are friends of 'Entertainment Tonight.' We have spent years cultivating that friendship, working with them side by side on many of their projects," Linda Bell Blue, executive producer for "Entertainment Tonight" and its sister broadcast, "The Insider," said in a statement Monday. "We wish them and their children well. We are waiting to see how this story plays out." Millions of dollars could be at stake. After Shiloh was born, Pitt and Jolie were at the forefront of a growing movement by celebrities to auction off exclusive rights to first public pictures of their babies (Pitt and Jolie donated the money to charity). Sometimes exclusive details on the birth come with these rights. Ivens said OK! would be interested in exclusive pictures of the babies, but would not discuss whether there were any negotiations to obtain them. Jolie has said the babies are due in August. Ivens said OK! grew more comfortable over the weekend that the "Entertainment Tonight" story was wrong because of other clues. There were no reports of flowers being delivered to hospitals, or grandparents flying in, she said, and Pitt was seen attending a sporting event over the weekend - an unlikely spot for a new father of premature twins."

I've seen multiple photos over past months of her looking like that. It's not altered. Pete Doherty is starting to show the same marks on his face. I don't know what it is except drug-related.

Wow, if that's real, that's horrible. Gosh, it resembles Kaposi's Sarcoma more to me than meth pocks. I sure hope not, I love her music.

OK, so what are meth pocks? Is that what meth-heads get from picking at their skin? And I thought she used heroin and coke, not meth? Although, I guess, when you go to heroin and coke, meth isn't out of the question.

Meth is a stimulant and unfortunately can be mixed with a lot of other chemicals (even fertilizers). Somehow or other, it causes users to pick at themselves uncontrollably.

Ack! I'd like to save photos like that to show to DD when she's a teen and warn her about the horrors of drug abuse. Yikes! As for Angelina -- I hope those babies haven't been born yet. They need to cook a little longer and get bigger first!

OMG WOW Amy REHAB now!!!! I think heroin causes some similiar effects as meth. Plus it has a lot of impurities and just steals your life force in general.

Tigerfan, I believe that's the "medical excuse" that Amy's camp is trying to give to what I believe, and many others believe, to actually be meth pock marks. Also, she supposedly put a cigarette out on her face after being told to put it out in a restaurant. I believe there was quite a few witnesses to this. She started wearing thick makeup to cover her face marks.

This looks like what is on her face: Ecthyma is a more serious form of impetigo in which the infection penetrates deeper into the skin's second layer (dermis).

Okay maybe if I post that A.W. pic will roll over into hell where it belongs. Ashley Judd Speaks at UN against human trafficking UNITED NATIONS - Ashley Judd says she decided to lend her voice against human trafficking after she "stumbled upon" the issue while visiting brothels, slums, hospices and other clinics in 12 nations to promote public health. "I know that the unheard are helped when they are heard. I know that compassionate listening helps me, and my goal was to help the U.N. help them," the actress said at a news conference Tuesday at U.N. headquarters in New York. Judd, a two-time Golden Globe nominee whose screen credits include "De-Lovely" and "Kiss the Girls," also has used her celebrity to focus attention on HIV/AIDS prevention to young adults around the world. She has been serving as a global ambassador for YouthAIDS, an education and prevention program of the group Population Services International. "I do think that all of the issues are fundamentally connected. They all spring out of gender inequality," she told reporters. About 2.5 million people worldwide, most of them women and children, are thought to be victims of the $32 billion annual industry of human trafficking, according to U.N. figures. The General Assembly met Tuesday for a "thematic debate" on the subject. ETA nope.
