It seems to become a trend among the celebrities; pimping out the newborns for a nice amount of spare cash in the bank. Not long ago it was J-Lo who pimped out her newborn for six million dollars on the cover of People’s Magazine. Now the news is going around that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie will pimp out their newborn twins for a whopping 14 million dollars.
I find it a bit ironic that the celebs have no problem selling the rights to the pictures of their new born while so many of them are complaining about how unethical it is for the paparazzi to take pictures of their kids. I can understand that the celebs want the paparazzi to back off and leave their kids alone. I would feel the same way. BUT… don’t pimp out your kids and then complain at a later stage that you don’t want to see your kids in the magazines.
According to the news articles the 14 million dollars that Brangelina will receive for their baby pictures will be donated into a fund that will focus on helping children all around the world. You would think that both movie stars would have enough star power to raise the money in a different way than pimping out their newborns.


So Brangelina finally cashed in on their gossip empire… smart move
So in their shoes you would rather have the paparazzi chase for the photos for nothing rather than being paid for them and having photos taken under your own terms? I see nothing wrong with that, as what ever they do their kids will be in those magazines anyway.
