Yes folks the time has finally come. And baby makes five. Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt (which is actually a very pretty name) was born the night of May 27, 2006 in Namibia, Africa. No more details have been released at this time. The chosen one is finally amongst us. Now we eagerly await that first glimpse of the little one.
We can assume that Jennifer Aniston is royally pissed off at Brangelia for the birth of the "Golden Child," the same weekend her big film The Break Up opens. Once again we have the couple trying to steal her thunder. Look for Aniston to spend the weekend binge drinking with Vince Vaughn, to help mute the pain from the most likely poor box office receipts, and seeing the name Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt splashed all over the news.
The new parents, along with kids Maddox, 4, and Zahara, 1, have been staying at a luxury resort in Namibia since April, where their personal security team and Namibian police have shielded them from paparazzi.Last week, the Namibian government said foreign journalists wishing to cover the birth must have written permission from Pitt and Jolie to enter the country and obtain a work permit.
The new girl is the couple's first biological child. Jolie adopted Maddox from Cambodia in 2002 and Zahara from Ethiopia last year. Pitt is in the process of legally adopting both children.
The baby is the latest step in a life-changing year during which Pitt and Jolie went from costars (in last summer's slick crime thriller Mr. and Mrs. Smith) to supercouple to, finally, Mommy and Daddy.

Meh, isn't Shiloh a name you'd give a dog? I think Gwen Stefani wins the award for having the coolest baby name...
ravenswing
Yeah, it's like an adopted abused dog movie :)
but I digress... I keep thinking of a fine chilled wine.
"Sir, may I offer you our finest Shiloh Nouvel?"
Style Cynic says:
Eh - Shiloh is better than Pear or Jebodiah, so I'm gonna accept it ;-)... I'm just glad the baby is finally here. Bring on the gossip and pictures of the after baby fat (you just know that beotch is gonna SPRING back to beanpole shape).

Enunciation will be vital.....shallow pit?
whatsinaname says:
Although I do like the name...enuciation will be vital......shallow pit?? Geeez!
pook says:
jeez. what a stupid name. sure giving apple a run for her money
questiion: why is the word nouvelle (new in french) misspelt in her name? Does it have any other meaning besides new?
Shynna says:
I like the name and regarding Nouvel there is a French architect by the name of Jean Nouvel. Since Brad likes architecture maybe that's where they got the name. Anyway, congrats to the Jolie-Pitts.
Robin says:
They must have picked up the name in africa...Shilo is actually a common name for girls in Africa and Jamacia...
kendra says:
I hope Jen sends a nice gift !

Well since Messiah Joile-Pitt is here its Judgement Day for Cruise and his Stepford wife.I guess were going to know whether "Suri" actually exists.This is going to be a true knee-slapper indeed.

how do you even say shiloh ???
Audacte says:
Am I the only one that finds this part: "Last week, the Namibian government said foreign journalists wishing to cover the birth must have written permission from Pitt and Jolie to enter the country and obtain a work permit." absolutely-freakin bizarre?!?!?!!? This country has nothing better to do? Who knew that all it takes to get an African country to "work" for you is to be from Hollywood. As for the name... sorry, not impressed; I had expected better from them. And, as for the snide comments about Jennifer - - come on.. grow up! We are trying to get the lunatics from constantly regurgitating Jen insults on Brad and Angelina stories - - you are NOT helping.
Bflogurl says:
Shiloh pronounced Shy-low
Better then other names, that's for sure. Congrats to them, I suppose.
Rumor says:
It's wonderful that Brad's first biological child is what he always wanted--a girl. He must be over the moon with joy!
mw
Ummm Maniston's movie doesn't start until next weekend. And I actually had a dog named Shiloh, no joke. She was prettier than that fish lipped neanderthal spawn will ever be.
Keisha says:
Actually Shilo's a pretty normal name, I've met some people named that. And doesn't Jen's movie come out mext weekend, not this?
Elle says:
I think it's just beautiful, the name, the family!!!!!
I can't wait to see the pics, THE WHOLE WORLD IS WAITING. Brad must be so happy he always wanted a baby girl and now he has it.
Congratulations Angelina & Brad, can't wait to see these guys. How do we add Shiloh-Nouvel to BAMZ!!
ninjagirl says:
So now Kingston and Shiloh can have a future together!
Next!
Nikki says:
So she went on national TV and lied again. How many weeks premie is the baby, since she wasn't 8 months yet at the end of April. Ha Ha She need to keep her mouth shut.Her and her supposed family are boring. Can we see something else. PLEASE
harold says:
is it just my impression or has this site changed to a more aggressive tone? now it sounds like trying to copy others. running with the crowd.
CMJ says:
For Shiloh's sake, I hope she isn't UGLY!!!!!!! She has a lot to live up to....anything less than very good looking would be a major disappointment. I wonder how the family dynamics will work now -- 3 kids, 2 adopted (and not white) + 1 biological (white) who's expected to be stunning and beautiful.
HAS THE MAKINGS OF A VERY DYSFUNCTIONAL FAMILY!!!
KittyLiterati
I'm glad they didn't choose a wonky name. Shiloh Nouvel is decent enough, although I, too, couldn't help but think about that stupid dog book.
French lesson of the day: pook, "nouvel" also means "new"--it's a special masculine adjective form of "nouveau" (when you have a noun that starts with a vowel or silent h), whereas "nouvelle" is the feminine.
joe says:
God, you are an ass. I would think Jen would be relieved and glad for Brad and Angie. She has never wished them ill will. Even on Oprah, she never mention thier names.
The Break-up hasn't even been released yet. What I haven't heard is how Brad's new movie,Babel is doing. Probably bomb like Troy, Ocena 12 and his PBS special. Mrs. and Mr. Smith didn't make a killing until it was released on DVD. Sounds like the last 18 months haven't been good to him and Angie either. Wonder why the media or this post never mentions this?
tia
Im so happy that the baby is here. Im happy for Angelina and Brad. I wish them the best of luck. I dont like the name Shiloh but its better than Moses and Apple.
blah says:
Heartiest congratulations to Brangelina on their blessed event!
anonjpluva says:
I have always been a fan of Jolie-Pitt apart and as a couple, and I wish them all the best in the world for their growing family, but I really wish the world would cease with the idiotic claim about the phyiscal attributes of this child. The parents didn't put that silliness out there, and so I don't get the stupidity of adults coming up with that craziness. I actually heard some entertainment mouthpiece refer to the kid as "the sexiest baby in the world" ?!?!?!?! who thinks up and then says crap like that?! Brad & Angelina don't give a darn about their children being anything but happy and healthy just like any other parent.
Tajue says:
Ouch. Poor Jen.
sara
why does everyone insist on bringing gwyneth paltrow's children's names into this? apple isn't that uncommon of a name... neither is moses (which has even more meaning because it's the name of the song that chris martin wrote for her).
EVERY name sounded weird, strange and bizarre when it was first being used. at one time, things like tracy, stacey and even angelina were very uncommon names.
celebrities (just like every other person in the world) name their children things they like and/or that have special meaning to them.
i don't know why you all even care. it's not your child. it's not like you were part of the naming process. it's not you'll probably ever have anything to do with ANY child of any celebrity, so let it go.
Helen Sparkles says:
How long till they break up now?
Deb says:
I just wish people could see past all the bull sh-t and wish this family well. god bless this child and her brother and sister
Anni says:
Shiloh, Brad, Angie, YUCK!! Why do we even bother with them. They obviously hate America and most people who live here. They take off to Africa thinking they are so beyond what this country has to offer. Stay there!! We have better fish to fry.
david says:
Shiloh is a popular name. Apple is not. Kingston is annoying. Enough with the last names as first names. That's so 90s.
I don't get the whole hoopla over Suri, as long as they pronounce it Sir-y rather than shir-y. I've heard that name a lot as a shorthand for Suriya or buy itself.
As long as it's not a plain Jane white girl name, or anything taken from the Bible.
Dancer says:
Hey Brad:
TAKE THE BABY AND RUN!
Rumor says:
Oh David I disagree with you about Gwen Stefani's baby's name. I absolutely love it! All four names flow extremely well together. The name makes him sound like royalty. You would think he is the Prince of England or something. As far as the celebs go, Gwen's choice of name for her son is by far my favorite.
I love the name Theodora for a beautiful female. It sounds classic and mature like Elizabeth, but not as common. I love Keith Richard's daughter's name. I think it's Theodora Dupree Richards.
I knew Brad and Angelina would choose something unique. I've never ever met a Shiloh, but I can get used to it. It's okay.
on the top of the world says:
Nice to hear everything went well and the child is healthy. Good luck to them in the future.
Greetings from Orange County, CA
LOL@david says:
I had to laugh when I read your post david.
"As long as it's not a plain Jane white girl name, or anything taken from the Bible." I agree with the plain Jane name. Shiloh is not plain Jane. But it was the "anything taken from the Bible" bit that made me laugh. Do you happen to know the background to the name David? Maybe you would like to know David was one of the most influential kings in the Bible. Called "Man after God's own heart." And Christ's lineage is traced back to said David and beyond... lol not from the Bible.
Jake Fabulous says:
I thought she was gonna have the baby on 6/6/6. Come on we all know ange is a bit freaky!
gimp says:
Shiloh IS from the bible. It means "he is to be sent" and is understood to refer to the messiah.
So, Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt means, literally,
He is to be sent New Beautiful Pitt
And if you say it wrong, you get Pile'o Shit! Instead of Shiloh Pitt. FUN!

sam says:
shame on you all for saying mean things about jennifer. you shouldn't be congratulating brad, the bastard cheated on poor jennifer and angelina was immoral enough to go along with it. youre all pathetic, just because they're good looking you all like them. think about how that poor woman feels, and how wrong these two cheaters are.
ugt2bkdng says:
I wonder what this blessed child will learn from the perfect moral standards her parents personify. Mommy can teach her how to be a freaky plastic attention seeking whore and Daddy can teach her to be a braindead pockfaced stoner Okie cheating scumbag. Yay! The savior of humanity is here!
Kotiks says:
Congratulations, guys!
keay says:
I just don't get why they gave her the MASCULIN of "new"? Doesn't NouvELLE sound a lot prettier than Nouvel? (Note the ELLE - french for she)
siouxie says:
Well Im sure this baby will look a lot better than that ugly little gorilla zahara.

Brad's favorite, or most admired by him architect is Jean Nouvel, and so far most people are saying this is why Shiloh's middle name is what it is. Also learned that Brad gave Zahara her middle name of "Marley" because his favorite musician was/is Bob Marley. I guess this will be Jolie-Pitt's tradition where their children are concerned....their dad will give them their middle name. I think it's great because my dad did the same. Compromise is a wonderful thing.

When Jennifer Aniston goes on record stating that Brad Pitt cheated on her, then and only then will I consider looking at Jolie-Pitt in a different light. Until that day (which I doubt will EVER come, I will continue to support the couple, and maintain my belief that Brad Pitt IS who everyone who knows him personally assert, and that he's a man of his word, and that he will goe to his grave stating that he never cheated on Jennifer Aniston.
Now, if you're one who considers them still emotionally married even AFTER Jennifer Aniston filed the formal divorce papers claiming "irreconcilable differences" March of 2005, then there IS nothing anyone can do about that, but for me? the moment that happened, Brad was free to BE free and as such, I'm thrilled he and Angelina found each other, are happy together, and that they feel that they have in each other what they obviously didn't get out of prior relationships.....a family and all that that means.

I can understand the bashing of Jen, Brad, and Angie but to the people who bash the kids-get a grip. They haven't done anything wrong and Shiloh was just born.
*a Jolie-Pitt fan.
ger2868
How dare Brad divorce Jen. He's an embarassment to all good 1920's gentlemen. Please ...
ShiLo says:
Since Shiloh means "his gift" and nouvel means "new" maybe they meant "his new gift". The baby is Brad's new gift to the world and especially Namibia! Wow 5 in the Pitt-Jolie clan already! When's the sixth member coming?
Maddox says:
I wuv my big hoppy family. Yipeeee!
Small Fry says:
Wow, calling a baby a gorilla is really harsh. I could care less about these two or what they name their child, but please don't go name-calling an innocent baby.
And for those who keep dragging out the relationship of Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston over and over and over again.......get over it. It's been well over a year and I'm tired of hearing about it. If he did cheat who gives a shit? Doesn't everyone in Hollywood cheat or do some other completely illegal and/or immoral thing? I think they have both moved on with their lives and those who keep bringing it up should move on too. Oy.
holly golightly says:
sorry, but why would you name your child after one of the bloodiest battles in the american civil war? just curious...
Irina says:
For those who are wondering why they named her Nouvel (masculine) instead of Nouvelle (femenine), well there is a VERY transparent reason behind it... Brad loooooves architecture and he wants to get into it... for example I think he's worked on a project with Frank Gehry... So he is simply kissing up to the architecture world naming his kid after (living an powerful) french architect Jean Nouvel... Come on Brad!! just make more movies and look pretty because to be an architect you need more than looks and money.
EGGLESS MANISTON says:
POOR EGGLESS CHINNIFER MANISTON!
Rachael Bond says:
Aside from the fact that it's an uncommon last name, the word "nouvel" doesn't mean anything at all unless it's used to describe a masculin noun that begins with a vowel sound (like "nouvel homme"), which definitely isn't the case with "Shiloh."
This is just another case of celebrities trying to be cool and exotic but instead screwing up and looking like idiots (like Tom Cruise calling his baby "Get the hell out of here" in Hebrew). I guess that's the risk you take when you screw around with languages you know nothing about just for the sake of being special and different.
By the way, regarding the above post that says they probably named her after an architect (because Brad Pit loves architecture, whoah!), that's such a load of bull. I find it really hard to believe that, with a beautiful spiritual Hebrew name like Shiloh, they would complement it with the last name of an old French male architect. Please!
Let's face it, they messed up. They used a French word incorrectly, just like Tom Cruise used a Hebrew word incorrectly.
isimemen says:
anni
if you were not so fucking retarded, you will know that they are not try to snob america but to help africa, giving birth there brings some kind of awareness to the problems of the country and maybe ppl we see that it is worthy of been helped, so everything angelina does is veered towards helping someone else
2mean2you says:
i think tat it is a pretty cute name if u like tha
name Shy-low
Irina says:
Ok... think what you want about the name Nouvel... I gave my theory (like 3 or 4 posts above) which is pretty logical, I REALLY doubt that they messed up the masculine / femenine !! For god's sake her mother is part frenchcanadian! ha!, I think Jolie knows a thing or two about the languaje to make that big a mistake... besides how hard is it to look up a word, more so if you're going to be naming your kid like that!! but what ever................

How long before Shiloh Pitt become Pilo Shitt at school?
clynnbass says:
Why do people want to romanize this relationship so much? There is no way a woman can have a full-term child in May and not get knocked up in September. The truth speaks for itself, these two adults were emotionally involved, if not physically involved, way before he became divorced. Also, what part of Jolie's grand humanitarian work sounds even remotely realistic. Is it the part that 80 percent of Namibia population is living on $2.00 a day in poverty while its totally corrupt government is playing host to Jolie and her family? Or is it the fact that 27 percent of Namibia population has Aids and has only 8 hospitals to take care of its population but, in the mean time the government can stop taking care of its sick and close a hospital so it can play host to a celebrity.
Brit Brit says:
I"ll side with Jennifer over Brad any day. He's a cheater and never should of left his wife. He had the perfect life and then trades it for a chinese kid and a black kid "What a NUT !"
PS:Good Luck Jennifer and Vince hope it works out.

Monica Rodriguez says:
To all the cynics that have posted (clynnbass included), it's rather unjust that you would dis humanitarian efforts regardless of an individuals celebrity status. Of course the Namibian government is going to attempt to turn this to their favor, politics is a necessary evil. Bono is courted often by these officials as was Audrey Hepburn and Princess Di. Because, really, if these celebrities wasted time in trying to have "non-hypocritical" images for the sake of cynics who pay needless attention to what matter least in a situation, than help to the lower classes would hardly ever get through.
Also, please get over the Jennifer Anniston thing, she obviously is. I totally dig her and think it unforunate that she was ever hurt, but now she is following her heart, as are Pitt and Jolie. I hope everything works out for everyone. And shame on all of you who dis the children. Clearly they are well loved.
Seanymphette says:
Siouxie and Brit Brit,
wow, don't bother to disguise your blatant racism. Just for the record not all of us view children who are Black and African as gorillas. Many of us who saw pictures of Zahara for the first time, thought she was the most beautiful little doll-like chocolate baby we had ever seen. Brit Brit, (god I hope your real name isn't some mispelling of Brittany, that would be way too trailer-trash typical) White on White doesn't make a perfect marriage or perfect life. If Brad had the perfect life with Jen he could not have been lured away. For that matter how is having a superficial childless Hollywood marriage to a 2nd rate actress who is only using you for your box office clout and to further her own career a perfect life? Brad has publicly expressed a desire for children for quite a while. Like a lot of other people who truly love children (adoptive parents, etc.), he doesn't seem to care one bit what color they are. Angelina adopted in some of the locations of her the two Tomb Raider films, Cambodia and Ethiopia. By the way, Maddox is from Cambodia, not China, but then you probably can't tell people of color apart anyway.
