Angelina Jolie: It"s Been Quite a Year!

We’re inching closer and closer to anniversary we never thought we’d mark:

On September 19, it will be one year since Angelina Jolie filed for divorce from Brad Pitt.

For the first few months after this shocking split, neither star spoke much to the media.

There were plenty of rumors over just what transpired between the actress and actor, with a few scathing accusations leveled at Pitt in regard to his alleged drug and alcohol use.

Fast forward to 2017, however, and Pitt and Jolie appear to be on decent enough terms.

They aren’t really speaking to each other, but they have been speaking to the press.

Talking to The Sunday Telegraph, for example, Jolie recently lamented her single status.

“Sometimes maybe it appears I am pulling it all together,” she said.

“But really I am just trying to get through my days. I don’t enjoy being single. It’s not something I wanted. There’s nothing nice about it. It’s just hard.”

And now Jolie is opening up even more as the cover subject of the latest People Magazine.

“I have had my ups and downs. I guess I am a little bit stronger,” Jolie tells People over the past several months, adding:

“We all have our difficult times, but as a mother you also have a responsibility first and foremost towards the kids.

“They are going through their formative years and everything else comes second to that.”

Jolie’s latest directorial effort, First They Killed My Father, hits Netflix on September 15.

The film is based on her friend Loung Ung’s memoir about surviving the Khmer Rouge genocide in Cambodia, which is the country from which Jolie and Pitt adopted son Maddox.

Will Angelina ever act again? Yes.

But it isn’t a priority.

“Everything will be around the children,” she says. “I haven’t worked for over a year now because they needed me home. Everything was just stopped.

“I’m really sitting and talking with them because everything affects them. Every location, every type of project, I’m going to have to adjust it to however much they can handle.”

Jolie and Pitt are still trying to finalize an official custody agreement for their six kids: Maddox, 16, Pax, 13, Zahara, 12, Shiloh, 11, Vivienne and Knox, 9.

The actress has been trying to keep them away from the spotlight, but she understands this isn’t realistic and perhaps not even desirable.

“I think they’re itching to get out in the world again,” says Jolie, concluding:

“We’ve all been a bit in lockdown and going through some things. I think it would be good to get out there and play together.”

Prince George Birthday Portrait: Released, Quite Possibly the Cutest Thing in History

There’s cute, like when dog owners turn their best friends into precious memes.

There’s really cute, like when little kids express love in adorable, innocent fashion.

And then there’s super duper extraordinarily so-very-endearing-we-just-want-to-scream-all-day-in-delight cute, like when Prince George turns four years old and his family releases the following photo in celebration:

Altogether now: AWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWW!!!!!!!!!!!

The very sweet child, whose birthday is on July 22, is smiling from ear to ear in the picture above, while wearing a cute striped button-up shirt.

“The Duke and Duchess are delighted to share a new official portrait of Prince George to mark His Royal Highness’s fourth birthday tomorrow,” Kensington Palace shared on Instagram on Friday afternoon.

Added the Royal Family in this statement:

“The photograph was taken at Kensington Palace at the end of June by Chris Jackson.

The Duke and Duchess are very pleased to share this lovely picture as they celebrate Prince George’s fourth birthday, and would like to thank everyone for all of the kind messages they have received.”

Prince William and Kate Middleton are parents to George and a two-year old daughter named Charlotte.

They have made a point to keep the children far away from the spotlight, rarely exposing them to a curious public and/or an irritating group of paparazzi.

Every now and then, however, around the holidays or around their birthdays, the beloved couple will unveil a new official portrait such as the one featured here.

George arrived in 2013 at 4:24 p.m. local time and weighed 8 lbs 6 oz at the time of his birth.

His proud parents carried him out to meet the press a day later for his first set of pictures, figuring they might as well get the deed over with on their own terms, lest anxious photographers try breaking down the gates of their home.

Shortly thereafter, as depicted below, the Royal Family posed for a set of memorable portraits as a unit, George included.

Later this year, George will start pre-kindergarten at a private school in London.

He had previously attended nursery school at Westacre Montessori School near his family’s home in Anmer Hall in Norfolk, England.

“George is very lively and Charlotte is very ladylike,” Prince William has said of his kids. “They’re both delightful of course.”

As for whether or not William and Kate will soon add to their brood?

Give the rumors a rest, will ya, people?!?

Let’s just focus on the precious kids they have right now!

Iggy Azalea Has QUITE The Message For Nick Young and Keonna Green

Iggy Azalea needn’t say a word to let the world know how she feels.

Nick Young’s baby mama, Keonna Green recently gave an interview to Us Weekly, claiming she tried to reach out to Young’s former fiance, Iggy Azalea when the two started fooling around (Green and Young were high school sweethearts and have a son together).

“I tried to reach out to her,” Green claimed.

“I never got a response.”

According to Gossip Cop, Azalea was approached by paparazzi about Green’s interview at an Australian airport.

When one asked if Green made any attempt to contact her about the affair, Azalea said “No, it’s not true.”

The paparazzo continued to ask more questions, and then asked if the rapper had a “message” for Green and Young.

Azalea held up her middle finger and told the pap, “That’s my message for them, not you.”

Green went into detail over when she and Young started hooking up.  It was back in September, and they were at Green’s house with their 4-year-old.

“We got caught up in the moment and it just happened. I would be like, ‘Nick, you cannot be sloppy. You need to be honest [with Azalea].’ He would say, ‘I don’t want to hear it."”

I don’t know what was going on in his household, but me and Nick have lots of history. It wasn’t a secret on my end.

“I didn’t feel guilty because I was in love with a man, and I’m pretty sure I’m not the only woman.”

In case Green didn’t make it crystal clear that she has no remorse, here’s another gem:

“I’m definitely not going to apologize for being in love with a man who I have a lot of history with.”

Alrighty!

Right now, Green (who is expecting the former couple’s second child) is not romantically involved with Young.

“I’m giving him his space,” she explained.

“On an intimate level, it has stopped. We haven’t discussed how we’re going to move forward. Right now, he needs to focus on basketball and getting his life in order.

“Basketball is what puts food on two people’s plates that he’s taking care of.”

Johnny Depp: "Quite Worried" About Lily-Rose Depp"s Sudden Fame

Usually when you see “Depp” and “worried” in the same headline, the story involves someone being concerned about Johnny’s drinking. 

This time, though, Johnny is the one furrowing his brow.

After several decades in Hollywood, Depp knows about the pitfalls of fame all too well.

Now that his daughter, Lily-Rose Depp, is making a name for herself as a model and actress, the eccentric 52-year-old icon is understandably experiencing mixed emotions:

“To be honest, I’m quite worried,” Depp told Germany’s Gala magazine during a recent interview. “I wasn’t expecting all this to happen to Lily-Rose, especially not at this age. But it’s her passion and she’s having fun.”

In addition to her acting – Lily-Rose will star in Kevin Smith’s horror-comedy Yoga Hosers in 2016 – the 16-year-old is already making a splash in the modeling world.

Lily-Rose has already landed an editorial spread in Vogue, and she was recently named the new face of Chanel.

That’s an awful lot for any teenager to take on, but fortunately, Lily-Rose has her dad to guide her through the perilous path of sudden stardom.

“She knows that I’m always there for her,” Depp told the magazine.

Yes, Johnny may not always be the best at taking care of himself, but the man is insanely protective of his kids.
