Jolie: Pregnancy Makes Sex Exciting

Actress Says She Loves Being So "Round And Full," Is More Creative

(AP)  Angelina Jolie says being pregnant has its perks.

"It's great for the sex life," she tells Entertainment Weekly magazine. "It just makes you a lot more creative. So you have fun, and as a woman you're just so round and full."

Jolie, who's expecting twins, has said the babies are due in August. According to The CBS Early Show the Entertainment Weekly interview was conducted two weeks ago and the actress still appeared to be expecting at the time.

She and partner Brad Pitt have four children: Maddox, 6; Pax, 4; Zahara, 3; and Shiloh, 2.

When asked how she and Pitt plan to handle six young children, the 33-year-old actress says: "We really don't know. His mom and dad are on standby to come out and help. And fortunately we can hire help if we need it, but we're going to try as we usually do to balance it as well as we can."

Jolie says the couple wants to make sure their older children feel included after the babies are born.

"They're old enough to feel included to change diapers themselves, to feed bottles themselves, like if I pump into a bottle. We're trying to find ways where it can be a fun group thing," she says.

How do Jolie and Pitt, 44, define their relationship?

"We have that problem all the time," she says. "I say 'partner' sometimes. 'Father of my children' is too long. But half the time people refer to us as, 'So, your wife this, your husband that.' We've stopped correcting everybody.'"

Jolie, who has two upcoming films, "Wanted" and "Changeling," continues to draw strong reactions from the public, which she sees as a good thing.

"That some people support me and some people really don't like me tells me that I'm making decisions and I'm standing strong for something I believe in. I'm making choices in life. And that's the right thing to do."

Many of you may not like Angelina, but you''re probably not perfect yourselves. At least she''s open about who she is and how she has changed over the years--like her or not. Look in your own mirror before trashing someone else.

This is one of the most disgusting stories I''ve heard from CBS to date. First of all, to glorify out-of-wedlock pregnancies and then to glorify the most personal matters of a dysfunctional family and hold them up as role models to young people just to make a few dollars is disheartening. You just ran a story about 17% of children are living in poverty and your story featured single parent homes...no wonder...look at the role models you feature for young people. Shame on you.

No, Flajoc1, THIS was the best post of them all:

"If only you could record the thoughts of the fetus.
Hey! Stop poking me in the back of the head!!!

but MegamanX1 does have a good point.

They will probably name these two equally stupid names - just slays me how poeple nowadays give their kids either totally made-up/means nothing names or changes the spelling to something that looks like it belongs on a can of feminine hygiene powder, or in the case of different races, a multi-syllable unpronounceable name that "sounds" ethnic/meaningful but ACTUALLY only means "My parents are sadistic idiots". Then, when the child is all grown up, they want to change it to something more normal sounding(anyone remember Frank Zappa''s children''s names?) Why do people punish their children with this kind of garbage? I think the next celebrity to give birth (Angie, are you listening?) should hold a nationwide contest to name the kid - MAYBE it might have a chance of sounding halfway normal for once.

It is hilarious how many of you write "who cares", or "this isn''t newsworthy". BUt you took the time to read the article.
And my how judgemental of some of you who have never even met either one of them. By some the of comments stated here as fact I would think you would have to live with them or inhabot their brains to knwo the things about them that you are stating as fact. And Hollywood marriages don;t break up with any more regularity than the over 50% rate of everyone else in this country!!

re: Pumping into a bottle...family fun...

Uhhh...I guess I just don''t see a problem here. A lot of women who breast feed fill bottles and then the father and older kids get an opportunity to feed the baby. I guess how it''s worded sounds strange.

I''m confused.

If no one wants to hear (or read) about Brangelina, why waste your time opening the article?

First I will agree with some of the comments about Angelina getting involved with Brad when he was married. But don''t forget, he allowed it to happen, so obviously there was something wrong with their marriage to begin with. But I''ll have to say that your all reading what you want to in this,she said if she pumps the milk then having the other children involved by bottle feeding. She doesn''t say they are involved with the pumping of the milk. With that haven''t you all realized by now anything going on in Hollywood is apparently newsworthy, least we forget Hollywoods news of the past? If your too busy trashing anybody else''s life... must be to make you feel better... Sorry to say.

She is unbelievably tacky. Who cares about what they do privately? I think she is trying to get under Jennifer Aniston''s skin. Why would any reputable media source report this garbage? Get a life Angelina, quiet your private life and take care of your family. I hope Brad is embarrassed. If this is news, GOOD GRIEF !!!!

I have no clue how this is news-worthy in any way shape of form. If I found creative ways to enjoy s*e*x with my partner, would that be news? I don''t think so.

And why should I care what her s*e*x life is like when I am not getting any from her? And Brad, he may have more money than me, but he can''t keep his marriages together, just like many in Hollywood. When these kids get older and Angelina starts aging due to the strain of 6 kids, movies, a mansion, etc..., he''ll move on.

What a crock this is. CBS dishonors itself with this so-called "newsworthy story".

Is she seriously suggesting that pumping into a bottle is a fun family thing to do?

That''s what I took it to mean.

In this new world we are in, maybe it is.

"Jolie says the couple wants to make sure their older children feel included after the babies are born.

"They''re old enough to feel included to change diapers themselves, to feed bottles themselves, like if I pump into a bottle. We''re trying to find ways where it can be a fun group thing," she says."

Oh, so they adopted the kids to have free nannies for their biological children! Now it''s all starting to make sense!

Is she seriously suggesting that pumping into a bottle is a fun family thing to do?

Angelina has become addicted to using children as accessories. What happens when she gets bored with this phase of her life and moves on?

She''s not a good actress, she''s not very pretty, she''s a boring person in an interview and she stole someone else''s husband. He''s not a good actor, he''s getting kinda old, he''s so pumped up on himself it''s a wonder he can fit through doorways and he can''t keep a commitment or a relationship. Why on earth would a story about how much they enjoy their *** life be one of the top stories?
