OlderBrad & Angelina Press Conference
Swakopmund, Namibia :: Angelina and Brad Pitt confirmed Wednesday that their newly-born daughter Shiloh Nouvel will have a Namibian passport.
"Shiloh will receive a Nambian passport, so we shall return," Pitt said at the couple’s first public appearance since the May 27 birth.
The Hollywood glamour pair spoke to local journalists at a press briefing at the four-star Hansa Hotel in Swakopmund at the edge of the Namib desert where Jolie gave birth by Caesarian Section.
"We couldn’t have picked a better place to have our child," said Jolie, looking healthy and relaxed in a black dress. Pitt agreed: "We are very proud that our daughter was born here".

Pitt said the couple had "done their homework" before deciding on Namibia as the birthplace of their first biological and third child.
"The health of our daughter and Angie’s was imperative. We’ve had absolute top-notch medical assistance," Pitt said.
The couple reiterated their gratitude to the people of the sparsely populated country, which has come under intense media interest since their arrival two-and-a-half months ago.
"We are eternally grateful to the Namibian people," Pitt said. "Namibia is one of Africa’s best kept secrets - until we came of course."
The couple had been "afforded a lifestyle here we could not have anywhere else" and that Namibia has been "a wonderful place to be with our kids."
The couple said they planned to remain in the country for just a few more days before returning to the United States. "Just a few more days. My mother is dying to see the baby," Jolie said.
On the tight security around the couple, Jolie said they had wished this had not been necessary but felt "the birth should be done in a way that was peaceful."
Pitt explained that having "a child with a bounty on its head" before its birth, had brought about the need for bodyguards to shield the family.
On future career plans, Pitt said he would begin work on the latest in the Ocean movie series in August while Jolie planned to concentrate on the needs of her three children - the newborn and four-year-old Maddox and one-year-old Zahara.
The couple were accompanied by Namibian first lady Penehupifo Pohamba (pictured above) regional governor Samuel Nuujoma and Child Welfare Minister Marlene Mungunda as they spoke to journalists for about 30 minutes, posed for photographs and signed autographs.
A day after their daughter was born, the couple announced they would provide 300,000 dollars for the refurbishment of hospitals in Namibia. Jolie, a United Nations goodwill ambassador, discovered Namibia some years ago while filming a movie there. [AP]

More Happy News HereFresh from the oven..from your favourite hollywood gossipist…Bon apetit!Our premier Canadian celeb columnist and her clever but catty (meow, meow) take on the baby story. She was a #1 Brangelina booster but my she has changed her tune! Another Pitt *** for tat Yesterday. The day that Jennifer Aniston was supposed to be basking in the glory of finally owning a box office, Brad Pitt and his triple baby momma decide to dominate the headlines once again. Because what’s a $38 million dollar weekend take compared to the first photos of one of the most famous babies ever born??? I know some of you are sick of my mantra but seriously y’all…there really are NO coincidences in Hollywood. Please don’t tell me it was just a convenient accident that the news happened to leak over the weekend and break over Monday about the Pitts’ deal with Getty Images to distribute their exclusives - $4 million each by People (no surprise) and Hello to be redirected to charity. Please don’t tell me that Brad, a self professed ‘Zen Master’ of public relations, had nothing to do with it. Please don’t. Because if you do, I will have to laugh. Along with many, many other gossipmongers who have watched this *** for tat unfold over the better part of a year. Poor Jen indeed. No matter what she does, she really is no match for the reigning God, Goddess, and Godlings of Hollywood. So with that in mind, I’m taking out 30 bucks and I’m heading over to Silvercity this week. The Break Up it is. But first - Let’s take a look our Smut Saviour, shall we? As many others have remarked, I definitely see her mother’s lips. Other than that, I don’t see much else. Don’t forget my Celebrity Baby Theory though. Remember - it’s the Goddess’s way of evening things out. Reported On 06/06/2006 The link is: http://www.laineygossip.comBack to top Guest
