This is NUTS!
You know how there were all of these reports that Angelina Jolie gave birth last week, and they seemed to be coming from a reliable source, and then Entertainment Tonight reported she gave birth… meaning it must have been true and confirmed?
Well there’s an explanation…
JOSSIP REPORTS
How to explain how Entertainment Tonight so very badly bungled the EXCLUSIVE!!! story about Angelina Jolie giving birth last week? (And then their website “crashed“; maybe they were hiding from their screw up?)
Well, it wasn’t entirely their fault.
Jossip hears that somebody has been impersonating Angelina’s assistant Holly Goline, using a fake BlackBerry email address and sending erroneous reports to the press. Jolie’s attorneys at cease-and-desist happy firm Lavely & Singer are said to be circulating a letter among entertainment outlets explaining the situation.
And the worst part? This impostor has been sending fake information to the media for the past year. Time to start counting up all those outrageously untrue items!
Says the letter:
“A random individual has engaged in a scheme to intentionally harm my client and deceive her fans, the public and the media through illegal and tortuous impersonation of Ms Jolie’s long-time assistant, Holly.
“The individual who claims to be, and to whom the media has relied upon as, a ‘reliable source’ is not my client’s assistant, nor does the email address belong to my client’s assistant.â€
How crazy is that!?!?! And it’s been going on for A YEAR??? And it took this for someone to say something? So now the question is… have any of these reporters met with this Holly chick or are they just relying on emails? INSANE!!!
Anyway, how crazy… so no babies for Angelina Jolie yet – maybe she is really just on bed rest??? She hasn’t been spotted… something told me the story about her giving birth didn’t seem right, but whatever. What do I know?

1Dustin Hoffman said on the Today Show (he was being interviewed for that Kung Fu Panda movie) that her due date is August 19th … that he wanted her to wait to have the babies on his birthday, August 8th. She still has a long ways to go and as big as she is I really hope she is doing the whole bed rest thing!

2Maybe ET should be careful who they pay information for. Either way ET has apologies owed.
