The Tom Cruise Family
Since Angelina Jolie stepped back from Hollywood, did philanthropic work, grabbed some brad pitt, became a UN Ambassador and stepped back into Hollywood there have been an influx of celebrities buying purse babies...I mean adopting.
Really Tom Cruise and Nicole Kidman are the original adopting celebrities but when they did it, it wasn't cool. Now, EVERYONE wants one. Like a purse. A baby. Usually ethnic( Chinese, Black, Russian), usually healthy and usually from some place destitute.
Like a Fendi, a Lui Vitton or whatever is in in the Hollywood hills these days. Celebrities can buy I mean adopt children from anywhere, carry them over their shoulder and marvel at how "different" they are.
While I am thankful these children have homes, I worry. I worry that they are going to be novelty to their celebrity parents. I worry they will be subject to additional pressures. But I am thankful they have someone. I can't deny them that. Every child deserves the best money can buy and the best a heart can give. The latter is more important obviously but if you can "give back" as a celebrity why not do it with life.
Sandra Bullock announced her secret adoption of what appears to be a black baby boy. I marvelled at this not because the star of the movie "The Blindside" may be reliving the script but because she adopted the baby with husband Jesse James (initially before the raw sewage sex he had with women outside of the marriage).
Jesse has been seen posing in Nazi photos (which I also blogged about). It would be interesting to me to see how a man who idolized Hitler would do with raising a black male.
Scary...
The Jolie -Pitts family...
The Madonna family...
The Katherine Heigl family
Sandra Bullock son...Louis Bardo Bullock.I am glad these celebrities are sharing their wealth. I hope it is for the right reasons. I don't mean to be skeptical but I recall Jessica Simpson saying she wanted to adopt a chines baby...
Case closed...
I wish these parents and children the best.
