I swiped these pictures of Knox and Vivienne Jolie-Pitt from JustJared so I could show you how surprisingly not adorable the twins turned out to be. Well, they’re no Shiloh, anyway. Sure, sure. They’re still above average-looking and will probably grow up to be obnoxiously foxy adults, but for right now I am finding comfort in the fact that not everything that comes out of Angelina Jolie’s body is perfect. Let me have that.
seriously, molls? leave the kids out of this website. i thought that was a rule around here
This officially puts her on the same level as Perez Hilton… no wait, LOWER. Never thought that was possible.
Oh settle down! Some people (pea for example) just need to relax and not get all uppity over every little comment. Don’t we have more serious issues going on?
ummm, uppity? ok, if uppity means calmly stating single fact, then yeah, I’m SUPER uppity.
Aw, I wanted to say, “cue the outraged comments about judging peoples’ kids,” but alas, I am too late. :(
hmm… it think they look like shiloh..or at least in the same family + just as cute.
awww…ewwww…
I’m just happy that I think I see a wrinkle on her face. Oh please let that be a wrinkle.
Huh? They look exactly like Shiloh.
Knox is cute. Vivienne looks a little… special.
HA! “special” is right.
erm, the girl looks kind of Down syndrome to me, concerning for some kind of syndrome anyway…
are you serious?? they’re babies!
I bet you think ALL babies are cute. LOL.
Ahhhh I think they’re so cute! Look at the chubby cheeks and gorgeous lips.. They are gonna be beautiful in a couple of years!
oh, and just to spite all the haters, I LOVE YOU MOLLS.
Hello Miss Stringy Hair and Giant Potato Nose,
Thank you so much for opinion on the outer beauty of these children. I really enjoyed your insight on these 2 year olds and their clearly permanent facial features. However, I do feel bad knowing that when you started taking your first steps, your mother had to stare at this: http://30.media.tumblr.com/tumblr_ky5tc6PUh11qz6b3yo1_400.png and all of your friends and family had to lie to her about what a precocious baby you were. That or you were dug out of the ground with the rest of that year’s potato harvest. I’m so glad Sasha has chosen someone so creative and well grounded to be a contributor to this blog.
Wow, that was really fucking mean. How can you be so angry at a gossip blogger whom you’ve never met?
I don’t understand why Sasha ever chose “Molls” to write here. I miss the days when you could come on this site and read funny, well written posts. I enjoy Kelly’s writing but anymore its always Molls crap plastered on every post, and everything is always negative. If it isn’t a kid she’s making fun of, its a post that makes no sense or just sounds boring. It’s a celebrity gossip site, not an outlet for your hate Molls. I miss Wendie and I wish Sasha would contribute more. I thought I could still try and come to EB, but I’m tired of these stupid posts. Not to mention, on more than one occasion there have been multiple posts on the same topic, but written by different writers. Sasha if you cared for your readers you really need to listen to them, and think about changing things.
I am a daily reader – I love Molls.
Sasha, if you care about your readers keep Molls!
BYE Anon!
Dear Wow,
You know what else is mean? Making fun of children you’ve never met. Let that digest. Now, click on the link I provided in my original comment and fap away lethermank!
Bc her writing is crap and her posts are not news, but merely her ranting about silly things.
Angelina Jolie slipping and falling on her face is silly. Calling children ugly is not. If you can’t tell the difference, you shouldn’t be posting a comment.
They’re okay-looking, I guess. What puzzles me are their slack-faced dead expressions. Do all little kids look like that? These two look like hungover college students in an 8am class. Shiloh was a prettier baby, but that is no guarantee that she’ll be the prettier adult, which matters more (and I am aware that it is catty and superficial for me to say so). I miss the smiling chubby-faced cherubs of the Affleck clan.
yeah, because the dead pan expressions in the photos are what their faces are frozen into and look like all the time.
Also you are right all kids look like that.
Really? You’re jealous of kids? Jesus.
I love Sasha, and she’s smart enough to be able to run her blog and all…but she’s got to get rid of you. You constantly talk shit about really good looking celebrities…and their toddler kids. Can’t you see how that looks? It just makes you look like a mean and jealous person. CHECK YO SELF “MOLLS”
a) I don’t understand why everyone connects being mean with jealousy — that is not always the case! I say mean things about how some middle-aged women in Wal-Mart dress.. that is not me being jealous. Why would she be jealous of babies? She’s not. The end.
b) I think these kids are cute – they kind of look like the Olsen’s from the baby Full House days. Puffy & chubby-cheeked and cute.
Amen! I’m glad there are other people that feel the way I do about Molls. I said it from the beginning and I’ll continue to say it until Molls is gone from EB. Sasha, please get another writer who actually has some talent and wit, enough with Molls and her shit!
I’d be interested to know Beet’s site numbers since Wendie left. My guess is they went way down, but I’m sure Beet would never share that info unless you were a perspective ad buyer.
I’m beginning to think Beet’s strategy re: Molls is just to create as much controversy and chaos as possible because regardless of what people say about Molls, people comment on her posts. Most of them express their hatred for her, but I would imagine any dialog is better than no dialog.
I don’t hate Molls or her writing. But, I’m definitely not her biggest fan. I must, however, thank her for introducing me to CokeTalk and DearCokeTalk– a website and advice column, respectively, written by some anonymous self professed coke whore. This lady is amazing. She is clearly a high earning, high flying (in all meanings of the word) woman in her 40s who is EXTREMELY intelligent, witty, uber sarcastic, and just plain honest. I’m convinced she is a high stakes film and entertainment attorney who specializes in intellectual property. Her lifestyle doesn’t match mine in the slightest, but her posts are just as addictive as her habit. She is RAW. Sorry for the diversion…
Remember when this new “era” started, Beet practically admitted that this site was now a business – it’s all about using the right keywords (ie. celebrity names + sensationalist titles) for Google to index so that the chosen demographic (teens to mid 20s) click on the links and make the advertisers happy. They don’t even have to read the posts (though of course more comments = more clicks, so it doesn’t matter if Molls is great or sucks, as long as people talk about it).
So… sorry to point this out, but ever since Beet said goodbye to quality, her ratings have probably gone UP… and with less effort. Yay for Beet.
Numbers are up by about 20% since Molls took the reins. Same for revenue. ;)
@ beet,
yeah because all we do now is bitch and complain about Molls which swells the comment sections on here.
I guess your happy regardless.
Maybe if everyone bombards Sasha’s Facebook account about this “writer” twit, she will get the hint.
Wow cute are Knox and Vivienne Jolie-Pitt from!!! :-) Angelina’s profile resembles Joh Voit. IMHO :-0
Mercy** I have to agree with you about Vivienne…
What would you expect a child’s facial expression to be when they are surrounded by photogs?
Do you write this stuff just to get attention?
Poor Molls.
I think they’re cute.
Vivienne looks Princess Tiami (or whatever it is that Peter Andre & Jordan named their daughter) in that pic.
I agree. I think they’re both super-adorable. I love babies and I can spot an ugly one. These babies are not ugly, in fact they look just like Shiloh and Shiloh is the Messiah of babies. Sooo cute! I want to see more pics of them, i bet they’re hilarious when they play together. Aww…
c’mon – stop hatin’ on Molls. These kids do ‘suffer’ from the classic baby-big-head syndrome (and big forehead syndrome – not like Christina Ricci big – but sort of big). They will, I’m sure – grow up to be perfectly beautiful children. I guess if we want to hate on something – it should be Brad’s ever-more-disgusting beard. And I can’t tell if it’s cute or creepy that they are both wearing the same type of hat as daddy…do they have rasta hair under there?
First they look like Shiloh but they definitely look like premies and I think that’s where the “special” look comes in. Most kids outgrow the premie look by three. Second, they look dead tired, my kids all look stoned and hung over when its nap time and add jet lag to that and you get the face of a stoner. And lastly, thank god you don’t have kids… you really need to learn when to shut it. *Sigh* That’s just uncalled for specifically when you know that your words are being immortalized and kids learn to use google fairly quickly. My 7 year old can google.
That was ridiculous. Are you really that hurting for a story that you are going to cut-up toddlers now?! That pisses me off that you would judge babies because it is a slow news day.
That was a little rough, making fun of children because you can’t come up with anything else. Grow the **** up.
seriously? firstly – they’re actually pretty cute. just look really, really tired. they look like shiloh.
secondly, i’m with all the PPs above who question the fact you’re slamming toddlers. what the fuck. i think you may be working for the wrong site. are you going to start posting youtube videos of ugly teenage girls so you can mock them, too?
not.cool.
molls, those kids are really cute, go hang out at the local walmart or target and get a realistic point of view.
Also lay off talking about babies and their “looks”…it’s in very poor taste even for a gossip site.
I think all babies and little kids are creepy as hell. The cuter they are, the better at sucking your soul.
haaaaaa!
Agreed they all look like monkeys so who knows what qualifies as “cute” to the raging uteri reading this website. guess what – some toddlers are ugly and it is a gossip website. Angelina is constantly taking these kids out and calling the paparazzi in advance- there are many article about this…
I think you’re mistaking Angelina Jolie for Jamie Spears you idiot backwater swamp hick. This is one of the very rare appearances of the twins. Up until a few weeks ago, websites still had to use the picture of them at the airport when they were only a few months old.
um, why the personal insults? i meant the other children…
Oh I didn’t know that this post was about the other children. I guess it’s unfortunate I didn’t learn the readin ritin and rithmetic you learned from your toothless ma. Consider the personal insults a little present from the world to you after you push out your very own ugly inbred baby ^.^
wha? they look almost exactly like shiloh did. I don’t even like babies, but think that they are adorable
Molls,
How did you not see yourself getting killed on this…yeah, it’s a gossip blog, not “Meet the Press”… but come on, they are non-celebrities; should be left out of any trashing; lest Travis Barker would come looking to kick your ass. The little girl does have a special needs look on her face; as crass as that comment is… but easy on the little ones; save it for the little ones that are dying to be stars like Suri Cruise, who owns the camera.
Usually love your elitist slant, but easy on the little ones, though the slam was on Angelina.
Hahahahah You are right Molls, don’t listen to all those children lovers! Children are evil! They think they are the center of the universe, they toddle around like they own the place, they spit up on everything, they cry all the time and need constant attention. Anyone who signs up for that is insane. Now I will retreat to my bubble bath with a glass of wine. The End.
someone cared for you when you were an “evil” child, though clearly, not very well.
Someone doesn’t have a sense of humor I see . . .
or your “joke” is not funny.
beet czar,
your description sounds more like yourself as an adult than actual babies in general.
Huh? What?
sorry man, i meant to address that comment @esa.
my bad!
High five!
They look a lot like Shiloh did at that age.
Molls didn’t say anything about the kids being ugly or even unattractive. She admits they’re both above-average looking children. Do you trolls read the posts before you start spewing your hate or do you just go by the headlines and the “Molls” bylines?
“so I could show you how surprisinglynot adorable the twins turned out to be”
I kind of feel like you’re one of those idiots that takes everything literally.
Let me lay one on you: Not Adorable =/= Not Ugly. Just because she used the word adorable in a sentence doesn’t mean that you should go by one word and start spewing your godawful logic on us.
Exactly. Not all kids are adorable, no one has to find every child gorgeous. She’s not being a bitch to them or saying anything nasty.
You’re right. Sometimes children aren’t beautiful. There’s a difference between having an opinion about that and keeping it to yourself, and posting it on a website (even a gossip blog). Everyone’s entitled to an opinion, but common decency separates the retards like you and Molls from civilized people.
i just hope those kids only LOOK like they have down syndrome. and molls, cmon…you must have expected this backlash. i don’t have a huge problem with molls posts, but i do miss the evilbeet posts. they were really funny, but still sarcastic and kinda bitchy… and a little less…um…hateful.
please grow up and quit insulting babies. this is just sad for you to spend time out of your life writing a negative post about children. knox and viv are adorable babies, just because shiloh came out looking like a supermodel doesn’t mean the twins are not cute. i used to like this website but its posts like this that make me lose respect for the writers and the site in general. molls- you should take your negativity and spitefulness to perez, except he actually likes the twins.
I agree with Molls.
…I guess that makes me like, the meanest person ever!
YOU’RE GOING TO HELLLLLL (apparently)
When I saw this picture on another website earlier today I thought the exact same thing. Babies almost always look weird, but these two especially. Thanks for confirming I am not the only one with this (apparently extremely unpopular) opinion, Molls.
I honestly think that the writers of this site would do best to refrain from commenting on anyone’s looks.
With that said, I think its pretty shameful to call innocent children ugly.
Is this the best we can expect around here these days? Damn.
I think that we all need to band together to get rid of this twit once and for all. Goto Sasha’s Facebook and tell her how you feel. She can’t ignore everyone, and she is on it often. I am tired of this Molls chick, she has totally ruined this site for me :(
SIGH…
THE WRITERS OF BLOGS MAKE MONEY OFF OF ADVERTISERS. ADVERTISERS PAY MONEY TO BE ON BLOGS BASED ON NUMBER OF HITS / COMMENTS LEFT, ETC.
Have you ever noticed how much you comment on Molls’ posts? That is what they want. If you want a writer to be sent away you need to STOP COMMENTING on their posts. Otherwise, ranting & raving & commenting post after post after post about how much you hate the writer simply brings more hits to the site, which brings in more money from advertisers, which causes the head honcho to keep said writer around for the number of comments on her posts.
*rebbelllyun. U r doin’ it rong.*
Basically what I said in my above post :-)
oh suck my dick lisa.
oh my dear jesus. has anyone else even thought about how awful brad pitt looks with his scraggly hobo beard?
No. Not a single person before you has ever mentioned his beard before on this site. We’re so happy that you’re here and could highlight the obvious for us. Keep up the good work.
I’m with Molls here. I’m a mother and I love children but I think it’s wrong for everyone to jump all over Molls because she shared her opinion. If you don’t like it, don’t read the blog, there are lots of others out there that have rainbows, puppies and kitties and sparkles shooting out of unicorns asses…feel free.
AC, what people seem to be lamenting here is a perceived drop in quality/humor/merit/grammar/etc. from a much beloved website. What they are saying is, “Your website means something to me. Please let my voice and disdain mean something to you.” Human nature, really.
And not to be bitchy, but people ABSOLUTELY have the right to slam Molls for her opinion; Molls slams countless celebs for their opinions. She can’t have her cake and eat it to. She’s not immune from her own vitriol. None of us are. That means you and me as well. It’s the nature of the beast.
Thanks for the explanation, Lisa…my 41 year old, college degree carrying self couldn’t have figured that out.
“And not to be bitchy, but people ABSOLUTELY have the right to slam Molls for her opinion”
In what way did I imply that people didn’t have the right? I simply said that I think it’s wrong. I like Molls, I love the site just as it is.
Don’t get your 41 year old granny panties in a wad!
Let me rephrase for you: “People are ABSOLUTELY RIGHT to slam Molls for her opinion, as she slams countless celebs for their opinion.”
Happy now? Different words, same meaning. I know your “41 year old, college degree carrying self” might not understand semantics, as you probably got your degree almost two decades ago.
And I tried so hard not to be a bitch in my original post! Clearly I don’t care anymore…
really molls? i think this site has “jumped the shark”….
Agreed. This used to be one of my favorite sites, I’d check it daily. Now, not so much. It just seems unprofessional- grammar and spelling mistakes, bad posts. I miss the witty entries and the snark.
Who cares that the twins are/aren’t as cute as Shiloh? Their blank expressions look like they are in need of a nap.
Remember that these days the business (ahem, I mean site) is geared towards a demographic dat talks lyk dis when dey text each uther nd stuffs. Dis is lyk very proffesionalle by there standurds.
It’s like this place used to be a funky restaurant with good food and atmosphere, and now it’s a cheap drive-through that sells bulk nuggets that give you the runs. I think I’ll call it McBeet. :P
Nicely put! McBeet, I love it.
YOU REALLY ARE MEAN AND I WILL NEVER EVER READ YOUR PAGE AGAIN.YOU BITCH.APOLOGISE ASAP.
You want her to apologize? Seriously? – I’m beginning to find a lot of commenters on this site really annoying. Ugh.
Me too. You.
OY! WHINERS!
Kids are a no no, always a no no.
Seriously molls, you seem like a nice girl, but you honestly as a gossip writer pretty much suck.
wait hold on. you shit on taylor swift because of the message she’s sending to girls (and i agree with you here), but then you yourself are being so critical of babies? really?
OH MY GOD YOU GUYS. It’s a fucking gossip site. You log onto this shit every day to read about people YOU WILL NEVER MEET. Let’s stop pointing the finger at who’s the “loser” here. Lighten up. Molls can write about whatever she wants to write about. It’s not a life or death situation here. If you don’t like it, stop reading.
Molls CAN write whatever she wants. But we can also hate thepointless unfunny crap that she writes.
The editor of this blog surely wants to know that people are unhappy with it. Her revenue comes from hits, and crap like this can only decrease the number of hits she gets.
It has gotten to the point where I only click on beet so I can gawk and marvel about how bad it has gotten. That will get old soon enough (except on the weekends, when Kelly actually IS awesome)
“Her revenue comes from hits, and crap like this can only decrease the number of hits she gets.”
This post has like 70 comments already, yours being one of them. How is this DEcreasing the hits? lol
Like I said, if the poor quality keeps up, people won’t follow anymore.
Bitching is only fun for so long.
Nah, this has been going on for months with no sign of abatement. I think you’re being overly idealistic. It’s like saying that McD will go out of business cos they sell unhealthy crap in bulk and everyone knows it. And yet….
Actually, you’re probably right.
But I know I’ll be coming back less. There are other really unique and funny blogs to give me my celeb fix. (dlisted and litelysalted are awesome, for those of you looking)
I can actually tell they will be better looking than Shiloh. They have a brilliant jaw/lip combination. They’re not blonde so it makes them less pretty :P The boy is prettier.
Looks like the boy will grow up to look just like Brad, but with Angelina’s lips. I’m curious to see how that combo works out on a boy. Didn’t work too well for Steve Tyler – but his daughter is gorgeous.
Meh. Just because it’s a child doesn’t make it cute.
A gossip site is generally understood to be a site where the writers tell us tidbits about our favorite (or perhaps not-so-favorite) actors. Beet’s posts used to be awesome. They are why I used to be such a fan of this site. Molls too often either uses her posts as her own personal catharsis on something she hates, rambles inconsistently on something loosely related to the story she’s attemtping to write about, or merely posts a picture of a celeb and invents a reason to write about it. That isn’t the idea here…or at least it wasn’t when I started loving the site. The quality of the writing has also tanked, especially on weekday posts. “You guys, you guys, you guys.” She also by her own admission knows nothing about kids, or raising kids, so anything she writes about celeb children tends to just be idiotic and/or borderline offensive. I really miss the great posts this site used to have every day.
They have fiveheads, but you have to admit that Shiloh has a bit of a big head too. Still, they are gorgeous. You wanna talk ugly babies, there are quite a few out there. These two don’t even come close…
About those metrics…
If you look at available data from various sites (I look at alexia, google insights, and some others), you’d see the site didn’t react at all when Wendie left.
Right now 38% or so of users coming to film.com are coming here.
Her site caters to those people 18-25 generally college with no kids. About half coming from school and half from home. Most have no kids.
Her site ramped up in 2008 and has trended down over 2009. Right now she’s where she was in Feb 2008.
EB’s interest was primarily in the US on the west coast. Since then, interest in the US has spread to SC, Louisiana, Washington, MS, and Texas (oddly).
Outside the US, more people in Canada are coming here as well as Australia, and the UK.
I’d say, since the #1 reason for showing up appears to be “nip slip” still, that she’s doing fairly well.
In fact, I remember when she moved her blog to film.com and they cut off her ability to show nip slips she lamented about it.
However, she’s usually shown some fairly decent business acumen and made reasonable decisions. When ad revenue plummeted, she stopped living on that and started having someone else pay her.
Beet Beet used to kill herself pouring over posts like a mad demon for days on end. She’s smart and absorbed the writing styles from other sites to create a style of her own.
She also has good insight. Her first posts were not so good and she’s hit and miss now that she doesn’t pour over this stuff every day.
Give Molls a chance. She hasn’t, no matter how much some of you wish, changed the site’s curve.
Wow around here I am unique! Totally out of the demographic completely in every single category!
Yeah, me too.
Plus I’m not buying the google numbers. There really is no way for Sasha to know her demographic without paying a third party to conduct an interview. Maybe she has, but highly unlikely. I’ve contracted third party interviewers and if you don’t have a valid phone number and a statistically valid sample size (with valid phone numbers) you are just throwing your money (or your company’s money) in a big pile of shit.
Perez actually combated this problem by making his users re-register and he required them to provide demographic info. That is really the best way to gauge your readers (in my humble opinion). Of course people lie like mo-fos, but that is accounted for in the final report– if you contract a third party; highly recommended if you have the funding (and it isn’t cheap!).
Cute or not, these one big happy photo ops make me want to puke all over their shoes.
Total phonies.
And all you adamantly defending them should really take a step back and listen to yourselves, you sound INSANE.
well i thought it was funny, headline and all… and true
later 4 the twins…we want more shiloh!
she’s the coolest, most adorable ‘gerber’ baby in the whole wide world.
:-)
The girl looks like she has Downs Syndrome! – not to be mean but she does!
They are fugly kids tho
Wow! You are so funny! “Hey – look, that little kid looks like she has Downs Syndrom! Haha, what a fugly kid! Look at me! I’m so mature!!! I’m uber jealous of Angelina’s gorgeous beauty so I’m going to make fun of her kids!! BEING RETARDED!!!! MENTAL RETARDATION IS SO FUNNY!!!! HAHAHAH RETARDS!”
You are such a loser, words cannot describe it. You and Molls should have an idiot party.
I’ll be willing to bet, you RULE the playground.
I am the original blah and I totally don’t agree with this person’s opinion and lack of maturity.
get your own name. Douche.
I beg your pardon.
I’m sure your ears perked up and your tail started wagging as soon as you heard your name. Gross.
I will say what I want on here, and if someone doesn’t like it, don’t read it..I agree that those two kids are not the prettiest kids I have ever seen..sorry Brangaloonies, but thier not..and the girl does look a little special..hope shes not, but thats my opinion..this is a gossip site, if you want everyone to agree they are the most beautiful children to ever have been born..then go to JJ.
I’m guessing you have lots of cats.
“Not the prettiest kids”. Ha, that’s righteous coming from someon whose avatar photo looks like someone who’d own a gingerbread house and try to eat small children.
lolololololololololol
Will there be any new posts today?
Seriously, back off.
Is this how far this website has gone now? I remember when this website used to be actually funny, one liners made by beet used to be rather witty. Now yet another website has lost site of its soul. Every picture is covered with a massive advert, the real “humour” is lacking and you’ve all been reduced to making fun of children for the quick laughs.
They’re not even two years old. There is no way you can judge the potential of anyone from a few pictures at the tender age of 2.
Just find something actually funny, or give up.
I have no idea how you got this job molls, you’ve yet to interest me in one of your articles yet.
And Beet, you’ve let the home-team down man.
I couldn’t have said it better myself!
Agreed. Been reading forever but I miss Beet and Wendie. Read not nearly as much now.
Seriously, you normals make boring seem like New Year’s Eve.
Are we seeing the same kids…because…they look like mini Shilohs.
You’re slamming BABIES for not looking cute in paparazzi photos, just because their mother is good looking.
I’m going to leave you to think about that, and what it says about you.
Molls, you suck. Bring back Wendie! Nobody should fuck with someone else’s kids… cute, ugly, fat, or thin, it’s just not ok. I haven’t been on this site nearly as much since Wendie left, and I don’t intend to be.
What in the flying fuck? Who says that? You are disgusting.
i think they’re cute
Eh. I think all babies are ugly. But that’s just me.
CUTE KIDS BUT THEY LOOK LIKE THEY ARE SICK OR HAVE ALLERGIES
I think they call them camel babies. Carry a lot of water in their heads.
Why don’t they replace Molls with you, EBD- you’re much funnier.
Are you kidding? I think they’re adorable and look just like Shiloh! Maybe it’s the continuing hormones making me love all babies.
My daughter has the same blanket as knox!
Also, these kids are super cute gtfo.
I want to fuck angelina jolei hard if i see her”
That’s crazy and pea brained to say cruel things about these 2 year old kids. They are adorable. Anyway, even if you don’t agree, a lot of old family TV shows, had “cute kids” that didn’t grow up to be “beautiful people.” Also some of the not so cute kids grow up looking pretty hot when they become adults. Although not babies, but as kids, Patrick Dempsey “Mr. McDreamy” and Jerry O’Connell (Stand by Me fame) were not classicly cute but are hottys now. Think twice. Words hurt.
