OMG, New Breaking Dawn Posters!
You’ve pinpointed the EXACT reason I cannot bear KStew in these films. Agreed, the character is paper thin (as best), but at least there was some semblance of charm in the way she is written in the books. There is no charm in her acting, no... -

You have to admit, it is weird if she actually calls her “John”.
Seems I recall Cher referring to Chastity as Frank at an early age.
EBD… I’m disappointed in you, it wasn’t Frank.. It was Butch!
She started asking to be called John after falling in love with Peter Pan. In fact, she stopped answering to anything but “John”
Well, then, that’s cool. Life & Style has clearly fallen far. I was just mildly amused by the “John” bit.
She is a fucking ADORABLE, though, isn’t she? I am generally not a kid person, but no one can deny the sheer levels of cuteness there.
She is super cute.
embarrassing cover. New low, life and “style.” Unless she’s actually calling her John, and not as a joke or term of endearment.
Who cares if she calls her John??? When I was three, I alternatively wanted to be Peter Pan, Captain Hook, Wendy and a turtle. Woe to those who just called me my name. Pretending that there is any situation in which this cover would be appropriate is ridiculous.
Oh, I’m not saying that calling her daughter (who is emphatically not named John) “John” is an excuse for Life & Style magazine to be absolutely retarded. It’s just weird.
Don’t kids go through asinine phases like that, though? Maybe she *wants* to be called John. I wanted to be a puppy for a solid 4 months when I was 3 – sleeping in my blankets on the floor, hair in pigtails for ears, etc. I changed my name to “Shecky”, too.
I think Shiloh looks totes adorable… and more importantly, happy.
For my third or fourth birthday I demanded riding chaps and a vest. My mom tried to get me the little cowgirl outfit. Not only did I insist on the chaps, but I wore them every single day for a year. And I lived right outside NYC-it wasn’t like we were in Oklahoma. I feel bad for my mom having to drag me around looking like that. But who gives a crap.
Hahah that is awesome! I don’t think I ever went out in costume, but I went through a lengthy floral leggings phase complete with tattered knees from climbing, the lace trimmed socks, and raggedy over-sized t-shirts. I basically looked homeless.
I think my teacher pointed out one time that I might want to hold off on the running around and falling during recess because she felt bad continually sending me home to my mom with new holes in my leggings everyday. Kids will be kids, get over it Life&Style!
I read a previous interview with Brad where he states that Shiloh has been refusing to answer to anything but John. So I think they’re taking that way out of context. Shiloh looks happy and healthy and loved, I think she’s set :) So I agree; stupid magazine!
If it’s true it’s weird, but if not then who cares how she dresses her own kid? And what if Shiloh got gum in her hair and that’s why it had to be cut?
For Halloween one year I got to pick my own costume. I wanted to be a fairy princess. I choose a pink swimsuit, with white tights, a red cape, and a BLACK SPARKLY TUTU AND A PLASTIC CROWN! No one knew what the fsck I was, but I thought it was AWESOME. I would have worn that outfit everyday had my Mom let me…
My mom made me get that same haircut when I was her age. I HATED IT! She did it because (this is gross) I chewed my hair as a kid and it was the only way I would stop. Oh, and I got a hotwheel stuck in it.
I’m doubting she insists on being called John, but if she does it’s likely something she’ll grow out of. Kids are weird, that’s why I don’t have them.
“She only wants to be called John. John or Peter. So it’s a Peter Pan thing. So we’ve got to call her John. ‘Shi, do you want …’ – ‘John. I’m John.’ And then I’ll say, ‘John, would you like some orange juice?’ And she goes, ‘No!’ So, you know, it’s just that kind of stuff that’s cute to parents, and it’s probably really obnoxious to other people.” – Brad Pitt on Oprah
I read an interview by the “expert” they quoted and she said they completely changed the intent of what she said about Shiloh and they didn’t give her final approval on the article. She actually said it’s good that her parents let her dress they way she wants.
So, you know, suck it, Life & Style…
They’re acting like a girl possibly wanting to behave like a boy at age 3 is scandalous and horrible. Children act on whims and have phases like the other posters have said. If she was showing signs of growing up to be some kind of psychopath I would be worried. Having short hair and wearing pants, so what? Means nothing. I’m actually more concerned about the super-girly pageant toddlers. Not because of what they are wearing but because of the belief system they are being brought up in.
“Not because of what they are wearing but because of the belief system they are being brought up in.”
Damn right.
Agreed. The freak-out factor would be multiplied by a million if they had a boy who insisted on wearing girls’ clothes, a girl’s hairstyle and wanted to be called Wendy.
The kid already has the odd name of Shiloh, so if she’s going through a John phase, so what? And what about all the weirdos (see Tiger Woods and Charlie Sheen) who name their girls Sam? Maybe that’s so they won’t be tempted to come on to them when they hit adolescence. Then again, maybe that’s not a deterrent either.
Word. Pageant kids scare the crap out of me. Mostly because you know pageant parents are somewhere nearby, and those people are insane.
This is so ridiculous.
I was such a tomboy when I was little, spent most of my time playing outside, getting dirty and hurting myself, didn’t like wearing dresses etc. and it didn’t do me any harm, in fact I ended up being pretty girly when I got older.
It’s pretty disgusting that they even wrote this article imo.
LOL… this is funny.
no lie, though.. I ALWAYS thought Shiloh was a boy until now. oops.
How many kids are in that house? And what are the odds there are scissors for kid craft projects? Think the kids might have decided to play barber / beauty shop? If the Barbies are all scalped, what other option do they have?
Just wait until all the all the “abuse” stories start up when the kids get old enough to fall off skateboards, rollerblades and bikes.
i think her haircut is adorable!
Man, Pitt can’t deny this child. She looks just like him. A little mini-me.
Sick of these 2 douchebags and attention whores passing as charitable persons and do-gooders. Their kids dont live a normal life. How can it be so since she’s wacko and he is her puppet? But as usual 99% of us are too idiot to see this.
aww shes so cute
shame on anyone who has a problem with a little girl WANTING to dress as a boy and wanting to be called john
i wanted to be a effing cat when i was that young
and i crawled on all fours for week with a collar

shes so freggin adorable! I had the same haircut when I was that age, and went through a super tom-boy phase as well as a girly girl princess phase. she looks like a happy healthy little girl……if there is any celeb child that i think will have some issues i think its going to be Suri cruise…
I’d never – EVER – admit this aloud, and I’d deny it if anybody ever asked me about it… but at the age of three years old, after seeing both my older brother pee standing up, I decided if he could do it, then I damn well could too.
So I spent the next week trying to figure out the mechanics of it, and when I finally attempted it, I ended up pissing all over the floor.
I was also a tomboy, and spent most of my time playing with my brothers friends, while also wearing boys hand-me-downs. I played boys-league sports, and my mum kept my hair short (in the boyish-cut that Shiloh has) because it was a bitch to deal with because I hated bathing and hated having hard-to-manipulate scrunchies in my hair.
Now, I’m girly and feminine — what I did, didn’t seem to make it any harder for me to understand who I was or that I was a girl; I can’t imagine how difficult it would have been to grow up with tabloids talking shit about what seems to be normal behavior for young kids.
Fuck Life & Style.
