I am officially at the point of being tired of hearing how happy these folks are. But with their brood of Pittlets about to be expanded from four to six, and with her Cannes Film Festival duties well behind her, Angelina doesn’t seem to have much to do these days but dwell on how happy she is.

And tell us all about it. Again.

Angelina gave an interview after her Cannes festivities saying that her lifestyle, hectic as it is, is easier to juggle with motherhood rather than a regular career. She says she’s very lucky.

We KNOW.

She acknowledges that many mothers don’t have the kind of work where they only have to work a few months every year and knows her schedule is small compared to others.

Hollywood’s power couple have also just recently bought a $35 million dollar chateau in France complete with vineyard, lake, forest, and yes, even a moat. A blinking MOAT? Yes, what every family of eight needs.

But nonetheless, despite how hectic their lives are, they still make sure one of the two is always home with the kiddoes. And their nannies, because yes, they do have nannies, but they are quick to add that none of them spend the night. Poor things, how do they manage all of that with no overnight help? Must be their happiness that gets them through those tough times.

But doesn’t it look like she already has her hands full? You can’t see many pictures of Angelina these days without at least one bambino on her hips, in her arms, etcetera, but it’s rare to see her with the entire brood all at once. Here is Angelina and the gang in New Orleans the other day as they made their way to a convenience stand for some treats. And she almost actually looks like a normal, have my hands full, kind of mom here, doesn’t she?

Walking around New Orleans Angelina carried little Shiloh who is almost 2, and held hands with Zahara while the older kids lagged behind with their hands full of treats. But of course, nowadays you can’t seem to mention these folks’ names without talking about their charity work as well.

Angelina and Brad are in New Orleans right now to help a group of about 600 volunteers on a rejuvenation project to recover from the damages of Hurricane Katrina. While they work away, and work with the volunteers, Angelina and Brad are staying in their 1.7 million dollar French Quarter home, and Brad is helping the charity group Make It Right.

But Brad and Angelina are reportedly ‘ecstatic’ about babies boy and girl on the way. As if they would say anything else. She plans on delivering the children in France, and they are also looking to expand their real estate over there, as the couple have their eyes on a 10 million dollar property near the French Riviera. My, makes the French Quarter home sound like a shack, huh?

Not sure, how I would take that. But I think out of the three of them, Jennifer has handled the whole situation with the most maturity and class. Mind you, she wasn’t the cheater, so we can only expect that from her right? And I think by making the showing to the pre-Oscar’s party she was making a pretty bold statement that she is “so over” the whole thing. Way to go Jenn!

Again, so good to see Owen back to work, can’t wait to see his latest. As for Jenn? Love the girl. And I mean, anyone that would look that good in cargo pants and a tank top, I would almost be forced to hate, but she will always get props from me.

Who can you expect to see this year? Bono from U2, Reese Witherspoon, and Eli Manning for starters. And of course, charity wouldn’t be charity without the face of someone from the Pitt-Jolie clan, so Brad Pitt will be making an appearance as well.This years “Idol Gives Back!” is proud to brag that their lineup includes everything from music legends to Oscar Award winners, so this year should be better, and raise even more than last year.

Also on the docket are: Miley Cyrus, Mariah Carey, Eli and Peyton Manning, Fergie, Chris Daughtry (yum!), Carrie Underwood, Annie Lennox, John Legend, and Snoop Dogg.

“Idol Gives Back!” is still working to support and raise money for underprivileged kids. My guess will be that the Pitt component will reflect something in the New Orleans area. Set your DVR’s or warm up that remote, “Idol Gives Back!” will air on April 9th.

Interesting to note as well that this is the same bash Angelina and Brad made their first public appearance at as well. Jenn says it’s less painful to see them than to avoid them, while Brad hasn’t confirmed his attendance yet. Hmmm…..I’m wondering. How guilty do you have to be to turn down a hosting job at Hollywood’s biggest party of the year?

Brad Pitt has a bloody nose, that or he really got into some buffalo wings, on the set of his new movie “Burn After Reading”. Wonderin’ what the film is about? Here’s some info from IMDB:

A disk containing the memoirs of a CIA agent ends up in the hands of two unscrupulous gym employees who attempt to sell it.

This sounds like it could be done in 30 minutes.
