I feel sorry for Vanessa. She has children for him. He's living with them...
If she doesn't know her place in his life by now?
Her attempts at "keeping" him are futile.

And it's not even about "putting a ring on it" (curse beowulf for creating that term) - if she knows her man enough, and had enough confidence in what she provides him - she wouldn't be fretting like this and letting her insecurities get the best of her.

You can't keep anyone from anyone.

Now, according to the New York Post, Johnny Depp’s long-time girlfriend and mother of his children Vanessa Paradis isn’t about to let her man become Jolie’s latest victim.

WTF?

Am I the only ones who sees ALL levels of wrong in this statement?

Nope, you're not the only one.

Whatever's happening with Jolie's love life only she and those directly involved know for sure. But I for one am far from comfortable with the popular media image of her as some kind of evil succubus out to destroy marriages and steal other people's men. It takes two, so they say, to tango. Whatever goes on is never entirely her fault.


While we're (kind of) on the subject, I am so beyond tired of hearing about that professional victim, Jennifer Aniston, and how Angelina snatched her man and ruined her life. Shut. the. fuck. up. already.

Does she really go on about that? Is she at least heaping some of the blame on Brad?

I think it's more the media than her saying it directly, but she's not exactly taking steps to correct any of the tabloid or pap. shows, either. Every damned mention of her anywhere is about how she's working to move on from Brad, and what will happen when she and Angie wind up at the same industry party, and if she's jealous of the Jolie-Pitt baby litter, and blah blah blah.

All it would take is a simple statement along the lines of, "Okay, guys. Enough. We split years ago." But IMO I think she doesn't object because basks in the woman-left-lonely role.

Depp’s Girlfriend Says No Angelina Jolie?

Screen siren Angelina Jolie has something of a reputation for luring her co-stars away from their significant others with her knockout looks and charitable spirit (think Billy Bob Thornton and Brad Pitt).

Now, according to the New York Post, Johnny Depp’s long-time girlfriend and mother of his children Vanessa Paradis isn’t about to let her man become Jolie’s latest victim.

What allegedly set Paradis off was the revelation of a romantic scene between Depp and Jolie in their upcoming thriller, "The Tourist." Because of this a source close to the project told The New York Post, "He's currently trying to [get out of the movie], but I don't know if he's succeeded. But he's trying and they're talking about replacing him with [Jolie's partner] Brad Pitt or Leonardo DiCaprio."

The Post adds that neither Depp or Jolie’s reps, Sony Pictures, or the film’s producer Graham King could be reached for comment as of yesterday, but photographs of Depp and Jolie on the set have been floating around, so it seems as though he’s still tied to the film.

This isn’t the first glitch with the character Johnny Depp is set to play in "The Tourist". According to IMDB.com, the part was first initially going to be played by Tom Cruise who was then replaced by "Avatar’s" Sam Worthington, who ultimately gave the part up "due to creative differences."

Guess we’ll just have to wait and see if Depp gets replaced too.

*****

Who knows? With Jolie's history, maybe Vanessa is being smart...??? At the same time, she sounds awfully insecure, as if she doesn't trust him or his decisions.

yeeeeah, should have probably wifed her by now
