Two shutterbugs were taken into police custody after getting into a dispute with guards outside the Jolie-Pitt’s home in southern France.
According to E! News, the paps were so determined to get photos of Brangelina and the new twins Knox and Vivienne, that they snuck onto the property in camouflage suits and, once found by two guards, got into an altercation.
“We caught the two and tried to escort them off the property and the guy’s just gone berserk, thrashing out, kicking and actually biting one of the security people, breaking his finger, drawing blood and screaming that he had hepatitis C,” Tony Webb, head of the Jolie-Pitt guard squad, told press.
Paparazzo Luc Goursolas claims the guards punched and kicked him, requiring three stitches in his head. Goursolas also denies that he claimed he had hepatitis C, insisting instead that HIV was his fictional disease of choice.
“I was pouring blood. I threw myself at them, put blood all over them, and told them that I had HIV so they would stop hitting me.”

She tells Public, “He lets me talk to whoever I want. He has complete blind
faith in me.”
However, she did warn that if the 43-year-old wanted to keep her, he needed “to be sexy”.

Anything is possible in the vivacious land of Las Vegas… including the nuptials of wax figurines Angelina Joile and Brad Pitt.
Not so says Brad Pitt’s publicist, Cindy Guagentia.
“I personally found it a little odd that they were re-creating a wedding that never really happened. As Brad’s representative, I found it disturbing,” she said.
A pseudo-wedding was in the works at Madame Tussauds wax museum in honour of unveiling a new wax Jolie.
The ceremony was set complete with a wax George Clooney filling in as best man, and a guest list including figures of Elvis, Frank Sinatra, Luciano Pavarotti, Liberace, John Wayne, Ben Affleck and Bugsy Siegel.
Shucks! That’s one wedding I would have loved to attend.
Hollywood’s hottest philanthropic couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt won’t adopt a baby from India.

Reports also indicated they even thought of a name, India, to honour the child’s birthplace.
Brangelina have a baby daughter Shiloh and two adopted children, five-year-old Cambodian Maddox and 22-months-old Ethiopian Zahara.
Brad Pitt is set to shoot his latest film, a western titled The Assassination of Jesse James, in Calgary this summer.
According to the Calgary Sun, Pitt was the one who pushed to bring the project to the Albertan city, where he filmed Legends of the Fall in 1993.
“It’s one of the most beautiful places I’ve filmed,” Pitt once said while promoting Ocean’s Twelve. “I’d come back in a heartbeat if the right project came along.”
An unnamed Warner Bros. executive told the Calgary paper that Jesse James has been fast-tracked to begin shooting after being approved only last week.
“We have a tentative date of late August or early September,” said the executive. “Brad Pitt is the only actor attached to the project at this time.”
Jesse James is just one of several films preparing to shoot in Alberta in the coming months. Also approved for production are the Robin Williams comedy RV, a Robert Duvall western called Daughters of Joy, and a tale of a wagon train journey titled September Dawn.
