Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt make a rare public appearance with Knox and Vivienne as they treat the twins to ice cream

It was a case of double the fun for Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt as they treated their twins Knox and Vivienne to ice cream during a visit to Amman, Jordan.
The couple made a surprise visit to the Licky Licious gelato store where the owner Ihab Fakhouri snapped a picture of the family that was later posted on Twitter.
It was a very rare public outing for the 14-month-old twins who, unlike their high-profile siblings, have only been seen a handful of times since their birth.

While the couple's three adopted children Maddox, seven, Pax, five, Zahara, four, and biological daughter, Shiloh, three, regularly join their A-list parents while out and about, the littlest Jolie-Pitts have been kept largely out of the spotlight.
It has led to speculation about their health, with some US publications claiming they suffered allergies and were kept hidden away for safety reasons.

But the pair looked like 'really happy kids' according to Fakhouri, who gave them pecan, caramel, vanilla and mango ice cream to try.

'They were walking down the street and saw our shop.
'Brad stopped and said, "Do you guys have ice cream?" I said "Are you kidding? Of course!"' Fakhouri told America's People magazine.
'The kids look so much like Angelina. They look like their mother. But they have Brad's eyes,' he added.
Angelina was today seen spending the day with her elder daughters, taking Shiloh and Zahara for a trip to the supermarket after arriving in Brignoles, France.
It has been a whirlwind week for globe-trotters Angelina and Brad, who visited Damascus for a humanitarian visit just days ago.

The actress, dressed in a floor-length white ensemble, looked emotional as she spent over an hour comforting Iraqi youngsters who had fled to Syria to avoid conflict in their homeland.
The 34-year-old travelled to the country in her role as a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations' refugee agency, UNHCR, and was accompanied by Brad.
The visit prompted rumours the pair plan to adopt yet another child.

‘At one point she looked close to tears and put out her hands to touch the girl so she’d know she cared,’ a source said.

Angelina has previously admitted that she and Brad intend to expand their already large brood and wouldn't say no to adopting again.
'We love children, we want a big family, so we never - you know, never say no,' she said earlier this year.
During their trip to Syria, she and Brad visited two families in Damascus' poorest suburbs before meeting Syrian President Bashar Assad to discuss the Iraqi refugee crisis.
'Most Iraqi refugees cannot return to Iraq in view of the severe trauma they experienced there, the uncertainty linked to the coming Iraqi elections, the security issues and the lack of basic services,' Angelina said in a UNHCR statement.

'They will, therefore, be in need of continued support from the international community.'
It was Angelina's second visit to Syria in two years.
The actress has worked with UNHCR since early 2001.
In 2007, a foundation set up by Angelina and Brad donated $1million to help those affected by the conflict in Sudan's Darfur region and neighbouring Chad.
Angelina has visited Iraq three times. Her last trip was in July, when she visited a settlement for displaced Iraqis in northwest Baghdad.

Angelina Jolie is looking painfully thin as she meets the Prime Minister in Pakistan

Angelina Jolie was looking painfully thin as she met with the Prime Minister of Pakistan yesterday.
The 35-year-old's taupe baggy dress did little to hide her skeletal frame and her thin bony wrists were clearly visible as she shook hands with Yousaf Raza Gillani at his house in Islamabad.
Jolie is in Pakistan in her role of United Nations goodwill ambassador to raise awareness of the plight of the victims of the recent floods that have devastated the country.

More than 1,500 Pakistanis have been killed and around 20million affected by flooding brought on by the annual monsoon rains last month.

Crops have been devastated and disease is spreading among survivors.


'I am very moved by them and I hope that I am able to do something to help bring attention to the situation for all of the people in need in Pakistan,'  Jolie said.
‘This is not just a humanitarian crisis, it is an economic and social catastrophe.

Cover-up: Jolie's baggy taupe tunic did nothing to camouflage her skeletal frame

Earlier in the day the actress covered her head up in a black scarf, and did her best to blend in with a group of women she was meeting who had lost their children in the disaster. 
Jolie was visiting the Kandaro II Camp in Nowshera, Khyber Pakhtunkhwa province.
'I was shocked especially by how high the flood waters went,' Jolie told reporters. 'In some of the people's houses, it was nine feet high.'
The U.N. hopes Jolie's visit will bring attention and subsequent funds to the country.
Only $294 million of the $460 million in emergency funds requested by the UN has been received so far, despite what Maurizio Giuliano, spokesman for the UN Office for the Coordination of Humanitarian Affairs, calls: 'One of the worst humanitarian disasters in UN history, in terms of number of people that we have to assist and also the area covered.'
'There's lots of speculation about why this one has not gotten the attention it deserves,' Jolie said. 'Even all of the wonderful coverage ... is not getting the response that usually it's able to get.'

The Salt star also had some sharp words for a Florida church planning to burn copies of the Quran to mark the ninth anniversary of the September 11 terrorist attacks in New York City.
'I have hardly the words that somebody would do that to somebody's religious book,' Jolie told reporters in Islamabad after her visit to the refugee camp, according to the Associated Press.
Jolie has been looking particularly gaunt again recently.
She looked startlingly skinny as she took twins Vivienne and Knox to visit their father Brad Pitt on set in Los Angeles last week.

Scrawny arms exposed by a sleeveless top and minuscule legs highlighted by tight black trousers, she looked barely strong enough to carry Vivienne.
But she was obviously in full 'mummy mode' as she had one of the childrens' blankets flung casually over one shoulder and the other in her mouth.
Jolie recently appeared on screen in action thriller Salt where her role as a hard-as-nails CIA agent sat a little uncomfortably with her frail physique.

Introducing Angelina Jolie... the 16-year-old curvaceous swimsuit model

Aspiring model: the actress, then keen to make her big break, was shot by photographer Sean McCall
Though she clearly missed out on puppy fat, the teenage Angelina did have rounded hips and soft fleshy arms.

Today, they have gone the same way as those of any other A-lister - to mostly skin and bone. At the same time, interestingly, her chest size has increased.

Her unblemished skin is also a distant memory. Angelina, now 32, is understood to have at least 13 tattoos decorating her body, including the geographical co-ordinates of her children's birthplaces etched on to her left shoulder.

These photographs, uncovered by the American magazine InStyle, were taken when the actress was a teenage swimsuit model.

Sixteen years on, she is expecting her second biological child with third husband Brad Pitt. The birth will bring their brood to five, including their three adopted children.

But before Brad, babies and unparalleled global stardom, Angelina was a struggling model desperate to make her big break.

The rebellious daughter of actor Jon Voight starred in the racy swimsuit shoot with photographer Sean McCall at just 16 in an attempt to carve out her own career.

The recently unearthed pictures show her in a series of skimpy outfits, including a plum bikini and pearl-strap one-piece.
Angelina's teens proved a tumultuous time for her - at 14, Angelina was permitted to move in her older boyfriend into her mother Marcheline Bertrand's LA home and later dropped out of acting classes at Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute.

Estranged from her father, she has since admitted to suffering bouts of depression, but went on to return to theatre studies and graduate from Beverly Hills High School.

Wild child: Angelina was then a student at Beverly Hills High School
Of that time, she has said: "I had that problem early on when I couldn't feel a bond with another human being. Mostly it was all about trying to connect."

While the star made her best effort to put her feminine wiles on show during the shoot, the images are positively demure compared to what was to come in the following years.
As well as a shock red carpet kiss with her brother James Haven, Angelina had a bisexual relationship with a Calvin Klein model Jenny Shimizu and famously wore a vial of her then husband Billy Bob Thorton's blood around her neck.


However in the last five years and with an Oscar under her belt for Girl Interrupted, Angelina has tamed her wild child ways, successfully transforming herself into a box-office star, UN goodwill ambassador and mother of four.

Angelina, who has three adopted children, Maddox, Pax Thien, Zahara and a biological daughter Shiloh, is currently pregnant with another child.

The 32-year-old recently revealed that despite world wide interest in her and Pitt, her children just see them as very ordinary parents.

She said: "I think our kids will look back on all that as being really funny when they get older, because they think of us as being really dorky - in fact, the dorkiest people on the planet!"

Angelina Jolie is arrested by police... but it's only a scene from her latest movie

Angelina Jolie certainly seems to be having a lot of interesting experiences while shooting her new movie, Salt.
Yesterday she filmed being arrested by police, put in handcuffs and escorted out of a building.
She and the officers appeared to be covered in dust outside the courtyard of St. Bart's Church in Manhattan.

The 33-year-old plays a CIA officer on a mission to clear her name after she is accused of being a Russian sleeper agent. She even gets to change her hair colour.
Her latest adventure comes just days after the 33-year-old filmed another equally action-packed scene.

Wearing a blonde wig, shards of glass and smoke could be seen blown out of a window a few feet from her in Midtown Manhattan.
She was again sporting a nasty cut  to her knee - thought to be just make-up - which was visible during the scenes in Washington.
The Hollywood star's presence caused traffic to come to a standstill in the capital as she darted through vehicles and a crowd of extras, while cameramen could be seen hoisted on a cherry picker to get aerial shots.

Shocking Time cover shows mother, 26, breastfeeding son, almost four

A mother of two has told of how she breastfeeds her two sons who are aged three and five.
Jamie Lynne Grumet, 26, has appeared on the cover of Time magazine breastfeeding her three-year-old Aram as he stands on a small seat to reach her.
The Los Angeles mother has spoken about how she applies the same attachment parenting method to her adopted five-year-old son Samuel. 
 
Controversial: Jamie Lynne Grumet has appeared on the cover of Time magazine (above) as an attachment parent. She has told of how she breastfeeds her three and five-year-oldsControversial: Jamie Lynne Grumet has appeared on the cover of Time magazine (above) as an attachment parent. She has told of how she breastfeeds her three and five-year-olds
Ms Grumet was breastfed by her own mother until the age of six.
In a larger feature story about the controversial parenting technique, she tells the magazine that she is able to recall memories of being latched onto her mother's breast.
She said: 'It's really warm. It's like embracing your mother, like a hug. You feel comforted, nurtured and really, really loved. I had so much self-confidence as a child, and I know it's from that.'
She has aimed to provide the same type of support to Samuel, who was adopted from Ethiopia in November of 2010.
Samuel was breastfed by his new mother instantly. He is latched to her breast 'maybe once a month.'

Ms Grumet said: 'Being able to give him that [comfort] with the trauma that he faced was really, really important to me. I didn't realise how much it would help my attachment to him.
'When his English improved, because the connection was there, he didn't do it as much.'
The mother has written on her blog about how much Aram, who will turn four next month, enjoys to be breastfed.
In one post, a photograph of Aram in the Playboy mansion has been uploaded.
The picture is captioned with the text: 'I've breastfed Aram at the Playboy mansion. I actually felt it was the most appropriate place on earth to do it.'
There is no explanation to explain why she believes this.
Ms Grumet is completely aware of how unorthodox the parenting technique, which was originally coined by U.S. pediatrician Dr William Sears, can be perceived. But she strongly believes her methods are 'biologically normal.'
'There are people who tell me they're going to call social services on me or that it's child molestation, she said. 'I really don't think I can reason with those people.'
She believes that the more people see it, the more it will become 'normal in our culture.'
'There seems to be a war going on between conventional parenting and attachment parenting,' she continued. 'That's what I want to avoid. I want everyone to be encouraging. We're not opposing teams.
'We all need to be encouraging to each other and I don't think we're doing a very good job at that.'
The technique also involves parents co-sleeping with their children and wearing them in a sling to ensure they remain physically close to the body.
Ms Grumet believes Dr Sears is 'great' and a 'gentle spirit.'
'I've read all his books.I find what he's saying to be non-judgemental and relevant to what's happening today and what we're finding out about some of the issues that are popping up with out children's health,' she said.
'I feel like he really is doing this because he knows this is best. And the way he does it is graceful and educational rather than condeming.'
She added that her mother was also a fan of attachment parenting for its health reasons.
'She wasn't a hippie,' she said. 'Everyone thinks she must have been because we lived in northern California. My dad did go to Berkeley, but he was a nutritional scientist. He got his master's there and his PhD. My parents were really into nutrition.'
Ms Grumet wrote on her blog: 'I love how my mother never made breastfeeding a dirty or secret act.'
It is not the first time the parenting technique has come under the microscope in recent times.
Blossom actress Mayim Bialik recently wrote a book about how she breastfeeds her three-year-old son and allows her six-year-old to sleep on a mattress on the floor with her and her husband.
Dr Bialik, who has a PhD in neuroscience, told Newsok.com: 'When we treat our children kindly and expect love and give love, we hopefully are raising children that then expect that and give that to the world around them.'

She kept both of her children close to her person for many of their first months by placing them in a sling across her body every day.
A $35 sling was used for both Miles, six, and Fred, three, who were kept laid down rather than upright to ensure the baby kept its natural shape.
The couple have also allowed their children to develop correct toilet habits as soon as they realise their body’s natural signals.
Dr Bialik said in regards to diaper use: ‘You’re basically training your child to use their pants as a bathroom and two years later we have them turn around and do all sorts of complicated manipulations to get them to unlearn.’
Ms Grumet is angered by others who judge her for breastfeeding her children for an extended amount of time.
She wrote on her blog: 'When critics are making very uneducated analyses of these issues (with absolutely no persona experience), it actually hurts the mothers trying to care for their children.
'Find me a child that was breastfed past two that said they wished they hadn't been.'
She continued: 'Motherhood is hard enough then to hear constantly how you are caring for your child is "weird" or makes people "uncomfortable" is almost too much to handle.'
