西部落：朱莉皮特夫妇女儿降生的幕后秘密

The long-awaited Brangelina baby has been born. Julian, don't tell me you haven't been on this, on the edge of your seat for this. (All right!)Their baby is a daughter and she is named....(I live for this stuff). Uh, we know that. Er, She's named Shiloh, which has many different meanings. One of them is kiss, there, there has various other meanings as well. So, er, she was born in Africa. They did not come back stateside for this and er, well, we just can't wait to see what the melding of this genetic¹ mix (right) has produced.

Now you know, a lot of people feel sorry for the ex-wife of Brad Pitt, (I do) who was basically er, by all accounts, unceremoniously dropped, er, for his more beautiful, I guess, and glamorous² co-star when they were making Mr. and Mrs. Smith. The interesting thing is this weekend Jennifer Aniston, the poor thing's movie the "Break Up" is coming out with Vince Vaughn and er, this once again overshadows er, that, because that people really, I mean I know you, you joke around about not caring and there are a lot of our viewers who don't care, but it is really unbelievable how many people actually do. (We know...) They care about the pregnancies³ and the births of celebrities⁴.

One thing I haven't seen that normally we have this around errr the company, you know, some of our, our staffers here, when like a celebrity⁵, er couple gets married, there is usually like a pool as to how long they will stay married, (right) you know. And I, I haven't seen one on, on this couple. I'm surprised.

Well, they're not married.

Oh, that's right, they are not.

So that...

Well, no, wait, didn't they get married? What does this...

No, that was a rumor⁶. You are right. There was a rumor. (See it, see how much I'm interested in this stuff.) (inaudible) wedding watch, but they have not actually tied the knot. Now interestingly, I think Angelina said that she would never ever get involved with a married man back when all these rumors⁷ first surfaced.

But wait a minute, wasn't he...

Well, this is my point. She(口误)he, Brad and Jennifer got divorced this past February, and er, I'm no mathematician⁸, but if the baby was born last night, 9 months prior, that's the previous September. (right) So I think she was involved with Brad.

And if you've carried a child, you know it's not 9 months, it's actually 10, (That's right.) because it's 40 weeks.(It's 40 weeks.)

Well, how about a pool then, being that the case. How about a pool then for how long they'll stay together?

I don't know. You know this is so weird⁹, first of all, celebrities' new thing is you name your kids these in any/name things that, you know, you end up being... (Key is not a name, Kiren.) But you know how, I got made fun of for just, for being Kiren as supposed to Karen. OK, I was called Kiron and Koren and they call me cheddar cheese, and(Kids in America are cruel to each other). (cheddar cheese?) Yes, because my last name's Chatri and no one can pronounce that either.

Wrong thing. Just think about your kids still have to get their names called out in nursery school and in elementary school. People, come on.

I'm not sure this (Suri, Shiloh,) Brad and Angelina's kids will have a problem.

Er, (Probably being home schooled) OK, hold on, your babies are named?

Alex and Chesa as what we call them.

And Chesa, that's a very interesting name. ( It's the short for Francesca.)

My, I like that, but Shiloh?

All right...
