Angelina Jolie's New Tattoo Sparks Adoption Rumors

By Christo Varghese Posted Apr 6th 2011 02:20AM

An additional line to an existing tattoo has sparked rumors that Angelina Jolie may be adopting another child.

Wonderwall is reporting that Jolie was on a goodwill trip to the Tunisia-Libya border recently where she was visiting with refugees, when a photograph showed a new set of map coordinates on her arm, just beneath the six tattoos of coordinates of the birthplaces of her six children.

The discovery of the new tattoo has rumors swirling that Jolie may be planning to adopt another child.

While the coordinates are difficult to make out in its entirety, the first part of the tattoo read '35 degrees north' which could possibly indicate Algeria.

But PEOPLE is reporting that a source close to Jolie has said not to read too much into her skin art.

Jolie has adopted three children, Maddox, 9, from Cambodia, Pax, 7, from Vietnam and Zahara, 6, from Ethiopia.

She also has three kids with her partner Brad Pitt; Shiloh, 4, born in Namibia and 2-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox, born in France.

What a totally trashy woman. Yet America has made her a superstar and a millionaire. What a trashy nation that makes of us all.

Just because you have the "means" to adopt certainly does not mean that you should! Children need to be raised with the love and attention of devoted parents. Unfortunately the children that she can afford to buy are being raised by nannies while she is out galavanting all over the country in search of more children to add to her litter.

Adoptions in this country are very difficult and the birth parents can claim their child years after an adoption is finalized. Why risk that kind of heartbreak after years and expense of trying to conceive, this is why our daughter chose international adoption.

I'm not a fan of multiple tatoos but if that's what a person wants, it's their body. I think Angelina and Brad enjoy a large family and have the means to support an additional child. The country of adoption, or birth, is their choice and there's nothing wrong with that. I'm always surprised at how much hate is directed towards these two people. Live and let live!

Who really gives a s**t about Jolie's tattoo or for that matter Jolie? What in the world made her having and adopting kids so special? She is not the most beautiful woman in the world, she makes stupid films and her bf isn't much any more either. Go away.

Joli to me is sickening with all those numbers on her body. All of her tatoos to me represent the opposite of motherhood. As for adopting children....What is her problem with feeding and adopting children here in the USA who are also hungry and without parents???? I just dont like her.

By Bonbon

Is it me or is this woman starting to look really hideous, you did good Brad, you left the beautiful california girl for this inked up thing, you go!!!!!

By Kris

I really dont care how many kids or tattoos she has...the fact that she has adopted kids no one else wanted is enough info for me.Let them be parents and be done with it...the focus should be on that they have adopted,not some ugly tattoo...thats obviously for reasons we dont really need to know.

I think it's their life and it is no business of ours. If they want to adopt, either here or internationally, that is their business. As long as the children are loved and provided for I say go for it. As for the tattoos, I'm not a fan of them but again its her body, her choice and her business. I like both Brad and Angelina and wish them nothing but love and luck! At least they arnt plastered all over the news for their drinking, drugs etc like so many other celebrities are. I think the media needs to butt out of celebrities lives and let them live.

I am still wondering how an ex addict is allowed to adopt.

Children are not collectables. Perhaps money spent on helping children get adopted and improving group homes would be ways to serve more children.

Yes I beleive adopting in the US can be hard-but I have to disagree with the fact that adoption from other countries is due to parents that have died. Madonna's son-she adopted remember that his birth father was very much alive. Our system gives parents an open adoption policy-in which the parents that adopt the child can keep in contact with the birthmom. Our Foster care system also allows parent to get their children back-many are in the system do to drug use-or other aspects of life that have caused their children to be removed from the home. I think the goal was to have children stay with the parent that created them. Unfortunately-they either get lost in the system-or are abused by the system-Its very sad what happens to children really. And I agree America seem to have this odd idea that the whole world is in need-except anyone who lives in America-because we are such a priviledged nation. And to be a snot-why didn't they adopt from New Orleans? After Katrina that was a diffinate place of hurt. They have the right to their life-and their lifestyle-but as for admiration, there are other people that do far more for children-sincerely, and they don't get their name in the paper.

They honestly look very much like gps coordinates.
