It's hard to imagine giving birth to
just one baby worth over $6 million, let alone two! But that's exactly
what golden couple Brad and Angelina have done. Just two weeks after
giving birth to twins Vivienne and Knox, the couple sold exclusive international
picture rights to Hello Magazine for $15 million.
The
duo's first biological baby, Shiloh, sold for $4 million with the money
going to charity which the same intended for funds the twins raise.
This means overall, the caring pair have raised $19 million for merely
holding a few buns in the oven. Sweet.
But it gets better! People magazine have reportedly purchased the US
rights to the first pictures for ANOTHER $15 million! That makes it $30
million worldwide for the first pictures of Vivienne and Knox!
People.com is unveiling the pictures this Sunday, August 3rd at 7PM
eastern standard time with the pictures hitting the stands in next
week's issue. Hello magazine hits the stands worldwide on on August
6th.
I know I'll be buying a copy!
Update: According to WWD, Hello and People are splitting the $15 million, not paying $15 million each.
It's not $30 million but that is still some serious coin for charity.
