In a record-breaking photoshoot deal, the two-week-old “Brangelina” twins, Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline, made their American photo debut on People.com on Sunday.
To catch the glimpse of the world’s most famous twins, born on July 12 in France, one has to purchase this week's special double issue of People.
People magazine posted the magazine cover with the two very first pictures of the 24-day-old Vivienne and Knox on its website Sunday night and rushed its magazine to newsstands on Monday, publishing two days earlier than usual.
The deal gives People right to sell pictures and interview of the world’s most beautiful Jolie-Pitt family for the reported record sum of 14 million dollars. However, People declined to confirm the fee amount it paid to the couple).
People has published an exclusive 19-page view of the “Brangelina” family of eight including the mom, dad, their four older children, Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and of course their newborn twins Knox and Vivienne.
A photograph of Jolie and Pitt with their newborn twins is on the cover, while some more are inside, billed on the cover as a 19-page family album.
"It is chaos, but we are managing it and having a wonderful time," Jolie told People in an exclusive photo session/interview, describing how her daily life is going at the Château Miraval in Provence, France, where the couple along with their six children have been spending he summers.
"[Shiloh] and Z pick out the twins' clothes and help change and hold them," the Hollywood beauty told People. "It's sweet – they are little mommies."
"It's still a cuckoo's nest," Pitt added. Describing who looks like whom, Pitt said: “Viv is proving to resemble Ange in spirit, attitude and physicality… And Knox, he’s a bit of me.”
Getty Images, the world's leading creator and distributor of visual content and digital media which was involved in the Shiloh deal, is also taking part this time around. A Getty Images photographer took the Jolie-Pitt family’s photographs last week in the South of France.
London-based Hello! Magazine, which reserves the International rights to publish the pictures of the 24-day-old twins, has released the pictures in this week's issue, and titles the cover as “The Biggest Exclusive of the Year.”
The money from the exclusive photo shoot of the newborn twins, who were born one minute apart, and the family will be used for a charitable purpose. The raised funds will be donated to an organization created by Pitt and Jolie that largely focuses on helping children around the world.
The twins are the celebrity couple’s fifth and sixth children. Jolie and Pitt, known in the media as "Brangelina", have four other children, 3 adopted and one biological daughter, all under the age of seven. The birth of twins, Vivienne and Knox, has brought the number of children of the world’s most beautiful family to six.
Angelina has a son Maddox, 6, whom she adopted in neighboring Cambodia in 2002, a 3 years old daughter Zahara, whom she adopted in year 2006 from Ethiopia, Pax, 4, from Vietnam, and a 21-month-old biological daughter, Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt, with Brad Pitt, of "Ocean's Eleven" fame.
