Leave it to the National Enquirer to find a Brad Pitt-Angelina Jolie “feud” just as the couple announced their engagement.
For the third consecutive week, the tabloid has published a story claiming one of Pitt and Jolie’s children is the reason for strife.
First, Jolie was supposedly freaking out over the possibility of losing adopted son Pax to his birth mother (not true).
Then, little Maddox’s alleged infatuation with Jennifer Aniston was said to be driving Jolie crazy (completely false).
But apparently all of that was mere prelude to the real issue in the household.
According to the Enquirer, Pitt is “seeing red over his daughter Zahara’s blue hair — and he’s battling Angelina Jolie over their little girl’s sudden desire to become a supermodel!”
Supposedly, Zahara recently got bright-blue braided extensions to mimic the look of Katy Perry and Selena Gomez.
“That’s just fine with her glamorous mom, who’s thrilled the once shy little beauty is being more assertive,” reports the magazine, continuing, “But dad Brad is dead set against it because he thinks the adopted tyke is too young to be thinking about a modeling career.”
Huh?
A so-called “source” says Zahara has “decided she wants to be a cover girl,” and has been practicing a “runway walk” and “pout” while showing interest in both her mom’s outfits and her own.
“Zahara is becoming a mini-fashion diva and Angie couldn’t be prouder,” alleges the Enquirer “source,” but Pitt “isn’t on board with the whole model idea.”
Um… Zahara is seven years old.
She likes clothes and got a new hairdo — but she’s not on the threshold of a “supermodel” career that’s driving a wedge between her parents.
The Enquirer has long been obsessed with what Jolie and Pitt’s children wear, jumping to all sorts of conclusions that bear no resemblance to reality.
This is another of those cases.
A source close to the family tells Gossip Cop there’s been absolutely no talk of Zahara modeling, nor has her hair (or anything else) been causing problems between Pitt and Jolie.
