Angelina Jolie Gives Birth to the Messiah

He is born, the holy child! Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie gave birth to a little daughter the night of May 27, 2006, in Namibia and she is called the messiah.
The Hollywood stars have named their baby daughter Shiloh, a Hebrew word which translates roughly as “the peaceful one” and is taken by Christians to mean the messiah. Jolie, 30, gave birth to the girl, full name Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt, on Saturday in the southern African country of Namibia, where the couple had taken over an entire hotel. No translations for Nouvel other than the French for new were offered.
That’s it. Barbie and Ken are the proud parents of a sure-to-be-plastically-perfect child. All hail the new messiah!
Update: A reader tells me that the word shiloh (prounounced “Sh-E-Lo” in hebrew) doesn’t have any special meanings, it simply translates to “yours.” He adds that they were probably trying to name the baby “mine” which is “sheli” (Sh-E-Li) in hebrew. Thanks for clearing that up Adam!

Shiloh? Wasn’t that a movie about a dog? What an ironic name for the most beautiful baby in the world.
