Angelina Jolie Breastfeeding on Cover of W Magazine

October 9, 2008

Angelina Jolie chose not to strike a pose for her W Magazine cover shoot. Instead her partner, Brad Pitt, shot the mother of his children as she breastfed one of their infant twins. Fifty-four percent of lilsugar readers said they had their pictures taken while nursing. What do you think of Angelina's natural photograph — picture perfect or should not have been pictured?

I, personally, would never the World having access to a picture of me, not long after giving birth, with my boob out for all to see. Breastfeeding or no. But Angelina looks gorgeous, content and in love. Kudos to her for letting Brad take the shot and then having the guts to put it on the cover of a mag. She looks great.

I think this is a beautiful photo. I love the fact that it is on the cover of a national magazine. Go, Angie!

not a fan of this being on W, it's a beautiful picture but one that doesn't need to be on a national magazine.

She looks lovely. Shiloh looks just like her!

She looks tired, which I love. But I'd also kill to look that "rough."

Yeah I would love to look as "rough" as her ;-)

I'll take her "rough" look anyday. She looks happy, in love and beautiful. I think those that posted hateful comments over on Pop are just those overly obsessed gossip hounds.

I keep typing posts and losing them with an "internal error." Anywho, I don't want to type it all again but I cover if I can, baby doesn't allow it much. Very few people notice.

Pics are great but they are so personal, I understand she's a celeb and all but I wouldn't want to share such personal things with the whole wide world. I don't have a problem with breastfeeding it's natural but I'll stay covered up while doing so.

The expression on her face is also probably a result of the hormones released while breastfeeding. Happy hormones. :)

I've never seen that expression on her face. At first I couldn't believe that a photographer captured that moment.. but then when I read that Brad took the photo, it all made sense. PS It's nice to see one of the hottest sex symbols be captured with her breast out for another purpose than some man to grab on to. I think she looks amazing and natural..nothing gross or sexual about this photo. The people who think otherwise are the ones who are sexualizing it.

What Greggie said. The comments in the Pop thread scared me.

Greggie 4 years 32 weeks

I have no idea, but it's kind of scary. I keep getting the giggles over the line "Brad Pitt shot the mother of his children as she breastfed one of their infant twins."

I just read some of the comments on the popsugar post. WOW. And I thought it got nasty over here on the lilsugar threads ;-) I wonder if you get more young immature people on popsugar? Or maybe people not ready for babies and all the stuff that comes with it?

Greggie 4 years 32 weeks

If my face wasn't twice the size of hers and if I wasn't bald, I'd copy this photo to make my avatar. But mine wouldn't be beautiful, it'd be scary. *lol*

I think that the picture is GORGEOUS! I seriously wouldn't have even noticed her breastfeeding if it wasn't pointed out

What a beautiful shot. Classic, artistic, natural. I think I may actually take a look at the rest of the pics he shot for this issue.

bluesarahlou 4 years 32 weeks

Wow. It's like night and day over here. There are some seriously nasty hateful comments on PopSugar over the exact same picture. I think people are being quite nasty and close-minded.I think the picture is beautiful. She obviously loves being a mother. I don't think it's exploitative in any way, nor do I think she's doing it only to promote her movie. And I would've said this on Pop but after 250+ comments, it probably wouldn't have been read.
