First Pictures of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s Twins Sold for $14 Million

Twins Vivienne Marcheline and Knox Leon have to be the richest babies in the world…or at least the youngest philanthropists in the worlds. Why? Because reports have said that the first pictures of them are going to be sold for $14 million and all the money will be donated to charity.

According to E! Online, People magazine and Hello! magazine will pay that enormous sum. People has won the U.S. and Canadian rights to the twins ‘first photo shoot and Hello! Has the international exclusive. No one officially confirmed that the photos were worth $14 million but a person who has taken part to the negotiation said that this was the amount of money the magazines were willing to pay.

"We're thrilled to be able to feature these pictures in People," managing editor Larry Hackett said in a statement. "They will delight our readers who have followed the growth of the Jolie-Pitt family."

Let’s hope other celebrities won’t get jealous because their twins got less money. Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony’s twins Max and Emme got $6 million for their first photo shoot. Oh, poor babies!

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie said that the entire amount of money would go to charity.

“The Jolie-Pitt family and Getty Images have agreed that all proceeds will be used for charitable purposes,” the agency said in a statement.

According to Reuters, Getty Images said on Friday that it had already done an exclusive photo shoot of the twins with the rest of the family Jolie, Pitt and the couple's four other children, Maddox, Zahara, Pax and Shiloh. A preview of People magazine's cover will be posted on People.com Sunday afternoon.

Twins Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline were born on July 12 at a hospital in Nice, France, joining their siblings Maddox,6, Pax, 4, Zahara, 3, and Shiloh, 2.

Sources said that the couple has opted for fertility treatments when they decided to have more children. The babies were conceived through in vitro fertilization as the couple wanted more babies soon.

Jolie said on “The Daily Show” last year that the number fluctuated “between seven and 13 or 14.”

Well…we wish them good luck. early saidheir first photo shoot. Oh, poor babies! will be donated to charity.
