Report: Angelina Jolie Gives Birth to Twins

"The Insider" confirms that Angelina Jolie has given birth to a baby girl and boy in Nice, France. Dr. Michel Sussmann, the obstetrician who delivered the twins, said Angelina gave birth to a boy named Knox Leon and a girl named Vivienne Marcheline by Cesarian section Saturday night.

"Everything is going well," Sussman said, adding that Angelina was expected to stay in the hospital for a few more days. "The mother, the babies, the father are doing marvelously well." Sussman said Knox weighed 5.02 pounds and Vivienne weighed 5 pounds.

Angelina's partner Brad Pitt was present for the procedure, which took place at the seaside Lenval hospital in southern France. The Cesarian was moved up from its original date "for medical reasons" so the babies could be born "in the best conditions."

The highly anticipated twins join Brad and Angelina's established brood of Maddox, 6; Pax, 4; Zahara, 3, and Shiloh, 2.
