See More... Pictures of Angelina Jolie's newborn twins, Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline, could have sold for a record $15 to $20 million, photographers tell The Associated Press.

Angelina delivered the twins Saturday night via Caesarean section at a hospital in France. According to the AP, a French newspaper, the Nice Matin, is reporting that the debut photos have already been sold to an undisclosed U.S. publication and that the money will go to a charity of the couple's choice.

Forbes magazine estimated that the top prices paid for star baby pics went to Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony earlier this year for a cover shoot of twins Max and Emme. The price tag was a reported $6 million. Before that, pics of Brad and Angelina's previous little bundle of joy, Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, reportedly went for $4 million in 2006, with the money going to charity.

  • the only reason I support this is that I know Angelina is going to donate the entire sum to charity. otherwise I'd be disgusted.

  • How about donating the money to charity HERE in the United States? Education, Elderly care, homelessness. Oh, I know why, it won't get as much attention as building an orphanage in Ruwanda!!! Shameful!

    • you are being silly, if America is the land of opportunity, what does that make "Ruwanda" i fully support Angie and Brads decisions to donate to foreign countries, not very many ``stars`donate their time and money as much as brad and Angie.

    • maybe if you lived for 1 day in Ruwanda you'd understand. Yes I realize there are problems here at home, but they are nothing compared to the slaughters that are happening there. I used to live on the streets, so I am aware of the homeless problems we have here. Show some compation!

    • I believe its selfish to say that it is better to give to the United State's than Africa.African countries are not as fortunate and don't really no how to manage there natural resources. The Jolie-Pitt family should be able to do what ever they like with there money.Its great that they acctually give money to a charity.

  • I think the money should stay here in the usa also, but to help any child any where is good.And yes they should get married. I wish them all the happiness that anyone or any family deserves. cant wait to see the pictures

  • Congratulations on your beautiful (i'm sure) babies! Angelina, as time goes on, look for signs of your mother in the children. My late mother loved gold (and anything that glittered!) and my youngest granddaughter, now 11, is a magpie just like her. It makes me laugh with happiness and I tell her where she gets it from. Best wishes to all for your future happiness. Sincerely, Aussiemackgal

  • I think Brad & Angie have what it takes to be parents & givers. They do need to show their childern what true comment is & that is to make a comment to each other before GOD.The best only real thing we can give our babies is JESUS!!!!!!!

    Nichole R? Mathew M? Jen & Marc? Not a one. So I say good for you Jolie Pitt family.

  • I think Brad and jolie make a perfect couple, since they have three children of there own, it would be better if she didn't have anymore and start back making movies that we enjoy seeing her in. And may God keep jolie and her family safe.
