Brad, Angelina to get own Aussie stamp
3rd August 2007, 21:08 WST
Superstars Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are set to join the Queen, the Pope and the nation's sporting heroes by being immortalised in an Australia Post stamp.
The Hollywood A-List couple were featured on the cover of a recent best-selling edition of New Idea, the magazine which this week received top honours at the 10th Annual Magazine of the Year Awards.
Australia Post, as major sponsor of the awards, plans to reproduce the best-selling New Idea cover in the form of a 50c stamp.
It shows a smiling Brad and Angelina with their newborn baby girl Shiloh.
"I don't know of any other country in the world that has ever had Brad and Angelina on a stamp," a New Idea spokesman said.
"Whatever the case, these stamps are sure to become instantly collectable and be sought after by philatelists around the country."

Ugh. Are you kidding me?! 
Not fair to put Shiloh on the stamp and leave the others off. I realize it's a stamp and space is limited, but if you can't include all the children, then don't show any. Just sayin'.

Above is the image that they are referring to in the article.
- Of course if it is printed it would be sans the tacky headlines.
But for g-dsake! Australia Post can't be serious? Jeezus! There are many historical figures in Australia who have not received the honor of being on a stamp, but we now have the Jolie-Pitt clans mugs on one? Puhhlease.
Don't get me wrong, I'll probably go out and buy the freakin stamp, but our priorities clearly aren't in order.

Obviously my country is more F'ed up than I thought! Seriously, we have so many historical figures they could put on a damn stamp or stars of our own : ie Kylie Minogue or Dame Edna. WTF do we need Brangelina on a stamp???
