First photos of Jolie-Pitt twins published

NEW YORK, Aug. 4 (UPI) -- The first photographs of the newborn twins born to Hollywood film stars Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were published on the Internet Sunday night.

The mock-up of People magazine's latest cover posted on People.com shows Jolie holding 3-week-old Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline Jolie-Pitt, while Pitt looks on with his arms around his girlfriend.

The couple also has four older children -- ages 6 and under.

"It is chaos, but we are managing it and having a wonderful time," Jolie told People of her family life in Provence, France.

"(It's) still a cuckoo's nest," Pitt agreed.

Jolie said her daughters Zahara, 3, and Shiloh, 2, are helping out, however.

"(Shiloh) and Z pick out (the twins') clothes and help change and hold them," Jolie revealed. "It's sweet -- they are little mommies."

The People cover also features a small photo of Shiloh holding her baby sister.

The magazine, which owns the North American rights to the first-published pictures, features 19 pages of family photos, as well as an interview with the movie stars, in its latest issue.

Hello! magazine, which owns the international rights to the photos, boasts a 17-page spread on the famous family in its new issue, E! Online said. Hello! posted its latest cover, showing the babies lying together as their parents look down at them, on its Web site Sunday, as well.

The celebrity couple reportedly were paid as much as $14 million for the photos.
