But I'm here to reassure you that Franngelina is still going strong.
(Here is a post I wrote on my old blog that defines for you who "Franngelina" is exactly)....
Brad Pitt + Angelina Jolie = Brangelina.
Right?
And Fred + Anne = Fran.
Wanna play six degrees of separation? Yawn.
Anne to my sister, actress Mary Birdsong: 1 degree.
Mary to George Clooney (in a movie together): 2 degrees.
George to bff Brad: 3 degrees.
Done.
So as couples, we're so together that I feel we should be considered by one and all to be....
Franngelina.
Let's compare the respective partners:
Angelina
6 kids. 3 boys, 3 girls. 3 by birth, 3 by international adoption.
Anne
6 kids. 3 boys, 3 girls. 3 by birth, 3 by international adoption.
Angelina
She was raised by WEALthy celebrities.
Anne
I was raised on WELfare.
Angelina
She is beleaguered by requests for her signature on photos, foreheads, and bits of napkins.
Anne
I am beleaguered by requests for my signature on field trip permission slips, course syllabi, and bus transportation forms.
Angelina
While her partner is off jet-setting and acting in bazillion-dollar films, she is stuck raising six kids all by herself with only six nannies, a full housekeeping staff and a personal chef.
Anne
While my partner is off working, I am stuck raising six kids all by myself with only....well with nothing.
Angelina
Plus Anne
Equals Annegelina
Brad
His name is spelled consonant-r-vowel-d.
Fred
His name is spelled consonant-r-vowel-d.
Uncanny. It's like they're twins.
Brad
Plus Fred
Equals Frad
And last but not least, when you morph Annegelina and Frad, of course you get.....
Franngelina
Thank you, thank you. Please form an orderly line for autographs.
