***NOW WITH VIDEO AND NEW PHOTOS - SCROLL***

Wednesday in Cannes (see Cannes photos here) "Today" confirmed the rumor that's been floating for a few months: She and Brad Pitt are expecting twins:

In an interview that took place in Cannes on Wednesday with the "Today" show's Natalie Morales, airing tonight on Access Hollywood and tomorrow on "Today," Angelina confirmed the baby news that has been rumored for months.


The twins will be the couple's 5th & 6th children.

Angelina confirmed the news in a side-by-side interview with Jack Black -- they are promoting their new Dreamworks animated film, "Kung Fu Panda."

Jack was the first to let the news slip, and then Angelina followed up with her own confirmation.

Watch the video:

The transcript:

NATALIE MORALES:
(To Jack Black) And you're gonna be a daddy. Actually, well, congratulations all around in this room 'cause we're all expecting. Your wife and you are expecting your second....

JACK BLACK:
I know. I got the phone on vibrate 'cause I might have to leave this interview.

NATALIE MORALES:
Uh-oh.

NATALIE MORALES:
Any day, right?

JACK BLACK:
Yeah, any day.

NATALIE MORALES:
Yeah. And what about you, Angelina? You're getting pretty close yourself, right?

ANGELINA JOLIE:
In a few months.

NATALIE MORALES:
A few months. And you've been feeling good? Has the pregnancy been different... ?

ANGELINA JOLIE:
...Well, it's different that I'm -- I have four kids now. So--

NATALIE MORALES:
Yeah, that is a lot. (LAUGHTER)

ANGELINA JOLIE:
...the doctors keep saying, "Relax."

NATALIE MORALES:
Well, you seem so relaxed.

ANGELINA JOLIE:
I am very re-- I'm very happy. I-- well, unlike most women, I love being pregnant.

NATALIE MORALES:
I do, too. What-- what do you like most about being pregnant?

ANGELINA JOLIE:
I-- I guess it just reminds you of all those things - you feel more like a woman than you've ever felt. You just feel like everything about your body is there for your baby and you're just-- just feels-- nice. I don't know.

NATALIE MORALES:
You're getting a lot of kung fu action in your belly right now? (LAUGHTER)

ANGELINA JOLIE:
Yeah. Yeah.

NATALIE MORALES:
Are you gonna stay here in France to deliver?

ANGELINA JOLIE:
Possibly.

NATALIE MORALES:
Possibly, yeah. And-- and, Brad, you guys both looking forward to-- to adding to the family?

ANGELINA JOLIE:
Yeah, of course we are.

JACK BLACK:
You're gonna have as many as Brady Bunch when you have these.

NATALIE MORALES:
So is that confirmed? Is it two?

ANGELINA JOLIE:
Yeah, yeah.

NATALIE MORALES:
So you're having twins?

JACK BLACK:
I'm all-- I'm glad I didn't blow it!

ANGELINA JOLIE:
Well Jack's just confirmed it actually.

JACK BLACK:
Is that true?

ANGELINA JOLIE:
Yeah, you did.

JACK BLACK:
I can't confirm or deny.

ANGELINA JOLIE:
No, no, no. We're out. We're fine.

NATALIE MORALES:
You know the sexes of the babies or are you keeping that private?

ANGELINA JOLIE:
We'd like to keep that private.

*****

NATALIE MORALES:
Do you talk to your children about what's going on around the world?

ANGELINA JOLIE:
Uh-huh.

NATALIE MORALES:
Let them know where they came from and...

ANGELINA JOLIE:
Yeah, they all know. They all know their-- even our boys know that their countries didn't have the most peaceful relationship. (LAUGHTER) I mean, they know. But they have a real pride in who they are. Our daughter's very proud that she's African. And our boys are very proud that they're Asian - they know about their country. And it's even funny-- they're little. So it's funny - things down to their food or their flags or their music. But yeah, we keep nothing from them when we take them around the world. So they're more resilient than we are as adults.

You know, they-- they can understand things and absorb them and put them kind of in the right place as-- and as we all know, they ask great questions about life. And you see something happening and they'll say, "Well, why is this?" And they ask questions about war that are poignant and spot on because they're the questions we should all be asking ourselves.

Saving the planet by having a litter are we? How nice. Thanks for taking up the slack for us non-breeders Brad and Angie.

And are stiletto heels standard attire for expectant moms these days?

JB looks just as pregnant. priceless! XD

Anyone who cares is an idiot.
And no, I won't be returning to read your brainy responses on why reading about Brangelina is blah...blah..blah...
Get a life.

Is Jack trying to stand in for Daddy with the tummy pat?

Pregnant women are incredibly erotic.

What is with all these celebrities having twins lately? Is there a new procedure to guarantee twins and is it the new "in" thing to do?

Take a look around your neighborhood, or wherever -- there's a signifigant increase in multiple births in general, not limited to only celebrities.

I like Angelina and think she's lovely but, seriously, what is up the veins in her arm?

it is called increased blood volume (2/3rds more than non-pregnant) and increased blood pressure from being pregnant.

maybe, but they are like that when she's not pregnant too, and I've never seen veins like that on any other pregnant woman, myself included.

Beautiful!
10:13 AM on 05/15/2008
I'm more proud of her now than I ever was. The fact that she's not raising those children to be stupid, naive, rich, spoiled brats; and that they know where they come from and the turmoil that their country is in, makes me believe that they are the greatest celebrity parents ever. I wish them well and all the best. Rock on Jolie-Pitts!

There must be many ways our government can make use of the people in the entertainment field.
They can serve world wide as ambassadors of good will. So many are solid family oriented.They are warm and giving. Married or single they are the best reps we are fortunate to have, I am sure the world can use a few laughs and warm relations.

Both salubrious and lugubrious concurrently.

God, I've come to despise Jack Black's over-the-top schtick. I stumbled across him in a small movie part before he became a 'personality'. Pretty watchable acting, now its like watching a bad actor trying and failing to play a buffoon.
10:06 AM on 05/15/2008
I hope for the sake of the unborn twins that the Jack Black contact doesn't have any lost-lasting effect.

I like both Pitt and Jolie. Jolie is caring and hot! Wow! I mean Wow!
08:54 AM on 05/15/2008
Don't like either one of them!

I don't want to sound like a jerk-off -- yet what in the world is possessing people to have children...

The world is on the verge of imploding...

The world potentially & possibly faces nuclear anniliation at any second if missiles were to start flying...

The world is so full of evil-doers / liars / bullshitters makes the end appear even sooner...

Knowing that the end times is highly probable & is happening now -- WHY BRING A CHILD INTO A WORLD THAT HAS NO FUTURE...

It is equivalent to Tony Randall having a child in his late 70's / early 80's & the child possibly grows up fatherless...

That is pure selfishness on the parts of the parents & they will have to answer for those actions that will come into fruition soon enough...

It really doesn't matter it the world was to last another 5 or 10 + years = bringing a child into a world that is somewhat dead & rapidly dying will cost the parents dearly & frankly there is no excuse...

Hmmm hasn't it been the end times for about 2,000 years now? Yes lets make all our major life decisions on some imaginary date of destruction. That's intelligent.

Don't worry the "Earth" is shaking itself off and doing it's own house cleaning. See China and Africa. Two countries that have zero concept of poulation control. Too many people, not enough food or space.
01:20 PM on 05/15/2008
Let's see, China has the One Child Policy, so they have severely curtailed their reproduction rate through forced contraception and abortion (see 'Too Many Men', 60 minutes, 2006).
Bush put into effect the Global Gag Rule so even the few family planning clinics left in Africa that receive international funding get no US dollars if they even define the word 'abortion'...both seem to have plenty of space...hmmm...
