Us Weekly dropped a huge non-shocker today: the magazine alleged Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt conceived their newborn twins using in vitro fertilization. The couple reportedly wanted to conceive twins Knox and Vivienne quickly, so they turned to science, rather than, you know, just being happy with the million other babies they already have.
“They conceived through in vitro fertilization,” a well-placed source within their camp tells Us. “They both desperately wanted more babies soon.”
The chance of having fraternal twins at Angelina’s age (33) naturally is under 1 percent; with in vitro, the chances are 25 percent. Says Dr. Arthur Wisot of L.A.’s Reproductive Medical Group (who did not treat the couple), “We live in an era of reproductive freedom, so anybody can do anything they want within legal limits.”
The actress chose the procedure (which can cost around $12,000 a pop) so “she wouldn’t have to deal with the stress of trying to get pregnant,” the source tells Us. “She could just knock it out.”
A source adds: “They were too impatient.”
Fascinating. This situation reminds me of this:

And how difficult is it to have sex? I mean, really. Maybe that would mean she’d have to give brad his balls back for a few minutes…
