I do not read People, but I earnestly hope that was a bit of satire.

Family of the year? Really? With what criteria - braking up a good marriage?

You cannot say that anyone 'Broke Up' a marriage, we have no idea what went on behind closed doors, Yes they do have a family. A beautiful one. In the long run all that really happend was a woman adopted kids in a country where a single woman COULD adopt. Here in the USA, it is not easy to adpot. Trust me. But everyone can have an openion, but until you walked a mile in each of their shoes, you cannot judge who broke up who's marriage.

Please, she has a history of breaking up marriages and People gives them an award for 'Family of the Year'. What a joke.

Apparently, one doesn't have to do much of anything in People's eyes except be pretty or well-known or high-profile to garner recognition. Says a lot about the substance of People, too, doesn't it? I'll save my praise for real families who've actually raised their children rather than carted them around like accessories for a few months or bounced them around as they changed partners. Let's see them survive together through real family challenges and hardships, with real commitment, thank you.

family of the year should go to people who put their children first and do not use them for Pr. mr and mrs jolie are not a family they are two Pr hungry people. they have no marals and they disgust me there are better single and gay people that are are more family than those two she orders and he does he is the nanny she is the mouth piece. people mag be real and if you need famous people michelle phiefer is the real family of the year she has never dragged her kids into the public eye and adopted as american kid and has never used that for PR or to try and show us how she is saving the world. get real

Hmmm, I should try that. Stop using the pill, lay a married man, have an illegitimate child and live with someone I don't trust. I'm sure I would get voted Family of the Year. See anything really can happen.

Hehehehe obviously Angelina didn't break up a good marriage!That statement doesn't make any logical sense. If she did break up Brad & Jennifer's marriage then, the marriage was weak & on shaky ground. Translation, Brad wanted out of his marriage to Jennifer! So if he didn't turn to Angelina it would have been to some other woman! Brad & Angelina do have a truly beautiful family.The three kids are very good looking. Plus Brad & Angie represent the new nuclear family in America.
Adoption & racial-diversity are popping up more & more in families - so they are definitely the NEW MODERN FAMILY!REPRESENT!!

To Kay:
How come Angelina is the only one being blamed for 'getting herself pregnant'??
Excuse me? Why is it when a woman finds herself pregnant it's always her fault? It's 2006 & last I checked this was America, the land of freedom of choice NOT Afghanistan where women are told to obey their husbands! Brad is just as equally responsible for getting Angelina pregnant.He could have used protection. The last time I remembered a woman cannot physically force a man to sleep with her!!!!

Maybe if Jennifer Aniston had gotten off the Pill in 7 years SHE would've been the one holding a beautiful baby for Brad Pitt. Lesson learned the hard way!

Well, guess People magazine isn't for the people anymore. They definately no longer have their finger on the pulse of America. Family of the Year. Give me a break. Maybe the editors at People are reading the Jolie/Pitt hype way to much. Majorly disappointed.

Shame on the panel that made this selection. It's a slap to all American families.

Excellent Excellent Choice! Very Good. Love Brangelina & Family. All the kids are beautiful. Shiloh is absolutely STUNNING! WoW, talk about fabulous genes coming together to create spectacular perfection! However my nod for best Hollywood family would have gone to Will & Jada Pinket-Smith & family. They've been together 10yrs. Both Will & Jada are successful actors & balance family, & stay healthy & beautiful!
