The Pitt’s Baby “Registry”

May 31st, 2006 by Shmuly Tennenhaus

It’s my lunch break. And I will blog to my hearts content. Mr. & Mrs Smith just had a baby girl. Mazal Tov. They named their daughter Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt. An OK name if you ask me, though Shmuly is ALSO a hot name.

So, inspired by a lunch-hunch, I went to the WHOIS directory to check up on the status on the URL ShilohNouvelJolie-Pitt.com. Guess what? The domain name has already been purchased! It gets better. Way better. The Administrative/Technical Contact listed is none other than…

Angelina Jolie (domainadmin@lavelysinger.com)
+1.3105563501
Fax: +1.3105563615
c/o Evan Spiegel, Esq. - Lavely & Singer (Attorneys-At-Law)
2049 Century Park East, Suite 2400
Los Angeles, CA 90067
US

Lavely is a well known law firm with many celebrity client. They’re obviously worth every penny; my best guess is that Lavely, not the Pitt’s, registered the site. The only things I’d have done differently are 1) buy the name for 3 years minimum (why worry about it later?) & 2) paid the extra few bucks to keep the WHOIS info hidden from public eye.

The site was created on May 27th, 2006 at 8:27 PM, the same day the baby was born! Remember that the 27th was on a Saturday! It was purchased for one year. What they intend on doing with it….I haven’t a clue. Maybe they’ll post baby pictures there. Of course, a fake Myspace account has already been created under this name…

They spent the extra money on buying every domain with the names in it.

If you want to squat on a domian, IsabellaDamon.com is available. Matt Damon’s wife is due any day now. I should probably register the domain and give it to him as a baby present.

“Lavely is a well known law firm with many celebrity client.”

Of course they are. However, they apparently DON’T read RN. If they did, they would understand that you NEVER and I repeate NEVER, place your complete DOB on a Web Site.

The first 2 I checked on the following page almost screamed out, PLEASE steal my Idenity :)

Aren’t they all lawyers and as such you can find out their bd’s via the bar associations?

A domain squatter named Jim Larrison reads Revenews. He registered that domain last night.

Now I feel bad. I should have registered it and found Matt Damon’s agent to transfer it to him.

Jim, if you’re not a squatter and to give it to Matt, please let me know. If you are a squatter… come on, man. That’s just wrong.

As we talk about domains and domain squatting, I will have to work on my next blog regarding the economic drag that I believe domainers have on the Internet economy. Not all of them, but a lot of them.

Hey David,

I am the one that picked up that Damon domain. I am sending it to Matt Damons people at no cost. I am starting a foundation that protects domain names for businesses and celebrities and this is my first domain! It is a non-profit and all money that is raised or donated is used to register domains for protection and/or donated to charity.

I will keep you updated
