Zahara Jolie May Need Hip Surgery

Posted on September 14, 2007 at 10:22 am (PST)

The Sun UK is reporting that Zahara Jolie, the adopted daughter of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, may need surgery on her hip to correct a hip dysplasia. This is weird because only 1 in 1,000 babies have hip dysplasia, and the disease occurs most often in dogs. This must be something related to her malnutrition in Africa or something, but it could also be genetic.

Ever see that Bruce Willis movie Unbreakable? There was a guy who became a villain because his bones were like glass and would break just from walking too hard, and he sold comic book drawings to make money like they were fine art. It wasn’t a comedy, but I laughed a couple of times. In Africa Zahara could have been eaten by a lion or tiger because she can’t run. Well, we have the technology, we can rebuild her. We can make her better, stronger, faster. Da da da da, the bionic munchkin.

Update: A new report says Pitt’s rep told The Sun the report was false, but they ran the story anyway.
