TMZ.com reports the bidding among celebrity magazines for the first pictures of the forthcoming Brangelina twins has reached $15 million -- and will probably go a lot higher.

It's down to a two-horse derby -- only People and OK! are left.

How desperate are they? TMZ.com writes that the pics are so valuable they would "print blank pages" the rest of year to get them. Can a weekly mag actually recoup all that cash? Probably not, but it doesn't matter. The prestige is what counts.

A People rep says: "We'd love to see the photos in People. We wish the family well." OK!'s rep refused to address a dollar figure with TMZ, but admits it would be "foolish" not to bid.

One good thing from all this wanton spending -- the money would go to charity, as designated by parents Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.

Five days after “Entertainment Tonight” reported that Angelina Jolie had given birth to twins, it is starting to look more and more as if the syndicated show — which is on every weeknight, primarily on CBS affiliates — made a serious mistake.

A law firm representing Ms. Jolie says that an impostor claiming to be the actress’s assistant misled some news organizations. According to Ms. Jolie’s camp, the birth report was false.

The law firm, Lavely & Singer, sent a letter of warning to roughly two dozen news media outlets on Monday.

“A random individual has engaged in a scheme to intentionally harm my client and deceive her fans, the public and the media through illegal and tortuous impersonation of Ms. Jolie’s longtime assistant, Holly,” the letter said.
