The Tax Advantages to the Brangelina Baby Pics
August 4th, 2008 by Evil Beet
I hadn’t thought about this before.
Fox News reports that the money Hello! and People magazines paid for the Knox and Vivi pics — between $10 and $15M, depending on whom you believe — will actually go directly to charity. Not first to Brad and Angie, and then to charity, but directly to the Jolie Pitt Foundation.
This means that the money is actually a tax write-off for these magazines.
Which means that, after you consider the tax implications, what they really paid for the pics is considerably less.
I’m just saying.
