Celebrity baby pic deals

- Two years after commanding a record sum for exclusive photos of daughter Shiloh, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have sold the rights to the first glimpse of their newborn twins for $14 million, a person involved in the negotiations for the photos told The Associated Press on Friday.

The person asked not to be named because he was not authorized to release the figure.

It was easily the most lucrative deal in the continuing trend that was kicked into high gear in 2006 when People magazine featured Pitt, Jolie and baby Shiloh, now 2, on its cover for a reported $4 million.
