Jolie evades media frenzy over new son

HOLLYWOOD star Angelina Jolie says she is sorry her adoption of a Vietnamese boy has put him in the global spotlight but yesterday she managed to stay a step ahead of the media crowd.

Jolie evaded photographers camped outside her Ho Chi Minh City hotel while, a report said, a representative obtained a Vietnamese passport for the three-year-old boy, whom she picked up from an orphanage the previous day.

An immigration official said Vietnamese formalities had now been completed for Pham Quang Sang, born November 29, 2003, in a local hospital, where he was abandoned by his mother, the VNExpress online daily reported.
