_ June 8: People - "Brad & Angelina's Big Night Out"

_ This week: In Touch - "Angie & Brad Meet with Lawyers"

_ This week; Life & Style - "Brad Confirms Another Baby!"

_ This week: OK! - "Left Alone, Where's Brad?"

In Touch fired another salvo yesterday reporting that Angelina's surprise 34th-birthday party (the surprise perhaps being that Brad flew in for it from L.A.) ended "in tears."

Brad gave Angie a specially commissioned painting of their family, as well as Agent Provocateur lingerie, but then the two began fighting over - who else - Jennifer Aniston.

"Things were going fine, and then Angie started accusing Brad of meeting Jen in L.A.," said an anonymous source. "It turned into a massive blowup, which left Brad more disillusioned than ever."

"[Brad] told her straight out that he's had enough and was out of there," another pal said.

"This split has been simmering for months," said a third anonymous yente, "and unless something drastic happens, it is going to boil over very soon. The only thing keeping Brad from officially walking out is their six kids."

* The makers of "Slumdog Million-

aire" have bought a home for one of the two child stars discovered in Mumbai's slums.

The purchase of a 250-square-foot 1BR apartment for the family of Azharuddin Mohammed Ismail, 10, was completed Monday, said Nirja Mattoo, who helps oversee the Jai Ho trust set up by the filmmakers to help Azharuddin and his 9-year-old co-star, Rubina Ali.

The tiny apartment, in the Mumbai suburb of Santa Cruz West, cost about $50,000, and will be transferred from the trust to Azhar when he turns 18, provided he completes school.

We hope it's nice. 50G for an apartment the size of a small studio sure isn't an Indian slum price.

* After a year of nasty infighting, 78

percent of voting members of the Screen Actors Guild (including 86 percent of the New York membership) said yes to a two-year contract covering movies and prime-time TV shows made by the major Hollywood studios.

The vote repudiated the strategy of replaced union leaders who had once called for a strike.

The contract immediately raises actors' minimum pay by 3 percent and grants another 3.5 percent raise in the second year of the deal, which, along with better pension benefits and some Internet compensation, gives them $105 million in overall gains, the union said.

Pension benefits? Internet compensation? Raises? Who voted against that?
