ANGELINA JOLIE ON BREAST BEHAVIOUR

Angelina Jolie has appeared on the front cover of W magazine apparently breastfeeding one of her new twin babies.

A picture of the actress on the front of the November issue of the magazine shows Jolie with her top partially opened and a baby's hand reaching up towards her.

Jolie gave birth two twins Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline in July.

The magazine cover is said to be one of a collection of private photos taken by Jolie's partner Brad Pitt.

La Leche League International, a breast-feeding group, praised the actress' decision to be photographed breast-feeding.

"Breastfeeding in public reveals a whole lot less than what has been revealed on the red carpet... I think we do need more role models like Angelina Jolie willing to be photographed and say, 'Hey look, it can be done, it oughta be done,'" spokeswoman Jane Crouse said.

Pitt and Jolie have another child, Shiloh, and three adopted children, Maddox, Pax and Zahara.
