People has scored the photos of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's newborn twins, the second time the celebrity magazine won the North American rights to the couple's exclusive baby pictures in exchange for a hefty donation to charity.

The magazine will feature Vivienne Marcheline and Knox Leon in an issue to hit newsstands Monday, People spokeswoman Nancy Valentino said Friday. Valentino said she didn't know how much was paid for the photos, which were expected to fetch a figure that would dwarf previous baby-pic payouts.

"We're thrilled to be able to feature these pictures in People," managing editor Larry Hackett said.

People plans to unveil the first photo on its Web site Sunday evening.

Jolie and Pitt sold the rights to the first shots of their daughter Shiloh, now 2, to Getty Images in exchange for a donation to charity in 2005.

Bernie Mac Hospitalized For Pneumonia

Bernie Mac was hospitalized in Chicago for pneumonia, his representative said. "Mr. Mac is responding well to treatment and will be released soon," he said in a statement. "He asked that his privacy and that of his family is respected while he gets well."

His representative says the pneumonia is not related to Mac's diagnosis of sarcoidosis, an autoimmune disease that causes inflammation in organs such as the lungs or lymph nodes.

Mac, 50, has been in remission from sarcoidosis since 2005, when he announced he has had the disease for two decades.
