So much for ignoring someone until they go away: it's been some time since we dignified the existence of 5W Public Relations' cracky despot Ronn [sic] Torossian, and yet he refuses to fade into the ether. Case in point: he's managed to find a way to flack off of the most important event of the century, the birth of Shiloh Jolie-Pitt. Yes, Ronn knows that newborn babies are an incredible PR opportunity(!), and the parents shouldn't be the only ones who get exploit little cutesy-wutesy. That shirt Shiloh is wearing in her lucrative pictures? Why, it's designed by Kingsley and available at Belly Maternity — and it was delivered to Africa, courtesy of Ronn's carrier pigeons. SCORE!

After the jump, the press release gloats about "product placement at its finest," and Ronn reveals his plan to tattoo celebrity babies with his clients' logos.

Product Placement at its Finest - Los Angeles Celebrity Product Placement Division of 5W Successfully Places Belly Maternity Product in the Most Anticipated Baby Photo of All Time
