Brad Pitt is Dad Of The Year according to a Life & Style Father’s Day poll. "He even skipped the Cannes Film Festival in anticipation of Shiloh’s birth," said L&S’s editor in chief Debra Birnbaum. Above: Brad was spotted chatting on his cell phone this past Monday from the balcony of his Malibu mansion. And then just yesterday, Brad whizzed down the streets of Los Angeles on his custom-made motorcycle with a pal of his. More pictures in the gallery!

Pitt Outbids DiCaprio
It was a battle between Brad Pitt and Leonardo DiCaprio, and Pitt emerged the winner.
The production labels of the two stars — Pitt’s Plan B and DiCaprio’s Appian Way — were engaged in a competitive bidding war through their respective studios, Paramount Pictures and Warner Bros. Pictures, over an upcoming zombie horror book by Max Brooks titled "World War Z."
By Wednesday afternoon, the dust settled with Plan B/Paramount winning the movie rights.
In 2003, Brooks wrote "Zombie Survival Guide," which explained in great deadpan detail how to survive a supposedly impending zombie apocalypse. The book went on to become a surprise cult hit.
"World War Z" also tackles the zombie genre but is set 10 years after a great global zombie epidemic and is a serious oral history of the zombie future told from many perspectives around the world. Crown Publishing is putting the book out in the fall.
The galleys of the book went out around town late last week, but interest took awhile to ignite. By the time execs finally realized they had a potential "tentpole" franchise, the battle lines were drawn between Plan B and Appian Way.
The bidding went back and forth between the two into Tuesday night and carried over into Wednesday. Sources say the rights sold for six figures, with the deal going to seven figures if the film actually gets made.
Brooks was a writer on "Saturday Night Live" from 2001 to 2003 and did voice work on the "Justice League" cartoon series.
There are said to be no hard feelings between the companies, and DiCaprio is starring in "The Departed," the Martin Scorsese crime drama that Pitt and his Plan B are producing. [THR]

#697 / SeyiOh my, I almost missed your post. I was skimming through and suddenly, I came across a familar sounding name. I’m I African and what part? Well before I divulge that li’l piece of info, I have to know….what are you.."Enemy or Friend….of the BAMZS…I mean. Yep, what do you think….I’ll just give out my info….I don’t so….yeah…I’m just kidding. I’ve you heard of Ouidah? Nigeria huh…you know I spent some of formative years in Kaduna….the northern part of Nigeria…and of course you know that. Oh well, it is nice to "see" another African Sister (or brother).
sorry for going off on the gambling tangent# 741 | Zaiyanathanks for the info. i already go to Indian casinos because of proximity from Cali coast, and definetely support them. now i’ll have to go to one closest to the Bay Area. but i probably won’t have time to go, and i won’t have my beloved fellow college gambler friends to go with. we’re going to Vegas just b/c it’s Vegas, for the entertainment factor. sometimes you see the strangest things there ha. along w/ the partying and gambling, we’ll probably be at the pools, ride some rides, maybe catch a show, and more.
When did they show that on Oprah where Angelina is crying while the man is telling that story to her? I saw it had a Oprah logo too. I don’t remember ever seeing or hearing about that.
I hate to admitt it,but Brit was rockin the trailer trash look.Why was she wearing those false eyelashes?# 747 | The real lou++++++++++++++++++++For the same reason she was wearing the weave! The girl is freaking clueless. If she wants to go for the over-the-top blonde bimbo-bombshell look she should take her cues from Dolly and NOT Anna-Nicole! Dolly Parton always says she loves to look "cheap" hooker…except she looks like a really EXPENSIVE hooker trying to look like a cheap hooker and it’s because she does it with attitude and self-deprecation. Britney looks like a cheap hooker without the attitude or the self-awareness of doing it as a statement. She’s just wearing that crap because she actually thinks it looks good!
# 755 | Passing Through | - ROTFLMAO
# 753 | Ciev | I’m sure it’ll be a blast! Down a few for me.. LOL. No, Vegas does have entertainment, crazy as it may seem since it’s build right smack dab in the middle of the desert. Don’t think it would’ve prospered if it weren’t for the Civilian Engineer Corps who built the Hoover Dam, supplying it w/ power and water.Have a great one, Ciev!As for Oprah, yeah, I’m wondering this myself. I never knew of Angie being on her show more than just O mentioning her. When was this footage taken?
#747 Alexanderina and #755 Passing Through,She’s young still.Hopefully age will bring inprovement,God I hope.
# 754 | me I think it was around 2001 0r 02. when Angie first started visiting refugee camps.
# 745 | Alexanderina we were thinking maybe a magic show? got any ideas? i’d want to go to a comedy show, i love comics like Dave Chappelle and Kathy Griffin, but they’re not there. shows in Vegas can be so expensive like Cirque du Soleil or Celine Dion.# 733 | malibumomhey there! lucky you live in malibu. i think i read that you’ve driven by the BAMZS house before, do you live close to them? or would you be able to run into them in say a grocery store ha.
# 754 | me | Sunny posted it once and I posted it twice (if we talking about the same video),. If you havent seen it before, it really tugs at your herat. Thanks Sunny again for sharing…http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=5ApKymqaWaQ&search=angelina%20jolie
# 758 | The real lou | - I don’t know about that, but who knows.
# 761 | guliYou’re welcome!
hey does anyone know what kind of motorcycle Brad has? i think i saw a Honda one similar to his on campus. i’ve always secretly wanted to ride motorcycles and fly planes long before i ever saw BA doing those things. but i’m a very petite girl so i don’t know, or doubt, if they have any sport motorcyles for my size. (no scooters or dirt bikes). i need to look up bikes again because now i think they have seat heights listed for some. but my mom would freak, she doesn’t even want my bro to get one.
thank you Sunny. so Oprah showed that in 2001?The only episode where i thought Oprah mentioned Angelina on was when George clooney was on to talk about his trip to darfur.
764 | Ciev |brad’s bike is a ducati or is it a ducacti? i don’t know. it’s something like that.
# 760 | Ciev | - ITA about the prices of the shows. Do you like Carrot Top(comedian)? I believe that he performing in Vegas and the play Hairspray is also there.
alexanderina- carrot top? u really like him? he looks freaky and sounds annoying, not anywhere being funny. but to each his or her own.
Have you all watched the wedding kiss scene on the unrated MMS dvd?! Holy Jebus! Angie is totally the aggressor in that scene. The smile on Brad’s face is priceless. He can’t even believe he’s kissing Angelina Jolie. Hotness multiplied by 10000000000.
# 768 | me | - Oh gosh no lol, but I just gave Ciev his name, because he is one of the comedian that is playing out there in Vegas that I know off.
G’night my fellow BAMZSters. I’m the only one awake at home and it’s already 12:30 am CST. Have a great chat, and I shall return- hasta manana les amigos y amigas ;~)
# 768 | me | - I have seen it and ITA
# 771 | Zaiyana | - Good Night Zaiyana
I have been reading a lot of your posts. I’m a fan of BAMZS. What a beautiful family. I don’t like " Brangelina." I prefer to call them Brad and Angie.
# 695 | CLINIQUA |you’re right. it gives me goose bumps and the pictures are so clear and most of the pictures are with the children. I love it. Thanks for sharing the link. I really love this family
| Passing Through |HEAT WINS HEAT WINS HEAT WINS! Now we have a series!Ok I watched that train wreck on DATELINE. So looking forward to seeing Angie on ANDERSON 360!IMO They will announce their marriage when Maddox/Zahara’s adoption is final.KEEP ON ROCKIN BAMZS!
