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]

Hi everyone,Guess I wasn’t the only one having problems posting. Good thing I held off throwing my laptop out of the window. MalayaI love your post and I’d like to respond but for some reason….maybe the Heat over here…I can’t seem to get my brain working…lol. Hopefully as soon as I get home, it’ll be back to functioning (Don’t say a word…yes, I know waht you’re thinking). Anyway, you’ve raised very interesting points…. Points I myself have wondered about both as an "Outside and Insider"
Thank you guys for the translation, I don’t think I will be posting much today, I am having trouble getting on JJ from my computer at work, hopeful the problem can be fix because if I can’t post until later, I don’t know how I would survive this long long day at work and its Friday to boot.
In Forbes magazine celebrity 100 list, they have a comment beside everyone’s name. Here’s what they said about Brad, X, and Angelina.#20 - Brad Pitt - Finds box office fortune - and love - with Mr. and Mrs. Smith#35 - Jennifer Anniston - Her breakup is year’s biggest story; The Breakup packs them in#35 - Angelina Jolie - Trumps U2’s Bono in saving world; survives breaking up Brad and JenSo I guess Angelina once again gets the blame for breaking up the marriage.

Hello everyone, a short quick check on all of my favorite ladies before I have to go back to work…very busy day today again for me. Thanks Ell for the link-I feel bad for her to have to hide her child from the papz…I think it’s look like she was not at the house, but leaving from a back hotel exit…could it be the interview with AC or a visit to her mom.Thanks Stef for the translation link and Lynn-well, the title of the article is " Angelina Jolie saving the world and saving her image" or something like that?>…WTF…you should read the whole article….Forbes jump on the bangwagon of the triangle theory to sale magazine..
they also had the top two percieved qualities for each based on a poll conducted by Forbes. So just imagine these introductions:Ladies & Gentlemen: the sexy and beautiful, Angelina Jolie-PittorLadies and Gentelemen:the handsone and physically fit Brad Jolie-Pitt…I definitely prefer:LADIES AND GENTLEMEN: The attractive and talented Jennifer Aniston!!!!!!the actractive and talented Jenifer Aniston
#858 Lynn Campell,Yes Angelina will get the blame because she’s so beautiful.That and that reason alone gives X the pity from certain people.I read a interview of Brad’s where he said let people think what they want to think,I know my truth and in the end the truth always comes out.Trust me ,the truth will come out one day and a certain persons world will be rocked.
# 822 | hellenehellene, English is not my first language so do you mind to explain me better what you´re trying to say, please? Thank you.
# 862 | to 858 l.campbell -if you can prove that statement is true in a mathematical problem …I don’t know, it’s a tough thereom to prove….good luck with that…so far I’ve already seen 2 holes…2 huge holes…*sighed* back to math again…Cindy2?

My,My some people are acting quite childish.Since you want to go there,yes they used the word talented with X.Big deal,X will NEVER win a oscar or be nominated for one.Also when you look at the E-Score Rank with is a celebrity appeal ranking.X had 12 and Angelina had 19.Angelina is more appealing,X just made more money.
# 843 | ellthanks for the link but I feel awful for them..theyre not given any freedom, they have to shield themselves..:sighs:
