Brad Pitt Holds the Fort Down

Brad Pitt Holds the Fort Down

I believe this is Brad Pitt in the Rajasthan capital of Jaipur at a film shoot at the historical Bichoon Fort. Brad later went to a palace in the city to shoot a commercial for a Japanese product. Brad and Angelina reportedly stayed at Oberoi Rajvilas Hotel.

Actually he made more then that. He made about 17million for just starring in the movie and then get got his back end deal of the gross profits including DVD rentals. Pitt made over and still counting about 150 -175 million dollars for Smith.

That movie has grossed close to 500 million dollars worldwide and that’s just the boxoffice sales

Me not a beach person either. Give me a nice pool. Can’t stand sand in places that they should not be in.

Wow!

127 | CLINIQUA - I was just wondering. Thank you.

I think Shiloh was planned.
I don’t think they would have been together otherwise.
I am not saying that Brad has not love for Mad and Z but I just believe that Brad really wanted to ispread those amazing genes as well.
But that is ok because I still love these two.

I’m not saying this b/c it actually happened I’m just saying. (I chose to be ANON today)

I wrote to Miss O asking her why she has guest like JA on her show when she could be having guest like B/A, Madge, Meg Ryan, Jack H (the X-men guy), and others to talk about what’s going on in Africa and how adopting kids from third world countries has changed their lives. Maybe she got the email, read it and thought about it. I do know she knows how we regular people feel about JA being on her show.

Just saying

Sorry to keep harkening back to the horrid VF article, but you know what the worst part of that was - and one of the most mortifying for Brad I’m sure….when ol’ Leslie Bennetts seemingly broke the news to Maniston that the pics in W were licensed to him, and she told her that he’d make money off of them. Well, instead of Maniston coming to his defense, she just let that lie there, like she was making Brad out to be this mercenary selfish greedy guy. Bennetts said Maniston rolled her eyes at the ‘revelation’ like, you know, ‘it figures.’ She wanted to convey that Brad was like that - that’s when I believe she launched into her ’sensitivity chip,’ business. Bottomline, there’s nothing wrong with it - what kind of idiot says, yes please take pictures of me and Angelina Jolie, and keep them to do whatever you the magazine or photog want?? But of course to the avg joe reading the mag, it was a ‘gotcha’ moment - like Brad was ‘exposed’ as a greedy sob who didn’t care what anything looked like..blah blah blah. That was one of the worst parts, that and of course the awful things they said about Angie.

Brad was done with X after that.

think positive! @ 10/23/2006 at 5:02 pm

WOW! Jared please cool it! It’s hard to keep up! Thanks for putting up the tow Brad threads.It has been a while to see his beautiful face.His so YUMMY! I could eat him alive! I just can not wait to see Babel! My anticipation is getting bigger and bigger!

Maria-Your commets on te other thread were hillarious.You really should write a fanfic.

I seems calm here so far.Very pleasant! I hope it will remain that way.

BAMZS ROCKS! :)

I left a response about our AI discussion over at the other thread….wow, these are coming in fast today!

About Shiloh, Yeah I think she was semi-planned. I say “semi” because I don’t think Brad & Angie thought it would happen so fast. They probably decided they wanted to make a baby as part of their family, but as anyone who has ever adopted a child only to find it got their fertility hormones spiking all over the place will tell you…..there’s nothing like having a baby in the house to make a couple extra fertile, haha!! So, in a way, maybe little Miss Z had a part in Shiloh’s timely appearance as well! ;)!

118 | julia | - Thanks Julia for the link, I read that story in OK Magazine in the Supermarket on Friday :)

the only back end deal for brad was ocean’s 11 which he made approx 30M. for mr. and mrs. smith, i think he made 20M. that is from imdb.com. also look at forbes celebrities, you can kind of guess that he did not make more than 20 M on mr and mrs. smith

Now let me start off by saying that I have no clue whatsoever what Brad ultimately made with MMS. That being said, NEVER trust imdb.com for information. That board is more times wrong than it is right. LOL

137 | BCBG | What i read is that he has profit share from the DVDs sales and rentals. The DVD sales normally goes to the producers/actors only, and the studios no longer gets any share.

OT: Got from PH, sorry if this is already posted:

The Babydaddy Is A Liar???

This is getting out of control!!

The government of Malawi is calling the biological father of Madonna’s new baby boy a liar!

A senior Malawian government official on Monday dismissed as untrue remarks by an illiterate father who said he was misled into signing over his son for adoption by pop diva Madonna.
But his comments were categorically denied by Penson Kilembe, director of child welfare in the Ministry of Women and Child Development, who told Reuters the ministry explained every detail of the process to Banda and his family.

“We explained every detail and Madonna herself explained her intentions in the face of the judge and in Banda’s presence,” Kilembe said. “He (Banda) was asked several times in court if he understood what was going on and he said he did.”

Oprah must be cumming ten times that she gets to sit down with Madge this week! And Gayle is loving every ******!!

Observer2 @ 10/23/2006 at 5:21 pm

Don’t trust Forbes either. Brad signed on to MMS with his first ever 20 million or 20% of the gross whichever was more.

Brad is well over the 100 million dollar mark for MMS and counting.

As for the Ocean movies, he got 5 million up front and then a backend percentage deal. He’s made at least 40 million each off of both Ocean’s movies. Forbes lists Brad’s worth as 100 million when it’s well north of that.

That being said, NEVER trust imdb.com for information. That board is more times wrong than it is right. LOL

138 | Maniston

yeah, imdb has everybody listed as a vegetarian, including brad. and they NEVER update personal information in a timely manner.

Alexanderina @ 10/23/2006 at 5:23 pm

:lol: this is funny got it from PH:

Jennifer Aniston Comes To Broadway!

“Don’t be scared, though. She can’t hack a real show, so she’s doing one performance only”.

BBL guys. I’m going home.

137 | BCBG

Imdb is not reliable and actors who often have deals written in their contract to make sure they get a deal of the profits. How do you Tom Cruise became so rich? Brad is a smart businessman and obviously he knows what he is doing since his production company seems to be going from one successful movie to the next. Most likely he probably did have some kind of deal in his contract where he earned a certain percentage of the profit from MAMS. Considering the movie did $500 million dollars worth of business just at the movie theaters alone, it’s not far fetched to think that he earned about a quite a large sum amount of money from the profits. Let’s not even go into the profit from DVD sales, rentals, and selling ther rights to TV channels.

In other words, Maddox, Zahara, Shiloh and all future Jolie Pitt kiddos are set for life. ;)

FROM DEFAMER.COM (the comments are really funny, and yes, one invariably mentions Angelina - but in a good way…and check out what they say about what Oprah’s show is fast becoming…it is sooooo true! LOL):

Madonna Starting To Really Regret Not Having Chosen The Less Cute Orphan With No Living Parents
One day we will all be able to look back with a smile on the maelstrom of controversy that surrounded little David Banda, Malawi’s most adorable demi-orphan, and the strange, leather-bodiced witch-lady who swooped in suddenly to spirit him away. (Perhaps it will require the part-time children’s author adapting the entire series of unfortunate events into yet another whimsically illustrated bedtime story.) But as in all classic fairy tales, things tend to get darkest right before the “happily ever after” part, so it’s somewhat befitting that the child’s very much alive and increasingly media-friendly father has distressingly announced that he had never intended to give his son up permanently. From the NY Post:

“If we were told she wants to take the baby as her own, we would not have consented, because I see no reason why I should give up my son,” said Yohane Banda, father of the 13-month-old, David Banda.
“I am just now realizing the meaning of ‘adoption,’ ” said Banda, adding that he had expected Madonna to raise David for him but not keep him as her own. [...]
[H]e explained yesterday that at the time, he believed that “when David grows up, he will return back home to his village.”

And so our original speculation–that Madonna had misunderstood the meaning of the Malawian word for “adoption”–turned out to not be the case at all. Rather, it was the senior Banda who was unclear on the terminology, surprised to find that “adoption” in fact implied a permanent transfer of custody, as opposed to, say, being a blanket legal term which refers to “the lending of a child to chameleonlike pop superstar for length of adolescence, upon which they shall be returned with newly acquired knowledge of horse-jumping techniques and hot trends in Parisian techno.” Rest assured, however, that we have yet to hear the end of the story, as The Oprah Winfrey Show has announced an upcoming interview with Madonna–the go-to forum for anyone seeking a “let me explain to you how the **** has not hit the fan in quite the voluminous quantities as would initially have appeared”-style of high-profile damage control.

Not to date myself, but when Faith No More’s “Midlife Crisis” popped up on my playlist for the first time in ages, I couldn’t help but laugh about how a 15 year-old song poking fun at Madonna is still relevant.

A spoiler: At the end of the interview, Madonna will adopt Oprah. You heard it here first.

I just hope she gets her roots done. I can’t bear to see another photo of her coming out of the gym — she needs those workouts, it’s stressful abducting a child!!! — with black roots. I realize this makes me as shallow as she is.

I think Madonna needs a lesson from the saintly Angelina on how to, and how not to, adopt a child from Africa.

God…what a PR nightmare.

10/23/06 12:28 PM
Scout says:

This really is a PR disaster in so many ways.

Madonna has seemingly handled the entire adoption with such a casual attitude. From selecting a child after only a few days of visiting the country to ignoring an 18 month habitation law which would help her learn about this child’s history and culture.

She couldn’t even bother to hang around for a few days until the child was issued his passport. A “handler” delivered him to her in London.

Whether she is a genuinely caring mom to this child is unknown, but the public indications I have seen make me wonder…

ele é legal, e torce pro corinthians!!!

According to FORBES, Brad made an estimated of $25 million. Okey, this is what is written about BRAD on FORBES clebrity power list.

“For an actor who eschews the spotlight, Pitt couldn’t avoid it last year. His breakup with Jennifer Aniston and subsequent coupling with Angelina Jolie sent the tabloids into a veritable feeding frenzy. (His daughter by Jolie, named Shiloh, was born in May in Namibia.) But it was his share of the profits from the half-billion-dollar grossing “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” that lined his pockets. While fatherhood should no doubt keep him busy, Pitt plans to film “Ocean’s 13″ with pal George Clooney. ”

Earnings estimates are for June 2005 to June 2006. Figures rounded off where appropriate. Exact figures available on Forbes.com. Includes dollars earned solely from entertainment income. Management, agent and attorney fees have not been deducted. Estimates by forbes; sources include Billboard, Pollstar, Adams Media Research, Nielsen SoundScan and Nielsen BookScan. Rankings are generated by combining earnings with other metrics: Web mentions on Google press clips compiled by LexisNexis; TV/radio mentions by Factiva; and number of times a celebrity’s face appeared on the cover of 26 major consumer magazines.

Goodnight you lot and have fun! JJ keep ‘em coming pleeeeeeeeeezeeeee!!!!
