Brad Pitt’s Exclusive Interview on the Bodyguard Controversy
Brad Pitt gave an exclusive interview to NDTV (New Delhi Television Limited) late last week, speaking out against the the bodyguard controversy. Brad was interviewed by NDTV’s Managing Editor Barkha Dutt and sat alongside Indian theater and film actor, Irfan Khan. Watch the first 8 minutes below! Part II after the jump… Thanks, Alexanderina!!
Here’s an excerpt of what Brad had to say: “This is not what Angelina [Jolie] and I wanted. This contradicts the message of the film we are trying to make. Angelina and I have a multi-racial family, we want them to respect and understand different religions. Maybe we should have explained our intentions when we first got here. We would not hire anyone who is racist or who would hurt or push a child.”
UPDATE :: Part III added after the jump!

What kind of fool are you to think we’d do anything you say? The common variety one or the delusional one? I vote for delusional one.
Renee, why should it be on Jared and Audrey? I’ve been able to ignore the idiots why is it so hard for everyone else? Some self restraint may not get rid of them, but at least they won’t have the satisfaction of messing with peoples heads and controlling the show. Alot of us just stay lurkers not cause of the haters, but because the fighting breaking out that comes from letting them run the show.
GET OFF PEOPLE, GET OFF…AND U PUBLIC SPEAKER…GO BACK TO STUTTERING
BABY CUZ U AINT MAKING A POINT ON HERE BECAUSE THESE PEOPLE DO NOT LISTEN TO ANYTHING
Where did Lainey get the notion that Angelina was not pregnant because her chest was flat? Sheesh, if that chest is flat, then mine is nonexistent!!!
Is someone talking to me? I swear all I hear is WAH WAH WAH….WAH WAH WAH….WAH WAH WAH….WAH WAH WAH….WAH WAH WAH….WAH WAH WAH….WAH WAH WAH….WAH WAH WAH….WAH WAH WAH….WAH WAH WAH….WAH WAH WAH….
briesis, you’re right. It is much like someone screaming at the ocean.
I’ve made my point, with all of my ranting raving, you’ve focused on me and not on eachother. The public speaker even disagreed with one of you but did it in a cool way, she didn’t cuss or make stupid comments. Now only if all of you would do that. Truly, if you’re on here all day long, that’s sad and I feel bad for ya.
Brad Pitt wouldn’t want u wasting ur time here, doing all of this.
U people make comments to eachother, making fun of who reads Life and Style and People and all of those other mags, but this is the same thing.
God, if you’re on here less than twice a week, cool. If you’re on here everyday,
that’s sad. I’m not obsessed with you guys, just wisen up. This isn’t life.
You waste your lives away and for what, being on here? God, that’s sad. You’re going to be on your death bed, and then realize that you did all of this for not. You argued and called people names that you didn’t even know, just because they didn’t agree with you. You label them as haters, and these so called haters call you JA haters in return. I’ve read all of your posts, and it’s true, I’m writing a thesis about Celebrity as it relates to society and I find this sad. Yes you have every right to be here, that’s great, that’s the American way but I though JFK said “ask not what your country can do for you but what you can do for your country” and the thing that you do for the US is defend Brad Pitt, a multi-millionaire star?
What a waste of time…while he’s out there helping people out, you’re here trashing other people. Do you think that’s what he wants. I mean Jolie is a good will amabassador and the way you treat one another on here is good will? You can’t even have a descent argument. I’m a hypocrite? What do you think Brad Pitt would call you fans? I’d bet he’d only look down on you, and isn’t that what you care about, how he feels and no one else. By the way, this is all gossip too, all of it, this web-site, so how can u justify this compared to anything else. Get a life some of you, enjoy it, it flies by in a second.
I saw the Clooney interview-clip a few weeks ago @ a news-site, I’ll get back with the link as soon (and IF hopefully) I find it. He commented on the tabloids stating that Angelina and/or Brad “ran over” a cyclist and/or local (innocent) people (of course it’s sensational news insinuatiing that she/he herself was behind the staring wheel). Anyhoo George then said sth like “sometimes u hire the wrong people”. If somebody else has the link, feel free to post it!
Get a life- you never answered my question, what school are you going to . Plus you can’t read I said I had two sons is college, what is your major and if you are studying personality disorders. I strongly suggest you do a SELF STUDY… Poor dear. I proved my self I worked hard raised my kids WHAT have you done. I feel sorry for your parents dear. You have along way to go before you become an adult. Poor child, don’t bother responding. I am going to the other thread before I cook….
It is a good thing Just Jared put up a new thread. This one went to the dogs quickly. People really need to get a life and move on. The only thing CAPS idiot is doing is showing how stupid and pathetic he/she is. Get a life indeed.
You can tell when someone is doing something right and good, the naysayers and critics come out foaming at the mouth and try to spam the board. Keep on striving BP. Best wishes to BAMZS and safe travel.
Ha, that GET A LIFE person had all the BPfans in an uproar. Kinda funny.
Guli,
you are not going to another post, please do not lie. By the way, I never cursed at you but you did so immediately to me. I’m sorry, call your sons immediately, they need it after all of the emotional abuse you were so quick to give them as children.
I have made my point Says:
You haven’t made jack sh** point here. Just for you edification. This is a blog. This is not the White House, this is not the World Summit. People come here to give their opinions. Period. The End. Yes, even YOU are allowed to come here and give your psycho, delusional opinions. If you want to go to every freaking blog on the planet to tell them to get a life then that is your choice. Good luck with that. I’m sure you’ll be kept busy for the rest of your life. But hey, everyone has to have a purpose in life. We come here because we are fans of Brad and Angelina. And YES, you are a hypocrite, you don’t know anyone here enough to make judgements on their life. No one does. Don’t spout false patriotism to me. Why shouldn’t we be allowed to state our opinions? Why do you want to shut us up? Is it because you perceive that we are strong minded, intelligent and will not fall for all the false media spin that’s out there in general? Everyone is entitled to make their own choices in life. I’m sorry you are not my GOD.

For someone that wants people to get alife you yourself sure don’t have one judging from all the posts. Wow! lol
Luv Me Some Brad…J/K Says:
LOL! Seeing as your the only one talking I’ll assume your get alife just with a dif. name.
Iam from India and a huge fan of the BAMZS. Brad is, was and will always be my object of fantasy :) I thought he did a gr8 job with the interview and has atleast tried to clear the misconceptions surrounding the incidence. But, coming from India, i have to tell ya’ll that it’s very hard to convince Indian people especially when the issue is so sensitive. 80% of the population are illiterates and ignorants. They’ll jump at anything that is related to religion. Both hindus and muslims. Religion is such a f****d up issue in India. I should say that India is the most racist of all the countries. The “upper caste” people treat the lower class ones like BS. Anyways, my point is Brad did all he could to come clear but iam not sure if Indian people bought it, unless he bribed the entire nation into believeing him. LMAO. Really majority of Indian people are CORRUPT!! Especially the police. They suck, big time!!!
Irfan khan is a very talented guy. He’s very smart too. And NO, he did’nt say Brad “Pint”. So pls stop ridiculing him. Iam so proud of him that he stood by Brad and Angie. Iam sure he must be getting threats from the muslim population already. You must understand that he has literally risked his life in supporting the Jolie-pitts. So he’s definitely a HERO.
BAMZS RULES!!!

Okay. Can I have your glamorous life instead?
I am so happy that I get to see the video. Thank you for putting it up.
Some people said Brad is not an eloquent speaker. To me, I look at the reasons of his interview and determine if he has achieved his purpose . I look at the bottom line. Therefore I dont care whether he is a good speaker or whether some of you said he stuttered.
I conclude that he executed beautifully on what he wanted to accomplish. He got the message across. As a producer he is the right person to step up and speak for everybody. I am totally convinced and I’m sure many of you who watched the video agree with me.

I went back and read your post. I understood what you said. Your message is clear. Dont let Desert Chick intimidate you. I’ve seen this person posted in the past. She just kept changing names from Jen to Janet to Vanessa to Desert Chick. She likes to put people down. She harps on the same thing over and over again. She employed the same tactic, talking about spelling error, no life etc. Please dont let her style bother you. Please continue to post.

Thanks Lucky. I enjoyed reading your posts. It is good to get a perspective on what is going on in India regarding this incident. It was a terrible misunderstanding and the only thing BP could do was to present their side of the story.
I have made my point –
so it should be less than twice a week according to you, then how many hours can i stay? can you go back and ask your idol jennifer aniston about how many hours. and how many minutes. what about weekend? oh, and how long should the post be. and does this apply to the jen fans?

THANK YOU BCBG!!!! ITA and Gupta and asarangena, please keep on posting. Very soon we will have the abuse button back so don’t give up we love meeting new folks and if sometimes we seem to only to talk to each other, ignore that too. See, we don’t want to ignore new folks, we love and take pride in the fact we are a multi cultural/race/religion fans of BAMZS from all over the world. All I can say is we have known each other for almost two years, we have shared pics, personal stories (Dragonfly don’t say a word) :lol: and most of all personal tragedies… So , this really is not similar to any blog you go to; this is not about just BAMZS it is about folks after work who chose to have fun at JJ’s with people they know as opposed to watching TV….
Thanks Jared. Brad got his point across and that is all that matters. The fact that this group at Justjared has been together so long and that new people are joining all the time is the reason IMO that haters come. JEALOUSY.
Bless BAMZS
Thanx bdj :). Anything to make sure Brad and Angie’s image remain untainted :)
Iam not sure if the indian population agrees with me. Iam just sad that this and many other such minor incidents would have left Brad and Angie not wanting to visit India anymore. If they do visit again, then they are probably two of the most open-minded people world has ever seen. I dont blame them if they’ve got nothing to do with India anymore :(. India is still so backward that it’s people does’nt have the dignity to treat foreigners with respect. Let alone foreigners, they dont treat their own people with respect. It’s very sad. Lot of it stems from illiteracy and over-population which results in poverty and un-civilized conditions. I can keep on going about it for pages together…. This is just India and this is how things work here. I wish BP and AJ were more prepared for all this. They should’ve done their homework before deciding to pack their bags. Anyways, iam glad they are returning home safe and sound. That’s all that matters. Good luck to bamzs. Long live their fans!!!!! :)

Anyhoo George then said sth like “sometimes u hire the wrong people”. If somebody else has the link, feel free to post it!
If he really said that, then he really is a hollywood friend, USER friendly.
Oh for those who keep saying Brad is not an eloquent speaker, jeez, lighten up he’s not a politician or what. But he’s man enough to be responsible and get his message across. I’d rather have him than anybody who speaks with full of rhetoric.
Thank you for all of those invovled in getting the video uploaded. Makes me respect Brad more than I did before. He handled himself very well and I love the way he refers to his family with such a confidence, that you know he is a very content man at this point in his life.
Hope they are heading to a restful vacation spot away from the unrelenting papz….
To the fans of BAMSZ - thanks for providing the support you do….it’s great to read your thoughts….
Peace and out !
