OlderAngie’s Secret Birthday Gift to Brad
THAT. IS. TOO. CUTE!!!!!!!!!!!! Thanks to everybody who sent this in!!
Brad Pitt turns 43 in ten days, Dec. 18 and Angelina Jolie had a secret birthday gift ready for him yesterday afternoon in Ohiopyle, (Bear Run), Pennsylvania. The gift involved Fallingwater, one of architect Frank Lloyd Wright’s works, which was designed in 1936 for the family of Pittsburgh department store owner Edgar J. Kaufmann. (Fallingwater is the building behind Brad and Angelina.) Read all about it after the jump!!
The Pittsburgh Channel has the story:
Brangelina In Town For Pitt’s Secret Birthday Present
The workers at Frank Lloyd Wright’s Fallingwater got quite a surprise Thursday afternoon when Brad Pitt and Angelia Jolie showed up for a tour of the estate.
According to a spokesman for Fallingwater, Pitt and Jolie arrived just before 3 p.m. for the tour, Jolie’s gift to Pitt for his birthday.
“Brad said he had wanted to experience Fallingwater ever since he took an architectural history course in college,” Fallingwater’s curator of education Cara Armstrong said. “He and I talked quite a bit about design and art. He was incredibly well-informed about architecture.”
The couple took a two-hour private focused tour, led by Armstrong, who described the couple as “very gracious and very engaged in the house.”
“Brad said he had a visual sense of Fallingwater but experiencing it in person, hearing the sound of the waterfall cascading under the house and smelling the wood from the fireplace was better than anything he could have imagined,” Armstrong said.
After the tour, Jolie had arranged to have champagne and caviar sent in, which the couple shared in a private birthday celebration in Fallingwater’s living room. Afterward, they invited the staff to join them and encouraged them to take the “snacks” home.
Arrangements for the visit began about a week before Thanksgiving when staff at Fallingwater received a call from Jolie’s personal assistant in Asia.

Ok, on the other subject, I thought I was the only one who heard him call Brad “her husband.” So cute. I also loved the tour guide. She was so happy to have another “architecture geek” to talk to. I wouldn’t be surprised if they kept in touch with her.

Hiya jpf, I watched the video and thought it was cute as well, when the reporter said “her husband” I was like awwwwwwww :)
OMG. The co-ed thing is getting LEGIT news coverage from her hometown newspaper (San Antonio Express) — wow….Maniston must be humiliated and mortified for REAL.
See, that’s what the phony media leech gets…she should have let Janice Min say she and VV were done a couple months ago, instead of being worried over what she would look like…because now this whole thing w/ the co-ed is really mortifying, and probably true…and she looks..just like a two time loser…the very thing she tried not to look like when Vaughn was caught smootching the director of his play on the cheek (which actually probably was innocent). Now he’s chasing college ho’s…and Man is left holding the bag. Bet you any money, that she loathes Vince now and has a new grudge she’s carrying around for him. LOL
Read on….
Report: San Antonio student reason for Aniston, Vaughn breakup

A regrettable email sent to friends has landed a Trinity University junior at the center of a worldwide celebrity scandal. The email was reportedly sent by 20-year-old junior Laura Mallory Lane to 22 of her Gamma sorority sisters. It carried the subject line: “I shacked with Vince Vaughn” and bragged of her one-night stand with the “Wedding Crashers” star in a Budapest hotel room.
The email soon found its way to the offices of the tabloid weekly The Star and, from there, to the world at large via the Internet. The reverberations from the scandal are believed to be the straw that broke the relationship between Vaughn and former “Friends” star Jennifer Aniston.
But that’s nothing compared to the media firestorm that has swirled around the Allentown, Pa., native since the news broke on the Star Web site Thursday with a tease about the full story in the magazine that goes on sale Monday.
Ironically, Vaughn and Aniston recently starred in a film titled “The Break-Up.” Now it appears that Lane could have been the cause of the lovers’ real-life split that was officially announced Tuesday.
Although emails to Lane were unanswered, Char Miller, a pop culture aficionado who teaches history and urban studies at Trinity, empathizes with what he says she’s likely going through.
“Events like this have a way of overrunning the capacity of most human beings. It is sudden, immediate and overwhelming attention on what was a private, consensual, small moment. That would be hard for anybody to deal with,” Miller said.
Susie Gonzalez, spokesperson for Trinity reported Thursday “All I can do is confirm that she is a student. Because of very strict privacy laws we cannot release any other information, not her hometown, not her age, nothing else,” she said about Lane. Other sources (who refused to be identified) said Lane is enrolled in the study-abroad program and that the university had received calls from national magazines inquiring about Lane.
An actress, Lane won Alamo Theatre Arts Council Globe Award in 2006 for her performance in “The Triumph of Love.”
She is described by one of her Gamma sisters (who did not want to be identified) as “a great person…..” The student said she was upset that the story “has turned into way too much.”
Another student said her friend is “really friendly, really nice. She’s awesome.”
According to the Star, Lane was on holiday in Budapest when she met the “Swingers” star (who made the trip there from London where he had been filming the comedy “Fred Claus.”)
The Star reproduced part of Lane’s email: “….. the next thing I know it was me and Vince Vaughn alone in the hotel room. For a while we just had a drink and talked some more (and yes, we talked about Jen) and one thing led to another and obviously we were messing around before too long. We didn’t have sex, but it was just as good. Afterward we just laid in his gigantic beautiful bed with satin sheets, smoking cigarettes [sic] and talking about life. He had a gorgeous view of the river and Buda Castle from his window, and we watched the sunrise. I felt like I was in a movie. We didn’t ever go to sleep and in the morning he walked me out and kissed me goodbye in front of everyone and was so sweet.”
Additionally, The Star reported that in Lane’s personal blog she originally bragged that she had gotten “to meet and hang out” with Vaughn but that two days later, the mention was deleted. (As of Thursday, her blog was not available.)
According to the Star, Lane and two girlfriends, along with Vaughn and his two friends, had cocktails at a Budapest restaurant. When the bar closed, the group returned to Vaughn’s hotel.
“We felt so comfortable with them at this point. [Vince] was super nice and so funny,” Lane’s email read. She also mentioned that Vaughn “even suggested playing the sexy word game ‘I Never….. ‘ and so there we are, getting all his dirty secrets out of him!”
The story reveals that Vaughn asked Lane to “stay for another drink — which she did.”
According to an Us magazine story that goes on sale today, Friday Vaughn was reportedly spotted talking to a “mystery blonde” the next morning at his hotel and receiving a kiss from her on the cheek.
The fallout is now part of celebrity pop culture history.
“My daughter in New York called me about the story. ‘What’s going on?’ she wanted to know,” Miller said.
“It’s the buzz of the campus, what everyone is talking about” including faculty, he said, adding that news involving celebrities is fascinating to the others because “it confirms our less-than-stellar lives.” He emphasizes his point by referring to the recent news of actress Eva Longoria’s five-carat, 248-diamond ring given to her by Spurs guard Tony Parker.
“That piece of news is almost as valuable as the rock on her hand,” Miller says.
But come Monday, when Star magazine hits newsstands, Eva’s ring will be old news, eclipsed by the latest celebrity scandal.

I wouldn’t be surprised if Tucker really is afraid of women lol The Blerds are wonderful :) Of course GC is the eye candy. Yeah, I see teen KO only being flustered when it comes to women. And at one point in his life he actually was friends with Laura Ingraham but she went nuts lol So, that understandably affects a friendship. Yes…those long bony-a$$ legs of Mr. Mann :lol: Thank you hun!

I have to say this is a truely sweet picture! They look so happy and down to earth, nothing fake with this couple at all. I am not a major fan but anyone would have to admit, this is an inspiring and lovely picture of them.
When they arrived, the couple took a two-hour focus tour led by Armstrong who described the couple as “very gracious and very engaged in the house. As we say in the midwest, you could tell their mothers raised them right.”
——————-
You got that right! Love that quote…that says more about Brad and Angelina than anything. :-)
OH MY GOD!!! I”M SO IN LOVE!!!! Yes, I’m totally, helplessly in love with these two. I want to eat them up with a big spoon. No, forget about the spoon, I’m going to dive right in.
Millions of thank yous to Jared and Audrey.
Going back to drooling and slurping all over this FANTASTIC photo!

It’s at the very end of the show. Angelina said that by other people’s standards she had everything but she was not happy
Thanks Jared for the article & Pic. Yo’re simply great. Could it be the haters here are paid people of Huvane & Jen’s circle of friends? We all know these losers are going to all blogs & spewing the same hatred. think about it…They come here all at the same time & ranting the same name-calling & disappear. And off them go to another blog. Just ignore those losers. I myself expecting the attacks since the Vaughniston break-up. I am sure they are all getting beserk since the so-called America’s Sweetheart are dumped twice by a Gorgoeous guy & a fugly guy. That’s sad!
So much to read. Jared you are so awesome. I always love your BAMZS threads unlike the other blogs where it is full of hate & nastiness. Keep up the good work. Love BAZMS …

Im tired of MK making cracks about shiloh and this family.. he does seem to like maddox but.. what with all the talk of shiloh being the messiah and how she must be too good to get her feet dirty and that is why they dont have her with them.
she is 6 months old.. why would she have her feet on the ground anyway if she cant walk?
Let the Jen lovers come here and hate on BAMZS…let us be in a holiday mood and forgive them of their sins. We should pity them because that’s all they know is to strike out at those they attain to become and never will.
Because like attacts like and if your IDOL only show immaturity, low class, pity parties, whinning and excuses all the time you will only duplicate that bad behavior. So forgive them and pity them for the hell that they are in…Faniston for life is so sad and delusional.
BAMZS fans has been so very bless so much this year, that we can be a little understanding of people’s insecurites and self hatred. After all faniston’s hard work getting JA and VV on the People choice awards as best power couple, how patheticly short sighted of them to break-up and leave only a very, very happy Brad, Angie, Maddox, Zahara and Shiloh to see everywhere.
Let us remember their sorrow and pain in the dissolution of Vaughniston and how fanistons had to bear under all the laughter and jokes saying that Vaugh would rather go to Budepest and hook-up with a 22 year old college woman more fugly then Aniston old ass then to be with her.
Like it been said before men luv them some young ums…young breast, young lips, young booty…..young loving. Sloppy second Vince just wanted to relax and not do any yoga with someone who just wanted to be with him.
It just another reminder that TV girl is heading back where she belong…”Dancing with the stars” on tv.
So much posts to read. I am admiring this family more & more. I care less about the dumped woman. Hope she just go away…can’t stand her. Keep up the good work Jared & Audrey. Both of you are awesome!!
This obsession over Shiloh is so abnormal from people. It’s freak’n cold as a witch’s teet in NYC. You don’t bring a 6mos old baby out at night in that. Scr*w all these people foaming at the mouth and wetting their pants over that little baby.
Dammit…..It must be suck to be a faniston. No wonder they are losing their marbles & anti-psycholtic medications are not working. Guess they need a higher dosage from now on. LOL.
B12…They are just haters & Anuston HAGgies (fans) trying to find fault in every move they do. they will always find something to complain about this family. All I can say…they can all shove it in the anal-cavity & enjoy it. I don’t mind being rude but if my rudeness is for fanistons, I have no regrets & no remorse!
Sometimes Lisa Kudrow, Courteney Cox and myself compare the cellulite on our thighs and butt. We’re not that different from other girls. Women are obsessed about their hips; mine are really wide, as if they were made for having children. The day I become pregnant the baby will have all the room it wants inside of me
