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.

When Jared posts something new about Brad or Angelina, everybody goes to the new thread and comments there. Sometimes Jared even “closes” the other “older” threads, to comments, but he didn’t do that today obviously, or we wouldn’t be “talking” here.
Anyway the new thread about Angie in New York is now invaded by bizarre moronic Chinocchio fans and it is no use trying to post there until Jared cleans house.
I’m sure BP is a Aalto fan, has he ever visited your beautiful country?
Now you haters are here leaving vile comments. I’m sure it’s probably the same person so sad and hateful who still long for that thing of the past. I really think Brad had stop loving his X a long, long, time ago. I don’t think he’s going back to her. Try living in reality and see he’s living with and loving his new family. Accept this and give up the hate.
Yeah , haters and jenChinniston , just go coke yourselves up, drink margaritas, bietch about everything under the sun, get dumped and bomb movies… leave us to enjoy BAMZS !!
Spend your time on something more constructive- we will like Angie & Brad and the kids against your constant efforts… anyway..shooo..
I HOPE M-MOm published that piece about X so everyone can laugh at her and write her of..nasty hag!!
And shitzy, stop posting as a fan and use hate words.. we know it’s you!!
On another note…what a beautifull and thoughtfull gift did Angie give Brad!!
I love that picture and the house looks amazing!
whattaluvly couple. very thoughtful of angelina to come up w/ a present like that. can’t get enough of this two!!! go bamzs!!!!

I think Mad calls Angie ‘Mamang or Mama” and “Pappa” to Brad.
In interview with Ellen in 2004, when Ellen asked how Mad call her, Angie said “Mamang” and it sounded like Frenchy to me.

You know that’s how me & my siblings oftentimes call our parents - its pretty common among Filipinos…
==== You and me both Malaya. I call my parents Mamang and Papang. But I do think the French term is Maman? not Mamang coz that would mean I was speaking French all this time and I didnt know it lol. So malaya and keana you were both UP alums? I’ve always believed BAMZS fans were intelligent :)
Ate Cha: Don’t know if you received my email. Answer to your query directed to malaya and myself on previous threads. Hope you and family doing ok with the terrible weather conditions out in Missouri.

Brad is boring…
Jen, is that you ?
There’s rumor that poor Jen was hanging with poor K-Fed. I hope its true. they are so compatible, non ? both was in the most vulnerable period, just dumped by their lovers, K-fed might be a trash, but he was so fertile with lotsa of sperm for the old and barren womb.

Very nice Jared! Thank you!
Angelina knows her man. She’s in love with all things William Bradley Pitt not just the star Brad Pitt. She listens when he speaks, she hears his heart’s desires and she takes on his dreams as he does with her. He’s finally found his other half and they fit perfectly together. More than likely Brad mentioned his desire to see “Falling Water” months ago…perhaps even last year. Angelina did what a mate completely in love does, she filed the information away for a special moment. No moment more special than a birthday. 2005’s birthday gift? His heart’s desire, a “baby”. 2006’s birthday gift? His heart’s passion. All things Architecture.
And that’s why she’s his lady. She holds his heart, she’s taken on his passions and she’s the keeper of his soul.
He doesn’t need a GGW DVD. He has the woman who created “Wild”. Hollywood’s original Wildchild!

WELL SAID. ITA
Mel Gibson’s “Apocalypto” was currently no.1 in the bosoffice follow by The Holiday.
Oh no one want to see Mel movie as the Gallup poll stated? Gallup poll suck !
the pic kinda looks photoshop-y
I don’t believe these two, even the giving of a birthday gift, instead of trying to keep it private, they have to turn it into a FULL scale photo-op.
I guess they have been out of the “news” for a couple of weeks. Had to generate something to get their mugs back on the celebrity sites.
a good read from radaronline
Celeb Press Calls Bullshit on ‘Poor Jen’
DOUBLE DUMPEE Aniston
For someone who claims her breakup is an invention of the tabloids, Jennifer Aniston hasn’t been trying very hard to prove them wrong. The former Friends star has been out and about lately, turning up at a Glamour magazine event in Los Angeles last week and performing in a charity theater festival in New York, but her failure to appear in the company of Vince Vaughn, or even in the same area code, has many convinced the relationship is being propped up for PR purposes.
According to one source with contacts in the Aniston camp, the actress’s handlers fear it would damage her market value to have her seen as a two-time dumpee. “Keeping this ‘relationship’ on the map is a face-saving maneuver,” says the source. “The ‘Poor Jen’ headlines are something she despises, and she’s desperate to avoid another round of it.”
A well-informed tabloid editor puts it more bluntly: “She doesn’t want to be seen as a loser.”
But while Aniston may be selling the happy-couple narrative, the entertainment press, having played along with too many of her past charades, isn’t buying. Us Weekly is leading the charge, with a running timer on its home page tracking, to the second, how long it’s been since Aniston and Vaughn were last seen together. Over the summer, Aniston pooh-poohed an Us report that she and Vaughn were engaged; Us retaliated with a list of all the times her rep, Stephen Huvane, had been caught lying on her behalf.
It would help Aniston’s credibility if she and Vaughn had ever bothered to confirm their couplehood before the reports of their split began to appear. Aniston’s Oct. 16 Oprah appearance, when she tepidly denied there had been a breakup, was her first public acknowledgement of the romance. “They would never talk about the relationship when they were actually having one,” says a skeptic. “Now that they’re not having a relationship, they’re going out of their way to talk about it. It’s perverse.”
Convincing the doubters may require extreme measures. Yesterday afternoon, as Aniston prepared to leave New York, one source told Radar she was believed to be headed for London, where Vaughn has been filming Fred Claus. Huvane declined to confirm or deny that, saying, “I don’t think Jennifer’s personal travel plans or wherabouts are anyone’s business but her own.”
But even a well-executed photo op would fail to persuade most professional celebrity watchers at this point. Says one, “Jennifer Aniston is sort of Clinton-esque in her choice of words. She parses them so that they’re technically accurate, but she’s a well-known liar.”

annoymous
I am super s****** bigtime. I have to show my beaver so I can be like them & have my 15 minutes of fame. I am so jealous of them. Maybe I should hang myself now. Can someone shot me in the head!!??
Yes I truly deserve to die. My hatred is consuming me & my brain cells.
But before I die I want to prostitute myself to any Dirty Old Man available so I can get the taste of it.
I think this was an awesome gift. It fit his tastes perfectly and isn’t that what a gift should do.
An open letter to Kevin & Stephen Huvane and Company:
Just so you know….
Guess who were the 1st people to notify the *right people* - re: the stolen Baby Shower pics
Guess where these people came from
Answer: right here at jj.com.

Just dont underestimate the folks on this site.
The news of Brad and Angie visiting Fallingwater, an architectural masterpiece cross overs not only through celebrity blogs but legitimate press like Forbes, MSNBC,
USA today, etc.. No wonder so many are green with envy.
Did JA seriously get BP a GGW video for a present? My jaw dropped at reading that… what the hell kind of gift is that?
Lovely photo of AJ and BP, I really hope they’ve found lasting happiness within each other!
I love BAMZS! This photo is a FAKE in the sense that it was not taken at Fallingwater. This picture of Brad and Angilina is REAL but it was taken somewhere else. They photoshopped the background into the picture. Fans like me have enjoyed THOUSANDS of photos that it’s hard to keep track of where the images were actually taken. The fact that these people also like to go to a million places do not help cuz we can’t keep track their exact itinerary.
So my point is, this photo was taken somewhere else not in Pittsburgh.
Arrangements for the visit began about a week before Thanksgiving, when staff at Fallingwater received a call from Ms. Jolie’s personal assistant in Asia. The assistant was reluctant to provide the names of the couple but relented when Ms. King assured her she would be discreet.
During their visit, the couple commented on the beauty of the winter landscape of the Laurel Highlands.
“They didn’t behave like celebrities,” Ms. Armstrong said. “They were just people coming to see great architecture and wanting to know more about it.”
“He’s so hard to buy for,” Ms. Jolie told her.
Shortly after the story hit the Post-Gazette’s Web site yesterday — where it quickly zoomed to the top of the most e-mailed stories list — e-mails began pouring in from readers convinced the photograph of the pair standing in front of Frank Lloyd Wright’s iconic house was a fake.
For the record, it isn’t.
“No way! I took that photo myself, and I am proud of it!” Ms. Armstrong said.
In the photograph but out of camera range, Ms. Jolie is wearing Ms. King’s shoes.
“We were going to [the] overlook to see that iconic view of Fallingwater, and she had the most elegant shoes on you could imagine,” Ms. King said. Realizing that wearing high heels on the rustic stone steps might not be the best idea, Ms. Jolie said she would wait in the car while Pitt went down for a look.
“I said, ‘What size shoes do you wear?’ and she said ‘9.’ I said I wear 9 and a half; you can wear mine.’ I thought that said a lot about her, that she would wear a stranger’s shoes. They were very humble and down to earth.”
Mr. Pitt’s latest movie, “Babel,” is now in theaters, and he’s recently been filming “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” in Louisiana.
Ms. Jolie, 31, has been filming “A Mighty Heart,” based on a memoir written by Mariane Pearl, the widow of slain journalist Daniel Pearl. She also appears in “The Good Shepherd,” due Dec. 22.
The couple have three children: Maddox, 5, Zahara, 2, and 7-month-old Shiloh.
After the tour, a chauffeur-driven Rolls-Royce took the couple back to the Latrobe Airport.
CLINIQUA, you are too funny. This is so true. Brad and Tom says F.U. to Oprah.
Oprah has been dissed twice. lol She sided with Maniston and had her on her show 2 times. She never knew Brads story on the divorce. Now when everyone sees that this is the real thing with Angie and Brad , and Their LOVE IS SOLID , Oprah wants to be friends now. Mainston mad a fool of her. Maniston is a fraud. Having Brad and Angelina would be the BIGGEST INTERVIEW EVER for Oprah and she knows she blew it. That would be her highest ratings EVER!. Brad and Angie is THE HOLLYWOOD POWER COUPLE. I’m glad Tomcat snubbed her. She was jealous at first of Angelina because of her humanitarian causes and her love for Africa. Ophar only wanted the spotlight on Africa with BONO. Angie was a threat.
Angelina does not kiss ass or suck up. She and Brad does not need Oprah. haha
Brad is so in love with Brad.
ANGELINA THANK YOU!!!
YOU SAVE CHILDREN FROM POOR COUNTRIES!
YOU SAVE THEM FROM SUFFERINGS!!!!!
WHEN YOUR CHILDREN WILL BE OLD-THEY WILL ALWAYS BE GRATEFUL TO YOU!
BECAUSE YOU SAVE THEIR SOULS!
YOU ARE ANGEL ON THE EARTH!!!
IF AFTERLIFE EXIST-YOU WILL BE ON THRONE!!! I WISH IT TO YOU!
