Brad Pitt Back to Being Benji Button
Brad Pitt is back filming The Case of Benjamin Button! He was spotted earlier today on the streets of New Orleans filming scenes in a nearly unrecognizable costume. Is that really him? Why yes, yes it is.
Pictured in this entry: Some old pictures of Brad Pitt in L.A. late last month supposedly “waiting patiently at his office for a look at some artwork painted by one of his friends.” Hawt.

Hi, Isabelle II. I’m doing good, girl, and you?
I think that these people are attacking Angie because she has always been the easier target … people always can bring up the past and the perception that she is the bad girl to Jennifer’s good girl … and is perceived to be Brad’s weakness (or Achilles heel). Since they are so attached at the hip, they figure try to muddy her and ruin Brad in the process.
Article from when Angelina Adopted Zahara
When Jolie arrived back in the U.S. from her last adoption trip, the cameras started clicking again. She and little Zahara graced the covers of numerous magazines, and the public took note.
“I remember being at the store and seeing Angelina on the cover of, I think it was People magazine,” said Ann-Charles Watt, “and I said, ‘Oh my gosh! We can do this.’ ”
Watt and her husband, Jason Hillard, residents of Athens, Ohio, wanted to adopt a child. When they saw Jolie on that magazine cover with her adopted daughter, their decision to raise a child from Ethiopia was clear.
“In the grand scheme of things, she changed our lives,” Watt said. “It’s kind of hilarious to think of, but yeah, Angelina Jolie probably brought us an African child.”
Americans have been adopting from around the globe for many years. The highest adoption numbers in 2004 came from China, Russia and Guatemala. Ethiopia’s number is much lower. Some say it’s because of lack of awareness.
But that seems to be changing. Since Jolie adopted Zahara, international adoption agencies in the United States say inquiries about Ethiopian babies have doubled.
“Anyone similar to Ms. Jolie in celebrity status does bring increased media attention, and does increase interest for other parents to come forward and help these children,” said Mraz.

l’m fine, briseis, except for the fact that l woke up at 3am and couldn’t go back to sleep, l may as well stay here posting till l have to go to work.
l don’t think these rumors will hurt his chances, politics or not, the people giving out the awards are also in show biz and can recognize a smear campaign when they see one. the Jolie-Pitts have had a wonderful year, the only scandals have been drummed up by their enemies. Actions speak louder than words

ITA - with both of you!!
The premiere of the TGS spotlighted the Pitts in a very positive way.That was about 3 weeks ago. Now,there’s something negative everywhere about them. And there’s something odd at Dlisted. Bottom of the report about Marilyn’s friendship with AJ-blind item Page Six- Dlisted’s commented . “thanks jen”. How pathetic…
ENVY with a big E!!
The Pitts are enjoying the best times of their lives. Family, adventures and career esp. Brad. Brad is having it ALL.
Hope all the votes for GG are tallied/done , just a few more days till Monday.
This smear campaign is worse than political elections I must say.

“…He could just say that his life before Angie was miserable or something and he loves her and his family in big interview for everybody can see/hear….”

The real question is can we get Lazy a brain.
Jennifer Aniston is free-basing coke, shoot crystal meth, and ******** Norman
Don’t worry about Angelina. The people who have worked with Angelina at the UN or adoption agencies know her and love her. Stop giving Page Six or the NY Post more power than they deserve. If Angelina feels she needs to speak up she will.

UNHCR web site is just at your fingertips. Don’t be lazy. It will take you less time than the 7 pages you went through . Oh, and you’ll learn more from them than the tabs. you read.
What’s Page Six agenda against Angelina? First they run this blind item alluding Angie and now this article and their headline is misleading. They only named one parent and yet its seems a lot them complained. And why they Angie if that Agency was corrupt or malpracticed. Now it becomes her fault that they there were malpractices, when in fact Angie was also a victim.
Now im wondering, with the onslaught of so many negative news about them, is there a conspiracy theory so that Brad will not win in GG and not nominated in Oscar. And who is behind this conspiracy?
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
I really would like to know what’s the deal with Page six, first the blind item and now this! I know angelina doesn’t give a **** of what people say of her, but usually when it’s about adoption she answers (like the Madonna case) will see if she says something this time, I think it’s time to be a little more agressive with their PR strategy. This week has been insane too much crap.
This is for the Dailynews.
Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie, Nicole Kidman, Catherine Keener and Dermot Mulroney turned out Monday night for Christopher Dillon Quinn’s “God Grew Tired of Us,” a documentary about three men growing up against the backdrop of the Sudanese genocide. Kidman narrated the film, while Pitt, Keener and Mulroney helped produce. Quinn told us, “I worried if there was a double-edged sword, and I wondered, ‘Oh no, will The Village Voice like my film because I have these people in it?’ The truth is that nobody would help me with my film except for these guys.”
Meanwhile, Jolie ended her red-carpet interviews after telling a waiting reporter for “Inside Edition”: “I’m sorry, I don’t support that.” We assume she doesn’t mean the UN, charity or adoption …
You look at a child and see a sex toy? Jared you need to ban these sick pedophile ********.

=========================
briseis, that is so true, I am actuallly so sick of that mag. I live here in Australia by the way. I just wonder what their resources are. It is probably NY Posts or National ledger. They got nothing positive to say about Brad and Angie. They so love J. Aniston. There’s only two mags I love which is the New Idea and WHO Magazine, they have more positive and credible news about this family I admire. There’s not much news about them here, so I surf mostly thru the internet to have a doze of news about them. I love this site, I am so lucky to find it, I enjoy reading your posts and learn more about this family through your comments and the links you provide.
So, I wanna say my big THANKS to all of You
Okay it looks like the haters are her early today. Just contactl Jared so they can be deleted. Continue to talk about the good things that Angelina has done. There great articles out there go find them. Even many about how Angelina has helped with adoptions. I don’t have time now but later I will find and post. Please lets not live in this world that the haters want to create.

Hi, welcome to JustJared. Always glad to welcome “newbies” into our lovely and fantastic blog. We have a few Aussies here, foremost of which is Cycloneblondie, but I haven’t seen CB post in a while, she must be really busy.
It’s funny that you say that these mags love Jennifer Aniston, but TBU (which she even promoted in Oz) did not make as much money over there as they had hoped.
Hi ISABELLE II,
Sorry I was out for shopping grocery. I couldn’t catch you up. It’s very warm and sunny in Nice, France.
Sleepless? What’s in you mind? I read somewhere that if you sleep 20 minutes, every 4 hours, you don’t need to sleep for long hours.
When my daughter was a baby, I experience it, not bad but you’re dead at the end.
Anyway, how are you?
l don’t think jared should be called upon to delete posts from non-fans, lord knows some of us were all over x’s thread yesterday! l do think, however that once people start talking about Angelina raising children just to have sex with them, then yes, l agree he should control this or this will turn into PH
I can’t believe that some of you like to go to the details of Angie’s sex life when she was not with any man steady.
My goodness, I never imagined myself speaking nonsense but here I go:
Your values must be very different, were you virgin when you married your husband or are you still virgin?
Do not get me wrong, I do respect each person’s choice but you can not insult anyone because she does not think and feel like you.
Angie has not cheated men in her life. But all of a sudden, I remember someone who slept on her first date with her blind date and she happened not to break up with her boyfriend at the same time.
Or is it better to have sex with your co-star in the dressing room?
Angie was free woman, she did whatever was right for her.

no worries, l’m sleepless b’cuz l crashed out at 9pm [ 11:00?] last night so when l woke up at 3am l just wasn’t tired anymore. The old thread was so crazy last night that l just gave up and went to bed to watch TV and l fell asleep. the negativity and fuss over the rubbish that’s been written about Angie just got me in a bad mood so instead of writing bad things myself, l left.
I think that Angie said that Shiloh was not planned just to shut up some idiots who kept on screaming that she got pregnant before the divorce was finalised and some marons who believe that Brad was trapped by Angie’s pregnancy.
If you read between the lines, you can see clearly that it was Brad who was dying to have her pregnant.
Is he really getting younger? He looks so HOT!

Lazy,
am also plagued by similar questions, is there a provision where the kids can be taken away, atleast those who are adopted. I am worried she may have an affair with Maddox or Zaharawhen they are older. Since she adopted Maddox, I always thought that was her intention, to raise herself a sex toy, you remember the Asian gal she had an affair with.
Iam not comfortable with her raising any child apart from her own blob who will most probably turn out sick and perverted like her even if she was raised elsewhere. Some genes can be strong.

You are a perfect example of why stupid people should not breed!
Only a pedophile would think like you do!
Had to get up early for a meeting, and thought I’d pop into JJ before hitting the highway..
We have to remember the quote that Angelina said about not caring what the tabs print, as long as it helps our wait at the grocery store. If I had more time, I would find it.
B&A’s love for each other has allowed them to grow in ways they couldn’t with other people. Hard for some to let go of ancient history, but if they are holding onto it, they must be gaining from it in some way.
It is odd that Angelina gets the brunt of the blame. I don’t understand it, because if you are a fan of Brad Pitt, wouldn’t you believe that the man knows what is best for him in his personal life? He met Angelina and fell in love (and I won’t touch the timeline theory). Can not people think that he knows what is best for him in his life???? Obviously he knows Angelina better than anyone else, and he fell in love with her. Why is that so hard for some people to grasp?
Errrrrrrr
Women always blame the other woman never the man. The media knows that so of course the media is going to feed that need by blaming Angelina. This is no different than what you see on Jerry Springer. Except that Angelina and Brad aren’t playing the game.

****
Angie DID NOT say that Shiloh was NOT planned. When they asked her about Brad being changed by their romance, Angie answered that SHE HAD changed, him not so much. Like, she had not previously been planning on having biological children, but after getting together with Brad she did.
From there some tabloids got the idea the pregnancy was not planned, which is not only a deliberate misread, but also stupid. In this day and age???
OMG AMAYA! That was SOOOO wonderful! did last night’s speech inspire you? I LOVED Billy’s comment on Anne and the little details like George’s details…too funny and true to life. Thank you my friend. I will be grinning like an idiot all day remembering - and with this cold, I’m REALLY going to look odd! :lol:
