Brad & Angelina to do the Cannes Cannes

Brad & Angelina to do the Cannes Cannes

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are set to open the Cannes Film Festival on May 16 in France with A Mighty Heart, produced by Pitt’s company, Plan B.

“The story unfolds like a mystery,” said Jolie, who plays Mariane Pearl, the widow of slain Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl. “You’ve got people collecting clues and trying to solve what happened. But it’s also very real and personal. We didn’t want it to be too melodramatic or too polished. We didn’t want it to be a typical movie.”

Says co-star Dan Futterman (pictured), “It would usually take about five minutes before people would figure out that it was Angelina. So we ended up shooting a lot of the exterior stuff in five-minute increments.”

She looks so different with her hair curly like that. But still beautiful, and I love the dress. I saw a piece about Angie on E!, don’t know if it’s the same one piper with a low was talking about but this one was actually decent. I stand by what I said earlier, E! is playing nice guy to all the other bad tabs in hopes of scoring brownie points with Brad and Angie.

Jared, you got the information wrong. My Blueberry Night is opening the Cannes Film Festival on May 16, not A Mighty Heart. A Mighty Heart is scheduled to premiere on May 21.

Fug, thanks for reminding me . Happy bday Suri. I need to ltry to like your parents, I am trying, it will take some tome. But you are one cute baby Suri, HAPPY BIRTHAY. Suri, are you invited to Shi’s Bday next month?

she looks so pretty.

Is it me or does it seem like this was all Brad’s idea. See, we knew as early as Jan 2007 that O13 was going to be shown at Cannes. And some of us wondered if Angelina will go or if one of her movie will debut there too.

Now we have not only O13 confirmed but AMH. I would like to think Brad is behind this because he got to keep his woman and family close. Doesn’t like to be separated from them.

Can’t wait for this movie to hit the big screen. The Cannes Film Festival will be hoppin’ with a star studded red carpet, with B&A right in middle of the frenzy!

Angelina looks beautiful in this photo. Thanks, Jared ! !

good night all and take care :-)

__________________________
I saw the coverage on Angie on E! also ( it is my guilty pleasure while I walk three miles on my treadmill) and I do agree with you that lately, all the references to Angelina, Brad and their family has been reported with alot less snark than in the past. Brownie points is what they be after, and if that’s the case, I hope they get some for their efforts.

Thanks for the new thread Jared!

Angelina is beautiful and I can’t wait to watch this movie.

To my Fellow BAMPZS Fans, have a goodnight!

Mrs. Lenny @ 04/20/2007 at 12:17 am

~I can’t wait to see this movie. I hope that she is at her best,I think that she is a very beautiful woman. Wishing Her,Brad and the babies all the best.

Peace~

I can’t wait to see them at Cannes. Y’all know what this means…more pictures.

Dina#1, I just think it’s youtube because I uploaded the video hours ago and it work then for awhile it wasn’t. But then it started working again and now, not so much. I tried to remove one of test junk videos and the site won’t let me.

Alex, I am glad to hear you’re doing well. I’m working on Mean Boys 2 :) I need to get my mind away from the angst that’s in it lol

Definitely I will be watching this movie so many times, I can’t wait.

Thanks for the new thread Jared! I cant wait to see them at Cannes =D

jeannified @ 04/20/2007 at 12:30 am

I am really looking forward to seeing this movie!

Thanks Jared for the new thread!

Amaya, could you post the link to your new video again? Please? Thank you!

And about the new forum, don’t worry, many of us belong to other forums. But JJ is fun because it is open and not as regulated as the closed ones, for instance Bradforums has a no bashing rule. I love BF and I also like JJ a lot; they are very different and do not exclude each other.

Awesome.

Glad that The Mighty Heart will premiere at Cannes. I heard this year’s festival 75th year old. Will be so special.

Ever so lovely….When will the movie be shown in the USA? I just adore her.

I can’t get to your video. I was there earlier & my comment did not post.

BTW the Director’s Cut of Troy is in movie theaters today in Germany. It’s more than 30 minutes longer and shows more skin - well, Brad’s skin is the one I’m interested in. I’ll keep you posted, let’s see what the critics and the public have to say about this version. It could be a lot better than the original one,

The director, Wolfgang Petersen, did a movie “Das Boot” and then presented the Director’s cut that was over 3 hours long. It was mind blowing, the best submarine movie ever and really worth every minute of it. Let’s see if he has the golden touch this time, because I was not a fan of the version of Troy shown in theaters.

Missouri fan, you’re welcome hun! Your little Bradley sound adorable.

stranger, the video is not working…I tihink it’s the site. Here’s the link anyway.

sorry Amaya :) okay just relax for a little while and clear your mind of anything relating to MB2, instead think about B&A in Cannes and all the beautiful pictures we are going to get :), then you can think about MB2 again lol.

Here’s the Entertainment weekly report
http://www.ew.com/ew/article/0,,20035328,00.html

She is almost unrecognizable with the brown eyes and the curly hair…but as always, very beautiful. And I have missed this kind of coverages about Angie. Decent things with real content. Can’t wait to see this movie. And Ocean 13 too.

I always smile whenever I see your post. I can’t blame you , Angie is exceptionaly beautiful…. right Ariel!!

Daniel - May 21/22 in Cannes and June 2007, I think

Alex, it’s not MB 2 is like a mental vacation for me. The angst is there because the last two poems I wrote weren’t all silly and fluffy like MB 2 although they were topical.

OT…somewhat.

Look who ELSE is now in trouble in India! OMG - just goes to show you, before you step off the plane in another country, learn the cultural faux pas (what is considered offensive) — apparently a public kiss between the sexes in India is a jailable offense.

Man, good thing not too many people in India caught Brad’s hand on Angelina’s thigh in the rikshaw that might have been a crime too. Maybe that’s why Brad was keeping his hands to himself on the top of that palace on the lake, and Angie was laughing behind him. :-)

Anyhoo…read on –

Shetty & Gere now facing legal action

Hollywood actor Richard Gere and former ‘Celebrity Big Brother’ star Shilpa Shetty may face legal action for kissing in public at a recent AIDS awareness campaign launch.

According to CNN, three lawyers have filed complaints in Indian courts against the pair, claiming that the public display of affection was “an obscene act”.

Papers have also been filed against a number of television channels for broadcasting footage of Gere kissing Shetty on the cheek repeatedly.

AdvertisementAccording to reports, such legal complaints could result in heavy fines or, in rare cases, jail time.

There were angry scenes in several Indian cities earlier in the week after Gere kissed Bollywood star Shetty several times, with crowds burning effigies of Gere and chanting “Down with Shilpa Shetty”.

coalharbourqt @ 04/20/2007 at 12:47 am

Thanks JJ for the update - Angelina will do a great job of portraying Mariane. They are both very beautiful women. And Cannes will be awesome.

Stranger - look forward to the updates re: 30 more minutes of Troy/BP - sounds delicious :-) And ITA - there’s no need for anyone to be threatened by a new JP forum - there’s enough love to go around everywhere!

Alec Sucs @ 04/20/2007 at 1:01 am

Hours after a verbally abusive voicemail message he left to his 11-year-old daughter was made public, Alec Baldwin’s publicist released the following statement to the TV show Extra:

“In the best interest of the child, Alec will do what the mother is pathologically incapable of doing … keeping his mouth shut and obeying the court order. The mother and her lawyer leaked this sealed material in violation of a court order. Although Alec acknowledges that he should have used different language in parenting his child, everyone who knows him privately knows what he has been put through for the past six years.”
_______________________________________________________________

This is what he says? If this were Angie there would be legal proceedings against her, it’s so unfair. I’m glad she leaked the tape, it shows what she has had to put up with for the past six years. What a deadbeat Alec turned out to be. He should take some pointers from Brad, Will Smith, and Hugh Jackman, men who actually care about and love their children.

Nakuha mo ba iyong message ko sa isang thread? Na magpunta ka dito sa Chicago sa Thursday, June 7, at bumalik ka na lang sa Missouri sa Friday, June 8. Manonood tayo ng premiere ng O13 sa AMC theatre sa Thursday ng gabi, tapos sa bahay ka na lang matulog.

Nasa bahay ako, bakasyon, inaayos ang kitchen kasi.

why everyone like Angelina ? she’s not good!

Thank you JJ. I could hardly wait to see pictures of the whole family in Cannes. This traveling will be exciting for Pax.
Briseis I can understand your comment because I am from Laguna.

Thanks again JJ your site is one of the best.

Mrs. Smith @ 04/20/2007 at 1:39 am

Missouri Fan…THANKS for posting that beautiful video ‘This One is For You.” It’s one of my all time favorite songs, and I love it even more with Angie in it.
Amaya… THANKS also for your new video. As always, WONDERFUL!!!

Can’t wait to see this movie! Just think, in a few weeks, we’ll have almost an embarassment of riches with all the interviews and photo ops from Cannes with our favorite couple.

39/Alec…ITA! Not only would there would have been legal proceedings drawn against Angie, all the child experts and pundits would have been on every talk show condemning her, her life would have surely been threatened too. I’ve always thought Alec Baldwin was a scumbag, but what’s worse, is that he will get away with this simply because ‘he’s a man.’ Contrary to what we’d like to believe, there is such a double standard between men and women, and when it comes to Angie, well, she’s in a league of her own, and not of the mortal kind, I fear.

yuehun…if you read & believe all the tabloid lies, for sure, you’ll not find Angelina an angel or a saint. From the way you build your senteces, you are a tabloid junkie. Sorry to disappoint you deary yuehun, but Jen is not a saint either.

sorry but I meant sentence not senteces…typo

Sorry to burst your bubble, haters but I love Angelina & Brad.

Amaya, thank you. I will try tomorrow.

gosh, I am glad I turned the computer back on. Amaya, are you the person who was writing the fanfic? Or was her name Gray something? She hasn’t been on in quite awhile, like so many others.

I hope AJ/BP have a picture of Shiloh looking at Z’s cracker. If thy do they can show it to her when she is old enough to understand. Those pictures of her and Z are priceless. Also the ones each of them took with their dad, Shiloh at the movie site, and Z at Baskin Robbins, or any of the ones Z has taken with Brad.

I saw E tonight. I am happy that man, can’t remember his name, said what he said. I especially loved the fighting with pigs will only get you dirty, but the pigs will have fun comment. After that how can any rational thinking, hate free person not see that the tabs have a vendetta against the jolie/pitts, but especially Angie.
If they see this now there is no hope for the haters. But people are speaking up in defense of them, which is a good thing. Don’t question the motives of E, let’s appreciate the message. Peace

Should be, if they don’t see this now there is no hope for the haters.

Thanks JJ for that beautiful pic of Angie . I can’t wait to see the movie and i will be here (usually lurking ) for the Cannes Premier night.
I hope most of the regular people stay here .You are all so wonderful especially in the way you handle the nonsense Sadly their biggest as in the ugly hearts joy is when they do “get “to you, well no whats sadder is that we have such hateful jealous people in this world . I have always enjoyed JJ’s because most of you have a way of making this forum so cosy talking about the happier things and enjoying each others company.
I also love and appreciate the pics ,videos articials of the BAMPZS family . Goodnight all.

Brad has always wanted to work with the Coen brothers. He was suppose to do a silent film with them but the production company got spooked about the film being silent. The Coen’s probably offered Brad a great/funny character role.

funny Says:
========================================
Brad and George play off each other so well so this sounds like it will be a fun movie, one of the Coen’s black comedies. If Angelina is only working 40 days this year, someone in the family has to bring home more bacon, 4 kids are expensive. LOL.

i wonder when will be the premiere here in new york..

^^^^ Would love to know too. Anyone knows?

why everyone like Angelina ? she’s not good!

Yuehun sweety, because she has a beautiful heart and lucky enough a face to go with it. Even without that beauty people would still love her. She is also a very honest person and ofcourse it does sometimes get her into trouble with the media because they try to scrutinise her information and present it in a negative way to the public. Most of the public especially we here, see the real Angie and we do not allow our opinions to be clouded by the media that can sometimes be very mean towards her.What you see is what you get. She does not hide who she is. She is also very down to earth and a really good mother to hers and Brads four children. When she loves a person she loves them truly and tries her best to make them happy. For example she loves Brad and when they met she knew that Brads biggest wish was to have a biological child and she gave him what he wanted and Brad is very happy. That is true love. What more can I say? I could but I leave it at that. It is hard not to like Angie. I cant make you like her but I can assure you that I have always liked Angie and always will.

konnitiwa @ 04/20/2007 at 2:49 am

KK1, thanks for bringing Brad’s new project. “Burn After Reading” seems comedic spy movie and George will play assassin and didn’t take CIA agent’s role. Brad might take that role. Anyway Coen Brothers’s movies have been always unusual and interesting. Brad and George will beat each other with tricks and jokes. Where is African Girl ?

LMAO. I wonder how will these tab. spin next week. Oh yes, Brad ask for a trial separation and Angie freak out, rush to Cannes to be with him blah, blah,blah. same old, same old for the last 2 1/2 years.

PT ITA. I am actually waiting for the reviews to discuss her interpretation. Not very often actors get a chance of playing someone who is still alive. See what it did for Helen Mirren. I know Marianne Pearl is not an iconic character like the British monarch, but the transformation, without big prosthetics is remarkable.

That’s great I’m from Nice so Cannes is just the city next to mine… I’m probably gonna passed by to see them. I already saw Brad Pitt in Cannes in 2004 with ex Jennifer Aniston, so this time it’s gonna be with his new love ;)

Sorry I also wanted to say: are they gonna be together? Cause Brad’s gonna be in Cannes for Ocean’s 13, and Jolie for A Mighty Heart so I don’t if I’m gonna see each. This 2 movies are certainly not gonna be presented the same day.

She looks stunning…
Can’t wait to see the movie. Just hope it’s a good one for a change…
I would love to see her in a succesful movie again.

What has Just Jared done for BAMPZS…except add to their misery by putting up photo’s sold to him by the papps..who stalk them daily and make their life hell…

The only reason am not seeing this movie is that, the rights to it were brokered and acquired by Aniston and Brad went on to give the role first intended for her to his mistress who does not evn know how to act especially such roles that are not girl interrupted. I hope the film bombs.

I don’t think Jolie can pull off the role of Marianne Pearl. She is not such a good actress and should stick to sick, disturbed girl roles that suit her character more or lara croft where no talent is needed. I don’t see this movie being a success. Critics are going to tear it to shreads. I can’t wait.

Brad Pitt Joining Burn After Reading
Source: The Hollywood Reporter April 20, 2007

Brad Pitt has signed on to join his Ocean’s 13 co-star George Clooney in the Coen brothers’ Burn After Reading for Working Title Films.

The black comedy, which also stars Frances McDormand, centers on a CIA agent who loses the disc of the book he is writing. Like the film’s title, the screenplay is shrouded in secrecy, and it is unclear what role Pitt will play.

The Hollywood Reporter says the actor will begin shooting the film in late August.

Joel and Ethan Coen wrote the screenplay, and Joel Coen will direct the contemporary project. Focus Features will distribute worldwide.

Thanks Meli. I think Brad has comedic talent and timing & delivery that might have been overlooked because of his looks and that him being perceived as better suited to romantic leads.

I find it funny that you have yet to see the movie but you’re already giving your critique. I know sometimes its better to just let the close-minded be but I’m responding to you for the benefit of those who has no idea on the background of AMH.

Aniston was never involved in the negotiations for the rights of this movie. It was Brad Pitt who woed Marriane Pearl. Mrs. Pearl gave it to him because among those who bid he was the only one who actually read the book.

It looks like we have something to look forward to come the OSCARs!

According to Marienne Pearl’s interview given in 2003, she gave the right of the book to BRAD because he was the ONLY person who read her book among several people who negociated with her.

According to Jennifer’s interview in 2003, she even DIDN’T read the book.

According to Brad’s interview in early 2004, NEITHER Brad NOR Jennifer planned to act in AMH. They were planning to ONLY PRODUCE this movie.

According to Entertainment Weekly, Warner which bought the right of this book from MP dropped the idea of making her book into film. ( There were no development of this book at that time).
Then in 2005 Palamaunt (misspell ?) Vantage had interest in Brad’s idea and took the right from Werner. At that time this couple was already broke up. ( Jennifer has NO contribution to this process. It was ALL Brad)

According to Variety’s Brad interview, Brad’s ex has NO connection with Plan B now. (She took several projects which are attaced to Werner)

Ocean’s pair set for new Coen brothers comedy

Fresh from their roles in Ocean’s 13, Brad Pitt and George Clooney are preparing another co-starring venture in the new film from the Coen brothers. The A-list Hollywood actors will take centre stage in Burn After Reading, a black comedy that is based on the brothers’ first original screenplay since 2001’s The Man Who Wasn’t There.

Burn After Reading stars Clooney as a CIA agent who mislays the disc containing a confessional book he has been writing. It marks the performer’s third outing with the Coens, following star turns in O Brother Where Art Thou and the legal caper Intolerable Cruelty. It is not yet known what role Pitt will play in the tale.

Jolie at her toughest in Daniel Pearl film
Friday April 20 2007 14:04 IST

REUTERS

LOS ANGELES: Angelina Jolie has never shied from tough subjects in films, but it could be her upcoming movie about slain journalist Danny Pearl that shows the beautiful actress at her grittiest.

“We didn’t want to be too melodramatic or too polished. We didn’t want it to be a typical movie,” Jolie told Entertainment Weekly magazine in its summer movie preview issue that hits newsstands on Friday.

Jolie, 31, portrays Pearl’s wife, Mariane, in “A Mighty Heart,” which is set to open on June 22 and is based on Mariane’s best-selling novel about her search for her husband after he was kidnapped in Pakistan in 2002.

Pearl was beheaded, and the video of his execution was posted on the Internet, and much of the film shows his wife frantically trying to find and save her husband.

The movie was produced by Brad Pitt, Jolie’s companion, and during filming in Pakistan and India last year, the film crew’s presence caused a storm of publicity as they were followed by paparazzi.

While shooting in a school in Mumbai, India, Jolie’s bodyguards were accused of blocking parents from picking up their kids, although the security officials claimed they were barring celebrity photographers from storming into the school.

“The paparazzi rushed through the gates and caused chaos. It was not the film production that caused chaos. We were only guilty of bringing the paparazzi,” Jolie told the entertainment magazine.

“A Mighty Heart” was directed by Britain’s Michael Winterbottom, who is known for bringing a sense of reality to films by using hand-held cameras and encouraging actors to improvise.

Jolie said she sometimes clashed with Winterbottom when his filmmaking style became too intrusive.

“Michael and I would have disagreements over where he could follow me. We came up with a system. If I closed the door, he couldn’t follow. If I left it open, he could,” she said. “I just needed to know that if things got too heavy, there’d be a place for me to cry by myself.”

By now fans you all know that it is one person posting using different names and they want to bring _in the thread,SO PLEASE TO ALL THE FANS DONT PLAY THIS GAME.Fans have already responded about how Brad got the rights to the movie,so lets not SPOIL the thread with that.

konnitiwa @ 04/20/2007 at 7:03 am

AMH’s release day is 6/22 (limited) in US. There would be another negative campaign toward Angie who took MP’s role. One of them is the story about Brad’s ex. They will pick up her indecisive, ambiguous words as if it were fact . Her delusional fans will spread their lies again. We have facts and should defend Angie with them.

Thanks for the new Thread Just Jared. Thanks for all the information about “A Mighty Heart” and BP and George’s new Movie. I think that “A Mighty Heart” will be a touching and moving film and I am sure that AJ will do an excellent job. She is a good actress and has given memorable performances in many films. It is good that the some of the media (excluding trashy tabs) are focusing more on her acting skills. I am sure that BP and AJ, along with their children, tries to keep as much of their lives private as they can. Best wishes to BAMPZS. Peace to all the fans. Keep up the good work Just Jared. Your site is the best.

The George and Brad new movie sounds fun. He has this movie and State of Play for this year, I think Angelina will do the Clint Eastwood movie early next year.

Ugly Aniston @ 04/20/2007 at 8:04 am

good evening to fellow BAMPZSers… to MF, Real tita and the rest of pinays here in JJ… galing talaga natin pumili ng idol… maganda na matalino pa at mapangkawangawa pa.. what else you can ask for.. Angie not only beautiful outside but inside too… that’s why i love and admire her a lot.

Can’t wait to see pix of my favorite couple in Cannes !!! I love me some Brad and Angie hugging & smootching and hope pix of kids too!! Maybe Pax will be used to paparazi by then :-).

just have one wish though.. hope the trolls and the haters will give a rest and stop posting here (wishful thinking) .. any Genie/fairygodmother in the house?? :-)

iwontseemovie @ 04/20/2007 at 8:11 am

My major objection is that you NEVER hear of a talented Black or Latino/a actor/actress that plays the role of a real life White person. I mean, I personally would love to see Will Smith (in whiteface, of course) playing George W. Bush in a movie, or Gabrielle Union in whiteface playing Hillary Clinton, but you just don’t see that. So why is it really “ok” to allow a white actress to (so freakin’ poorly too - she looks nothing like Marianne Pearl) play a person of color??????

I know you just want to hate it for the sake of hating it. Funny how some people are quaking in their boots that this movie is going to be a critically acclaimed success. I can’t wait to see it, and see Angie at the Oscars next year on Brad’s arm. The J-P’s have quite a wonderful year togehter to look forward to. It’s all good, and try as they might, nobody can spoil their blessings.

Stop trying to create drama and controversy where there is none. Besides, Marianne Pearl has a multi-ethnic hertiage that includes just as much “white” DNA as “black”, and she approved Angie for the part herself.

Methinks your real issue and agenda is to distract from the fact that this is going to be a powerful movie with a knock-out performance by Angie that will likely bring kudos to her and more awareness to an international incident. All that flies in the face of your fantasy of a world that hates La Jolie. So, just stop it. It isn’t going to work.

konnitiwa @ 04/20/2007 at 8:47 am

AMH is NOT a movie about racial issue. This is a movie about LOVE between husband and wife and FRIENDSHIP among people from different backgrounds. The theme of this movie is universal and beyond color.

One more thing.  If you dwell on racial issue. Marianne  has Chinese grandfather  and  Angie has Canadian Indian ancestor. Indian has Mongolian roots and thus they have same roots from Asia.
And Marianne’s father is Deuch and Angie’s ancestors are from France and Germany and Czech. They are all Europeans.

See what happens when you give time to nobody.

This proves you don’t know what you are talking about. Brad’s ex was never up for that role. You need to do more research and get it right next time.

Oh please let’s not start the same bullshit arguments that we have discussed already when the first stills of AMH with Angie appeared on the internet. We have discussed all of it. Their problem is that Brad and Angie will shine with all their glory at Cannes while their idol will take her dogs for a walk.

And just to set the record straight once and for all:

A Brad Article from 2004 promoting Troy

Quote:

IFQ: Jennifer Anniston and you are producing a movie about Daniel Pearl. Will you act in it, as well?

BP: Yes, we’re developing Mariane Pearl’s book A Mighty Heart. We won’t be in it we’re just developing it as a script. It’s a story that I’m very much drawn to. As you read the book what you see is this horrible scenario and they’re trying to trace his steps and save Daniel. They form in this house, this little microcosm of world peace in a way, all working to save someone, to help someone. You have a Pakistani, you have an Indian, Persian, and American, on and on it goes and that little microcosm is what really sets a great example for me.
——————-
She was never going to star in this movie. NEVER!!! She was just in Plan B when Brad was developing the project but as soon as her ass got out of the complany she has absolutely nothing to do with it.

Get than in your tiny brains..

Good Morning, dragonfry. 10. pm in Japan.

I don’t care haters who comments here but care the people who are lurking here. I want make this blog to be the resource of correct information.

I think that A Mighty Heart will be a success because it is a history on tragities that still they happen today and also will appeal to the women.

Thanks for re-posting Brad’s own words that neither he or JA ever planned on being in AMH.

I really can’t wait to see this movie. I haven’t read the book, but the story is certainly pertinent to our owrld today. Angie has bee described as being “fearless” in front of the camera, and from what she said in the EW article, about having to close the door on Winterbottom’s camera to cry by herself tells me she really tapped into a deep emotional well when filming this. I am expecting to blown away. I can’t wait to see it, even though it is a very painful story with a sad ending.

Excuses, excuses ... @ 04/20/2007 at 9:49 am

“We didn’t want it to be too melodramatic or too polished.” What a convenient excuse when that’s the way it turned out but not by intent. The British crews had trouble working with the Indian crews and the whole production was short on time because of a lot of red tape. Of course it wasn’t polished. And I suspect that the acting might not have been as good as hoped either. (Just because acting is polished and perfected does not mean it is melodramatic.)

Lets be real, Angie got the part because she is shacked up with the producer.

Thanks Jared for the lastest thread.

I am so looking forward to seeing AHM. This is definitely a great role for Angie like Gia, GI, George Wallace. She has the acting chops to pull off roles like this — and once again we will get to she, her work her magic. The way she can tap into her emotional is just brilliant and that is what makes a great actress, IMO.

And you consider this as something bad?? Think about it a little. Producers want their movies to succeed and get recognition because otherwise they will lose money. That means that Angie is considered a respected actress who could stand for this role. So if she wasn’t the producers that are involved wouldn’t have casted her even if she is with one of them.

And as we know I think a certain someone who was with the same producer for 7 years didn’t manage to get any project made and the though of casting her for this specific role didn’t even crossed the producer’s mind. LOL!!

Right tp, and this is why actors form their own production companies in the first place.

So yeah, Angie lives with Brad, who owns Plan B, and one could say she has an inside track, but it is no different than JA hoping to get parts through the same inside track because she was married to him at the time Plan B was formed.

Brad is not 20 or 30 anymore, his is in his 40′. He is still looks better than some 30 or 40 years. Also, “blob” is just a word. All it matters is that Angie loves her and don’t say she doesn’t because you don’t know her. You don’t know how she feels and you don’t know what happen behind close door. Shut your big ASS mouth.

I am a black woman and I have no problem with Angie playing Marianne Pearl. The movie is not about race so your point is moot. I believe it is about learning to see people for who they are not what they are (i.e., muslim, jews, blacks, whites). It is about a lesson on tolerance and respect for others culture. PS, she does not have any black make-up on.

It’s  Brad who has beneft from getting Angie in this movie. He got high demanding actress with low cost. He got globally popular actress in low budget indie movie. Angie turned down Sin City 2 despite of Robert Rodoliges’s repeated offer and chose this small movie. Now Brad is willingly paying the difference of payment (huge) every night, I heard.

If you’re going to respond to the haters, RESPOND TO THE HATERS. Don’t quote/copy their posts over and over again. Copying their name and time of post is more than enough.

Omitting their posts in your response is beneficial, two-fold: 1) If Jared deletes their post, there aren’t any record of what was said and 2) If the $h*tstirrers are gagging for a fight, let them scroll up and find the post themselves, assuming that Jared didn’t delete it.

Good morning ladies, let’s not forget to enjoy ourselves. When everyone answers the haters, their comments and responses dominate the thread. Whatever they feel, like dragonfly said yesterday, we fans are the lucky ones because we get to enjoy the beautiful family. Let’s look forward to the many family successes. Have a nice morning.

Angie can’t play Marriane because she’s not black but Jen can?
=====================================================
Thank You, Thank You! Now I know that poster is just yanking our chains because in one breath she is complaining that no Latina/black actress got the part, Angie did which is a disservice to black/Latina actressed. Then in the next breath she is complaining that Angie got the role that was supposed to be Jen’s.

WTH? It’s okay for Jennifer who is white too, but not for Angie? Again the complete double standard.

By the way, hi there, Dragonfly, really missed you!!!

Kaway kay Char at LMAS!!!

Angie looks beautiful as usual, Can’t wait to see this movie as well as Ocean 13. We have so much to look forward to this Summer, the Tribecca film festival, Cannes, NY, Chicago and LA premieres, heads are bound to explode and screams to the ocean will be heard all over the world :lol: On that note, we should ignore the haters,
Let’s not entertain them they come here to create drama, they are living in the past and unable to look towards the future, Angie is with Brad Pitt now, It does not matter what she did or who she was with in the past, her fans know about her past, the public knows about her past and Brad certainly knows her past, and he still loves her. So deal with it.

Shout out to Missouri Fan, Thanks for all the wonderful videos.

Amaya, Thank, beautiful video as always.

Ida, nice to see you here charting again, how are you?

Stranger, Sorry to hear about your nightmares, things will get better soon.

Sheri, Sorry to hear about your losses, I know you will be a great comfort to your friend.

Susie, Hello lady, how are you?

Maria, I meant to say congratulations on getting your Green Card.

CLINIQUA, where is the petition?

Did you even read what you posted? You said “Let’s be real, Angie got the part because she is shacked up with the producer.” Meaning that Angie got the part just because she is with the producer and nothing else. But you where so positive about it unlike me right?? LMAO!!!

As I said Angie is an Academy Award winning actress and a respected one and that is why they hired her. Not because she was with the producer. I brought JA’s name up as an example that unless you have some talent you won’t get a job just because you are with a producer. If that was the case then Plan B would have made at least one movie with her but they didn’t. It was a plain example. Don’t get so frustrated. LOL!!!

Also I want to say the movie is already made and any issue with color and all is too late. It’s been debated a million times, let’s not engage haters on that again. Let’s focus on what MP went through as a woman, and support this movie. Angie looks beautiful as always.

Lets please ignore the people who come here to cause trouble.

Apparently Brad is not going to the Chicago premiere:

Speaking of sequels

Both “Ocean’s Eleven and “Ocean’s Twelve” featured scenes shot in Chicago.

Not so “Ocean’s Thirteen,” the latest installment in George Clooney’s Rat Pack-inspired franchise. Yet the Windy City has been tapped to host the film premiere June 7.

“We don’t understand it,” said a source, who wished to remain anonymous, linked to the event. “I guess they just think Chicago’s a great city.”

In this follow-up to the sequel, charming con man Danny Ocean (Clooney) rounds up the boys for a third caper after casino boss Willie Bank (Al Pacino) double-crosses one of the original 11, Reuben Tishkoff (Elliott Gould). Andy Garcia, reprising his role as casino owner Terry Benedict, sides with Ocean’s team this time. The movie opens nationwide June 8.

Details remain sketchy, but Clooney and co-stars/accomplices Don Cheadle and Matt Damon have RSVP’d for the charity bash. Oprah Winfrey is a maybe — one scene shows Clooney sobbing during “Oprah.” Another “maybe” is Ellen Barkin, who will play Damon’s older-woman love interest.

Alas, Brad Pitt and Pacino have sent their regrets. Organizers are still waiting to hear from the likes of ensemblemates Bernie Mac, Casey Affleck and Gould.

Vanity Fair magazine editor Graydon Carter is hosting the event to raise money for the International Rescue Committee, which aids war victims around the world. The cause is dear to the heart of Clooney, who visited Darfur last year and filmed a documentary on refugees living in Chad.

The “Ocean’s Thirteen” evening will include a premiere of the movie at AMC River East 21, followed by a soirée at the new Room 21 restaurant, nightclub, set to open at 2100 S. Wabash Ave. Tickets for the screening alone will start at $500. Details will be announced at a later date.

Just count on digging deep to hobnob with Clooney & Co. The event will be “very chi-chi,” the source said. “There will be a very, very, high-end package available for those who wish to mingle with the stars.”

I have to disagree. In Touch’s choice to use the V Tech tragedy makes them look more stupid because if, for example, Britney Spears gets a makeover, including a new red wig, and goes out on the town, their next cover will feature her ‘new’ look, extolling her newfound value and marketability. For me, if they opted not to print a mag in observance of the tragedy, then I would probably respect them.

IMO, if a magazine spends 51 weeks out of the year cheapening people’s choices and lives, they can’t redeem themselves with a seemingly thoughtful cover story for 1 week.

Killing and terrorizing people is bad, but lying, stalking, and being nasty is just fine… PLEASE!!

Isabelle Mendez @ 04/20/2007 at 10:59 am

I am a balck woman too of Latin origin and I find it particularly offensive that a white woman should wear makeup to act a part of a black woman when there are many black actresses who would have played the part. I have never seen Angelina Jolie in such a role so I will not give my take on how she interpretes it. However am definitely not watching it because I do not think I will enjoy the movie. I guess many of you do not uderstand but if you were black you would. It would be different if she Marianne Pearl was one of those black people who looked white and that was the theme of the movie like the ‘human stain’. But this is like saying that black people were not up for the role.

Is this a wedding scene with Angie and Dan in this photo? The dress is cut the same way across the shoulders as Angie MAMS wedding dress. Hmmmm…. wonder if she favors that style?

Either way, the dress is really pretty and Angie looks lovely as Marianne. From what little we saw of the production, it looks like Angie is going to be wearing alot of colorful clothing in AMH. One of the reasons I like to see movies is to see how actors transform themselves, and it appears that Angie took on the character of MP very well from what we can tell so far.

QQQQ:

Thanks for the info. I had planned to go to the premiere (just stay outside AMC River theater, of course, can’t afford the $500 per ticket) with Missouri Fan, but Brad already nixed the event? OOOOHHHH NNNOOOOO!!!! ((((sobbing!)))) Why oh why can’t he go to Chi-Town if only for one night??? I had to endure the shooting of TBU here, with the ex’s and VV’s presence the summer of 2005, and during the premiere of 2006 — and I had thought that it’s my turn now with Braddy, GC and AP. But only GC and MD? No AP even? Boy, am I so crushed!

So Brad will not be attending the premiere in Chicage:cry: they have a full agneda, I doubt they will be able to attend all the premieres.JMO.

I’m black and I don’t understand where you are coming from. Will Smith is one of the most powerful man in HW and if he wanted to play a role like that then he would but that doesn’t go for all actors of color. I for one believe that the best actress for the job should play the part and if that actress happens to be one of color or not doesn’t matter. The fact that MP didn’t have a problem with Angelina playing her is all that matters imo. It is her story afterall.

Well, I am black and I’m not feeling you. Angie didn’t wear makeup. If you just look at the pic above, you’ll see that. How many times have you read an interview with Black actors where they explained that the part they played was intended for a White actor? Happens all the time. Angie is no different. They may have also wanted/needed a big name for this movie.

Never frustrated by meaningless ppl to me. She did not audition for it and get it; she was casted because she is shacked up with the producer. Never said she wasn’t a good actress, which would be your negative thinking on my behalf. Boy you took a lot of negative from a very short statement; do you often do that much thinking on other ppl’s behalf?

While we were on the subject she got an Oscar for playing a really unbalanced person, who at the time she was clearly that and said her self she identified most with that character then any other character she has play. So, I am not sure if that is really stretching one self? That role was not a challenge to her; to me (my opinion) when you play someone that is outside of what you know is a challenge.

MP approved that Angie plays her. Anyone who does not approve downplays the problem that MP went through as a woman. When suffering, death and evil come calling, color does not come into play, every color is affected. Look at the bigger picture. I look forward to seeing the movie in future, I heard it is good.

You are absolutely right Piper. In Touch should have a bit of self-knowledge of the trash they are. That is why I said that they are looking so ridiculous trying so very hard to present their selves with a little decency. They are just laughable and pathetic.

Wow, do I have a lo of catching up to do.

It’s gonna be a busy next couple of months so expect a lot of film press over the next few months.

I wonder what the Czech press’s reaction to Angelina will be? Prague is like the quintessential Eastern European city and here is this famous actress who can claim part of her heritage from there.

If haters have a problem with this imagined issue of race in AMH, they should take it up with Marianne Pearl, not Angelina. this is where, Mrs. pearl is gonn have to step up and voice her views if asked about the subject. She is a woman of color who was raised in Europe and has a totally different percpective when it comes to “labels”. She also has had an international life that not many people have experienced especially in this contry. I hope she will be open enough to listen to why some are concerned but also let people know that she understands the concerns but with this film, coming from her perpective, a white woman playing her is a non issue in this particular film.

I want to beleive that he’s not going to Chicago because he has better things to do and he’s not ditching a FREAKING CHARITY EVENT for Dafur because he’s still pissed at Graydon Carter, that would be low!

Isabelle Mendez @ 04/20/2007 at 11:16 am

I don’t care if Marianne agreed that Angie plays her. She was paid already so what could she say. Like someone said, if they auditioned and Angie came out top, then you would say she was the best person for the part. Do you see any one complaining abotu Wentworth Miller in Prison Break? That is why they could not come up with better and it was an auditioning process. And Yes Angie had to wear dark make up, use your eyes.

*******************************************

What do you mean you said nothing negative? You said she was “shacked up with the producer”. The term “shacked up” does indeed have a very negative conotation, suggesting an unseemly and sleazy arrangement. So by using that term, you set the tone for negativity. There was heavy implication in your post that something sneaky and underhanded had taken place that led to Angie being cast. Tp was not remiss in her response to you.

IFQ: Jennifer Anniston and you are producing a movie about Daniel Pearl. Will you act in it, as well?

BP: Yes, we’re developing Mariane Pearl’s book A Mighty Heart. We won’t be in it; we’re just developing it as a script. It’s a story that I’m very much drawn to. As you read the book what you see is this horrible scenario and they’re trying to trace his steps and save Daniel. They form in this house, this little microcosm of world peace in a way, all working to save someone, to help someone. You have a Pakistani, you have an Indian, Persian, and American, on and on it goes and that little microcosm is what really sets a great example for me.

I think people should remember that both Brad and Jen had their assets divided. Plan B went to Brad because that’s his baby and he won the rights because he was the only one that read the book. Since assets have been divided and Jen went away with her own share, it is unfair to Brad for anyone to attach Jen to his projects. It just one of the things that tabloids lie about. Everyone should move on.

Angelina Jolie Will Play Widow of Slain Journalist

THURSDAY JULY 13, 2006 03:25 PM EDT

FRIDAY JULY 14, 2006 08:00 AM EDT UPDATED

By Mary Green and Stephen M. Silverman (people web site )

Angelina Jolie will play Mariane Pearl, the widow of slain Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl, in a movie produced by Brad Pitt’s Plan B production company, Pitt has confirmed to PEOPLE.

“The film will focus on the deep collaboration between people around the world in search of Daniel in 2002,” Pitt tells PEOPLE. “We hope the film can increase understanding between people of all faiths and portray the story and the people involved as honestly as possible without anger or judgment.”

Contrary to reports claiming that Pitt’s ex, Jennifer Aniston, was earlier cast as Mariane Pearl, a rep for Pitt and Jolie tells PEOPLE, “Jennifer was NEVER attached to that role. When the project was first brought to Plan B, Jen was a partner in the company at the time.” Pitt has been developing the project with Mariane Pearl for two years.

The film will be adapted from Pearl’s memoir, A Mighty Heart: The Brave Life and Death of My Husband Danny Pearl, which chronicles her experience after her husband was abducted by Islamic extremists in Pakistan in early 2002. A month later, his captors released a video depicting his murder.

Pearl, a French journalist, was pregnant when her husband was kidnapped and gave birth to their son Adam in May of that year.

“I am delighted that Angelina Jolie will be playing my role in the adaptation of my book,” Pearl said in a statement released Thursday by Paramount Vintage. “I deeply admire her work and what she is committed to.”

The film will start shooting in the fall. It is Jolie’s first dramatic role since the May 27 birth of her daughter with Pitt, Shiloh Nouvel.

Earlier this week it was reported that Jolie will lend her voice to the DreamWorks animated feature Kung Fu Panda, in the role of Tigress, a martial arts teacher. The film, due next May, also stars Jack Black.

Isabelle Mendez Say

If they are not friends why are there pictures of Angie and Mariane coming out of Mariane’s apartment in NY late 05′. Why was Mariane in Namibia when Shiloh was born?
And wasn’t Mariane in India too?
You would like to think they are not friends but you do not do these things if you are not at the very least of friendly terms.

There are pictures of Marianne Pearl and her son with the Jolie-Pitts in Namibia. Apparently they became friends at one point. Anne Rice had no problem saying that she did not think Tom Cruise would have made a good Lesat in the movie based on her book. So if Marriane had issues then she could have spoken up. Marianne is light skinned. Also , maybe another reason Marianne agreed with the choice of Angelina playing her is because of Angelina’s UNHCR work and her passion in general for the less fortunate around the world. She probably spoke to Angelina and saw that she had read the book and along with Brad really wanted to tell this story.

Montserrat @ 04/20/2007 at 11:30 am

One more thing. The dress Angie is wearing is a replica of Mariane’s wedding dress. She had two. This was the second one.

The L.A premier is 2 days before the Chicago one and Brad will be there not in Prague. Brad is not the kind of man that doesn’t show up at premiers because he’s “pissed” with someone, he’s very professional. He must have other things to do.

According to PageSix Brad is back in NO

Let’s see…

Brad and Angelina are hardly apart… so we get posts about Brad being in NOLA and Angelina in Prague

Brad and Angelina’s careers are thriving… so we get posts about favoritism, jeopardy to their children’s well-being, and possible racism, nevermind the fact that actors like Eddie Murphy don’t get accused of the same when he depicts a non-black person (Coming to America, Nutty Professor, Norbit)…

Is that it, or should we expect more shoddy arguments about what these two people do?

i just seen angelina in a dylan hartung website, a kid stricken w/ cancer and is is fighting to beat it. he met angelina thru nicole kidman, as one of the kid’s wishes is to meet her (jolie) in person. he said , she is his ultimate cheeky babe..lol

I think that racial issue is such a lame excuse. You just don’t like her.
If the movie was about the race, then it would be wrong to Angie play Mariane but you are SO missing the point here: read the book or learn about Pearl’s life in the Internet. It is not about the race.

I saved this article but I forgot to save the name of the author. My apologies !!!!

I keep reading about people who object to Angelina playing Marianne because she looks black and she does have some black blood in her and Angelina doesn’t.

But do people understand that this movie is NOT about a black woman losing a white husband. It’s about a woman who lost her husband because he was a reporter who was in Pakistan and got beheaded by the Pakistanis. It didn’t make her pain any greater or less just because she looks Black and had a white husband. And how that would not affect how Angelina portrays those emotions.

Do you understand that this movie is NOT about a Black/Puerto Rican/ Chinese/ French woman who was looking for justice for the death of her White husband? This is about a woman who was pregnant and went in search of finding the justice for her husband.

Jennifer Lopez, a Puerto Rican playing Selena, a Mexican is a DIFFERENT story because in the movie, it did deal with how there is a prejudice against Mexicans. And how Selena’s father was a Mexican who worked in America to support his family and their financial situation was poor because they were Mexican immigrants and trying to make it in America.

Kirsten Dunst getting flack for playing a French queen would bring flack also because their is long history between Americans and the French and it isn’t the greatest. So for her to play one of the most well known French figuers from history and getting criticized for is understandable.

My POINT is that the movie about Selena and Marie Antoinette does have to do with their ethnicity, race and the country they are from.

The story of Marianne Pearl is about a pregnant woman who lost her husband and was trying to find justice.

Those people who killed Daniel Pearl killed him because he was an American Journalist. As far as I know Futterman and Jolie are both Americans. And Angelina Jolie is part French like Marianee Pearl, so she would be able to pull off a French accent. Also because she is a mom and just give birth herself, she can relate Marianne being pregnant back when she was in Pakistan looking for Pearl’s killers.

Renee Zellwegger didn’t get flack for playing a Brit in Bridget Jones’ diary.

Halle Berry is NOT getting flack for playing a White woman in an upcoming movie.

These women are NOT being criticized and neither should Angelina Jolie.

We won’t know where the hell they are until they want us to know but in all honesty it is none of our business. I would feel weird if people (hatahs &lovahs) were tracking my every move.

This is why I love this site!!! All the naysayers’ accusations (like that poster who was alleging that Mariane and Angie only met at the shooting of AMH and they are not friends) are summarily dealt with with pictures and links not from tabs but reputable sources. Also that false rumor about Jennifer playing MP. After these links/pictures are posted, these naysayers all clam up!!! Don’t cha love it?

I don’t understand why you have an attitude? I merely pointed out that I wasn’t hater and you respond like that? This couple stand for so much and do such wonderful things and they have fans like you? Maybe if you weren’t so focused on the posters who bash this couple, you could better determine the ones who don’t.

Ganja, the world just saw Brad & Angelina and Zahara at Baskin Robbins a couple of days ago. The pictures have been all over.

I guess one can turn the table around and said that Brad “shacked up” Angie to get himself som high quality cheap labour. The discussion is so silly, they were already together with children when Angie decided to take the role. Hypothetically even if they were not together, I guess Brad will be jumping high up in the air the moment Angie expresses her interest in the role.

Original Curious @ 04/20/2007 at 12:32 pm

AMAYA - missed it - had to take hubby to ER for incredible foot pain (we were there for HOURS and still don’t know what’s wrong with his foot!) Will catch the rerun this evening.

Well we do know from photos both were in LA earlier in the week. If Brad is in NO he probably has to reshoot a few scenes. Its no big deal if Angelina has just arrived in Praque or not other than wanting to know if the post saying she was made up. You never know with trolls/tabs.

I think when Marcheline died the production pushed that week of shooting to the end of the schedule.

that so kool! she looks amazing in that pic! cant wait to see d movie.

Hey piper, if you are there, they are talking about Alec on my radio now just like you predicted. They said it sounded like WWE and it was all about his pride not about having a relationship with his little girl. They said if it had been someone else people would raise hell but that for Alec, he’ll probably get away with it.

at the moment there are very few women in hollywood who can really relate to what Marianne Pearl is all about and fortunately angie is one of those few that MP could be really proud of as a woman. If any of you has read her articles regarding women (she writes every now and then in Glamour) you would see her fight against the sometimes marginalized but mostly courageous women. they might not be close friends but I am sure both women admire each other’s life work (MP n Adam her son were with them in Namibia). It would be very interesting how she will handle this role. Angie is a women now how has so much to live for and the thoght of losing even a portion of what she has now (family) would destroy her completely (God forbid)

hi bampzs is being a while

angie looks beautiful as usual,i am looking foward to both their movies.
Cannes is gonna be glamourous event.thanks jj for the post

Forget Angelina Jolie, the person Brad Pitt can’t seem to live without is George Clooney. At least on the big screen.

The Ocean’s Thirteen duo has teamed up yet again, this time for Burn After Reading, a black comedy—what else?—from the Coen brothers.

Details of the story are scarce at best, although per the Hollywood Reporter, the film will be set in the world of the CIA and follows an agent who loses a disc which contains a tell-all book he’s been writing about his work and life.

Clooney will play the role of the agent, but it’s unknown exactly how Pitt will factor into the film.

Also on board is frequent Coen muse and director Joel Coen’s wife, Frances McDormand.

Joel and brother Ethan cowrote the secretive script, which marks the fraternal pair’s first original screenplay offering since 2001’s O Brother, Where Art Thou?, a film that also marked the first of what will now be three big screen outings with Clooney.

After O Brother, the threesome reteamed up for 2003’s Intolerable Cruelty. Burn After Reading marks just the first time the brothers have worked with Pitt.

The movie is expected to go into production in Los Angeles this August.

However, the would-be collaborators may be meeting up before then.

The parties are all expected to convene in Cannes next month to promote several high-profile projects.

While dueling Sexiest Men Alive Pitt and Clooney will walk the Riviera’s red carpet in support of Ocean’s Thirteen, Pitt will also surely cause a media sensation when he and Jolie premiere A Mighty Heart at the south of France festival May 16. The film, produced by Pitt’s Plan B, stars Jolie as the widow of murdered Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl. Both will screen out of competition at the 60th edition of the venerable fest.

The Coen brothers’ latest offering, however, will be vying for the coveted Palme d’Or with cthe rime drama No Country for Old Men, a blood-soaked adaptation of the Cormac McCarthy novel.

I knew it! It’s all about the paper. IMO, if Basinger had as viable a career as Baldwin, maybe people would take this more seriously instead of wobbling about it. Mind you, she’s not that innocent either; directing this recording to the court was entirely enough, IMO.

And that’s a CHECKMATE!

thanks for the video

Scrolling back…I know a few here don’t care for conspiracy theories - but “Iwon’tseemovie” is one of the few PAID FOR HATER TROLLS that HUVANE hires to REGULARLY TROLL THIS BOARD and instigate TROUBLE. They’ve been given orders: they are the same people that kicked up dust ON THE WEB 7 months ago when it was learned that A MIGHTY HEART was going to Angelina.

*(BY THE WAY, There were NO ‘black online communities’ who objected to A MIGHTY HEART, one HATER blogger and faniston, managed to get a blurb objecting to the casting onto msnbc. IT WAS A PLANT. Msnbc, framed it AS IF this black online community was upset that Marianne Pearl was being played by Jolie and linked a black site. Only prob is when you actually went to the site, you had ALL these black people calling the author of the blurb ridiculous and saying they had NO PROBLEMS with Angelina Jolie playing marianne! Hahaha! It was once again a HATER SETUP.)

ONCE AGAIN, right on cue — BECAUSE THEY RESIDE HERE, the HUVANE TROLLS for MANISTON as you can SEE…IMMEDIATELY pick up the old refrain, jump right in, and start HARPING on the ‘RACE’ issue. They know what their jobs are folks. They had their marching orders 6-7 months ago when the news was released that AJ had the role, then during filming, and they also have their instructions now fo now, and probably in the march up to Cannes.

Don’t you wonder why and how they manage to find our old regular bampzster haunts/threads which are sometimes 3 and 4 pages back?!

Isn’t it suspicious, how FAST they start railing away about the ‘INJUSTICE of it ALL’ (casting), when news items and good press about Angie in AMH get released?! Of course it is.

They do it SO QUICKLY because THEY MONITOR US for HUVANE & CO, and have TALKING POINTS, that’s why.

Think people! LOL They are gearing up. Only this time, it’s gonna get TRACKED right back to Huvane AND Aniston, and SHE is going to end up looking like one desperate fool.

The LAST thing that dummy sit-com hack should want, is her DELUSIONAL hater fans and the paid for online Huvane trolls, whining publicly about how Jen should have gotten the role of Pearl (ahahahahaha), and then conversely switching to undercover ‘black’ trolls to cry about the casting. (Believe me, the troll named ‘Iwon’tseemovie’ is about as black as Sissy Spacek). Maniston is just going to look even more sad and desperate if people start on cue whining about this movie being hers. Muahaha.

It’s like Alice from the Brady Brunch crying that she was robbed of the Meryl Streep role in Sophie’s Choice. It’s like Patricia Heaton crying over being robbed of the Hil Swank lead in Boys Don’t Cry. It’s like Tina Yothers being jealous of ScarJo. COME ON PEOPLE. Wake up. This is someone on the cast of an ensemble sit-com VS an OSCAR WINNING ACTRESS who started at the LEE STRASBERG INSTITUTE when she was 11!!

Plus, I think the backlash against the tabloids and haters over Angelina being demonized by them, will actually propel the legitimate media/press to slavish her with good press for her life, her work, and this movie.

The haters are actually doing her a favor.

Hahahahahaha!!

ITA. If I remember correctly, didn’t Anne Bancroft get roles in her husband’s Mel Brooks’ movies, too? Ditto Marsha Mason when she was married to playwright Neil Simon? What about Nancy Allen when she was married to director Brian de Palma? In fact, it is a common enough practice that it doesn’t really get commented on, or even if commented on, is accepted matter-of-factly. Only Angelina gets crucified everytime AMH is mentioned by the tabbies, that she is “sleeping with the producer”, or flirting with the producer, etc etc.

Cliniqua your certifable! The way in which *you* stalk and carry on with your analysing and dissecting and 20 page posts, one could easliy surmise that *you* are paid by Jolie &co. and/or Jolie herself, considering what addicts and compulsive liars you both are. You are an addict just like Jolie and that’s why you defend her so. Jolie *has* made altruistic efforts, however, it’s always under the guise of deflecting bad press off of her which makes her intention even more disgusting because she’s doing it for that purpose only and proves how manipulative and calculating she is.

Do you see anyone anywhere ever posting 20 page posts every few minutes about how great Aniston is or *ANY* celebrity for that matter?? What are you doing with your life?! You are one sick puppy. Not too mention your long ass posts about Aniston!!! I can’t stand Aniston but there’s no such *twisted and sick* fan to disagree with who goes on and on about how they worship her like you do about Jolie - so, I and people feel compelled to disagree with you becaue your completely irrational, illogical and downright lie!!! You consistantly spin and gloss over the truth about Jolie. What are you doing?? You and other Loonies are such hypocrites!!! You condemn and demonize *ANYONE* who disagress with you about Jolie (of course you must be American) which is to say, you condemn people who don’t like Jolie, so then is it my right to condemn and demonize you when you demonize Aniston? Or is it because we simply disagree with you? (as I said American…) Get a life!!!

Cliniqua, do you personally know Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt? ***Do you know them???* What in god’s name possesses you to spend your ((((life)))) defending people who are celebrities and who you don’t know? Do you see what a stalker you are?? OMFG!!!!

my opinion @ 04/20/2007 at 1:34 pm

Black is the absence of color. MP is brown, a mixture of colors including white.
Ergo, Angie can play the role of MP. Is the subject on this thread still about colors?

Did she paint her face wtih color and what color did she use? Blah, blah, blah.

Seriously, ida, don’t go!

#239 wake up-

C’s post is #235 and your post is #239. Why are you watching this blog so CLOSELY?

This is a public blog. C is entitled to her opinion. There is always this POSSIBILITY that Huvane paid people to blog and plant lies .

I am NOT saying all critics are paid posters. But I do believe there is 1 or may be 2 paid worker from Huvane. We all know Huvane sent an email to perezhilton to tone down the attack on Aniston.

Just for your info, I dont email C nor do I even talk to her on the site. (I normally dont do social chat on the internet). But I do believe her gut instinct.

One word of caution, to those who used a different name and claimed to be Jolie fan, let me say this:–

If there is no TRACK RECORD attached to the screen name, how can the claim to be a Jolie fan be VALID?

Any Jen fan can use a different screen name and claim to be a support of this family.

Exactly! Where ARE all the protests against the truly innocent? These people who feel the need to protect Aniston and Huvane(adults) are strangely quiet when the children are attacked.

Paying someone to post? I think it’s great! It provides gainful employment to some. But realistically, is there enough money in the world to make a good person look bad and a bad person appears good? Is it really that black and white? At some point, there are better things to spend one’s money on because all things come to pass. Relax. Let’s enjoy…in perspective.

————————————

Thank you.

The timing is a HUGE clue. PR(Public Relations) is what Huvane does. PR is getting the public to discuss the person or thing, in the way in which the PR firm or person WANTS them discussed. In a way it is VERY much like politics, in that there is a LOT of ‘OPPOSITION research’ and ‘OPPOSITION games’ at play. Think back to conservatives taking the discourse away from Al Gore by getting people to think he ‘LIES’ (internet, love story, etc.) - they created a character - Al Gore is wishy washy, and changes his clothes to impress you - he’s a flake, he’s flighty. THAT is what they wanted the discourse to be about and it was. Or John Kerry - when his background of being a WAR HERO was raised - what did we get, the ‘Swift Boat’ fakers who tried to rewrite history and say that he wasn’t. Remember all that?

That’s how these PR people and Opposition people work! To tear people down.

Consequently, what happens when the studios start releasing good press for A MIGHTY HEART?? BAM! We get the usual twin attacks from TROLLS at the ready that it was 1) ‘Jen’s part’ (BAAHA!), and/or 2) the Angelina casting as ‘black,’ stuff. They do it because they KNOW - without me and others calling them OUT for it - they have more of a chance of engaging people with a back and forth all day long here on these boards and others — THUS, what happens?! The threads get overrun with the discussion as if it was REAL (occurring in the real world among people) and has MERIT, when it is NOT and does NOT!

How is it an issue, when it’s just one TROLL kicking up dust about Jolie & AMH under different screennames, and 10 fans talking back to it??

My advice: (and others have mentioned it previously)

1) if you HAVE to respond, and I would NOT…but if you HAVE to, do NOT cut & paste the TROLL original post.

2)Please continue posting articles/interviews and quotes that contain FACTS and tell the TRUTH of the matter - i.e., the LEGITIMATE Brad and Maniston interviews where any talk of her being anyways near AMH was met with a resounding, HELLZ NO!

3)pics, links that support the positive and also tell facts (for example, the pic of marianne in Namibia visiting Angelina, the pic of Marianne and her small son, and Angelina & Mad shopping in NYC)

Do NOT feed the trolls.

By talking to them AS IF they were real people with real opinions, you are being DUPED into engaging and creating a drawn out discourse as if these were legit issues, when they are NOT! They are FOOLING YOU. They could no more care about black folks to save their lives - they are haters of Angelina, and employees of Huvane - in some cases hired to kick up dust, and start some FAKE ‘racial’ discourse (as FAKE as ‘Vaughniston’) where they kNOW there would be none.

Hmmm, people have brought the complaint here about ida posting on___’s thread as her fan and I knew it was a lie. I don’t post on her thread, I am trying to stop people who bring confusion to this thread among fans.

I have to kind of wonder about these haters, esp. wake up, who say that Angelina does all her humanitarian and altruistic stuff, including adoption, to deflect bad press. Then I must say then she better stop doing her humanitarian and adoption activities, then, because they aren’t “deflecting the bad press”, in fact she gets even more criticism, even from so-called legitimate media. But since she is doing her thing, no matter what, then obviously it is NOT to deflect the bad press. See how simple logic works?

just saying @ 04/20/2007 at 3:02 pm

There are quite a few Brad fans that come and post here who never really accepted Angie in his life. Everytime something negative comes up about Angie in the media, they come and post negative stuff here. That’s just what I think.

The reality is likey in some grey area between the two opposite views. One thing is for certain as a Navy veteran he was no war hero to me.

I just think this whole conspiracy theory take by some of you is interesting given how many thought Lainey was full of it with hers.

I have been a Brad fan for a very long time. I am not afraid to critisize Angie if I don’t agree with something that she does. It doesn’t make me a hater. You can not just call everyone who doesn’t agree with EVERYTHING a hater.

ITA. Angie has been working for the UN for SIX YEARS yet some people talk like she just started doing this when her and Brad got together. If she was just doing it for the deflection of bad press, shouldn’t she be bored or tired of it by now and not have such passion for it that she ends up going to the fields, writing op-ed pieces and going to Washington to fight for the rights of refugees? I mean, why go to ALL that trouble if you are not serious about it?

Those fake magazine covers were funny.

Anyone know if this week People magazine has any pic of Brad or Angie?

I have to kind of wonder about these haters, esp. wake up, who say that Angelina does all her humanitarian and altruistic stuff, including adoption, to deflect bad press. Then I must say then she better stop doing her humanitarian and adoption activities, then, because they aren’t “deflecting the bad press”, in fact she gets even more criticism, even from so-called legitimate media. But since she is doing her thing, no matter what, then obviously it is NOT to deflect the bad press. See how simple logic works?

——————————–

Excellent point!

279, Julia — who are the longtime Angie fans that attack Brad? They certainly aren’t on boards that I’m on?

And 269 ‘blog conspiracies’ I’ve long believed this. I don’t think they are as prevalent as the straight up hater and faniston trolls, but there used to be entire groups (Pitt center) who in my opinion didn’t respect Angelina, and if they had ther druthers wouldn’t haveher in the picture…take bradforums, they relegated Angelina to Brad’s co-star thread. So I have no doubt that there also must be a contingent (small) of those Brad fans who are just as ferocious as the haters and secretly squeal in glee when Angie gets smeared in the press and or they’ll post and bash her. It goes both ways, I do know a lot of hard core Angie fans in the beginning - weren’t keen on Brad either, unlike the undercover hater Brad fans, I think they’ve come around - and come to like and appreciate what Brad has given to Angie.

Where did you get that list? Most of those movie haven’t been released yet. There are some interesting titles, and actors who might be up for Oscars. Let’s hope AJ get nominated. You what I think she will just to get them to come. Remember this year they didn’t come and everyone complained because they said Brad should have been nominated for Babel. They need them for star power. So she will probably get nominated. What about producers? None were on the list. Thanks this year is going to be truly interesting, and I hope good for AJ/BP. Peace.

*just to clarify my comment a bit..
Even if I didn’t like Angelina, Which I do, as a long time fan of Brad, I would respect Her and Brad by not trashing the Woman that He chose to be His Love and make a Family with..
Thats where my issue is the fans of one or the other who constantly trash one of them.

Schumberger @ 04/20/2007 at 3:40 pm

Making a movie is a business venture . You dont just hire an actress based on one variable such as color. All the pieces have to fit togetherto arrive at the final decision. Factors to consider are:-

1) talent–does this actress have the acting range required by this movie

2) salary–Every movie has a budget. You may like certain actress but if she asks too much, you may have to hire someone else

3) script–May be the actress doesnt agree with the producer on how this story is emphasized or interpreted.

4) director/actress relationship — May be the director and the actress dont like to work together.

5) scheduling—Even you want to hire this actress, but she may be all booked up until months or years later.

Decision making is NEVER based on 1 single variable.

And there HAVE been Angie fans who come on JJ and rant against Brad. I forget their names… but they always complain about Brad getting more respect. They claim he never gets criticized and never defends Angie. Also that it isnt fair that he is doing so many movies and Angie isnt. They have said really rude and unfair things about the man Angie loves. Wishing for them to break up, etc.

I loved Brad first but have come to love and admire Angie also.

Umm this board for one.. lol..
I have read many times how Certain posters wish Angelina was still single, had lovers and had never met Brad. He makes Her have a bad imgae, All the bad press is his fault, He should stand up for her, He’s not a Real man he stinks.They wish she would take the kids to Africa and leave him. You haven’t read any of that?

Julia, There are trolls/haters who come to this board and sometimes pretend to be a fan of one so they can diss the other. That is one of the tactics they use to try to upset us.

This has been a good thread. So much interesting news about future projects.

I guess we have to remember that in the midst of all the tabloid muck, Brad and Angelina are talented actors/producers with many projects on board.
I look forward to seeing their movies and their red carpet appearances. I hope they make oodles of money because I know a decent portion is going to help make the world a better place.

================================================

Excellent post!!!

It amazes me how some can’t see how flawed their so-called logic is.

You have to wonder why some are so afriad of Angie and the manner in which she choose to live her life. Not everyone is cut from the same cookie cutter and understand that we all are free to live life as we see fit.

Also some forget that everyone has a past but it’s how one choose to live in the present that counts. We all evolve and grown up — well I hope we all do. Nothing in life stays the same and who would want it too?

I’ve read, but what makes you think the people saying Brad stinks are Angie fans?? LOL

Ditto the ones saying the other stuff.

I’ve heard some people saying they think Brad should go to the tabloids/press more and ‘defend’ Angelina whatever that means — anyone who actually wants that is either screwy or being deceptive and not really fans — if Brad or anyone actually dialogued with any of these rag sheets it would just legitimize their fake lying stories and call more attention to them.

Brad & Angie making a statement of fact and releasing it is different (what they did this week)..

…but in my opinion, as to the rest of what you say — there’s no way of knowing if they’re actual Angie fans or undercover haters, using the pretense of liking Angie, just to deride Brad and them as a couple.

However we do know the people that ran Brad Forums put Angelina in the co-star thread along with fooking Kevin Space and Jason Statham. The family thread is just for Brad and “his children.” Pretty sick.

There is no comparable Angie site where you can say they’ve treated Brad like this.

I’m just going on evidence.

I’m not taking sides either way - I can evaluate them both objectively because I wasn’t a Brad fan or an Angie fan before ‘Brangelina.’ That’s not to say I didn’t like and admire them and think they were good people…I just wasn’t a fanatic about it, if you know what I mean. It’s the two of them together, what they have found, how they make each other better, the beautiful family they’ve created and are raising, their charitable works - their sense of adventure, passion, love and respect they have for each other…that has made me a FAN of them BOTH.

Tabitha, Micro… LOL you both said the exact same thing..
I hear ya.. :)

There are those who wishes for the ‘Golden Age’, as it was.

There are those who wishes for the ‘Golden Age’+ Shiloh.

There are those who wishes for the bad @$$ Angelina.

There are those who wishes for the bad @$$ Angelina + Maddox.

There are those who wishes for the draw that their respective boards used to get before they opted to draw a line in the sand re: Brad and Angelina.

Choices were made; those days as ‘those’ fans reminiscence and long for are over; and now, they’re pi$$ed. But seriously, who the h*ll are they to get pi$$ed, really? They bought movie tix, posters, DVDs, mags… not ownership papers. If it is such a disappointment that Angelina and/or Brad has more children than in 2005; that some of the children are adopted; that one child is biological; that Brad and/or Angelina aren’t ‘tagged’ to stay within the Malibu city limits; and the fact that they are together, then they really something else to wrap their minds around.

No, you aren’t compelled to agree with every choice that they made, but their choices don’t impact you directly; their flying to Africa doesn’t stop food from reaching your table; their PDA or lack thereof, doesn’t affect your job performance; their collective or one-on-one time with their children doesn’t affect your lab results.

Humans living in a free society have many options at their disposal. There are many opportunities for success; there are chances for failure. If their being together is a mistakes, it is definitely, incontrovertibly, 100% their mistake to make. PEROID!!

If it will make money, you can be sure that it will be made. You will find that Hollywood doesn’t care about any other color except for the color green.

Are you saying it’s okay to bash Angie because of the decisions she make?

Why is okay for you to have that right but you don’t want Brad decisions to be questioned?

I don’t bash either because I am happy they found a little piece of happiness in this sometimes ugly world. They are a couple and I feel if one can’t be bashed then neither should the other one. Afterall Brad chose to be with Angie — she didn’t drug him or hold a gun to his head in order to make him be with her.

I don’t always agree with the decision my two sons make but I never bash them for making them. It’s their lives and they have to live it for themselves.

Hello, Malaya, Ugly Aniston and MF. Hello to Briseis, Keana, JJoy and everybody!

Ugly Aniston, you are right! We sure can pick ‘em. Good taste talaga tayo maski na nuon pa, I remember how they loved Liz Taylor, Marilyn Monroe, Audrey Hepburn, etc. Only the best ang nakakalampas sa dalampasigan natin. Kesyo artista, goods or anything that is uso. Kaya iyang si Jennifer, hindi papasa sa beauty, only her hair na kinopya naman sa Japanese kaya hindi rin original.

Personally, I place that in the same category as Elvis, Pat Boone, and other white artists covering songs from R&B acts; only with the Wiz, its backwards and they created new music/lyrics and a decided subtext to the basic story/characters. Oh snap… don’t get me started about movies! :lol:

LOVES IT.

i didn’t believe all the break-up BS the tabs were writing about. They cannot live without this couple. So i seriously hope brangelina fans dicn’t support them by buying these magazines. We all know the truth anyway. They are together and happy. BEFORe i had no idea that such lies would be printed that way about celebrities. i would just past by them and be like “WHAT! NO WAY!” and be naive about the stories. and it wasn’t until i became a BAMPSZ fan that i realized how much BS they put out there for headlines. now when i see these magazines at the grocery store i look at the cover and LAUGH my a$$ off at how crazy and inaccurate they really are. For example “WHY DON”T YOU LOVE SHILOH?” LOLOLOL it like ARE YOU SERIOUS??!!

Hollywood star JENNIFER ANISTON is teaming up with British celebrity chef JAMIE OLIVER in new US reality show The Big Give. The former Friends actress struck up a friendship with the Naked Chef host during her marriage to Brad Pitt, when Oliver used to cook for the couple. The Big Give, which will be hosted by Oprah Winfrey, presents 10 people with huge sums of cash with which they will compete to find “the most powerful, sensational, emotional and dramatic ways to give to others”. British newspaper The Sun reports Aniston and Oliver will work together in an episode of the programme.

I dont care about aniston, who cares? I dont even hate her.
MUCH MUCH LOVE TO THE BAMPZS

The Real Tita is a Brad/Angelina fan. Is the Tribeca film festival going on the same time that The Mighty Heart will premeire in NYC?

God bless the Jolie-Pitt Family!!!

Angie looks beautiful in this picture!!!

Tribeca film festival April 25 - May 6
Starts next week, but still no info when angelina’s screening maybe she drop off?

I cant wait to see the movie!

http://stylescenes.latimes.com/fashion/2007/04/angelina_jolie_.html

(beautiful pictures of AJ at link - Ignore snarky tone - I like her St Johns dress. However, it will be interesting to see what she will wear!!!!)

Who will Angelina wear to Cannes
Angelina Jolie will walk the red carpet on the Croisette at the Cannes International Film Festival next month to support her new film “Mighty Heart.” In it, She plays Mariane Pearl, the widow of Daniel Pearl, the Wall Street Journal reporter who was kidnapped and beheaded in 2002. Check out this EW story about the film and, more importantly, to see what Jolie would look like if she had brown eyes. Jolies’ co-parent Brad Pitt will accompany her in Cannes - no doubt to pay her back for putting on a brave face and suffering through the Golden Globes earlier this year. Just two weeks later, her mother died. Will we see Angie in another St. John gown, like the boring gray number she wore at the Globes? Hope not. Or will Jolie surprise us with a more internationally acclaimed, perhaps Paris-based couturier, like maybe Karl Lagerfeld or John Galliano? She wore slinky sexy black Versace gowns to both her “Mr. and Mrs. Smith” and “Alexander” premieres and a creamy chiffon Alberta Ferretti to the Worldwide Orphans Foundation event in 2005. My money’s on Versace this time.

Memo to Paris, Lindsay and Britney: keep reading to see how Angelina elegantly handles slit skirts on high steps. Watch and learn.

I agree. Versace looks great on her, makes her look sexy as hell. My favorite dress was the one she wore for the L.A Alexander premier. AMAZING.

Angelina may not have been available when the festival was going on so dedcided to show it there. Maybe Angelina decided to opt for old Hollywood look instead of sexy at the Golden globes. Maybe she will want to have a more sexy look this time. Maybe S aint Johns will be able to pull it off.

You’re still being political with snarks against John Kerry. Do tell how Kerry got his medals. Are you speaking for each branch of the military? I’m a veteran of active duty service and I’m not laughing at Kerry’s service. I support and respect anyone who volunteers and serve. Where were Bush and Cheney or must they find others who have served or the uninformed as your self to support their agenda. Al Gore also served honorably on active duty. Neither Gore nor Kerry chose to hideout in Canada, college, nor use their esteemed contacts to not serve as other average citizens when they could’ve like Bush and Cheney.

I don’t recall where I read that she HAS to wear St. John for any red carpet appearances. But no matter what she wears, she’ll look fabulous. Angelina is a trendsetter and others will copy her style/look/colors afterwards — like what happened at the GG: she wore gray and at subsequent award shows, other “stars” wore gray.

TGIF all BAMPZS fans! I hope everyone had a wonderful day! Finally sun in upstate NY.

Saw a couple of things of interest on the thread. Whoever the person was railing against Angie playing this part. What? All one has to do is look at the picture. There is no outcry from black women about this. I believe it was Cliniqua who spoke about the two fools who posted on MSNBC (?) and got an ear full of how idiotic they are! The only other person I’ve heard say boo is some nut job on FF! If Mariane thinks she should play her, enough said! Just my 2 cents.

I remember reading Angie is required to wear St Johns to red carpet events. It’s in the contract. She does have input as to the style. The original dresses for the GG were not something she was in love with and gave them her ideas and we see what happened. Perfection!

Everyone in enjoy! BBL

Fans, haters come here to steal our names. I think by now you can use the content of the post to know whether a name has been stolen, so watch out.

Sorry real tita and tabitha - am trying not to taking the bait and debate election 2000 and 2004. Let’s just say I’d rather believe the 9 guys on that boat who SAID VERBATIM that Kerry came back for them and save their lives than men who it’s been proved were PAID for OPPOSITION people by BushCo, and most importantly NOT THERE. They’ve gotten enumerable other payoffs as well since then, some pertaining to Homeland Security and the Iraq war, just for coming out of obscurity and bashing Kerry. Nuff said.

British newspaper The Sun reports Aniston and Oliver will work together in an episode of the programme.

_______________________

O.M.G. Jennifer Aniston is SUCH a hypocrite!! This, from a woman who is quoted as saying, she HATES REALITY SHOWS, and who said verbatim (”I hate that idol sh*t”)

“This is what I think the problem is: We have such an obsession with reality TV. That’s the majority of television. What happened to a great half-hour sitcom? It’s all Dancing with the Stars! Knitting with the Stars! Building a Home with the Stars! Living in the Homes of the Stars! And then ripping people to shreds. Humiliation. Degradation. What is going on? It’s so much instant gratification, and we want it real. It’s bizarre. I don’t watch TV anymore. Nothing. I have no interest in that Idol ****.”

Way to go Oprah, keep babysitting the poor sad rejected hypocrite millionaire Aniston and giving people that don’t need it a leg up.

Wow, between Rachel Ray (who’s mug is on every fookin’ product in my grocery store) and Aniston - Oprah needs to start a charity foundation that aids 30-something and damn near 40 rich white women in crisis!

….you know tv sit-com millionaire women who have suffered and persevered when divorcing fellow movie star millionaires after a 4 year of a childless marriage, and women who have published 200 cookbooks have 3 shows on the Food Network travel the world cooking stuff that takes 3 minutes, but who want to extend it to a FULL 15 minutes of fame?! Hahaha!

Well, I guess Oprah found out that Brad wasn’t coming to Chicago, so she called Maniston and said ‘Hi girlfriend, let’s DO something again!’ JUST to needle Brad. LOLOL Too bad he doesn’t know she’s alive, but perfect timing nonetheless O. Hmmmm….Angie and Brad will be in Cannes, and Maniston will use her ONE episode of Oprah’s new reality show to once again use someone and something else to get HERSELF in the limelight.

Excuse me, but just ONCE in her LIFE can she like, not use Courtney, or Brad, or Angelina, or Oprah, or a ‘co-director’ or an ensemble cast of friends, or her own bare ass or boob job rumors or fake engagements w/ closeted funny men to get herself on a show?? Really, just ONE time…try to..you know…just do some plain old acting in something worthwhile - and just let that stand or bomb on it’s own.

She is STILL coasting on the celebrity she got being with (and divorcing) Pitt - and Winfrey is using her too.

But at some point you’d think Oprah would have said that’s enough!! - so…who knows…perhaps O really is upset Brad is having nothing to do with her aSS and the Chi-town premiere, and he’s keeping Al Pacino away too…yipppeee! LMAO Sounds like Oprah came up with this idea, Jaime Oliver could have been suggested by Aniston at some point to participate in something w/ Oprah (if you recall, Oliver famously said, Brad with Angelina “is the happiest HE had EVER seen him” Muahahaha! Guess Aniston wanted to bring him back into the fold..), and of course Oliver would indeed be a way for Aniston to once again make her 4th or 5th appearance on Oprah in 12 months time. Coattails are her specialty.

Saaaaad.

I’m a veteran and I have major issues with John Kerry. I don’t think John Kerry has been truthful about his conduct while in the military. I also know a lot of Vietnam veterans who have major issues about his comments in the 70’s after he came home.I knpw some veterans who don’t have issues. You are right this is a blog about Brad/Angelina not politics. When politics are brought into this thread it can get nasty.

I think it is great that Brad/Angelina have attracted fans from all walks of life and political sides. That should be a testament to the wonderful things they have done.

#339: email me and I’ll answer your questions. As you said, this is not a political blog. I don’t see anybody else complaining when people are being snarky to Bush and Cheney or any other Republicans. Not everyone here is a lib or a Dem so don’t dish it out if you can’t take it yourself.

Thank you for your service but that doesn’t mean you are always right in your opinions.

Very nice. I like Elie Saab. Halle wore one of her dresses at the Oscar and it now the stuff of legends. However, AJ can wear a brown paper sack and still look beautiful. Some people have it, and others wish. However, if they are like me, then they just say “you go girl”.

even more drama and negativity.

I thought the Sun was a British tabloid. Why should I believe what they wrote this time. Besides that I could care less what she does or does not do.
We will have to agree to disagree on Kerry. There have been plenty of lies spread by democrats pacs and places funded by the extreme left such as George Saures. Extremist on both sides do not do the country any good.

St. John looked good on her, she looked like a princess at the GG but may be people want her to dress sexy. I’ll like her in whatever she chooses to wear.

You are absolutely right.She is so beautiful that sometimes you can’t take your eyes from her face,so what she wears comes in a second place.It happened to me at the Golden Globes.Everytime I see a picture or a video from that event,her face captures my stare like magnet.That dress was very beautiful but like you said,even a brown paper sack would work on her!She is amazing.

I think it’s interesting that you hold Jolie with high regard when she herself has stated, “I know all addictions.” Do you know what that means? Do you not understand what that means - this is not a girl with a “troubled” past who has moved on. Jolie said herself she’s an addict, why don’t you discuss that? Does it not fit your uninformed version of her? She. Said. It. Herself. And once an addict, always an addict and that’s that. Anyone can see that Jolie is in the vortex of addiction. Classic addictive personality: She says one thing and constantly does another and nothing is in moderation and everything revolves around what she wants, because addicts are extremely self- absorbed. An addict, as Jolie professes herself to be, goes from one extreme to another because of obsessive compulsiveness, she has to be in control, she doesn’t trust people (Jolie even stated that she didn’t trust her mother) and addicts are notorious liars, as James Frey expressed when he was publicly humilated by Oprah because of his lies - “I had this blown up version of myself in order to survive..” Please feel free to do your own research about addiction and you will see Jolie to a tee.

The more contemporary view is that of a person having an addictive personality, obsessive-compulsive disorder, or exhibiting addictive behaviors. A person with an addictive personality will become addicted to almost anything and often switch addictions. They may be addicted to alcohol, give up drinking and become addicted to prescription drugs, give that up and become addicted to gambling, give that up and become addicted to… you name it.

The behaviors of an addictive process focus around 6 primary areas (Itin & Gault, 1989):
1) Denial/Dishonesty:
A core element of any addictive process is dishonesty. The dishonesty of the addictive process is not simply lies, but includes elements of exaggeration, minimizing, projection, and delusion. At the core of any addictive process is an attempt to avoid acknowledging that the person is engaged in an addictive process. If a person is using alcohol they will often hide this from those around them. Similarly if someone is a victim of sexual abuse they will often hide this from themselves and others.
2) Trust:
Those affected by addictive process have issues of trust on either end of a continuum. On one end of the continuum is trusting inappropriately (trusting another even when this trust is not earned or deserved); on the other end of the continuum is not trusting anybody (even when this trust is earned and deserved). This difficulty with trust can be viewed as difficulty with intimacy or allowing oneself to be close to another person. As one has to be dishonest about what is happening it forces a person to distrust those around them. An other person may feel so violated by the events that have occurred to them that they don’t know whom they can or can’t trust.
3) Control:
The addictive process produces issues related to control. Because the addictive process involves feeling powerless over elements within one’s life, abusers and those abused tend to take control over other things. There may be an attempt to take control over events that they have little or no control over. There may be a high degree of rigidity in their style of dealing with other people. The attempts to control are an illusion that the person’s life is not unmanageable. Others may feel so demoralized by their inability to control the addiction that they give up all control and play the role of victim.
4) Feelings:
The addictive process requires that a person becomes separate from their emotions. The use of substances themselves numb a person’s feelings. The intensity of the experience that the person is dealing with may also cause the person to become numb to the feelings involved in the situation and eventually all situations. This does not mean that a person will feel no emotion, rather they may limit themselves to one or two emotions that theyfeel most comfortable with. For example, a person may feel only anger, or only sadness regardless of the appropriateness of the emotion.
5) Thinking Patterns:
To maintain the elements of control, separation of feelings, and denial the person dealing with the addictive process must develop ways of thinking which support the addictive process. These thinking patterns tend to be rigid, dualistic (either/or) and obsessive (intrusive or repetitive).
6) Low Self Worth/Esteem:
People dealing with the addictive process generally are affected by low self-worth and self esteem. This is to say that people will look outside themselves for validation. There is a tendency to react rather than act. There is also a sense of isolation and avoidance of others. The loss of self-esteem is a direct result of the addictive process.
7) Spirituality:
Spirituality is a relationship with something outside oneself. This can be viewed as a lack of real concern for others, a high degree of self-centeredness, a lack of belief in anything outside oneself and a lack of belief in ones own moral or value system. The addictive process will often cause a person to loose connections with those outside the addictive process (e.g., those who are not abusing substances or involved in the abusive relationship). Furthermore there will often be a loss of a belief in a higher power.
