Brad Pitt’s Motorcycle Madness

I can drag and drop all your posts for everyone to see what sort of a fan you are! Knock it off!

To piSSyHOLE-a,

I watched the vidclip of Don and Brad provided earlier by Lady G, and I have to laugh at you pulling that explanation for Brad’s ‘Done,’ out of your ass. LMAO!! :-) The context is CLEAR, and very straightforward, he is agreeing with Don - who voiced the same sentiment about them being off the market.

You’re a jealous idiot to come to any other conclusion. Hahahahaha, hater - ya can’t stand it can you??? Learn to follow along and comprehend beyatchie. ;-)

bermy- I am around a little. I saw your e-mail post the other day and wanted to let you know I didn’t get one. How are you? :lol:

Read this in USA Today: http://www.usatoday.com/money/companies/management/2007-06-09-ceopay_N.htm

That’s more than 2½ times the $27 million in total compensation this year for the New York Yankees’ Alex Rodriguez, baseball’s highest-paid player, and higher than the typical pay of such A-list movie stars as Brad Pitt or Leonardo DiCaprio — $20 million, plus 20% of the gross box office take.

___________________________

I don’t know if these numbers are really true but wow, if Brad really did get 20m plus 20% of MMS gross and probably a percentage of the DVD sales.

That’s not including Troy, Fight Club (which is still in the top 100 of DVD sales list) O11, O12 and now O13 (though you wouldn’t think that he get 20m + 20% for the Ocean series, plus Babel, where he didn’t get 20m but he probably got a % of box office take and it took in rather a lot.

And I’m really happy he is so successful coz I know some of that money is going to end up in Cambodia, Ethiopia, NOLA, on refugees and the poor. Wonderful.

Washington, June 9 (ANI): American actor, director, producer and screenwriter George Clooney has taken a swipe at troubled Paris Hilton for using ‘cheap publicity tricks’.

The ‘Ocean’s Thirteen’ actor insisted that when people have no ‘talent’ they use tricks to maintain their celeb status.

“You can only get so far without discernable talent - then you either work, or use cheap publicity tricks to keep the public’s attention
——————–

Not only Paris Hilton. George speaks for us.

Remember when Angelina said something about realizing that she had only been with great friends and never a true love? Well, looks like Brad is just another Great friend.

Looks like she settled for the first guy she thought would be a good father
+++++++++++++++++++++++
what it’s wrong with that? angelina and brad have been very honest and open telling everyone that their priority are the kids. If it works for them, why we should complain?

Once again the TROLLS are trying to bait JP’s fans. Don’t fall for it!

Rock on Jolie-Pitts!!!!!

I so agree. I did like the information this chap wrote about all her work in Cambodia. But there were bits that I didn’t like, for example, when he wrote that the elephants saved would only be seen by Brad and Angelina ( or something to that effect, unless I misunderstood that statement). I was like, WTF, the elephants are in a National Park. The idea is to turn that area into a wilderness reserve that paying tourists would go and visit.

Also, the 9/11 reference seemed somehow, badly written and unclear to me. I think what he was trying to say was that since 9/11, Americans have been reacting with fear. And Angelina have been an antithesis of this reaction because she has actively gone out and visited all sorts of countries, including Islamic ones.

+++++++++++++++++

Lylian - I don’t think he meant that Brad & Angie would be the only ones to see the elephants migrate. I think what he meant was, is the cause of saving the elephants any less noble or any less important because Brad & Angie COULD be the recipients of seeing the migration. The migration would go by their house, but it would also pass by the houses of most of the popluation that lives in that area, too.

In regards to the 9/11 analogy, what I got out of it was an obsure insinuation that Americans have turned to obsessing over celebs as a way of dealing with the terrorist threat. That it’s much easier to concentrate on the USELESS lives of we percieve most celebs of living than it is to deal with the possibility that terrorism can strike in our lives the same way it did the innocent lives lost on 9/11. That’s why he suggests that the tabs focus on what he called the “crazy Angie”, which was the person she USED to be in her early 20s as opposed to the woman she is now - the woman who spends her time and money helping to change the world, ie, the “good” Angie.

Maybe I completely misread it…but that’s what I got out of the analogy.

I finally saw Ocean’s 13 and it is very enjoyable and funny. Brad and George should do more movies together, they have an undeniable charisma as friends. It is my favorite Ocean movie and hopefully it will do good at the box-office globally!

question only to Jolie fans??? | 06/09/2007 at 7:31 pm
Just throwing this out there.I like the ESquire interview but was bother by the physcical descriptions of AJ.The twig,bones words use to describe AJ really Pizzed me off.It did.Couldnt he have put it a different way? I know the words that he got wrong to.Still didnt care for the phy.,description,and I know he didnt mean anything by it but I didnt like it.The rest on her works were terrific.Anyone feel the same?I just thought he could have descibed it better.AJ is more than her outer layers.All good inside of her all heart.
———————————————–
ITAWU, and also with PT’s take on his perpetuating the slander of AJ’s name that she had gotten a role originally meant for X. IMO, this was actually not a good interview. The writer spent way too much time trying to impress on us that he had found some sort of connection between 9/11 and Angie’s fame. In fact, I was so unimpressed with this obscure connection, that it did not seem to serve a purpose. On top of that, his repetitive use of the word ‘crazy’ ad nauseum, in describing some of Angie’s past and present actions, left me feeling rather uneasy. In the end, the only redeeming factor in the whole piece was the detailed description of her work in Cambodia and other UNHCR related parts. It’s probably just me, but I get the impression that this writer wanted to paint a portrait of someone who is still in the throes of fighting her destructive demons, of someone who might still give in to them eventually. This paper would have gotten a C. JMHO.

Are you the same same person who criticized Brad and Angie for talking about their children with the press? And went on to say actors like Johnny Depp don’t sell their families out when promoting a movie. Well here ya go. Here are some part of a recent interview

Johnny Depp: My family is my treasure

In a highly personal interview, Johnny Depp explains why playing the pirate Captain Jack Sparrow has helped him finally find the reason he wants to live.

It was that pregnant tummy that changed everything. It caused a seismic shift.
When Depp became a dad, he became the person he always wanted to be: calm, happy, loving and loved.

That manifested itself in his most iconic role: Jack Sparrow in the blockbuster trilogy Pirates Of The Caribbean, the final instalment of which -Pirates Of The Caribbean: At World’s End - opens here next Thursday. The character he created took its inspiration from raddled Keith Richards and cartoon skunk sexpot Pepe Le Pew: mischievous rather than villainous, all glittering gold teeth and high-polished camp.
When we meet this time, in a sterile hotel room in Los Angeles, Depp’s charisma and teeth sparkle.

He’s still filming a few scenes for Pirates, and the teeth are still on, but now they look as if they belong. Johnny Depp, the man, has merged with Jack Sparrow, the character.
He is no longer miserable, dark, anaesthetised with drugs. He is bright, sparky and children-friendly. Jack Sparrow has been the greatest gift. It’s hard to remember when Johnny was the outsider. He’s wearing horn-rimmed glasses today and a battered felt trilby.

Now, though, he’s marketing gold and he is clear and profound about what caused this transformation: “Meeting Vanessa and fatherhood.”
Depp says that the birth of his daughter Lily-Rose, now seven, “was not only the greatest thing that’s ever happened - it’s the only thing that’s ever happened to me.
“I helped give our daughter life and I feel she gave me life.
“Suddenly, you meet your reason to live, meet the future. It was like my birth in a way. I was born that day.”
Dramatic words, but he says them almost in a whisper. He has stopped drinking spirits and taking drugs.
“I quit drinking spirits because I couldn’t stop.
“I would just keep going until a black screen came down, where you can’t see anything any more.
“Trying to numb and medicate myself was never about recreation, it was existing without living.

“Now I have a solid foundation to stand on.”
His eyes twinkle some more when he talks about his kids, Lily-Rose and five-year-old Jack.
“They make me happy. Simple, fun things, me and my son zooming around in little cars or making up absurd stories about Barbie dolls who get obsessed about peanut butter.”
One can guess at how traumatised he must have been in February when his beloved Lily-Rose was stricken with what is believed to have been E.coli poisoning.
She was taken to hospital in London and there were nine days when the family kept vigil at her bedside.
“It gave us a great scare. It was a very bumpy patch, but she has come through it beautifully and she is now as healthy as she always was.”
He is so devoted to Vanessa that even a screen kiss with co-star Keira Knightley upset him.
He says he could never love anybody else.
“I’m old fashioned. It’s my Kentucky mentality -seems I can’t escape it after all.”

I know nothing about tibet situation in China and I don’t really follow china’s politics and I also don’t know what is the real reason that Brad was banned because I was not Brad’s fan then. I began to follow this couple right after they got together and was hooked since then. Actually other than this couple, I am not interested in any other celebreties in HW. I just use my common sense to comment, because China is a lot more open than before, why banned a celebrety with no threat? What did Brad do to china? and Brad is not a politician, base on that, I think he has no problem in going to Chine. JMO - peace.

+++++++++++++++

LLM - Brad was banned because of his participation in the movie “7 Years in Tibet” and his subsequent support for the Dalai Lama. The Dalai Lama is in exile because he supports Tibet’s freedom from Chinese rule. Needless to say…Brad - and Richard Gere - won’t be getting a Visa into China anytime soon and I seriously doubt they’d allow Angie to adopt from there, even if they weren’t currently restricting US adoptions.

I don’t usually go OT my beloved Brads threads or tbh even mention this subject at all-. In fact I’ve even got a bit arsey with those ewho have in the past (sorry folks!)… but today I dunno, maybe I’m feelin’ naughty . I thought some of you might be a touch amused by this >

Considering the source I’d say to be fair that it’s probs a load of bobbins (as we say here) But still, I think that it shows a certain publicist has not fully done his homework in setting up a mail order love interest… and anyway as I said it’s vv amusing… And now I’m going straight to hell.. lol

++++++++++++++++

ROTFL. Marmalade - you need to let the NOTW know that X’s not-quite new man having a coke problem will NOT be an issue for her. She’s got her own medicinal uses for coke. I guess you could say that using coke as a diet aid is a “medicinal use”….
