Brad ‘needs to tell the US media’ nuthin! He owes them no explantion of anything in his life- in any case they’d only go and twist things to suit thier own agenda. Does anyone think Angelina is sitting thinking ‘Well Brad says he loves me, he hardly leaves my side, we have four kids together, I can see it in his eyes every time he looks at me but ..I don’t know, unless I read it in an interview then I’ll never be sure..’? Anyone?? Nope- thought not! Gorgeous pictures BTW

Brad told the Italian TV that Angie was his great love. He needs to tell the US media not the foreign ones. It kind of got lost in translation. If you know what I mean. (wink)

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

Please, it’s not being picked up, because it’s something positive about Brad and Angie relationshiop. IOW, it doesn’t fit into the American Media agenda — ie to report only negative things about them.

American Media = a certain agenda about Brad and Angie relationship and if it doesn’t fit. They won’t pick up the soundbite or the article!

I’m going to be disappointed if those are the choice quotes from V interview. It sucks that everyone’s focused on the “friendship” quote even though he says nice thing about shooting Jesse James because of Angie’s pregancy, it just gets buried. Even in that People article. I think we as fans are trying to cheer up ourselves with the “Great love” comment but it is off putting how in the important interviews(the ones that will get media play not some random Italian news show), Brad talks about Angie only in relation to children and charity.

think positive! @ 09/06/2007 at 8:36 pm

160 please : 09/06/2007 at 8:24 pm

He answers the questions he’s asked, I’m sure you all forget that. Quit judging.
=————————–=
Well of cource they do forget. But Brad needs to say what everyone else want him to say just to please US right?? Maybe from now on he should demand the questions will only be about Angie so he can protest his love for her over and over and over again. Maybe that’s the only way some here would be satisfied. Cause you know the most important thing in Brad and Angie’s life should be what quotes the American press are taking and how they present them. That is what their only concern should be.LMAO!!!

How are you? Were have you been? Hope all is well. Okay when are you going to start making vides? :smile:

Speaking about videos. Missouri Fan I tried to register on Youtube, but they rejected every name I submitted. Where did you want me register, Youtube or Yahoo? I will try Yahoo on another. Fighting with the trolls about “deep friendship” has given me a headache.

To hell with haters, US weekly, trolls, whomever, Football is back. And I am ready for some football. I just dislike their theme song so much. It doesn’t have any punch or soul, like are you ready for some football. That is a hot song.

And tomorrow night semis with Venus. She has beaten Henin 7 time in the past. But the past is the past or is it a deep friendship. Hey just playing around.

169 think positive! : 09/06/2007 at 8:29 pm - Yes TP, its all about agenda, others agenda. Anyway just asking… was Brad asked about his moms? And this is a Yes or No answer. No explanation, nothing. Just Yes or No.

150 why : 09/06/2007 at 8:09 pm - well maybe if he talked about great love to V/Details mag instead of his DEEP FRIENDSHIP and his protection of everyone then MAYBE, but thats just my guess, it would have been featured on People and others.

But dont worry, everyone says his actions speak louder than words, so there doesn’t need to be any feature, Angie doesn’t any declaration of love to the public, she’s a tough cookie. (wink)

ITA with you, I still don’t get why he gets so protective of aniston and not of angelina. What the **** is he afraid of? is he scared jen will make public something he doesn’t want to? because I really doubt he still loves jen and not angelina.

I think Jen and Brad were right for each other at the time they were initally together. I think they were madly in love. Had he done MAMS when he and Jen first got together, or at the beginning of the marriage, he and Angie would have never been a couple. Apparently, Brad and Jen evolved into something that neither of them wanted to work hard enough to deal with. Best of luck to all-

About Angie’s weight-Why do women attack other women about their external appearance when most women resent being judged by that and that alone?Why spew hate at a young mother who happens to look much smaller than she used to? Hate her for what she believes in or what she supports. Her looks are external and have nothing to do with her heart. Some of the most evil ppl in the world may be perfectly proportiona

Some in the USA tabloid media have their own agenda. That “blob” comment was not done in the US, but everyone in the US tabloid media quoted it.

The US tablies are even quoting Angie’s fake interviews (tabloid stuff) in the foreign press, but unfortunate they would not quote “GREAT LOVE” quote of Brad.

please answer @ 09/06/2007 at 8:42 pm

Why do you think that American media has such an agenda against Brad and Angelina?

Nothing that Brad says will satisfy some people. He can scream “I love you Angie” 1000 times a day and they will not stop their whining. They will complain about the tone of his voice or something else. They are substituting what they want for what Angelina wants from Brad. They are basically unhappy that Angelina appears perfectly happy with Brad. They are unhappy with today’s Angelina, and want the version of Angeina they have in their minds to return.

Brad is notorious for saying little or nothing. When is the last time he has gone on a talk show? How often does he sit down for any type of interview unless he has a movie to promote? How often has he actually described anything of his personal life at all?

Now in a major departure from his customary behavior he does two magazine interviews and reveals more of his personal life that ever before. He does an interview in Italy and says Angelina is my great love, my best friend. Note he said his best friend. This demonstrates to me that he really truly loves Angelina and that they are extremely close to one another. That he wants people to know that. That he wants all to know that no triange ever existed. That he has stepped up to the plate and let all know that his happy golden marriage was a facade, that he and the ex mutually decided that the marriage had failed and was over, that Angelina was not a homewrecker in any way shape or form, that he chased after Angelina, that Angelina was hesitant to get involved with him. The tabs and blogs will spin and twist what Brad has said and that is the way it is. But what is important is that this intensely private man has publicly declared his love for his lady in words as well as in his actions.

If Brad was all about PR for AOJJ he would not have revealed what he did. He had to know that just the mention of the ex would bring out the miserable with their knives to cut him into tiny pieces. But it appears that he thought that it was time for him to speak, to get his viewpoint and thoughts out in public, and that is what he did. He spoke of the ex in a respectful way, he acknowledged their time together and shared past. He was way more respectful of her than she has been toward him. The deep friendship refers to that shared past.

What has set the bees off is his description of his life with the ex, the unhappiness, the dissatisfaction, the lack of focus, the lack of any shared goals. This is to them a gross violation of their image of this perfect marriage.

Now those that wordsmith all he says are the same that wordsmith all Angelina says and they will continue to do so. But it was time for Brad to speak and he has done so. The ex has been firmly put in her place in his life, in his past.

Brad said he handled his personal life concerning the divorce the best way he knew how to. That’s all any of us are able to do.

No.

Americans reports ASK him about angelina but he chooses to say things that are not relevant like angelina does. When he has the open chance to say something, he takes time to protect Jen, himself and his mom.. and angelina can still get trashed for all he cares.

There is nothing to be happy about. I’m not gonna argue with anyone. Someone asked a question, i gave my answer. Its that simple. Wont say anymore the matter.

Angelina didn’t create the circus. The Vietnamese adoption agency spokesperson and the press created the circus. Poor Angie gets blamed for every damn thing. Feel for her. Peace.

NEW ORLEANS @ 09/06/2007 at 8:46 pm

i see we have some concerned fans i.e. jen fans, concerned that brad used deep friendship and that she’s my great love will get lost-i have to tell you ,you maniston fan,its one posting under different names,are pretty clever pretending to be fans of brad and angie,but you always slip up when you continue to post because your concerned does not come of as genuine but snarky-i’m not taking the bait-so sorry

Love the B&W pics of them… such a fabo spread!!

191 ????

How is he protecting JA. Can you post the quote?

Please also post the question that american reporters asked Brad about Angelina.?

The American media is all about the benjamins, in other words money. Look at how they treat troubled people Britney Spears and now Owen Wilson. No sympathy or understanding, just pursuit. This is why they screamed trouble with Brad and Angelina when none existed. They print whatever they think will drive up their sales. It does not matter whether it is the truth or not, it is all abut money.

LOVE ANGELINA @ 09/06/2007 at 8:48 pm

OK here goes.

I think Brad fell in Love with Angelina.

I don’t think things were going well in his marriage, but he seemed content to suffer through it. After all his parents are still married. His Brother and sister are stilled married to those they love. Brad would have stayed with Jennifer forever no matter how miserable or unhappy he was. If you look at all the things Brad did during his marriage they were nothing special. Brad was going allow himself to slip into this cold, repressive state. The W magazine shoot makes so much sense now. Brad was going to suffer in his love-less marriage, Domestic Bliss, and let himself fall through it. He was gonna stay and portray that false, fake, we’re a family, a happy family BS that people were forced to go through in the 60s like he said.

Angelina comes along and she is nothing like the world that has been suffocating his life. Angelina is his breath of fresh air. That cool breeze when your in a really hot room.

Brad has always been different. Brad has always said things that were out there. Our society forgives men for things however. We certainly forgive men if they look like Brad Pitt. So what crazy things he may have said were just forgotten and we reserved ourselves to seeing him as Brad the all American golden boy. All though has made just as many controversial statements as Angelina.

Angelina was unexpected however. I think Angelina will always blamed for the simple fact that women have always done it this way. Angelina was bulit to be to the OTHER WOMAN. Whatever. Not a lot has changed in our world. Folks love scandel.

I honestly believe Brad fell in love with her, pursued her, in his own way. Unable to hide it, but he was still gonna be faithful to Jen. Angelina pushed him away, this isn’t the same Angelina from a few years ago, like her BBT days. Maddox was her whole world, nothing compared to him. Angelina would never compromise her son.

I think even after realizing that he was in love he tried to work it out with Jennifer. Marriage is not like being engaged to Gwen. He will bad mouth Gwen. He won’t Jen because she was his wife. Brad is still from Missouri. You don’t do certain things.

So my hope is and the reason I wrote this is to say. Love has no law. You can’t restrict it from happening. I like Courtney Cox because she was honest, she said Brad fought it. Then that interviewer refused to acknowledge it, she dismissed it. Made Angelina out to be the one to get him. Made him out to be a cheater, when Courtney herself, Jen’s BFF, said he tried to fix it. Brad FOUGHT it. He fought the LOVE he felt.

What about working it out, sticking through the hard times, and all the stuff people keeping saying.

BRAD FOUGHT IT.

LOVE WON.

The JP look hot!
