OlderBrad & Angelina Continue New Orleans Housing Efforts
Brad Pitt shares a laugh on Saturday with Janice Porter, whose family had a home in the Lower 9th Ward, in the flood-ravaged neighborhood of New Orleans, Louisiana. Angelina Jolie and daughter Zahara were also nearby to lend their support.
Brad is expected to announce more details of his affordable housing “Make it Right” project @ 11AM EST Monday. More than 100 affordable, ecologically sound homes will be built in the coming months. On Nov. 9, at the Clinton Global Initiative in Manhattan, Brad pledged $5 million to the project, challenging others to match his largess.
Cute snippet from the New Orleans Times-Picayune about Brad, Angelina and the kids: “Jolie caught up with Pitt a half-block closer to the river as he was bicycling around the surrealistic site in a gray sweatshirt and cap. He posed for a photograph with an admirer and watched the children splash their feet in a puddle. Then he peddled off.”

Lol…I take your 5 million wows and raise you 10. You know what… I love the RC pix of the JPs, I enjoy the occasional dinner out pictures we get but seeing them in moments like these just melts my heart. In this “all about me” world we live in, it’s heartwarming to see people who understand we all have a responsibility to our fellow man (Okay, Okay I’ll stop…it’s sunday, what can I say?)
=======================================
AG, this is one of the reasons that I love this couple so much.
How can Angie look so great…raising 4 kids, shooting a film, supporting her man…all without make up and looking so amazingly gorgeous?
natural beauty, indeed.
ANGIE IS BEAUTIFUL WITHOUT MAKE-UP!
ANGIE IS BEAUTIFUL WITHOUT MAKE-UP!
I wish I could look that Gorgeous with a camera THAT close to my face, no makeup and be that BEAUTIFUL!!!
A good deed is a good deed. Not everyone is going to be happy because their community is not included. BP is a private citizen helping out the way he knows how. If anyone has failed the people of New Orleans, it is the US government. The Lower 9th ward is the poorest in New Orleans. Many of the people survived with nothing when the Levees broke. Let the people have a home and a future to look forward to. However, we can always depend on our resident troll to cherry pick negative emails and not the positive ones. Troll(s) are good for one thing only and that is spreading negativity. Live in your cesspool of hate trolls. I prefer the wide open space of human kindness. Peace to all.
Peace to all.
DD, it’s because we know Angie is on a journey and we as fans appreciate someone who lives out loud in the best way he or she can. We appreciate the effort and we choose to believe not everyone is motivated by cynicism.

You know, I applaud their efforts, but what makes me so mad, is the way they drag their kids everywhere. Those poor kids have no roots, no sense of security and calm being in a home that’s consistent and stable. Children need that more than being drug all over world. Just an opinion from a mom of 3…….
++++++++++++++
I just got off the phone with your kids…they want Brad and Angie to adopt them. It had something to do with their mother being an insane blog troll…
Love you Angie! Good to see you again. Thanks Jared!

Princess Zee has her finger in her mouth just like her mommy. Too cute!
+++++++++++++
Lady G - I’ve seen a photo of Shiloh doing the same thing. I’m way too lazy to hunt for it, though. I just remember it was when they were in NYC…
#21 and 24 are not original comments for this site but copied comments from the newspaper article “Brad Pitt’s N.O. housing efforts have Lower 9th Ward in the pink” Seems like there is some jealous from other areas of NO.
People Brad can rebuild all of NO. Why don’t they call Oprah and X. They have a lot of money!
Thanks JJ for the post, this is nice for Sunday. Finally got a picture. Maybe we will see pics of other kids soon.
It occurred to me that Brad has never missed any of Angie’s premieres so far; TGS, AMH, and Beowulf, be it in the US or outside the US.
Whereas with Jennifer, he missed quite a lot!
In 2004, he dint go with JA for Along came Polly premiere in London and Paris, and promo in Rome.
In 2003, Brad didnt attend the premier of Bruce Almighty in Los Angeles
In June 2002, Brad also did not attend The Good Girl Premiere in LA. He only attended the Industry screening in Aug 2002 and the one in Sundance.
But jennifer attended all Brad’s film premieres up to Troy in 2004, except the latter part of 2004 for O12.
==========================================
thanks that,s interesting
from a fan
Angie looks so much like her gorgeous late mom, Marcheline. She doesn’t need make-up.
# 39 Dirty Denise @ 12/02/2007 at 4:37 pm The Jolie-Pitts have the greatest fans in the world.
=======================================
Absolutely!

Yes , you have. Like i have the right to express mine.
And i’m telling you that you that if you look at that pic and say that Angelina without make-up isn’t beautifull, you either need some glasses or forgotten to put them on.
you attack me for that point ! for me she looks tired ! so ….
_________________________
What? Where in my answer i’m attacking you? I’m just expressing my opinion.
She looks normal to me… but as a mom of 4 kids she is probably always tired.
I am loving them more & more. Brad really built up his family & his philantrophic works. More power to them!
I am just so so proud to be their fan! Do your thing guys, and live your life… Brad and angie are so inspiring. That’s all. Oh, and what was that about brad announcing his breakup tomorrow, trolls? More like your breakdowns, losers!!! Bwaaahahaha!!!!
Thanks Jared for the new thread and pictures, so proud of Brad and Angie for what they are doing in New Orleans and all over the world, very glad to be a of theirs. WAY TO GO BRAD & ANGIE
go sox
Your comment is ridiculous. The kids are fine. Plus it is none of YOUR business. A lot of actors and singers travel a lot with their kids. Look at Cate B., G. Stefan, K.Homlems. I think AJ’s kids are probably more stable then kids that stay in one place all the time for Angie and Brad make extra special time for them. The couple I think are free committment wise until Brad’s next movie “Fighter” I believe and Angie is taking time off. She can relax and be herself. No dressing up, time to relax and dress down!!!!

This isn’t the first time Zee has done it (some of us fans commented on it and how she looks like Angie). And yes I saw the pic of Shi doing it too. Both Zee and Shi are too precious for words.
Hi jjoy, it’s been along time since I’ve seen you posting.
I just love the JP’s, nothing can stop them from doing what they believe in. But the idiots who critisize them for the last three years somehow don’t get it. JP’s don’t give a rats **** what the tabloids or the haters say. They know what they want to accomplish and they just do it, which pisses off the tabs and haters even more.
According to their calculations, prayers and tea leaf readings this couple should have been done six months after they got together. Three years later with four kids and great movies and their humanitarian work they are happy as a clam. Poor pathetic haters. ROTFLMAO!!!
from a fan @ 12/02/2007 at 4:31 pm
You know what…you are right, the least he can do is dress up like Daddy Warbucks or Rich Uncle Pennybags. I say the next time BP goes to a place like the 9th ward, where majority of the residents have lost their personal goods…he’d better be dressed in a Tux, a tall hat and spanking brand new shoes (You know the kind where you can see your own reflections on it). Do you think he should also carry a gold pipe…or is that too much?
Where oh where is the poster “Nicole”???? This supposedly fan of Brad & now Angelina & recently dissing Angelina.
HEY NICOLE SHOW UP YOUR TRUE SELF…WE ALL KNOW YOU ARE A FRAUD JUST LIKE YOUR PATHETIC IDOL THE ANUSTON!!!!!
YOU SOUNDS MORE LIKE CCCC!!!

Actually, I am familiar with the term and I get that the shot was ‘fatal’. The point is that Paris couldn’t take Helen’s husband, so Hector had to handle it. Hector had to face down Achilles after killing his cousin. And Achilles had to face the King of Troy after killing and desecrating Hector’s body by dragging him. Paris didn’t have to face anything or anyone, and while he did kill his brother’s killer, he didn’t do it face to face and add to it that Briseis was distracting Achilles, which was probably the only reason why Paris had the clear shot.
Paris was a wuss, period. All he did was whine to Helen.
*****************************************************
Piper, I feel your pain. I have always disliked Paris. Even when I read the story in high school. He was so damn weak. But he is a catalyst that brings about change, and is unchanged. He suffers not. Peace
Thanks for the new thread Jared! Love to hear about their good deeds are making at a difference. Hopefully, the US government will take note & walk the walk.
