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.”

Will larry king be in n.o or will brad be in n.y? Anyone know? Sorry if it’s a stupid question. Thanks.
I can’t believe that there is a thread here about New Orleans and you pathetic fans are talking about Brad attending or not attending Jennifer’s premiers. Move on or get a life already.

Larry King is filmed in LA.

LK will be in NOLA I think. CNN ads say LK will tour NOLA with Brad. I don’t know why either of them would be in NYC, LK’s show usually originates from LA, unless he has a special guest and then he flies to NYC for the show.
So I think, not that I know for certain, that the show will originate from NOLA.

John…aka purchaser of a sex-for-hire worker.
If I were you I’d think about changing my name.
Oh yeah…Angie looks great in this photo. You only wish the streetwalkers you’re paying for looked this good. Hell…you just wish they had teefs!
Thank you Brad and Angie for remembering your countrymen and helping out with your own earned money. Their are so many other celebs and wealthy people in the country that does not even give two cents to the rebuilding of new orleans…Many blessings to Brad, Angie and their family.

The only one he doesn’t control is the combover fool with the orange, red, yellow, hair. But after his last visit when Jenny Most? made funny of him he won’t blast Angie again.
People I don’t want to bring up the “R” word. Buth the 9th ward was about 99.9% black. And here is Brad starting to rebuild there. It was, is the poorest section of NO. Most people affected by Katrina lost just about everything. But everything means different things to different people. I was watching the news when they had the Malibu fires. One man was saying how he had lost almost everything. He mainly mentioned that he had lost a platinum ring. I am not making lite of his loss. But I bet he had it insured. And if you can afford platinum he probably had a little something in the bank. The 9th ward residents didn’t have platinum rings. They lost everything, even the lives of loved ones. So be happy someone is caring enoung to try and help these people. Who knows your turn might coming up next. Peace.
At the OSCARS earlier this year (FEB04), VAN HELSING star Beckinsale praised fellow awards guest Jolie’s beauty, declaring, “I could have eaten her up with a spoon. She’s so gorgeous.”

105. Kk1, thank you so much. :smile:
Weird angle but if she doesn’t have makeup on I think she looks great. When she does wear makeup she usually only has on foundation, eyeliner, and lip gloss anyway so I can’t tell if she’s wearing any here. too blurry. She does look a little tired tho
I live in Louisiana and did a lot of Katrina and Rita tracking for the feds. If you have two or three days I can recall story after story of hard working decent people who raised generations in the Lower 9th. Yes, there were no gooders but by far those people worked hard in menial jobs to get food on the table and their kids in school. Brad Pitt is a saint and God will bless him for his generosity of spirit and wealth.
The only thing I ask of him and Angelina in return is PLEEZE CAN WE HAVVA COUPLE PIX OF THE KIDS FOR CHRISTMAS? HANNUKAH? JUST CUZ?
@john#104
Angie looks relaxed and happy how much makeup would you like her to pound on…of course she isnt decked out. she a down-to-earth gal she doesnt have to look like she just stepped out of a magazine everytime..
she’s absolutely beautiful w/or without makeup cuz she is BEAUTIFUL inside out!!
Oh, and by the way, for all you children/stability/home critics, have you ever noticed you never see a photo of any of their kids misbehaving? If my family had cameras following us daily you would have seen plenty of whining and meltdowns.

“…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.”

Are they with their parents?
When they go to sleep is daddy the last face they see?
When they wake up is mommy’s face the first they see?
When they go downstairs for breakfast, are mommy and daddy waiting for them? If that isn’t stability….I honestly don’t know what is.
There are different definitions for home…home is where the heart is. Great post and simply stated, AG…thanks.

That is awesome, thanks for the info on Beowulf, and I believe that it was 3rd here in the States
ral=John. same poster same topic. trolls/haters & fanistons are just want sompany…THEIR OWN!!
Thanks for the new thread JJ. Brad is looking like he’s just anybody in NO. Very grounded. Lol at some of you who want him to dress up or to remove his hat because YOU don’t like it. LOL!!!!! Insanity run amok.
Angelina looks glorious. She really is a beauty. I hope they are eating fantastic food. Yum. New Orleans is the best in the country in regards to food. I’m a foodie so I’m kinda biased.
Now these pictures were supposedly taken by regular people right? let’s see the power of JJ. let’s see how many places these pop up at. It wasn’t in any of the news agencies (paps) so let’s see.
where’s the pictures?
