Brad Pitt & Barack Obama are Related
Fri, 28 March 2008 at 12:27 pm
The View gals asked Democratic presidential candidate Barack Obama this morning to help clear up the rumors that he’s related to Brad Pitt.
“I guess we are ninth cousins something removed or something,” Barack said.
Jokingly he added, “I think he got the better looking side of the gene pool.”
Barbara Walters couldn’t agree more: “We thought you were very sexy looking (applause). Don’t you think so? (to audience)”
Apparently, the other Democratic presidential candidate, Hillary Clinton, is cousins with Pitt’s partner, Angelina Jolie, twice removed.
Um, yeah. Just so you know! Watch the clip of Barack on The View here.

So cute; I loved Shi’s shoes she had on that day!
adorable; I would totally dress my little girl that way

^these are some really adorable toddler shoes
hope she gets a lot of business now…can you imagine Shiloh Jolie Pitt wearing shoes from your line?!
Those videos have to be some of the most disturbing things I’ve seen. The J-P’s and their kids are real people and not some cartoon characters or characters in a novel. Sheesh. Putting pictures of them to a song?
My guess is you haven’t a clue how creepy that is
politicians know how to play the game
He looks like him.

Thanks
mom. please check your email 
Thanks JJ. As a massive Obama supporter (ex Clintonite), his turn on the View IMO was quite cool, and pretty representive of many of the reasons I chose to change from Hillary/Bill to Barack.

Ah this is old news! I knew this a couple days ago since it was in our local paper. The reason the clinton’s are related to Angie is b/c they have french canadian or just canadian on her background an I think Angies mom has it too so that is how they’re related. Plus Hilary is also related to Madonna, Celion Dione and Alana Moresette or however you spell her name.
I miss the Jolie Pitts.
TGIF to theJP’s fans! Enjoy the rest of today and have a great weekend!!!

If you go back enough generations, practically everybody is related to everybody else.

I remember this story from a few months ago when Brad was promoting MIR. I get that there’s a lot going on and some journalists are preoccupied with the elections, but dammit, there’s a need for someone to serve as a continuity person or whatever you call it in order to avoid this needless repetition.
And The View… how far they have fallen. Seriously, there has to be some better way to break the ice with a significant public figure. I mean, this is on the level of asking him ‘What’s your sign?’
As for the d*ckweed who continues to interject dire consequences if Obama wins the election, fold it up in four corners, okay?!! If Hillary supporters choose to support McCain, so be it. I’d like any Hillary supporter to come up to me, after McCain is in office and the direction of the country isn’t what they hoped for, and say that it is my fault that he/she voted for McCain. I guarantee there be a rise in reports of people getting a foot put in their behinds.
This applied to Obama supporters who threaten to do the same d@mn thing if this goes Hillary’s way.

72,am sure they are having fun without the crazy paps
Hillary and Angie are very strong women. I love strong, intelligent and compassionate women.
The interview was okay. Nothing new with Obama.
Hillary 2008!!!!!!!!

Hello Original jpf !!
Good to see your post!!
Hi MF, alia, Yes, saraicita,llm, andro and to a JP Fans ((waving))
I hate to talk about politics on a celebrity blog… All I have to say is I am so glad Brad and Angie are NOT endorsing any candidate!!!
When my family votes this year our decision won’t be based on gender, race, who is related to whom or which celebrity endorsed which candidate!!! We have brains and we are not going to be swayed by a big name celeberity endorsing someone!! Actually I find it insulting that they think they can make others to change their opinion on who is more qualified just b/c they happen to be their fans! JMHO
When we ie my family vote, we are going to vote for someone who can get America from this downward spiral we are in. Economy is horrible, our foreign credibitly due to Iraq war is in the dumps, millions are w/o health care, millions are losing their homes due to forclosures and our foreign debt is in trillions and for most of us social security and medicare is in jeopardy! US dollar right now is half of UK pound and dollar keeps on losing it’s value all around the world! We need someone with experience and credibility around the world that can dig US out of this mess we are in. OK, I’ll get off my soapbox again this is JMHO!
MF–love your video
Saraicita any news???
Maniston is related to Gus, the guy who maked gyros at Papalis Restaurant in athens..give him a shout out if your ever in town, he’s the one with a large sausage nose and a hairline that starts above his eyebrows…very small eyes kinda close together…looks just like his cousin.
We are all related! We all come from Adam and Eve.
Guli: still pregnant
I agree that I think it is great that Brad/Angelina don’t tell us who they are planning to vote for. I hope it stays that way. It makes sense since they have to deal with whatever administration that gets into office. I don’t vote based on celebrity edorsements. I am glad that this thread has not turned political. I hope it stays that way. If it does not it won’t be a peaceful thread.
