Angelina and Brad - Time’s 100 Most Influential People

Of course they do! They are fantastic and cares about helping others.

Congratulations Brad and Angelina and eat your hearts out, Jenhags!

this is totally bullsh*t
how come dalai lama be the top 1? crazy

The do have influence due to the media being so interested in them , It is good that they canalize (sp?) this interest so people learn and maybe get interested in supporting good actions.

YAY MILEY!!!!!!!!!! YAY ME!!!! #10!!!!!!!

I hate Barack and Hillary. YAY McCain!!!!!! YAY MILEY!!!!! MILEY RULES!!!!!

Why is Miley Cyrus on this list? She hasn’t done anything to influence anyone. All she’s done give a concert as a pretend rock star.

I think Angelina jolie should be separate on the list from brad pitt because she’s the real deal and not a faker like her baby daddy. How long did it take for him to get actively involved in charity? someone needs to tell that wannabe that he aint angelina jolie.

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

They are a unified couple who work in unison, like with the Jolie-Pitt Foundation. Brad is Angie’s full partner in every way. Angie would not be with a faker, she is an honest person and so is Brad. They both fully support each other’s humanitarian interests. They are the both the real deal.

Accept reality. Brad is a permanent part of Angie’s life. Your attempt to denigrate him is pathetic.

Yes Brad and Angelina should be on this list. Good they are in front of Oprah.

How cool that in a two week period Angelina makes the top 15 on FHM sexy list, People mag most beautiful, most stylist mom and now TIME most influential.

She makes my list as one of the best.

together they make a difference. and they are really involved and knowledgeable in what they do, unlike those other celebrities, now those are the real famehores.

Jill,

the only thing hurting is my stomach - from laughing at yo ass.

and don’t think i haven’t peeped you swagga jacking me. lol now keep begging for my attention. ROTFLMFBAO

Thanks for the info Jared! Happy for them!

OH, MY GOD! Brad and Angie beat out Okra. This is the funniest thing EVER. She must be so p***ed off. LOL.

God Bless the Jolie-Pitts

God Bless the Jolie-Pitts

God Bless the Jolie-Pitts

Good work AJ and BP!

I can’t believe Kevin Rudd got NO. 10. LOL. For those who don’t know, he is the new Prime minister here in Australia. Thats just so funny.

The media would have to be the most influencial tool over people and it seems as if star power dictates the media. Maybe the influence of the Hollywood heavyweights has been overlooked in the Time poll?

#: vivi, stupid vivi…do you read at all? How many people do you know have followers who will gladly die for him? How many do you know has so p*issed China off as much as he did that they are willing to wipe his country off the map? That guy has been chosen leader of a whole country and a world religion since he was a toddler. He is the ultimate Golden Child.

way to go JP!

#16: stop trying to pass yourself off as a fan. You’re here to stir up sh*t and that’s all you’re doing. Divide and conquer only works for dummies. They are a unit…live with it.

[☆F a m o u s☆] @ 05/02/2008 at 12:46 am

The only thing hurting is your little three inches which you’ve worn down to a nub from beating it off every night on this blog. Didn’t your momma ever tell you that you can go blind or insane from doing that?

I don’t know about blindness but you’re well on your way to insanity. So you just keep banging that little nub of yours and you’ll be inside a padded cell before the year is out.

*************************************************

How old are you, vivi? I’m guessing around 13 or so.

The Dalai Lama has inspired hundreds of millions of people throughout his lifetime. Who did you think should be # 1 on this list, Miley Cyrus?

How is being #21 topping the list of the entertainment section Jared? Being #1 would be topping the list. Being #21 is called coming 21st. Of course they should be lower. They are influential to whom? Wannabe actors?

How in the hell did Robert Downey Jr. make the list? Did I miss something important he did in the last year? He made Iron Man…and puts on blackface for a Ben Stiller movie. And for that he’s considered “influential? Normally I don’t have anything against RDJ…but his inclusion on this list just smacks of some studio honcho BUYING PR from Time Warner.

#58: you know they bought a spot for him, PT. They’re really pimping that movie to death even if it’s been said to be that good enough to be BO hit as is. I’ve never seen fishsticks get paraded out so much!

Forgot to mention, Pittwatch.com has a picture of Angie and Maddox taken from a long lens at the French Riviera.

#57: cause haters in their hate lose all sense of logic when it comes to the JPs, that’s why! It’s a wonder they still remember to fill their lungs with oxygen when they rant and rave.

It’s also why they commit so many typos when they punch the keys. They can’t see thru the red haze in their eyes. Either that or the keys stick to their fingers cause they drool too much on the keyboard.

#61: Those on first are world leaders. They should really be there and foremost. It’s not the money but the power and the influence of their sheer personality that determine their positions.

I want the kids to go to KFP as well, but maybe that’s a bit selfish. I wonder where AJ and BP stand on this issue? Isn’t there too much attention on their family as it is?

I never said, I hate Brangelina. I don’t hate them. When did I say that? I said I think they should be lower in the list and I don’t find them influential. That doesn’t equal hate.

I have now read the article and I see that they topped the Entertainment section, but came #21 overall. But if you understand grammar, you may also understand that “Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie top the list of people within Entertainment at No. 21!” implies that they came #21 in the entertainment section when it says “entertainment at No. 21″. Jared has made the grammatical error not me and you don’t seem to understand that.

Sorry about the double post. The page never loaded and when I clicked it again, it posted twice.

I believe that this list just shows the people who influence in general… the people who influence the mass. It’s a fact that this 15-year old influences thousands or even millions of young children and even some adults, by simply existing and acting like she is so much older. The same with Jolie-Pitt. They influence us because they want to.. they come public about everything they do and then we congratulate them and treat them as god. The politician’s as well… they have done nothing yet except from pre-election’s campaigns and a lot of talking. They all are an influence… so, to me, this list is realistic but the people in it are not necessarily to be congratulated.
the only positive thing is that the personalities included are really influential, not like the most beautiful-list where objectively ugly people figure among the top lists!

Hello…Thanks Jared !Love this beautiful couple and their Children.I am very proud of this great Couple who give so much of their money to the less unfortunate,and who took time out of their lifes to adopt children,who would of suffered through their life,and they make alot of sacrifices to raise these children and to be loving caring people.If they had not adopted they could be going on vacations in Mexico just laying around on beach sun bathing and not doing nothing and just tanning,And having good times with friends,but no they are busy raising these little children,Blessing to Brad and Angie I will always keep you in my prayers for all the good you do……Love the Jolie-Pitts for always.Thank -You ,Brad and Angie for all the kindess and help you give everyone.From Africa to Nola and all the places you help.

NL…sorry but I got to go. It’s late. See you tomorrow.

Of course they do !

No other celebrities have that REAL INTERNATIONAL appeal, not even Oprah who isn’t as known in Europe (with the exception of the UK) got that like them, especially Angelina !

She is the epitome of the SUPERSTAR from Asia to Europe, From the Americas to Africa, her face is very recognizable and she has trenscended the ’single citizenship’. She has this distinctive and unique cosmopolite vibe : she is perceived as an American but also everytime a little bit of their own, the nationals because she is very cultural minded with a great respect and curiosity about the host country she is in.

Angelina has that and you need to go back to the stars of the silver screen to find others who had that, when stars were more international minded doing films in many countries of Europe (France, Germany, Italy to name a few) as well as in Hollywood.

Marylin Monroe, Brigitte Bardot and a few others had that, they were ‘wanted’ worldiwe and perceived as belonging to the whole wide world.

Today, only Angelina has that kind of influence on a very large geographical sphere and the fact that she is known as a talented sexy actress but also has a proven credible record in political spheres as a humanitarian make the combination unique in History and very powerfull.

She deserves it ! She is influential in all those spheres worldwide !

Isn’t it a bad sign that nowadays JP’s family private information is getting outside of their house very easily?

seriously first this pregnancy thing which X17 revealed and then now this French trip and where they are staying.I find it very bad sign that now Tabs look like they know something.I hope JPs will find the person who is giving this kind of information to media.

______________________________________________________

Hmm… I was hoping they were just a little too casual with the information and allowed it to reach a larger circle of friends. I certainly would like to believe that AJ and BP know who they can trust to keep their personal life under wraps.

Angie has said she can’t trust anyone. That would be pretty hard thing to deal with. I don’t know if I could live like that.

Lucky she is so fortunate in other ways.

is brad pitt in france? or only angie and maddox is in france..sorry but no pic of them.she really love mad more than brad and the other kids

dumb *famous* is supporting coke-head obama??

lovin it!

that cook AKA famous doesn’t have any working brain cells so I apologize to the fans for paying attention to “it”.

tabitha @ 05/02/2008 at 6:30 am
I think they both deserved to be on the list and since they are a team it makes sense that they are together on the list. .
_____________________________________________________

I can see why you think that but I really don’t like how they put them together. They are united as a family but have separate careers and causes. Of course sometimes they overlap. They do deserve to be there on their own. By putting them together the focus is on them as a super couple and not as indivudials with specific causes. Other couples on the list are supporting the same cause together.

Well deserved! Congrats to them both. :)

I would say higher for Angie and Brad.

(Thanks to Brad Pitt for helping in rebuilding New Orleans. While Politicians talk, Brad Pitt is a man of action. Support the MIR Project.)

In a sign that the city may begin to take center stage if all three candidates continue to debate who is angrier about the lack of recovery funding, New Orleans’ Mayor and Louisiana’s Governor have invited Barack Obama, Clinton and McCain to a YouTube New Orleans town hall debate in September, but none of the candidates have accepted yet.

On his way back to the airport Thursday and responding one more time to his “Rebuild it? Tear it down? You know, whatever it is,” McCain said he didn’t remember ever uttering the quote, and added that:

Our job is to create the environment that if they wish to come back to the Ninth Ward that they have the proper healthcare, the proper education and facilities, etcetera, etcetera.

To save a step, the Senator needs to know that nobody has to tear down the Ninth Ward. That was already done by a massive federal levee failure almost three years ago. And if McCain truly wants to make a statement in support of New Orleans recovery, Everlast and Ben Harper could probably use one more volunteer this weekend from the Straight Talk Express to Penn’s Dirty Hands Caravan.

Nice home.
Hopefully they’ll get the privacy they obviously can’t get here. People are whining about them deciding to have their baby outside the US. What does it matter? They want peace and hater or fan we all know that is impossible here in the states. it seems that its okay for anyone else to raise their children ‘their’ way. Will and Jada’s children have never seen a school and go everwhere with their parents. Tom Cruise’s children are educated through Scientology. The Hiltons allowed their daughter to drop out of school before completing highschool. The Cyrus’ have let Miley run wild and she’s also homeschooled and on tour. So please explain to me why the Jolie Pitts end up in the line of fire ALL the time? Is it because they remind us all of what we could or should be doing? Oprah built a group of homes in NOLA and hasn’t said two words since…in and out and everyone raved! Brad is trying to rebuild communities…has a home there and has remained vigilant with Angelina by his and all haters can do is spew crap. Tom Cruise and his wife were in Shreveport LA while katie shot a movie and never once took a ride up to NO to see how they could help. Instead they bought ice cream and flew in Chicago deep dish pizza for cast members who had JOBS and nobody said sh*t about it. No they only have hate for 2 people who are trying live positive and raise their family in peace.

Love Angie, Brad and kids! Great family!

the nite vid.hhhmhmhhmh……connect them to ur plasma!even better!!aaahhhh.

So Proud of Brad & Angie. Way to go.

hey guys, watch how idiotic aniston is in her Burma PSA!

It looks like she is making fun of Burma, she wasnt serious at all! Its like she only wants to do something about it because thats what Woody Harrelson wants for him to get out from his trailer.

Im not sure what Jennifer is trying to show, but they are suppose to be playing themselves, but the way she acted, she seems clueless about Burma, and made a comedy out it, by saying to her yoga trainer to Free Burma, make it happen just for Woody to get out of his trailer and go back to set.

Her PSA is weird, compared to Will Ferrel, who is in fact a comedian and yet made a serious talk about Aung San Suu Kyi.

http://www.burmaitcantwait.org/burmaitcantwait/

Her idiotic fans are commenting she is funny, but why is she suppose to be funny? Its suppose to be serious stuff! And what is weirder, she is acting like RAchel Green!

# 91 ~~&~~ @ 05/02/2008 at 6:51 am

ROTFLMBAO. These tabs just won’t give up on the wedding that isn’t, will they? Now they’ve got Mariane as a bridesmaid…and James has gone from giving Angie away to bring Brad’s best man? Puh-leeze. These rags are just embarrassing themselves. Somebody make ‘em stop.

I would rather say that this is a list of who is the most influential people in USA for the moment LOL LOL!!! I am not sure if the rest of the world agree!

Glad that they are above Opera. Can’t stand Opera.

# 108 rachel green’s burma psa @ 05/02/2008 at 9:24 am

And what is weirder, she is acting like RAchel Green!

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

It’s not an act. She IS Rachel Green. She stopped being Jennifer Aniston about 12 years ago.

What is happening in Burma is a serious matter, people are being oppressed and Au san suu kyi has been imprisoned for years now. Aniston and Harrelson are total morons for making a comedy out of it!

~~&~~ @ 05/02/2008 at 6:51 am

Did you get enough sleep last night, that you are repeating some BS you read in a British tabloid? Never believe anything you read in a Brit tabloid. They’re worse than the National Enquirer.

If there is a wedding, you can bet your bottom dollar that Holly Goline will be Angelina’s maid of honor (as Angelina was for Holly), Brad’s brother will be his best man, James Haven will give his sister away, Jon Voight will not be in attendance, and the wedding will not take place on anyone’s zillion-dollar yacht.

Jill @ 05/02/2008 at 10:09 am

it is the same magazine who told they will have their baby in France,and in Allen’s ville,and guess what they were right.

these days it seems Tabs have alot of private information from JP’s household,I won’t be surprised If it is true also.

NEW thread

Congrats to Brad and Angie!!!!!
They’re a class by themselves. And by the way George Clooney is ranked at 71!!!!!!!

Honestly the deserve to be higher. They are a big influence around the world for positive. And I am an example.

I am surprised about Milley Cyrrus and Mariah Carey. I simply don’t understand… What kind of people is influenced by these girl? Not that I dislike them, but… what’s the important contribution they do to humankind? Tthere are lots of celebrities doing nothing but appearing on tv and that’s all…

# 108 rachel green’s burma psa @ 05/02/2008 at 9:24
You are right that psa was silly. Will’s was much better. Funny but also educational. X’s was just stupid. As if it was a SNL skit

yay for brangelina. i think being 21st is already really great. good for them. this is something that brangelina would actually care about

God, keep blessing and watching over the Jolie-Pitt family.

How these two people become one of the most powerful is beyond me. I guess they have to do something to try and get their careers back after all their indiscretions.
