OlderBrad Pitt’s Table for Two
Brad Pitt picks up a few pieces of contemporary “design art” furniture at the Design Miami/Basel fair held at the 1920s domed Markethalle in Basel, Switzerland on Tuesday.
The father-of-almost-six paid $293,000 for a hollow white marble rococo-style table by the Dutch designer Jeroen Verhoeven at the booth of the London-based Carpenters Workshop Gallery. The 4-foot-long “Cinderella Table,” from an edition of six, is hewn from a solid block of Carrara marble.
Mr. Pitt also ordered a rug made of aluminum thread from New York dealer Cristina Grajales, said director Elizabeth Murphy. The “Silver Sky” rug, created by Colombian designer Jorge Lizarazo and woven by the Colombian-based studio Hechizoo, will be priced at a rate of $175 per square foot.
Brad was also interested in a gold lacquer-coated Fiberglas sofa by Zaha Hadid, offered by London-based dealer Kenny Schachter at $300,000.
BTW, HAPPY BIRTHDAY, ANGELINA JOLIE! She turns 33 today.

So Why Can’t She Sniff a Gay Midget Dwarf?
Katie Holmes is moving to New York. Naturally, the GMD and Little Sci will be joining her. As you know, KatE is headed for Broadway to star in the production of All My Sons. Producer Eric Falkenstein says she is perfect for the part and promises her performance will blow people away.
He also said she’s able to pick out the fraud in a crowd:
“She’s a natural sweetheart who can sniff out phonies … Katie basically has that exact moral fiber [of her character in the play].”
Ummm…really?
If that’s the case, why can’t she smell a gay? Why’d she up and marry a gay?
New York will be home to the TomKat this fall. Which means now Victoria Beckham will have to find a reason to move there too.
==========================
poor Katie.
#160: jess0, you picked a great vocation. Good luck!
I think it’s great that you’ll be able to create and stamp your design then be able to view and have your creation live on for generations. I have a lot of respect for creative and productive people. They make the world a real interesting place.

Happy Birthday, Angie
I really love the table. It is very cool.
brad angie, mad, shi

Happy Birth day to my favorite STAR……ANGELINA and many more to come.
Just some thoughts
Brad’s eyes are so blue and beautiful
Brad has had a furniture/lamp collection since he started making good money. He spoke about it in an interview a number of years ago. The interviewer noted that Brad’s collection if sold on the open market would be worth millions. Brad said that he had so many chairs he would either have to sell some of them or open up a museum.
Lastly don’t assume Brad brought all those things for himself. Could be part of of Dubai designer job. Didn’t the article note that GRAFT and Brad would have input on the outside and inside? There is going to be a presentation soon which would probably include what type on furniture/art they want to put in the rooms
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANGELINA :)
I think she will give birth sometime in July,
#170 The real tita sometimes it’s hard to correct the notions of some trolls because they only believe what they want.And about the Religion instrutions you are correct about that.And yes they were both were raised by believers in Religion.
#183Carolina …Thanks for video.No wonder they carry the children.Thats a crowd in front of that store.
The table is pretty cool. It is an art piece. Stupid trolls have no taste. I wonder where they shop Ikea or Walmart.
Brad will always be cool even in his grave. This picture makes him look like a deer in headlights but maybe he was surprised by the photographer. But the man will always be sexy and cool. He can turn it on or off.
As for him being in Switz, what is the big deal? Angie is not one to hold someone down. She probably told him to get out of her hair for a bit. But that doesn’t mean he abandoned her or they are on the rocks. They are not attached at the hip.
I bet you he was back in her arms within a day or two because that is how they roll. They are just like that. Leave it alone stupid trolls you will never understand or have a relationship like that. I feel sooooooooooo sorry for you trolls, NOT.
Let’s not start on organized religion….(mafioso)…you don’t want me to go there with all due respect to the fans who are religious. Enough said.
Let me say again a very Happy Birthday to my girl, the baddest sexiest chick on the planet Ms. Angelina Jolie.
Brad buys an ugly table. Why bother when he claims they are nomads?
BTW Angelina is another one who claims to be 33. More like 38.
alia, isn’t your birthday this month?
Flowers arrive at the Miraval Chateau in France on Wednesday, just in time for Angelina Jolie’s 33rd birthday!
Before reaching the hands of the birthday baby momma-slash-actress, the bouquet was inspected by security officers.
A day prior, a truckload of fries and salad was brought to the estate. You know, Brangelina, fries aren’t really French.
Happy birthday, Angie! We hope the fries satisfied your pregnancy cravings!

Jolie confidants say ‘Entertainment Tonight’ knew source of Jolie birth story was fake
By DAVID BAUDER , Associated Press

NEW YORK - “Entertainment Tonight” aired a story about the birth of Angelina Jolie’s twins despite being repeatedly told beforehand that the report was based on information from someone impersonating Jolie’s assistant, according to documents and two people with knowledge of the exchange.
The celebrity newsmagazine denied Wednesday that it knew about an impostor before the broadcast. The identity of the impostor remained unknown.
On Friday morning, the show posted a story on its Web site and sent an e-mail alert to media outlets saying it had confirmed the birth of Jolie’s twins. The Associated Press picked up the report.
“Entertainment Tonight” did not name its source at the time. It later revealed that the report was based on e-mails from someone it thought was Jolie assistant Holly Goline.
Shortly after the story was posted but several hours before the broadcast aired, Goline told “Entertainment Tonight” that she was not the person with whom they had been corresponding, a person with direct knowledge of the conversation told The Associated Press. That account was confirmed by another person close to Jolie.
“‘Entertainment Tonight’ was told before the broadcast that their information came from an impostor,” said the second person. Both people spoke on condition of anonymity because they were not authorized to comment publicly.
The people said there were several conversations Friday, by e-mail, text message and telephone, between Goline and “Entertainment Tonight.” Meanwhile, the story was quickly challenged by several other celebrity news outlets.
The TV show stood by its story Friday night, with host Mary Hart saying on the air, “Just this morning, a source who says she was inside the delivery room tells us yes, the babies were born and yes, mother and babies are fine.”
Later that night, the manager of Jolie’s partner, Brad Pitt, told AP that the babies had not been born.
The show said in a statement Wednesday that it first learned of an impostor from a letter from Jolie’s attorney Monday - three days after the broadcast.
“‘Entertainment Tonight’ takes this very seriously and is, of course, concerned that the show may have been victimized by someone allegedly posing as a member of Ms. Jolie’s team,” the statement said. “We are actively investigating the matter and are reaching out to law enforcement agencies.”
The show has not mentioned the story on the air since the initial report, and the story has been deleted from its Web site.
The 27-year-old program is the top-rated entertainment newsmagazine on television, with an average nightly audience of 6.6 million viewers, more than double any competitors. The twins, who Jolie says are due in August, are one of the biggest stories of the year in celebrity journalism, with their first photographs expected to fetch at least $10 million. (The first pictures of Shiloh Jolie-Pitt reportedly fetched a $4 million donation to charity from People magazine.)
The mystery of who was sending the e-mail fit perfectly into the world of celebrity gossip, in which rumor and thirdhand sources coalesce into “facts” at the speed of the Internet. Even before the “Entertainment Tonight” report, there were international rumors of the twins’ birth, possibly started by an OK! magazine story that did not report the babies were born, but speculated on possible names.
According to an “ET” executive, the report of the twins’ birth began with Sharlette Hambrick, an “ET” producer. Hambrick told the show that she had obtained a BlackBerry e-mail address for Goline from a contact at CNN, according to the executive, who spoke on condition of anonymity because she was not authorized to release the information.
According to e-mails provided to AP by the show, Hambrick sent a message to the BlackBerry address asking for confirmation of “reports swirling” that Jolie had given birth.
The reply came back: “Yes she did. I was actually in the room with her. They are doing fine and so is mom.”
Goline has never had a BlackBerry e-mail account, one of the people with knowledge of the exchange said. Hambrick referred a call from The Associated Press to the show’s public relations representative.
Shortly after “Entertainment Tonight” posted the story, Hambrick called the real Goline seeking more details, and Goline told her verbally and through text messages that Hambrick had been dealing with an impostor, the people with knowledge of the exchange said.
E-mails obtained by AP show that Hambrick sent a message to Goline’s real e-mail address showing the exchange with the impostor, asking “Are you saying this is now not your e-mail address? That you did not send me these e-mails?”
Goline responded: “This is not my e-mail.”
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANGIE!!!!!!!
As for furniture, like the lamp.
Brad looks good to me!!!! Will gladly take him home.
As for how much money he drops–sure other celebs drop more esp. TC and Oprah. Oprah flies to LA from Chicago just to get her nails done! It is a shame that things that Brad and Angie do are blown out of portion. They spend money just like everyone esle. They work hard and have the right to spend their money on what they want. They give to others greatly.
Really get tired of reading the negs but learning to just ignore.
The Daily 10 said that Brad bought two chairs and a lamp. Did not say anything about the other furniture. They said he has a 35 room mansion to fill. He looked good in the pic.
Great article about Doug and Jamie. So glad they are working together. This is definitely the effect Angie and Brad has had on the family.
HAPPY BIRTHDAY ANGIE!!!!!!
