Brad Pitt Pays Tribute To Bernie Mac

Brad Pitt Pays Tribute To Bernie Mac

Brad Pitt, George Clooney and other cast members of the Ocean’s trilogy have paid tribute to their co-star Bernie Mac, after his tragic death on Saturday.

Pitt said, “I lament the loss of a ferociously funny and hardcore family man. My thoughts are with Rhonda and their family. Bernie Mac, you are already missed.”

Clooney lamented, ”The world just got a little less funny. He will be dearly missed.”

Don Cheadle, who also starred in the Ocean’s films, added: “This is a very sad day for many of us who knew and loved Bernie. He brought so much joy to so many. He will be missed but heaven just got funnier.”

Samuel L Jackson, who costars with Mac in Soul Men (out later this year), said, “It goes without saying that Bernie was one of the pre-eminent comedians of our generation. He was also an attentive husband, a great father and loving grandfather. I feel blessed to have shared years of friendship with Bernie Mac, and I’m honored to have finally co-starred with him in what I consider to be his finest cinematic acting achievement.”

A beautiful man indeed. It’s awesome that a comedian can keep his stand up act clean it shows he was a genius.

If Poor Thing is any indication of what posts on FF, most of those people posting on there should have been drowned at birth.

What Brad said about Bernie was really sweet.

Hey Felinelilly how’s life? Hope all is well with you!

Hi Jill, Happy Sunday to you!

Good day Nelah here. Isaac Hayes Now. Complete Agreement 2 what Piper has said in her post. Another great loss..What can 1 say. Indeed tragic* I after the other. *sigh*. My best 2 his wife/family.

With friends as Brad Pitt*Don Cheadle*Samuel Jackson*many more old dear friends* says alot about Mr.Bernie Mac. & how he lived his life. Surrounded by people who thought he was as good as gold.

MB as far as his family* I immediately thought of them when I heard *his wife* 30 years* a dad * You Feel like youve been hit with Complete devastation. 50 is much 2 young. Nelah.
As the quote goes:

better headline - oceans cast pays tribute to bernie “i aint scared of you muthafcukers” mac.

Sheri, I posted an article I saw on Huffington Post. You can agree or disagree as you which it doesn’t matter to me. I thought it was an interesting read. Angie was talking about the surge and how now was the time to start thinking about the refugees that have been affected by the war.

She is not taking sides on the war. She is not defending the invasion or any aspect of the war. Her concern is the refugee as that is what her position with the UNHCR is about, refugees. So whatever your opinion is, is okay by me. Her oped piece was posted her at JJ’s. You might want to read it if you haven’t all ready. Peace

You can agree or disagree as you which it

Should read, as you wish. Peace

Somebody should ask the French team how they prefer their crow — roasted, fried or fricasseed. :)

Sad times for these wonderful icons. I hope Samuel Jackson has a speedy recovery. Too many have recently been tragically lost.

Sad times for the family and fans of these wonderful icons. I hope Samuel Jackson has a speedy recovery. Recently, too many have been tragically lost.
