BTW tres jolie, why did you change your name? dumbazz, you are too obvious.
*******************************************************************************************
That’s Shitzy in one of her aliases. B*tch is probably dry-humping the radiator they keep her changed to and moaning Brad’s name. She’ll never forgive him for not knowing or caring that she exists.

PT,
I know you already know this so please bear with me. The thing about the marriage is that most of Angie’s fans are worldwide so a great majority of them are very traditional and conservative. So I’m thinking that is a reason alot of the fans are hoping for a marriage or wedding (especially with her kids). I know we here in the US don’t care too much about such BS piece of paper but you know I understand why fans harp on it so much.
++++++++++++++++
LOL, Aeon! I see the exact opposite. That fans around the world - especially in Europe - don’t understand why Americans make a such a big deal out of them getting married. I think it’s a particular rub to X fans because they KNOW X had to basically drag Brad to the alter. SHE was the one who wanted to get married. Angie? She’s been there, done that and doesn’t see it as the be-all-end-all of a relationship. Brad obviously feels that way, too. It’s not about the piece of paper, but the commitment. And sorry, but when you’ve got 6 kids with someone that’s a hell of a lot harder commitment to walk away from than a dog that wasn’t even yours and an over-priced house. Speaking of dogs…you know Brad had 2 dogs when he met X, right? Guess where Brad’s dogs lived after they got together? Yeah…the Los Feliz house that X wouldn’t live in because Putrid has once slept there. Insecure b#tch. Angie lives there and couldn’t give 2 shites if he shagged Putrid in every room AND on the pool deck. For all her Goddess Circle means to her, they sure as hell have never bought X any self-confidence. She’s STILL a neurotic mess. Only now she’s obsessing over Angie and Hannah freaking Montana along with her nose and leathery mug. I digress…I think I remember reading once where X said Norman didn’t get along with Brad’s doggies…so HIS dogs had to go… That should have been Brad’s clue to RUN!!!
Er…actually I digressed from my whole point…which was that I think more Americans are hung-up on the marriage issue than foreigners…
SUPREMELY CLASSY, IMMENSELY GORGEOUS & PARAMOUNTLY INTELLIGENT Manlesston to all her stupid followers :

Angie has said that Brad has changed her (and her life) in so many ways. Well this is one of those ways. After she did MMS it seems that so many great things happened in her life–beginning with Brad. God bless this generous couple and their beautiful ( inside and out) family.

ITAWY.
Who is Bonnie Fuller?
I just LOVE her! She is so wonderful! Beautiful and strong woman! The way she is living her life is simply amazing! Go girl!! Love from Czech Republic!

Why don’t you ask Jared? I don’t need to hide and i don’t suffer from mental problems like YOU.
And no, can’t lurk 24/7. I have a life. But while i’m working i do sometimes have an window with Jared open, like now. And in my breaks i come to laugh at your stupidity and insanity. You’re a crazy CLOWN :lol: :lol: :lol: :lol:
A poor thing with no life that spends her days in a blog about people she doesn’t even like, posting under different names, making up stories… it’s sad but at the same time hilarious, mostly because of the time and effort you put in to this.

No Mrs. Smith not Julia but the X. I was like how? and why? what?
Needless to say I can understand why Famous said this list is BS. But still Angie is on Top that is all I care about.
+++++++++++++++++
X wasn’t #2. Julia Roberts was. Which I can’t figure out because she hasn’t had a hit movie in a good 7 years! But…Reese’s last movie tanked so I can see why she dropped. JR’s last 2 movies to make any significant money were O11 and O12 - and she only had small roles in those 2 movies. You have to go all the way back to Erin Brockovich in 2002 to find a movie she played the lead in that made over $100MIL domestic, $200MIL worldwide. What does it say about JR that her 2 of the movies she made with major leading men didn’t even crack $70MIL domestic? The Mexican and Charlie Wilson’s War both did about $67MIL. And for that she’s the 2nd highest paid? Makes me wonder where Jodie Foster was on the list. They had Katherine Heigl at #5 and I saw a story not 6 months ago that her asking price was $6MIL per movie. So where are the other actresses who are supposedly part of the $10MIL club? Halle, Drew, Jodie Foster, Nic Kidman?
BTW - the Top 5 were Angie, JR, Reese, Cam Diaz and Katherine Heigl.

“ANGIE JO”. It’s your time to shine. Congratulations! I rarely comment on this site, but I would really love to see you guys married, if you are not already.
——-
I agree with the first part of your post. As for getting married… I don’t know. I have read several times how a couple ties the knot after a long time of successfully living together, and find that it doesn’t work. They suddenly feel pressured, fenced in or whatever, and have to split.
How about tying the knot just to please all the people who want them to, and then, soon after that, split to go on living together as before!!!
If they are already quietly married, just keep it quiet. It’s nobody’s business!
++++++++++++++++
Orchid -
That happened to a co-worker. She lived with this guy for like 8 years…he kept asking her to marry him. She finally relented. Not a year later she divorced him and said, “I knew I hadn’t married him for a reason! Now he thinks he OWNS me!” LOL. Apparently he thought marriage would be a way to control her. Like suddenly he’s the king of the castle and she’s some damned handmaid. She divorced him so fast his head spun. I believe her exact words to me were, “Fcuk this shite!” Damn…that was funny. At least it was to us…not so much for him…

There! Another live-together-first-and-then-get-married failure. B&A should do what THEY want and not listen to people.
Is Changeling still showing in most theaters? I can’t find it in my small town?

I looove weddings and I’m kind of traditional too, but what matters is what works for them, not for others.
Also, why do you call the kids herkids? Aren’t they their kids?
OMG! She is so powerful. She obviously nows just how to control the Hollywood powers that be with her bewty and presence. I bet her knees are saw though. GBTJP!!!

Angelina Jolie tops actress salary list
Fri Dec 5, 2008 7:00pm EST
By Alex Dobuzinskis
LOS ANGELES (Reuters) - Oscar-winner Angelina Jolie has proven again how handsomely it pays to combine gun-wielding action with serious roles, as she topped The Hollywood Reporter’s list of highest-earning actresses on Friday.
But salaries are plummeting for top actresses and still lag the earnings of leading men, the trade paper said.
Jolie, 33, earned $15 million for the action movie “Wanted” this year and she could make $20 million to star in a possible sequel, it said.
Jolie played dramatic roles in 2007’s “A Mighty Heart” and in this year’s “Changeling.” The mother of six and partner of actor Brad Pitt last month talked about eventually fading away from acting to spend more time with her family.
Oscar winner Julia Roberts, 41, claimed the No. 2 spot after a long absence from the screen, making more than $15 million for “Duplicity,” which comes out next year.
Actors are also earning less, with the exception of Will Smith, star of blockbusters “Hancock” and “I Am Legend,” who is riding high with up to $25 million per movie.
“Everyone else’s prices have gone down,” an unidentified talent agent told The Hollywood Reporter.
Reese Witherspoon, 32, who topped the female list last year after winning an Oscar for her role in the 2005 movie “Walk the Line,” dropped to No. 3. She earned $14 million for appearing in the comedy hit “Four Christmases” that opened last week.
Cameron Diaz, Katherine Heigl, Kate Hudson, Anne Hathaway and Jennifer Aniston rounded out the list, with 39-year-old “Friends” star Aniston earning more than $8 million for the comedy “Marley & Me” opening on Christmas Day.
Big stars such as Halle Berry and Nicole Kidman — both Oscar winners — are no longer able to earn $10 million a movie.
Compare that with Pitt and Johnny Depp, who according to The Hollywood Reporter make between $15 million and $20 million per film
Great news. Congrats to Angelina for being the #1 paid actress and landing very high on the woman’s power list.
Lots of threads and great posts thanks to all of the JP Fans.
Jared Thank you for keeping us in the know.
To ? poster there are tons of posts about the movie Changeling right here on this thread. How much money it is drawing in as well as the wonderful articles about the film. A film well worth seeing.
Angie was powerful in this Eastwood film and would love to see her win an oscar altho have stopped believing in the fairness of Oscar noms along time ago. Angie truly does deserve an oscar tho but will wait and see. The film Changeling should not be difficult to find at theaters as is now worldwide. If it is not at your theater yet..it will be.
Give it time. Again a movie not to be missed ..a true stroy at its best.
Bravo Angie ! #1 Actress…Can’t beat that!
…..and as we see in her recent promotions of her dog movie, Aniston can thank Angelina (& Brad) for the association (COATTAIL) with them that got her the dog movie money, because everyone in Hollywood KNOWS they are buying Maniston and all her ‘Brangelina Bermuda Triangle,’ goodness when they hire her - if she didn’t have that, she wouldn’t get paid sh*t. lol Hence, THAT is why she can’t and won’t shut up about Angelina or Brad - it was probably in the contract Huvane negotiated. ‘Look, did you see how The BreakUp did, the Jen hens wanted to support Aniston in her fake PR relationship with Vaughn, they were hoping he’d supplant Brad as her new Prince Charming, they played a coy game of ‘are they or aren’t they?’ for almost a year or more….hire Jen, and we’ll start it all up AGAIN, just like it’s 2005 again to get butts in seats!’ Believe me, a Tate Donovan dumping wouldn’t have done this much for her. LOLOL
Universal and Working Title refused to let their screen adaptation of the Brit mini-series State of Play fall apart just before the writers’ strike when Brad Pitt insisted on rewrites. So director Kevin Macdonald (The Last King of Scotland) recast Pitt’s role with Russell Crowe, already working in-house on Nottingham (which was eventually pushed back anyway) and Ben Affleck in the Edward Norton role. Word is, the on-set chemistry was not ideal. While Crowe is never easy, he and Affleck were supposed to be playing best friends, and they couldn’t stand each other. Poor Macdonald had his hands full. It remains to be seen whether their on-set chill will negatively impact their performances. State of Play is due in April, 2009.

Bwahahahahaha! Katherine Heigl and Anne Hathaway, relative newbies, make more money than Aniston????
Oh… how I long for a Nelson Muntz emoticon…
On E! News, Peecrust, pointedly, acknowledged that Puppethead DiPandi will be covering the BB premiere; clearly, the b*tch is still on the $h*tlist.
Some advice… no one would know that you were Ueckered if you didn’t broadcast it constantly.
When will Peecrust and ___ find their way into each others’ arms? They can console each other over being scorned by William Bradley.
HA - HA!!
Praise Angelina!! All her fans are on their knees praising Angelina! Woo Hoo!

Thanks for the link. I was put in moderation, so here goes again. It is about time people in the media call out poor eternal victim Whiny. Whiny has milked that victim role for all its worth. However, what worked 4 years ago, do not work today. People have their own set of problems and do not have time to read a whiny narcissistic ex-sitcom star whine about her over privileged life. The only victim in this triangle is AJ. I admire AJ strength, committed to her Partner and Children and conviction to her causes. A lesser woman would have buckle under the intense media smears and lies. Poor Victim Whiny X has whined her last whine. However, her rabid hens, paid trolls and PR mastermind will continue to prop her up.

i love love this article even if it is by bonnie fuller,lol,read the part about brad never mentioning aniston’s name,been saying that the last few months-
Shut Up, Jen! Why Won’t Aniston Stop Dissing Angelina and the Media?
++++++++++++++++
ROTFLMAO. Bonnie has a helluva nerve. If SHE hadn’t spent 10 years perpetuating X’s lies in all of the rags she’s edited she wouldn’t now have to tell X to stop complaining about the media…or Angie for that matter. Fuller got rich off x’s bullshit. Now that she’s out of a job and can’t financially benefit from X’s BS…all of a sudden she wants X to shut up. The irony here is that Brad hates, loathes and despises Bonnie Fuller…yet Bonnie ever so nicely pointed out that Brad never mentions X’s name. LOL! It’s not like she doesn’t know Brad hates her guts. It’s just too bad that she didn’t have the chutzpah to make this call when she was editing Star or US…then again, it probably would have gotten her fired because the bottomline is to sell mags and their target audience doesn’t want to hear that America’s Sweetheart is a big ass fraud and a fameho…
