Big Apple Brad On Business

Thanks JJ! I don't care what anyone says - he is still HOT! I loved that picture of him carrying a sleeping Maddox - too cute! Luv BAMZ+1

yes I agree he is hot and I think people often forget he is 42 not 20 like many hollywood hunks, so there's that too... He looks yummy!

I loved they way they worded the article:

"Brad Pitt, 42, left his family in France."

and

"Angelina Jolie, 30, and their two children,

Even the paparazzo are starting to see them as a family. I like that. Brad looks so happy! AND HOT!! (I agree).

He probably didn't realize how much he'd miss them, but I'm sure he does now.

Oh Jeesh he looks bad. Getting fat in the face! He always morphs into who ever his girlfriend/wife is. So they can be twins. Doesn't say much for Jolie. He looked the best when he was with Jennifer, he ex-wife. Admit it it's true.

Unflattering pics but he has to make sure he gets all the attention he needs. Don't believe . Read:

Oh my look the troll is back!!!

tsts just go way...you're too much!!! LOL!!!!

Man, I have never seen him look so bad. Ever since he has been with Angelina he looks like crap. And all they freaking wear is black...He looks awful and I pray to God they do not last. They both did a shitty thing....

hey tsts! r u dr? fucked off!! @*&#$%cker!!

FUCK OFF. Jesus, I was just giving my opinion...Get a fucking life Sam....and you know what. SHIT ON YOUR FACE TOO...You are really sad....

Oh come on you guys write a novel about how good looking he is when you KNOW he's looking like the cheating dog he is! It's showing on his face. Yep! What has that witch done to him?

You trolls have short memories. Brad didn't always look good when he was with Jennifer. You think he suddenly had this scruffy or grungy look? Check out his fan sites with archives of even his premieres (when he was supposed to be scrubbed up) out with Jennifer and he didn't always look hot. Even when he wasn't growing out that Rip Van Winkle beard for Foutainhead, he sometimes wore his hair long or kept a lot of facial hair.

His best in my mind was when he was in MAMS with the set costumer fitting him into those styish, sharp fitting clothes, and he was well-groomed.

As for his disregard for what he wears, I say more power to him that he's lost any pretensions about the clothes making the man (though that may sound contradictory of how I think he looks, bottom line, appearance is secondary to the character of a person to me). The fact that he's worth millions and not care a whit adds more of an appeal of being grounded and down-to-earth.

That London hotel article is pure pot-stirring, making a mountain out of a molehill. Those restaurant patrons would still be carping about the delays and crowding the paparazzis would have caused even if Brad and Angie left at any other exit. Get serious. Regardless of any exit, their car would have to be driven in the streets around that hotel. Unless there was some underground access, both of them would have still had to exit into a public access street where the paparazzis would have ran over to get to them. The paps were no doubt camping by the hotel ready for them regardless of whichever exit they took.

Sounds more like annoyed patrons bitching than a legit investigation of Brad and Angie seeking publicity.

the lying cheat is fugly.......... KARMA! LOLOlolololololololoolollollloololol

Tstst, and the rest of the trolls even at his worst Brad will still look better than VV.Brad still looks hot,the dark hair does make him look a bit washed out,but even with that you can see he is a good looking man.I don't understand why you people keep going on on about how he looks?The man will dye his hair back whenever he finishs his reshoots.This is perfect example of how the chins fans are shallow.That all you have at the moment pick on how Brad looks,give me a break.

Like Jennifer's karma of her film flops and her being with a man not only with a reputation of digging one night stands but basically a jerk. Both of them are drowing themselves in booze and smoking. Karma is biting Jennifer in the arse.

Looks like Brad is doing might fine himself.

he is looking a bit puffy in the face. he is still HOT!! he will ALWAYS BE HOT!!!he has been getting, all that good lovin, from angie!! is this the first time, they have been seperated since, the pregnancy announcement? hope he makes a sideline trip, to visit his folks.. i bet the kids, miss their daddy, so does, their mom.................rica, where is the next chapter?!!!!!!!!!!

nope, sorry jenn is finally free to have fun.....yeehah!

nope! sorry, BUT jenn is finally free to have fun.....yeehah!

I'm picking on how he looks cause he looks like a cheating dog! And he better hurry up and dye that hair back.... god. He looks terrible with dark hair and sideburns. I don't care what he wears either but he needs to lay off the french food. Too many croissants. mawhaaaaaaaaa

Alright Cindy2!! You go girl!!!
I second that!!!

To: tsts and your little troll mates, Poppy and Jaime

Were does it say that because you're worth millions that there is a set way to act, dress, look or raise your kids? Brad and Angelina are entitled to wear what ever they want. They prefer comfortable to nonstop chic. I applaud them. When you are carting around children you rarely dress in Versace or Armani. We know that they own these types of outfits, because we've seen them wear them; usually in conjunction with work.

Why are they not allowed to dress as they please when not working. Do you wear your work attire at home or out to the park to play with the kids?

The fact that they don't feel the need to primp and preen before stepping foot outside their door tells you that they are confident and self assured. Would you be happy if all they did look sharp, shop, left the kids behind with the nanny, or pampered themselves constantly? No because then you’d be complaining about how selfish and self-serving they were. So why not just stop it? No matter what these two do or look like you will just HAVE to find something to b*tch about. So why not take your b*tch-like opinion to a forum that is conducive to such callous thoughts. Because come on if we went to the site you’re a fan of. You and all your overzealous little troll-like swarm mates would jump all over us, but with a lot less class.

'Life' is not all about looks. ‘Work' may be sometimes.

The difference is, Brad and Angelina know the difference and know what actually counts.

Bamz fans ingore the trolls.They are upset because they know the chin has lost out.If they really thought she was better off without Brad they wouldn't be trolling every site and posting vulgar and vile comments about Bamz,it's eating them up.when I see pictures of the chin on sites I have no desire to spend the day writing posts about how fugly she is ,and mind you I do think that she is fugly,I pass her pictures because I COULD CARE LESS ABOUT HER.So all this shows is that these people can't let go and move on.Why don't you Ja fan's go to her web site and talk about her and VV.

There are PLENTY of men in their 40s and older who look much more handsome than this.

Sometimes people will purposely look worse bcause they are sick and tired of the stares, harassment or in a celebritiy's case, the stalkarazzi.

I don't think celebrities, of all people, should care what people think of their looks (except for professional reasons), but atleast try to look somewhat nice. Brad looks horrible as he gets older. But these photos of him are the worst. He's got some fat under the chin (which alot of people have, I know), and wrinkles around the eyes (which is normal, but get some restylane for that), and so forth. But Brad is really losing his sex appeal. He is so unnattractive.

I mean, maybe the guys from Queer Eye for the Straight Guy should give him some tips on taking care of his face and skin and style. Ugh! He looks AWFUL!!!! What does Angelina SEE in him?

Living in California I see PLENTY of celebrities without looking well groomed and no makeup, including older celebrity guys like Brad, and they look GREAT. So Brad, come on, you are losin it.

I am convinced that there are individuals who naturally look for the worst or what is wrong about anything and anyone. You know, the glass half full or half empty. That inclination can be re-inforced to one degree or another by environment.

I think some of you forget that we getg so used to seeing pictures of "stars" that are so air-brushed that when we see real photos we automatically want to photoshop them. Just so a photo or J-lo as is and then saw a photo from the dolce show and it looks like a different person.
Have some of you considered that perhaps Brad's hair has gotten darker with age and he just would rather not do anything? I am sure that he and Jen had a deluxe tanning machine. something that is not a priority for Angie ...A tan goes a lonnng way towards making one look better.

I think you all need to read Cindy2 previous post... Why should he dress up? To attract who?
In studies done. it has been shown that men dress to impress women as women are more label savy (as a rule) and women dress to impress other women. When you have nothing to prove or no one to impress an individual dresses for comfort.
Some of you might want to consider this thought..perhaps what brought Brad and Angie together is that they were able to look at each other in a way no one had done before... Not for what their eyes told them but for what their heart told them about each other. Doesn't everyone want to find someone who loves for the right reasons? Not the movie star the tabloids feature and write about but the essence of the person you are. With enough money one can buy outward beauty... But who you are as an individual is all about to you. Brad and Angie are both decent people who have learned that there is more to life than fame and fortune and themselves. A life without purpose is not a life fully lived.

ignore the haters please! lets just go back to luvin the family! ignore them and they'll go away, kinda like we hope manniston will!

LOU, what the hell is your PROBLEM?? People reserve the right to criticize ALL THEY DAMN WELL PLEASE.

If you have a PROBLEM with it, go take some sedative to CALM YOURSELF DOWN!

What an idiot!

It's a frickin blog. People have the right to say whatever they want. If you have problem with it, then create your own blog.

These nasty fans are definitely going to ruin Brad and Angelina's reputation, not their critics.

Talk about psycho. We're criticzing celebrities , not other people. So, don't go around insulting people you don't know. We're fans just as much as you are. Celebrities talk about their lives in public, so people WILL comment! GET OVER IT!

Brad and Angelina don't give two cents about people like you.

why are you guys even acknowledging the posts of those who you accuse of being trolls? why are you allowing them to bait you? ignore them, and they will either continue even though ignored, or they'll move on because they're being ignored. just shine them on, don't give them your time.

Elena's another psycho. This is not a FAN site! This is a BLOG!

God Elana! I've missed your mind lol. I'm not here much anymore, and I happened to pop in and I see your name and decided to say hello. Hope is well. Take care...

Brad is not loosing it! You all haters just say that cause you can't stand it he's getting so much publicity and your "stars" get nothing compared to him. He's going to look washed out
cause there are so many camera flashes snapping at him all at once.....how can anyone even see with all that flashing going
on? Did you ever stop to think maybe he's doing it on purpose so people will get sick of photographing them cause their
fashion and attire is NOT supporting any big fashion designers or corporate sponsors? Give me break...what Angelina sees is a man who doesn't give a rats A$$ about "face & skin and fashion" Thank God hollywood still has some "REAL" people who care more about real issues than sufficing judgemental nobody fans like most of you trolls and haters. You make such fools out of yourselves in a public forum. Sahllow objectivity in it's highest form.
BRAD ROCKS. He is sexy and handsome and is aging beautifully. Like him so much better now as the person who
has meaning and substance in his life vs. abusing substances like JA & her poor key chain VV.

Not bad after a 8 hour flight, jet lag, traveling to different cities the past month and keeping a romance going with the love of his life and mother of his children. I know I looked jacked up when I arrive in Paris (usually it's early in the morning from NYC) LOL!

Brad is now a FAMILY man. That means lots of sleep deprivation. I'ts about having good looking days and some bad ones. It's all about putting yourself second and family first. Go ahead Brad handle your business.

Elena loved your post.I was just thinking where is Elena.Good to hear from you,I hope everything is well in your life.

welcome haters and lovers!!! here we go again!!!...as lou said, bamz+1 supporters, leave the haters alone, just keep lovin the bamz+1 family...if d call us trolls for loving this family. thank u very much!! these untrolls are so unhappy and so envious, and so jealous, so why pay attention to them...just ignore them and enjoy watching the expanding family of bamz!!! cheers!!!

This site is beginning to look like PerezHilton.
We started this thread with how nice some of us feel Brad looks and in came the negative opinions. You know what that's fine but do you have to get so nasty and mean about it?

I agree with Mija288, Cindy2 and Elena, just ignore the nasty post and continue the positive vibe that beagan the thread.

He probably didn't realize how much he'd miss them, but I'm sure he does now.

OMG please..............10 hours flying, jet lag, 6 hours of difference between paris and New York....the man looks very good but tired.

Not surprising that Aniston is not smart enough to see she is being used as a freak show at the Oscars. Everyone knows why they asked her to present, and no its not because of her acting talent or her contribution to the arts or anyone for that matter. She's being used because people want to gawk and whisper - God you'd think she'd have figured at least that out.....buy hey - she let Brad go and we all know how a stupid that was....

all jens rabid dog fans are like jen the fugly chin!!!plssssssss pity me vince...fuck my ass to ease my constipation and painnnn ooh!! that's so nice....ewww whats dat??? it's ur penis or testes...so much small!! u need to do yoga and running to keep fit vince...ican't feel IT..just ur ball!! u bitch...who do u think u r?? just a has been and nobody cares about u w/o my buddy bradley...im' just w/ u chin as a favor for bradley...and he's right for living your toomuch chin and fugly ass....ur chin hurts my balls when u suck my pen*$%...so don't complain about mine..bitch!!

So you're saying that other celebrities and normal people don't have families, no sleep, and jet lag? So what? You can still keep yourself looking a little better or avoid looking so horrible.

Horsewrangler,I agree I like Brad better now to.The superficial crap is gone.The man is 42 years old now not 30,and he still looks damm good.Being a family man has made him even sexier.

sorry bamz+1 supporters...i don't want to make this site like perezhilton but oooh i just want to strangle these hypocrites fugly jens..if d want nasty comments...i'll give them nasty but i will control myself!! i apologize to bamz+1 supporters and lovers but never to the fugly chins fanatics!!

SAM PROVES HOW BRANGELINA FANS ARE PSYCHOS, SICKOS, CLASSLESS, DIRTY, DISGUSTING, PATHETIC, PHOTO STALKERS AND NEED TO GET EDUCATED.

THANK YOU sam for proving my point!

hey trolls. he looks always better then Jen.A.
now and forever. without him she looks just normal.

Oh Sam you are so well spoken, so obviously well educated. We need more people with your brains in the world. God - unbelievable.

The way someone looks is a matter of opinion.
I'd rather see Brad looking more he-man than girly man. Angelina is well known not to give a hoot about how someone looks. We all know that. That must be a relief to Brad. There are more important things to take care of first.

Brad can and will dress up and do all the metrosexual things that up & coming men in Hollywood do. But only hen the occasion calls for it and on his terms, he's already established.

The black hair was for reshoots of Jessie James which I think just wrapped. Photos show his natural color growing out.

DAMN, BRAD LOOKS UGLY! The cheating bastard needs to die his hair back to blonde and get back with Jen A. when he looked so much better and happier.

Gee Sam...... don't need to go that far. Everybody has a right to an opinion but that's taking it to the gutter of the human mind in a click. Really not necessary. Not everyone posting
about Brads look necessarily have to be Jen fans either. What's the war about anyway. Who's celeb is better in a divorce that is well over? Most people don't really care about that anymore.
I agree with horsewrangler, there are lots of lights falshing in Brads face casting shadows. I am not a hater of any "side". If Jen and VV are happy partying and doing the Hollywood thing then so be it. The divorce is over so can we move on?
The Pitt-Jolie family are beautiful and refreshing. Thanks JJ for the pics.

HERE, HERE! JADE COULD NOT HAVE SAID IT ANY BETTER.

beauty is definitely in the eye of the beholder...I think brad actually looks BETTER as he gets older. I thought he was just another pretty faced new boy toy celeb when he started out...now as he ages, he has more maturity and the few wrinkles he has now gives him character...i don't know...take what you want from this post...but he looks pretty good to me...though a little heavier..am i right or was that just a bad shot?

Beautifully said Jade.

I liked both JA and AJ but ever since Jen did Oprah and Larry King I have lost respect for her...she is so needy and whiny. Her only goal is for everyone to boo hoo along with her. No thanks. Brad and Anj. are so wonderful to watch - Jen will very soon have no one to whine to not to mention no more movie roles - Hollywood can't afford to keep losing money with her.

BRAD IS A HUNK OF MAN AND POWER! HE IS SO BEAUTIFUL. LOVE HIm LOVE HIM LOVE HIM. It doesn't matter who he is with. He is his own man and not afraid to live it. He is who he is regardless of what woman he is having a relationship with. They benefit more having him then he benefits being with them. Jolie is a much better suited for him personally though. Jen fans why are you so mad Jen is with Vince Vaughn? Don't you think he's sexy and cute? Do you think she made a bad choice and have to take it out on Brad cause you know he is so much HOTTER than him? What's up with you all? And Sam you need to get laid or something.

close up: looks very tired...jet lag...but beautiful...the hat is terrible.

I agree, Tandem - bad shot. I like him better now. He is much beefier than he was in Themla and Louise - WAY better looking as he gets older.

.............brad needs to sleep 8 hours

What does it matter how Brad looks or that he is wearing the same style clothes most of the time.
What does matter is he wanted kids, and he has 3. He wanted a partner who believes in and understand his causes. By all appearances the man is on top of the world. In the most recent pictures, Brad has a genuine smile on his face, not a plastic/practiced smile.
He could look like Magu for all I care as long as he is happy, and doing what he thinks is best for him. No matter how many times, certain people want to post hateful comments. He is still a multimillionaire. Has a kind hearted woman, who happens to be quite sexy, and 2 of the cutest kids.

Hate on, Hate on.

why jenn fans are so obsessed with brad and him aspect? worry about jenn and vince...

I think he's wearing the hat because his hair is growing out and you can see his light roots growing in.

He's looks ugly?! I hadn't noticed! He just looks like a cool Dad to me.

Keeping perspective, he was spending time earlier in the day with his son while Angelina was doing a photo shoot. Then he hops on a trans-Atlantic flight. I don't think he's looking his best in these photos, but he looks good. I really don't think he's going to lose that hat any time soon as he may be allowing his natural hair color to grow out.

If Aniston gets a standing ovation at the Oscars I am going to UPCHUCK!!! No talent - fat thighs - no Brad - gee what else could a girl wish for?

I think he's wearing the hat because his hair is growing out and you can see his light roots growing in.......uhmmmmmmmmmmmmmwhy brad does not dye the hair already?

The fact is you people can’t get over the fact that people actually have criticisms of Brad and Angelina. So, you wanna call us “haters” or “Jen A” fans.

Did it ever occur to you, that there are actually alot of people out there who do not hate these people, and that they are just voicing their opinions on what is normally an unacceptable situation or what is APPARENT?

You want to make up excuses for it, so you say we “hate” or that we care more about the other person.

You are so blindsighted and immature.

If you have a problem with people criticizing celebs you don’t even know, then go create your own fan site. This is a blog.

I prefer his hair dark - do you think the curtain matches the bedspread????

I think you're right Anonymous. He looovvves that hat! Haha! That's cool. I also agree that he's keeping it more real with his looks for several reasons; 1)Paps are dogging their every move and they want to discourage them 2)Kids require their attention more 3)I don't think Angelina cares much and bottom line 4)His priorities have changed. He still looks Hot to me, more like a man, less like a pretty boy. I think someone said previously a man holding a baby is sexy to me. Me too!

I prefer his hair dark - do you think the curtain matches the bedspread????

Anonymous and Anon. Hmmm. Same person?

Anonymous and Anon. Hmmm. Same person?................no

Nope - I'm anonymous but not anon, Lily. I can swear that on beautiful Madd'd head.

JC, Yes you are entitled to your opinions. But, you should know by now that the majority of posters here are BAMZ supporters. You and I both know that if we were to go to JA supported site like 'femalefirst' and criticized JA that we would be slammed against the wall. Don't act surprised when you and other haters get slammed here. And yes, your criticisms ARE the same as hating when ALL the comments you ever have are always negative. So don't BS me.

I'm sorry but these new pics of Brad are just awful.

It's funny how Anon all of a sudden shows up when I do, since he/she was on my case before on another blog. So, I wouldn't be surprised if he or she is hiding as one of the others on this blog... watching... watching away. Poor losers. So pathetic. How dumb.

Ah now you're telling on yourself. That means you make a habit of spreading your 'JOY' around? And it was me because 'anon' was used? Boy are you paranoid. I would if I could but I don't have time! HaHa!

I love how Brad is showing his package with his tight ass jeans...yummy. He is so sexy now since he drop kicked Aniston out of his life...and how do we know this because "big mouth" told on herself. What a fool! I would never, ever put myself in the weak position when Brad set her up in a strong light. I would've been lying though my teeth but i'd would have said..."You know it just didn't work out and we tried very hard but we grew apart. I know he wish me well, like I do him because when you love someone even when it doesn't work out...you still need to celebrate that. Our goals change and that's life... No matter what happened I was Mrs. Jennifer Pitt and that an experience I glad to have...blah, blah, blah

That called keeping your power and killing with class, grace and kindness. She would had have them under her thumb forever. Now people thing Jen is a lying needy bitch who didn't want a family and can't do anything but whine because she has no talent.

Also, I find it fascinating that most rabid Jen fans wont buy a ticket to her crappy movies or help her fansites...so come on over and help make BAMZ international star because your interest in them helps too....hehehehe

Well, if you slam us then we'll slam you!

LET THE WAR BEGIN.

I'll start off by saying that BAMZ sucks!
Maddox looked like a FREAK in his makeup & mohawk. Angelina must be wearing some BOTOX since her face looks frozen with the same mean look all the time.
And Brad is just ugly.
And poor Zahara, she'll take after her mother as another whore. Let's hope Brad doesn't turn into Woody Allen, like with Mia Farrow's kids, since Angelina is sure to adopt some asian girl in there for Brad to screw.

RIGHT ON! BAMZ DOES SUCK!

Anonymous | February 24, 2006 02:47 PM you're hilarious!! I agree. I fear that JA will get a standing ovation or some kind of extra long applause at the oscars.....if so, they need to do the same for BAMZ...talk about scrutiny.

"Well, if you slam us then we'll slam you!

LET THE WAR BEGIN." Big Yawn. Boring.

Crybaby, I do believe you are right! I do think they find us more interesting than Aniston and what was his name? Welcome Aboard BAMZ newbies! Everything you say will be taken to mean that you really like it over here, since well, you are here!

I feel bad for Brad and Angelina that their fans have to reduce Brangelina to be hated. You're the only ones ruining their reputation by saying those things and insulting both other critics and fans and Jen A. You're the ones who are making others hate Brangelina.

In fact, I wonder if this isn't some sort of a publicity stunt to make Brangelina look worse and make Jen A. look even more innocent.

Cause you nasty fans make Brangelina look even meaner.

I haven't slam anyone writing a post here. I'm just giving out facts that the haters of BAMZ are helping them too because you are on an BAMZ story and it show interest on this couple. The more hits on their stories help them. Now compare the Aniston stories most people don't give a crap and there is less hits. Which mean she is not that popular anymore....With all the crappy movies and "pity parties" she gave, it has turned people off her. And help BAMZ...I think Brad and Angie are soulmates and their family is so cute. I just love them and wish them well...I notice that more people are falling in love with them too and want to see Pitt's dreams of having a family come true too.

Since I don't care for Aniston, I wont do anything to help her cause including posting on her fansite or on any site the feature her story because I don't want to help her cause by how many hits it got....So I welcome the haters because their hits helps BAMZ...keep up the good works by helping the BAMZ cause with increasing the hits.

crybabyaniston: That was great! I never really thought about that. HAHAHA!

Hey thanks, yeah. If she gets a standing ovation I will lose respect for all involved. What the hell has Aniston done lately: that has meaning? except perhaps HER NAILS?????

I was never a fan of Jen's before. But now I am.

Crybaby, You are on the money! I never bother going to JA sites and stating my opinions. A waste of time and good hits!

Wow, Brangelina fans suck.

Lou and company, let me hope your Friday hasn't been ruined an inch by some of the mean-spirited posts above...

Let me wish you a happy weekend and whatever weather you get tomorrow, don't forget Jared's up 24/7 to bring the next BAMZ news (and lovely photos, of course)! Thanks, JJ!

This isn't a Brangelina fan site. This a blog with plenty of other celebrity blogs on it. So, we can say what we want about the awful pair. Sorry. But you have to put up with it. Turning away people who disagree with their relationship isn't going to help. And if you want to get personal and insult people, then it's more success for Jen.

Keep it up. You're doing Jen's fans a favor. Maybe you're falling for what they want you to do.

I personally don't have a problem with it. I think the more you post mean things about Jen and her fans or non-fans, the more people will realize what an ugly pair Brangelina is.

Remember President Bush election? People said some pretty nasty things back and forth against Bush, and to people's surprise, Bush won. Kerry's voters managed to piss off alot of people and Bush ended up winning just because of the nasty words that Kerry's voters reiterated to the public.

You're the ones who are making it nasty.

Well, here's the problem: NO ONE (not even you) knows what happened between Brad and Jennifer. No one. That said, why get so worked up over something you don't have a definitive answer for? You (and the tabloids) can insinuate all you want; it still isn't fact. The only facts I care about are 1) Brad is with Angelina; 2) Brad is the father of those children; 3) Brad and Angelina are going to have a baby together; and 4) these two are committed to raising their children together. They are a family.

BTW: I'm posted as Anonymous 2:41. I forgot to put my name on the post. Sorry for the confusion.

You know, the Hollywood standard, for being as thin as you possibly can, not only applies to women but to men as well. To me Brad looks good here, beefier but not an ounce of fat. However, if you compare it to earlier pictures of him you can tell that his face is a little fuller. Looking closer you can see where he may have been a little bit too thin back then. He looks a bit more healthier, weight wise, now. Also, I heard that he may have stopped smoking. Smoking keeps your weight down a bit also.

WHAT A DUMB POLITICAL ANALYSIS....

Well I know "Anonymous" means you forgot to put your name or you can still type "Anonymous" as your name. I just don;t think it's a coincedence that "Anon" happens to start posting following "JC" in this blog (which he/she did in the other blog) and that he/she was already here, but chose to change or use their name here when they saw me.

Brangelina fans are crazy.

Brad doesn't look as good as he once did??? I didn't know he was supposed to. I think it's called AGING!! Perhaps he has much more important things to worry about, like his CHILDREN!!! No wonder plastic surgery is on the rise.

My mother was once a very beautiful woman who was very critical of others. She is now 63 year old woman with wrinkles and fat and she is a very nasty, bitter old woman. She completely isolates herself. Welcome to your future haters!!

Brad looks good. I'm not as old as Brad but I'm getting there. I have had to put on weight in the past couple years to get people to quit complaining I look gaunt. I don't have any wrinkles yet but if I was thinner I'm sure I would. I don't think he looks fat at all. He looks fine. California is a totally different culture onto itself. Some stars leave intentionally just so they can let their hair down so to speak and be able to live like the rest of do.

Elena [February 24, 2006 01:21 PM]....Good point. I am totally at a place in my life with myself that I very much want to find someone who I love and who loves me for the right reasons. Someone that appreciates my values and desires and wants them to be a part of a shared life they are looking for. It's my opinion Brad and Angelina hooked up because they got to know each other and realized they both want to be a family and share the same path together.

As an aside and off topic: I hope JA does better at the Oscars than she did on the hurricane katrina relief show. She didn't come off very polished but of course that was not a rehearsed program. So I'm sure she won't seem as nervous or be tripping over the words the teleprompter is feeding her.

LOL. Jennifer cheated on Brad WAY before he met AJ and he is too much of a man to make her look like crap. It is all going to come out in the end. Promise

You can call it "dumb" all you want but everyone knows thats what happened. Even Kerry voters admitted publicly that their nasty comments against Bush contributed to Kerry's downfall. It made Kerry look bad and Bush look better. It's just unprofessional, and in the tradition of politics, you just don't get nasty like that.

And same goes for blogs like these wear one man's war of words can contribute to his downfall.

This fan is crazy too: LET THE WAR BEGIN.

I'll start off by saying that BAMZ sucks!
Maddox looked like a FREAK in his makeup & mohawk. Angelina must be wearing some BOTOX since her face looks frozen with the same mean look all the time.
And Brad is just ugly.
And poor Zahara, she'll take after her mother as another whore. Let's hope Brad doesn't turn into Woody Allen, like with Mia Farrow's kids, since Angelina is sure to adopt some asian girl in there for Brad to screw.

OK - who did Miss Aniston-can't-live-without-a-tan-or-her-hairdresser, cheat with when married to Bradelicious? I have never heard this one before.

"It's just unprofessional, and in the tradition of politics, you just don't get nasty like that."

???? professionalism among the likes of Karl Rove, et al.?

nasty like Swift Boaters is foul in the "tradition of politics"?

come on Nelly, Bush won in the end because of the magic of the electoral votes (that's in 2004 because 2000 was a different kind of dark art LOL)

I shouldn't have said dumb. I should have just said, naive. Sorry Nelly.

I think JC is c.l.k. 4:32s mother!!!!!!!!! hahaha

THANK YOU FOR TAKING SOMEONE ELSE'S COMMENT ABOUT "LET THE WAR" BEGIN AND TRYING TO MAKE IT ME.

TALK ABOUT P-A-T-H-E-T-I-C! LOLOLOL..........

Face it, there are people who think what Brangelina did was outright COWARDLY and you can't accept it.

And you're saying that other celebs don't age GRACEFULLY. Brad certainly doesn't and AJ has way more wrinkles than Jen and Jen's older.

that hat really travels.
and i think i see mr. pitt clutching the legendary notebook of european artists and intellectuals.
i find that amusing.

IT WAS ACTUALLY MINE.

Anonymous 4:51, you may be right!! Heehee...

I think JC is c.l.k. 4:32s mother!!!!!!!!! hahaha

^ I'm sorry but Jen who? If you are talking about Aniston then that lady looks older than Brad himself who is 6 years older.

NEW YORK CITY IS NICE? NEW YORK CITY SUCKS! I HATE NEW YORK CITY. NOTHING BUT A BUNCH OF WHINEY A******!!! EVERYBODY HATES NEW YORK CITY.

FAKE JC: THE REAL JC IS HERE TO TELL YOU TO STOP FOLLOWING MY GOREGOUS ASS AROUND AND TRYING TO BE ME.

FAKE JC: THE REAL JC IS HERE TO TELL YOU TO STOP FOLLOWING MY GOREGOUS ASS AROUND AND TRYING TO BE ME.

I KNOW YOU CAN'T GET ENOUGH OF ME. STARTING TO GET OBSESSIVE OVER ME NOW?

NYC - only the strong survive

People I cannot sit here in silence and let this Hateration continue.
I will have to eat crow for some of these comments!
Went to the beach yesterday and completelt detoxed,crappy day today here in TPA it is about to pour any minute now.
Now to the matter at hand,in my rant two days ago as to that nagging feeling if they cheated or not,here is what I realised.
I was completely looking at it from,the wrong angle,because I idenify with that part of Angie that can be wild,possibly a little flirt,sexy momma with the two lovers she meets in hotels for non commital sex. I completely forgot to look at Brad.
Now Bradley based on his past actions in his relatioships DOES NOT CHEAT. He, as a matter of fact had his heart broken twice.
Gweneth Paltrow who comes across,as so lady like,cheated,it was rumoured it was with Harvey
Weinstien (talk about a nasty looking man)
She admitted in her interview,can't remember if it was with Diane or Barbara,that she cheated and was in pain over the break up for a long time.
Bradley, I noe realise beyond the shadow of a doubt is
1) A man that was raised well
2) Comes from a very stable God Fearing Mid-Western family.
3)Is(I believe) a little boy at heart,it is evident in his smile and interaction with Maddox.
4)Apparentl when he loves,he loves deeply,which I believe is a quality found in most men that were raised like him.
I now feel 100% that he did not cheat,as much as he might have wanted to,because it is simply not who he is.
I now realise,they fell in love,just simply fell in love.
Oh life it is not fair,and it is messy,but you can't make your heart feel what it won't.
Did Brad love Jennifer at one point, Yes he most certainly did,but we grow up,we grow,we become different people. So at some point he stopped loving her.
If all he wanted,was wild sex,LA is crawling with women younger and just as beautiful as Angie,a piece of ass comes a penny no make that half a penny a dozen in LA. I know I go there a lot.
I now see,that because Brad is some what a softie with the women he is involved with, Ms Aniston took him for a push over.
Her oh I will get pregnant when I feel like it attitude blew up in her face.
She has now lost the best man she has ever had,will ever have and that my new found FRIENDS is no fault of Angelina's.
In the deluded vision of her fans,nonfans/Jolie haters, they had an oh so perfect marriage,but you know it is kinda like that Jude Law line in that movie Alfie. You go to a museum and you are looking at a beautiful statue of aphrodite,just beautiful,until you get closer and start to see all the cracks,and suddenly it is not so beautiful after all.

Yes this is a Blog not a Fansite and I do welcome
the differences in opinionit keeps the dialouge colourful.
Stating your difference in a peaceful,literate manner I honestly believed is appreciated her
BUT PEOPLE YOU ARE CROSSING A LINE ON THIS BLOG WHEN YOU START CALLING ANGIE A WHORE,AND SAYING ZAHARA IS A WHORE AND BRAD IS GOING TO DO A WOODY ALLEN. NO BRADLEY WAS RAISED WELL THANK YOU MR AND MRS PITT. YOU CROSS THE LINE LIKE THAT AND THIS BLOG WILL BECOME MY LIFE(WHEN I"M HERE IN TPA OF COURSE). THAT WAS A SICK COMMENT, YOU TOOK YOURSELF TO GROUND ZERO WITH THAT ONE. YOU ARE IN MY EYES A MR OR MS NOBODY. So go cool off and come back and have a decent conversation.

What's up Lou,Rica,African Girl and all the Bamz loving chicas out there. MISS ANGE IS BACK!

I personally don't have a problem with it. I think the more you post mean things about Jen and her fans or non-fans, the more people will realize what an ugly pair Brangelina is.
Nelly | February 24, 2006 04:03 PM

Really?Ever since Brad hooked up with Angelina the public was very supportive of Jen and that translated in a huge Box Office success for her movies and a huge support for her new relationship. Oh wait? That wasn't dumb Maniston. The movie that made gangbusters was Mr. and Mrs. Smith. The relationship that is getting everywhere accepted despite of how started isn't Jen's. It's Brad & Angelina's. Where did poor Jen failed?She did everything in her power to gain public support! She whined and screamed at the ocean, and burnt her wedding dress and threw pity parties, she even had sex with that douchebag Vince so people WOULD believe that she's STRONG y'all!Alas, the poor wounded bird got a huge backlash for her constant whining which translated in 2 major flops and a general EWWWWWWW for her new relationship! Poor poor Jen! Cry for your sweetheart America! She needs you as her life is becoming less and less relevant and the only way she can have people care is to attach her name to her ex husband and his gorgeous girlfriend. Pity her!I definetely am.

http://www.tombraiderchronicles.com/images/ajolie_unhcr_washington_01/screen2.jpg

Mr and mrs Smith? The movie that everybody said was Angelina's worst acting debut ever? The one where movie critics kept saying that the only acting she could do was make that same face she always does in all her movies?

Mr and mrs Smith had the worst acting ever. It was horrible. The only reason they made it big with that movie and dvd is because of their scandalous relationship and the ONLY reason.

TALK ABOUT FUGLY!

http://www.tombraiderchronicles.com/images/ajolie_unhcr_washington_01/screen2.jpg

Angelina looks too old for her age. She looks more like she's 40 than 30. Even without the wrinkles. I guess all that smoking she did before, lugging around those kids, flying airplanes and stealing other people's men isn't working for her.

ANGE, Beautiful post. Thoughtful, Intelligent and Well Said. I give you PROPS. Brad is a sweetie! I know we'll disagree in the future, and I look forward to it. LOL!!!

dont you know that aniston and weatherspoon father is jay leno!

dont you know that aniston and weatherspoon father is jay leno!

Whats up ange. I agree with you 100% my big problem with some of the things people have said, is about these peoples kids you dont attack peoples kids. Never seen so many grown a** people say stupid sh** towards someone kid. I know half of the people saying that have kids themselves or a brother or a sister. I applaud educational debats but dont bring peoples kids into it is just wrong.

Ange,I'm speechless.That was AMAZING,thank you for that piece of brilliance.

ange ur back and firing!! all those nasty comments just ignore them...d don't know what d r doing and saying!! just keep loving bamz+1 family!! cheers...and thanks much for jared for sharing his blog...u rock jared!!!

Ange...you hit the bulleye....beautiful, thoughtful and sweetest post. Have a wonderful week-end everyone.

It's "brilliance" all right? Brilliance of a rock!

GOOD GOD, what has happened to both Angie and Brad?? They've become Hollywood's lamest old couple. We've been paying attention to Brangelina now for probably over half a year now, and the only juicy detail we have is that she's pregnant??? Who couldn't see that coming from a mile away, honestly?? This shit is getting old. I mean something needs to happen.

Angelina... what the hell caused you to make a complete 180? From telling fans you fucked Billy Bob in a limo on the way to an awards ceremony you've now become so conservative and restricted. I mean I know you're this goodwill ambassador, but that's not why we loved you. We loved you cause you didn't give a fuck what people thought about what you said. All the talk about sex, drugs and your lesbian fetishes turned us on and away from the dull celebritites. I mean come on it's been like 6 months now, give us something. Tell us you like it raw dog and from behind. Tell us you like it from in your ass to your mouth. Tell us how you like to suck Brad off on the can. For GOD sakes, tell us you like to be spanked, whipped, or pissed on, but atleast give us something. I mean come on you haven't even kissed in public... you make me sick. All this time about expressing how you believe people in relationships should be expressing their feelings about each other publicly, and also about how you could never forgive yourself if you had a child through natural birth... you're the biggest hypocrite out of anyone. Ugh.. anyway..

Brad... you need to lose the hat. I mean at least get a new one or wash it. Shave your head like it was for Mr. and Mrs. Smith, go on a diet, eat healthy, take some diet pills and get some color on your skin. Pasty white is not in. I know looks don't matter in your relationship, but it absolutely does for your career. Also, you really need some new clothes. Wearing the same pants, shoes and hat is not good hygiene. There are other colors besides black or shades of black and gray. I mean Geez, i would hate to take a walk through your house of darkness and despair. "FEAR THE LIGHT AND ANYTHING COLORFUL" is probably the theme of the house.

As for comments about the kids.. Christ, it's like a freaking zoo. You got imports from all over the world! Let's hope these kids don't turn out to be rapists, pedophiles, and druggies on E's True Hollywood Story. I mean being adopted is one thing, but having no biological attachments to the sexiest MILF on the planet during puberty is going to create some problems. Oh it's going to be bad when friends from school show them their mom fucking in movies, and they develop an Oedipus complex for their "mother." I mean technically they wouldn't even be in the wrong for masturbating to her movies or even fantasizing about fucking her themselves. One could even push it further if they wanted to.. they have no biological attachments to their siblings. So think of the incest that's going to go on with them living a sheltered life like they're living now. And dont think it's going to change. Brad and Ang wouldn't dare let their kids out of their sight for the off chance someone kidnaps them for ransom. OHH most definitely this is going to shape up to be one FUCKED UP FAMILY!!!

Brad fell in love for AJ's lips! And I'm not talkin about the ones on her face. He just wanted to bang her.

oh.. this guy??? r u really a guy or gay?? drs nothing wrong if ur gay, but making nasty comments about the kids for being of different color is a reflection of ur self...r u a racist?? and i hope that god won't punish u and ur family for using his name in vain!! ur attitude and mentality of superiority is so vulgar!! if u don't like bamz+1 don't make comments that will bite ur ass later!!

AJ | February 24, 2006 07:47 PM

yes brad bang ange and now she is having a baby!! r u jealous bcoz it was not u??

Please ignore these fools. They post because they want a reaction from us. Please don't give them the time and energy. just pass over they comments and go to the next one. Love you Brad, I don't care want anyone says you look hot, then again you will always be hot in my book...

WELL SAID ANGE!!! Welcome Back.

And for those who have a different outlook of these ppl (Brad and Angie), there is nothing wrong with a difference of opinion but is it too much to ask that it isn't done in a such trashy way?

I believe AJ is a hypocrite. She publicly shows affection for BillyBob and not Brad. Why? Because she has kids? If that was the case, then why was she having sex scenes with Ethan Hawke? And whats up with her doing this complete 180 and starting to adopt kids of all nationalities? Is that going to help the world? If so, she has a long ways to go!

Then if that isn't enough, instead of finding a man of her own, she has to go steal the husband of Jennifer Aniston (as if that weren't PREDICTABLE enough since she's done it with practically every male co-star).

Her cheating isn't what really bothers people. It was how she went about doing it. So quickly and coldly and with no regard for the other woman. It's one thing that she did it in her past relationships, but then she goes even furthur this past year. You think actresses are on Angelina's side for what she did? No, they're on Jen's side. Because they know that it could have been THEIR man that she could've been taking on any acting set with AJ for ANY reason, citing any particular problem in their marriage as the cause for it.

Every marriage has problems, but you don't use that as grounds to flirt with some other woman's man. And you know she didn't just sit by on the set of Mr and Mrs Smith. She did more than that to allow Brad to want her.

And as far as Jen crying on TV about her relationship. WHERE? I never once saw her whine or cry a bit. Uma Thurman talked more about her break up on Oprah than Jen did (and lemme tell you that was one long boring show on Uma's problems).

If I could feel good about Brangelina, I would. But I can't. I just feel something's wrong with it.

If Brad was an all american hearted guy, then he wouldn't have left Jen like that.

And regarding Jen not wanting kids. So, Jen should have babies in order to keep Brad? Brad was not understanding to her. She may have had some reason, personal reasons for postponing. And I'm not talkin about gaining weight! Because obviously as we see with Angelina, that doesn't have to be an issue.

Why would any woman just drop and have a baby with someone?

Angelina, we love you. But what you did this past year really irritates us. Talk about SHADY.

This Guy sounds to me that you know first hand the results of growing up in a fucked up family.
AJ I have news for you he has been banging her now for almost a year.

I have a close friend from my job,who is chinese and in the years I knew her she always talked lovinly about her parents,and how close she was to her bother and sister. Well surprise,surprise when I went to her wedding last year her parents are white,and her siblings are their bilogical children,she is adopted. She has stated that she has no desire to seek out her bilogical parents because this was mom and dad,and they raised her well and lovingly and also gave her one hell of a wedding. Some people just have that great capacity to love a child any child. Anyone can reproduce,shit rats do it,but it takes special people to be good parents.
The proof of the good parenting in these two is evident,in that Mommy or Daddy worn out look,I know all you mothers out there know what I'm talking about,and also very evident in Brads dirty jeans that day in the park. Children growing in up our culture the way it is, already stands a 50/50 chance of being fucked up. Celebrity Parents or not.

Brad looks fine and happy. thanks for the pics JJ. As for the haters, damn u guys sound so bitter and angry, take a prozac and calm down, JA has her millions to keep her happy, why not do her a favor and focus ur energy on buying some tickets to see one of her movies, she could use ur support where her career is concerned, lol...that'll help her much more than ur complaining about last years old news.

wow has Brad ever personally done something to you really hostile people, you don't even know him, leave him alone and worry about your own problems, when I see a picture, story about someone I'm not interested in, I simply don't click on it, so you must be interested in some way, just relax, he is just an actor being a Dad and a lover so chill, please!

jiggy, i haven't read this much assumption, conjecture, presumption, hearsay, urban legend, rumour and just good old fashioned twisting of the truth till it stands so straight that even the devil forgot how crooked it really is "all week".

wow has Brad ever personally done something to you really hostile people, you don't even know him, leave him alone and worry about your own life and loves.

Yes, he "allowed" Jennifer Aniston to divorce him. That seems to be never remembered, and always forgotten.......she filed for divorce.

This Guy,when you love someone deeply enough,there are parts of yourself that you give up to meet that person half way. I supect his parents are conservative,so it's her way of saying I love your son enough to change some of that for him. He gave up smoking for her. At some point she had to grow up,she is now the mother of two children and another one on the way. That part of her has now been restricted to their bedroom. So when you miss the old Angie,just put Tomb Raider in your dvd or something.

Jiggy when you enter into a marriage,you have a legal and moral obligation to your spouse.
If you entered into that marriage,knowing your husband wants kids,lots of kids.Then it is your moral obligation to give him kids,if fertility was the problem they had enough money to see the best doctors,science has made a lot of progress in that dept.
Don't tell your husband we will start when friends wrap,and turn around and sign on for two more seasons,that is fraud. Yes if she loved him enough,she would have given him those babies,this is the man who said he wanted lots of little jennifers. It is beginning to look like it was she who actually checked out of her marriage.

To JIGGY: I think you're describing Angelina of 5 years ago. As a living, breathing human being, she's entitled to change, evolve, make different choices from where she was 5 years ago. That's one of the essence of being human. We are rational yet we have emotions. We learn to adapt to our environment, our society, the people around us, the situation we are in. Please note that Angelina is a mom now and a pregnant one at that. She have two kids under 5 and another one on the way and a partner. They made a conscious decision to build a family together, be a family and give their children and future ones a nurturing environment so they too can contribute something positive to society. Aside from that she's also a UN Ambassador of Goodwill. She's hobnobbing w/ policy makers in the Hill and have discussions w/ Head of States regarding children's issues and other causes they are supporting. Shouldn't you consider the fact that its inappropriate for her to still be the same Angelina that you are describing. Its quite unfair of you to take that against her right to change for the better. Although you have the right to an opinion and you have the free will to discuss that in a blog but that very right is also fenced by other people's rights or free will. Angelina has that right to change and many sees that she's changed for the better and she deserves that freedom to be different from what she was of BBT days just like you and me who have the right and choice to change their minds, their views. Hey even paradigms shift.

So, I'm saying I don't agree with your contention that she is being hypocritical. There is a difference between hypocracy and change or evolving and growing up and being mature. I think you are just seeing a different Angie than what she was of the past. She is not as open as she was of this relationship, because she choose not to. I read an anterview she made in 2004 and she said she won't be as open as was after BBT. I think it was Allure IRRC. Hence, I respect that decision she's made. If she wants to keep it to herself and not be as open, so be it. Its her right and free will.

For all Brad and Angie's detractors..try to read infor on www.alertnet.org. Fans of Angie and Brad...it just proves our point why we love this couple so much. More power to the them. Peace!

I don't mind opposing views and if it really makes you feel better and happy to bash Brad and Angelina or any othe celebrity then that's your choice. But you should know when to draw the line and there should be a conscious effort to leave the children out of it - i.e. if you have an ounce of compassion in you and you stll consider yourself as a rational human being.

about Brad looking grundgy with dark hair - he can look ok if it's done right, but he still does look much better & normal in his natural colors.

Sorry! I am still unfamiliar with posting the link of article that I wanted you guys to read. I guess just look under NEWSDESK..and filter info by looking under UNHCR and the date is Feb.23, 2006. If someone else can post this as a link, I'd appreciate it.

just me.....here you go.

http://www.alertnet.org/thenews/newsdesk/UNHCR/2721a4347c7bd255cc59537c1e7a5172.htm

It's easy to throw money at something and then take credit. Rich people do it all the time. No big deal.

THANKS FOR THE PICTURES JARED! AND KEEP UP THE GOOD WORK! SORRY I HAVE TO SHOUT, WANT TO MAKE SURE YOU HEAR ME WITH ALL THIS NOISE IN HERE. :))

YES JARED LUVS U LOTS!! VIVA BAMZ+1 FAMILY AND SUPPORTERS...BAMZ+1 SUPPORTERS FOREVER AND EVER!!

I've never cared for Jennifer. And I never liked Friends. I thought the jokes were too predictable and cliched with not only one dumb character but two. Nevertheless, I wouldn't spend one second of my time at any Jennifer site whether for her or against. Nor would I waste my time in a pro-Jennifer leaning site just to post my indifference about her. Isn't the purpose of our lives is to indulge in our interests and likes?

Getting back to Brad's appearance, I love it more that he doesn't give a rat's ass. When he has to "perform" for premieres or press junkets, he scrubs up nicely. Mind you, Brad never did anything for me when he was younger. Yup, that meant during his days with Jennifer. There was no character to him. But now, I find him more appealing with the depth he has acquired in the last year. I'll take a John Cusack witty, smart, but not great looking man to any superficial, empty supermodel man. (Halle Berry, you can do better!!)

When I have to dress up for work or special events, I dress to the nines so much that I get constant compliments of my fashion sense. I'm told I'm a fashion horse or a fashion plate. I get "wows" with some of my outfits. But when I don't have to dress up, I don't wear any makeup and I dress extremely casual - Gap-like. And I wear the same clothes in my casual time since I don't have to appear well-dressed for anyone. That's what I'm most comfortable in and I'm practical with my down time.

But with the haters they expect celebrities to be always "on" for them even as they say from the other side of their mouths that Brad and Angie are so consumed with publicity. Sure. Brad and Angie would really move to another country with the most restrictive paparazzi laws to attract even more attention of which they were already impossibly getting.

Notice how in London the paps were practically on top of them wherever they went. But in Paris, we don't see those paparazzi crowds. And for the most part, they get to enjoy their time out in the public without too much nuisance. Though we get our daily fix of pictures of BAMZ, I'm absolutely certain that 90% of their time is completely unrecorded by the paparazzis. In Berlin, they were able to go to the museum, theatre and other places without any parazzi pictures. Considering we get only pictures of one setting every few days, I'm certain more of their days are to themselves. If they were still living in Malibu, the paparazzis would be camping out by their house around-the-clock.

The only reason George Bush won was the terrorism fear his Karl Rove fed the public. Those sheeps bought it hook, line and sinker just like that whole WMD lie, which I never bought. The public didn't think Kerry would be strong against terrorism as Bush. It's not anything else.

I think there is something wrong with Jolie, I mean she seems like she is trying to CONTROL BRAD. FREE BRAD. I mean she has to move to Paris, Brad can't talk to Jen, and Jen can't get flowers from Brad's MOM. Jolie has to get PREGNANT before the divorce is final.
Jolie is a VERY insecure jealous person. She is manipulating Brad and the media for her positive PR spin on the breakup of Brad's marriage. How pathetic.

Why not just do the right thing?

First Ange, good to see you back contributing your thoughts.

On Brad's aversion to cheating, everybody who knows him says he is monogamous and would never cheat. Even Courtney alluded to it. Why would he be so forthcoming and honest about his attraction to Angie with Jennifer if he were to cheat on the side? A cheating man would be lying through his teeth.

Here's just one example of many where his friends have said Brad is a faithful man:

[i]He's faithful ... and hot

One of Brad Pitt's closest buds told E!'s Ted Casablanca there's no way Brad would cheat on wife Jennifer Aniston with his "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" co-star Angelina Jolie because Brad's been cheated on before and knows how much it hurts. "Trust me ... [Brad] is really one of the most moral people I know,"[/i]

I read somewhere when Jennifer had said Brad was honest. And they had always laid everything on the table. Why would Brad revert to lying when he and Jennifer had an agreement that their love may not last? I think he was always upfront with Jennifer.

The haters who go after the children just shows how sick haters are. I'm beyond appalled when they go there. It's more of watching a disaster at work with the haters.

I've said it before I don't have problem with critics since I have reservations too (not many) and I think a little criticism can spark good debates. But when haters resort to distortions in every way, the haters become intolerably tedious.

I'm not crazy about Brad's dark hair. I don't care for his wearing the baseball cap nearly every day. But hey, Brad isn't dressing for me! If I were his girlfriend, I would hate to hem him in. I advocate individuality.

"It's easy to throw money at something and then take credit. Rich people do it all the time."

Apparently not since wealthy people on average give only 1% of their income, according to Business Week.

To all Angelina haters:

She grew up to be a better person. What she did years ago is in the past. So quit bringing up old stuff and grow up as well.
She takes her job as a good will ambassador seriously, and she loves children. This is obviously why Brad fell in love with her. Someone so generous and giving of herself, and have the same goals he has.
I don't see Jenifer doing anything for the poor or oppress. If anything, the lastest news about her is either shopping or gambling in Las Vegas. She's not giving you anything either. At least Angie donates a lot of her salary to help the needy.
It is also a documented fact, that men are more attracted to nurturing, strong and independent women. Jen appears more narcissistic and clingy.
And all of us grow older, so quit critizing Brad getting older. So what. No doubt he is aware of it, and it won't be long he'll quit show biz and pursue other business venture, and possibly something where he and Angie expose themselves to the masses, unless it's charity or goodwill work. So your bad mouthing only show envy and resentment.
And lastly to whynot - Yes, why? Why the hell would Brad be calling Jen or asking his family to let go. IT'S BECAUSE HE HAS MOVED ON. THEY ARE NOW DIVORCED, ENDED, KAPUT!! DON'T BLAME ANGELINA FOR ANYTHING. YOU DON'T KNOW THEM PERSONALLY UNLESS YOUR WITH THEM IN THEIR BEDROOM. IT'S PRETTY DARN OBVIOUS HE WANTS TO BE AWAY FROM ALL THIS MEDIA AND FROM JEN. LET GO ALREADY. GEEEEZE.

whynot, where in the world are you geting this stuff? i'd love to see your sources. just list where you read each thing, and when because you seem to be the only one aware of any of it, and not to call you a lier, and to give you the benefit of the doubt, i'd like you to direct the rest of us to the web location, or offline publication your information was culled from. thanks in advance.

Sure Brad may be alittle tired. He has two kids and a baby on the way. He is an active father who paticipates and cares about his babies. He also has a young and very beautiful lady..you bet he is tired. He probably can't keep his hands off of her when they are alone.

dear anonymous,

i wouldnt expect much from some posters.
they know everything, even about critisism towards they beloved ang and brad is not allowed at all.
postings are so boring and onesided.
in their world there is no diversity nor openess for critics.

No matter what anyone says, Brad is not the bad guy here. How quickly we forget December 2004 and Brad's tearful admission that he has kids and family on the brain to Diane Sawyer. Jump ahead to New Year's 2005 and how Brad and Jen went on a two week vacation before announcing their split.

This is not something a guy who is cheating on his wife does. Holding her and kissing her on the beach while they are both obviously sad. This is something that someone who loves their wife does, who has done everything to convince her that he wants to start a family, he's 40, it's time. This is sadness on Jen's part because she knows she is going to lose him because they are not on the same page. She's focusing on her career. They probably used that trip to decide once and for all to separate. After two months - SHE was the one who filed for divorce not him. If he was in a hurry to be with Angie wouldn't HE have filed? He has never been a guy to sleep around, he's always been a one woman man. He probably made a connection with Angelina and when he realized that things were not going to work out with Jen he decided to make his dreams a reality with someone who WAS on the same page as him. Not to say that Angie has the best track record, but she has appeared in many films that she has actually not stolen or hooked up in a relationship with her leading man. People do change, and right now seeing them together makes me so happy. It makes me happy that the most beautiful man in the world is finally going to procreate and leave some offspring for future generations to enjoy. They will have the most beautiful children. I hope they have more. A woman who is so obviously devoted to her children, let alone the children of the world - well she can't be that bad can she? She left Billy Bob because he didn't want to be a part of her adopting Maddox, that saddened her a great deal if everyone remembers correctly.

Now she has found her soulmate and the fact that Brad is getting wrapped up in her passions show just what a committed caring partner he is. He's adopting her kids for goodness sakes! Does a scumbag who is heartless and cold do that? I don't think so.

So ignore all the BAMZ haters.

Brad is still gorgeous no matter what both on the inside and out. He is a human being who has good days and bad days just like the rest of us and is a real enough person to go on with his life not caring what the heck he looks like.

I love you Brad! xoxoxo

see, just what i ment.

relax, diversity wont kil you.

sorry for the double post but I just read some more posts and had to comment on jiggy's post about Angie's PDAs with Billy Bob and why she won't with Brad.

It's out of respect for JEN that they are not hanging all over each other in public. Any one can see that? They are not hiding the fact that they are together, but they are not making a spectacle of the fact that they are together and happy either so Jen doesn't have to see the photos plastered all over the place.

Again- that's just why Brad is a good guy. He doesn't want to hurt her, but he is living his life and moving on.

THATS THEIR SOURCES:
I JUST HAD TO LAUGH

Just by doing searches on the internet. You can google your star's name, if you know what latest mag they've appeared in (ie Vogue) you can search there.
Just today I went to Vogue.com and pulled up previous interviews...of course it was AJ and JA. I wanted to compare and see for myself who has been laying the BS on thick, who has been saying the samething, etc.
So start that way, maybe you can find out what you're looking for like that. I think sometimes they may also go to places like eonline, et.tv.yahoo.com, insider.tv.yahoo.com and other places like that too...that's how I catch up on my stuff...but definitely go to vogue.com, vanityfair.com to get the interviews and also pittcenter.com has alot of interviews regarding BP and I know for sure http://angiejolie.free.fr/eng/ vi...videotvshow.htm has most of AJ interviews....
that's if you're looking for AJ's interviews.

SO NOT GOSSIPY SITES,WHAT A NAIVE PERSON

Anonymous, if you are referring to my posted link as "my gossipy site sources" then you need to look at that link. I just used it to reference the US Weekly Magazine cover that I was refering to which showed Brad and Jen on the beach during their final vacation together.

The main place I go for my news is JustJared.com - YOU ROCK JARED!

This is for Katie....I am sad that people like you exist in this world....I know Angie and Brad are rich but to be able to share that is a wealth on its own..look at the Jen A's, Paris H. and other superficial stars who could care less. Even Oprah flaunts it when she helps out(whole hour segment of her shows) but I do extend an admiration for her actions. I wish you can have it in yourself to even help out in your own community. Have you ?

"Jiggy when you enter into a marriage,you have a legal and moral obligation to your spouse.
If you entered into that marriage,knowing your husband wants kids,lots of kids.Then it is your moral obligation to give him kids,if fertility was the problem they had enough money to see the best doctors,science has made a lot of progress in that dept.
Don't tell your husband we will start when friends wrap,and turn around and sign on for two more seasons,that is fraud. Yes if she loved him enough,she would have given him those babies,this is the man who said he wanted lots of little jennifers. It is beginning to look like it was she who actually checked out of her marriage."

Whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa, whoa. Nobody has a moral obligation to provide their partner with children if they don't want to have children. Having a child you don't want just to hang onto your spouse is a terrible reason to bring a new life into the world.

I would agree that you do have a moral obligation to be honest with your spouse once you make up your mind one way or the other. Because if one person in the marriage definitely wants children and the other definitely doesn't, that marriage probably won't last. But no woman is obligated to "give" her husband babies if she's not ready to be a mom; women don't sign over control of their ovaries when they sign a marriage license.

Yeah, if a couple split because the woman wants kids and the man doesn't, it's easier for the woman to subsequently have a child/children as a single parent, because most women can bake their own. All it takes is nine months and a donation of genetic material, either through artificial insemination or the old-fashioned way. But that's not to say men are totally reliant on their wives if they want kids. These days men can adopt as single parents too, there's surrogacy, or they can meet someone else and have children with her.

Look, I have no idea what went on in BP/JA's marriage (possibly because I've never met them). But no woman is obligated to reproduce just because her husband wants her to. And it's not unheard of for someone who thought they'd be okay with having kids "in a few years" to realize when that time comes that actually no, they don't want to. So it's not necessarily a question of going into a marriage under false pretenses. Could be a discovery that person makes later on, when their spouse is saying, "Okay, it's been a few years. Now let's have a baby."

I don't know if any of this is what happened in that marriage, but I do know that the reasons a marriage ends are not usually cut-and-dried. And it's not fair to say a woman must have children because that's what her husband wants.

Has anyone ever thought Jennifer Aniston may comment on here, she admitted being addicted to it at one time . Angelina may put her comments in here also, I am sure she has a laptop...lol

Hey Becky, you're not the only one who has thought that about Jennifer. She has admitted to being a gossip junky - alas with picking up People. But you know full well it doesn't stop there. Then there was gossip about Brad and Jennifer's driver weekly pickup of all the rags on Wednesday or Tuesday when they come out at the newsstand.

I can imagine insecure Jennifer needing to read up on all the gossip about her, Brad and Angelina.

I wouldn't put it past her posse to post on the boards to shore her up. She has a pitbull publicist trying his best to salvage her image from the self-pitying whiner.

With Angelina, I doubt it since she has quite a handful on her plate. Two toddlers and a baby on the way. Plus, she's said she doesn't read gossip. She has better things to read as with world issues. Remember it was Newsweek Maddox walked with in his arm and not National Enquirer. LOL.

Also another thing, Jennifer has or used to have her own MySpace blog, which was legit. For her to have a MySpace page, she must have been an internet junkie.

Mija and Lou , I like you; do have a life which is more than I can say for a lot of these posters. I figure the hyena pack will be moving on to try to sabotage another web site before long and there will be more comments that I want and are worth reading.

I gave up trying to read all the comments and just read the ones from those I know have something to say that not only shows intelligence but wisdom. Specially when so many of the hate posts are the same ones I have read before just cut and pasted from blog to blog etc.

Have you all noticed that so many of these hate comments are written by the same person. We all have communication patterns that can be identified. I have started reading one comment and recognized the writer but when I got to the name, it is either different or the anon. There is one person that post so many comments that I hope they are on Jen's payroll because it seems she has made this a full time job.

But you all, I am sure that Jared makes more money the more hits he gets and you know in Hollywood, there is no such thing as bad publicity. What these haters don't understand is that they are helping Brad and Angelina be more bankable.

We do not waste our time going to Jennifer's sites to bad mouth her just as we do not go to her movies. But you the haters not only spend more time and energy on these sites that support this couple but you will be the first in line to see their movies just so that you can "hate" on them some more. I am sure that there is someone in Hollywood looking at the number of posts on anything to do with BAMZ+1 and adding $$$$ to the Brad and Angie's fee per movie. On their behalf ..Thank you! Of course the reverse is true. It is probably why you are not seeing much about Jen and Vince ... You spend more time looking at blogs like this one and little or no time supporting your patron saint'.s So, as BA stock is going up; Jen's is falling....All thanks to YOU.

Ps. Margot but is fair for a woman to lead a man to believe she wants kids as bad as he does just so he marries her and then changes the rules? Jen has too much negative baggage from her relationship with her own mother to want to be a mother right now... I don't see her really wanting a kid right now or for a long time. I hope she doesn't have one just to prove something... That child will be even more emotionally neglected than her marriage.

a

Thank you Elena and all of the Bamz supports on this site.I myself sifted through the posts and Bamz lovers I am so proud of the way you intelligently stated your opinions and didn't allow yourself to be pulled into the gutter.I agree with Elena that Brad and Angie are more bankable,these two people have had to put up with alot of crap in the past year and they handled it wonderfully.I feel they deserve the happiness they have and then some.I wish Jen happiness as well and hope her fans can learn to LET GO.Hate is a heavy burden to carry and I just can't understand why some of you want to carry it.

Stop fighting like this.Brad,Angelina and Jennifer don't know you.All your fighting won't change a thing.They are people who are also celebrities,they don't belong to you,they are not YOUR celebrities.I f find it real funny how people comment on how bad they think Brad looks.LOL I wonder what you or your husbands or boyfriends look like.I doubt they look half as good as Brad.

you jennifer shits go get a life... i mean he looks bad in a pic, atleast he has the potential to look better... it's his choice to look this way... unlike chinnifer... too bad she was born with that chin... i'll admit brad looks bad in that pic... if you shits admit that aniston is just plain fugly all together... Karma??? Right, thats why they had a blockbuster hit and are so happy together as a family... sorry but bad Karma can only be seen with Maniston... movie flops, and being so damn sad... it's f***ing obvious, Vanity Fair, Oprah!!! I think it is KARMA!!!

creativegirl | February 25, 2006 06:41 AM

Really like your post(s), but I do disagree that the lack of PDA's has anything to do with deference to JA's feelings. There should be no obligation on their part to do that for her, anymore than her them. The lack of PDA's is in my opinion about keeping that intimacy that belongs to them "between them". They don't owe us anymore than they owe his ex wife, and I for one find it refreshing that they're working out their life together on their on terms, and not shelling out what they think the public wants to see.

Just look at each of their past relationships, and then compare them to this one in terms of public display of effection, publicly spoken words of devotion and love etc. Naysayers like to suggest that since he and JA split, Brad looks disinterested, bored, and anything else negative they can drum up. They say since Angelina has been with him she has lost her fire, is fridged and anything more negative they can add there.

My question to them regarding Brad and all his ex's, and Angelina and hers: "did all the PDAs, the public words of love, the never letting a gesture pass that wasn't reported to the press somehow someway, the inviting us into their bed's in a manner of speaking everytime they goo goo eyed each other, or patted an ass as they walked the red carpet, let alone the back of a limo. Did any of those things make Angelina & Brad look at where they were, who they were with and say.......this is the shit, and I NEVER want to be anywhere else cause I'm damn happy?"

Yep, at those times they probably did say that, but time moved on, they both changed, they found one another, and it's their's, it doesn't belong to anyone but them. It's a new day, and this is going to be as private as they can get it, it's about love & family, and not about getting to the top rung anymore, and as lovely as it is to get a glimpse of a kiss, or hands clutching each other, it's not owed, and I don't need it to believe they're the real deal. jpf

Amoureuse you are right about we shouldn't fight... But reality is that this triangle brings out all insecurities , conflicts and distrust that we woman have against each other.

A woman who defines her value by having a man or who the man is in her life reacts as a victim when he moves on. But a woman who defines her value by her own personal worth might be sad but knows that she wants to be with someone who complements her life rather than with someone who complicate it and understand that she by her choices, is the navigator of her life.

I think we all need to think about this... we woman have all, for the most part, been raised to think of each other as "the competition" . Maybe it is a part of the direction of our general society... the lack of accountability. It is so much easier to always blame the other woman and call her a skank etc. than it to accept our own culpability...

When we are young we all think that outward beauty is essential for the one we choose to love... But there comes a time when what matters most is if they are the first to jump up when the baby cries in the middle of the night. No one is as beautiful to a woman's eyes as the man/woman in her life taking care of their child.

The only person whose opinion he cares about right now is the person who we see look at him with so much love in her eyes....

Ps. I nrglected to include the conflict that we woman have within ourselves and with society about career vs. motherhood. Specially when we are not so lucky as to have the assets to hire help.

Elena: Shut the fuck up with your thesis paper on your insecurities. Call your therapist.

Angelina is gorgeous and wonderful. Only women who are truly confident in themselves can be her fan. Whereas Chinnifer is so ugly, some women prefer to side with her because she is absolutely no threat. She is a dog!!! Period.

Chinnifer is a Certified Dog | February 26, 2006 01:01 AM

Not that Elena needs me or anyone to come to her defense, and not that she needs defending, but Chinnifer etc, you don't seen to be aware that Elena is a Jolie-Pitt supporter. Regardless of that, your infantile rant was seriously uncalled for, and childish. This board has turned into a junior high detention annex and as sad as it is to say, I wouldn't blame JJ if he shut it down. jpf

Anonymous 2.25.06 6:49 pm

You're just like the media...taking everything out on context...you failed to say why i referenced those articles, websites, and mag...it not a source but something to read and compare...and if you look at an interview from a website...it was actually either BP, JA, or AJ talking...I could call you a name but I won't go that far.

So next time you want to laugh about where I reference something or why tell the whole darn story.

Man you people are $%#@&. I was just trying to help a CONFUSED MINA who didn't and still can't comprehend how someone can fall out of love with someone.

I try to see the good in people...but some of you are truly evil and mean hearted.

I am new to blogs and responding to them, only recently getting into it, and realizing why it is so popular--it is like turning on a television talk show and always having the topic they are discussing be your favorite. Brad and Angelina's love story has been a guilty pleasure for me, yet no one else I know can be bothered! I mean, who can you turn to for news if your friends and family all say "Who's that?" if you mention Maddox? Jared is the answer, 24 hours a day! So to those of you who have more experience than I do, how long does it take before you don't get shocked any more by the horrible language of the creepy, creepy posters, and you know who I mean. Are these people just like everyone else on the outside, and only like perverts in anonymity? Truly frightening to think they could live next door or work with you. Safe to say they probably possess zero charisma, a gift Brad has enjoyed all his glorious life. At this point he is a standard by which you can judge male beauty, male behavior, male strength. Love him madly! He is the icon of the future living among us, one day to join Elvis, Frank, Bogart, and Dean as men we can never forget. And most likely the same thing applies to Angelina Jolie--a Marilyn Monroe or Elizabeth Taylor of the future. Come home BAMZ!

LOL!! Great post, and the above? I don't think I'll ever get use to it, and I've been wondering more and more if the guy next door....the really nice guy...is possibly the same one who cussed me out on the Popsugar blog last night.

btw, welcome.

addictedtoBAMZ+1 | February 26, 2006 01:58 AM
Btw...again...Brad the dad touched back down in France a couple of hours, and so who know's when he'll/they'll be back this way.

while his girlfriend and children are liking the way he looks it's enough for him cuz you know it's angelina jolie!!!!!!!for me he's so so so charming and cute above all sexy like ever waw she is just so lucky

me again,

you can keep your thoughts to yourself.
it looks like you are confused cause you are taking things you are taking things out of context.

i am not confused, i had asked you a simple question how a grown man can rush into a new partnership so quickly and you guys think he is a committed guy.

but i dont want to go on with this, your comments are borng and onesided.

and if you want to say the words, go on, i already know you are shallow.

just as shallow as your soucres.
MAKES ME LAUGH, vanity fair and vogue as a source.
be reasonable and just say you are a gossiper.

i feel sorry for you

^^^^^^THIS POST UP THERE IS OF COURSE FROM MINA^^^^^^^^

I don't care how many pictures the media shows of the "happy family" - she is, was and always will be a, home-wrecking whore! And she uses her kids to show the world what a "good person" she is. Give me a break!!! And him - well, he's just an idiot!!

JJ thanks for the pics!!! luv it..

daphane kicklighter
plz stop making thigs complicitated .they are just enjoying their lives together they like each other so we shouldnt care about if she is using her...faire des remarques aussi cruelles ne manent à rien.

Talk about someone using - Isn't JA using the media as a venue to whine about her "pity parties". Too bad she's not smart enough to see how she is so obviously being used as a freak show to gawk and whisper about. Now there's an idiot for you!

Without Brad Pitt, Jennifer Aniston is just average
looking. He made her look prettier than she really
is. Angelina is a true beauty ...she and Brad are georgeous together...the haters know it and that is why they are so vicious. Brad Pitt is where he wants to be.

Oh yes and I agree with "ditto" post of2/25/06
about " insecure Jennifer needing to read the gossip".

It makes me laugh all the people with the hater comments (but also creeped out by all the vicious, scary, weirdos in the blog world).

People fall in and out of love all the time! And to hate people and wish them badly (Brad and AJ), just because you like his ex more is just silly! Who cares how much you loved Brad with Jennifer?! Obviously people are different to live with and their relationship was their own, BOTH Brad and Jennifer knew their relationship was not working and ended it. They were probably unhappy LONG before Angelina...marriages are often broken before the final break happens.

The fact Brads's moved on...that happens! We ALL move on from things, that's life! We ALL hope to find someone better suited to our needs and usual do. Often when older (like Brad), we know what those needs are more. Jennifer will also find her love-needs better met with someone else. Be it with Vince or whoever. It all works out in the end for everybody. Been there, lived that, as most of us have...relationships end and new ones start, get over it. Love BAMZ, glad they are happy.

I have to say ..the man looks really old.......and maybe it is the dark hair or the one hat and pair of boots he owns........ Angelina can wear the same thing all the time but she looks good .....Brad does not smile...I can recall seeing him on tv and mags and he was always wearing a big grin...I am sorry but he just does not look like a man in love...I am not sure why he is this way ...but u cant live you life hiding and a try to keep it a lie without looking worse for wear now can u ... and if he is tired now....baby watch out.........cause he is about to have more children to look after ...I think he and ange just went a bit too fast .......in this relationship.......and I am not a ange hater or a Brad hater ...I am just saying this is how I see it and I can tell from the comments I am not alone on this bit of observation...

Bad at his worse looks far hotter than Jen and her best.

Why would he be smiling when he's being followed by the paparazzi,and the comment of him moving to fast with his relationship with Angelina,they started shooting the movie in Jan 2004 finished late fall 2004 did reshoots March 2005.Thats almost a year and a half plenty of time to get to know someone.This is Feb 2006 they have had over 2 years.Laura you may want to look closer because Brad is smiling on alot of the pictures on this site and others.You are seeing what you want to see.

IF BRAD'S NOT SMILING IN THE PHOTOS ITS PERHAPS BECAUSE HE'S DONE SO MUCH OF ALL THROUGH THE NIGHT AND HE'S HAD HIS FILL !!! :-)

He looks healthy and happy thanks for the pics.. LOVE feeling IS HAPPIER THAN HATE feeling .

FREE BRAD. Now.

"IF BRAD'S NOT SMILING IN THE PHOTOS ITS PERHAPS BECAUSE HE'S DONE SO MUCH OF ALL THROUGH THE NIGHT AND HE'S HAD HIS FILL !!! :-)"

LOL! Can you imagine what those two do behind thd doors? They better not ever make a sex video. Someone will steal it and sell it. And it'll be a bigger seller than even Pamela Anderson and Tommy Lee.

Sorry for going there, but I know that even in MAMS the test audience wanted more loving and less fighting in the scenes.

I think Brad is trying not to flaunt his feelings for Angie to spare Jennifer from going apeshit. The girl can barely keep it together as she is bawling her eyes out.

TALK ABOUT FUGLY!

http://www.tombraiderchronicles.com/images/ajolie_unhcr_washington_01/screen2.jpg

Angelina looks too old for her age. She looks more like she's 40 than 30. Even without the wrinkles. I guess all that smoking she did before, lugging around those kids, flying airplanes and stealing other people's men isn't working for her.

Yuck! Talk about wrinkles! | February 24, 2006 06:13 PM ,

I agree that AJ has some quite obvious wrinkles around her eyes, but as u know, people who laughs a lot tend to develop those. AJ is now a mother and she seems to be genuinely happy in her role as a mom, smiling and laughing a lot in some of her pictures with maddox. Plus, as her role of UNHCR, she travels to places that i most certainly sure is not friendly for ur skin, like africa's hot climate, but nevertheless, she does what she must do, regardless of the fact that it will add some more wrinkles to her face. Would u prefer a woman who is more obessessed with her skin condition instead of helping people in need???? Myeself, i can't say that i have been actively involved in any social work, but i admire people who do. They seen more insjustice, bad things and horrible conditions than most people, if they are as passionate in their cause of AJ, they will surely also develop some wrinkles caused by stress or emotions.

Bottom line, yes, i can see the wrinkles in AJ's face, but to me, it made her more beautiful and more humane, as it shows that she is experiencing life instead of trying to stop mother nature and being obsessed by her looks. If she's that kind of person, she will not be AJ that many people loves.

In my opinion, Angelina is GORGEOUS!

Beauty is in the eyes of the beholder.

Anybody who knows anything about skin aging knows that women begin to develop wrinkles in their skin in their late 20s.

I've seen Jessica Simpson gaining fine wrinkles already. I've seen young Sasha Cohen have little lines around her eyes.

It's nothing! Angelina is still about the most gorgeous woman in the world. She's constantly at the top of most beautiful people lists.

She is beautiful indeed, with or without the cosmetics.

Tink,

I love your commnet.
I also thought how great AJ's smile is.
When she smile, whole of her face smiles.
you know what I mean?
She does not care if she makes winkles when she smiles.

laura,

great post. like people with many points

pitt is old news. he`ll be no further headline anymore with ang in the future.
look how ugly he turned. hís same old boots, hat and faces.

i dont respect his work and acts anmore, since he needs a woman to define his looks and moves. maddox has more personality than this 40 ear old man.

brad was better with jen than this manipulative ang

Brad Pitt has never looked more manly than this in his life... He looks much better with dark hair and colors. It suits his character and age much more... Still yummy and they fit perfectly. It is a great couple...

i have ever seen such as a pair they look like they are born to be together so in love their so lucky..je l'éspere pour moi

I agree anonymous. He looks more like a man and not some "object". He likes this look or he wouldn't have it. He’s on vacation from work. How many of you even get dressed on the weekends when you have nothing to do? You shower (at least I hope you do) grab some house cloths and you relax; you go out in the yard, hang out with the boys or girls. You may run to the store…whatever you’re not dressed to the nines. Why should Brad be any different. He’s an actor that’s his JOB not his life.

And to those who seem to think he won't last long. I hate to be the one to break this to you but:

1. Pitt has already said "Acting is a young man's game. I don't think I'll be doing this much longer. My mind is on other things now." He never planned to act into his dotage. He’s producing more now and making a hell of a lot of money doing it. (Willie Wonka and Troy both blockbuster 200+ million and still counting)

2. He has never liked being defined by his looks which is why he takes a hiatus from the "Golden Boy" look every so often. This is NOT the first time Brad has gone off and done the wild thing with his looks.

3. Brad Pitt is a legend now, just like (God forbid) Tom Cruise, Michael Jackson, Madonna, Janet Jackson, Cher, Bono, and yes even Angelina is on her way to becoming one. Bradley will be around for a hell of a long time, whether he acts or not.

4. At 42 Brad Pitt looks younger then quite a few men in Hollywood a good 5-10 years younger than he is. So please stop the age BS. We all know that when it comes time to shoot the new Ocean's 13 he'll look as golden and young as ever. And as “old” and “horrible” as some of you claim he looks you, I and everyone here knows that you would probably p*ss your pants if he ever walked up to you and said “hello!”

5. Brad Pitt can look anyway he wants to because it's his body, his hair, and his LIFE. Not to mention when you are one of Hollywood's most powerful men, you are not only a commodity but what you do in your down time is accepted as "personal choice". Get it?

You have nothing but harsh things to say about him and Angelina, but would you be able to stand the same critique of your own life? Or how about Jennifer? Would she be able to even touch 1...just one of the points I made? No she wouldn't.

Find her board...or if you aren't a supposed Jen fan then find a disrespect Brad or Brangelina site to spew your nonsense on. I'm more than sure there's one out there.

Just GOOGLE it!

i totally agree with RICA

merci safa,

je l'éspere pour moi

et moi aussi

Rica,Well said.I agree with you as well.

EEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWW!! He looks like he smells!

Rica...where's the fanfic?

Brad didn't wait very long. That's how some men are. They think with there dick. I FEEL SORRY FOR ANGIE AND HER TATTOS....ICK.... SHE RUINED A BEAUTIFUL BODY. I still think Jennifer Aniston is not playing with a full deck, how could you let this wonderful man get away?....hmmmmmm. I am confused.

brad good looking with ange, what a kind of dream is that...?
he wears the same stuff all the time, he is rich, get clothes, put down the glasses. you look wasted all the time.

jennifer tmes were better, he had the je ne sais quoi

Hey 'me again'

What's up girl!!!

You know I actually did write something but it's not hot...it's just the beginning of sorts. I believe someone asked me to start at the beginning so I did. But it's the very begining with Simon, Akiva and the whole getting Angie to do it after Nichole dropped out.

I liked the part in "Interview With A Vampire" when Brad Pitt's character tells Antonio's character that as tempting as his invitation is that he stay and be Antonio's companion, that he was afraid that I MUST DECLINE!!!" So, all of you ladies.....Jennifer Aniston included....be ready to be tossed aside. Mr. Pitt is spoken for. And don't you forget it.

Rica | February 27, 2006 11:16 AM

I didn't see the fic on this post...I'll just wait until you do the whole saga

Brad and Angelina are both beautiful people. I believe they make a better pair than when with Jennifer.

Choosing the perfect Mrs. Smith...

July 2003

Apologizing to his family, Hollywood director Doug Liman answered his cell phone,. “This better be good, I’m in the middle of great Chinese dinner with my family.”

“Hi Doug. It’s Brad.” Brad Pitt’s smooth dulcet voice floated over the line. “I’m sorry to interrupt your dinner. If you want you can give me a call back later on.”

“No…no, now’s fine.” He stood and motioned to his dinner companions. Walking over to the entrance. “So what’s up?”

“Well, I’m sorry but I’m going to have to pass on ‘Mr. and Mrs.” Brad apologized.

“Ahhh…don’t tell me that. Come on Brad…”

Brad broke in. “Look Si, with Nichole dropping out and the issues with the script, perhaps it just wasn’t meant to be.”

Simon knew he wouldn’t be able to change Brad’s mind, so he thanked Brad for calling and rejoined his family; the joy of the evening gone. He’d figure something out. ‘Mr. and Mrs. Smith’ would happen and with Brad Pitt.

~~~~~~~~

(Portions of this conversation are actual quotes from ‘Entertainment Weekly’ Issue #823)

So we’ve lost Nicole.” Akiva announced.

Doug Liman winced at the news. “Yeah and now Brad’s pulled out. But with the right costar he’ll most likely come back aboard.”

Screenwriter, Simon Kinberg looked as though he would cry. “What Nichole and Brad? Why?” He could see all his hard work circling the drain and it hurt.

Lucas Foster, also an executive producer for the film, cleared his throat before taking over. “It seems that Ms. Kidman’s ‘Stepford Wives’ shoot is going to run into our start date. Apparently they just started shooting and they are running ten weeks behind schedule. She had no choice but to bow out. Brad feels like fate is working against us. ”

Doug held his hand up stopping Brad’s response. “Well we do have a few other options.” He began tossing out names. There’s the ex factor, Gwyneth Paltrow.”

Simon shook his head. “Look that’s a great idea but Brad’s human and even if he were game for it, it’s wrong of us to put him in a situation where he’s going to have to relive the demons of a past relationship. That’s just a little bit toomad-scientist.”

Doug saw his point and continued the name game. “Okay, how about Cate Blanchett? She definitely has the look. Remember the photo ad she did as a spy?”

“Not available, she’s working on ‘The Aviator’” Akiva answered.

“Catherine Zeta-Jones?”

“No, I don’t think that she’s quite what we’re looking for.” Akiva answered again. “She’s gorgeous…but I just can’t see her in that role.”

“I agree with Akiva. Besides isn’t she working with Brad on ‘Ocean’s Twelve’ ? That’d just be cinematic suicide.” Lucas shuddered.

Simon agreed as well. “Yeah, I mean that would be over kill. Besides we don’t know what type of chemistry they will have.”

“It’s Brad Pitt. Most women have chemistry with him.” Lucas countered.

“Or for him.” Akiva muttered.

Simon skipped two names and pulled the last one. “How about Angelina Jolie?”

Silence filled the room as the men mulled over the last choice. Akiva was the first to respond. “Hmmm…now that would be something. What’s she working on now? I know she’s busy, she’s always busy.”

Doug smiled. “She’s finishing ‘Alexander’, after that she’s free.”

“I don’t know…this doesn’t seem to be her type of movie. She likes the darker roles.” Lucas tossed in. “You sure we can get her?”

Doug smiled. “We can ask.”

Simon almost crowed with excitement. Angelina Jolie…wow! Who better to costar with Hollywood’s hottest leading man, then it’s hottest leading lady?”

“Let’s hope she’s up for the challenge.” Lucas murmured.

Akiva laughed. “Angelina’s always up for a challenge.”

~~~~~~~

August 2003

“Brad, how are you?” The voice of Akiva Goldsman, one of the executive producers for ‘Mr and Mrs. Smith, sounded over the line.

“Fine Akiva, thanks and you?” Brad finished purchasing the latest ‘Architectural Digest’ and walked out of the book store.

“Fine thanks.” Akiva moved on quickly. “Brad, we need to meet with you. Can you make a long lunch today?”

Moving on to his Confederate F124 Hellcat, Brad agreed. “Sure, my schedules pretty clear, what time?” Brad asked, a bit curious but not worried.

“How’s one-thirty sound?”

“That’s fine. I’ll see you then.” Brad ended the call, put his helmet on and drove toward the home he shared with his wife Jennifer.

~~~~~~~~

“Brad, we have some good news regarding ‘Mr. and Mrs. Smith. We have a candidate for Jane. “ Doug offered. “Our choices were narrowed down to Catherine Zeta-Jones, Cate Blanchett and Angelina Jolie.”

Brad’s listened intently. “And?”

“Well Cate is busy and we just thought that you and Catherine in another movie back to back would be overkill. So we decided to offer the role to Angelina.” Doug watched Brad’s expression for some sign of agreement.

Brad nodded slowly. “Angelina…hmmm…she’s good. Has she accepted?”

“We’re still waiting. She’s not sure that she can do justice. I told her to give you a call.” Doug offered. “I thought…you know, that maybe you could kind of talk her into it. That is if you agree with our choice.”

Brad laughed. “Oh I agree and if she’s willing to do it. I’ll definitely sign back on.”

Akive smiled. “Good she’ll be calling with in the next day or two. The quicker we can get this settled, the sooner we can get started. We are already behind schedule.”

“That’s fine with me. I’ll help her out as much as I can.” Brad added. Smiling he thought, ‘Angelina Jolie’ hmmm…nice choice.

~~~~~~~~~~~

“Hi Brad?” The husky voice spoke quietly over the line. “It’s Angelina, how are you?”

“Hi, I’m fine and you?” Brad responded. The woman definitely had a voice.
“Fine…umm…Akiva and Doug told me you’d help me out with an opinion about te material.” Her thoughts similar to his, she’d always found his voice sexy.

Not wanting to disturb the movie he, Jennifer, Courtney were watching, Brad moved outside to the pool patio. “Did you get a chance to read through the script?”

“Yes, I like the script, it’s pretty funny, but I’m not big on comedy.” Angelina sat down on her sofa, grabbed the script, and began leafing through it.

“Come on. I’ve seen your work. I think that you can pull it off.” For whatever reason, he couldn’t explain, he wanted her on this film. “You’ve conquered more genres a film then I can count. I know you can do this. It’s more of a dark comedy anyway.”

Her sultry laugh engulfed him in velvet. “I do know dark, It’s just the comedy part that I’m uncomfortable with.”

“In my honest opinion Angelina, I really believe you can do this.” Brad urged her on, “I doubt you’ve ever backed down from a challenge in your life. Why start now?”

Angelina thought it over for a moment. Brad waited almost anxiously. “Alright. I accept. Let’s hope it’s not a mistake.”

Brad breathed a silent sigh of relief. “I have nothing but positive feelings about this.”

“Hmmm…yeah sure. Thanks for the input. I guess I’ll see you at the read through.” Angelina ended the call in true Angelina fashion. “Oh and Bradley, please don’t call me Angelina, the name’s Angie.”

Laughing softly Brad answered. “Alright, see you at the read through, Angie.”

Meet the Smiths…

(Some quotes are from Entertainment Weekly issue 823 and Vanity Fair issue)

January 2004
Filming begins

“Hey Angie!” Brad flagged Angelina down.

Angelina waved back, waiting for Brad and his companion to reach her. “Hi!”

Brad made the introductions. “Jen this is Angelina…Angie.” Brad smile excitedly at Angelina. “Angie this is my wife Jennifer.”

Angelina offered Jennifer her hand. “Hi, how are you?”

Jennifer smiled in return. “I’m fine. How are you?”

“Fine, thank you.”

“You know, Brad is looking forward to this movie, he’s very excited to be working with you.” Jennifer added.

“Me too. I called him for his opinion and ended up letting him talk me into it. Let’s hope it works out.” Angelina offered.

Jennifer agreed. “I hope you enjoy working with him?”

“I’m sure I will. He seems like quite a character.” Angelina rolled her eyes skyward and threw her head back, her laughter filling the air, the husky peals ensnaring Brad on the spot. “I’ll see you inside Bradley. It was nice meeting you Jennifer.”

“You too.” Jennifer waited until Angelina was out of earshot, before turning to Brad, her smile gone. “You didn’t mention that she’d called you. When was this?”

Brad’s exasperated sigh filled the air. “Come on Jen, It was a long time ago. Doug and Akiva told me to try and convince her to do the movie. That’s all.” Brad glanced around. He hated it when she made a scene. “Besides you were there the day she called. You, me, Courtney and David were watching Pirates of the Caribbean, when she called. I got up and left the room.”

“No you left the house.” Jen insisted.

“Yeah I did! So I wouldn’t disturb the movie.” Brad threw his hands up and lowered his voice to a low growl. “It was a five-minute phone call, not a dinner date gone over.”

“Why didn’t you mention it?” Jennifer asked, sticking to the subject.

“You saw me get up and leave. Why didn’t you just ask me who it was? Did you even care?” Brad was reaching his tolerance level. “Look…we can’t talk about this now. I have to go to work and so do you. I’ll see you later.” He turned and walked away, leaving an angry Jennifer in his wake.

~~~~~~~~~~

Doug sat back and watched his two stars. He just couldn’t believe that he had two of Hollywood’s biggest stars sitting in front him. “So Brad…Angelina, any thoughts on the script?”

Brad spoke up first. “Yeah, I have an issue with the scene where Jane grab’s the golfing trophy and is about to club him over the head with it and he says…” Brad glanced at Angelina, who picked up where he left off.

“No! Don’t, I’m only the custodian of that for the year!” Angie nodded. “Yeah, I think that’s just a bit too goofy for these two. They’re assassins and the over all tone is a bit serious…not so slap stick.”

Brad laughed, glancing at Angie he continued. “Good word choice.”

“Thank you…” The low ring of Angelina’s cell phone interrupted the jovial air of the room. “I’m sorry.” Angie apologized and left the room.

Akiva glanced at Simon. “Did Angie sign off on her Amenities Ryder?”

Simon nodded, leafing through papers, until he found what he was looking for. “Yes she okayed everything. She really just wanted to make sure that Maddox will be okay. One part-time nanny, trailer equipped for her son. She’ll be bringing him to the set with her everyday. Other than that she didn’t really ask for much.”

“Are we supplying?” Akiva asked. He like low maintenance stars and Brad and Angie were two of the lowest maintenance he’d met; considering their caliber and status. He liked that. So he wanted to make sure that they were happy.

“Yeah.” Simon confirmed just as Angelina returned to the room.

Angelina returned to the room. “Sorry about that. Maddox is home from school. If I don’t pick him up he makes Holly call me so that he can speak to me and tell me about his day.”

Brad leaned forward his attention caught at the mention of Angelina’s son. “How old is your son?”

“Maddox is two and a half. He’ll be three in August. He’s my little man.” A sweet and gentle smile lit Angelina’s face as she spoke.

Brad watched the glow and couldn’t help but think of how beautiful Angelina truly was; inside and out. Do you have a picture of him?”

“Do I?” Angelina reached for purse and pulled a slim wallet from its side pocket. Flipping it open to the picture section, she showed off her colorful photos with pride.

Brad looked through the pictures. He smiled whimsically at the small laughing child. His favorite photo, one of Maddox and Angelina caught in an Eskimo kiss. The look of love between both mother and child somehow soothed him. This was what he wanted…what he’d yearned for over the past four years. He wanted that to be him in the photo. Sighing he handed the wallet back to Angelina. “He’s beautiful.”

Taking the wallet, Angelina noticed the look of longing on Brad’s face. “Thank you.” She couldn’t think of anything else to say. So she busied herself with putting the wallet away.

Brad shook off the feeling of old regret. “He must be a handful…yeah?”

“Oh yeah. Lately he’s been going through his super hero phase.” Leaning in closer to Brad she whispered loudly. “He thinks he’s Superman or Batman…or Spiderman. Either one will do these days.” Angelina shook her and snorted. “Yesterday I caught him trying to fly off the back of the couch with one of the bath towels tied around his neck.”

Brad laughed, living vicariously through Angie’s words. He could just picture the scene. That’s great…that’s great!”

Doug broke into the conversation. “So where were we?”

Simon answered. “The golfing trophy debacle.”

“Right…right”

TO BE CONT….

February 28, 2006 -- LOOK for Brad Pitt to become a U.N. goodwill ambassador, just like his woman, Angelina Jolie. A spy overheard Brad with two European men as they quaffed Pilsner Urquell beer at the World Bar in Trump World Tower the other night and yakked about an upcoming event at the U.N. across the street. While pregnant Jolie is in Paris with kids Maddox and Sahara, lonely Pitt chatted for an hour with the diplomats before leaving in a limo with a police escort. The star caught the U.N. bug last month when Jolie dragged him to the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland. U.N. chief Kofi Annan must figure two stars are better than one for fund-raising.

Fighting the attraction…

“To dodging bullets.” Jane held her shot glass of Tequila up.

“To dodging bullets.” John tapped his shot glass into hers. Tossing the fiery liquid down before slamming the glass onto the table.

Jane stood slowly, a seductive smile gracing her full, luscious lips. Holding her glass in one hand she leaned in giving her companion a glimpse of her plump breast as she moved past him. “So it speaks, but does it dance?” Her husky voice was like a sirens song leading him to his doom.

As the tribal tones of “Mondo Bong” filled the air of the Cantina, John watched her glide all the way to the dirt covered dance floor, John finally inched his way over to her. Watching him as intently as a predator does its prey, Jane finished her drink, tossed the shot glass in a close can fire, wipe the moisture from her mouth and held her arms high above her head; her hips swaying seductively. Finally reaching out with one hand, luring him, drawing him into the dance.

He grasped her hand and drew her into his arms. The momentum brought Jane flat against John’s chest. Raising her arms, she wrapped them slowly around his neck. John lowered his hand casually caressing her waist as he lightly pressed her hips forward into the cradle of his. He began leading her into seduction’s dance; the floral smell of her hair, his lips against her soft neck, whispers in her ear, the feel of her curved bottom arousing his over sensitized groin. One turn and his lips danced dangerously close to her full slightly parted lips…waiting.

“Cut!!!!” Doug Liman shouted. “Angie, Brad…that was great. We’ll keep this last take.” Pointing to the table they’d left he barked instructions. “We’re going to shoot the kiss, so stay in character guys.”

Brad took hold of Angie’s hand and led her over to the table. Sitting down, he pulled her onto his lap. “You’re a pretty good dancer.”

Angie laughed. “Thanks…I try. All those years of pole dancing are paying off.”

Brad enjoyed hearing her laugh. This moment wasn’t sexual, it was sweet. Something he hadn’t experienced in a long time. If only they’d known the furor a photo of this moment would cause. They would know soon enough.

Angie was analyzing her own feelings. She liked Brad…she really liked him…he was…sweet.

~~~~~~~~~~

April 2004
Other Obligations

“So what are you going to do for the next couple of months?” Brad asked Angelina. They were hanging out with the cast and crew at one of the local bars. He watched Angelina take her shot, she was good. He had to up his A-game, if he wanted to win this match.

Angelina straightened from the pool table watching the balls disappear. Smiling and cocking an eyebrow. She could taste victory. “I have UN obligations. Mad and I are off to Lebanon and Afghanistan.”

“Really? What’s the situation over there?” Brad’s interest was peaked. They’d spoken several times about their individual humanitarian efforts. He knew he had a ways to go before he reached her level of dedication. But he was willing to make the journey. He’d been speaking to Bono about the One campaign and the DATA organization and what he could do after Mr. and Mrs. Smith finished shooting.

“Refugees…disenfranchised and dying to survive.” Angelina began to explain her agenda through the UNHCR and what they all hoped to accomplish.

Brad listened intently. “Wow! And I’m just going to make a movie.” He watched her smile widen. “Watch this.” Brad performed a pool trick that ended with all the balls finding their way to the same hole.

Angelina was amazed and that was no small feat, she was rarely surprised these days. “How did you do that?”

Setting the balls up again; Brad moved around to her side. “Here, hold the pole.” He had to make adjustments because Angelina was left-handed. Wrapping his arms around her he began to show her how to execute the shot. “Pull back just a bit…” He leaned in and caught a whiff of her perfume. His fingers moved up the pool stick to lie directly on top of Angelina’s; caressing lightly. He had to stop…he knew it. Resting his face against the top of her head, he murmured. “This is getting dangerous.”

Angelina leaned back for a moment before extricating herself slowly. Turning around to stare directly into Brad’s eyes she answered. ““No…it’s wrong and we need to stop it here…now.” Looking around she found her jacket. “I need to get home. Thanks for the game and the trick.” She grabbed her purse and left the bar.

“My treat.” Brad answered, watching her go.

~~~~~~~~~

May 2004
Premiere of Troy

She promised him she would attend the premiere and so she did. Entering unnoticed through a side door she found a seat in the back, the left corner. She watched him glance surreptitiously around; knowing he was looking for her. She watched his eyes light upon her. He waved a bit. Smiling, she sent him an answering wave.

Brad finally saw her. She was sitting in the back by herself. He hadn’t realized he was holding his breath until he released it at the sight of her. He knew she’d only come because he’d asked her. Friends…that’s what they called themselves, but friends was much to simple a word to describe what was growing between them. It wasn’t sexual…it was comfort…understanding…acceptance. But the tabloids were having a field day and all they needed was just a peek at Angelina here and all hell would break loose.

The lights dimmed and the movie began. Angelina watched as a naked Brad filled the screen. “Hmmm…Jen you’re a lucky girl. I hope you appreciate what you have.”

Once the movie ended, Brad looked back to find Angelina gone; as if she had never been there. He had to return to the ‘Ocean’s Twelve’ shoot on Monday, so seeing her was out. God his days were getting long and his nights longer.

He missed her and Maddox, he’d gotten use to seeing them everyday and now he was finding himself lonely without them.

“You have a wife Bradley, concentrate on her. “His inner voice instructed, but was he listening?

~~~~~~~~~

August 2004
Shooting resumes

“Braddy!” Catching sight of Brad entering the set, Maddox broke away from his mother, running as fast as his little three year old legs could carry him.

Brad had just enough time to drop his bag, before the toddler launched himself into Brad’s arms. He’d bonded with Maddox and become close friends with the child’s mother. He’d missed them…both of them. Swooping Maddox into the air, Brad laughed aloud. God why couldn’t he have this at home? “Hey Mad! How are you? Good?”

“Un huh. I missed you. You went away and I didn’t see you...for a long time.” Maddox pouted.

Brad jostled the child around, eliciting the manic bout of giggling that always left both he and Angie in amused tears “Remember I had to go finish another movie.” He smiled at Angelina as she joined them. “Hi.”

“Hi yourself. How was the shoot?” Angelina reached over to caressed her son’s back.

“Great! We’re done. No more re-shoots.” Returning his attention to the bouncing toddler in his arms. “Did someone have a birthday? I can’t remember the name of the bot.”

“Me!” The child bobbed up and down.

Pretending not to hear the child, Brad continued. “Who’s three years old?”

“Me!” The child laughed.

“So that’s why there’s a big gift in my trailer!” Brad laughed, hugging the boy close.

Maddox looked over at his mother. “Mommy can I get my gift?”

Angelina smiled indulgently, her love for the child evident in every line of her face. “Yes you can ‘get’ your gift.” Leaning forward she kissed Maddox on the forehead, not realizing how close she was to Brad until she glanced up from the kiss. Their lips a mere inch or so apart. “Welcome back.”

“I’m glad to be back. I missed you and Mad.” He stared at her for what seemed minutes, but was only seconds.

Clearing her throat she stepped away. “Why don’t we go and see what Brad bought you.”

She knew that sooner or later, they were going to have to talk and that’s what she feared the most.

TO BE CONTINUED…

Brava Rica !

I was watching MAMS (for the 100th time) last night and wondered...

Was the reshoot the Bogotá scene? They seem very comfortable there. Also most mags show that picture trying to prove the affair...but if that's a reshoot then they were together at that time right? If so, that would explain why they were holding hands when the director called "CUT"

Can someone let me know if that was the reshoot or not...thanks ladies

hey "Me Again'

Those were actual reshoots. They brought them (Brad and Angie) back because they wanted to add more romance into the movie.

I always thought that they were just in character, I in no way thought that these two were just boldly holding hands in front of God knows how many people, but never off of set? Hmmmm....makes you think doesn't it.

Rica! Rica! Rica!
just keep up...

***RICA***

Well then that's why the chemistry was so right for that particular scene. They’re both like they want each other but trying to hold back. And this reshoot was in March or April and was it around the time Brad moved out of the house? Now what about the ending scene when they were very relaxed with each other and the therapist...was that a reshoot as well?

Did you see the size of the shoes in the ending scene w/therapist….man!

Thanks Rica for the fic and information. I guess our next installment will be tomorrow mid-day right?

Midday tomorrow it is!!!
Thank you!!!

You know 'Me Again' I believe the reshoots were done in late January and February. Brad and Jen sepearted in January. And Brad seemed to be a lot more relaxed around that time (February). Yes, they had originally shot the scene but decided to reshoot because the movie's original ending was the two of them in Italy and there was actually a baby. But Doug Liman said that he didn't like that ending it semed a bit too final, so they reshot the office scene as the the ending but leaving the door open. According to Akiva Goldsman, the deleted scenes for the Italian shoot, the baby scenes and extended love scene, extended dance scene, extended store fight scene, and the Bogata dance scene and 'morning after' scenes (both extended) were supposed to be on the DVD. I Guess we were ROBBED!!!

I also read that the love scene was a little to intense and with all the publicity regarding the "so called affair" they took that scene out. They didn't want that to keep the JA fans and others away...so it was left out. I will try to find th article...but you and the rest of the regulars I don't feel a need to prove my every word.

Great idea on your part to keep posting the fics here where no one really visits anymore...not as many haters here.

Did JJ give you my email address? It may come a time where you won't be able to send the fic on JJ's site and you can just email it to us girls directly...if it's okay with them...it's okay with me.

oooooh, you guys are simply naughty!!! I couln't turn away. Thankyou for the pleasure. Is the word enthralling appropriate?

hi girls!!!I've been reading this post for quite sometime now but I never really bothered to make a comment. I simply enjoy your views. But my goodness RICA, luv, you made this really interesting. I absolutely adore this family. Thanks JJ and Rica, I am a big fan. Till tom then

That's cool too!

I'm wondering when Jared will just stop all commenting now that we have some...boisterous...posters. So I will be glad to email the fic to you all when that happens. Jared hasn't passed on anything yet, though. But I sent him an email about the fics and whether they bothered him and he still hasn't responded, so he may be bogged down with work and hasn't really had time to go through his emails.

We'll figure something out. I'm glad you guys are enjoying it. Thanks!

Emailed you, Rica!

Hey Rica! Jared said he would send you my e-mail address so I can keep up with the fanfics :)

I'm trying to get everything together so I can read it from the beginning so I have to go back to the Jen/Brad Split: No Deal thread.

I missed some good posts on BAMZ Paris yesterday. Got hit with the flu :(

Cool fanfic rica. when are you doing another one? Cant wait to see were you go with these stories next.

Hey I got the email addresses! Thanks Jared!
I hope you are feeling better Dolphingirl.

Thanks, Raqchel, I usually post one a day in the afternoon. I post on this particular thread because there's less traffic.

rica, thank you! this is sooooooooooooooooooooooooo good. i know, i keep saying the same thing, KEEP IT COMING!!!!

IS it just me or have alot of crazzies started commenting on the site. I dont even post much but I have been checking the site out for about 3 months. what happened to the better days when their were just a few crazy people saying stupid stuff. Now half of what these people are posting is just mean.

Last week marked the beginning of all this madness. It's like someone put them all on a Coach Bus and drove them over to this site and forgot to pick them up at the end of the day.

Let's just hope their on vacation from their own raunchy sites and will leave soon. Hey I know, if we stand still, shut out the lights and pretend we're not home, maybe they'll go away.

It's not just you Raqchel. I haven't been on here that long but I've seen a serious rise in meanspiritedness and vulgarity recently. If we leave and that's all that is left what is won? I'd rather just ignore it.

Thanks Rica. I'm still letting the flu run it's course. It's been warm here in the midwest the past two days but I have the chills and no energy. I need to stay in bed but I've slept so much now I'm not tired. Just drained.

Where are you from dolphingirl? Ilived in the Midwest for 32 years.

Uhhhh...it sounds like the flu. I had it a few weeks back and it kept me weak and tired for two weeks. Get a lot of rest. That's all you can really do until it runs its course. Fluids!!!

JJ please forward my e-mail address to Rica as well....hook on the fanfic, it's fantastic, thank you Rica for the fanfic.

Rica,
Its keeps getting better and better each time.
Thanks for the fanfic. Is it ok, if I post your story on one the brangelina boards? I promise to give you full credit. If its not ok, I understand. I just want others to enjoy this great read.

JJ please forward my email to Rica as well the fan fics are great.

Hey Lola,

Please feel free to post it. Its for entertainment and fun and as long as it has readers and no one becomes offended or offensive I'm cool. So go for it!

And thank you Nancy. You guys are gonna make me blush...(shuffles her feet. looking bashful)!!!

:-)

You girls have a great evening. Same place 2morrow!!!!

Nancy...not to get all in your business...but

I posted a question several days ago regarding your relationship with BP...I can't remember if you're the one who was married to a friend of the family or not...but I wanted to ask you, because if you are the person I think I directed my question and I hope you're not pulling my leg, Is Mr. Pitt actually that nice in person or is he REALLY just a good actor?

Some interviews or articles I've read he made the statement "I'm just a f*&^)%^* actor..." and it seemed like he was really a A-hole...so I just wanted to know if he is as kind as you...i think it was you...said he was. I know his fellow actors say he is...but people do tend to NOT TELL THE TRUTH in hollywood...

I'm just trying to figure out why he would stay in a relationship so long if he wasn't happy? Did he really enjoy the spotlight and attention that much? Is this the real thing for him?

***RICA***

You did get my information...right?

Can anyone tell me where that other site Rica told us where we could fine more FanFics. Was it laineygossip.com? If so, I don't see any fanfics there...will i need to become a member first?

Nice rica, luv your fan fics, keep it up. I was wondering are you sending the fan fics by e-mail?

no me again, it's must be someone else....actually, I have a sister that work for an entertaintment/fashion magazine, my sister's boss/editor is one of BP best friend...

Rica, I'm in the Show Me state.

Ran over to Lainey Gossip and read her three part Erotica,now this Rica if you remember is all we were saying,that physically they are very beautiful,and it's hard not to look at them and not have erotic thoughts,and I was crucified for it causing me to have my(hope to be soon forgotten)
meltdown. LOL

DolphinGirl I hope you feel better. For someone who travels a lot my geography is bad.Which one is the Show Me State?

Me Again! | March 1, 2006 04:52 PM

to answer your question if I may regarding if BP is really a nice person. Personally I don't know, but my sister think so...she have met him many times at her office, she said that he is very down to earth, never demand for anything, always joke around with the people in the office, very polite and nice....having said that, I also want to state that my sister is PB biggest fan.

Ange, missouri is the show me state. I'm think i'm just gonna wait for a new thread. The Maddox Judo one isn't very interesting.

Me again to answer your question . I wasn't going to say anymore about it but I guess it won't hurt. When one of you spend a lot of time out of town it slows the process of a relationship. It take time for you to realize how alienated you might be. Then you keep thinking things will change. Your mate keeps making excuses and you wait for things to change for them and for you.. You start living parrallel lives . When there are children there is a good reason to try to work things through , but when there aren't? It is always assumed that it is the man's fault when a marriage does work. But that is not true. In this case, it was Jennifer who chose not to make the marriage a priority . She is in a race with time. She only has a small window of time to make it before she is too old . Let's face it . If she had the talent she would have been in movies long long ago... a lot of starts started on tv and moved quickly to movies because of their talent and looks. Jennifer is not exceptional in either . Her marriage to Brad opened doors that only nepotism and talent open . Without talent, family or spouse. Even those closes to her say how ambitious she is....too the point of obsession.

Brad really thought he and Jen would start a family as soon as they got married. That is why he asked her. because she was so into the idea of having children with him . She is not the first woman to fool a man into marriage with a child; except she dangled it like a carrot and a starving rabbit. She was so focused on her needs that she stopped to consider Brad's needs. Brad was always doing for her . But she never noticed what he did only what he did not do....

The word someone said about her. Someone who was clueless who she was other than Brad's wife. was that she was not "genuine" and about having to watch one;s back around her.

I do hope you understand that I have never met her and this is from what people who have told me....

As I wrote before , I don't care one way or another who he is with as long as they make him happy. But I can't stand by and say nothing when people who only read tabloids and gossip and do not really know anything about him say such nasty and untruthful things about someone who does not deserve them. I do not know much about Angelina except what I have read here and there. But he looks happier than I have seen him in a long , long time. If Angelina is the reason why he has come back to life and is doing things like learning to fly , living in Paris , getting involved in world charity. then I for one am happy for him . I sure wish someone like that could come into my life. LOL (As I go outside to pick up the dog doo doo before mowing the grass.)

Ps. I am the one whose ex is a friend of the family.

rica....you're so good.....girl....you really need to put these fanfics together as a book...i am going to be one of your first buyer!!

Thanks anon 7:05pm for sharing.

Hey anonymous and nancy, I really appreciate the insights you've given in face of all the crazy gossip mill mostly machinated by apparently Jennifer's camp.

As I've told nancy, I understand how you have to respect the confidentiality with your sources, but I always appreciate the separation of fact from lies that are spewed out there.

A lot of what you both say back up the inside information that Lainey has gotten as well - though I trust you guys implicitly more than Lainey (you guys are here to respond back). But I must admit I have questions, which strangely enough escape me now. I won't ever try to be too intrusive.

I'd like to summarize and roundup Lainey's gossip for us to discuss. In so doing, we should be able to track where Lainey nailed it and where she missed a beat.

Or should we consider taking our insider discussion off-board, as with some kind of mailing list? Again, I don't want it to get be too intrusive into their privacy but more to clear the rumors.

Gawd, can you tell I've become a gossip hound? To imagine, Brad and Angelina didn't capture my attention until the pregnancy rumors arose sometime in the fall. Yes, I really didn't follow them even during the early stages of their romance.

Rica,you are the TOPS! LOVE your fanfic. Hope you will continue your fanfic on this thread esp now that the haters seem to have move on to other more recent thread.

rica, enjoy reading your fanfic, you're really sooooooooo good ! can't wait for the 2nd episode.

I was on Lainey.com last night basically starting from the beginning in 2004 now I'm up to 09/2005...I had to go to sleep....anyway I wonder if there any truth with JA and VV cheating prior to the 01/2005 separation? Reading Lainey...she did mentioned they had lunch 02/2005...I'm assuming to discuss "The Break-Up." If so, why? Is that normal for co-stars to do this or was it to get the scoop on BP/AJ during filming?

If all reports are true...this man (BP) truly loved his ex-wife to put up with the bs regarding career and family...he loved till he just looked stupid (not that he is) but come on at some point he had to know she was lying to him...don't you think?

Also, with reading (and again how true are these articles...me don't know but anyway) he would only get involve with hollywood people and he for the most part get involve with his leading ladies...look at the track record (found that one on Eonline). Could it be he doesn't trust outside that arena? Too afraid to expose himself to regular folks like us? I don't know just wondering.

I have a gut feeling that the cheating aspect really never occurred for the simple fact of how most written interviews talk about how the GP affair really hurt BP and with the divorce papers being private I'm thinking (of course I may be all together wrong on this but anyway) that they had a pre-nup that may have had something stating adultry...I may be wrong. As I mention in one my early post...that's just been killing me as to why their divorce paperwork is closed for eyes to see...maybe that's typical with hollywood divorces. This is the first one I've followed so closely.

Anyway...time for me to get the kids up and get myself ready for work (45min drive)...I'll log back on when I get to my job which well that's another story.

He won't you gals come to New Orleans and give my city some business...we surly could use it!!!

I wonder why Z doesn't get to go many places? She's always with the nanny...what's up with that. I can see AJ loves her kids, but it seems like this middle child is getting the short end of the stick...I don't mean to hate I just feel I'm saying something no one else wants to really say. It's always AJ and Mad, BP and Mad with an occasional Z here and there. Just look back at the photos we have seen...which they could be doing something in the apt together or maybe the paps didn't catch. But when my kids were her age we were at the library reading books even though they couldn't read, in the park in the walker, crawling in the grass, on the swing (you know the kind for babies), etc...they never do that with her. They have pap laws where they can't get so many feet in range of the stars...so why not do these "normal" things with your baby girl...I don't know maybe it's just me.

If the biological child is a girl...then heavens help her.

I just wanted to get that off my chest.

Off my soapbox...I think she or someone she knows reads this stuff...b/c remember how in the beginning ppl were talking about her LV bag and how out of style it was...blah, blah, blah...well she's sporting a new $920 LV bag...and it looks great.

Maybe Zahara is taking her nap and they don't want to disturb her with minor errands. It's easier to let the nanny watch her during her nap while Maddox is being picked up or Angelina is having her photoshoot done.

Maddox on the other hand may easily get cabin fever and likes to go everywhere.

Certain places may not be appropriate for 1 year olds, such as theatres, museums.

Keep in mind we see only a few hours of their day, so the rest they are all together.

Rica, I love the fanfic - you're very talented. I'm addicted to it. I live on the other side of the world to those of you in North America so I read your fanfic first thing in the morning.

Me again, just from experience with my kids... babies and little boys have different schedules. Babies are still taking more naps and are more sensitive to schedule changes. and over stimulation... Also you have to remember that Mad has a few years of getting used to the paps. I imagine it could be very scary for a little one.
I have read posts referring to the fact that Brad is not smiling in some photos. Any parent would be concerned and worried if they become surrounded that their child or family will get hurt.

After reading the hate comments on this blog from the Jennifer fanatics they should be concerned that one of them will try to hurt Angie or one of the kids.

I think she just got a bigger bag. That is a mom thing with kids...for the crayons, snacks , diaper etc. As the diapers get bigger so does the bag.

Good Morning Ladies! I received emails. I'll send you all mine if JJ hasn't given it to you already. I'll send it anyway.

Thanks Jared!!!! You're soooo cool!!! He's like our 'Charlie'

Dolphinegirl, I'm from Chicago! But I spent ummers in Arkansas with my grandparents. They retired there, bought 500 acres and decided to raise livestock and veggies...LOL!!! But We used to hang out in Thayer Mo a lot.

Oh 'Me Again' I was wrong...the reshoots took place in Late February and March. You know I think it's a matter of Z's age. We take the older children out because they are a bit more self-reliant. They don't need constant attention. You know? Where is the fun for the baby if she can't walk? She can't get down on the ground and wrestle, or run with Mad. Not to mention like someone mentioned. Z's only about 13 months, she's probably still taking 1-2 naps a day and they're usually not quick naps. I mean I doubt that they are just shoving her off on the nanny but a baby's schedule should stay the same.

Rica are you sending the fanfic by mail or you'll post it later?
I want to know because i'am a very big fan of your fanfic :)
BAMZ+1 RULES

Hiiii Dee :-)

I'm going to post it here. If you want me to send it to your email too, I can do that.

It should be up in a few minutes. I have a meeting in a bit and I want to get it up before I go in.

Thank you for great feedback!

wait how? i don't know in this system

Good Morning Rica. I'm in St. Louis. Looking forward to the fanfic :)

I agree with everyone who posted that Z probably has a stricter schedule being a baby. And also the attention they get is probably something she is still getting used to.

Well, off to work. I'll check back in with you all later tonight. Have a great day.

PART 5

September 2004
Turning Points…

Dark sunglasses in place, Brad simply stared at Angelina, who stood sandwiched between him and the guardrail to the set stairs. He knew he was too close for their personal comfort, but not to too many onlookers. What was he doing? The more his marriage seemed to crumble, the more solace he found here…with her. They’d never so much as kissed outside of the script, yet just being here with her was just as satisfying. But he had marriage to work out. This Angel wasn’t meant for him.

Angelina didn’t need to see his eyes to know that he was watching her. She herself stared everywhere but his face. Coward! She knew she was. But what was she suppose to do? Throw herself at him? Suggest a hotel meeting? No, that’s not what she wanted…well…she did but not as an answer to the longing that seemed to consume her. He was a good man in a crumbling marriage, She’d been where he was now and she had to let him work that out for himself. He simply wasn’t available.

He would go home and live the life he chose, try to make it work. How could he, when what he wanted most in the world was represented here in this one woman. Without even trying she made him dream, she made him desire, she made him want…

She would go home and live the life she’d created for herself. She’d raise her son, continue her work as a humanitarian and make movies. But so much more was missing and it all seemed to be embodied with in this one man. He made her realize, he made her think, and he made her wish…

~~~~~~~~~

“I’ll get you mommy!” Maddox charged forward with his lightsaber in the air. “Arrrgghhh!!!”

Angelina pretended to fall, landing softly on her bottom. She began crawling backwards slowly, so that the toddler could keep the upper hand. “I’ll never let you take me alive!” She added in her best Darth Vader voice. “Mad-dox you are my son!”

The tiny boy couldn’t hold his laughter and fell into his mother’s arms in a fit of giggles. “I love you mommy.”

Wrapping him in her arms tightly, she kissed his forehead lightly before looking into his eyes. “I love you too my Madness.”

Angelina glanced up in time to catch Brad’s longing gaze, before he quickly turned away. He’d been so depressed lately but she couldn’t trespass on his privacy, She could give him no sage advice. All she could do was lend an ear and maybe add a little madness to his life. “Hey Mad.”

“Huh?” The boy looked up at his mother expectantly, snuggling closer into her warm body.

“Mommy has to go and see the makeup lady, so why don’t you take your saber and mine and go and challenge Brad to WAR! ARRRRGGGHHHH” She roughed the child up a bit and swung him in the air. Setting him down on his feet she helped him gather his toy sabers and watched him run over to Brad.

“Braddy!” Maddox’s small feet flew over the ground as he ran head long into Brad.

Smiling, Brad kneeled down to the child’s height. “Hey Mad! What’s up?”

Scrunching his face Mad responded. “Mommy has to go to the makeup lady. Can you play with me?”

His smile brighter. “I sure can! Which lightsaber is mine?” Brad hugged the little boy who’d become so important to him. He honestly didn’t know how he would deal with not seeing him after the shoot was over.

Maddox looked into Brad’s face, his eyes wide. “You know Star Wars?”

“Do I!”

“You can have mommy’s!” He handed Brad the saber.

“Okay, but lets move over here so we’re not in the crew’s way okay?” taking the small hand in his large one he walked the child over to the ‘safe’ area. Turning he saw Angelina watching him with a soft smile. He smiled back and returned his attention to the child. Holding his saber out he breathed. “You have learned much, young Padawan.”

~~~~~~~~~

October 2004

Nabu

“Do you think he’s sleeping with her?” Jennifer asked her long time friend Courtney Cox-Arquette. “Angelina…do you think that he’s sleeping with her?”

“No I don’t. You know Brad wouldn’t cheat on you.” Courtney reassured her friend. But she wondered if Brad was keeping his vows. Angelina Jolie was a very provocative woman even her own husband had a thing for the ‘Tomb Raider’ beauty; calling her sex-a-licious. When Courtney had complained, David had laughed and waved her jealousy away. He told her that he’d met Angelina on the set of ‘Hell’s Kitchen’ where his sister Rosanna had played Angelina’s mother. There was admiration, nothing else; God men could be so stupid! Angelina was like a black widow, both knowingly and unknowingly ensnaring men into her web –like arms. But she couldn’t…wouldn’t share those feelings with Jennifer. “Brad’s a good man.”

“A man no longer interested in our marriage.” Jennifer took a deep swallow of her spring water. “I don’t even think he finds me attractive anymore and it’s making me eat more and more.”

“Have you two talked about this? What about kids?” Courtney knew she was bringing up a very touchy subject. “I thought you planned to have a baby this year, ’04 is almost over. Friends is done, maybe now is the time to work on your marriage and start a family.”

Jennifer blushed a bit at Courtney’s words. “Well I was offered a couple of movie roles.”

Courtney looked up from her sushi plate. “What do you mean you were offered a couple movie roles? You never mentioned them to me.”

“Well they were just offered.” Jennifer shrugged. She hadn’t mentioned them because she knew that Courtney would have discussed it with her husband who would have said something to Brad. She hadn’t discussed any of the movie deals with Brad.

“Well it’s only two movies, that’s what three months of shooting per movie? So you will still be able to start your family…”

Jennifer corrected. “Well actually it’s six.”

“Six!” Looking around at the other dining patrons, Courtney lowered her voice. “Six?”

“Yeah.”

“Well what did Brad say?” Courtney watched Jennifer, push her salad across her plate, never really taking a bite. “Well?”

“I haven’t really told him yet.” Jennifer hedged.

“And what about a family…children? You know how badly he wants them.”

“Look my career is just starting to take off. I can’t afford to take the next year or so off to have babies. If I disappear for two years the world won’t remember who the hell I am. I need to move now while we’re hot off the success of ‘Friends’.” Jennifer pointed at Courtney. “Even you have a television series and that part in ‘The Longest Yard’. I have to strike now before I loose my chance.”

“Yeah and if you wait too long, you’ll sacrifice having a family. You know the trouble I went through.” Courtney shook her head. Jen was playing with fire. She knew that Brad would be so disappointed, couple that with the ‘Angelina’ factor and Jennifer was courting marital disaster. “You might want to discuss this with Brad before you sign anything.”

Jennifer didn’t bother to tell her that she’d already signed up for three.

~~~~~~~~~~

Pitt home
Beverly Hills
November 2004

“So you want to wait two more years before starting a family?.” Brad was almost tired of the subject, but the time that he’d spent getting to know Maddox had only sharpened the desire for children. Jennifer had been promising year after year, only to have something come up every time. He was truly getting weary of the whole subject, where she was concerned. He was now considering other options. “Fine.”

“So you don’t even care?” Jennifer griped. Ever since Brad had begun shooting he’d seemed more and more distant with each passing day.

“I didn’t say that I didn’t care. I simply said fine Jen.” Brad sighed. He didn’t want to fight and she seemed to be revving up for one.

“Do even care why?”

“Why?” Brad asked completely devoid of all emotion. There was no excuse outside of illness that would help him understand, why she didn’t want to have his child.

“Well, you know how much I enjoy doing film and my career goals.” Jennifer walked over to the table and sat down opposite her husband.

“Un huh…You want a movie career and an Oscar, yeah I know.” Brad ran his fingers over his buzz cut. “What does this have to do wo=ith iur immediate family plans?”

“I was offer six roles and two were one on one costar, not an ensemble.” Jennifer forged ahead. “I signed the contracts for three last week.”

“WHAT?” Brad stood up suddenly. So let me get this straight. You don’t have time to start the family you’ve been promising me. Yet you do have time to sign up for and complete six movies. And you never even discussed it with me.” Brad stared at her as if she’d just grown two heads. “And you didn’t even discuss it with me first.

“YOU’RE ALWAYS GOING OFF AND DOING TWO AND THREE MOVIES A YEAR!” Jennifer shouted.

“THAT’S BULLSHIT AND YOU KNOW IT!” Brad backed away from the table. “I have ALWAYS talked things over with you before signing ANY contract!”

“You have your career! You‘ve been nominated for an Oscar! That’s what I want! Why should I give up on my dreams to start a family when there’s still time for it later? I can’t afford to wait two years or more to start my movie career.” Jennifer watched Brad walk over to the window and stare out at the pool area. He had that far away look again as if he’d just left the building. “Hello! Are you listening to me?”

Brad turned his head to glance over his shoulder, his face devoid of all emotion. “Oh I hear you but you’re not saying anything that I want to hear at the moment.”

“What? I’m not allowed to have career?”

“I never said that. But you act as though it has to be one or the other.” He walked back over to her. “There are plenty of women who have careers and a family. Courtney was pregnant on ‘Friends’. Catherine has two kids now and she’s still working and raising her children. Julia had a difficult pregnancy like Courtney and she still worked while pregnant and now she’s doing Broadway. They are all married, Angelina is single and she raises Maddox alone. She brings him to the set everyday and she has a very successful career, Oscar and all. They all have Oscars and children. It can be done.” He was almost pleading, something he’d told himself he wouldn’t do again. But If this marriage was going to have chance, they were going to have to work out these issues.

Jennifer bristled at Angelina’s name. “Angelina…Angelina…Angelina! She’s just your idea of perfect isn’t she. Angie can do this! Angie can do that! WHAT THE HELL CAN’T SHE DO?”

Brad pointed his finger at Jennifer; his voice still and hard. “Stop it! Angelina has nothing to do with this. This is about you me and our family decisions. I mentioned her, Catherine, Julia and Courtney as examples. That’s all!”

Jennifer balked at Brad’s tone. “What? Did I hit a nerve talking about your precious Angie and what’s her kid’s name? Mad…he probably is mad with her as a mother.”

“I said STOP! His name is Maddox and leave them alone. They haven’t done a damn thing to you!“

“The hell they haven’t. It seems like every chance you get, you hold them up to me like they’re some kind of shining example of the perfect woman and child; as if I’m the failure for wanting to start my career without a big belly.”

“Your words not mine.” Brad muttered, shaking his head, he stared at her.

“Oh! Well since you have all the witty answers, how about answering this one. Are you sleeping with her?” Jennifer threw the question at him like a dart targeting the bull’s-eye.

“What?!” Brad shook his head. “You are a piece of work. What the hell is wrong with you?”

“Are you sleeping with her?” Jennifer repeated, walking over to one of the side tables and grabbed a magazine, tossing it at Brad, who caught it with one hand. “These are all over!”

He glanced down at the tabloid in his hand and read the cover ‘Trouble in Paradise Is Pillow Lipped Angelina to Blame?’ Grimacing he tossed the magazine down. “Jennifer please, you know better than to read and believe this shit! They never tell the truth!”

“And yet somehow those rumors always manage to come true!” Jennifer watched Brad silently before asking again. “You still haven’t answered my question. Yes or no?”

“You are serious? You actually want me to answer that? Fine NO!” Brad yelled. “I have never slept with her!”

Jennifer had known this man for almost seven years and she had always been able to tell when he was telling the truth and she believed him now. But she still needed to know one thing. “Are you attracted to her?”

Brad looked the woman who’d shared his life for the last six and half years. In his mind he replayed every moment of that time and gave her the truth that he owed her. “Yes. I’m very attracted to her.

DI...just email JJ and let him know you would like Rica to have your email address info...and he or Audrey will send to Rica

Rica and the rest of the Chicas/Chicos.
I am new to posting but I have been reading them religiously everyday from the start. Please know that I have admired all of your staunch support and defense of BAMZ +1. Don’t despair this too shall past. People will believe what they want to believe. So keep writing, keep loving and keep talking about them like they are going to last forever. That is what true love is about. Clearly, there are some who have not experiences this thing call love. It can make you do crazy thing, like leave your wife, start a family, adopt children, become a pilot, become pregnant, fly all over the world and then some just for your love. How many of us can say we have done that for love? It is rare and doesn’t come often. So when it knocks make sure you open the door and let love in.

To all the haters/self-righteous wantabees;
SO WHAT, if they had an affair. SO WHAT, if Brad cheated. SO WHAT, if we love them and want to talk about them and “worship” them on this post. WHAT ARE YOU GOING TO DO ABOUT IT?

I will tell you what nothing…nothing…. You may talk or write your vile and racial comments as much as you want. I believe in freedom of speech. But, please what is your goal here? To change our minds or spread your hate? The more you talk about them the more you write your comments the more I like them. The more that I become a staunch supporter of them. You people are nothing in this world. Angie started her charity work way before she met Brad and the affair. She has been giving her time and money for over 5 years now. This has been well documented. Look it up. This is not a publicity stunt, period. The end. What have you given lately?

As for her past, who doesn’t have one? Good or bad she is a better person for it, in my opinion. Who among us can say the same? Loving anyone is hard. Leave it alone it is none of your business. The only fault I find in her is that she is too open about her life to the world. Obviously, she can’t trust the world to be as open and accepting. But, she still tries. This is something I admire in her. I know this is a dichotomy of an opinion. At the very least, she is not dull.

In the end, only god can judge.

Rica,
Please add me to the mailing list. I love your fanfic. Everyone is right you are a good writer and should pursue it professionally. Who knows where it will take you? Just try it on for size. To ange, I am also from Tampa, Florida (but grew up in NYC).

Much love,
Cinnabana

Well said Cinnabana!

Rica you are great! Thanks!!

Rica, more great fanfic. I'm enthralled. I'd love to be on your fanfic mailing list, if that's OK. I'll ask Jared to send you my e-mail.

Cinnabana,I grew up in New York also,I actually live in both places, My job is in New York, I am actually there more than I am here,only been here a year so I am still adjusting. I live in North Tampa,Total Suburbia,closest anything is 8 miles away,so where are in Tampa are you?

Me Again!
Whats jared's email?

ILoveGossip, go here to email Jared:
http://www.justjared.com/contact.php

ILG...

jared (at) justjared (dot) com

Rica...send me a test email tomorrow after you get the kids off and at work.

'me again' how do you hookup to 'laineysgossip' fanfic. rica is still MY GIRL!!!

Ricaa, you're building yourself quite a fan base. Good going, girl!

Just one little thing. So we're not bombarding Jared with all the email addresses forwarding and sharing, Rica, you could create a temporary Hushmail (www.hushmail.com) address which you can use to direct the fans to your real email addy. Perhaps to ensure you're getting the right fan, have them put a code word that you can confirm on the board with them. The hushmail address automatically expires in 3 weeks when you have't accessed it. So you won't be collecting unnecessary email addies when you're through with it.

Just a suggestion.

"The more you talk about them the more you write your comments the more I like them. The more that I become a staunch supporter of them."

Cinnabana, the vile hate is what will fuel the fans and supporters to support their films even more than we previously did. The haters may think their hate campaign will result in boycotts, but they failed to take into account that both Brad and Angelina have a bigger film fan base than Jennifer worldwide. Their utter hate only motivates us into showing more of our support in real dollars. And they've had conversions because of the unjustified malice by those haters.

I believe paradoxically this excessive scrutiny on Brad and Angelina will fuel them more to triumph over the negativity. I honestly don't know how long they will last as a couple but their chances are no worst than an average American. But they certainly seem in sync with each other in their interests and goals in life to sustain them for a long time. I certainly hope them the best.

rica...i can never say enough....ur so good...please kindly include me in the fanfic mailing list!!

jared, pretty please...kindly send my email addredd to rica...

September 2004
Turning Points…
Cont…

Jennifer half expected him to say yes, but now that the answer had been spoken into existence. What was she to do? Where did they go from here? “Okay…wow. How long have you been attracted to her?”

Brad watched Jennifer begin to pace. “Why does that matter?”

Almost as if in a reverie, Jen smiled. “hmmm…you know there was a time when you would have ended that question with, honey…sweetheart. You don’t even use those words anymore.”

“Jennifer…”

“See…you can’t say it. Can you?” Jennifer sat down slowly. Staring up at Brad she continued. “So? How long?”

“Jen come on…we’re talking about Angelina Jolie. Most men find her attractive.”

“We’re not talking about most men Brad, we’re talking about you.” Jen wasn’t going to let this bone go. She wanted her answer.

Brad saw no reason to lie at this point. It would only make things worse if he did. They needed to get everything out in the open and move on from there. “Since March…April, I don’t know…sometime earlier this year.”

“So you were attracted to her while we were in Cannes? Were you thinking of her then too? Cause you’ve damn sure been thinking of her lately. You’re never here. Emotionally you’ve been somewhere else. Now I know why.”

“She was on my mind yes. But don’t you dare pin the state of our marriage on her, like some big bad scapegoat.” Brad answered quietly.

Jennifer watched him for a moment. “So enlighten me Bradley, what should I pin it on, if not your attraction to another woman? A woman who seems to be on your mind constantly!”

“What?!! You actually need me to tell you where it all went wrong? Why not start with our inability to stay in the same state for more than four weeks. Or how about the constant promises, broken time after goddamn time.“ Shaking his head he calmed down a bit, before continuing. To be fair I haven’t been working as hard as I could on this marriage. You’re right my mind has been on other things…children…family…producing more, acting less and yes I have been thinking of Angelina but I thought that if she could raise a son as a single parent and still have a fulfilling life, without sacrificing her career than you could too with me by your side.” Brad decided to tell her all of it. “And you know what I did think of her that way. She’s a gorgeous woman with an extremely potent sexuality but think of her is all I did. I have never slept with her…never even kissed her outside of the set.”

Jennifer watched him a full minute before standing and heading for the door. “You need to get her out of your mind if you hope to save our marriage.” Turning she left the room.

Brad stood silently, his mind a jumble of thoughts. ‘She hadn’t even owned up to her mistakes in the marriage. How could they solve their problems when only one was willing to take responsibility for the deterioration?

The one thought that kept fighting its way to the top. ‘Did he want to save his marriage?”

PART SEVEN
The Demise of the ‘Golden Couple’

2004
Italy
Private Promenade…

“You’re not funny Bradley! Stop.” Squealing, Angelina tried to pull away from Brad’s tickling fingertips but Brad refused to let her go. His fingers finding her most sensitive and ticklish spots. Bradley!”

Laughing Brad finally decided to stop his torture and let her up from his lap. “Who knew that the beautiful and dangerous Ms. Jolie would be so ticklish?”

“I thought that you were supposed to be a good guy?” At his shrug she punched him non-to-gently in the arm.

“Ouch!” Man, she threw a damn good punch. But he could take her. “Hey! I never claimed to be a good guy.” Brad’s mood, like quicksilver, changed from jovial to morose within seconds. “Yeah, I seem to be far from a ‘good guy’ at home these days.”

“Still bad huh?” Angelina sat down next to Brad. “I thought you two were making some kind of progress.” She knew that he and Jennifer were having serious problems and that they were currently seeing a marriage counselor. It didn’t seem to be helping. If anything, Brad seemed more and more depressed of late.

“Yeah just not in the right direction.” Standing, he held his hand out to her. “Walk with me.”

Without hesitation, Angelina stood gently placing her hand in his, she allowed him to draw her arm through his. They walked quietly for a moment, leaning into each other; simply enjoying the view. Brad didn’t release her arm and she was content to hold on to his. After what seemed like twenty minutes, Angelina decided to break the silence. “So, you want to talk?”

Without preamble, he spilled his thoughts; telling her all. “It’s just not working, the counseling. Even my parent’s advice doesn’t seem to be working. I’m trying to be understanding. I realize that Jennifer has a few issues to resolve within herself. I understand that but…” Brad’s voice trailed off as he stared out at the clear blue waters that caressed the coast. “She signed up for three movies and is considering three more and never once did she bother to discuss it with me.”

“I thought you two were working on starting a family.” Angelina kept her emotions regarding Jennifer’s perfidy to herself. From what Brad had told her the ‘baby’ issue had been going on for the last two years. He’d given her the two years she’d asked for at the beginning of their marriage and she’d been putting him off ever since. But Brad had hoped that with the end of Friends that Jennifer would be ready. Was the woman out of her mind? Who wouldn’t to create a family with this man? His wife, that’s who?

“Yeah, well she decided that I could wait another two years.” She caught the glint of tears in Brad’s eyes. “She’s never going to give me any children. I guess I should accept that. But I just hoped and wished she would. I even asked her about adoption, that was a resounding no!”

Angelina pulled her had hand free to rub Brad’s back. “Give her time to think about it. She’ll change her mind. As for adoption, everyone can’t adopt. Some people would prefer their on children. You can’t blame her for that. What may seem easy for some…just isn’t for others.”

Brad lowered his shaking head. “No…she won’t change her mind. All she wants now is a movie career and an Oscar.”

Angelina made a choking noise. Really? An Oscar…her?” Angelina decided to let it go. But inside she knew that it would be a long time before Jennifer Aniston the world’s best ‘Friend’ ever won an Oscar. “Well, she does have great hair.” Angelina grined.

Brad laughed at Angelina’s humor. “Yeah…an Oscar. I don’t think they give those for hair, do they? I think it’s a talent thing. Yeah I’m almost sure of it.”

The two laughed a bit longer before the mood once again became a sober one. Angelina stopped walking; turning to Brad she reached up to smooth his hair, ending the gesture by cupping Brad’s jaw. “If you want your marriage to work, you know what you have to do?”

“No, not anymore. I’m tired. I’m just tired. I had one more movie after this, then I decided to take some time off. Since we would both be off I thought that we could start our family. The best laid plans. The kicker is, she and I discussed this…we agreed.” His voice usually so placid and cheery was now simply put; weary. “I’m so tired of being the only one trying to infuse a bit of sincerity and romance into our marriage. If she wants a career then she can have it.”

Angelina shook her head. “No! No…she can have both. Hello! Actors do it all the time.”

Exasperated Brad sighed heavily. “Yeah but she doesn’t seem to know that or rather she sees only one way to do it! Her way!”

She could only think of one thing to say and so she did. “I’m so sorry Brad.”

Brad saw his own anguish reflected in her beautiful Hazel eyes. “Hey don’t worry, if my grandma Betty is to be believed; all things have a way of working out. This is no different.” Taking her hand again, he pulled her towards the open market. “Let’s look around. I know you like to shop. I saw those bags yesterday!”

She swung at him, but missed when he stepped out of the way. Brad laughed. “Hey watch that left!” Staring into her beautiful face, his voice quietly intimate, he asked. “Will you have dinner with me tonight?”

Her answer was a mere whisper but he heard it as if she’d shouted. “I love to Bradley.”

~~~~~~~

The evening was clear, the weather warm and enticing. They’d decided to have dinner on her patio. Here they could enjoy their meal without the paparazzi snapping endless photos that would somehow find their way to the highest bidding tabloid. They wanted privacy away from prying eyes and speculation.

“Here try this.” Angelina held out a forkful of her chocolate ravioli dessert for Brad to try. “Mmmm…I love Italian food.”

Brad’s mouth enveloped the fork and gently pulled the tender dessert pasta from it. :Mmmmm…very good.” He managed around the rich morsel. “Try this.” He held a spoonful of his vanilla bean confection out to her.

Leaning forward she opened her mouth to allow him to feed the morsel to her. Instead Brad traced her lips with the sweet and dabbed a bit on to her tongue before returning the uneaten piece to his own mouth.

“Hey! No fair, what about my taste? I guess I’ll just have to be satisfied with my lips huh?” Angelina’s tongue darted out, seeking and tasting the corners of her mouth. Before she could move any further, Brad stood and moved over to Angelina’s side of the table. Pulling her to her feet, he spoke. “You want a taste? Here/” He opened his mouth to show her the morsel still lying there on his tongue.

Angelina reacted to the intense feelings engulfing them. Too many nights alone… too many day wishing...wanting. Too many days trying to hide a desire that grew stronger each day. She wanted him so bad she could smell him. If nothing else she had to taste him, just once. Leaning in she met his mouth with her own, tasting and exploring until she captured the elusive piece of dessert. Her voice husky she murmured against his opened mouth. “Mmmmm…very good.”

Brad’s hands found their way into her hair. That glorious mane of hair, he’d secretly been itching to touch. Grasping a handful of the thick shiny locks, he pulled her head back roughly. Using his tongue he began to trace her full luscious lips. ‘God, he’d dreamed of those lips; their plump softness.’ The tastes he gotten while filming had been a simple tease. He nipped gently at the puffy lower lip, until she whimpered, giving him permission to move further. Sucking gently on the well teased lip, Brad allowed his hands to cup her face, holding her still for his oral invasion. He aggressively went after the prize, his tongue dueling and subduing hers. Nothing tasted so sweet. She reminded him of a ripe sweet orange with just a hint of tartness. Luscious!

Angelina deepened the kiss, allowing her own tongue to entice. Her hands began exploring his body; delicately running up his arms to well formed Biceps. ‘Oh his arms, He had the most wonderful arms. Thick and hard…made to carry a woman to bed, made to hold a woman down, made to protect. She continued her exploration, moving over his should blades and roaming downward toward that magnificent butt. ‘That ass could launch a thousand ships.’ Their kiss so demanding, that she was sure her lips were bruised. They were already tender and she knew; the more he took, the more she gave.

He wanted more. Allowing one hand to caress its way down into the succulent valley of her full breasts, he tested the weight of one perfect globe in his hand, squeezing the softness and teasing the already rigid nipple into a stiff pebble. Brad’s other hand glided slowly down her back to caress her curved bottom. Even through the thin material of her white cotton skirt, his fingers sought and found the crease that split her buttocks. Following the crease until both hands cupped her bottom. He needed more!

Never breaking the kiss, Brad carried her over to the balcony’s sofa, laying her there, he followed her down. Pushing her skirt up over her impossibly long legs slowly, he caressed every inch of supple flesh he uncovered. Using his knees to spread her legs, he settled into the hot moist apex of her thighs. His hands still searching, they found the softness of her naked buttocks. ‘Lord he did love a woman’s thong.’

Angie’s own hands were doing a bit of exploration themselves. ‘The man had the world’s greatest ass. There was no other like it. Her hands pushed and fought their way into the waste of his cotton summer pants, needing…wanting to touch flesh. When they finally found the warm flesh she sighed. When his hands caressed and molded the sinuous flesh of hers she moaned. “Braaaddd…”

Hot, hard and heavy. She needed more, he wanted more. Reaching between them he opened his pants. Leaving his fly open he once again reached up to hold her head still, while he captured her mouth in yet another bruising kiss. Grinding his groin into her as his tongue moved in and out of her mouth mimicking the rhythm of loves age old dance of lust, fulfillment and love.

Pulling her mouth away from his, Angelina had to catch her breath. She had to stop him, she had to stop herself. God this was a married man, what was she doing? “Brad…Brad!” Still fighting to catch her, she fought him as well, dodging his seeing lips. When he couldn’t capture her mouth again he settled on her throat, sucking and laving the pulse that beat at the base of her throat. She was dying and in mere minutes they would be past the point of no return and that was definitely not a journey they needed to take right now. “Brad, please…we have to stop…please.”

Her voice came to him through a haze of lust. However it wasn’t her voice or the words that stopped him. It was the panic in her eyes. He had to stop for the sake of his marriage and for Angelina’s sake. He couldn’t destroy the trust that he’d built with her over the last ten months. With one last caressing kiss, he pushed away from her and fastened his pants. Reaching over he helped her right her own cloths. “What do we do now?”

Angelina stared into his heavenly blue eyes and gave an answer that would end it. “We’re done shooting for now. So you go home to your wife and make it work. I’ll go home to my son. This can’t happen again Brad. I think it best if we stay away from each other.”

“Just like that?” Brad knew it was for the best. He knew she was right. But the decision just hurt so bad; it was an ache that went further than the massive arousal he’d be nursing tonight. It consumed him, just as the thought, feel and taste of her enslaved him.

“We don’t have another choice.” She bent over; the pain of arousal she could deal with, it was the pain of the soul she was having a problem with. How was she supposed to simply let this man go? But she had no choice, he belonged to another woman and she would never be a married man’s mistress. She’d almost broken her vow; no other man had ever made her test her vow.

“Will you see other men?”

“Brad…don’t…please.”

“Fine. But know this Angel, one day I’ll be free and heaven help anyone who stands between me and you. Because I’m coming none stop.”

If they knew then what we all know now…
That it would be just a matter of months until Brad was a free man…

TO BE CONTINUED…

Thanks for reading guys!

The suspense, the climatic tone…all I can say is Girl you did it. Now of course I hope this really didn’t happen, but at this point…who cares…if it did, as Ange said…like being a fly on the wall.

If my boss catch me...me and the whole d#$% family will be living with you and yours!

It was good...how in the H&^* are you going to top that one? I’m going on-line right now to find you some type of agent, production company (Plan B), publishing house…somebody. Now way you should let this talent got to waste…

Take the weekend off or come up with some more stuff…whichever you prefer and we BAMZ Fanatics will wait until Monday morning mid-day for the next installment of our “Guilty Pleasures”…as one of the posters called this site.

So now we pick up from...

LET'S START THE COURTSHIP NOW!!!!
March 30th 2005
England

Am I right Rica...this is where he says "It's over, she filed."....

Rica You definitely need to get published! so how do I get on the mailing list? Do I let Jared know to give you my e-mail address?

I am going to have to go look for a Jared-BAMZ+1 Twelve Step Program too. This is addicting !

PS. I wonder if you should consider copywriting your words or at least documenting when and time etc . you posted your story here. Your writing is so good I could see someone copying it and getting it published under their name....

Ladies you are such a moral buster!!!!
THANK YOU!!!! :-) All of you!!!!
"Me Again" If you find an agent you got yourself a finders fee, baby!!!!

I could tell you were we pick up at, but where's the fun in that? I mean we still have the Ocean's 12 Premier and Alexander...cameos by (LOL...I'm so full of it!!) anyway cameos bu Val Kilmer, Colin Farrell, Matt Damon and Gorgeous George Clooney. Come on we can't skip all that!!!

You know elena I never thought about it. I know with my pitches I copywrite them (poorman's copyright) But I never thought of . I of course have a hard copy on my computer and on disk but how do you copyright on the internet. I guess I can copy the post time, will that really help. I'm sooo not familiar with this area.

IDEAS ANYONE????
JARED????

RICA, thank you so much. You are really something girl. Thanks JJ for the space n can you give my e mail to Rica too? God bless you girl and your beautiful imagination.

Thank you Rica for the fanfic...your imagination could stir up new rumor....;)....have a wonderful week-end.

Rica, girl, I can't wait for the cameo of HOT man that is George Clooney. And you right we couldn't skip all that.
You fanfic is getting better and better each day.
JJ did you send my e mail to Rica? Please post it to her. Thanks

BAMZ+1 RULES

Off to take a cold shower... Rica, you have outdone yourself. Dayummn!

I have not posted much on this site, but I do come everyday for JJ's pics and Rica's fanfic, and my GOD......they definitely give us a reason to come everyday.

Keep up the good work JJ and keep those fanfics coming Rica.....the more explosive, the better....I need more than a cold shower after reading the steamy scenes.
BAMS +1 and many more......FOREVER!!!!

I will have ask an attorney friend or look it up for you. However for now, perhaps e-mailing yourself a copy of your written work and keeping it on a disk and in printed form would documet time in a form could be researched and verified should you need to in the future. Perhaps that would be the advantage of doing it via e-mail form as you can add notice of ownership of intellectual property /written word. You could add that when you post the story updates.

As to publishing , I do not read romance novels or that genre but I am sure you could go to the bookstore and get the names of the different publishing companies who are interested in this genre of literature and establish contact with them. Or you can publish it yourself and market it in fan magazines , e-bay, fan sites. Heck you could buy an add on all these gossip blogs.

i heart Rica! =) thanks

Damn rica! It's getting hott in here, I'm getting chills, I think I need to take a cold shower

yes rica, you should have this fanfic copyrighted....this is the internet and lots of internet crooks who will stole someone's ideas and sell them as their own!!

and these fanfics are HOT HOT HOT!!!

Thanks for the feedback. You have my support as well.

To Cindy2:
Thanks so much. I couldn’t have said it better myself. The haters have no idea what they are doing for this site. The more they post, the more we like them.

To Ange,
Thanks. I was born and raised in New York. Parents are from the Caribbean. I love New York. Miss it terribly. I moved to Florida in 2002 for health reasons. I still miss my NY. My whole family are still in NY. Here by myself. I live in Brandon. Still don’t know much about Tampa. Maybe we will hook up and meet and talk shop about Brangelina.

To Rica,
You are the best. This is good. I would definitely look into copyrighting or find yourself a publishing agent or something. It is good. Keep them coming. Simply love. It is almost as if you are in their heads. Who knows what really happened but you put a pretty good spin on the possibility.
Much love and peace,
Cinnabana

Rica,they just get better and better.You should consider writing as a career,you have talent.I have been home all day with 2 sick kids half asleep,I must say this woke me up girl.This fanfics is HOT! HOT! HOT!

Rica all I want to say is WOW! Looking forward to the next instalment. Have a good weekend!

Lou, hope your babies get well soon. I've been under the weather myself so I know how they feel. Rest and fluids was the prescription I got. Added some BAMZ too and tried not to work too hard, lol, but still have to do that ;)

kerchy, is the lainygossip fanfic worth checking out? i'm short on time and am planning on curling up with the complete Rica fanfic on Sunday afternoon.

Rica, as all the previous posters have mentioned, your fan fic just gets better and better. You have talent! Can't wait for the next installment. Do we have to wait til Monday? Oh, no!

Dear Rica, this last chapter was **"squeak"** mesmerizing! We were all flies on the wall watching things unfold. But could you re-write their actual encounter into a "Dream Sequence", a la Dallas' Bobby Ewing? Brad wakes up and hears Jen in the shower and realizes it never happened? You see, I firmly believe he didn't cheat, but Ladies, THAT was CHEATING! Even if you are able to e-mail chapters directly to some readers, will you still post them here?

I am predicting that Brad and Angelina's baby is a boy and he will grow up to look exactly like Jonathan Rhys Meyers! have you seen his lips?

dolphingirl, it's up to you. you'll get through them real quick. rica's are just SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO MUCH BETTER!!! you really, appreciate rica's talent!!

Great imagination, Rica. can't wait for the next episode.

God thanks I have a internet connection in my hotel room in Milan. rica why you don't start a own blog site. Just idea from me.

and the story is HOT HOT thanks

PART SEVEN
The Demise of the ‘Golden Couple’
ITALY
October 2004
Continued….

“Mommy…mommy” The little voice along with the incessantly patting hand finally penetrated the deep fog surrounding her dreams. “Mommy…mommy…wake up mommy.”

Angie rolled over and pushed the thick curtain of hair away from her face. She squinted at the sleep swollen face of her three year old son. “Hey sweetheart.” Sitting up, she reached over and pulled the toddler into bed with her. Cuddling him she cleared her fogged mind and focused on him. “What’s the matter baby? Did you have a bad dream?” Maddox shook his head no as he cuddled deeper into his mother’s arms.

“Okaaay…do you have to go potty?” Again the child shook his head. “Water?” Another shake. Settling back down with the child onto the pillows she snuggled him down under the covers with her. “So you tell me…”

“You had a bad dream mommy.” The child answered.

“What?” Angelina asked softly.

“You had a bad dream. You woke me up.” He began playing with his mother’s hand as he spoke. “You were making noises, so I came in hereto wake you up.”

Glad the child couldn’t see her face, Angelina kissed the soft hair that ran the center of his head in a punky Mohawk. “Well thank you for waking me up. Now I think that we should both go back to sleep. Huh?”

Looking up at his mother he asked. “Okay but can I sleep in here with you now?”

“Sure baby.”

“Goodnight mommy.” He rolled over in snuggled closer into the only embrace he knew… that had been his protection for most of his life.

“Goodnight baby.” She began rubbing his hair gently. If he only knew how much he meant to her. He’d saved her from herself…grounded her and she do or give up anything for him. “I love you my Madness.”

Already half asleep the toddler responded before giving in to slumber. “Love you too mommy.”

She held him for a moment longer, to make sure he was asleep before leaving the bed and walking out onto the balcony of her bedroom. The light fragrant wind wafted soothingly over her sensitive skin. She knew she wouldn’t be able to sleep. She was afraid to close her eyes. Behind her lids there waited hell’s desire. A desire she had no hope of assuaging.

“Couldn’t sleep?” There it was; the voice that haunted her every conscious and subconscious moment.

~~~~~~~~~~

He came awake, his taut body covered in sweat. “Now that was a wet dream.” He murmured to himself. Getting up he went into the bathroom to splash cold water on to his face.

Looking up he stared at his reflection in the bathroom mirror. If he had any hopes of salvaging his marriage, He had to get her out of his mind. He had to let her and Maddox go. Walking out onto his private balcony, he stood watching the Ocean waves roll lightly up onto the deserted beach below.

A small sound registered and warned him that he wasn’t alone. He knew before he even turned that it was her; the Angel that haunted his day and night dreams. Looking to his left he saw her, she wore a large black sleep shirt that stopped at the top of her thighs, leaving the length of her pale legs open to view. Her thick hair left unbound, fell in mussed waves down her back, ending just below her shoulders. Ahhh…his Angel, worth tens of millions of dollars and still she remained low maintenance. He spoke softly, “Couldn’t sleep?”

Angelina’s gaze jerked around until it found him. “Ye…umm…Mad woke me up.”

Brad stared at her for a moment before speaking. “Hmmm…is he sleeping now?”

“Yes.” She smiled softly. “He wanted to cuddle I think. So why aren’t you sleeping? Bad dream?”

“Not bad, just intense and forbidden.” The heat suffusing his eyes was almost visible or maybe it was his intense stare that warmed.

“Mad said that I was moaning…or rather he said that I was making noises.” She admitted. “Dreams…”

“What were you dreaming about?” He prompted quietly

“You.” A simple answer. Her eyes roamed over his body noticing that he slept in a pair of lthin cotton pajama pants and no shirt. Hmmm…he was addictive/

“Then I wasn’t alone.” Sighing heavily he ran his hand over his bare chest “What do we do?”

“Nothing. You go home and work on your marriage and Mad and I go home and live our lives.”

“Fine. But know this Angel, one day I’ll be free and heaven help anyone who stands between me and you.”

He echoed the exact words spoken in her dream. “You’re suppose to have Jennifer on your mind.”

“And I will just as soon as you and Mad get the hell out of it. Good night Angel.” He turned and walked back into his bedroom, leaving Angelina standing there wondering what to do next.

“Goodnight Bradley.” She whispered.

She and Mad left for England the next day. She was due to make a UNHCR visit to Darfur in a week and needed to get her mind back in order.

PART EIGHT
The Demise of the ‘Golden Couple’ Cont…

NOVEMBER 2004
POST ALEXANDER PREMIER

The lighting in the hotel lounge was muted enough to conceal both Val Kilmer and his table companion, Angelina Jolie from the prying eyes of fans. The two shared a small table.

“So…?” Val persisted. He’d along with a few others had noticed Angelina’s sadness. Her mind seemed a million miles away from the premiers. He’d finally managed to get her away from the rest of the cast.

“So…what?” Angelina absolutely adored Val. He’d become a very good friend over the last few years.

“You know what. What’s going on with you?” Val continued. “You haven’t been yourself since you arrived here for the premiere.” Leaning across the table he whispered. “What happened in Italy Angie? Why are your eyes so sad? They don’t have that spark that I’m used to seeing.”

What did she tell him? That she pined for a man who could never be hers; a married man? That she’d almost given in to the desire of her body, heart and soul? How did she explain how weary and disappointed she was after her trip to Darfur. How did she put in words, the suffering that she’d witnessed, of the refugees of Darfur? What would make sense to him? Her answer, nothing. “Nothing, I’m just tired. That’s all.”

“Bull!” Val took a sip of his drink. “I’m going to ask you something and I want you to be honest with me.”

“Okay.”

“Does this have anything to do with all the ‘Brad’ noise that I have been hearing about?” Val asked. He and Angie had always been upfront with one another, why change now?

“What…I…?”

“Don’t.” Val held his hand up to stop her. “Before you go to the trouble; I know you. I’ve heard the rumors and you and I both know that no matter how scattered or twisted there usually is usually a modicum of truth in there somewhere. So which is it in this case?”

“We haven’t slept together if that’s what you mean?” Angelina’s voice a bit on the defensive side.

“That’s not what I said.” Deciding to try a different approach, Val reached across the table to capture Angelina’s hand. “Angie…baby I know you didn’t. But that doesn’t mean you can’t be attracted to one another. Hell, look at Colin, he’s half in love with you and you wouldn’t give him the time of day.”

Angie suddenly felt the need to just release it all. Unload it on Val and let him deal with it. Maybe he could make sense of it all. “I never…Brad is.” She stopped and started over. “He’s so down to earth. He was kind sweet, and a little goofy. I never expected to feel this way. While we were in Italy we talked about his marriage, my life and his.

“But?” Val prompted.

Angelina’s lips quirked into a quick smile. “Huh…there’s always a but, isn’t there?” She sipped her drink and continued. “But…things just got a little to tight…too close, so when we parted I suggested that we not see each other anymore and I sent him home to work on his life. So he went back home to California and I went on to Darfur. None of it worked…the distance…the other responsibilities…other people. I sat there in that refugee camp watching the people…their suffering and while I did my job, my mind was on him. So what do I do? What can I do? Nothing…he’s married.”

Val read the confusion and longing on her face. “Baby, I don’t know have an answer for to that. You did the best you could. We can’t help who our heart yearns for. You did the right thing. It may hurt but it was morally right. He’s back in the states with his wife. That’s where he should be at least for now, trying to work everything out.”

Her voice a strained whispered floated across the space between them. “He calls me almost everyday. At first I didn’t answer or returned any of his calls, but he kept calling and I…I couldn’t…couldn’t” Her voice broke. “Then there’s Maddox, he’s constantly asking for Brad. I tell him that Brad had to go home, but he doesn’t understand. I started to letting Brad talk to him when he calls. It’s the only way Mad will sleep. And now we’re all in deep.” Dropping her head into her hands she moaned through her palms. “Awwww….what was I thinking. I guess I just needed to hear his voice…I needed…I don’t know.”

Reaching for hands, he drew them away fro her face, Such a beautiful face. “Shhh…It’s okay. Trust me I understand.” Val knew she wasn’t ready for the ‘L’ word but he had a feeling that was where she was headed. It wouldn’t be quick, knowing Angie. She had Mad to think of so ever cautious, this was liable to drag out. Maybe he should try to feel Brad out to see were his head was at.

Angie tried to cleared her throat but the lump was still there. “I’m starting to to feel discombobulated.” Shaking her head she stared almost frantically into Val’s eyes. “I don’t want another ‘Billy’ episode.”

“Baby there is nothing remotely psychotic about this situation with Brad. Billy Bob? Now…that was just strange. I love Billy, don’t get me wrong, but he was just a dirty old man.” Laughing he continued. “Hell! Half the population of 40 something year old men wanted you…like I said dirty old men.”

Angelina’s laughter tinkled through the quiet lounge. “Thank you…”

“For what?”

“For just listening to me.”

“Always my pleasure Angel.” He gave her hand a gentle squeeze.

DECEMBER 9, 2004
Pre- Ocean’s Twelve-Premiere

“Is Jen coming to the Premiere tomorrow night?” George had been having a one-sided conversation with himself, since the yacht had disembarked. Now almost two hours later, he realized he wasn’t really into the ‘alone thing’.

He tried again. “April asked about you?” George tried teasing his long time friend. But he seemed to be preoccupied, just as he had been for the last two months. “Brad! Did you hear me?”

Brad snapped out of his reverie. “What?”

“I said that April…April Florio asked about you/” George looked out over the Pacific Ocean, visible from the yacht that they were sailing.

“Oh yeah? What does she want?” Brad barely remembered who she was and was not particularly interested in anything she had to say.

“She just asked me how you were.” George smirked. “Wanted to know if you wanted to get together.”

“What did you say?” Brad asked.

“Yes.”

Brad’s attention was on full alert now. “George!”

George laughed and handed Brad another beer. “Just kidding man! I told her that you weren’t interested.”

“Thank you.” Brad took a swig from his bottle. “For a minute there, I thought that I was going to have to kill you and throw your body overboard.”

“And here I thought we were good friends…best buds!” George swallowed his own beer.

“Yeah, best buds don’t set there buddy up with a stalker.” No problem though if you ahd told her yes. We would have just double dated with you.”

“Me and who?”

“The love of your life. “Juliana Dipandi”

“Oh…Ha…ha…ha!” George grimaced at the name. Juliana was a nice woman but a bit stalk-er-ish. She actually scared him. “Yeah…she scares me.”

Brad grinned. “That’s just wrong.”

George chose his next words carefully. “So now that I have your attention, you wanna tell me what’s been going on with you?”

“Huh?”

“You heard me. What’s going on. You haven’t been the same since you returned from Italy. What went on there?”

“Angelina.”

“Ahhh…” George had heard the rumors, but he also knew his friend. But he’d gotten a good look at Ms. Jolie and if beauty and sensuality needed a name, it needed only to knock on her door. The woman seemed to positively ooze sex. He yet to meet her but depending on how this whole situation worked out, she was definitely on his ‘look up’ list.

“No ahhh.” Brad mimicked. “We didn’t do anything.”

“I know you didn’t Brad.” Shrugging he continued. “I can also see that something’s bothering you, so talk to me.”

“She’s not what people think. I remember thinking that she was more than a little weird. I was wrong…completely. She’s got to be the most misjudged person, I’ve ever met. She’s down to earth, compassionate and loving. She enjoys a successful career but yet motherhood is her number one priority. I can’t get Jennifer to so much as think about having a baby and here Angelina is adopting them from orphanages around the world. Do you know where she is right now? She’s in Lebanon for the UN. She’s so selfless…why couldn’t…” He simply broke off his words.

“Why couldn’t, what? Jen be more like her..or is there something else?” George asked. “Finish what you were going to say.”

Frowning at George had no affect, so he was forced to continue. “Why couldn’t I have met her in 2000?” Did he even know what he was saying these days?

Shaking his head George set his beer down. “Because, she was married to Billy Bob and you were busy shaking off Bradley and morphing into ‘Brad Pitt; Golden Boy’. She was too wild and you were too superficial. You ended up married to the right woman at the time.”

“So I should work on my marriage and forget about Angie?” He asked.

“I said that you had married the right woman at the time. Now four years later, you two are moving in separate directions. If one of you is willing to compromise and walk the others path then yes.” Chuckling he finished. “Do you know why I’ve vowed not to marry again? Because I’m not good at it, but you Brad…you are. You enjoy being with someone and creating a family. And in the right setting I think you’ll flourish.”

“Yeah but which setting? Exotic or domestic?” Rolling his eyes heaven word, he twisted his lips. “I’ve tried walking her path for almost seven years. I just don’t know how much longer I can keep doing it.” Shaking his head in defeat Brad stood and moved over to the yacht’s railing. “I’m just so tired of being the only one in this marriage who’s compromising, and sacrificing.

“Then you have your answer.”

He had an answer but what was it? Jennifer was in London. He would go and spend time with her. Maybe they’d celebrate his birthday together.

If he wanted this marriage to work, he would have to let Angelina’s and Maddox’s memories rest. “Yeah, I have my answer. “

That was much easier said than done…

Especially when one’s heart became involved…

TO BE CONTINUED…

i won't lie...i am a romance reader when i'm not working the day job or writing my research papers....so i can say that i love Rica's chapters...i need another one..rica, I know you must work, but i'm hurting for another chapter...LOL

Lady's I send you a email with the email address from Everything Adult admin .Please write her

Rica: Thanks so much! You get the dialogue so right...it's like you were there. ( Rica, are you actually Angelina? Just checking)... I think Jared should sell pins with pictures or something symbolic of BAMZ on them, so fans could recognize one another when out in the world. He could donate the proceeds to Angelina's charities?

AddictedtoBAMZ+1. I am now begining to think that we really, really need that 12 step program. Pins with pictures?LOL. Don't u think that would make us easy targets for the you know whos but hey, i'd wear it proudly anyday. Pins with Pictures...LMAO

Sorry, forgot what I was here for (your fault AddictedtoBAMZ+1). Rica I want to be put on your email/fan list. Don't know if you got my email but i will send another one to Jared.

Jared don't you think it would be a good idea for Rica to have a small space to post her fanfic's. Then we wouldn't have to search for the fic just go directly to the space provided.

I more than sure this won't take away from the praise we give you just add a little flavor.

So what do you think Rica and Jared?

Rica and MeAgain,
Registration for Everything Adult has been opened for a limited time only. If you are still interested in joining please click on the link below. If anyone else is interested in joining the Admin asked me to remind prospective members that they want an active board and that lurking is not allowed. :)
http://s14.invisionfree.com/Everything_Adult

Me Again, I don't think so, It would just attract all the haters. I am enjoying reading Rica stories and all the postive feedback without all the bullshits from the Haters. Besides it make me feel like I am in some kind of secret club for BAMZ+1 Lovers :) Yes I know I need a life!

Thanks Lola, just waiting for my confirmation e-mail

The Demise of the ‘Golden Couple’ Cont…

DECEMBER 17, 2004
The Dorchester Hotel
London England
7pm

“Brad are you coming to visit me and mommy?” The little voice spoke into the phone. What did he say? Sighing he gave it his best shot. “Well Mad remember what me and mommy told you? Remember? That when the movie was over we had to all go home? You and mommy live really far from me sweetie. But you know you can always call me, okay?”

The little voice that answered was sadder somehow. “Kay…but…I know… you can do another movie with mommy and we can see you.”

“Ahhhh…Mad, you know…I don’t think so buddy. Mommy has another movie and so do I.” It was breaking his heart, this conversation.

“After that…maybe?” Maddox wasn’t quite prepared to give up. He wanted to see Brad. Maybe if he cried, mommy would take him to see his Braddy.

“I’m sorry sweetie. I won’t be able to.” Once upon a time he would have said, ‘what he wouldn’t give for a son like Maddox. Now his thoughts were ‘what he wouldn’t give to be a father to Maddox.

“Don’t you like me and mommy anymore?” Maddox asked, his little voice, wobbly with tears. He stamped his little foot. No! He wasn’t supposed to cry now! He had to wait for mommy to see, but he was sad now.

The sound of tears in Maddox voice, broke his heart and he felt a lump form in his own throat. “Hey…come on you’re my big boy, remember? You have to be strong for mommy. You’re the man in the house. But you’re still my best buddy right?”

“Ummm…hmmm.” Maddox responded, wiping his eyes with the back of his little hand. He still wanted Brad. But he had to be a big boy. Being a big boy sucked!

Brad sat back on the sofa, making himself more comfortable. “Okay, so where did we leave off?”

“They saw the white whale!” In true primary fashion, Mad’s mind was now on the childlike version of Moby Dick. The story Brad had been telling him over the last week.

“That’s right. So there they were, in the middle of the ocean and..”

Angelina’s Country Estate
Fulmer, England
7pm

“Who’s he talking to?” Colin Ferrell asked watching Angelina’s three year old son Maddox speak in high animated tones into the cordless telephone.

Angelina looked up from her salad. She glanced over at her son, a smile lightening her face when she caught his excited words. Moby Dick…figured. Men and their never ending conquest to conquer nature, their need to force their will on any and all living things was amazing. “Brad.” A simple answer full of so much meaning.

“I thought you two weren’t speaking.” Colin put his fork down and waited patiently for Angelina to respond. When she didn’t immediately, he continued. “Come on Angie, you were a mess when we met at the Premiere. What the hell are you doing?”

Angelina quickly shushed him. “Hey! Watch your mouth around my kid. He may be on the phone, but trust me the boy has supersonic hearing.”

Holding his hands up in surrender “Okay, fine swearing is out. Now answer the question. What are you doing?” Colin asked.

“Nothing is going on. Brad doesn’t talk to me. He just calls to speak to Mad. When shooting was doe, Mad didn’t like saying good bye and couldn’t understand why Brad didn’t come see him. He experienced ‘separation anxiety’. So we decided to wean him a bit slower. Brad calls him and they talk. Sometimes they tell each other stories.” Angelina sipped her white wine, keeping an eye on her son, who sat on his little patio lounge chair, listening intently to Brad’s story.

“He calls everyday now?” Colin had a bit of trouble holding the sudden streak of jealousy he felt at bay. He’d spent three and half months with this woman and she hadn’t so much as batted an eyelash in his general direction. She kept calling him her brother, as if. The longer he worked with her, the more he admired her. She was completely opposite of the opinion the public had of her. She’d given so much of herself, her time and her money for a cause that most ignored. She worked as hard at being a good mother as she did at being an award wining actress. Everything about her was sexual, maternal and compassionate and she would never be his.

Angelina answered, without turning away from her son. “Everyday? No, every two or three days.”

“I don’t think that’s a good idea.” Colin warned. He could see she was heading for pain. He’d do all he could to stop her.

Angelina turned back to face Colin. “I know and soon there won’t be any more. It’s just that Mad gets a bit anxious when he doesn’t hear from Brad.”

“That’s not what I meant and you know it.” She saw him as a brother, then brother he’d be. “He’s in London sweetheart, minding his wife.”

Angelina’s face paled with Colin’s words. Why was he being so hateful? “I know where he is and I dam…don’t need you to remind me of it.”

“You know where he is and you know what he’s doing, or is that who he’s doin…” Colin didn’t finish his sentence, Angelina interrupted him.

“Don’t…Colin!” She brought her voice down again, realizing Mad do was looking at them both now. “So help me…”

Reaching across the table, Colin pushed a stray curl from Angelina’s face. “Shhhh…I’m sorry baby. You know me. Just getting a rise.” Turning his cheek forward. “Go ahead give me that hot left hook of yours.”

Angelina shrugged it off. “It’s okay. I think that I’m just a bit too sensitive these days.” Nodding at his cheek, she muttered. “Don’t tempt me.”

“Mommy…” Maddox ran over to the table.

Angelina wrapped an arm around the child, drawing him close. “Yeah baby?”

“Braddy wants to talk to you!” Handing her the phone, the little boy ran over to Colin and climb into his lap. “Hi!”

“Hi yourself!” Colin hugged the little boy. Maddox was such a sweet, happy little boy. Angie was doing a hell of a job with this kid. Colin hated to see either one of them get hurt. Perhaps he should pay Brad a visit and find out just what the hell was really going on. He didn’t blame the man for his obsession. Hell! He’d worked with her almost a year ago and he was still obsessed.

There was something about Angie…how did Val put it? She made a man ‘feel’ things. Lord only knew what she’d made Brad feel. But the difference between he and Brad was a wedding band and he’d be damned if he were going to sit by and let this man destroy Angie’s hard earned happiness and stability. No one really knew how bad a job Billy Bob had done on her. Part of her was still afraid of commitment and being chased by a married man damn sure wasn’t helping. ‘Yeah.’ Colin thought. ‘He’d pay Bradley a little visit once they were stateside.’

Watching Maddox draw Colin’s attention, Angelina rose from the table and moved out of ear shot of both man and child, before speaking. “Hi.” She breathed into the phone.

Waiting for the sound of that voice. The voice she knew in her heart she was born to recognize.

~~~~~~~~~~~~

DECEMBER 17, 2004
The Dorchester Hotel
London England
7:20pm

“Hi.” What was he doing? He was in London to talk to Jennifer and here he was pining for just a whisper of her voice.

“I thought we agreed you would only call for Maddox.” Angelina needed to keep them on track. Someone had to. “Why?”

She didn’t need to finish. He knew what she was asking but he had his own question that needed to be answered. “Why is Colin there?”

“Brad…?”

“Answer me. Why is he there?” Brad barked into the phone. He couldn’t begin to explain the searing jealousy that had raced through him at the sound of Colin’s name on her lips. Why was the man there, poaching on his territory?

“He’s a friend and he came over for a visit, that’s all.”

“I don’t like it.” Brad’s voice held all the abstinence of a stubborn child when told to eat his vegetables.

“And I don’t like the fact that you’re married. But I don’t have choice, do I? I don’t like waking up in the middle of the night aching. But how do I stop my unconscious mind from dreaming of something that can never be?”

Brad’s voice raised an octave. “You think I don’t have the same dreams? Do you know how much it’s taking me to sit her and simply talk to you when what I really want to do is get to you anyway I can? Do you!?”

Jumping, Angelina reacted to the sharpness in Brad’s voice. “Brad…this…this is not helping either one us and it damn sure isn’t helping Maddox.” Taking a deep shaky breath she continued. “You don’t need to tell me how hard it is for you…I feel it…everyday…every moment…I feel it too! So don’t tell me how hard it is for you right now.”

Brad heard the anguish in Angelina’s voice. An anguish that was mirrored in his own soul. “Angel…”

“Don’t. You’re here to work out things with your wife. This has to stop. There’s no place for it to go.”

He couldn’t accept that. “Ang…”

“No…no more and you know I’m right.” She made her decision in that moment. “I don’t want you to call Mad anymore.”

“Listen…” She interrupted again.

She didn’t dare give him a chance to wear her down and change her mind. She had to do this for him…Mad…herself. “I said no more Brad.”

“What about Maddox?” He knew that he was hitting below the belt, but he didn’t care. Maybe he was being selfish. But he couldn’t just let her disappear from his life. Mad…Mad, it would likely kill him to let that child go But she was right, he was in London to work thing out with Jen. But did he really want that?

“Maddox will be fine.” She answered quietly. There was only one thing to say. “Go work out your marriage. We’ll be fine.” She didn’t bother to say good bye. She simply hung up the phone.

Brad didn’t call back. Instead he prepared himself to make one of the most important decisions of his life.

~~~~~~~~~~

Angelina walked back over to where her son rough-housed with Colin. Mad glanced up at his mother. “Is Brad gone?”

Angelina held her arms out to the child, who glad ran into them. Picking him up, she let him straddled her hip. “Soooo…are you ready for another adventure?”

Clapping excitedly, the toddler asked. “Where? Where mommy?”

“Well we are going to visit some of mommy’s friends in Moscow and then back to Lebanon.”

“I can see my friends.” Maddox referred to the children who’d befriended him back in August when they’d paid their first visit to the refugee camps and hospitals.

Angelina was happy. The trip would help her keep Maddox’s mind off of Brad.

To bad there’s wasn’t a trip that would do the same for her.

TO BE CONTINUED…

I agree. Couldn't say better.
I'll be the first to buy it.

Ahhh... now I can go to bed. Wonderful stuff.

Will put on my thinking cap re publishing. All the romance publishers have guidelines for their books. Though a lot will only accept submissions from an agent, many still don't require that you have an agent.

Actually, I live in Thailand, Rica.

Night.

Rica you did it again. It was great! Wow ! bring on the next fanfic, ASAP.

Where can i find Rica's story from the beginning? Thanks.

Rica,

A word to describe just a simple "Thank You" may not be enough...but THANK YOU, RICA.
My heart is pounding sometimes when I read your FANFIC. I am not much of a Book reader or Romance boo reader, but your FanFic is so excellent, you have a way with words, the little details. I don't know, I just love your FANFIC that's it.

To Ms. African Girl:

Count me in, Where do I sign?

what can I say rica, you did it again!!!!!! i know this is fiction, but this last entry, i had a tear in my eye!!!!!! i know, i'm a looser.!!!! this is so compelling!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Ohhhhh Rica:

I could feel their pain as I read your words......(and I have already read them at least ten times, since you posted) girl you are the best.....no romance novel have ever made me feel so much for the characters......YES GIRLS, WE MUST GET HER PUBLISHED.....
Keep it coming Rica....you have truely enslaved us with your words....
BAMZ+1 RULES

Thank you!!! :-)

rica, you're the best!!

bamz+1 rocks!!

Sorry guys I did notice (too late for post of course) That the dates are off.

This conversation takes place on the 16th of December not the 17th as it says in the beginning I forgot to correct that.

Hi Rica,
Thank you so much for sharing your fanfics with us. You really need to publish this because this is better than many of the romance books I've read. You really captured the right tone for Brad and Angie. And threading in "factual" info into the story just makes it more exciting- as if this is really what happened between them. I am as addicted to your fanfics as I am to the BAMZ+1 family. Thanks

Hay Rica!!!
wow,wow,wow it sounds so real . Thanks ,Thanks.
I read so much fanfic stories about B&A but this is the best ever.

Rica,

Your Fanfic is just wonderful. I'm just about in tears at the ending you left us with! Are you a writer or just inspired by the love story? Please, continue to post it here at JJ. I'm sure I'm not the only one who can't write worth a darn, so not acceptable to the Adult site. Long may you type, and thank you!

***RICA****

EXCUUUUSE ME!

I think you promised me that 20% Missy. Just because I've been on that other site all day today doesn't mean I have forgotten about your fanfics...

I don't even have to read your fanfic to know it's going to be good.

Just like famous people to start turning on you as soon as they make it BIG!!!

LOL Me Again. Rica won't forget u, we won't let her forget you. Do we also get a cut of your 20%?

Me Again- I have much bigger plans for you. How about personal assistant. More money and a travel package!!! LOL!!!

Rica - can you give us a clue when we can expect our next chapter? Pleeeeeeeeeeeeesase. I'll be your PA for free.......I drive a 350Z Nissan so you'd be hauled around in style.

Okay...I'm nothing like Holly...I have two kids of my own.

I'd love to know where all you Rica Fans live - as in what city? Mine is Vancouver, British Columbia Canada

Thanks African Girl. I've emailed jared as you instructed. Rica, what's next?

Love Chapter 9, you are so good Rica...thank you.
I live in Southern California, USA

Rica, If you're interested you may want to browse Ellora's Cave, my favorite e-book site, and take a look at their requirements for publishing. Now they're pretty hot ladies so don't faint when you view their site. But, they do have a sister-publishing company, Cerridwen Press, if you'd prefer to take it down a notch on the erotism. Here it is: http://ellorascave.com/ or http://www.cerridwenpress.com/

Keep up the good work RICA you're awesome!

I'm in southern california....love the fanfic!!!!!!!! Can't wait to read how angie tells brad she's pregnant!!!!!!!!

Since no one listens to me...I live in Slidell, LA...35 mins from New Orleans. I asked you guys to come down and give the "Big Easy" some business a couple of weeks ago...then we were suppose to go on a trip to France on my company expense...you ladies are losing the memory...8-)

Kercy...I can't wait when BP tells JA it's over pack up her shit and leave his house he's in love with a real women...now that one is going to be good...but of course he will have to give JA a little nooky before she walks out the door so she'll know..."MAN I MESSED UP...BIG TIME"

Rica...you might have to post that one on the Everything Adult website...you got to get down and dirty with that one...ya know

Also, I emailed your list back to you as requested.

Oh...and to Rica Fan...let's not start a cat fight now...if I'm the PA...then I'm the PA. That's my career anyway...

Lot's of luv to all the BAMZ+1 FANS...thanks Jared for bringing us together...

Rica that's superb!!! Keep it coming!!!!

Honestly Me Again you crack me up. I am all for the trip to france but I have one question. What happens to us, if right in the middle of our fun trip, your company finds out and the cut off the expense account....you know what, I'd just have my American Express just in case. LOL

And since there is an issue about who gets to be Rica's PA, I nominate myself as the person who casts the deciding vote. (Let the sucking up begin!)

Rica, I also sent my list back. Liked the personal touch you added. And I am in the Windy City (Chi-Town Baby, Don't know for how long though, making plans to move to Boston soon)

i live in northern ca...near san francisco/east bay

btw....the last scenes of MAMS were done the last few days of the shoot..........if you watch the dvd/special features/directors commentary talks about this. the first scenes, the first day of shooting......excuse my french, but, brad, must of had a walking hard on for over a year..............not any more!!!!! rica, absolutely loving your story....

Rica!!!! Amazing fanfic! So happy i finally located this thread, i was worried there for a while, but i finally tracked it down. Great stories, a wonderul read. Can't wait for more!!!

hey hey african girl, i live in chicago too!

I love the last scene of MAMS, when they were at the therapist....they seems to be so comfortable, relax and fun....it was like no acting involved...just being themselves....I love her shoes...from the famous christian louboutin with his bottom red shoe trademark. I hope she gets to keep all those shoes.

Thanks Rica, nice job. Love the story. Keep them coming. I live in Tampa, Florida.

Everyone go to FHM to vote for the 2006 sexiest woman alive. AJ is leading right now.

I live in asia , I had to stay awake all night just for the latest sequel of rica fanfic. great imagination yet so real. can't wait for the next episode. more power to rica !

i voted! yeah

Love your Fanfic! Can't wait for the next installment.

From Northern California her, Stockton CA.

Hi everybody!! I have been working doubles for the past few days. I'm am so worn out and totally BAMZ detoxing on top of it!! No bueno!!

I live in St. Louis, MO USA. I am single but dating a guy I met in Vegas who lives in Chicago. Maybe I will end up in the Windy City. You never know :)

I hope to get caught back up with everyone on the back end of this week as I only have one double left to go on Saturday. Doesn't leave much time for my long distance love :(

But I have you guys so that's cool :)

Just got home from work ... Rica your story was just what the doctor ordered at the end of long and difficult day...

Estelle, what is FHM? Me again. I love New Orleans . I grew up going to New Orleans every year for Easter. Until 2 years ago when one of us died , I used to go on a yearly girls trip with a few of my college friends. Tess, what part of Asia?

Lola, I register on the site you were kind enough to tell us about . Now ....What is it all about? I generally don't go on blind faith but I knew that you would not lead me astray.

Rica , I have made contact her in Dallas with Mary, another woman of substance. She wants to be put on the list so I will be sending you her e-mail address.

I was channel surfing and ended up on what looks to be a scene from a first season "Friends" ...

I hardly ever watched it so most that I see now are for the first time. As always I like Phoebe, As always I find it boring and over acted. But I was noticing that Jen lookdifferent but really cute. Her hair curly and there is a roundness to her face that is very attractive. I am not trying to be offensive but did she get cheek implants?I am watching the episode where Phoebe's bank gives her money and in this show, Jen's cheeck are round and cheekbones are not visible. If that is just extra pounds then they look good on her. Sne definitely should consider curl in her hair...It would softern her features.

Elena, FHM is For Him Magazine. Here is the link to vote for Angelina:

http://www.fhmus.com/girls_100_sexiest.asp?cnl_id=1&stn_id=72

voted...

Hey ladies...I think this party is coming to an end. BP/AJ are really staying out of site...not too much buzz for the couple which is good for them ya know. I just miss seeing them in he news everyday. I would rush home get some homework out with the kids and start dinner quick so I could see the next big news event regarding them...now...nothing.

It was great while it lasted. I guess we will have to wait until the baby is born...but then again we have Rica's fanfics to help us out.

I guess if Rica is too busy, maybe ange could step in. Has anyone seen a comment from Ange? Has she gone back to NYC?

Times like these I wish I knew how to write an interesting storyline/fanfic. Cuz if I did...boy you ladies would be falling out right about now...but boring me...I'll leave it all up to Rica...

As you can see...I'm a good actress...might get that role with BP one day and babe you never know what might happen...hey I have two kids!!

#480 dolphingirl...thanks for the infor...i've voted for angie and put her name on all the numbers, from one to ten....she is the only sexiest woman alive as far as i am concern....preggers or not :) :)

so bamz+1 lovers, please go to the link dolphingirl suggested and vote angie as the sexiest chickie babe alive!!!

bamz+1 rocks!!

#481 | Me Again!

i just saw a video of the bamz family at www.tmz.com....with mad dancing inside the restaurant.... i think they get tired of being photographed every time they go out...which is bad for us bamz+1 addicts/peeps ....besides mickey (short white haired guy), they hired big guys as additional bodyguards, maybe while they are in berlin.... in the video, one of the guys is so tall and huge that it's nearly hard to see angie and brad....well, we can still enjoy bamz+1 by always coming back to jared site and hopes that jared has new pics of bamz and to share our love with this family....and MOST IMPORTANTLY to wait BREATHELESSLY for the next episode of rica's fanfic...

rica is the best fanfic writer...with her imagination, some real facts and eloquent story telling!!

I live in Connecticut, and thank you, Rica. I swear you actually know these people... I'll bet Colin speaks exactly this way. You should consider writing a screenplay, although who could do them justice? Did you ever hear from Nancy? She said she had some inside stuff for your stories. One question, though..doesn't Angelina drinks red wine?

Sawasdee Deb,
I live in Thailand too. Are you in Bangkok?

LADIES...
:-)

You guys are absolutely nutts!!!! But I love it!
PA???? Hmmmm To be fair 'Me Again' didput her services...er...name out there. So we have to think of more titles. All well paid of course!!!

Hey Me Again' I didn't forget the Big Easy offer. I was just waiting for the BAMZ bus. Sooo...are we still going?

I figure if they cut the card off we'll all just be the resourceful women we are and figure something out. But whatever we do it will be fun!

African girl' and Alicia I'm from Chicago Born adn raised there. Stayed there until I was 31 and moved to Orlando, FL and will be relocating to Las Vegas in May for the next two years and then on to bigger brighter more International things.

I did vote and I have TWO questions:
"Who actually...I mean really...who finds The Olsen Twins sexy (other than Pederasts...taht is)?

And Reese Witherspoon? UUUGGHH...the girl is NOT sexy. It's like judging your baby sister. EEEIIIWWW. How do you put her in the same competition with Angelina and say...Monica Bellucci. Oh good grief.

Addicted to BAMZ+1 I did talk to Nancy and she gave me some good info. Ange is in New York and I myself will be flying out in about 2 hours (very long flight...uggh...leg cramps), So I must apologize but I didn't apologize really have time to finish the next installment. I'll have to add it to Monday's.

OKAY

I'm sorry guys I am working on 3 hours sleep and I'm rushing around trying to get everything together. My flight leaves in (looks at her watch) less than 2 hours and it is a 19 hour flight. I am NOT looking forward to it!

I meant to type:

I did speak to Nancy and she passed on some great info

Ange is in NYC, I spoke to her before she left.

And because I was up brainsorming and putting the finishing touches on this darn propasal I didn't finish today's installment. I will add it to Monday's post.

Sorry girls.

Awwwww, well we understand Rica (sigh). I am sure we can wait till monday, it would be hard, but we will try.

Thanks for all the hardwork. Have a nice and safe flight. We'll be here waiting for you.

BTW CHICAGO RULZ (had to add that)

have a good trip rica! we'll all be looking forward to monday. i can actually get some homework done!!!

thanks rica...take care and we'll wait eagerly for the next fanfic...have a safe trip!!

Hey y'all, I'm living in Boston, MA but hope to branch out into the world in a year or two. I'm giving some serious thought to living abroad. Why? Why not.

Elena, I'm glad that you joined Everything Adult (EA). Its a fairly new forum for aspiring romance/erotic authors and those who like to read good stories. I'm not part of the admin - just a fellow member (willow) who just loves Rica's stories so much that I just had to share them with everyone at EA. The members are fun and cool and without attitude and are in love with Brangelina.

Rica,
Monday can't come fast enough because I'm jonesin for an update. Can't wait till Colin and Brad have a little talk. ;)

Rica, have a safe trip, can't wait to have you back! Also, on the FHM sexiest woman site did anyone else find it funny that not only were the olsen twins listed, but they occupied the same spot? I mean they don't even get individual ranking!

I'll try to wait until monday (I guess everyone will). I'll do my best cause damn this fanfic its very good.
Have a safe trip.

BAMZ+1 RULES

Have a safe trip Rica! Youu and Jared are the reson why I started coming here.

Oh, forgot to say: I sent you the email with my name there (the role call) If I understood correctly you are going to update one list only with all our names and emails and send it to each of us, right? That´s great!

Have only now had a chance to read your fanfic and I am crazy in love wih it. Thank you Rica! Jared, please give her my email address too so I can receive this fantastic fanfic! Thank you both so very much! This really is my 'secret delight!'

Rica,

I have to confess I haven't been following your fanfic because (a) I've never been into romance novels and (b) I don't want to distract the facts from fiction. I know with your great imagination you could easily do that for me. But I don't doubt you have the goods in your talent. Just look at the fans you've gained. As I mentioned before, job well done!!

Alas, nancy threw a bone that's too tempting to pass up. So, could you do this non-fan of romance novels a favor in putting winks ;) where you incorporating the spilled beans. I'll take those beans wherever I can get them!

Have a nice and safe trip. Should you ever get a publishing deal, please be sure to share the good news with us so we can give you proper congratulations and a cyber party.

;) Cindy2, asks Rica to e-mail you the bean if she wish, it's her beans now...you deserve it....but keep the bean to yourself. Thank You.

Rica I got your email thanks! I Live in connecticut. Voted for the FHM! Angie's gonna win!

rica, please ask jared for my email address. is that how it's done? i would love to be on the fanfic email list........

# 500 | kerchy

Do this way instead: email jared and ask him to forward it to Rica. That´s how I did it.

Rica,
I come to JJ to see the pictures and never read the comments on Brad and Angie because they turn into a hate match. By mistake I hit onto the end of these postings and had to start reading. I have been sitting here for over an hour (when I should be washing my clothes) Thanks for the great read. I so behind.
And to the other people who write nice about BAMZ thanks. I needed to see I wasn't the only one that likes them.

Rica, Keep up the good work. I'm loving the fanfic.

NANCY!!! I'm so glad you spilled some bean for Rica...I agree, hope she is able to let us know when she has incorporated your contributions into the story. 'Til Monday...

# 502 | Alero

I very much understand you Alero. From now on, I´ll do the same, only come here to read Rica´s fics.

Good Morning Ladies!!!

I hope you all had a wonderful Weekend. I am about to hit the hay! God only knows what time it is here but sleep calls me...so before I sign out I'm posting as promised.

Talk to you all later...have fun!!!!

PART TEN
The Demise of the ‘Golden Couple’ Cont…

DECEMBER 16, 2004
FIFTEEN
The Naked Chef, Jaime Oliver’s Restaurant
London England
9pm

“I really love this restaurant.” Jennifer spoke softly; smiling at the passing patrons as they recognized her and Brad.

Brad smiled and waved as well, though his mind was hundreds of miles away. “Yeah, Jaime’s a great chef.” Though the opposite seemed obvious by the full plate of food that sat in front of him.

Jen noticed the plate as well. “You wouldn’t know it. Look at your plate. You’ve hardly touched a thing.” Though for some reason her appetite was healthy.

Shaking his head in distraction he half answered. “Not that hungry.”

“Bullocks! You usually have the appetite of a horse.” Jaime Oliver’s East End accent broke into their quiet conversation.

Brad stood up to greet his friend. “Jamie! How are you man?” Brad returned to his seat, watching Jaime greet his wife. “Join us for a bit.”

“Well just for a bit.” Jaime seated himself and gestured to one of the waiters, requested a glass of wine.

“We were just talking about the wonderful meal. This is truly a wonderful restaurant.” Jennifer reached for her glass of wine.

“So I heard.” Jamie responded.

“How did you know we were here?” Jennifer asked

“I just followed the den of excitement. As if the great Brad Pitt could move about without a furor starting.”

Jennifer, a bit peeved that Jaime seemed to forget that she was there with Brad, added her own thoughts. “I know they’ve been interrupting ‘us’ all evening.”

Jaime corrected his snafu and amended all by including Jennifer in the assessment. “Well you two are the ‘Golden Couple’ after all. I apologize for any inconvenience.”

Brad’s annoyed gaze found Jennifer. “Jennifer?” He waved off Jaime’s apology. “No apology needed. The patrons haven’t been interrupting, they were simply greeting us. Jen is just a bit sensitive that’s all.”

“Well just the same, I’ll have the word put out that you two are to be left alone, while you are here.” Jaime was happy to let the matter drop. Snapping his fingers loudly, Jaime proclaimed. “Yeah now…wait. If memory serves me…you’re another year older in a day or two, eh mate?”
