Jennifer Lopez and Marc Anthony are so desperate for press that the Latin couple leaked an invited to their housewarming party and renewal of vows to the media. The singers, hoping to attract attention, invited A-list celebrities like Tom Cruise, Katie Holmes, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie to their brand new $10 million Hidden Hills, California home on Saturday night. A source said “They wanted to celebrate their new home and their sixth anniversary by renewing their vows. They’re excited about their new life together as a family in California and wanted to kick it off with a great party. Jen is very excited about sharing her special night with her family and friends.” Too bad absolutely no one cared.
Wyclef Jean has implored Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie to consider adding to their family by adopting a child from earthquake-stricken Haiti.
“Brad and Angie, please! Please adopt a child from Haiti!” the singer has begged the celebrity duo, Us Magazine reports.
“I have so many celebrity friends who have really supported this cause [relief efforts in Haiti] and who continue to support this cause.
“Our job is to help those little kids, to give them a chance. If we give them a chance they’ll have a better tomorrow.”
Pitt and Jolie are parents to three adopted children, Maddox from Cambodia, Zahara from Ethiopia and Pax from Vietnam. They also have three other children, a daughter Shiloh, and twins Vivienne and Knox.
Earlier this year the Academy Award-winning actress said: “I’m always open to children around the world. We’re that kind of family. Brad and I talk about that.”
Actor Brad Pitt has spent $100,000 building a new run for his children’s gerbils.
The father-of-six, 45, loves architecture and oversaw the project – which includes a maze of tunnels, seesaws and platforms for the gerbils – at the home he shares with Angelina Jolie, in France.
A source said: “Brad pores over architectural journals like other people pore over newspapers. He had so much fun putting the run together with his kids Maddox, Zahara, Shiloh and Pax.
“it’s incredibly complex and cost a lot, but Brad’s more than happy with any activity that can combine his two passions – his kids and architecture.”
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have reportedly bought gerbils for their two oldest sons Pax and Maddox.
Brad, 45, and Angelina, 34, reportedly arrived at their chateau in France and later took their sons Maddox, eight, and Pax, five, to a local pet store where they bought gerbils and goldfish.
It is claimed they visited the Jardinerie du Centre Var store in Brignoles, France, and Angelina reached in to pet the gerbils while partner Brad looked around the store.
They then bought a cage and equipment for the new pets and bought their son Maddox a cactus.
Brad Pitt, a New Orleans homeowner, has ruled out running for mayor amid growing speculation and local support.
Pitt, whose home is in the city’s French Quarter, told a major television network: “It’s not what I do.”
He also said: “I don’t have a chance.”
Pitt has put major dollars and effort into rebuilding the ninth ward of the city that was ravaged by Hurricane Katrina almost four years ago.
In fact, Pitt does not meet the candidacy requirement of at least five years’ residency in the city. Pitt and Angelina Jolie bought their house after August 2005.
Pitt started the Make It Right Foundation, which has a goal of building 150 storm-resistant, energy-efficient houses. “It’s going to be the greenest neighborhood in the United States,” he said. “I want to see this through. It means something to me.”
A ‘lost’ film in which Angelina Jolie made her screen debut at the age of five is to be released on DVD for the first time.
The screen beauty played the daughter of her real-life estranged father, Jon Voight, in flick, Lookin’ To Get Out.
The Las Vegas-set comedy, directed by Hal Ashby, was shot in 1980 on a budget of US$17 million, but did not get a theatrical release until two years later.
It was a huge critical and box-office failure – selling less than a million dollars worth of tickets.
And it has never been available on video until Tuesday’s DVD release of the newly edited version.
Jolie’s scene with Voight lasts just over a minute.
He explains to the blonde child that he’s wearing bandages because he crossed against traffic and that he comes from New York.
The girl replies that the man she believes is her father – Ann-Margret’s male companion in the movie, played by Richard Bradford – “visits New York” a lot.
“I was a co-writer and co-producer, so I had a lot to say about the casting,” said Voight, 70.
He told the newspaper: “Angie was terrific, very well-prepared. I wasn’t looking for any signs whether she’d be an actress.”
Tomb Raider actress Jolie, 34, has been estranged from her father for several years after he accused her of having “serious mental problems” on a US TV show.
Transformers star Megan Fox has admitted she is more of a comedian than a sex symbol.
Megan, 23, stars alongside Shia LaBeouf, also 23, in the new action flick.
She is regularly compared to Angelina Jolie, 34, and the star said she doesn’t think she is that similar to the actress.
She said: “I think there is a slight lack of creativity from the media on that one. I get that I’m tattooed and I have dark hair, but she is like a living tigress.
“She’s this angular, very sexual, aggressive woman. She’s like a warrior princess. People try to sell me as that, like I’m a femme fatale, but I’m not.
“I’m actually really silly. I’m more of a comedian than I am a sex symbol.”
Actress Megan Fox – tipped to become the new Lara Croft – has denied she is similar to Angelina Jolie, who played the video game heroine in two films.
Fox, 23, who stars in the new Transformers movie, said she is “more of a comedian than a sex symbol” and called Jolie, 34, a “living tigress” and a “sexual, aggressive warrior princess”.
She also said that despite her model looks, she wasn’t “overly confident” and that she isn’t a “femme fatale”.
Recently she has dated actor Brian Austin Green – but now says: “I’m currently what you would call single.”
Speaking on Australian radio, she dismissed the comparisons between her and Jolie, saying: “I think there’s a slight lack of creativity on the media’s part with that one.
“I guess that I’m tattooed and have dark hair make it possible.
“But she is like a living tigress, she’s like this angular, very sexual, aggressive warrior princess.
“People try to sell me as that, like I’m a femme fatale, but I’m actually really silly and really like more of a little comedian than a sex symbol.”
Transformers star Megan Fox is regularly compared to actress Angelina Jolie but she revealed she is actually scared of the star.
Fox, 22, told Scottish newspaper the Daily Record: “I’m actually frightened of her. I haven’t had the opportunity to meet her and I try to avoid that because I’m afraid. She’s a powerful person and I bet she would eat me alive.”
She added: “There have been a lot of films I’ve had to pass on because I don’t want people thinking I’m trying to emulate her.”
On her Marilyn Monroe tattoo, Fox said: “She’s a piece of artwork to me. I committed to having her face on my arm for the rest of my life, so I have to be a pretty big fan. Not in the sense that I ever want to emulate her. I just have a connection that I had from childhood. It’s what you’re exposed to and what makes sense to you when you’re a kid. I got it done after the first Transformers.”
Angelina Jolie angered animal lovers when she appeared on the set of her new movie wearing a fur-trimmed cape along with what looked to be a matching chinchilla-trimmed Russian hat.
The photos of Jolie, a UN Goodwill Ambassador, on the set of Salt in New York wearing clothes supposedly made from furry little creatures made animal rights organisation PETA angry.
But the film’s publicists have now confirmed that the outfit the actress was wearing was, in fact, fake fur.
PETA wrote on its website: “Yes, Angelina Jolie was spotted wearing what appeared to be a chinchilla-trimmed hat and cape on the set of her latest movie. But our LA staffers – knowing that Angelina is a long-time fur foe – were on it, and they’ve received word from the film’s publicist that [phew!] the chinchilla is actually synchilla.”
This is one tag that would help Jennifer Aniston overcome any remorse if at all from the split with John Mayer. Jennifer Aniston has earned more money in 2008 as compared to her former husband Brad Pitt’s current partner Angelina Jolie.
Jennifer Aniston is said to have earned a whopping $27 million mainly from endorsement but also because of hits such as Marley & Me. While during the same period the Tomb Raider actress is believed to have made $14 million. Thus Jennifer Aniston has earned $13 million more than Angelina Jolie. But even if the riches of these two actresses are combined then too it cannot match the figure of R&B singer Beyonce who made a staggering $80 million last year.
Jennifer Aniston would not be looking at the earning of Beyonce at all she has enough to boast of by beating rival Angelina. But of course money is not something that will be the ultimate barometer to satisfy Jennifer Aniston because she will always remain bitter about losing Brad Pitt to Angelina Jolie.
I think somewhere someplace we all need to get over that break up.
There will come a time when the paths of Jennifer Aniston, former husband Brad Pitt and partner Angeline Jolie will cross and this year’s Oscars Award might be that time. Jennifer Aniston, a certified hottie this year for the success of her movie “Marley & Me”, is a confirmed Oscars presenter this Sunday along with Jack Black of the boxoffice and critically-acclaimed “The Furious Five”. No one however knows if she would be walking the red carpet with boyfriend John Mayer who is also a certified hottie thanks to his Grammy Awards victory. John Mayer was however heard saying this is his first Oscars and his first being an Oscar boyfriend so he would be attending.
Another thing that’s certain is the attendance of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie since both are nominees. Brad Pitt is vying for the Best Actor category for “The Curious Case of Benjamin Button” while Angelina Jolie is vying for the Best Actress category for “Changeling”. This Sunday’s Oscars will definitely be a big night especially for the three stars who may still be bitter about each other. So who will outshine who?
Tune in tomorrow morning, February 12th, to Live With Regis and Kelly to see ten lucky girls vying for a date with Taylor Hicks! The American Idol alum is participating in the show’s “Dating With The Stars” contest which will score one winner a date with the soulful singer. The audience will then vote on which three ladies can compete to win a date with Taylor on Thursday, February 19th.
Taylor Hicks is currently touring with Grease, performing select solo dates and gearing up to release his album, The Distance, on March 10th.
Billy Bob Thornton the ex husband of Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie and a actor himself has made his wish to work with his ex-wife once more. Speaking on his wish to work with the actress Billy says “I’d like to do another movie with Angie one of these days. We talk all the time. She and I will keep looking for something to do together; we just have to find the right thing.”
The couple met each other on the sets of the movie Pushing Tin in the year 1999 and got married in 2000 but with 3 years they decided to split after which Jolie became the partner of Hollywood heartthrob Brad Pitt. Prior to her marriage to Billy, Angelina was married to British actor Jonny Lee Miller in 1990 and divorced in 2000.
I guess there is no harm working with one of your ex-husbands, really there are so many to choose from that Hollywood studio bosses could create a hilarious comedy or a sex biopic on such true live stories.
The actress’ husband, Brad Pitt, joked about the couple being overdue with their next child. He said: We average about two a year, so I guess we’re overdue, aren’t we?” But of course Angelina Jolie doesn’t shy away from being a xenomorph queen and said about having more children: “If they come our way, we’d be happy to have them all. We love children.” But seriously, they already have like 6 of them, what are do they think this is: the repopulation contest? Do they think we’re going to colonize Mars in the near future and there will be a need of people to do the job? Maybe that way we will all get in touch with the real xenomorphs, I’m sure their queen will be jealous when she finds out about Angelina Jolie’s performance.
Brad Pitt says that he ain’t too good at cooking things but in the same tune he insists that Angelina Jolie is no better than him and said that at best she’s only been able to prepare “cereal” for him.
The Hollywood couple has six children and raises all of the six together, but Pitt admits in between the two both are not gifted with even basic skills to be able to conjure up a meal for their family – because they just can’t cook.
But Brad you guys have what scores of the Hollywood couples do not and that is you remain good friends and partners to one another despite not being officially married. Marriage at times means being bound by a relationship and breaking a relationship is not always the easiest of thing to do.
You always put in your best efforts to save it but here you guys are not bound but yet to remain faithful and bounded by love and affection.
She already has more than half a dozen kids including the genetically-born kids to her and the ones she has adopted from all over the globe. And still she wants more…….
The “Tomb Raider” hottie gave birth to twin babies a couple of months ago and she has already expressed her desire to adopt another child soon.
During an interview on the Today show at the NBC Studios in New York City, when asked about her future plans for adopting more children, she responded, “It depends. You can’t even start the process until any new children are six months old, to understand how the new family has settled to see what you could absorb into a new family.”
I am sure that after some years, Angelina Jolie and her loving hubby Brad Pitt would be able to produce their own movies with complete cast from their own home.
Jon Voight has branded Roseanne Barr as “evil” for launching a vicious attack on his daughter Angelina Jolie and her hubby Brad Pitt.
Roseanne posted a bitter tirade against the Hollywood couple on her website, accusing them of donating money to charity for the sole purpose of building themselves a reputation as heroes of humanitarian causes.
The sitcom queen also slated the pair for only splashing out a tiny percentage of their multi-million dollar earnings, hinting they should be parting with a great deal more to better the lives of those less fortunate.
Now veteran actor Jon has hit back, insisting Roseanne can’t be taken seriously after she was exposed as a “psychopathic liar” for allegedly telling tales about her childhood.
He ranted: “We can never be surprised at what vile evil comes from the mouth of a confessed victim of child abuse at the hands of her own parents. Roseanne’s parents responded to the accusation by going on air and slating she is a psychopathic liar and her sister agreed.”
Jon also pointed to the occasion Roseanne sparked outrage with her rendition of the Star Spangled Banner before a 1990 baseball game in San Diego, during which she screeched throughout the tune before grabbing her crotch and spitting.
He added: “That gave us an insight into who she is and what she is capable of saying and doing.”
The Midnight Cowboy legend is also enraged at the comedienne for ridiculing Angelina’s indecision over which presidential candidate to endorse ahead of the US election.
Roseanne wrote on her blog page: “Miss Jolie says she likes John McCain too and hasn’t decided who to endorse… huh? Aren’t you supposed to be somewhat enlightened, or do you not know that the African daughter you hold in every picture had parents who suffered and died because of the Republican party’s worldwide economic assault on Africa over the last few decades since Ronald Reagan?”
She proceeded to call Angelina and her hubby Brad “evil” for “trying to look as if they give a c**p about humanity as they spit out more dunces that will consume more than their fair share and wreck the earth even more”.
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie take this Goodwill Ambassador stuff pretty seriously. And you have to admire them for giving away money…
Through their Jolie-Pitt Foundation, they are giving $1 million to the Education Partnership for Children of Conflict. The money goes to American and Iraqi children who suffer from the war.
Angelina says, “These educational support programs for children of conflict are the best way to help them heal.” Brad says, “We hope to encourage others to give to these great organizations.”
