Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are Making Another Film

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt will be shooting their second film together on location in Malta.
The movie is a romance and an "experimental, independent-type" film.
So that means no "Mr. & Mrs. Smith 2".
And it will probably bomb at the box office, but get a lot of awards.
But hey....Mr & Mrs Smith got bad reviews but still made over $500 million at the box office.
I guess it's a trade off.

Angelina Jolie Takes a Break From The Tourist

Even though the tabloids have been saying that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are on the rocks (when haven't they?) Brangelina somehow managed to fly down to Bosnia over the weekend.
I guess the nay-sayers will come out with an explanation for that.
As you probably know, Angelina is a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations (she has been since 2001), and she has done a lot of work for them.
But now Brad is going with her.
And Angelina actually took a break from the six kids, and working on "The Tourist" (with Johnny Depp) in Venice, Italy to fly down.
Or is it fly over?
Anyway, Brad and Angelina weren't there for the publicity, because they tried to avoid the spotlight as much as possible.
Well as much as a couple that famous can at least.

And in other news, Columbia Pictures released the full theatrical version movie trailer for Angelina's upcoming film "Salt".
And of course Screamingangie1 has it, and you can see it here:

Angelina Jolie, Tila Tequila, Haiti and News of the World

Wow....Tila Tequila thinks Angelina Jolie is copying her.
Yes, the former MTV reality show star said "Oh so now Angelina Jolie is trying to adopt a baby from Haiti! Ha! Copying me much?? I used to like her, but having that many kids is abuse!"

Well Angelina did go to Haiti, she is after all a Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.
She and Brad Pitt have donated one million dollars to Doctors without Borders for their emergency medical operations in Haiti.
And when Angelina was in Haiti, she met with Edmond Mulet, acting U.N. Special Representative for Haiti and senior U.N. staff at their headquarters.
She also met with Haitians doing quake debris cleanup and she spent the night in a Brazilian military camp outside Port-au-Prince.

Brad has been quoted as saying that Angelina is "always open to children around the world," but she will not be adopting a kid from the earthquake-devastated country any time soon.

And Angelina told CNN that "For somebody who is an adoptive parent, I understand the urge to assist in that way. But now is not the time, an emergency is not the time for new adoptions in any way."

Maybe we should get Tila a RSS news feed so she can keep up with all this.

And in other news, Brad and Angelina are firing back at the British tabloid, News of the World, for the story they ran last month that alleged the couple were working out details of a split.
I guess they finally had enough of the rumor, so they have decided to sue News of the World.
As I have pointed out here before, it seems about every six months the tabloids run their "Brad and Angelina Are Breaking Up" story with a little variation each time.
Maybe a few lawsuits will stifle that noise.

Brad is one of the handsomest men in the world and Angelina is one of the most beautiful women so I guess that makes them targets.
But c'mon people, Angelina and Brad have done way more to help the world's children than a lot (maybe 95%) of the stars out there.
Sure they may have problems, who doesn't?
So the next time you see a tabloid article screaming some lurid details about their life, think about all the good they have done.
I hate to go all Biblical here, but read Matthew 7:15-20.
"By their fruit you will recognize them."

By the way, just for fun, I did an Angelina Jolie Versus Megan Fox Hub over at Hub Pages.
Guess who's in the lead....?

Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt and Brangelina

I guess in part due to the upcoming “Brangelina: The Untold Story of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie” by Ian Halpern, Angelina Jolie seems to be all over the tabloids again.

The Angelina tell-all book is written by the same man that wrote “Unmasked: The Final Years of Michael Jackson”.
And like his Michael book, this book makes heavy use of anonymous sources.
We all know how reliable they are right?
Anyway, the Brangelina book is supposed to be backed up by interviews with 900 people that know Brad and Angelina.
I guess 900 of their closest friends?

Halpern says in the book that a Angelina / Brad split is imminent.
Well...In December of 2008, Halperin said that Michael Jackson only had six months to live.
On June 25th, 2009 he passed away.
But while he was (frighteningly) right on target with Jackson's death, he was wrong about him having a whole laundry list of medical conditions.
So I guess we will have to wait and see if Brad and Angelina split up by the end of 2010.

But I guess the big real news about Angelina is that she and Johnny Depp will be starring in The Tourist, set for release in 2011.
And of course the leaked shower scene from the script has everyone going.
From what I understand, The Tourist is a remake of a 2005 film called Anthony Zimmer that starred Sophie Marceau and Yvan Attal.

And finally, Angelina seems to have fallen out of love with President Obama.
(It seems a lot of celebs are)
Before the election, Angelina told the German edition of Vanity Fair that Obama would be great for her family.
But now she is rumored to be openly criticizing him.
Now before you go the " she's just an actress what does she know?" route, remember that she is also a Goodwill Ambassador for the UN Refugee Agency, and has contacts all over the world.

Angelina Jolie News: Iraq, McDonalds and Wanted 2

Lots of Angelina Jolie news today so.....

Angelina made her third trip to Iraq last Thursday show her support for Iraqis affected by war.
Why three trips?
Well you have to remember that besides beign an actress, Angelina is also a U.N. High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR) Goodwill Ambassador.
Angelina first visited Iraq in 2007, then again in Februray 2009, and then again last Thursday.
On Thursday she toured a makeshift settlement on the outskirts of Baghdad on Thursday, where 20,000 Iraqis live.

And in other news, Angelina and Brad hit a McDonalds drive thru over the weekend.
Yep, thats actually being reported as news.
Details: Brad was driving, Angie rode shotgun and all the kids ( Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and the twins, Knox and Vivienne) were in the back.
No word on what they ordered.

And speaking of Knox and Vivienne, they turned 1 on July 12th.
Yes it's really been a little over a year since they were born.

And it looks like there will be a "Wanted 2" and that James McAvoy (Wesley Gibson) and Angelina (Fox) will both be in it.
But Fox died in the first one.
Ahhhh...but in movie sequels (like comic books and Wanted was loosely based on a comic book) people rarely stay dead.
At the San Diego Comic Con, director Timur Bekmambetov said that even though Fox was seriously wounded (yep) she was put in the "wax bath" from the first movie.
Can that heal her?
If Angelina Jolie signs on, trust me, they will find a way to get Fox back up and running.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, Mr and Mrs Smith 2?

There's a rumor floating around that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt want to make a sequel to their hit movie "Mr and Mrs Smith".
I say rumor because the only place I could find any info about it was the National Enquirer.
At least it didn't say Angelina and Brad were looking at an apartment on the Moon.
You may recall they met and fell in love on the set while they were filming back in 2005.
Brad was still married to Jennifer Aniston at the time.

Allegedly the sequel will have the couple....with kids.
Kids?
Mr and Mrs Smith with children?
Are we getting into Disney territory here?

I really liked the original.
And it grossed over $458 million world wide so it did pretty well.
Except in Colombia where they got a tad upset about the movie.
There was even talk of a spin off TV series.
Though not with Angelina and Brad.

Angelina and David Beckham?

Angelina Jolie has reportedly signed with Emporio Armani to become the hands-on spokesmodel of their new perfume.
The name of the perfume is as yet unrevealed, but Angelina is expected to be heavily involved in it's promotion.
So heavily involved, that Angelina is reportedly picking the photographers and directors for the ad campaign.

Of course David Beckham is also a spokesperson for Armani, so could we be seeing an ad campaign with both Angelina and David?
"No" according to Beckham.
Beckham told Extra that even though he is a huge Angelina fan, he wouldn't feel right about doing an ad with her.
He said...
"She's an amazing person and so is Brad Pitt. They're an incredible couple -- got an amazing family. You know she wouldn't do it and I wouldn't do it. At the end of the day, I wouldn't do it because I'm married."
http://www.sfgate.com/cgi-bin/blogs/sfgate/detail?blogid=7&entry_id=43593

Because he's married?
What kinda ad was David thinking they were gonna do?
Well evidently it was rumored to be very steamy.
Basically a traffic stopping billboard.
Like everything else with Angelina, we just have to wait and see what really happens.

Angelina Jolie, the Forbes List and More Kids?

Angelina Jolie knocked Oprah Winfrey out of the top spot on the Forbes Magazine’s Most Powerful Celebrities list.
The magazine cites Angie's busy year with “Kung Fu Panda,” “Wanted” and her new film “Salt,” earning her a cool $27 million dollars.
Also all the press (good and bad) about the birth of her twins (Vivienne and Knox) and with the constant media attention she gets from her relationship with Brad Pitt helped keep her in the limelight.
The annual Celebrity 100 list, ranks the rich and famous based on media exposure and career earnings over the past year.

And despite all the "break up" rumors we keep hearing, now there is a rumor that Brad and Angelina may finally be tying the knot.
And the big wedding may take place in the Caribbean.

And there is another rumor that seven maybe Brad and Angelina's lucky number.
Yes, by adoption or natural birth, the couple may be looking at adding another child to the clan.
Okay guys, "Be fruitful, and multiply, and replenish the earth, and subdue it" was written a long time ago.
You can stop now.

Are Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt Splitting up?

Are Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt Splitting up?

Now multiple sources are saying that Brad and Angelina are heading for a break up.
Again?
Yes, it seems it's that time of the year again when the media has decided enough is enough.
Again.

This time, it seems that Brad is tired of watching the kids 24/7 while Angelina shoots movies.
But imagine if this does go through this time.
An estimated $250 million fortune at stake, plus custody of the kids.
Throw in the Jennifer Aniston angle and you have the makings of a media firestorm.
Oh yeah, and don't forget the book by the former bodyguard.

Want proof of the break up?
Read this....
"Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's relationship is on the verge of coming to an end following a furious fight between the pair, according to reports."
http://www.hollywood.com/news/Jolie_and_Pitt_to_Split/4515894

Wait a second, that was August 02, 2007.
Hmmmm....how many times have we been through this?

How Many Angelinas Are There?

There are so many reports about Brad and Angelina everyday that you would think there are about four alternate reality Brangelina's running around.

Alternate Reality Brangelina One:
In this reality, Brad and the kids gave Angelina a beautiful Mother's Day present, an album containing love notes from each of their six children along with photos.

Alternate Reality Brangelina Two:
In this reality, Angelina is mad because Brad's Ex Jennifer Aniston is secretly giving Brad gifts.
"Secretly"?
The main stream media knows about it and is reporting it, how secret can it be?

Alternate Reality Brangelina Three:
In this reality, the cast and crew of her new movie "Salt" are concerned about her.
They think she is harming herself, not eating and crying everyday in her trailer.

Alternate Reality Brangelina Four:
In this reality, Brad has entered a rehab program for alcohol addiction and to get away from "the iron grip of Angelina Jolie".

Hey, maybe Spock can go back through time and tie up all these realities and fix everything.

Angelina and....Madonna?

Ahhhhh...now we know what Angelina was so upset about with the bodyguard's book.
It seems that the tell all book has details about Angelina's affair with “one of the biggest names in rock.”
Now...just who is the rock star alluded to in Mickey Brett's book?
Well get this...now it is rumored to be a female rock star.
Now...who is the rock star?
I have no idea, but I'm guessing Madonna.
Remember the Jenny Shimizu incident back in 2006?

And while the Brangelina war machine is gearing up to crush Brett's book before it gets out of the starting gate....word comes of an attack on another front.
Andrew Morton, the guy that wrote unauthorized biographies of Monica Lewinsky, Princess Diana and Tom Cruise, is now targeting Angie.

And is all the fireworks coming from the Jolie-Pitt camp the reason were seeing the obligatory Brad Pitt / Jennifer Aniston stuff now?
Touch magazine says that Brad visited Jennifer on the set of her new movie "The Baster", while Angelina was working on the set of her movie "Salt".
Of course this report is denied by all the reps of the people involved.
Besides the visit, the two have also allegedly been exchanging text messages and had lengthy phone calls.

Angelina Jolie and the Bodyguard

A former bodyguard of Angelina and Brad, Mickey Brett, is getting into hot water with the pair.
Brett has protected stars like Sandra Bullock,Tom Cruise, Nicole Kidman, Sly Stallone, Richard Gere and of course Brangelina.
But now his tell all memoir and possibly a TV show, seem to have Brad and Angie on the defensive.
It seems Brett really liked Angelina and speaks highly of her, but he doesn't hold Brad in the same high regard.
So Brad and Angelina have gotten some of the most feared libel attorneys in the U.S. and the U.K. to make sure Brett's story doesn't get out.

Which of course makes me wonder.
What did they do that they don't want everyone to know about?
Is it just a privacy issue?
Are Sandra Bullock,Tom Cruise, Nicole Kidman, Sly Stallone and Richard Gere this upset about the book?
I mean c'mon, it looks like Tom would be the first to launch an attack.

Now Angelina Jolie Didn't Collapse.....

Okay, it may seem like I'm fixated on the De-tox Diet thing....but now Sony has denied that Angelina Jolie collapsed on the set of her new movie "Salt"......

Studio: Angelina Jolie Did Not Collapse On 'Salt' Set
Despite internet rumors, Angelina Jolie did not collapse on the set of her new spy-thriller, "Salt," Access Hollywood has confirmed.
Earlier this week, a host of reports surfaced suggesting that the Oscar-winner had collapsed after looking fragile and weak on the set of "Salt," which she is currently filming in New York City and Washington DC.

Full story here

Angelina Jolie News

Wow...the Brangelina news has been flying hot and heavy the past couple of days.
Starting off...I think I mentioned something about being careful with that de-tox diet she was on in another post.
Well look what happened.....

Angelina Jolie 'Treated For Exhaustion on Movie Set'
By Adam, April 5 2009
Angelina Jolie has been treated for exhaustion on the New York set of her new movie Salt, according to reports.
The actress - whose relationship with partner Brad Pitt is reportedly close to collapse - was forced to see a doctor after complaining of dizzy spells.

Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston at Peace?

So is the tabloid war with Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston finally over?
Last week Brad Pitt took the twins to visit Jennifer with Angelina's blessing.
It's also rumored that Brad's mother Jane went with Brad to see his ex-wife.
The visit was allegedly to smooth things out before they all crossed paths at the Oscars.

Of course Brad will be there because of "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" which is nominated for Best Picture, and Brad is nominated for Best Actor.
And Angelina is nominated for best actress in "Changeling". And "Kung Fu Panda" is nominated for Best Animated Film (Angelina did the voice of Master Tigress).

Angelina and Brad Are Everywhere

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are busy running about and promoting Brad's new movie 'The Curious Case of Benjamin Button'.
They were in Germany recently where Brad's partying seemed to have annoyed Angelina who was basically along for the ride.

Of course since they are overseas, this makes them no-show nominees at the Oscars luncheon, which is kinda bad because not only is Brad nominated, but so is Angelina for lead actress in "Changeling".
But that's okay, big stars like Meryl Streep, and Philip Seymour Hoffman were no shows too.

And since Sarah Palin has gone back to Alaska, SNL needs a new target, and recently on the show they did a spoof of Angelina as a "serial adopter".

And finally "Kung Fu Panda" dominated the Annie Awards with 11 awards. That beat Pixar's "Ratatouille"'s run last year.

Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt and the Golden Globes

The Golden Globes were full of Angelina Jolie / Brad Pitt drama.
First, Brangelina dissed Ryan Seacrest.
Yeah, it's not a rumor, they did it.
You can see the video on YouTube where it happened.
http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=macYSPOl3dM

Then Kate Winslet forgets Angelina's name during her acceptance speech.
"I'm so sorry Anne, Meryl, Kristin - and who's the other one? Angelina. Now forgive me, is this really happening?"
Hey, she was stunned, give her a break.

Lastly, when Anne Hathaway won her award for Best Actress, the camera caught Angelina giving her some kind of laser death stare.
Okay, to be fair, some people say Anne was gushing like a teenager and deserved a real death ray, but hey, that's personal opinion.

Now if something bad happens to Anne Hathaway in the next few weeks I'm gonna do an entry on how Angelina has some kind of dark, evil super powers!

Angelina Jolie / Brad Pitt Pre Nuptial and Angelina in the Bible?

It seems like every week we have a new Angelina Jolie / Brad Pitt rumor.
The one this week that keeps getting smashed is the $200 million pre-nuptial agreement rumor.
The story was that Angelina had a pre-nuptial agreement drawn up to be signed before she married Brad Pitt.
But one of Angelina's reps has stated that "There is no truth to any of these claims."
Okay, is that the pre-nup claim or the wedding claim?
Brad Pitt has stated he was not going to get married until it was legal for everyone to get married. But that if he and Angelina felt it was important for the children, that they might do it anyway.
And Angelina has said that it might be easier to adopt were they husband and wife.

By the way, Angelina is in the new "Bible Illuminated: The Book - New Testament".
That's right, the Bible.
She appears in a section with Bono, Nelson Mandela, Mother Teresa, Ghandi, the Rev. Dr. Martin Luther King Jr., the Dalai Lama and Princess Diana, implying they all are messengers of God.
It's all a little too mind boggling for me, so here's the link to the article if you want to check it out.

Saint Angelina anyone?

Jennifer Aniston, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie

I think hardly a week goes by that you don't see Jennifer Aniston, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's names linked on a supermarket tabloid.
Jennifer is usually portrayed as the "innocent" party, but now is that tide changing?

Jennifer Aniston, Brad Pitt, And Angelina Jolie Are Caught In The Triangle
Jennifer Aniston has entered 'The Triangle' and doesn't look she realizes her ship may just go down over troubled waters. For years, Aniston has maintained a relatively squeaky clean image with the public, but lately it seems as if people are starting to catch on to her act.
http://www.timesoftheinternet.com/29200.html

And their rivalry does only go for Brad, but magazine covers as well.

Angelina Jolie Vs Jennifer Aniston: Magazine Cover Face-Off!
Brad Pitt is not the only thing Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston have been feuding over - the pair have also gone head-to-head over the years as rival covers girls.
http://www.entertainmentwise.com/news?id=46247

Of course Jennifer plans her PR excursions, all stars do, but this seems to be a little weird. Is the facade really cracking?

Jennifer Aniston worried about Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie
Jennifer Aniston was so worried about Brad Pitt toting Angelina Jolie around on the promo circuit, she had her agent fix her up with a Plan B boyfriend, say reports.
http://www.news.com.au/heraldsun/story/0,21985,24808007-5012974,00.html

Brad Still Worried About Angelina?

Now I'm starting to understand why the worlds view of the US is so messed up.
It doesn't have anything to do with the American government.
When the China Daily quotes the National Enquirer as a news source, we're all in trouble.

Pitt fears Jolie will 'crash and burn'
Brad Pitt is reportedly concerned for his partner Angelina Jolie's health and fears that she will 'crash and burn' due to stress.
According to the National Enquirer, Pitt is worried that Jolie is heading for 'a complete meltdown' after she broke down in tears at a recent press conference in London.
http://www.chinadaily.com.cn/showbiz/2008-12/04/content_7271368.htm

Although in this case, The National Enquirer isn't alone. We've heard for months that Brad is worried about Angelina's mental well being and health.
But is he really?
I mean it may be well founded, I've said before that she does seem to be spreading herself thin.
(Okay, that's not a skinny joke)
But short of Brad calling a press conference (which I don't see happening) how will we ever know what he really thinks?
