See, brad Pitt was never one I thought of as handsome. He was always pretty. I always liked Al Pacino…..Yeah, that’s the ticket.

The last and only time I spoke to Brad Pitt was at a party in Hollywood. He and my son, Michael, played poker together sometimes. This was some time ago when he was still married to Jen. He seemed to be a very thoughtful young man as we chatted about this and that. He told me what he was working on and things he hoped to do. When I asked about children, he said, “We’ll have to see about that,” with a sad smile. I’m glad he’s changed from an ambitious H’wood star into a man with ideas about the world instead. I think Angelina kicked him into high gear.

It is nice to see a high profile person doing some great humanitarian work in our own country.

Good for Brad. What has been so nice to see is that his humanitarian work seems as if it is genuine and not purely for “good press” or to appear as a good guy in the face of the bad guy image following his break up with Jennifer.

Brad has always been a good decent man, he still is - what’s unfortunate is that some women intent on being catty about a relationship they know nothing about, see that he’s finally with someone deserving of him.

What you view as acceptable from a man, GREATLY differs from what I view as acceptable from a man. I can’t speak for others, but he admitted (it’s on film) that he left Jennifer for Angelina. That yes, he did betray her trust in him during their relationship by way of cheating. Those are the facts. And you’re right, women don’t know about his relationship and that includes you. All any of us can judge him on is what he shows us, and to his credit and level of maturity, he was honest about his infedility and betrayal. So when woman are “catty” about his past relationship with Jennifer, what is being judged is what we know for fact, not speculation.

Brad NEVER admitted to “infidelity and betrayal”. When he was on Larry King last year to talk about Make it Right, he corrected Larry when he implied that Brad and Angie got together on M&MS. He said he AND Jen had to “decide if this was where they got off, BEFORE an attraction to Angie could be addressed”. Jen has recently said that the divorce was “amicable”, and previously said there was on “cheating”. And you or no one else know anything for fact. This is sooo 2005, please dont resurrect it.

Oh I disagree, let’s do resurrect it. You opened this door (I can only assume) based on some belief or perception that I was somehow insulting Brad, and you felt the need to defend him. I was merely pointing out a fact. I don’t know where you were living in 2005, but in America he was portrayed as a villain because of his affair with Angelina and his divorce from Jennifer. He was indeed perceived as the “bad boy” who broke sweet, kind “Rachel’s” heart. You’re on a computer right now, leave wOw for a minute. There are literally a million websites featuring articles where Angelina admits their relationship started on the set of the movie they were in together. And to that point a recent article in which she comments, “how many kids can say that movie is where Mommy and Daddy fell in love” Not good enough for you? Read Vogue’s article in which Jennifer finally comes clean on her true emotions about Brad and Angelina; and provides a time table for the break up of her marriage. Admitting that she had not knew, but knows for sure now that they had something going on while filming and as such, before they were divorced. I didn’t say Brad admitted to “infidelity and betrayal” I stated “he was honest about his infidelity and betrayal” There is a clear distinction I don’t believe you’ve grasped. You, I will assume, understands the definition of infidelity and betrayal. He was indeed honest about those acts and the affect they had on Jennifer and their marriage. They both however have been completely open and honest in stating that the biggest factor to the demise of their marriage was their difference in opinion as it relates to wanting children AND the introduction of Angelina in his life sealed the deal in that regard. Like you, there are celebrities that I defend and will speak up for at the drop of a dime. However in this instance your eagerness to come to Brad Pitt’s defense is basically silly. He wasn’t being attacked. I wasn’t being catty. Either you are an overly obsessed fan who delusionally believes she has a chance with him, or you are having a hyper sensitive day. It’s one or the other, but whatever it is you need to relax. It’s not worth the emotions. It’s his life not yours and trust me, I can say with 99% certainty you won’t be in it. Calm down.

Angry much? I suppose the websites you are referring to are either tabloids or the Perez hiltons and dlisted. Brad, in 2005 said on the Diane Sawyer Interview that the rumour that Angie played any part in his divorce was “a good story”. Please give me the links to the interviews where he was “honest about his infidelity and betrayal”. Being perceived as a “bad boy” does not make him one. You people need to stop this. It was not your marriage or subsequently your divorce.Your frothing and foaming proves my point. And as a fan of both Brad and Angie, i will continue to address the lies that are constantly written about them. And you telling someone to calm down is a joke. considering your response to my itty bitty post. Now my suggestion again…Let It Go. its four years and six kids later.

OK, I am done with this. But one more thing, that Vogue article that you are quoting, your “girl Jen” just called them a tabloid because they did he unthinkable and printed what she said. But that is typical Jen isn’t it, always place the blame on someone else for any unpleasantness in her life. Now have a nice time frothing and foaming, I have better things to do than to continue this nonsense.

Nice cat fights over Brad ladies…Great reading…I have alwasy thought Brad was one of Hollywood’s greatest actors. He has done so many different roles and I have yet to see a movie I did not like with Brad in it. I think its great that Brad and Angelina both use their money for the better of our world and they do it b/c they really care. In an interview with Angelina and Matty Lauer (I believe) he said that she donates 70% or something like that to charaties around the world and when Matt asked her about it she said “well I get paid an insane amount of money so why not give back”…I thought that was just an awesome answer. Brad I think is a great man, father and giver. When he talks about the houses he has built with his own money in New Orleans you can see in his eyes he truly cares about his work. He isnt in the news 24/7 talking about it which is great. Brad just seems like he is a great guy. Someone who all can get along with. Women, Men and Children. Whatever happened between Brad and Jenn, oh well, that is history. If he cheated, he cheated, if he didnt, he didnt. We wont know for sure as NONE of us were in the room with any of them…they can say whatever they like, only the flies and GOD knows the truth.

Even my old grandmother had the wisdom over situations like this. She lived in another century to be sure but it still holds up (I would think). She said : the left hand should not know what the right hand is giving. (be quiet about what you give) and : When the bedroom doors closes it is no one’s business what happens inside.
