The internet is abuzz today with the comments Brad made during the brief interview with a reporter from the Khaleej Times.
Sitting at a bar in the Roosevelt Hotel in Hollywood is a blond, good-looking man with well-chiselled features on an instantly recognisable face.
“You know what it’s like to be on the cover of every magazine… having your personal life dissected with all the lies, all the rubbish?” he asks me. He takes a swig from a bottle of beer and says: “It’s hell. Certainly, pick on me - but why pick on Angelina? That’s so low. She’s such an amazing woman - like Supergirl, in every way.”
I had just happened upon Brad Pitt while walking through the hotel and went over to say hello. He was by himself, waiting for friends, and said: “I’m sorry if I seem to be taking my frustration out on you.”
“So, how are things going with you and Angelina, anyway?” I ask. He smiles and replies: “Oh sure, like I’m going to talk to you about that.”
So sweet…but what no one’s reporting is the rest of the story that was published. Here’s a brief excerpt.
The first time I met Jolie was in 2001 at a reception for her movie Lara Croft: Tomb Raider. Seeming dark and enigmatic, she flirted openly with the male reporters. I couldn’t help but wonder whether certain rumours about her were true. For instance, there was a lot of speculation at the time that she and her brother, James Haven, were in an incestuous relationship.
Why? Because when she won her Golden Globe in 2000 for Girl, Interrupted, she actually made out with him backstage, her arms around his neck, her lips all over his. It was pretty creepy. When I tackled her, she simply asked with an arched eyebrow: “Do I look like the kind of woman who would have sex with her own brother?”
I answered: “Well, I don’t know what that kind of woman looks like.”
“Exactly,” she countered. Then, as she drifted off, she looked over her shoulder and winked at me. Confirmation or denial? I wasn’t sure. One thing was certain, though: I’d never had a stranger moment with a celebrity.
And more…
But then came the problems. “It’s been downhill from there for them,” said one of the couple’s intimates. “It was too much too soon, especially for Brad. They’re bickering an awful lot these days. They’re like an old married couple with kids - and they never even got married.”
According to Jim Cruse, who has known the actor for many years: “Brad always said he wanted a family. But you should be careful what you ask for. He got four kids in two years, all under the age of six. It’s no picnic.
