Brad Pitt Watch

Everyone seems to have an opinion about the last article I posted. You remember - the one where Angie admitted to trying every drug there ever was? A lot of my readers were pretty upset, feeling that the interview was fake.

Was the interview fake? I have no idea. I’d believe it was fake if it came from the STAR magazine, or the National Enquirer, but coming from ET Online leads me to believe that it’s not. They have a few more journalistic beliefs than the other gossip rags do. But I’m going to do something right now that I rarely do on this blog: I’m going to state my opinions and hope that it doesn’t make my readers disappear.

Do I think Angie did drugs? Absolutely. She had a difficult childhood and is, I believe, still dealing with issues that she has with her father. I can sympathize with her because my father isn’t my “dad” - he’s known as the sperm donor and that’s that. Also, who hasn’t tried drugs? I do know two people who have never tried drugs, but everyone else I know has at least tried pot. Brad went to college - I’ll GUARANTEE you that he’s at least tried that, if not more.

Do I care that Angie’s done drugs? No more than I care that Brad’s done drugs. The two are excellent parents - yes, I do have issues with the schooling thing, but other than that I find it admirable how they’re balancing their careers and their children. They give generously - both of their time AND their money - to a number of different charities. I personally love how much they try to care for children.

Brad and Angie have overcome a number of different types of adversity and can now be held up as pictures of how great celebrities CAN be. Heck, they should be held up as examples of how people can parent and work at the same time.

Some of my readers believe that I don’t love Brad and Angie - I do! I was, however, trained as a journalist, which means that I try to post all sides of the story to allow the readers to make their own decision as to what’s true, and what’s not. I will tell you MY opinion right now: I love Brad and Angie, but they’re only human. They DO make mistakes, and they HAVE made mistakes in the past, but who hasn’t? I believe that Brad and Angie will be two of those celebrities that last for a long time and that everyone remembers - like Elizabeth Taylor, or John Wayne, or Angie’s newest director, Clint Eastwood.

Here’s hoping you have a great weekend and remember to pop in - as new info and pictures becomes available, I’ll have it up!
