How old is ?too old to wear a sheer t-shirt?? That?s my question. Brad is 51 years old and he loves this style of very, very thin t-shirts. At this point, it?s not about the camera flash making the shirts look more transparent. Brad just likes to show off his body. For comparison: George Clooney is 54, Tom Cruise is 53 and Johnny Depp is 52. I would be really grossed out if any of them attempted this look. But on Brad? I don?t know, I guess I?ve grown to accept it. Brad likes a breeze to graze his man-nips. Brad likes to air it out. Can you even imagine what Clooney would look like if he wandered around LA in a sheer t-shirt?
If you can tear your eyes away from Brad?s keeping-it-tight body, you might notice that he looks somewhat cleaned up in these photos. He had been growing out his goatee and keeping his hair a bit longer, but he recently got a haircut and a shave. I don?t know why, or if it?s for a movie or something. He?s in LAX in these photos and he?s already arrived in London. IMDB says that his next project is probably going to be War Machine, for Netflix. That?s the film that?s loosely based on General Stanley McChrystal?s work (and career demise) in Afghanistan. Angelina is also going to be heading to Cambodia at some point, so I tend to believe the whole family will probably be spending several months in Cambodia later this year or next year.
Brad and Angelina?s By the Sea comes out in November. I?m looking forward to the press around the film, but not the film itself. We?ll see.

I was sitting here, trying to figure out why Brad Pitt looks so hot in these photos. What is it? I think it?s because he?s actually wearing clothes that fit his still-lean frame, which means he doesn?t look like he?s dressed in Hobo Chic (which has been his style for too long). The all-black looks good on him. And what else? Is it the grey beard? Y?all know I enjoy some facial hair, so that might be what makes Brad so sexy in these photos. That beard looks nice on him. Mm. I could do without the hat though.
These pics are of Brad arriving at LAX to take a flight to France. It feels like we haven?t even seen Brad in months and months, but that?s mostly because Brad and Angelina were nowhere to be seen during the awards season. Which, incidentally, was one of the most boring awards seasons in recent memory. I?m not saying that Brangelina have to put in appearances to make it interesting, but if we don?t get Brangelina, you better give us Julia Roberts, George Clooney and some other major A-listers.
So, what?s Brad up to these days? It?s still believed that Brad will be playing the lead in Africa, the Angelina Jolie-directed bio-pic of Richard Leakey. Before then, Brad will likely start production on The Big Short, with Ryan Gosling, Christian Bale and Steve Carrel. Apparently, that?s supposed to start this month in New Orleans. The premise of the film is very interesting ? it?s about the handful of people who successfully predicted the market crash of 2008 and ended up shorting the market for a major profit. Brad has also signed on to a ?romantic thriller? set during World War II, which will be directed by Robert Zemeckis. God knows when that will start.

Here are some photos from Friday?s AFI luncheon celebrating the top 11 films of the year. One of the top AFI films? Unbroken! Another top AFI film? Selma! So Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie came out for the event, which was nice. That was a really fast trip they made to Rome and Vatican City, wasn?t it? When Angelina was asked about meeting Pope Francis earlier in the week, she told Deadline it was ?very cool.? Come on, Angie! Tell us more! Oh, and Angelina?s suit is YSL (or Saint Laurent, as I think we?re supposed to call it now).
Interesting enough, in some random European publication, Angelina actually confirmed an old rumor that I had completely forgotten about. Brad and Angelina did their French wedding at the end of August, but there was some rumor that they had actually done a small civil service in LA beforehand. Angelina confirmed that.
That was one well-kept secret! Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were officially husband and wife long before they tied the knot last summer, she recently revealed to Italian magazine Io Donna.
“Before the wedding in France with the kids, Brad and I were already married in California,” Jolie, 39, revealed to the mag, which accompanies the Saturday, Jan. 10 edition of the Corriere della Sera. “As Americans, we couldn’t marry legally in France.”
The Unbroken director — who was in Italy on Thursday to meet the Pope at the Vatican — explained how the no-fuss nuptials went down.
“One day I said to Brad, ‘Let’s meet up at 4:30 pm?’” she told Io Donna. “I called a justice of the peace and we signed the documents.” (As reported by Us Weekly, the couple obtained a marriage license from a California judge prior to exchanging vows at Chateau Miraval last August. The same judge also conducted their nondenominational civil ceremony.)
Before the couple of 10 years publicly confirmed their wedding news, a source told Us last March that Jolie claimed she was already married. “Every time I ask, she says she is already married,” the insider said to Us at the time. Still, the pair wanted to hold a formal ceremony for the sake of their six kids — Maddox, 13, Pax, 11, Zahara, 10, Shiloh, 8, and twins Vivienne and Knox, 6.
“It was very much a family affair,” their rep later told Us about the wedding, which included designated roles for each Jolie-Pitt kid. (Eldest sons Maddox and Pax walked their mom down the aisle, Shiloh and Knox were ring bearers, and Zahara and Vivienne “threw petals from the garden.”)
As for life as a wife? Jolie told Us Weekly last month: “It’s been an amazing year. I married my love. My son [Maddox] became a teenager. And, I got to bring [Unbroken] to the world.”
[From Us Weekly]
That?s so business-like! ?Let me email my fiance to see if he?d like to meet at 4:30 pm today so that we can get married and sign the paperwork.? I hope she at least carried a bouquet of flowers to her civil service. What did she wear? It was either a pansuit or a sack dress, I’m sure. We don?t get any more detail than that?
Oh, and looking through the photos of the AFI event? Brad and Angelina were very popular. They were mingling with everybody. Angelina got to spend some time with her good friend Clint Eastwood and Oprah wanted some photos with Brangelina too.

Here are some photos from last night?s LA premiere of Unbroken. No Angelina Jolie, obviously. She has chicken pox, so she was probably at home, fighting the urge to scratch and maybe eating some soup with Vivienne, Knox and Zahara. Do you think Zahara makes soup for her mom when La Jolie is feeling itchy? I do. So last night, in Angelina?s place, Brad Pitt walked the carpet with Maddox, Pax and Shiloh. They all wore suits and looked very snazzy. Brad?s parents were there too ? apparently, they were already coming in for the premiere (and perhaps to stay through Christmas?) and they just decided to attend the premiere in Angelina?s place.
As for how Angelina is doing, Brad told E! News, ?Her spirits are high. A little spotted and a little itchy, but her spirits are high.” God, I hope so. I hope she rallies. I hope she manages to make all of the h8rs crazy with how much she wins at life.
I?m also including some photos of the Unbroken stars at the premiere, including Jack O?Connell, Garrett Hedlund, Jai Courtney and Miyavi. Miyavi?s style is amazing! And Garrett brought his girlfriend Kirsten Dunst, who looks great in that Vivienne Westwood dress.

This is your final reminder before the weekend officially begins: Fury opens today in theaters. And Brad Pitt?s still hustling for it. I saw some box office predictions and most people think Fury will win the box office this weekend (finally dethroning Gone Girl, perhaps) but that it?s not going to be a major hit like World War Z.
In most of Brad?s interviews, he?s been offering up little morsels about his new marriage and all of that. Brad has started playing it more like Angelina ? he doesn?t complain when people ask him personal questions, but he usually only offers one sentence. When he spoke to USA Today at the DC premiere, he was asked about his non-existent honeymoon, considering he and Angelina flew to Malta to begin filming on By the Sea just a few days after their wedding. Brad said: ?Our dysfunctional honeymoon. Yeah, it was our choice. It’s been fun. It’s been challenging but really fun.” When asked about his wife as a director, Brad said: ?She’s good. She knows what she’s doing.”
Then Brad and the cast sat down with Good Morning America for a pre-taped interview in which Brad got most of the questions. Shia Labeouf is still trying so hard to impress Brad! It?s sort of cute. When asked about the wedding, Brad said: ?It was an amazing day and I think there’s an added security that comes with it.? Security? After ten years and six kids? That?s a little bit strange to me. But maybe Brad still thinks Angelina might pull a runner. Brad was also asked about his previous stance of not marrying until there was marriage equality in America. He side-stepped the question and just said: “That’s just a no-brainer to me. That’s the basis of our country. Equality for everyone.” I personally think that Brad and Angelina DID wait until there was marriage equality in half the states.

Brad Pitt did an absolutely gorgeous photo shoot for Details Magazine for the November issue, to promote Fury (out this Friday). The photos are by Mark Seliger ? you can see the full slideshow here. In some of the photos, Brad is giving me strong Garrett Hedlund vibes. I wonder if that?s why Angelina cast Hedlund in Unbroken? It?s Brad Pitt in nature, talking to trees and thinking in poetry. Brad Pitt on a motorcycle. Brad Pitt staring into the distance pensively. Deep thoughts by Brad Pitt. Details hasn?t released the full interview, but they did include some quotes in the slideshow:
On fatherhood: “I’ve discovered I don’t suck at being a dad.”
The paparazzi: “My soul was stolen by the camera so long ago, I don’t have to think about it anymore. One definition of freedom is the ability to follow your bliss without being watched, recorded, scrutinized.”
His comfort with the outdoors: “I grew up in the Ozarks?something resembling Mark Twain country. The woods, rivers, bluffs, lakes, and caves have all left an indelible mark on me. And I’m quite reverential when it comes to a tree. On my forearm, I had tattooed 94.9m (311.4ft)?the height of the largest sequoia.”
Moments of solitude: “My greatest moments of solitude…are found in the land, on the road…I try to carve out time for a solo ride in every country I travel to, from the Highlands of Scotland to the Atlas Mountains of Morocco to the belly of India. I haven’t even come close to fulfilling my list?yet. But in the traffic of L.A. with a helmet on, I’m just another a–hole on the road.”
Choosing roles: “I choose a role solely by how it speaks to me. And I sit in a fortunate seat where I can pull the trigger on the more difficult films. I was once talked into a film for ‘career maintenance.’ I have not made that mistake since.”
[From Details]
Eh, what do you want me to say? The quotes give me Matthew McConaughey vibes and I wonder if that?s the point. Everyone?s on the McConaughey train these days after MM turned his career around with Dallas Buyers Club and True Detective. Now it seems like more actors are staring off into the distance and waxing poetic about space and time and nature and the meaning of the cosmos. Dude.

Brad Pitt and the boys of Fury have really started making the promotional rounds in earnest. Shia Labeouf has been making TV appearances, trying to get his arrest out of the way so he can talk about Fury. Brad doesn?t have that problem ? Brad is the elder statesman of this particular war film, so it seems like all of the younger guys are going to spend a lot of time talking about how cool Brad is. Shia?s already started ? he appeared on Jimmy Kimmel Live last night and he told a story about fighting with Brad on the set and how much he loves Brad:
I kind of like Shia when he?s fan-girling Brad. I?ll admit that!
As for Brad, he gave an interview to Radio Times where he discussed his familiarity with weapons. Apparently, Brad inherited his grandfather?s gun when he was only a kid.
He’s set to star in Second World War movie, Fury, in which he stars as the commander of a Sherman tank crew – and Brad Pitt reveals he’s always had a respect for weaponry. The 50-year-old told Radio Times magazine in a recent interview that he’s grown up with guns.
‘There’s a rite of passage where I grew up inheriting your ancestors’ weapons,’ he told the publication. ‘My brother got my dad’s. I got my grandfather’s shotgun when I was in kindergarten.’
In fact, so much so was the tradition, that Pitt owned his first air gun when he was in nursery, received his shotgun when he was six and had fired a handgun by the time he was eight. He told the magazine: ‘The positive is that my father instilled in me a profound and deep respect for the weapon.’
Brad remarked that he brought his family to the set of his latest movie, which was shot over 12 weeks in the fields of Oxfordshire and at Bovingdon Airfield in Hertfordshire. He told the magazine: ‘Maddox knows so much about tanks that when we first started on the movie, I was asking him for information.’
[From The Daily Mail]
Eh, I grew up in the South and I went to school with a lot of boys like this, boys who went out hunting with their daddies from a very young age. There is a ?gun culture? in rural areas, not just in the South and Midwest, but all over America. I tend to believe the majority of gun owners are like Brad describes ? weapons are passed down from generations, and there?s a focus on responsible gun ownership from a young age. Of course, there are notable and horrible exceptions to that.
Brad also gave an interview to The Telegraph about being a ?tourist? in the war experience and all of that ? go here to read.

Brad Pitt covers the new issue of Psychologies, a UK magazine, to promote Fury. Thus far, the Fury promotion has been mostly UK-based (Brad covers the new issue of British GQ too), but I?m hoping that as we get closer to Fury?s release date, Brad will be doing some American press. As for the interview? Brad doesn?t say anything juicy, but I do like these quotes a lot. He just sounds like he adores his kids and that family is his priority.
It’s an especially good time to be Brad Pitt. The newlywed, 50, opens up about his children with wife Angelina Jolie in the November issue of the U.K.’s Psychologies magazine. Regarding what he’s learned from raising Maddox, 13, Pax, 10, Zahara, 9, Shiloh, 8, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 6, proud papa Pitt, 50, says, “You learn to value the basic beauty of family, of watching your children grow and evolve. It’s the most beautiful thing you can experience.”
“I feel like the richest man alive since I’ve become a father,” Pitt adds.
How else has the Fury star’s life changed since becoming a parent? “Being a father has changed me on so many levels and made me more generous and alive. I see my children as an essential part of my life, and it means so much to be able to educate them and help them make their way in the world as they grow up,” the twice-wed actor explains. “I love being a father and all the responsibilities that entails.”
As one might imagine, Pitt is a protective parent. “I worry about them all the time,” he says of his kids. “That’s the emotional bond and responsibility that sweeps over you when you have a family to look after. I care about them more than I care about myself, which I think is the real definition of love. You see past yourself and become more generous and giving, and wanting only the best for your family.”
[From E! News]
I believe him. Brad?s whole life changed when he got with Angelina and became a dad to Maddox and then Zahara. And then they kept on rolling. I?m not sure if Angelina would have ended up having so many kids if she wasn?t with a partner who wanted a big family and was prepared to be a good dad to all of them. Nice.

Wow! This is a great cover, right? I generally like Brad and I?ve grown to really respect him, but I usually don?t feel like ?OMG Brad Pitt UNF? towards him. But I?m feeling some hotness pangs towards him with this GQ UK cover and shoot. Lovely. Brad covers British GQ because he?s promoting Fury. Most of his quotes about Fury and his career, but he does give away a little bit about his marriage. I guess this interview was done just after the wedding? Some highlights:
On marriage: “I wouldn’t say [marriage is] just a title. There’s more to it than that.”
On what he thinks his friend George Clooney meant when he recently called Pitt “unreachable”: “Well, you know, George is extremely accessible. He’s one of our best representatives. He’s funny as sh-t. He’s a joy to be around. I guess maybe I’m more of a miserable bastard. [laughs]. I’m a bit of a loner you know? I’m more quiet by nature. And coming from, you know, hillbilly country, I’m probably more reserved.”
On choosing work: “I’m actually very snobbish about directors. I have to say no all the time. ‘No’ is the most powerful word in our business. You’ve got to protect yourself? To leave home, it’s got to be worth leaving. It’s got to be worth it.”
On Shia Labeouf and his commitment to acting: “Oh, I love this boy. He’s one of the best actors I’ve ever seen. He’s full-on commitment, man. He’s living it like no one else, let me tell you. I’ve been fortunate to work with a lot of great actors. He’s one of the best I’ve seen.”
On purposefully slowing down his acting career: “I’ve been slowing down for a while now. And slowly transitioning to other things. And, truthfully, I do want to spend more time with my kids before they’re grown up and gone.”
On considering a TV role: “They’re doing great stuff on television. And we [Plan B] have a few television ideas ourselves. So yes, I’d love to do one.”
On not being on Twitter: “Listen, I see a benefit in it. You could, you know, combat the misconceptions of the misquotes immediately. And if I’d have had that in my younger days, I’d have used it? because I felt quite used, and completely misunderstood, and misread, and not given the benefit of the doubt. You know, I felt that a lot in my first years. I would have brought some logic to the table, and brought it immediately. But now, at this point, I don’t want to bother with it.”
On whether he’s happy: “I’ve always believed happiness is overrated, you know? It’s those difficult times that inform the next wonderful time, and it’s a series of trade-offs, of events, of wins and losses.”
[From GQ UK]
The thing about it is? Clooney also comes from hillbilly country, doesn?t he? George grew up in Kentucky and Brad grew up in Missouri. Both men have Southern/midwestern sensibilities which manifest in different ways. And yeah, Brad probably has no interest in participating in George?s ?Chairman of the Board? shtick in real life. But make no mistake ? Brad is a significant power player in his own right. I tend to think that these days, Brad is one of the most powerful actor-producers in Hollywood.
As for the Shia stuff? that?s a good example of Brad?s power. Brad could have singlehandedly crippled Shia?s career by badmouthing Shia in the interview. But Brad stands up for him, and now Shia will probably get to still have a career. Brad also told a long-winded story about how he and Shia got pissed off at Scott Eastwood for dipping (chewing tobacco) while filming. The moral of Brad?s story is that Shia and Brad were just on edge and Scott was actually doing something that was in the script.

From what (little) I know of Angelina Jolie?s By the Sea script, it?s just a flat-out drama. Like, it?s dialogue heavy and it?s just some artsy, sexy stuff that can be filmed pretty quickly and with very little CGI. Still, the British gossips would have us believe that Angelina and Brad Pitt are ?in training? for the film. Is it FOR the film or are they merely doing a joint couple-activity for fun? I don?t know. But sources say they?re taking Krav Maga lessons.
They met on the set of high octane flick Mr & Mrs Smith, where they played married secret assassins. And the lives of newlywed couple Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are now imitating their art as they have taken up training in a form of military-style unarmed combat, together.
The couple – who married in France last month – have been practicing a form of Israeli self defence known as Krav Maga to help them prepare for their upcoming movie By The Sea. Brad, 50, has only recently adopted the discipline, which the couple now practise several days a week, while wife Angelina started learning self defence to train for her Tomb Raider role in 2001.
A source told the Daily Mirror newspaper: ‘Angelina previously learnt Krav Maga when she was doing Tomb Raider and loved it.’
The A-list acting couple, who have six children together, Maddox, 13, Pax, 11, nine-year-old Zahara, eight-year-old Shiloh and six-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne are impressed with the fitness properties of the combat classes, which are thought to burn hundreds of calories each time. Fight Club actor Brad is believed to have lost more than 10 pounds after participating in the intense military-style exercise classes for just three weeks and is even letting his kids join in the fun.
‘The whole family are learning the moves,’ the source continued. ‘Even the little ones are doing modified kids’ moves but Brad has been doing it for 45 minutes a day and has dramatically lost weight and beefed up his muscles for the film.’
[From The Daily Mail]
See, I think they?re just saying the Krav Maga lessons are for fun, or for a workout, not that Krav Maga will be used in the film. I used to be really interested in Krav Maga because it seemed like a smart, efficient self-defense system that borrowed some good ideas from other methods. But I?ve read some articles about how Krav Maga isn?t all that and all the cool kids do Muay Thai or Taekwondo because those are the better systems overall. I?ve also heard (but never verified) that Krav Maga shouldn?t be a ?fun class? for kids, that it?s too dangerous. But then every child in my town started taking Krav Maga classes, so I don?t know. But if the Jolie-Pitt children really are taking Krav Maga… watch out. Looks like there really IS a Jolie-Pitt Child Army.
