Um, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie got married this weekend. They went for the weekend when everyone was concentrating on the Emmys and VMAs. THEY ARE MARRIED. THEY GOT MARRIED IN FRANCE.
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were married Saturday in Chateau Miraval, France, says a spokesman for the couple.
Jolie and Pitt wed Saturday in a small chapel in a private ceremony attended by family and friends. In advance of the nondenominational civil ceremony, Pitt and Jolie also obtained a marriage license from a local California judge. The judge also conducted the ceremony in France.
The couple’s children took part in the wedding. Jolie walked the aisle with her eldest sons Maddox and Pax. Zahara and Vivienne threw petals. Shiloh and Knox served as ring bearers, the spokesman says.

The Associated Press confirmed the news on Twitter as well. This is not a drill. THIS IS HAPPENING. How did they manage to keep it so undercover?

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt had one of their rare date nights on Saturday in West Hollywood. They went out to Ago, an Italian joint owned by Robert DeNiro. I?m sure they didn?t go to the place because it?s owned by DeNiro, although Angelina does have some connection to him ? Robert DeNiro cast her in The Good Shepherd back in 2005 and he praised her a great deal during the promotion of the film. She filmed that movie when she was pregnant with Shiloh. Just a little Brangelina History for you. So many connections!
Anyway, I?m guessing they were able to have a date night now because they?ve been on the move a lot over the past few months, with Angelina promoting Maleficent stateside and overseas ? she just got back from Japan a few days ago! ? and co-hosting the Summit to End Sexual Violence in Conflict. Angelina gets to take a break, sort of, for the rest of the summer. And by that I mean Unbroken is in post-production, so she?s probably still editing it and doing sound, music, all of that. But that?s quiet studio work for the most part and I?m hoping the Jolie-Pitt family lays low for the rest of the summer. Then, in the fall and winter, the Oscar Campaign will happen. I wonder how it will go.
Meanwhile, I?ve been sort of wondering about Brad?s big (Oscar-bait?) film, Fury. Fury comes out this winter as well and it could conceivably be another strong, quiet Oscar contender. But then there?s Shia Labeouf. The Beef is probably going to mess with the film promotion. A lot. Bedhead and I were chatting about how it would go if The Beef is still acting crazy and Bedhead theorized that Brad will simply cut Shia out of the promotion altogether and put the focus on some of the other actors, like Logan Lerman, Scott Eastwood and Michael Pena. Wouldn?t be the worst idea.

SACK SLEEVES. That?s how Angelina Jolie?s need for sackiness has manifested itself today. A beautiful charcoal grey suit which would have fit her like a dream, save for the sack sleeves. Angelina is so funny. Anyway, these are some photos from Day 4 of the Global Summit to End Sexual Violence in Conflict, with Brad Pitt joining Jolie for the second day in a row. Superficial comment: I don?t like her hairstyle here. Too ?old? and mumsy. Also: I know some people will start yelling about how she looks exhausted. I imagine she IS exhausted. Plus, she?s been crying a lot during the summit. She probably cried off all of her makeup.
Yesterday, Angelina was invited to Clarence House where she met Camilla, the Duchess of Cornwall. They had a nice chat:
Camilla and the Oscar winning actress met at Clarence House to discuss their separate campaigns to aid rape victims. The two women have worked in recent years to highlight the issue of sexual violence and they were joined by Foreign Secretary William Hague.
The discussions covered the common ground between the women’s campaigns, with the pair sharing ideas. Camilla, 66, has visited rape crisis centres across the UK and spearheaded a scheme to provide victims with toiletries after undergoing forensic examinations. The Duchess of Cornwall came up with the idea of providing rape survivors with toiletries after speaking to women during a visit to a rape crisis centre in Derbyshire. Last year she said she hoped the project would help people feel better at a traumatic time in their lives. The two-year pilot scheme will see shower and bath products donated by firms collected into wash bags and given to victims.

On one side, I?m happy to see that at least one member of the royal family thought it would be a good idea to participate in the Global Summit. On the other side? how is this an issue that only ONE member of the royal family can get behind? It would have been great to see Prince Harry, William, Kate, Charles, or the York princesses get involved too. It?s not like being against rape is a controversial position.

Brad Pitt spent most of last Fall in England filming the World War II movie Fury. Personally, I?m kind of ?over? Hollywood?s insistence on making WWII films and glorifying that historical era, but just when I think that, I get caught up in a Band of Brothers marathon and I?m thinking, ?I wish they would make more stuff like this.? Seriously, Band of Brothers is amazing. One of the best miniseries ever.
Anyway, it really seemed like the production of Fury dragged on and on ? for the first time ever, Brad and Angelina were working on separate continents for months while she filmed Unbroken in Australia, and it seemed like that wasn?t supposed to be the plan. I kind of wondered if Fury was a mess, that we were going to get a repeat of the clusterwhoops that went down during World War Z?s production, and whether Pitt could weather another storm like that. So? I guess I?m glad to see that Fury seems to have come together reasonably well in post-production. Sony just revealed the first footage from Fury at the LA gaming expo E3.
It looks good. A character study set in WWII? Sure. The set up seems to be a bit like Saving Private Ryan, only they?re not searching for Private Ryan, they?re just fighting in the war. I guess that would make Brad the Tom Hanks character? And I?m fine with that. Brad does look good in fatigues and he?s a better actor than most people think. Will The Beef be the weak link? You never know. Also: LOVE Michael Pena.
Fury will be released on November 14th. Oscar contender?

Ten years ago, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were finishing the first phase of filming for Mr. & Mrs. Smith. They would spend the summer apart (as Angelina traveled around with Maddox, while Brad filmed Oceans 12 in Europe while Jennifer Aniston came along for the ride), then return to LA in the Fall of 2004 to complete filming on MAMS. That film changed everything, at least gossip-wise. It was also the biggest film of both of their careers at that point ? it made the most money, it debuted at #1, and it was a well-needed hit for both of them. But it also made them a couple.
Ten years later? they?re still together, they?ve got six kids, they?ve accumulated Oscars and other blockbuster films and they?ve managed to do it all without ever working (on screen) together ever again. Unless you count A Mighty Heart, which Brad produced and Angelina starred in. They were supposed to do Ridley Scott?s The Counselor together, but Angelina dropped out (probably because she was undergoing a double mastectomy and reconstructive surgery). Still, it?s unusual that they haven?t managed to find a project that they could do together in all this time. So, of course, Angelina wrote something for both of them.
Here is a film that instantly becomes the one every studio will want on their slate. Angelina Jolie is in early talks to star with Brad Pitt in an original script that she has written. It?s in the early talking stages and nothing is solidified, but I hear it?s happening. I don?t know a lot more at this point.
The film hasn?t locked distribution, but it will team Jolie and Pitt together for the first time since 2005?s Mr. And Mrs. Smith. That film displayed an intense chemistry onscreen, and this was before they became a couple offscreen. Jolie is working on post-production on Unbroken, the adaptation she directed of the Laura Hillenbrand book. Universal has set a December 25 release for the harrowing survival tale of Olympic track prodigy-turned-WWII POW Lou Zamperini. It?s expected to be right in the Oscar mix. Unbroken was a hotly contested directing project, and Jolie won the job with a presentation that wowed the studio, where Donna Langley also was very impressed with her directorial debut, In The Land Of Blood And Honey. She next stars in Disney?s Maleficent, which opens May 30 with Jolie playing the title character in the revisionist version of the fairy tale.
Will reveal more when I know it. Pitt is coming off 12 Years A Slave and most recently wrapped the David Ayer-directed WWII tank movie Fury, which QED produced and Sony is releasing. Stay tuned. She is repped by UTA and Media Talent Group Pitt by CAA and Brillstein Entertainment.

I need to know the plot. Is it a romance? A comedy? Doubtful. While I polish my Brangeloonie badges regularly, I don?t think it?s a Brangeloonie Catastrophe to suggest that Angelina probably can?t write comedies. So, it?s probably a drama, maybe something with some romance. Maybe it?s about war and refugees and?? God knows. But I am glad that they?re going to work together again. It?s sweet.

Over the past few weeks, there?s been a flurry of activity with Oscar-winner Brad Pitt and his future projects as a producer and actor. Allegedly, he?s circling a World War II-era romantic thriller, and he?s planning to produce a film about the hacker at the center of the Steubenville rape case. As a producer, Brad (to his credit) has always been attracted to smaller passion projects and unconventional stuff, and I?ve been looking forward to seeing how he parlays his Oscar win into more interesting producing and starring projects. And here?s the big one I was waiting for: Brad has signed on to play General Stanley McChrystal, the former commander of the Afghanistan war.
Brad Pitt is locking in yet another war flick on his list of films. Angelina Jolie’s handsome significant other is going to star as Gen. Stanley McChrystal, the former commanding general of international and U.S. forces in Afghanistan, in the upcoming movie The Operators, according to The Los Angeles Times.
The military drama will be written and directed by Australian director David Michod, who was behind the indie film Animal Kingdom a few ago, and will be based off of journalist Michael Hastings? 2012 book The Operators: The Wild and Terrifying Inside Story of America’s War in Afghanistan.
McChrystal made headlines when he was fired in 2010 after making some controversial remarks in a Rolling Stone profile by the late Michael Hastings, in which General McChrystal and his staff criticized administration officials, the president and his advisers.
President Barack Obama let his top Afghanistan war commander go after only a brief meeting in the Oval Office, according to a report by The New York Times, replacing McChrystal with his boss and mentor, Gen. David H. Petraeus, and sending a clear signal that the current war strategy will continue despite setbacks and growing public doubts.
[From E! News]
McChrystal?s Rolling Stone interview was and is a pinnacle of modern journalism and further evidence that great profiles and interviews are still possible in the American media. Rolling Stone?s Michael Hastings spent weeks with McChrystal in Afghanistan and Paris, trailing him for so long that McChrystal basically forgot he was there and let down his guard enough to say some fascinating, insulting things. From my memory, it?s not like Pres. Obama fired McChrystal outright ? when the RS piece came out, McChrystal knew he was out of a job and I think the conversation was basically ?should Obama let him resign or should he be fired for cause??
When most people think of McChrystal, they think of that interview but he was (and presumably is) a brilliant strategic mind and it will be fascinating to see Brad Pitt play him. The idea of this is kind of fascinating. This is a really good part for Brad.

At this point in his career, he can pick and choose what he wants to do and when he wants to do it, and Brad Pitt has signed on to star in ?The Operators.?
Written and directed by David Michod, the forthcoming project will also be produced by the ?Fight Club? stud and his Plan B partners Dede Gardner and Jeremy Kleiner, so it?s safe to say it?s going to be good.
?The Operators? will be based on the book by Michael Hastings, dealing with the high-profile military career of General Stanley McChrystal.
And of course, there will be plenty of backroom deals, political wrangling and inside moves to shed light on the unseen realm of wartime practices.

| Brad Pitt & Angelina are 'kinky' but 'both are insecure about their relationship' | Added 10 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Good God, Brad Pitt is looking really good these days. He stepped out last month looking ?refreshed? and then he was out and about on Friday in LA, looking like this. Only Brad Pitt could really pull off a ratty t-shirt and chinos and still look like Tom Ford personally dressed him. I really like his shades too. Brad was photographed as he left the Fahey/Klein Gallery, which apparently has some photography exhibitions. According to Us Weekly, Brad was checking out a Peter Lindbergh exhibit. Lindbergh has photographed Brad several times throughout his career, so there?s a chance Brad was looking at photos of himself.
After checking out the photos, Brad got a parking ticket. Allegedly. I mean, a cop left some kind of paper on Brad?s windshield, but the paper looks too flimsy to be a ticket. I kind of wonder if a cop left his digits for Brad. ?Hey, man, you look awesome! Give me a call XXX, Officer HotBody.?
Oh, and here?s just a little bit more from Star Magazine?s cover story last week:
?The biggest point of contention [between Brad and Angelina] has always been the kids and how to raise such an unruly bunch,? the insider said. ?And both of them are insecure about the relationship: she worries that he cheats, and he think she?ll cheat because she?s 12 years younger than he is.?
Despite the family?s issues, Jolie, 38, remains ?insanely devoted? to the Moneyball hunk.
?She fell for him the minute they met, and he loves the way she is into him,? the source told Star.
One area in which the Mr. & Mrs. Smith stars don?t have any problem is the bedroom, as an insider says ?they go at it like rabbits.?
?They are very kinky and will spontaneously hook up any chance they get,? the insider said. A woman who once cleaned the A-listers? jet told she was ?shocked? to find an arsenal of ?like, a dozen? sex toys ? including vibrators and butt plugs ? under the comforter.
?Brad and Angie are much more mellow than they used to be,? the insider concluded. ?Three or four years ago they were fighting all the time, but now they seem very comfortable together and put up with each other?s foibles. They?re perfect for each other.?
[From Radar]
Vibrators? I would think that their sex toy drawer (closet?) involves a lot of handcuffs, whips, chains, ball gags and maybe even a leather hood (for him) and a leather catsuit (her). And why the hell would they need sex toys IN THEIR JET?!? How kinky do they get on a plane? For goodness sake.

Brad Pitt spent many months in England last year filming Fury, a World War II movie with Shia Labeouf, Scott Eastwood and a gaggle of young dudes. The premise of the film sounded sort of interesting, but it also felt like Brad had sort of been there/done that with WWII films. He?s done several in that period of history, like the very memorable Inglorious Basterds. And now he might be returning to the era. Seriously! Why can?t Brad make a Vietnam-era movie?!
Brad Pitt is circling an untitled WWII romantic thriller which Steven Knight has scripted for Graham King?s GK Films. While it?s not a done deal yet and not yet set with a distributor, I?m hearing it?s serious and that a big director will be set with an eye toward starting production early next year.
Pitt produced and co-starred in Best Picture Oscar winner 12 Years A Slave, and he just finished another WWII battlefield film, the David Ayer-directed Fury, which Sony Pictures releases November 14. Pitt also worked the WWII terrain in the Quentin Tarantino-directed Inglourious Basterds. He also starred in and is prepping a sequel to World War Z. He?s repped by CAA and Brillstein.
Knight scripted Eastern Promises, and more recently the British series Peaky Blinders, the Helen Mirren-starrer The Hundred Foot Journey for DreamWorks, and he wrote and directed Locke with Tom Hardy. He?s repped by CAA and United Agents.
[From Deadline]
Well, the screenwriter has done some interesting projects and I could totally see Brad wanting to work with Knight. Plus, Brad and Angelina have close ties to Graham King and GK Films, so I could also see how he would sign on to do a film with King. I would like to know more about the story, because whenever I hear ?WWII romantic thriller,? my mind goes to Casablanca and The English Patient. While I love both of those films, I?m not sure I want to see Brad Pitt in that kind of ?duty-before-love? or ?making-love-while-the-world-falls-apart? movie. We?ll see! Perhaps Brad just doesn?t want his first post-Oscar film to be a zombie sequel, you know?
PS? You know who does WWII-period films really well and would be a great romantic lead along with Brad? Julianne Moore. Seriously! I bet they would love working with each other.

| Angelina Jolie & Brad Pitt want to get matching tattoos ahead of their wedding | Added 10 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

Several years ago, Angelina Jolie did a photoshoot with Vanity Fair where she wore something like hot pants, revealing her toned thighs. That was notable, but even more so because there seemed to be a never-before-seen tattoo on her right inner thigh. There were some conspiracies and long story short, the Brangeloonies believe that Angelina?s thigh tattoo reads ?Whiskey Bravo.? As in, W-B for William Bradley (Pitt). So, it would seem that Angelina already has Brad inked on her body in a significant (and charming) way. But Radar?s sources think Angelina and Brad are going to get more significant ink ahead of their wedding:
Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are getting matching tattoos for their upcoming wedding, Radar has learned. The superstar couple are deciding ?with what and where they will ink themselves to mark their long-awaited marriage,? a source told Radar.
?Brad really wants to do something special, and frankly, a little weird to mark the occasion, and they want to get the exact same design, in the exact same spot in their bodies.?
Pitt, 50, and Jolie, 38, share a love of body art, but according to the source, the actor?s fascination with tattoos ?took a big leap? once they finally got engaged in 2012.
?Brad is like a teenager again as he and Angelina decide on their matching tattoos,? the source said. ?He?s let Angelina help him pick out tatts in the past but this time it?s a real collaboration. Don?t expect it to be something that?s visible when they?re out day to day. They might just acknowledge to the press that they did it, but keep the actual content of the tattoos as their love secret.?
The 12 Years a Slave actor and producer reportedly has at least nine tattoos, including one of Oetzi the Ice Age caveman on his left arm and Jolie?s birth date in written in Khmer on his stomach.
Jolie has more than a dozen examples of body art, including the geographical coordinates of their six children and a tiger tattoo on her lower back.
Pitt has begun bringing tattoo magazines into his Los Angeles office, ?and leaving them in the lobby when he?s done with them, just so he can see if any designs capture visitors? imaginations,? the source said.
[From Radar]
What I?ve always liked about Angelina?s ink in particular is that she generally puts some thought into it and ? especially over the past eight years or so ? she?s gotten ink that is really significant to her, like her children?s birth coordinates or the ?M? tattoo (which is probably for her mom and/or Maddox) or the Whiskey Bravo tatt, which I still think is super-cute. Brad?s tattoos are blah? so I hope he doesn?t get to pick them. He should just let Angelina choose.
