Lepaparazzi News Update: Jolie & Pitt Bowl Over Arcade Boss With Afternoon Visit

Angelina Jolie and Brad PittAngelina Jolie and Brad Pitt took over a French bowling alley on Monday so their kids could hit pins with pal Marianne Pearl's son. Jolie plays Pearl in new movie A Mighty Heart, which Pitt produced, and the two families have become close since working together on the film, which follows the kidnap and murder of Pearl's journalist husband Daniel.

And when Marianne took up an invitation to join Pitt, Jolie and their four kids on a brief vacation in her native France, the Hollywood couple used their star power to close the Le Palace Vert arcade for a quiet bowl.

Owner Patrick Bernard tells People magazine he was particularly impressed with Pitt's parenting skills: "At one point... because the children don't have the strength to always get the ball down the lane, it sometimes stops. Brad thought he'd go down the lane to push it along. He slipped and fell on his back."

Pitt then showed off his air hockey skills. Bernard adds, "He was particularly good at it."

The owner still can't believe Pitt and Jolie chose to host their bowling party at his place: "We're certainly the smallest bowling in France, so we're still having trouble realizing we spent Monday afternoon with the most famous couple in the world."

Jolie says, "I'm cautious about raising them too much in a country where other say, 'Oh, I saw your parent's movie.' I grew up around that myself, and we want to make sure that our own children are somewhat removed from it.."

The Tomb Raider star and Pitt are adoptive parents to Cambodian Maddox, five; Vietnamese Pax Thien, three; Ethiopian Zahara Marley, two; and are biological parents to 15-month-old Shiloh.

Lepaparazzi News Update: Billy Bob Thornton: 'Jolie Would Still Be Sexy If She Was Ugly'

Angelina Jolie is a rare catch, according to her ex-husband Billy Bob Thornton - because she's good looking and oozes sex appeal. The movie star insists good looks and sensuality rarely go together in a woman and he's often dated less attractive girls who "drip sex."

Thornton says, "I've always been able to separate sex appeal from looks... I've been with girls who are models or whatever and the sex was not that great. Then I've been with girls and my buddies say, 'What do you see in her?' But there's an animal attraction to some people that has nothing to do with looks. Angelina is a very sexual person, an amazing, sexy person who happens to be beautiful. But she could look any other way and still have the same sex appeal."

Celebrity News: Angelina Jolie Gives $50 As Tooth Fairy

Angelina Jolie gives her son Maddox $50 every time he loses a tooth - and allows him spend it on whatever he wants.

The actress, 32, recently rewarded adopted child Maddox with $100 after two of his front teeth fell out - and Jolie vows to give as generously to her other children Pax, three, Zahara, two, and one-year-old Shiloh.

A source tells British newspaper Daily Star, "Angelina plays the tooth fairy and gives Maddox a bit more than the usual $5 per tooth, and he can spend it on anything he wants to.

Celebrity News: Angelina Jolie' Solo Film Career

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt won't make another movie together because there would be nobody to look after their children.

The couple - who met on the set of 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith' - are determined to raise their four kids, Maddox, six, Pax, three, Zahara, two, and 16-month-old Shiloh, themselves.

The devoted parents have made a pact that only one of them works while the other cares for the children.

Angelina said: "We won't work together again, because who would be there to watch the children if we did?!"

The Oscar-winning actress - who has admitted to sometimes getting help with the childcare - says she and Bard want to be as hands-on as possible because she doesn't trust other people easily.

She said: "I think that every parent worries that something will happen to their child. It's not that I distrust everyone, it's just that I don't walk around with complete faith, openness and trust."

Despite having four young children, Brad recently revealed the couple would like to add to their brood.

When asked if they wanted a fifth child, Brad replied: "Yeah, we're ready."

Angelina Jolie's Beauty Secrets

Image: people.com

Angelina Jolie has started rubbing caviar into her skin to stay looking young.

The 32-year-old actress, who is dating Brad Pitt, is said to be worried the veins in her arms, hands and forehead have become more visible because of the amount of weight she has lost in recent months.

To combat the problem, Angelina has started having a special £200-a-time beauty treatment which uses a cream made from the eggs of the Baerii sturgeon - which is reared on farms in the South of France to produce the culinary delicacy of fish eggs.

The treatment, which can last up to three hours, involves the actress being wrapped up in tight bandages so her body sweats out toxins before she is slathered in the youth-restoring body cream - which claims to fight "slackened skin and loss of firmness".

The high oil and protein content of the sturgeon eggs is believed to be very good for the skin.

As well as the full body treatments, Angelina is also having lengthy facials using caviar-based moisturisers made by cosmetic company La Prairie.

The 'Beowulf' star is not the only celebrity who has discovered the skin benefits of caviar.

Lockin lips with Brad and Angelina

Last night, I watched Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie make out.

Not in my dreams, mind you. I was at the live VH1 telecast of the Critics' Choice Awards from the Santa Monica Civic Auditorium.

The Dolce & Gabbana-garbed Jolie and her scruffy-sexy man were two of the last celebs to arrive, so they had to wait in the back for a commercial break to take their seats.
Comment on this Article

So, what did they do while they waited? The lovebirds whispered, laughed and then, like a couple of teenagers, they began kissing. And I'm not talking about a sweet peck or two between parents. It was a full-on make-out session!

As one of my coworkers said, "I want to make out with them!"

Another thing you didn't see? Whenever the cameras stopped rolling for a commercial break, the pair's table was immediately swarmed with boldfaced names and Industry executives.

Queen Latifah was one of the first to stop by to say hello. I also caught Hairspray director Adam Shankman chatting them up, as did Julian Schnabel, director of The Diving Bell and the Butterfly.

Techno dunce Angelina Jolie

Angelina Jolie is a technophobe.

The 'A Mighty Heart' actress confessed she is completely hopeless with technology and she often has to ask partner Brad Pitt for help turning on their computer.

Speaking at an event to celebrate her being presented with the Outstanding Performance of the Year Award at the Santa Barbara International Film Festival on Saturday (02.02.08), Angelina said: "As Brad knows, I don't even really know how to turn on a computer!"

Angelina also revealed she was initially hesitant about starring in 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith', but is now glad she took the role because that was where she met Brad.

She said: "Obviously I'm very glad I did it now - it completely changed my life!"

When the 32-year-old actress was shown a clip of her and Brad's famous tango scene from the 2005 film and asked who the better dancer was, she laughed: "I think we're about equal - equally bad that is!"

Angelina - who failed to dispel pregnancy rumours by wearing another loose top at the festival - admitted her main passion in life is motherhood, despite being a keen humanitarian and busy actress.

Brad Pitts Twin Joy

Brad Pitt has confirmed to friends lover Angelina Jolie is expecting twins.

The 'Fight Club' star - who already has three adopted children, Maddox, six, Pax, four, and Zahara, three, as well as 21-month-old daughter Shiloh with the actress - has told pals they will soon be adding two more to their brood.

A friend is quoted on the Daily Mail website as saying: "Brad's been very quiet about this pregnancy so far but this was the weekend he decided to let the cat out of the bag. He's telling everybody close to him, because he is having to change his work schedule to get ready for the birth.
Comment on this Article

"They're having twins, Angelina is healthy, and he's thrilled that he's going to be a father once again.

"They didn't exactly plan this pregnancy, but they wanted more children and Brad says Angelina was very willing to have them herself."

Brad - who is cutting back on filming commitments to help look after his ever-expanding family - is also keen for Angelina to have the twins in their native US, unlike Shiloh's birth in Namibia in May 2011.

The friend added: "They want to have these children in Los Angeles or New Orleans. I don't think Brad wants to isolate himself and the family again like he did when Shiloh was born."

Report - Jolie & Pitt's Twins Will Be Fraternal

Report - Jolie & Pitt's Twins Will Be Fraternal.... Angelina Jolie will give birth to twins in her late mother's native France, if the latest U.S. news reports are to be believed.

Celebrity magazine In Touch reports the actress and partner Brad Pitt are expecting a boy and a girl.

The couple has yet to confirm the baby news, even though Jolie's ever-growing belly suggests she's with child, and their publicist is offering a firm "no comment" on the latest reports.

According to In Touch, Jolie was overheard cooing about her unborn babies on the set of Pitt's new movie, Tree Of Life, in Texas, telling one pal the little ones are "kicking and moving".

A source tells the publication Jolie and Pitt were overjoyed when they heard they'd be having twins after a visit to their obstetrician/gynaecologist Dr.

Jason Rothbart last week (14Mar08).

The insider says, "Because she took fertility treatments to help her ovulate, her babies are fraternal. They're ecstatic. She can't wait."

Angelina Jolie's feast

Angelina Jolie has been gorging on calorific treats throughout her pregnancy.

The Oscar-winning beauty - who is rumoured to be expecting twins with partner Brad Pitt - was allegedly seen filling up on high-fat foods during a meal out at Hollywood restaurant Marino.

A source told Britain's Star magazine: "She ate everything in sight. Penne arrabiata and two starters, as well as several bread rolls. She also tucked into profiteroles for dessert - which are her favourite - and took an apple pie to go."

In the early stages of her pregnancy, Angelina reportedly craved mustard-smothered onion rings and cinnamon chilli chocolates.

A source close to the actress said: "Angelina's been eating onion rings with mustard and a box of chocolates in the same sitting! She loves these bars that are dark chocolate and cinnamon mixed with Mexican chillies for an added kick."

Angelina - who already has three adopted children, Maddox, Pax, and Zahara, as well as a biological daughter Shiloh with Brad - has also been gorging on treats made by her kids.

The source added: "Angelina's been splurging on cupcakes that Maddox and Zahara have been making."

Angelina Jolie's surprise love

Angelina Jolie never expected to fall for Brad Pitt.

The 32-year-old actress - who is currently pregnant with twins - didn't want to date another actor following her divorces from Billy Bob Thornton and Jonny Lee Miller, but couldn't resist Brad when they starred in hit 2005 movie 'Mr. and Mrs. Smith'.


She said: "After my last divorce, I said I was absolutely going to marry somebody in another field, an aid worker or something. Then I met Brad, everything I wasn't looking for, but the best man, the best father I could possibly wish for, you know?

"I don't see him as an actor. I see him very much as a dad, as somebody who loves travel and architecture more than being in movies."

Angelina also revealed although Brad, 44, only got involved in charity work when he met her, he always showed an interest in humanitarian causes.

She added to Vanity Fair magazine: "Brad's passion for international affairs was actually one of the things that brought us together. Though he wasn't as publicly active, I found him to be very aware of the world, very curious, very compassionate.

"In his private way, he had been doing a lot. When we met, we realised our common goals were that we both wanted to be involved in the world and see what we could do. When it comes to common goals - orphans, orphans' rights, children - we support each other. It brings us together and makes our relationship work."


Meanwhile, it has been claimed two US magazines are involved in a bidding war for the first photographs of the couple's twins.

People magazine and OK! magazine are both determined to get their hands on the exclusive pictures and are said to be willing to splash out a staggering $15 million to secure the rights.

Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie vs. the box office

It had to happen: Angelina Jolie and Jennifer Aniston will finally get to duke it out.

At the box office.

Both actresses have big movies opening on Oct. 24: Angelina's "Changeling" and Jennifer's "He's Just Not That Into You."

But "Into You" also stars other appealing actors such as Scarlett Johansson, Ginnifer Goodwin, Drew Barrymore, her boyfriend Justin Long, Jennifer Connelly and Ben Affleck. Aniston plays Affleck's love interest in the adaptation of the bestselling relationship book that's also become part of the modern cultural vernacular. Click here to see the trailer on the author's website.

Director Clint Eastwood's period mystery, "Changeling," also stars John Malkovich and Amy Ryan, and already created Oscar buzz for Jolie at the Cannes Film Festival.

My bet? Jennifer will win the box-office battle and Angelina may end up with a little gold Oscar statue.

And the other thing to consider is that movie opening dates often change. Plus "Changeling" is not opening wide until Oct 31.

What do you think? Which movie - and actress - would you rather see and why?

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie: Quiet French village hit by Brangelina media circus

CORRENS, France (Reuters) - The new game in Correns, a village in Provence suddenly hit by media frenzy since Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie moved into a nearby villa, is to make up stories about the couple for the paparazzi.

You will be treated to a free glass of pastis if you can get a particularly silly story published, mischievous residents said, declining to be named.

Pitt and Jolie, who is pregnant with twins, are staying at the sprawling Miraval domain, near Correns, where they enjoy nearly 1,000 acres of woods and vineyards, a gorgeous 17th-century villa, a swimming pool and helicopter pad.

News of their arrival with their four children has drawn paparazzi from all over the world who now engage in a daily game of cat-and-mouse with security guards under strict instructions to protect the family's privacy.

"They came here to find some peace, and instead there are paparazzi at the gate day and night. It's really unbearable. There are always five or six motorbikes and cars ready to launch into a chase," said Christine, a sympathetic local winemaker.

Rumor has it in the village that decoy limousines with black-tinted windows exit the property every so often to lure the photographers away, while the couple known as "Brangelina" travel only by helicopter.

For residents of Correns, the horde of reporters and other visitors keen to catch sight of the A-list Hollywood stars has provided entertainment -- and some extra business.

"It's bringing business because people are a little curious. For now there's a lot of hype, it's going to be good for the next few weeks and after that we'll see," said Onno Stijl, a chef at the Auberge du Parc hotel and restaurant.

Less impressed are the local hunting enthusiasts, who say the Miraval domain is prime territory for boar and who fear tense encounters with the Pitt-Jolie security guards when the season starts on August 15.

"We have the proper authorizations and everything," said a local hunter, pre-empting any possible objection to the annual shooting fest in the Miraval woods.

Billy Bob Thornton Denies Mocking Angelina Jolie

He didn't criticize her relationship with Brad, says rep...


Billy Bob Thornton has denied mocking his ex-wife Angelina Jolie about her relationship with current partner Brad Pitt.

The actor/singer was quoted at the press launch for his new record as saying, "[Angelina] is just going through a high school phase. You know dating the quarterback of the football team with Brad Pitt over there. She'll be waking up from that dream in no time."

He is then supposed to have added, "Who knows if I'll be there when she's ready to come to her senses though."

It all sounds very tongue-in-cheek, however, Billy Bob's rep denies that his client said any of the above.

AskMen – where the quotes first appeared – have since removed the story from their website.

Angelina Jolie Staying "Home With the Kids" Until Twins Are Born

In a new interview with USA Today, Angelina Jolie wouldn't reveal her due date (Kung Fu Panda co-star Dustin Hoffman said it's August).

But she did share how she and Brad Pitt are prepping for their twins.

"We've made a point to, both of us, not be working," she says. "So we'll be home together with the kids.

"At the same time we're expecting two, we have four, so my focus now is on the four we have," she says of daughter Shiloh, 2; Maddox, 6; Pax, 4; Zahara, 3.

"And these are some big times for them, big moments in their lives," she adds. "So every day is just about making sure that their schooling is going right and their manners are intact and we're disciplining properly and we're spending enough time with them individually, so they seem special. That's a lot of balance when you have a lot of children."

Pitt does his part as well.

"I'm very lucky — I'm with a man who makes me feel very sexy pregnant and loves children," Jolie says. "In the last few months it's hard for me to pick up the other kids, so he's there to help lift them up to me and things like that.

"He's an extremely hands-on dad with all the kids and really, really supportive," she adds. "Any woman knows that when you're pregnant, if you have a partner who is embracing it with you and excited with you, it makes all the difference. I'm very lucky to have him."

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt keeping New Orleans Mansion

Contrary to online rumors, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have not sold their French Quarter mansion, The Times-Picayune reports.

“This rumor going around that they’ve sold or are selling their house in New Orleans is not true,” Trevor Neilson of the Jolie-Pitt Foundation tells the newspaper.

Adds Neilson: “It’s just made up, as are a lot of things that are said about them.”

The Jolie-Pitt clan settled in New Orleans in 2011, when Brad filmed The Curious Case of Benjamin Button in the Big Easy.

The architecture-loving Pitt is involved in the city’s Make It Right foundation, which is working to construct some 150 eco-friendly homes in New Orleans’ Lower 9th Ward.

Pitt and Jolie, who’s pregnant with twins, are currently living at a private chateau in France with their four kids.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt make $1m donation to Iraqi children

The Hollywood couple made the donation via their charity, the Jolie-Pitt Foundation.

The money will go to the Education Partnership for Children of Conflict and will help 8,000 children who have lost parents, homes or the opportunity to go to school.

Jolie is known for her charity work and is a goodwill ambassador for the UN's Refugee Agency. She has visited Iraq twice in the past year.

The actress said in a statement: "These education support programmes for children of conflict are the best way to help them heal."

The couple hope other Hollywood celebrities will follow their lead and donate a portion of their earnings.

"We hope to encourage others to give to these great organisations," said Pitt.

During her last trip to Iraq in February, Jolie spoke of the urgent need for aid in the war-torn region.

"There are over two million displaced people and there never seems to be a real coherent plan to help them. There's lots of goodwill and lots of discussion but there seems to be a lot of talk at the moment and a lot of pieces that need to be put together," she said.

The 32-year-old Tomb Raider star is currently in France awaiting the birth of twins.

Their arrival will take the couple's brood to six - they are already parents to Maddox, six, Pax, four, Zahara, three, and Shiloh, two.

Earlier this month it was reported that Jolie had given birth, sparking a worldwide media frenzy, but the story turned out to be a hoax.
