Brad Pitt

YES THAT WAS BRAD PITT IN A TV COMMERCIAL!

We were VERY surprised when a commercial came on last night and it was Brad Pitt selling an Italian De’Longhi coffee machine. The ad was beautifully shot – showed Brad on his motorcycle out buying coffee beans and then at home enjoying his cappuccino. It had the expensive quality of a Brad Pitt movie and he looked great. We assume he was inspired by his pal George Clooney’s coffee ads- they didn’t do HIS career any harm.

BRAD PITT: WHICH KIDS DON’T WANT HIM AROUND?

Brad Pitt HAS to be wondering which of his six children dislike him enough to testify AGAINST him in his and Angelina’s custody court battle. Angelina is furious because the judge recently gave Brad shared custody of the kids. Court papers show that Angelina said THREE of the children were ready to testify AGAINST their father, but the judge didn’t allow it. We already know Maddox, 19, wants nothing to do with Brad (he was with Angelina long before Brad came along.) Pax is 17 and would probably side with Maddox- but who is the 3rd angry child? Zahara? (we remember Brad shopping with her to find a doll that looked like her) Shiloh? She and the twins Knox and Vivienne look a LOT like their dad. Brad just wants time with his kids so he can win them back. SOME will be more difficult than others…

BRAD PITT IS IN DIVORCE HELL

Wow. Angelina Jolie must REALLY despise Brad Pitt. She filed for divorce in 2016 and she has dragged him back into court numerous times- mostly to settle custody issues -so the divorce is still happening. Brad was just given joint custody of the kids, but Angelina plans to object and keep the court fight going strong. Is Brad paying for BOTH their expensive legal teams during this process? It’s sickening to imagine how much this SIX YEAR legal battle is costing! Brad has also put his personal life on hold – note that he has been careful NOT to be seen with any other women. He doesn’t want to agitate Angelina any more than she already is. Brad must look back at his simple and civilized divorce from Jennifer Aniston quite fondly these days…

BANKSY EXHIBITION IS BRIGHTENING UP MUNICH

Okay, we admit to being a maniacally devoted Banksy fan, so we were delighted to hear about his “Unauthorized Exhibition” called The Mystery of Banksy- A Genius Mind, in Munich, Germany. Over a hundred culturally significant items are on display- graffiti, photos, sculptures, video installations, and prints. Some of the artist’s philosophy is also included, such as his mantra “Remember, it’s always easier to get forgiveness than permission.” Banksy, the King of Street Art, has become one of the most expensive artists of our time, so we imagine security there is at an all-time high. Celebrities love Banksy – Brad Pitt has invested millions in his art.

BRAD PITT: IN NO HURRY TO ACT AGAIN

Brad Pitt obviously MEANT it when he said he would be doing fewer movies and concentrating on other things – like producing. He has a ton of movie and TV production projects, but only two movies in his future. One of them is Damien Chazelle’s Babylon, set in 1920’s Hollywood. Margot Robbie plays Clara Bow, and Tobey Maguire is set to play Irving Thalberg. Brad plays a character based on John Gilbert, who is trying to adjust as movies evolve from silent to sound. Brad obviously hasn’t started filming because his hair is long and pulled into a little pony tail. John Gilbert had slick Valentino hair. Above, Brad picked up some equipment in Beverly Hills and loaded it into his car.

LADY GAGA IS GETTING THAT KARDASHIAN LOOK

Hate to mention it, but it seems like ever since Lady Gaga came out with her cosmetic collection Haus Laboratories, she has started looking more and more like a Kardashian. Extremely glamorous and artificial. Hopefully she will ditch the fakery in the movie role she just landed opposite Brad Pitt. She’s costarring with Brad in a thriller called Bullet Train, and the premise is interesting. Five hired assassins find themselves on a bullet train from Tokyo to Morioka with only a few stops. Their missions are related to each other – who will make it off the train and what awaits them at the terminal? Remember, Lady Gaga got an Oscar nomination for her last movie A Star is Born.

BRAD PITT IS WALKING ON EGGSHELLS

Remember Alia Shawkat? She’s the 31 year old Arrested Development actress (also an artist) who was seen in the company of Brad Pitt a few times. Everyone assumed it was his first romance after divorcing Angelina Jolie and made a big deal out of it, but it turned out they were just friends. Brad was recently linked to a German model, Nicole Poturalski, 27, but apparently the relationship has already fizzled. We’re betting Brad has no intention of being linked to ANYONE until his custody battle with Angelina is settled (he wants 50-50 custody of the kids) – she’s been dragging it out, and the LAST thing he wants to do is make her angry.

ANGELINA JOLIE: WE ALREADY KNOW YOU’RE A GOOD MOTHER!

Looking good, Angelina Jolie is apparently NOT happy with the negative publicity she’s been getting for dragging out the finalization of her divorce from Brad Pitt. She doesn’t like the accusations- especially since they coincide with Brad getting a new girlfriend. To remind us of what a thoughtful mother she is, she took all six of her kids out to dinner at Nobu, where there’s always a pack of paparazzi. (Maddox drove up in his own truck.)

BRAD AND JEN AT THE EMMYS AGAIN

Certain people were thrilled to hear that both Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston were nominated for Emmys this year. It WAS a surpise when Brad was nominated for his guest appearance on SNL playing Dr Anthony Fauci. (It also fulfilled Fauci’s wish that Brad would play him) Brad is in a tough category – Outstanding Guest Actor in a Comedy Series. Among his competitors are Adam Driver and Eddie Murphy – both for SNL also. Jennifer Aniston got her first dramatic Emmy nomination for The Morning Show so she must be delighted. Keep in mind, Brad and Jen still have those die-hard fans hoping they will get back together. They won’t, although Brad and Jen ARE friends now- they still create excitement whenever they are in the same room …

BRAD PITT HAS THE RIGHT NUMBERS

Looks like those rumors that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are getting along better are TRUE. The houses they live in are quite close to each other in Los Feliz and the kids can walk over to Brad’s home. It appears that Brad has the security code to Angelina’s place and he paid his kids a visit today on one of his motorcycles. Brad and Angelina are certainly friendlier, but they haven’t agreed on everything when it comes to money, so their divorce is still pending.
