Brad Pitt Celebrity IOU HGTV Twins

HGTV’ S DREW AND JONATHAN SCOTT GOT LUCKY WHEN BRAD PITT SAID YES

As much as we love the dependable HGTV, we are not particularly fond of Drew and Jonathan Scott– the twins are just a tad too egotistical and confident for our taste. But they got REALLY LUCKY when Brad Pitt agreed to appear on their new show Celebrity IOU. Besides Angelina, who doesn’t love Brad Pitt? And the fact that Brad remodeled his longtime makeup artist’s modest garage home into a comfy guesthouse just makes you love him more. A longtime fan of architecture, Brad designed the interior himself and we are eager to see his taste. Of course, we’re HOPING for an absence of those everpresent candles, bric-a-brac, and throws so dear to HGTV… but that might be too much to ask of the twins.

Angelina Jolie Brad Pitt Jennifer Aniston

WAKE UP! JENNIFER AND BRAD ARE NOT GETTING BACK TOGETHER!

Okay, let’s get this Brad Pitt/Jennifer Aniston “reunion” nonsense out of the way, right now. Sure, they bumped into each other at the SAG Awards and were very cordial. There is NO reason for them NOT to be friends! When they were married, Brad did NOT cheat on Jen with Angelina Jolie! Period. Jen told Brad she wanted a divorce and had started the process BEFORE he started filming Mr and Mrs Smith with Angelina. Brad was sad and Angelina sensed his vulnerability – she set her sights on him, but did NOT break up their marriage. It was already OVER. Ironically, years later, Angelina divorced Brad for many of the same reasons Jen did – he became a boring couch potato who smoked pot all day. Brad admits, and is now addressing, his flaws – he IS basically a nice guy. (Certainly Brad has a new appreciation for the tactful way Jen handled THEIR divorce – no nasty accusations.) Brad and Jen are happy to be friends again – but NOT interested in a repeat performance.

BRAD PITT ISN’T TAKING ANY CHANCES

Right now, the world simply cannot get enough of Brad Pitt. He was the talk of the Golden Globes – and not just because Jennifer Aniston was there also. During his acceptance speech Brad thanked co-workers but deliberately NOT his kids. He knows that any reference to them will increase press curiosity and make them vulnerable. (Angelina, on the other hand, definitely does NOT mind being seen with the kids.) Brad reportedly did not drink at Globes parties – he’s in an all-male AA group and finds it inspiring. All-male is an excellent idea – that’s not a smart place to find romance.

Brad Pitt Jennifer Aniston Spray Tan Tan

BRAD LEARNED A FEW THINGS FROM JENNIFER

Golden Globe winner Brad Pitt was radiant on the red carpet – he barely missed bumping into his ex-wife Jennifer Aniston, who was equally radiant. (They absolutely cannot be photographed anywhere NEAR each other because they will be accused by tabloids of reconciliation – and we can’t blame them.) Brad and Jen DID share a red carpet beauty tip- they both got fake tans before the event. And both looked amazing. Whether tanning bed or spray tan, Jennifer has been doing this for years, and Brad started to do the same when they were married. When he was with Angelina, Brad chose to appear as pale as she was.

Brad Pitt Smoking

BRAD PITT: CAUGHT IN THE ACT

Brad Pitt has a rep for being one of the nicer guys in Hollywood, but even HE has his flaws – as his two ex-wives are bound to remember. Smoking too much pot slowed him down considerably and indulging in too much alcohol was another problem. He’s given up a lot, but Brad still smokes cigarettes – more than ever. His kids worry because they know how unhealthy it is. Brad tried vaping without success and now he tries to keep his smoking undercover. Above, Brad entered the back door at The Arclight Hollywood where he did a Q & A.

Ad Astra Brad Pitt Movies Redemption

BRAD PITT HAS REDEEMED HIMSELF!

Brad Pitt looks truly grateful and happy at the premier of his new astronaut film Ad Astra at the Venice Film Festival, where he’s the toast of the town. Brad got great reviews for the film and his role in Once Upon a Time in Hollywood already has Oscar buzz. After a few years of being humiliated by his nasty divorce, he has quietly worked his way back into the hearts of Hollywood. Meanwhile his ex Angelina Jolie continues to be photographed EVERYWHERE with her kids – from Petco to South Korea where she dropped off Maddox at school.

Brad Pitt Burt Reynolds Hal Needham Leonardo DiCaprio Once Upon a Time in Hollywood Quentin Tarantino

QUENTIN TARANTINO’S INSPIRATION: BURT REYNOLDS!

Here’s something we didn’t know about Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood: the friendship between Leonardo DiCaprio’s actor character and Brad Pitt’s stuntman character was based on the lifelong friendship of Burt Reynolds and his stuntman Hal Needham. Burt and Hal had matching egos and machismo (not to mention gold chains and chest hair) and they were inseparable friends. Hal even lived in Burt’s guesthouse free for twelve years until he got married again. Hal died in 2013, and Quentin wanted Burt to appear in his movie, but Burt died last year.

Brad Pitt Leonardo DiCaprio Once Upon a Time in Hollywood

BRAD PITT IS BACK – THANKS TO ONCE UPON A TIME IN HOLLYWOOD

Brad Pitt has the last laugh when it comes to his role in Quentin Tarantino’s Once Upon a Time in Hollywood. Brad and Leonardo DiCaprio have the leading roles, only Leo’s part is MUCH bigger and far more melodramatic than Brad’s Once you see the movie, you realize WHY Brad took the role as Leo’s character’s cash-strapped stuntman. Brad’s stuntman is not only adorable (especially in that Caddy convertible) but he is deliciously relaxed and LIKEABLE. Leo’s has-been actor is egotistical and desperate, all the while chainsmoking and repulsively spitting in public. The 1970’s Hollywood scenes in the movie are HEAVENLY (remember when it was ok to hitchhike?) – the big cars were GORGEOUS, and there was NO TRAFFIC. Tarantino felt compelled to add some ultra violent scenes for his immature male fans, and THAT 45 minutes should be cut from the movie. But this movie is FUN, and Brad Pitt emerges as the cutie he used to be…

Brad Pitt Leonardo DiCaprio Once Upon a Time in Hollywood

BRAD PITT AND LEONARDO DICAPRIO: TAKE YOUR PICK

In Once Upon a Time in Hollywood, Leonardo DiCaprio plays an actor in a career slump and Brad Pitt plays his stunt double/best friend. They are both struggling in an ever-changing Hollywood in 1969, so the clothing, cars, and sets, are highly nostalgic. Which leading man do you prefer? Brad is 55, 5’11” tall, and worth around 240 million. Leo is 44, 6’ tall, and worth 245 million. (Of course Leo’s single and has no kids, Brad is divorced and has 6 kids.) Above, the movie premiered in Cannes.
