Brad Pitt: Angelina Jolie’s signature dish is cereal



Actor says they have a lot to learn in the kitchen

Brad Pitt has revealed he and Angelina Jolie can't cook.

The couple prefer to make simple dishes for their six kids.

‘I can rock a Sunday BBQ but that’s as far as my culinary talents go,’ he tells Jamie Oliver.

When the star was asked what Angelina's signature dish would be, he replied "cereal".

Brad, 44, and Ange, 33, are parents to four-month-old twins Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline.

They also have daughter Shiloh, 2, and adopted kids Maddox, 7, Pax, 4, and Zahara, 3.

Brad Pitt's Orleans privacy




Brad Pitt loves living in New Orleans because it is the only place his "family can have a sense of privacy".

The 44-year-old actor - who raises six children with partner Angelina Jolie - can escape the intense interest in his personal life when he goes home to the US city.

He said: "Living in New Orleans means we can all escape to a sense of normalcy, if there's such a thing.

"It's the only place where my family can have a sense of privacy. People there have other things to worry about than all this silliness."

Brad also revealed he decided to star in new movie 'The Curious Case of Benjamin Button' - in which he has to wear layers of make-up as well as prosthetic noses and scalps - because he was so keen to work with director David Fincher, who helmed his movies 'Se7en' and 'Fight Club', again.

Recalling the first time he watched a Fincher film, Brad said: "It was after this night of utter debauchery in Mexico in 1992, I watched 'Alien 3'.

"I remember walking out of the theatre thinking, 'OK, that was not what I expected. That wasn't a Hollywood ending'. It really stuck with me."

'Fantastic' Catwoman Angelina Jolie




Angelina Jolie would make a "fantastic" Catwoman, says Aaron Eckhart.

The 'Dark Knight' actor was delighted to hear Angelina is being lined up to play the feline villain and thinks a new Batman movie would be a box office smash if she lands the starring role.

Aaron said: "I thought that was a fantastic idea. When I read that, I felt like all of our records that we made would be broken if she did Catwoman."

The actor added he was equally as excited about rumours Johnny Depp may take the part of the Riddler, but joked to Us Weekly magazine: "Every time I hear these guys mentioned, I feel worse about myself!"

Veteran actress Julie Newmar, who played Catwoman in the 'Batman' TV series from 1966 to 1968, has previously claimed Angelina would be the perfect choice to play the iconic role.

She said: "Angelina would own the part. I can understand how it would pique her interest. Catwoman is Batman's one true love.

"She is tremendously popular with women because she's both a heroine and a villainess."

Since the TV series, other actresses to take on the role of Catwoman include Michelle Pfeiffer in 1992 movie 'Batman Returns', while Halle Berry's portrayal of the villain in 2004 film 'Catwoman' was panned by critics worldwide

Angelina Jolie falls out with dad Jon Voight… again



Actress upset about his support of John McCain in US election battle

Angelina Jolie is said to have turned her back on her father Jon Voight after he publicly backed John McCain to be the next US president.

The actress and partner Brad Pitt, 44, supported Barack Obama, 47, who won the election earlier this month.

Angelina, 33, is also thought to have been upset that Jon spoke so highly of Republican vice-presidential nominee Sarah Palin, 44.

‘She was embarrassed by her father’s association with McCain, not to mention his comments about Sarah Palin, who she isn’t a fan of,’ a source tells the Daily Express.

'Things are fragile between them and it doesn’t take much to rock the boat. Their political differences haven’t helped things.’

Angelina and Jon, 69, have had a strained relationship ever since he split from her mother Marcheline Bertrand when she was just a year old.

Angelina Jolie: Brad Pitt changed my views on getting pregnant



Angelina Jolie never thought she'd experience childbirth.

The actress, 33, didn't believe it was necessary to have a baby of her own.

‘I just thought there were so many children in the world I never felt I needed to create a life' she says.

'I wasn’t sure I’d ever be comfortable with getting pregnant.’

But meeting Brad Pitt, 44, changed her views on going through labour.

‘There was a day when we both talked about wanting a large family,’ she tells The Sunday Times.

‘At the time I was only thinking of adoptive children, but he saw a big family mixed with adoptive and born children.

‘And I ended up falling in love with a man who I think was destined to have children and suddenly one day it felt right and there it was.’

The couple have six children, including Maddox, 7, Pax, 4, Zahara, 3, Shiloh, 2, and four-month-old twins Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline.

Angelina Jolie opens up about her past drug experience's



Angelina Jolie has revealed that in her teens and 20s she experimented with all sort of mind-altering substances.

The Oscar-winning actress, who is now in a relationship with Brad Pitt, 44, admits she's had a wild past.

‘I have done just about every drug possible,’ Angelina tells The Sunday Times. ‘Cocaine, heroin, Ecstasy, LSD…’

But the actress says it was cannabis that had the most effect on her.

‘The worst effect, oddly enough, was pot, which make me feel out of control,’ she says.

Angelina, 33, is now a clean living mum-of-6 but says she doesn’t regret anything.

‘I’m one of those people who believes you just can’t regret things in life,’ she says.

‘You have to feel confident that it was all part of the journey.’

Angelina Jolie: I'm ready to quit acting and be a grandma



Star is happy to step out of the limelight

Angelina Jolie admits she’s happy to stop working and become a full-time mum.

The actress has daughter Shiloh, 2, twins Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline, 4 months and adopted kids Maddox, 7, Pax, 4 and Zahara, 3, with partner Brad Pitt, 44.

And she wants to put her career on hold to look after them.

‘I'm ready to do a few things now and fade away and get ready to be a grandma one day,’ she reveals.

‘So I'm not so worried that I want to keep this pace up and try to be something and be a celebrity and be a successful actress forever.

'First and foremost I have a lot of children and I have a big
responsibility to make sure that they're growing right and that they've
got us there for them.'

But Ange, 33, hasn’t ruled out returning to the big screen if something challenging comes up.

‘I don't think I'll ever say I'm never ever going to work because maybe there's that interesting project where I feel creative,’ she tells the BBC.

'But certainly I think now I haven't worked for a year. I'll work for a few months in February. I won't work again probably for another year.'

Angelina Jolie's broody movie




Angelina Jolie says her new film helped her get pregnant.

The 33-year-old actress - who raises six children with partner Brad Pitt - believes she wouldn't have conceived twins Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline if she hadn't starred in new movie 'Changeling', in which she plays a mother whose son goes missing.

She said: "I got pregnant right in the middle of shooting and I think partially because of the film. I was so emotional about children that I think something in me kicked into gear."

Angelina also admitted she considers her ever-expanding brood in everything she does, adding: "The centre of my life is my kids."

The actress revealed despite her growing family, she sometimes finds it hard to cope and gets distracted from her professional obligations.

Speaking about her recent attendance at an event which honoured 'Changeling' director Clint Eastwood, Angelina told the Los Angeles Times newspaper: "I woke up at three in the morning with four kids with jet lag and two babies. I put myself together for a few hours and go out. And then I go home. This is my job."

Jennifer Aniston Hits Back At Angelina Jolie Over Brad Pitt



The actress speaks out for the first time since Angie's public confession...

Jennifer Aniston has spoken out for the first time about Angelina Jolie's admission that she effectively stole her ex-husband Brad Pitt.

The Friends actress – who is constantly faced with stories and images of Brangelina and their growing brood – has struggled to find her perfect prince since splitting with Brad in 2005.

And since Angelina very publicly declared that her romance with Brad began on set of Mr & Mrs Smith when he was still married to Jen, the actress has struggled to find the right words to say – until now.

Jen told US Vogue, “What Angelina did was very uncool.”

A source close to Jen also told The Sun, “This interview shows that Jennifer is no longer afraid of Angelina. It's hugely significant.

“She's never been this honest or brave before.”

Angelina reportedly contacted Jen recently to reconcile in the wake of her careless confession.

Angelina Jolie's spontaneous wedding




Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt are set to have a spontaneous wedding.

The couple - who raise six children together - are determined not to worry about their nuptials, and think a spur-of-the-moment decision on a date to wed would be best.

A source close to the couple told America's OK! magazine: "Angelina has always toyed with the idea of getting married to Brad. She's always followed her gut instincts in life, love and family. As the kids get older and they add to their brood, they want to make as few complications as possible.


"They'll wake up one morning and know it's the right time. With everything that they do, the decisions they make are for the greater good of the children and the family."

It was recently revealed Brad - who is divorced from 'Friends' actress Jennifer Aniston - is unsure about marrying Angelina, because he is scared of a second failed marriage.

A source said: "Brad's divorce from Jennifer was painful. It was hard on his parents and he considers it a major failure in his life.

"His big excuse for not marrying Angelina is that he hates even the possibility of something like that happening again."
