We dare you to name a more hard-working couple in the business than Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. They make a trillion dollars on the thousand or so movies they make a year and they have their hands in every humanitarian project imaginable. Add on the three dozen kids they have, and they are busy beyond busy.

So the idea of the couple being able to schedule a date night for themselves seems pretty unimaginable. Still, while being interviewed recently, Angie told sources that time spent alone with her kind of hubby holds them “together.” She explained:

“We actually schedule them (date nights). We just had one the other night and we went next door so we didn’t have to worry about the paparazzi and the kids didn’t know where we were. We have a house that has two sections so we go to the part that’s normally the studio and the office and just have dinner as a couple. If you can hold it together – which is hard these days and a lot of people separate – then you have to work at it, and you have to make that time when you are not Mom and Dad once in a while.”

Cool! There house has secret sections that they can get busy in! That’s when you know you’ve made it!

Just make sure none of the little ones can find their way in! Embarrassing!

We love how honest she’s being while promoting Salt — it’s fascinating!

Angelina Jolie recently revealed that she definitely has a dark side, as if we didn’t know! She says:

“There’s certainly a side of me that isn’t completely…sane. Or completely ‘even’ all the time. We all have our dark sides. I grew up in front of everybody, really. The big years of exploration. There was a certain madness I was going through. I learned a lot about myself.

“People tend to sum up times in your life and simplify. I would say there’s a way of being bold when you’re young that seems very brave. … What’s perceived as tough is a very funny thing. I think to be a parent is one of the scariest, boldest things to do, as opposed to, um, getting a tattoo. … Much more than jumping into a pool when you’re 20.”

Speaking of parenting, she also had more kind words about her partner Brad Pitt saying he makes her “a better person.” She continues:

“I’ve learned so much from him, as you do when you come together with another person. You both make each other better. You both learn about the best of each other, and recognize the things where you’re failing, or where you need to step up.

“When it’s a great partnership, you really are patient with each other. He has been a huge influence on me. In all ways, from my parenting to my art, to … everything.“

But Ange is still her own woman and a strong one at that! She declares:

“My evolution, and any extremes in my evolution, has been my personality, out of the nature of what’s inside me. I’m very unaware of my public self. I don’t read anything written about me. I don’t look at magazines. I only watch the films and premieres if I have to. I still haven’t seen some of my films.”

Well, we think your public self is amazing, Ange!

We can’t get enough of her!

And they can afford it!

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie bought a $40 million, 18,000-sq.-ft. villa, in the hills of Valpolicella, Italy.

The pair settled on the Palladian-style estate with 15 rooms and seven baths after looking at two lower priced properties in the area.

“They wanted something more exclusive and in record time to spend the summer vacation in Italy,” said property firm owner, Alexander Proto.

Considering they want their privacy, we think a tucked away villa with a home cinema, gym, two swimming pools with water falls and Jacuzzi tubs will do the trick.

Enjoy, kids. You deserve it!

We don’t know what to make of this book!

Andrew Morton is penning a tell-all called Angelina: An Unauthorized Biography and according to a former babysitter of Angelina Jolie, her mother Marcheline Bertrand basically abandoned her daughter after splitting with husband Jon Voight in 1976.

Former babysitter Krisann Morel also claims that for two years Marcheline kept Ange in a separate apartment in her building where she was taken care of by nannies!

Morton attributes Ange’s wild child days to this rumored early abandonment, but we’re not sure if we buy it…

Ange always said wonderful things about her mother, especially after she passed away!

What do U think?

We assumed because she already said she’d do it, they’d jump on the chance to make a sequel – regardless of whether or not it’s good!

Since Angelina Jolie has already essentially said that she’d make a sequel to her new action flick, Salt, its director Phillip Noyce isconfirming that there will be a Salt II in a few years!

He says:

“Hopefully within a couple of years, we’ll have one. Angelina’s so great in this part. When audiences see the movie they’re going to feel like it’s only just the beginning.”

We smell a franchise!

What do U think?? Would U want to see Angelina reprise the role even if the first one blows?

And you know the money will go to a good cause!

The parent company of the UK’s News of the World will play anundisclosed amount to settle a lawsuit after the paper claimed Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were legally separating and negotiating custody arrangements for their children!

Brangelina’s lawyer revealed that Rupert Murdoch’s News Group Newspapers accepted that the claims were “false and intrusive.”

Brad and Ange didn’t show up in court as they had more important things to do like looking hot together on the red carpet for the Saltpremiere, but they will be donating the money for legal costs and pay damages to their charity the Jolie-Pitt Foundation.

We wouldn’t expect anything less!

The flashbulbs were flashing at Monday night’s premiere of Angelina Jolie‘s new film Salt.

At the El Lay premiere Santa Angelina wore a black sequined dress byEmporio Armani and nude Ferragamo heels.

And to add her own personal touch Angelina wore an Asprey cuff that she and lover Brad Pitt designed.

We like the look, but we don’t LOVE it.

What do U think???

And she deserves every penny she makes!

You can praise Angelina Jolie for her humanitarian efforts and her charity work, but people rarely focus on what she’s done for film!

The award-winning actress’ latest film, Salt, secured her a nice, solid $20 million – a paycheck that only a few MALE actors can even make on one film!

Lori Watson, director of Women’s and Gender Studies at the University of San Diego, says:

“The fact that she is in the entertainment industry and can approach a male salary is an anomaly. Maybe she can command a salary, but she can’t break through the expectations that women are supposed to be beautiful and sexualized and fit a certain mold and behave in a certain way.”

Hey, we think being able to make that kind of money says something!

Especially when she has enough pull to have an entire action movie re-worked from a male lead to a female just to give her the part!

What do U think?? Has Angelina broken down barriers about women in action films??

Although the movie has yet to be released, Angelina Jolie is already talking about turning Salt into a franchise.

The actress said:

“I think if we can keep up the mystery and find another really great story, I’ll be back.

Salt is really fun in that she’s got so much depth because of her childhood and her life and a lot of what she’s gone through. She’s nicely complex. I love the possibility of the different disguises and different personalities and accents. It’s kind of like a playground for an actor, that kind of role.”

We’ll take as much of you as we can get, bb.

This is very good news for Tim Burton. Actually, it’s really good news for everyone at Disney.

Because we just can’t see Helena Bonham Carter pulling this one off.

There was a rumor floating around a few months ago that the acclaimed director, who just reworked the classic Alice in Wonderland,was now looking ahead to his next project and was hoping to castAngelina Jolie in the starring role.

And Angie is totally game!

When asked if she would consider playing the villain Maleficent in a reworked spin-off of Sleeping Beauty, Angie replied:

“I would love to. It’s all new and being discussed, but I loved her when I was a little girl. She was my favorite. Tim Burton, the chance to work with him would be extraordinary.”

Sounds like a yes to us! Everybody pull out their Hollywood schedules and lets make this work!

Marriage is not happening for Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt.

They’ve made this abundantly clear with their comments and inaction over the years … but there’s one thing that could change their minds. Well, six things.

“I think it would be hard to say no to the kids,” Angelina said this morning on Good Morning America in an excerpt of an interview airing tonight on Nightline.

Not that we should hold our breath, as it ‘s not a huge priority for them, either. “They’re not asking,” Jolie says. “They are very aware that nothing’s missing.”

Marriage or not, Jolie, who stars in the new spy thriller Salt, touches on other aspects of her family in the interview, including whether it will get any larger.

Sounds like Brangelina is torn about the issue.

OK! totally made this story up … but it could actually happen someday!

“We always have this thing, first thing in the morning, where we’re really, really tired, and we look at each other and we wonder, Are we ever going to get sleep?” the Salt actress says. “And yet we still love the idea of having more children.”

Offering a glimpse into their daily routine, Jolie says she’s better at disciplining girls, while Pitt is better at disciplining the boys. “I think girls and Daddy can just bat their eyes,” she says. “And the boys, funnily enough, can kind of get me.”

Asked if she and Brad will grow old together, Angelina doesn’t hesitate: “Of course … We wouldn’t have six children if we weren’t absolutely sure of that.”

She also describes the pandemonium of ordinary events such as breakfast: “We’re like bartenders. We’re like waiters,” she says of herself and her partner.

“But we still, I think, are able to do it because we manage to have a great laugh. We do it together, and we find fun in it, and because of that, it doesn’t matter if you don’t get enough sleep. It’s an honor to take care of them.”

Is she totally awesome or what?

Brangelina Will Get Married (Once the Kids Ask)! – The Hollywood Gossip.

Brangelina Will Get Married (Once the Kids Ask)! – The Hollywood Gossip is a post from: Jess the Actress

We just love her!

Angelina Jolie opened up to Parade Magazine about her life with partner Brad Pitt, their 6 children and her notoriously rebellious past in Hollywood.

Here are some HIGHlights:

On her relationship with Brad:

“The children certainly tie us together, but a relationship won’t hold if it’s only about the kids. You also must be really interested in each other and have a really, really wonderful, exciting time together. We do. Brad and I love being together. We enjoy it. We need it, and we always find that special time. We stay connected. We talk about it. It’s very important.

“If Brad and I are strong and happy, then our kids have happy parents, and that’s the best thing we can give them. Brad knows me completely, exactly as I am, every part of me. He loves me. The kids love me. They know all my flaws and all my oddities. And they accept them. And so I can feel complete.”

On being in love:

“I feel sad for someone who has never known love. Love elevates. You know, Brad would joke about me having this conversation about love. Love? It’s such a funny word. Brad can find certain phrases of poetry for it. I’m terrible at it. But I know it means wanting the best for the people you love, putting their interests above your own, always. Love does that. Love is what you live for.“

On her past:

“I used to cut myself or jump out of airplanes, trying to find something new to push up against because sometimes everything else felt too easy. I was searching for something deeper, something more. I tried everything. I always felt caged, closed in, like I was punching at things that weren’t there. I always had too much energy for the room I was in.”

On her home life:

“There’s never a period when Brad and I are pulled apart. We are not separated for more than three days, ever. We stay really connected. We actually don’t go out much. It’s funny. We’re very homebound. We’re very much Mommy and Daddy in our pajamas.“

Cute!

We think they’re such an amazing family — and Ange definitely sounds like an amazing mother!
