Here’s a video clip of Angelina in the Dominica Republic with the president:

E News did a nice little piece to cover the Dominican part of Angelina’s trip, and didn’t even get snarky which is always a nice bonus!

This is a video clip of Angelina arriving in Haiti and you know, now I know why she prefers to do her UNHCR travels without cameras (other than the official UN photos/videos). Listen to the people screaming her name. I know it’s exciting to see her but this isn’t the red carpet, it’s a disaster zone and she’s there to help not to be photographed. I wish they wouldn’t do that when she’s there for humanitarian work, it’s almost disrespectful to her and more importantly to the victims.

There’s also a video over here which is much better. You can then check out some photos of Angelina in the Doctors Without Borders hospital over here.

Whew. Angelina needs to slow down just so I can keep up with her!

In the video we see Brad standing up cheering, a cute moment of Angelina doing a victory “chair dance”, and my favorite of all, the reaction when Maddox accidentally knocks his water bottle off the ledge. Angelina looks like she’s thinking, “oh no, please tell me that didn’t land on anyone, someone else look and tell me!”

It really seems like they had a great time at the game!

(Thanks to everyone who let me know about the clip!)

Well, her boots were dusty but it wasn’t new dust – only because she hadn’t gone anywhere yet! However, after leaving Miami, while Brad and Maddox jetted home it turns out that Angelina headed to the Dominican Republic to visit with Haitian refugees!

Children who were still recovering from the massive earthquake that devastated Haiti last month were in the Dominican to be treated for various injuries. Angelina did a tour of the pediatric portion of a hospital in Santo Domingo. She also met with Dominican President Leonel Fernandez to discuss the current refugee situation, and was then preparing to head across the border to Haiti itself.

I know Angelina has been to Haiti before; I can’t imagine the shock it will be to see its current state in person.

I’m not at all surprised to find out that Angelina Jolie has gone to Haiti. It was really only a matter of time!

(In some other good news, I was watching CNN earlier and Dr. Sanjay Gupta said a man had been pulled from the rubble today after almost four weeks and other than extreme weight loss and severe dehydration he appears to be doing well. What a miracle!)

Brad and Angelina’s lawyer Keith Schilling referred to the story as “false allegations about their relationship” and said, “We can confirm unequivocally … that the allegations published by the News of the World are false as well as intrusive.”

It’s been several weeks now since News of the World released their false story claiming that Brad and Angelina had met with a lawyer to begin a formal dissolve of their relationship, taking care of assets and custody issues.

Well News of the World, it looks like you’re part psychic because Brad and Angelina DID meet with a lawyer – except their legal meeting is all about suing you! Naturally the tabloid (slag rag as I like to say now) did not reply to calls from People magazine.

It’s embarrassing to purposely make a huge accusation like that, but I imagine it’s even worse when you get dragged into court for it too. This type of proceeding won’t stop all the tabloids from speculating but if this case goes through and Brad and Angelina successfully sue News of the World it might give other tabloids pause for a little while!

Normally I’m not one to shout “sue!” but in this case I’m happy to see that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are taking legal action because sometimes you just have to put your foot down and say enough is enough.

In the meantime, while this is discussed by legal teams, you can enjoy knowing that we already knew the truth anyway and enjoy the video of photos of Brad and Angelina with Maddox at the Superbowl in my previous post.

I found a video clip of some of the Brad, Angelina, and Maddox Superbowl photos check it out!

One of my favorites is this one with Angelina cheering hard, she looks like such a hardcore fan. I think that’s the same face and pose I was making when Porter intercepted and ran 74 yards for a touchdown, effectively changing the course of the game.

Speaking of cheering, I also love this shot where you can see just how excited Brad was over the game – he was so happy!

Then of course, there’s the one everyone’s talking about, the great photo of Brad and Angelina kissing right here. That’s one happy-looking couple!

Enjoy the photos! I’m still soaring over the fact that the Saints won, and I’m sure that with such close ties to New Orleans that Brad, Angelina, and Maddox are still ecstatic too!

The two were photographed heading into the game with Brad looking pretty sexy in a suit and Maddox looking sharp in his fedora. I’ll bet they would have enjoyed themselves anyway but the fact that their team won makes it all the better.

In related news I’d like to apologize to anyone who might have been trying to sleep only to be disturbed by my crazy screaming but I really get into the Superbowl (football fans run in my family) and I was cheering for the Saints – not because of Brad and Maddox, but because it was their first time and I wanted them to win. Besides, New Orleans deserved something amazing.

Looks like Mardi Gras came early! I wonder if Brad and Maddox will stop off in New Orleans on their way home!

Congratulations Saints, you played amazingly well!

I think it’s pretty safe to say that Brad and Maddox are rooting for the Saints in the big game!

Is it just me or does it seem like Maddox grew up overnight? Kids have this freaky way of suddenly looking different, and Maddox is definitely getting bigger and turning into a young man. It’s hard to believe it wasn’t just yesterday that Brad was carrying him on his shoulders!

This discussion came to mind because of a comment that PittWatch reader Neil made in this post. The comment was: “What I would REALLY LOVE to see her do is a TV turn with Gabriel Byrne in the HBO serial “In Treatment”. THAT would be heaven for me.”

That prompted the conversation as to whether it would be as though Angelina Jolie was “lowering” herself to appear on a television show. The thing is, as I said in those comments, the lines between television and movies have really faded away compared to years ago. Now a lot of television actors film movies while the show is on hiatus (and many of them are quite successful) and many movie actors have appeared as guest stars on television or even moved to a regular TV show (such as Sally Field who is an Oscar-winning film actress but is now on the critically acclaimed Brothers and Sisters).

I don’t necessarily want Brad Pitt or Angelina Jolie to do a regular television role although that would mean seeing them more often. However, I did think it would be fun if one or both of them did a guest appearance at some point.

Just for fun, what show would you love to see Brad or Angelina guest star in?

My favorite show on TV is Criminal Minds and I would absolutely love to see Angelina Jolie star as a serial killer. There have been several particularly excellent criminals on that show (and by excellent I just mean really well written and then well portrayed), particularly those played by Jason Alexander and C. Thomas Howell. I think it would be fun to see Angelina as a really well-developed psychotic character who uses her beauty and charm to lure victims in. There have been several male characters written that way, it would be interesting to see the female version.

Meanwhile, I really loved Brad as a detective in Se7en and it would be good to see him reprise a law enforcement role, maybe an FBI agent consulting on a case on an episode of CSI or a guest appearance on NCIS. On the other hand, he could be a great guest character on an episode of House either as a doctor or a patient with a really bizarre medical case.

How about you? Even though it’s unlikely that Brad Pitt or Angelina Jolie will make a guest appearance on a television drama or sitcom – heck, maybe you’d prefer if they never did! – let’s just imagine for a moment. What show would you love to see them show up on?

I had never heard the song before but it’s quite nice! I especially like the quiet shared moments shown in the video, such as when they’re snuggling and smiling together at their table amid the noise of awards shows.

Enjoy! And be sure to pop in over the weekend because tomorrow I’ll have a discussion post up – it’s been awhile since we’ve done that and I always love reading everyone’s ideas!

Of course, the even bigger question is how are they going to include the character of Fox in the sequel? On the other hand, that would be something that would definitely push me to see the movie – sheer curiosity!

Mark has essentially admitted that Angelina is not officially on board but if they’re still working on it then that means she probably hasn’t said a flat-out no either. I have a feeling that she’ll be interested if the final script makes it worthwhile. Angelina doesn’t need to do a movie to make money, she does movies because the topic touches her or the role seems like it would be a lot of fun to do. Mark said this about the current process of getting everyone to agree:

“We’ve been going back and forth with some ideas, but there’s a lot of people to please. There’s Angelina Jolie, there’s [director] Timur [Bekmambetov] and there’s Universal. Everybody is a perfectionist on it, so nobody wants to come in and cash the check and take off. Everybody wants it to be good. And the first movie made $340 million, so the bar is pretty high. It’s not as if we started small and this could hopefully get a bit bigger. This has got to be mega now because the last one made a lot of money and people are expecting a lot from it.”

I don’t think that a sequel is necessary for Wanted and I’m not even sure it’s a good idea. Sequels aren’t a guarantee of success (of course it has worked well for some film franchises, but many tend to bomb), and in the case of Wanted’s ending it could end up being really bad. I’d venture that a prequel might work better in this case, but if Angelina gives it a chance then I’ll try it with an open mind.

I’m definitely more interested in getting to see Salt and The Tourist but Wanted 2 could be fun in the end if they handle it well – and get Angelina Jolie to say yes!
