Brad Pitt And Angelina Jolie With The Kids In Venice, Italy

2010.03.09

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were spotted arriving somewhere in Venice, Italy, with several of their kids. I can make out Zahara, Shiloh, and I think that’s Pax (in the last thumbnail).

I’m sure Brad and Angelina are trying to make the most of Angelina’s days off from filming ‘The Tourist’ to enjoy some family time.

The life of a working actor… I’d LOVE to spend a few months living in Venice (and earn a not-too-shabby paycheck in the process :) .

Although, I have to admit, I’ll REALLY miss these two on the red carpet tonight at the Academy Awards.

Smell like Jennifer Aniston!

Aside from the whole post-Brad Pitt-Angelina Jolie pity-party story line that’s been perpetuated by the tabloids for the past five years, Jennifer Aniston is the ultimate aspirational brand.

We want her shiny, shiny golden tresses and preternaturally toned, bikini-ready body. But without a personal mane wrangler and a yoga instructor on call 24-7, that’s unlikely to happen. Instead, maybe we can just make do with smelling like the winsome star.

Aniston’s rep confirms to us that she’s launching a signature fragrance, which will put her in competition with a crowded and aromatic field that includes Britney Spears, Jessica Simpson, Reese Witherspoon, Paris Hilton, Kim Kardashian, Sarah Jessica Parker and Jennifer Lopez.

Details of the scent are sketchy at the moment but will be released soon.

According to OK!, Jen, who recently celebrated her 41st birthday with a Mexican getaway, has been developing the perfume for nearly two years, although she is apparently on the fence about what to call it.

The actress “has yet to get 100 percent behind any name,” says an insider, “but the one she favors is ‘Aniston.’” Not so, says her spokesman, who calls the eponymous perfume speculation “wrong.”

“It will not have her name,” he assures us.

Another moniker that was apparently nixed: Echo.

“It’s all about capturing the idea of romance and freedom at any age,” the source explains to the mag, “but it’s hard to do that in just one word.”

Once the fragrance debuts, Jen, who over the last few years has successfully stumped for Smartwater, is reportedly planning a promotional campaign that will include “some really glamorous” TV spots.

So, what do you think Aniston should call her perfume (and no, “Angelina Sucks,” “Eau de Regret,” “Scorned,” and “Brad Lingers” are not options)? Tell us in the comments!

Sean Penn to Critics: Please Get Rectal Cancer!

Sean Penn to Critics: Please Get Rectal Cancer! Photo 1

Sean Penn can relate to Angelina Jolie.

Both are A-list celebrities and Oscar winners. Both have also gotten deeply involved in humanitarian causes, and yet somehow face criticism for doing so.

In January, the actor brought 11 doctors to Haiti, helping to establish a private relief organization for the earthquake-ravaged nation.

But many cynics out there have argued that Penn ought to avoid such endeavors because they think he’s doing it solely for positive PR. Moreover, they find it hypocritical for a star to complain about an injustice… and then return to his mansion.

To these critics, in an interview with CBS News’ Sunday Morning, Penn said:

“I haven’t had an awful lot of time to pay attention to them. You know, do I hope that those people die screaming of rectal cancer? Yeah. You know, but I’m not going to spend a lot of energy on it.”

We love the response.

Why? We wrote a similar defense of Jolie last month, but look: even if you wish to believe that these stars take part in charitable causes simply because it makes them look good (and you have zero evidence to back this up; it’s solely a decision to be cynical)… who cares?!?

They still are donating their time and their money. The homeless in Haiti are still better off for their efforts. Aren’t these results the most important thing?

In an age in which Snooki and Kim Kardashian are worshiped just because they have big breasts and appear on TV, it’s nice to see Penn, Jolie and others actually do something positive with their celebrity. They don’t just spout talking points and hollow cliches (hi, Sarah Palin). They take action.

If you choose to attach a hidden agenda to these actions, we don’t hope you die from cancer. But we do pity you.
