Given Brad Pitt’s history with relationships, I don’t think there’s any need to go searching for sinister seduction stories. He’s a cheater. We know this already.

Defintely worth a look. The rocket in the eye gag is a good one, if you can get past the giant booger flapping under his nose. . .

I think the part that is so hard on many women is the idea that these are two of the most beautiful women in the world. If they can’t keep a man happy, who can? And if the answer is that it’s all to do with the character of the man, and no amount of beauty will keep him faithful, then why are we collectively wasting a $billion per year on make-up and face cream?  
:eek:  
It’s a horrible thought . . .

:smack:

And you with the boob joke? You’re going to hell. Straight to hell. Do not pass go, do not collect $200. [You are a very bad man.](https://giphy.com/gifs/no-seinfeld-cinemagraph-6Q2KA5ly49368)

Jesus, what the fucking hell are you on about? 😕 No, that was _not_ a whoosh and that was _not_ what I was talking about. [I was talking about this:](http://defamer.gawker.com/the-collected-wisdom-of-the-french-actress-marion-cotil-1733548819)

\*\*_Marion Cotillard on the American Space Program_

“Did a man really walk on the moon? I saw plenty of documentaries on it, and I really wondered. And in any case I don’t believe all they tell me, that’s for sure.”

- French late-night TV interview, 2007\*\*  
[And here is that interview, where this airhead espoused both her 9/11 conspiracy theories and moon-hoaxer beliefs:](http://www.telegraph.co.uk/news/worldnews/1580414/Marion-Cotillards-911-conspiracy-theory.html)  
\*\*  
“But the actress faces a potential backlash in the US over comments she made in an interview in France. Footage which surfaced on the internet showed her questioning the New York terrorist attacks of September 11, 2001, and the 1969 moon landing.”\*\*

This explains why Jolie filed for full custody. I feel sorry for the kids. And also for Marion Cotillard, who seems to have nothing to do with this, other than she starred in a movie with Pitt where they play spies.

Is this divorce going to stay amicable or is it going to get ugly? Both halves of the couple have had rumored drug problems. If that starts coming up, things could get interesting.

And on that same page, Cotillard pregnant with second baby with boyfriend – OR IS IT HIS?! :rolleyes:  
One good thing to come out of all this is one of the best responses evah on @midnight. Now that Angelina is free to take up with Donald Trump, what would their celebrity name be?
