Angelina Jolie: Having Brad Pitt-Related Tattoos Removed?

It’s been just over a month since Angelina Jolie filed for divorce from Brad Pitt , and she’s certainly not dragging her feet when it comes to unburdening herself of all vestiges of her marriage. With the exception of her kids, Angelina is cleansing her life of everything that might remind her of Brad. It’s a full-blown un-Braddening and everything must go – including the “permanent” reminders of their love etched into Angie’s skin. Yes, according to Radar Online, Angie is already looking to remove both tattoos that she got in honor of Brad . “She’s got Brad’s birthplace co-ordinates on her arm, plus a romantic design they both got for each other in Cambodia, and she wants them both gone,” an insider tells Radar. Jolie is reportedly intent on getting the tatts removed or covered as quickly as possible for fear that she’ll weaken if she waits: “She’s a cold-hearted machine right now and not letting herself weaken,” says the source. The insider points out that this isn’t the first time Angie has been forced to have some ink removed following an ill-fated relationship. Some of our younger readers might not even be aware that in the bygone pre-Brangelina days, Jolie was married to Billy Bob Thornton. During their brief two-year marriage, Angie got two Billy Bob tatts, including one very near her lady parts. Not surprisingly, she was quick to get them removed after the romance went south. “She’s vowed to never ever get another romance-related tattoo again as this isn’t the first time she’s had to go through this,” says the insider. Yeah, that’s probably for the best. Of course, the tattoos are just a symbolic way of severing ties with Brad. Of greater interest are the more concrete ways in which she’s cutting the actor out of her life, particularly the methods involving the couple’s six kids. Yes, sources say the Brad vs. Angie custody battle is shaping up to be one for the ages. Jolie reportedly wants full custody, and insiders claim Brad wasn’t allowed to see the kids for a full three weeks following the couple’s separation. We suppose that’s not surprising, considering Brad was investigated for child abuse  after Jolie filed for divorce, and her decision to end the marriage was reportedly prompted by a confrontation between Pitt and the couple’s oldest son, Maddox. View Slideshow: Angelina Jolie Divorces Brad Pitt, Celebrities React in SHOCK Still, it’s rare to see such scorched-earth tactics in such a high-profile divorce. We guess Angie is proving once again that she’s not your typical Hollywood starlet.

Brad Pitt: Fighting Angelina for Sole Custody?!

It’s been just about a month now since Angelina Jolie filed for divorce from Brad Pitt , and it seems like things have gotten worse with each passing day. The first thing we heard was that Brad’s alleged drug use and drinking was what caused Angelina to pull the plug on the couple’s long relationship. And then, heartbreaking though it was, it came out that Brad was being investigated for child abuse after an incident on a plane. Brad was said to have struck his oldest son, Maddox, though reports vary on whether or not he actually meant to hit the boy. There’s also been countless claims that Brad was cheating on Angelina , and she filed for divorce after she found out. If you’ll notice, all these stories point to Brad being the bad guy here. He hasn’t really defended himself, and he even agreed to undergo random drug testing as part of the temporary custody agreement, so it’s been easy to assume that whatever happened, it was largely Brad’s fault. But according to this new report, Brad has just been biding his time . And things are about to get downright nasty. A source states that while the L.A.Department of Children and Family Services is still looking into the incident on the plane, the investigation will be over soon. And when that happens, Brad is going to fight for sole custody of the kids. Apparently Brad would have been fine with sharing custody with Angelina, but since she’s not willing to do that, he’s taking an “all or nothing” approach. “Brad’s taking the kids,” the source says. “And it’s Angie’s worst nightmare.” Yikes. The source explains that Angie isn’t “receptive” to the idea of joint custody “because she’s insisting on having sole physical custody. Angie knows that the only way she can punish Brad is by using the kids in her bitter battle with him.” “It’s a very sick game she’s playing, and she could end up losing everything.” If you don’t understand how Brad could possibly end up with sole custody after everything that’s been said about him lately, well, this insider can explain that, too. “While Angie’s camp has continued to spread lies about him and make him sound like a monster and an unfit parent, he’s refused to go dirty on her in the media. But in front of a judge, it will be another story.” “Brad has compiled a complete dossier on Angelina,” the source continues, “of the serious mental health issues she has dealt with over the years. He is saving all of the pertinent and necessary information for the battle in court, where it matters.” “He’ll go after Angelina and expose her psychological demons, show how she puts the children in dangerous situations when she visits war-torn countries and more.” “He’ll be proven as the furthest thing from the villain she’s tried to paint him to be,” the source concludes. “He’s ready for her, He can and will refute all her claims in family court. He won’t let her take those children from him.” Remember when Brangelina was proof that true love was real, when their love and beauty made the world just a little bit brighter? What happened?

Angelina Jolie: Smearing Brad Pitt & Attempting to Silence Press?!

By now, you’re almost certainly aware that Angelina Jolie has filed for divorce from Brad Pitt . The intensely private couple has been predictably tight-lipped about their legal battles, but naturally, that hasn’t kept the tabloid press from prying. Now it looks as though Jolie may have inadvertently revealed more than she intended to about her private battle with Pitt by going to incredible lengths to keep news of the split out of the gossip columns. It seems Angie has been getting legal on bloggers and entertainment writers whom she feels crossed the line in their coverage of her split with Brad. One blogger who received a cease and desist from Jolie is none other than the notorious Perez Hilton, who did not take her request kindly. Hilton posted a screenshot of his response to Angelina’s lawyers on Instagram: Hilton captioned the above message (which he concluded with a polite “Such my dick!”) with the following: “In other news, #AngelinaJolie’s lawyers at Greenberg Glusker have just threatened to sue me for my coverage of her split from #BradPitt. ME!! I have always been one of Angelia Jolie’s loudest and strongest supporters and defenders!!!!! “This was my email back to Angelina’s lawyers, #BertFields and #PriyaSapori. Glad I’m not running for president!!” Shockingly, Perez’s tersely-worded email was apparently enough to get Angelina’s lawyers to back down. The offending piece is still on his website, and Jolie’s legal team has yet to file suit, several days after they reportedly received Hilton’s response. So what does this all this tell us about the Pitt-Jolie split? Well, for starters, it’s interesting that Angelina is the one who’s concerned about details of her split going public and not Brad. After all, Pitt is the one being investigated for child abuse after allegedly getting into a physical confrontation with his son aboard a private jet. In addition, these cease and desist orders come on the heels of a new round of reports (allegedly issued from Angie’s camp) that prior rumors that Brad visited his kids last week and is working to hammer out a divorce settlement are patently false. View Slideshow: Angelina Jolie Divorces Brad Pitt, Celebrities React in SHOCK The fact that Jolie seems so suddenly concerned with smearing her ex and defending her own reputation may serve as an indication that she’s not as blameless in all this as we originally thought. Or maybe she is! We don’t know! Please don’t sue is, Angie!!!

Angelina Jolie: So Frail From Divorce Drama!

Angelina Jolie is struggling, and who can blame her? The Oscar winner, 41, is reportedly not doing well after filing for divorce from Brad Pitt after two years of marriage. Sources described Jolie as “so frail” to Life & Style . “Friends are urging her to eat, and to get help,”  one alleged insider claimed. “But she just isn’t coping well with the divorce.” Jolie, who has always been on the thin side, is showing signs of strain   “At one point, her hands were shaking so uncontrollably that she spilled a glass of water down herself as she attempted to drink it,” the source added “She became hysterical afterwards and cried nonstop for hours, smoking one cigarette after another.” Another source told People that Jolie and her six children have started therapy to cope with the split. Jolie pulled the plug on her and Pitt’s marriage because they disagreed on how to raise their children.   The final straw came during a fight between the estranged couple aboard a private plane that saw the couple’s adopted son, Maddox get caught in the crossfire. Maddox was defending his mother, but the altercation was reported to the Los Angeles Department of Child and Family Services. While Jolie fights for sole custody of the kids, she’s kept them away from the public eye in a rental home. “They didn’t leave the rental house for days,” a source told People . “It was hard for all of them. They are used to more activities and more entertainment so it’s difficult for them to just stay at the house. “The younger kids don’t understand what’s going on.” To make matters worse, Pitt’s friend, Melissa Etheridge slammed Jolie during an appearance on Andy Cohen’s SiriusXM radio show. “It breaks my heart that anyone would take something as personal as your marriage and your relationship and your rights to your children and do it as purposefully as I see it’s being done,” Etheridge, who has gone through custody battles herself, told Cohen. Etheridge also revealed that she hasn’t spoken to Pitt in about ten years. “I really hope that he reaches back out,” the singer said, adding that their relationship ended when he got together with Jolie. “There are a lot of us who haven’t seen him in 10 years. “We all lost a friend.”

Megyn Kelly and Sean Hannity: Look! We’re #Friends!!!!!

Feud? What feud?!? This is the message Fox News would like you to believe. Earlier this week, Sean Hannity took his ongoing rivalry with Megyn Kelly to a new, public level. As a refresher: On Wednesday night’s episode of The Kelly Files, the frequent foil of Donald Trump criticized the Republican nominee for President by saying that Trump avoids interviews with anyone who is NOT named Sean Hannity. Said Kelly on air: “Donald Trump, with all due respect to my friend at 10 o’clock, will go on Hannity and pretty much only Hannity, and will not venture out to the unsafe spaces these days – which doesn’t exactly expand the tent for either one of them.” Earlier in the election, upon seeing a video of Trump speaking to Hannity, Kelly wondered whether or not Trump would be talking to any “real” journalists. So shots have been fired back and forth between these Fox News colleagues for awhile. The feud culminated after Wednesday’s diss when Hannity Tweeted the following : “@megynkelly u should be mad at @HillaryClinton Clearly you support her. And @realDonaldTrump did talk to u.” The Tweet went especially viral, with multiple mainstream gossip sites picking up the story. This didn’t sit well with the higher-ups at Fox News, who are still reeling from the  Roger Ailes sexual harassment lawsuit settlement  and accusations. In response to the feud between its two best-known personalities, Fox made Kelly and Hannity pose for the PR-themed photo above. It also made each one send the same Tweet. “We’re Irish. It’s complicated. #friends,” wrote Kelly last night, which was followed by Hannity sharing this same photo and caption, writing: “We’re Irish. It’s complicated. #friends.” Hey, who isn’t buying this! Seems totally legit and as if Hannity and Kelly are absolutely friends, right? Kelly and Hannity have been on opposite sides of the whole Donald Trump thing for over a year now. While Hannity is so close with the terrible businessman that Trump told debate views to please call his friend Sean in order to get his real views on the Iraq War, Kelly has frequently clashed with The Donald. She moderated one of the first Republican Primary debates in 2015 and was later the victim of a few classic Donald Trump Twitter rants in regard to her supposedly sexist line of questioning. If you’ll recall, Trump even brought up Kelly’s menstrual cycle at one point. We’re not kidding… Donald Trump Said WHAT About Megyn Kelly?!? Where will all this go for Kelly and Hannity? It may depend on whether or not Trump wins. If so, look out, world. Mostly for a Donald Trump Presidency. But also for Sean Hannity to basically take over the television world But if Clinton can hold on and win the White House, Kelly will likely see her national profile get raised to an even higher level. She’s already one of the biggest winners in this election. She may actually be the only winner in this election so far.

Gwyneth Paltrow to Brad Pitt: We Will Get Through This!

Wholesome, crunchy, jackass Gwyneth Paltrow has some advice for her ex-boyfriend and his estranged wife—a behemoth you know as Brangelina . If you’re curious as to whether she’s crapping unicorn-blessed gems of wisdom about “conscious uncoupling,” then you just won the prize. What prize, you ask? A balloon filled with pompous arrogance, cliché sentiments, over-tweezed eyebrows, and lots and lots of sharp white teeth. Congratulations or whatever.  According to Radar Online, Gwynnie reached out to Pitt in an effort to help him through his divorce. The source said, “She’s egotistical enough to think that he’ll want her advice about consciously uncoupling from Angelina.” The best part, perhaps, is where Paltrow offered to be a mediator between the feuding duo. We’re not laughing, you are. (Okay, we’re laughing too, it’s all right.) The source revealed, “That’s the last thing Brad’s thinking about right now, of course. But Gwyneth is convinced she can help and has even offered to act as an unofficial mediator for him and Angie.”   Brad and Gwyneth  dated for a few years after meeting on the set of Seven , but things apparently weren’t meant to be, as both of them ended up with other folks that they weren’t meant to be with, either. In a 2014 interview, Gwyn said that Brad was too good for her. She was probably right. She told Howard Stern that her head was firmly up her ass till she was 40. We kindly beg to differ. Paltrow said, “I was such a kid; I was 22 when [Brad and I] met. It’s taken me until 40 to get my head out of my ass. You can’t make [the decision to commit] when you’re 22 years old. I wasn’t ready, and he was too good for me.” “I didn’t know what I was doing,” she reflected. Truth bomb? She still doesn’t. O bviously .  Dare we say that Paltrow’s probably pretty steamed that she can’t be in the mix of every A-list newsworthy item? We’d bet some gem-crapping unicorns on that idea, friends.  Get over yourself, Gwyn. Heaven knows everyone else is, and frankly, the folks in your life—and outside of it—can fully cope without your help interference.  View Slideshow: Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt: A Romance Retrospective

Angelina Jolie-Brad Pitt Divorce: Prince William and Kate Middleton Take Sides!

There is much unrest at Kensington Palace as the Duke and Duchess of Cambridge come to terms with Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s divorce. How it directly affects the lives of William and Catherine is anyone’s guess, but OK! Magazine is certain that they are j ust as cut up about the split as the rest of us. Perhaps even more so. It turns out that William and Catherine were “absolutely devastated” when they found out the news on September 20th. The couples go way back, having enjoyed tea together one time in June 2015. This makes them practically best friends. And like best friends, Bill and Cath “plan to send private messages of support to both Brad and Angelina when things settle down in the media,” according to a palace insider. When it comes to choosing sides, what will the Duke and Duchess do? Apparently William is on Team Angelina because of her humanitarian efforts, and told Catherine that he “thinks they should cut off ties with Brad.” Catherine, it’s alleged, took this to mean that William has the hots for Angelina, and is not amused. “Kate’s not so sure and is suspicious that William’s very obvious crush on Angelina is coming into play.” Her Royal Highness, though aware of the child abuse allegations, has a soft spot for Brad and therefore “can’t bring herself to believe Brad would ever hurt his kids intentionally.” Now who has the obvious crush, hmmmm? “She and Brad really connected over his love for his kids and she can’t fathom what’s being said to what she really knows,” said source added. OK! really wants to make this fab foursome happen. Back in May, the tabloid claimed that Catherine was working overtime to set up playdates for their kids, and girl time for her and Angelina. A source told OK ! that Catherine and Angelina would be on the “phone for hours and sent lots and lots of emails” discussing going to the ballet or even just down to the local pub. Now, such plans are nothing more than shattered dreams.   Instead, Catherine will have to make do with whatever girl Prince Harry brings round. Ugh.

Brad Pitt Sees Kids For First Time Since Divorce

In the weeks since Angelina Jolie filed for divorce from Brad Pitt , the actress and her six children have reportedly lived in relative seclusion in a Los Angeles rental home. Insiders say the Jolie-Pitt kids have hardly strayed from the property, and Angelina’s brother, James Haven, and eldest son, Maddox, have assisted her in keeping the younger kids distracted and entertained. It’s good that she has some help, as we imagine keeping her brood sheltered from the storm of media scrutiny while simultaneously diverting their attention from the flood of theories and rumors about their parents’ separation is no mean feat. As for Brad, well, not surprisingly, the actor is said to be devastated by the events of the past month. Pitt and Jolie have reached a temporary settlement which gives her sole physical custody of the couple’s kids. Insiders say Pitt did little to fight her on the matter, both out of hopes of expediting the divorce process for the sake of his kids, and because he ultimately had little recourse: “Brad was in an impossible situation,” famed divorce attorney Raoul Felder tells Radar Online. “The charges that have been made against him may or may not be based in fact. We still don’t know – and Angelina’s played him like a violin.” While there are varying stories about exactly what happened aboard that private jet on September 15, accounts concur that an altercation between Brad and Maddox prompted to Angelina to move out on her husband and take the kids with her. Just days later, she filed for divorce. Brad was investigated by the Department of Child and Family Services and the FBI, but both agencies ultimately decided that there were no grounds to press criminal charges. Despite the ugly nature of the split, however, Jolie has not gone so far as to request a restraining order, and People magazine is reporting that she recently allowed for Pitt for visit with his kids for an unspecified period of time. “Brad has spent some wonderful time with children recently,” a source tells the magazine. “He will do whatever it takes to be with them, now and always.” There’s no word yet on where the visit took place or whether it was supervised. Jolie was reportedly not present. “Brad loves his children more than anything in this world, and they matter more than anything else to him,” the insider adds. View Slideshow: Angelina Jolie Divorces Brad Pitt, Celebrities React in SHOCK While it’s nice that Jolie and Pitt seem to be putting their kids’ needs above their own, we still can’t see this split going smoothly. Sadly, we imagine that things will get much uglier before they approach anything resembling a resolution.

Brad Pitt Sees Kids For First Time Since Divorce

Angelina Jolie: I Won’t File Child Abuse Charges Against Brad!

The last thing we heard about the sordid saga that is Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s divorce, they’d reached a temporary settlement. According to the terms of the settlement , which will last three weeks, Angelina gets full custody of the kids while Brad gets visitation rights — but a therapist has to be present for the first visit, and the therapist will decide if Brad’s future visits should be supervised or unsupervised. Brad has to undergo random drug testing because, as we’ve heard, Angelina believes Brad has been drinking too much and smoking too much weed. And finally, the whole family has to get a whole lot of therapy. The word is that all of this came about because of an incident on a plane in which Brad is said to have attacked their oldest son , Maddox, in some way. There’s been a lot of confusion as to what exactly happened, but whatever it was, it was enough for witness to contact authorities. But now we’re hearing more details about what went down on that plane. And what’s more, we’re hearing about what Angelina wants to happen to Brad in the aftermath of the incident. According to sources on Angelina’s side who spoke with TMZ, she told the L.A. County Department of Children and Family Services that Brad actually struck Maddox in the face. Sources close to Brad maintain that he simply lunged at Maddox and accidentally hit him when Angelina got in between them. But the point is that, whatever happened, Angelina is reportedly refusing to cooperate with any actions to file charges against Brad. Yeah, this is an interesting turn of events. As it stands now, authorities can determine whether or not to charge Brad with child abuse. And if they decide to go after him, Angelina will refuse to help them. It’s kind of strange that Angelina would take this stance, since she was obviously disturbed by Brad’s actions. But this report claims that Angelina is firm — Brad shouldn’t be prosecuted. She’s said to be more concerned with “protecting her kids” instead of with “punishing Brad.” And that makes sense, right? If Brad were to be charged with child abuse, it wouldn’t be good for him, to say the least. And it would have to be hard on the kids to see their father like that.  Maybe he deserves to be prosecuted, maybe he doesn’t. It’s hard to say without knowing all the details. But either way, what a sad, sad situation this is. View Slideshow: Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt: A Romance Retrospective

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie Reach Temporary Settlement: Who Gets the Kids?

Just two weeks ago, who would have thought that we’d be talking about drug testing and therapy sessions when it comes to Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie. But here we are. Incredibly, shockingly, sadly… here we are. Sources have confirmed to TMZ that Jolie and Pitt have reached a temporary settlement in their bitter divorce battle. The actor and the actress sat down this week with the Los Angeles County Department of Children and Family Services, along with their personal attorneys, to hash out the details. Jolie, of course, filed to divorce Pitt on September 19. At the time, she cited “irreconcilable difference” as the basis for the couple’s legal split, stating for the record that she and Pitt had separated on September 15. The day before that separation date, Pitt allegedly got drunk on board a private airplane… and at least verbally abused his 15-year old son, Maddox. Some have even said that Pitt physically abused Maddox , an accusation that has led to an FBI investigation and talk that Pitt is a terrible parent. So that brings us today. View Slideshow: Angelina Jolie Divorces Brad Pitt, Celebrities React in SHOCK Sources familiar with the estranged couple’s situation tell DCFS that it made its recommendations and that the celebrities were faced with two options by the organization: Agree to their deal… or fight it out in court. Both sides have apparently agrees to the settlement laid out by DCFS. And these are the terms of the settlement, per TMZ insiders: Angelina gets full physical custody of the six children. Brad has been granted visitation rights, but only with strings attached. The first visit will be with a therapist present, with the therapist in possession of the power to either allow Brad future, unmonitored visits … or insist on being present whenever he’s around the kids. Pitt will be subject to random drug/alcohol testing. As has been stated throughout the Internet, Jolie thinks Pitt has problem with alcohol and marijuana. According to law enforcement sources, the actor’s initial test was negative for drugs and alcohol . Brad and Angelina will each submit to individual counseling. Moreover, Pitt, Jolie and the kids will undergo family counseling as a group. Brad Pitt Issues New Statement on “Family Situation” Jolie is reportedly thrilled with the arrangement, which makes sense. Her priority from the get-go has been to essentially take the kids away from Pitt. She sought full physical custody in her divorce papers. She’s also been adamant (per third party sources and reports) that Pitt needs help with substance abuse. It’s worth noting, however, that this agreement will only last for three weeks. There’s still a lot more to go in the long run for these two. At that juncture, three weeks from now, DCFS could impose new ground rules or conceivably turn the matter over to the courts. Until then, all will remain quiet and calm between the couple. But not on the Internet, of course. Expect plenty of chatter surrounding Bragelina to continue today, tomorrow, next week, next month, next year…
