By

Lauren Garroni

● Rumor has it that Brad Pitt just photographed Angelina and the brood for W's November issue. You may remember Brad and Angie played house for a Steve Klein photo portfolio in W's July 2005 issue. You know, the one where Jennifer Aniston remarked that Brad was "missing a sensitivity chip." Certainly the title "Domestic Bliss" had to rankle her.

Brad Pitt Goes for Green Beauty

By

Lauren Garroni

imageBrad Pitt is following in the footsteps of Derek Lam and teaming with Kiehl's to create the first Cradle-to-Cradle design-certified beauty product. But this isn't a traditional celebrity endorsement; Pitt won't be paid for participating, and the actor won't appear in ads. Rather, Pitt and Kiehl's are partners in a charity drive. All of the net profits from the sales of the Kiehl's Aloe Vera Biodegradable Liquid Body Cleanser will go to a foundation created by Pitt and Kiehl's to "support global environmental initiatives that minimize impact on the environment through thoughtful design."

The Curious Trailer for Benjamin Button

By

David Fincher, perfectionist that he is, would like your first look at his newest opus to be a hi-def one. The director was apparently ticked off when trailers for The Curious Case of Benjamin Button started popping up online on unauthorized sites, in grainy Youtube mode. Whatevs. To look at the images below is to get an idea of how stark and gorgeous this film will be. For those who don’t know: Brad Pitt plays a man who ages backwards. That’s Cate Blanchett as his love interest, and that’s us already waiting in line.

New ‘Burn After Reading’ Trailer from the Brothers Coen

Now that the Coen Bros. have proved Fargo was no fluke, they’re out to do the same with their cult bro-pus, The Big Lebowski. That’s the kind of vibe we’re getting from the new trailer for Burn After Reading, their star-crammed CIA dark comedy. Brad Pitt and George Clooney in a movie that isn'’t Ocean’s Fourteen is promising enough, but tack on Frances McDormand, Tilda Swinton, John Malkovich, and J.K Simmons, and you’ve got an early favorite for SAG’'s Ensemble of the Year award. And the trailer proves that Pitt, who already looks like a mimbo, was born to play one too.

Brad Pitt’s Penis (Song)

By

Brad Pitt’s Penis (Song) We’ve got proof that Brad Pitt and Edward Norton are the latest actors who should moonlight as musicians. We see Pitt as a straight power rocker, the result of a Chris Daughtry/David Cook gene experiment gone terribly right. Norton, on the other hand, has always reminded us of Clay Aiken, without the tooth whitener and skin darkener. But the two of them together make us swoon, like Jason Castro redoing "What A Day For A Daydream" in his signature sleepy twang. But because "American Idol" doesn’t allow contestant duets, Pitt and Norton will unfortunately be relegated to performing on YouTube and singing about penis in their bids for musical stardom—serenade after the jump.

It’s All Relative

imageBarack Obama just got a little cooler and Hillary Clinton just got a tad hotter. Today, the Democratic presidential hopefuls received some of the best news of their lives, political and non, because winning primaries has got nothing on this: they’re related to Brangelina. After three years of family-tree climbing, the New England Historic Genealogical Society has discovered that Brad and Barack are ninth cousins, linked by Edwin Hickman, who died in Virginia in 1769, while Hillary and Angelina are ninth cousins, twice removed, connected by Jean Cusson who died in Quebec in 1718.
