Time for Plan B! Pitt Attacks Paps With Kindness

Brad Pitt, one of the most photographed men in the world, desperately tried to get the paparazzi off his back -- with heart-to-heart talks.
Pitt chats with photos: Click to launch photos
Clad in his tough-guy motorcycle gear, Pitt went face-to-face with every photographer stationed outside of his Hollywood Hills mansion yesterday, making a personal plea for privacy. He's got a flair for the dramatic.

While many of the shutterbugs were moved by his efforts, most seemed disinterested and continued to flash away at the star, begging the question -- will you please take off the helmet?!

46. I have a simple economics lesson for you.

The paps are paid by magazines, for the sake of argument, we'll say People.
People magazine pays the paps for the rights to the photos, so they can put them into their magazine.

You buy that article of People, because it has Brad Pitt on it.

and then you whine about the paps.

seriously people, 72% of you feel he deserves his privacy from the paps.
stop buying sh*tty mags like People, who contribute nothing to society, and he'll have it.

Supply = People Magazine. Demand = You.

47. Look at all the time that ANGELINA "CHOSE" to be away from her mother. That is going to haunt her to the day SHE dies, because it was avoidable.

52. It's morons like #5,6, that constantly defend these so called stars and put them on pedestals for being nothing more then talentless, overpaid,freebie receiving at taxpayers cost whiny asses.That's why they continue to make 15mil a pic because the trend has been to pimp out the talentless and there always seems to be buyers.Grow up and come back to reality,you wanna be a star you deal with all that comes with it.I for one am sick of hearing about these two HAS BEENS.

53. She used to wear blood in a vial around her neck. That sh*t is weird. What exactly was the thinking behind that? And did it work?

54. himself the one responsible, he is available for camera every second like paris hilton then they will take picture of him. He can ask Jennifer Aniston pr how they handle the papparzi, she does not make herself available 24/7

57. As an adult I came to realize that when people are miserable, they tend to take it out on others. This website and others like it only proves that point every day. Brad and Angelina just had a death in the family, be they married or not. I'm sure that he is upset. Celebrities are human, they understand the price of fame, but the media, fans, should give them time to grieve, without camera being shoved in their faces.
The horrible things written here are just a reflection of your own pathetic lives. Jealousy and Envy can be a bitch!

And another thing, "You can not take another human being who is in love from another person, unless they want to go" which means, Brad was unhappy in his marriage, which is why he left Jennifer for Angelina.
Nobody can take your man, or your woman unless they want to go. The harsh reality is dealing with why they wanted to leave, so it's easier to blame the other man or woman. Get over it people.

58. Noone is bothering Angelina. She is out of sight as she should be if she is grieving. As for Brad, it's his lovers mother, not his. In the future if they want privacy, they should ...

1. stop eating at the Ivy (cripes, is that the only restaurant in LA?)
2. stop walking every red carpet in Hollywood
3. use the private entrances/exits at airports
4. stop announcing every trip to Africa

You can't court the paps just when it suits you. They will only respect you if you are consistant.

59. knock off. youre crazy as sh*t. what's wrong w/u?

60. its tough living in a fish bowl everyday of your life. but i think brad wants privacy obviously because of angie's mothers death. and these sh*t monger paparazzis should give it to them. at least for a week. but it almost seems the more they ask, the worse it gets. and its just disgusting. sure it sounds like a sh*tty thing he did to his ex wife. but guess what people? it happens to good people everyday. the public was not involved in their marriage we can only speculate what happened to make it fall apart. so get over it and let these two do some healing.
