Sad Brad Puffs and Ponders

Brad Pitt took a pensive break from helping Angelina Jolie collect items from her late mother's hotel room, and sat on the balcony floor to have a cigarette on Wednesday.

Angelina's mother, Marcheline Bertrand, passed away on Saturday after a long battle with ovarian cancer. She had been living at L'Ermitage Hotel in Beverly Hills.

The tragic news brought the supercouple back to Los Angeles after their relocation to New Orleans where Brad is shooting his latest film, "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button."

62. He's thinking of how much happier he was with Jennifer. That's why he always seems unhappy in his recent pics.

65. You fools, you don 't even know that maybe Angelina's mother, herself, tells her not to worry about her and live her life as normal as possible, in their situation, and go wherever it's necessary for them to go, in accordance to their business. As I have learned through Angelina's interviews, her mother is a very understanding and very supportive mother. With Angelina's finances she can afford to make her mother comfortable and more, specially with her illness.

67. To umustbesosmart

Yes, I care and if you don't think I've haven't NAGGED my mother everyday since I was a child to quit smoking, you're wrong! She's a grown assed (stubborn) woman who continues to smoke. And strangely enough is healthy as hell for her age. It's not the norm, but I'm grateful for that. And I know damn well how hard and painful it is to watch a person dye of cancer. My sweet aunt went from a healthy, HAPPY woman to looking like Nicole Richie on her worst day. So don't f*ing preach to me!

We've all lost people we love in this world!

And all you people making snide remarks about how Jolie was too buzy going around the world instead of being with her mother are maggots! Just because you see someone in a tabloid paper doesn't mean you know them or their life!

68. Bee, the arguments are childish. Most of the posters are JA fans and probably so are you really they are just saying something because they don't like the fact that Brad has a family with AJ now and he is never going back to JA. You guys simply cannot accept the fact he is never going back to JA. He genuinely loves his family. Being a smoker doesn't make anyone a bad parent as I am sure a high percentage of parent's in this country do smoke and some of you smoke.

George Burns smoked Cigars and he lived until he was 92 years old and so has many others. Silly, silly arguments.

69. It is one of the most hurtful things to lose a parent at any age. I, also believe, that while she was spending so much time trying to keep Brad out of LA, her priorities became blurred. She always appeared happiest when she had him all to herself, and the world watching, just what she can make this man do for her love. I do believe, she will also take in to account, maybe, that life is too short. She have said in the last few months, how much Brad changed her, how wonderful it is to have him in her life, and anything else she could do or say, to throw salt in Jennifer wound. Hopefully, with this type of pain can come some clarity that all the time spent on trying to convince the world how so connected she is with Brad, she could have used that precious time with her mother. She has been with Brad a couple of years, but her mother has been, as Angelina put it, her best friend all her life, and she didn't get any shout out. Well, she did, when she said that she don't trust her mother, no more than anyone else when it come down to people she feel could betray her. Most people don't feel that way about their best friend, especially when that best friend is your mother. A mother, that at the time she made this statement was in her last stages of cancer. My heart hurts for her lost, however, Angelina continue's to show that she is a sociopath. Nothing more nothing less. I am sorry, let me correct myself, a beautiful, sociopath.

70. Dana Reeves (Christopher Reeves) wife died of Lung Cancer and NEVER SMOKED!

And when did this become a freaking debate about smoking and non smoking causing cancer? Let's talk about how evil, heartless and cruel this photograher/stalkers are for waiting around like vultures for a shot! What, hoping for a pic of Angelina bawling her eyes out in grief? Disgusting! TMZ and all the rest are cum and I'm not coming here anymore.

Oh, and FU to all the haters!

71. Shanna, maybe you should campaign for JA to rekindle her relationship with her mother since you know so much about how much time AJ spent with her mom and everything she said in this interview and that interview.

72. I can't wait until JA find's her a man/husband whatever so she and her fans can stop being so miserable.

73. Since when does smoking make someone a "bad person" or a "bad father"? I think some of these comments on here are totally rediculous! Yes, I know smoking is bad for your health but people do all kinds of things that are bad for their health on a daily basis. I don't look at an overweight person who is eating a cheeseburger and say "oh they must be a terrible parent for eating that fattening food because it could kill them and it's a bad example for their children". Give me a break! Most of us probably grew up with parents who smoked and it didn't ruin our lives or turn us into dysfunctional human beings now did it? Brad seems to be a great father in every way that matters! He's going through a stressful time so there's no need to be so judgmental! All you people on here who are so quick to critisize these two need to ask yourselves if you are perfect.

74. He will pass away next if he doesn't stop smoking the butts! What a tool!

75. He should not be smoking after his mother in law died from cancer. Angelina does not like him smoking so he must have cut the apron strings for a second to grab a puff!
