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."

76.
I have read all the postings here & I can't help but add mine.

YOU PEOPLE ARE SUCH IDIOTS!!!!!!!!!!!
SHE PASSED AWAY OF OVARIAN CANCER. ANGELINA WAS INSIDE TAKING CARE OF HER MOTHER'S BELONGINGS, AND YOU PEOPLE ARE ON HERE TALKING ABOUT BRAD NEEDING TO GIVE UP SMOKING????
NOW, ARE YOU KIDDING ME!!!!!!
JUST ASK MY HUSBAND HOW GREIF STRCKEN I WAS WHEN MY MOTHER PASSED AWAY (SHE BATTLED ON FOR 3 YEARS).
MOST OF YOU HAVE NOT HAD TO GO THROUGH THIS; AND UNTIL YOU DO SHUT THE F-CK UP!!!! YOU DO NOT KNOW WHAT YOU ARE TALKING ABOUT. ANGIE WAS VERY CLOSE TO HER MOTHER, AND HAD HOPES OF HER BEATING THIS. IT IS NOT EASY, TO SIT BY YOUR MOTHER'S BEDSIDE, AND WATCH HER FADE AWAY SLOWLY. IT IS GUT WRENCHING,
PEOPLE IN THE FAMILY START ARGUING, (ESPECIALLY SIBLINGS).
AND SOMETIMES BECAUSE OF THE MEDICATIONS, THEY DON'T EVEN REMEMBER YOU AT TIMES.
THE ROOM MY MOTHER PASSED AWAY IN IS UNTOUCHED.
THE PERSON THERE WILL NOT LET ANYONE GO IN JUST TO TRY & GET A GRIP THAT SHE IS REALLY GONE.

DOCTORS, NURSES, HOSPICE VOLUNTEERS, etc...TELL YOU THAT YOU NEED TO PREPARE YOURSELF. LET ME TELL YOU FROM EXPERIENCE;
Y O U A R E N E V E R P R E P A R E D!!!!!
WHEN YOU SEE THEM IN THE CASKET, WHICH I KNOW SEVERAL PEOPLE WHO WILL NOT WALK UP TO THE BODY BECAUSE THEY WANT TO REMEMBER THEM THE WAY THEY WERE.
DAMN, YOU PEOPLE ON HERE FOR ATTACKING THEM!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WHO KNOWS WHAT GOES ON WITH ALL OF YOU @ HOME OR THE LOCAL PUB, CLUB, WHATEVER.

I WALKED OUTSIDE THE FUNERAL HOME FOR A FEW MINUTES AFTER MY MOTHER'S SERVICE, I WAS VERY UPSET, AND I SAW MY AUNT'S & UNCLES SMOKING UP A STORM FOR CHRIST'S SAKE. SO!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
WOULD IT HAVE DONE ANY GOOD FOR ME TO WALK OVER TO THEM AND PREACH ABOUT THEIR SMOKING?
LET ME GIVE YOU A HINT: THE MORE YOU NAG THEM TO STOP, THE MORE THEY SMOKE.
"JUDGE NOT, LEST YE BE JUDGED"

UNTIL YOU WALK IN THE SHOE'S THEY ARE WALKING IN
SHUT YOUR STUPIDASS' UP!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

THE ENTIRE FAMILY IS GRIEVING, SO TAKE YOUR CHEAP SHOTS SOME OTHER PLACE!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

77.
HER MOM JUST PASSED AWAY, ANGIE'S INSIDE.
BRAD'S OUTSIDE SMOKING A CIG.
CIGARRETTE'S ARE THE WORST HABIT TO KICK.
IT CAN BE DONE.

BUT, CAN'T YOU PEOPLE GET OFF BRAD'S ASS?????????????
SMOKING IS A DE-STRESSOR. (DO ANY OF YOU ALL DRINK, TAKE SOME "PILLS", ETC......???????)
I DO NOT SMOKE & NEVER HAVE!!!!!!

BRAD DOES NEED TO QUIT.
HOWEVER NOW IS NOT THE TIME TO DO IT BECAUSE OF THE STRESS HE IS UNDER!!!!

MY GOD, GIVE HIM SOME TIME TO QUIT.
PEOPLE GAWKING AT PEOPLE WHO ARE GREIVING NEED TO GO STRAIGHT TO HELL!!!!!!

78. Why some posters don' t think that other people cannot favor Brangelina?

Can we agree to disagree here?

There is no need to go criticising the people who don't like what these two have done in the past.

This is a blog. Its for chatting and stating ones opinion.

81. How Angelina handled her mothers cancer and her death is HER business and I find it appalling that anyone here would challenge that. Was she supposed to be in her mothers face for the past 8 years or did her mother want her daughter to live her life? I think the latter. As far as Brad smoking a cigarette, that is HIS choice. You all are nothing but a bunch of friggen vulchers just waiting to attack someone. Friggen losers. Get a life.

82. Your arguments don't make since, so no we cannot agree to disagree.

83. Why bring Jennifer Aniston into this discussion. She is minding her business and living her life yet her name has to be mentioned.

Jennifer is doing fine and does not need Brad Pitt. He is probably thinking about the good times he's had with with his ex-wife. When you walk away from your wife/husband guilt rides you for the rest of your life. It does not just go away. You think about the person every day. I think Brad Pitt ponders his actions and wishes he could change the hands of time. This is the fact about divorce and break ups.

Watching his running from place to place just makes one wonder if he is truly happy with his new life. Raising young kids and drifting from place to place sure takes a toll on a person.

I am very proud of Jennifer and hope to God that she will find true happiness one day. It will take time but she will have her day in the sun.

84. No. 13 Good Grief: Cigarette smoke may not cause Ovarian Cancer but it is the leading cause of lung/mouth/tongue cancer as well as heart disease. What's the difference which cancer it causes...cancer is always horrible no matter what part of the body it attacks. I am surprised that anyone still smokes knowing all the health risks and especially when you have children. It not only sets a very poor example but second hand smoke is as deadly and can cause the children great harm in the long run. I thought they were sensible parents...guess I was wrong. We won't even mention Britney who also smokes and has two little ones...that's for another blog!

OMG.. TALK ABOUT PROJECTING your own feelings on other people. ARE YOU KIDDING ME? He's sitting there thinking about Aniston? He's moved on in a BIG way, three kids in two years, happier than ever, doing stuff he always wanted to do, having a family he always wanted. There is a reason he left Aniston-he didn't love the frigid, self-centered b**. Aniston fans are truly demented.

86. Somebody sounds a little scorned.

Both my parent's smoked at one time and I never thought about smoking cigarette's. Cigarette's never appealed to me.

The reason Jennifer Aniston's name was even mentioned is because you guys clearly are making those senseless arguments because Angelina and Brad are together.

Jennifer is pretty lame compared to Angelina, why would Brad want her back? Angelina like's to do different things, she doesn't do everything that most hollywood stars do such as shopping, she tries to set her own trend.

Angelina also has a good heart and she won Brad over. He is obviously very in love with her being that he stopped shooting his film to grieve with AJ. He adopted both of AJ kid's and they created a child together. He shows her great support as well as she shows him support.

Hopefully, JA will find someone that treats her well.

87. The fact that BP has stood by AJ in her darkest hours is so examplary . She must feel so must gratitude for his love . All of you haters who seem to think that BP rues the day he left JA are really stupid . Why would he want to go backwards ? JA gave him nothing to remember or be proud of . She did not inspire him in the least . He has been quoted a having the opposite impression of AJ . He has opened his eyes to the world and has grown as a human being . Why on earth would he want lconsiderably less ? I think that it is awesome that he loves AJ so much and she him . It's like a real life love story that we are privileged to kind of see it beginning . They are beautiful people inside and outside . I hope and pray that AJ and her family gets past this horrible grief and lives life to the fullest .

88. This is a blog and we are all entitled to our opinions. In addition, based on our lives, past and present we present our point of views accordinglyl. Nothing wrong with opinions. Its when we get verbally abusive with one another.

Do you all think that Brad Pitt has forgotten about Jennifer Aniston. Why do you think that Anjelina Jolie state in her Vogue interview that she was his best friend. Not only was she his best friend, she was his wife for better of for worse. We do not forget our past. We carry it around every day. Believe it or not.

Yes I am talking based on personal experience. Isn't this how we all form our opinions/views?

I am a Jen fan. And for your infomation I did not even support Jennifer initially but my conscience leads me to be on her side. It is obvious that AJ had to have Brad Pitt by all means. Wake up people.

Such is life.

89. Jolie is a good daughter.
She looked after her mother, both financially n emotionally.
Betrand stayed in a top hotel, and did not die in a hospice, alone.

90. Well Brad's in happier place in his life now. The past is the past and will be the past. No need to dwell on it.
