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."

91. He's outside, sitting in a corner of a balcony, isolated from those inside, considerate of others. He's a longtime smoker, he's quit and started again a couple of times, he's now in the midst of undergoing one of the most stressful life situations anyone can be in. He looks as sad as one can be, as anyone who has posted here would be, sorting out the bits and pieces of the life of a loved one. He' s with his Angelina, giving her his support as he has now done for a couple of years. Peace people peace, give Brad some peace. Save your snide and bitter remarks for another occasion, and hope that you don't find yourself in a similar situation anytime soon.

92. Halleey be, please, move on and stop dwelling on whatever happened in your life--it will do you a lot of good. Marriages and relationships fall apart all the time and usually because of incompatibilites between the spouses, not because someone gets "stolen" by someone else. People almost never regret moving on either--those who have doubts and still love their spouses stay married and work on it. Brad has demonstrated that he's completely devoted to AJ and the family they have together is the most important thing in his life--he interrupted filming to be with AJ. They share similar goals in life, something he never had with JA.

94. I think people need to leave them alone at a time like this. Especially people that say she should not have been traveling around the world helping with Charties. This is not something that a sick person would want her child to do is to stop everything until they die. People need to know that life is a gift and that as long as you stay in communication with them then you are perfectly fine. But nobody can stop somebody from doing what they loved and Angelina loved her mother dearly along with her children and Brad.
So please let them greive in private and us go about are business as being the nosey ones and the people with all the opinions that do not even count,.

Angelina and family are prayers are with you and we know that this is a hard time for the family but believe me it will get a slight bit better as time goes on but there will always be those sad days when tears will fill your eyes and you just want to talk or hug your mom. So please be strong that is probably what she would want for you. Take care and peace out.

95. fyi angelina got a phone call that her mother was dying while she was in new orlans she took a flight there on Saturday night & the mother died very early morning on sunday, angelina was there for 4 hrs by her mother's bed while she died thats it no longer, just 4 hrs, and it was reported on access hollywood & extra many times that her mother's condition was getting worse by the day & I'm sure with the technology nowday she knew exactly when she was going away.... and as far as the mother asking her to "live her life" come on get serious... if god forbid my mom was dying & asked me to live my life I would have ignored instead i would have spend every last moment by her side taking care of her needs, istead of just spending millions of dollars buying mansions in every corner of the world

96. i have no respect for jolie, we all know about cancaer, her mother was dying and she should have been at her side, and what was the poor woman doing in a hotel room, was jolie's dad there, she should have made up with him years ago, as if she is perfect, maybe a perfect whore....
pitt was pondering over what a mean thing how he left anniston, and how he can dump jolie, for cate blancard, mark my words this will be the next scandel.and jolie seems the type if this happens, she will be a woman scorned and nevaer let him see his children.

97. Angelina, Brad & family, & James Haven (her brother),

Please do not pay attention to all these haters who are talking sh*t.
They do not know, and are running off at the mouth.

For all of you JA fans; did you ever think Brad wanted more out of life?
All I see JA do is shop, eat, get her hair, nails,done etc....
and walk up and down the beach either with her dog, or BFF Courtney.
I believe that when Brad met Angie, she showed him a whole other world
(literally). I would love to be rich and help people; than to cry over a broken fingernail.

Brad, Angie, & family, & James Haven,
You have my families sincerest condolences. This is going to be a hard road.
The thing that helped me was instead of me wanting my Mom back (which I do); I have to remember how much she suffered in pain.
When you REALLY LOVE SOMEONE, YOU DO NOT WANT THEM TO CONTINUE TO SUFFER. I WASN'T JUST "SAD", I WAS DEVASTATED!!!
DON'T WORRY, YOU WILL GET TO SEE YOUR MOM AGAIN SOMEDAY IN A MUCH BETTER PLACE. I ASSURE YOU.

ANGIE, I'M GLAD YOU HAVE BRAD FOR SUPPORT. WHEN YOU GO THROUGH SOMETHING LIKE THIS, YOU HAVE TO HAVE A VERY STRONG SUPPORT SYSTEM.

OUR THOUGHTS & PRAYERS ARE WITH YOU AND YOUR ENTIRE FAMILY!!!

98. It is amazing how views and opinions can differ. This topic is a verg good example of how people look at the world and the trials and tribulations that each of us face in our daily lives.

Some of us look at the glass half empty while some of us look at the glass half full

Not everyone likes how this couple conducted their lives and created animosity among others.

Those of your who say to forget the past, please stop. You don't have any right to tell others what to remember and what to forget. Stick to your claim but let others vent all they want. This is a public blog and is meant for adversity and opinions. We all can't agree in harmony all the time. We all react to things that happen in our lives based on our past reaction and knowledge of the world.

Nuff said.

#98...Audrey Rose,

I don't have any respect for you, unleashing your venom on here.
And I seriuosly doubt Angelina could give a damn about you either!!!!
Who told you to be the judge of people. We are talking about a death here;
(Remember?) What the hell do you know about "making up" with Jon Voight?
Were you involved in their father/daughter relationship?
Some relationships are "toxic" and very draining to be around.
It sounds like you are one of those "toxic" people.
You don't even know what was going on in their family, so how can you sit there and type such horrible sh*t???????

Damn, can't Brad Pitt step outside, sit down, and smoke a cigarrette without all of you coming up with wild ass stories!!!!!
Have you ever thought that Angie, Brad & the family are greif stricken????
Have you been greif stricken??? Well guess what Miss Know It All Audrey,
When you are greif stricken, you have a very hard time sleeping;
and then when you do, you might dream of that person.
Don't you think that would tiring??? Believe me it is. Been There.
He is a grown adult who can do what he wants with whomever he wants;
just like the rest of us.

Have you ever thought that "YOU" are the whore?????
If the shoe fits, wear it BITCH!!!!!!!!!!!!!

Bee,

Guess What? Buzz, Buzz, the reason people are on here telling you enough already, is because it doesn't do any good to live in the past.
"If you are driving down the road of life and constantly looking in the rearview
mirror, you will end up in the ditch".

101. Why is there such a strong reaction to this topic. We can't all agree all of the time.

Relax, breathe and exhale.

Let other opinions be.

102. Hey,, if you DON"T smoke how would you know what it's like? I don't smoke,but I realize how strong of an addiction it is. At least he's smart enough NOT to do it around his family. Concern about cancer??? Who knows what is safe anymore? There are plenty of people who never take a hit & end up with it anyways. My advice? don't start and get informed. My heart felt condolences to the Pitt-Jolie Crew

103. GONE: State your case all you want. Now you are expecting others to end up in the ditch because they don't agree with you.

Do you expect every poster on this blog to have the same minds and views? I don't think so.

We are all not going to have the same reaction to this topic.

Relax, breathe, exhale.

Let others be.

Bee,

It is obvious that all you want to do is stir the sh*t.

You can sit here & argue all day.

Get A Life.

105. Angelina will have to live with this the rest of her life. I wonder how she goes to sleep at night. She steals others boyfriends and husbands, disses her father, neglects her dying mother, yet she is saying, "Look at me! I am a loving, caring, charitable person and please put my picture and my good deeds out there for all to see!" ACTIONS SPEAK LOUDER THAN WORDS!! She and Brad both make me sick to my stomach.
