Brad Pitt -- Ask Nicely and Ye Shall Receive

Brad Pitt got his wish ... sorta.


A day after he told photographers in NYC to back off while snapping pics of him with his children -- suggesting they use a telephoto lens -- Pitt was swarmed while out with son Maddox. The paps (and many random passersby) took a few steps back when Pitt requested it, giving Brad and Mad their space as they ordered some hot dogs from a street vendor.

As they hopped into their waiting SUV next to the cart, a smiling Pitt told a few of the cameramen, "Much better with the kids, you guys are better!"

31. Donna,
It sounds like they aren't just vultures waiting for a story to happen any longer. When did getting a hotdog with your kid become news??? Sounds like they make the story happen, whether it exists or not. Prince Harry in his interview with Matt Lauer last month said that it doesn't matter who he really is, or what he really does. The press will portray him the way it best suits there needs. He also stated how difficult this life was on all of his friends who were not celebrities, and the price they had to pay for it . (Diana paid the ultimate price)
What price do these kids have to pay? It is something to think about.

32. "We created the, uh, the uhhhh hurricane. Now we gotta
build uhh, uhhh a house". Hey Babes, Chocolate City thanks you!
Maybe if you two serial cheaters, who wouldn't know a marriage vow if it hits ya
in the kisser, would stop flying all over the freakin' world then
maybe, just maybe, I could take you seriously. I hear that sailboats
travel because of the wind. That's a green way to travel. You and
flubber lips Angie can provide all the hot air that's needed to sail
the boat. Just talk about yourselves, that'll keep ya movin'!

34. So if you want to be left alone don't go to Times Square which is the heart and center of NYC. There are hot dog carts everywhere so why go to the most congested and busiest part of the city? To be seen that's why.
Poor Brad had to patronize the paps.

37. Why is getting a hot dog news worthy? Why don't these people try staying home for about a month....... wherever that might be!? I'm so tired of seeing their faces. NEXT we'll be seeing Pitt picking up the kids when he has visitation rights.... every other saturday! These two will unfortunately never go away. Everyone is waiting for the split. Then the media will play that up for another 2 years! It just never ends. This is why people are starting to hate them. It's just overkill at this point. I thought Brad was off building homes in New Orleans? NOW they're in NY??? what for? Wasn't there a time when Brad actually stayed home with the kids and she went on location alone? What happened to those days?

38. POOR MADDOX!! they should move somewhere isolated, or where they're unknown for the sake of their kids... :(

39. I think ol Ang is giving him a hard time about living in the states. The kids! The press!
She has to find it hard to be a saint here although there are many programs and needs of the poor she could attend to I think the farther away from Brads social circles and family she is the happier she is.
I find her a very self centered person inspite of her charity work. He wanted it, he got it. He sold his manhood for a child.

You have it right, Truth and logic.

Also were the Photogs running behind the SUV?
Brad must have seen them and then stopped? How did that work?

Something is wrong with this story Donna# 30.
If the couple was so miserable why would they stop right in the smack middle of New York to get cart hot dogs!!!

42. rofl...... Like it matters what hot dog stand they stop at. If Brad wanted to patronize the Paparazzi all he'd have to do is step out of the hotel. They wait in droves, then follow you where-ever they go. yes Jackie, you must be sooooo right with your logic. maybe, just maybe Oh I don't know one of there kids was hungry. Are you a parent or responsible for a child? Sometimes there wants / needs take precedent to yours. Your logic is as non existant as this story.

43. The facts are most Celebrity's do not need the press waiting for something to happen or creating the story about them. We have many examples of Celebs lately giving us plenty to read about and all was created by the celebrity themselves.
Prince Harry who I do like was a party hound and made his own publicity while doing so and when wearing a Nazi uniform. To say the media is to blame for manufacturing all the story's is silly. I do agree the media needs to give The Pitt children space, But the parents
( not only Celebrity parents) must also do their part in avoiding unsafe situations as well.

# 30 Donna said in her post she saw not only Brad but Jolie with their kids in the SUV that day they had to have cart dogs.
I find it odd they would drive around in a SUV without tinted windows. Even I have tinted windows and I only play a celebrity on the internet.
