Brad Pitt Motorcycle Accident (PHOTOS, VIDEO)

Brad Pitt was driving around Beverly Hills when he lost control of his brand new motorcycle after a close encounter with a member of the paparazzi. The photographer reportedly cut Brad off in traffic.

Pitt then attempted to weave between two cars and his handlebar clipped a parked vehicle. He lost his balance and ended up dumping the bike on its side, just hours after he took possession of the new wheels. Pitt was likely more embarrassed than upset by the mini crash.

Pitt had words with the paparazzo and then walked into the courtyard of a nearby apartment building to get away from gathering photographers – see video below.

He was picked up a short time later, leaving his bike at the curb until another assistant arrived on the scene to load it up into a black pickup truck – second video.

Angelina Jolie Returns to Ethiopia With Zahara

Missy — Wed, 16 Sep 2009 11:30:27 +0000

This was the first time that Zahara Jolie Pitt has returned to her native country of Ethiopia since she was adopted by actress Angela Jolie and actor Brad Pitt four years ago.

Currently the whole Jolie-Pitt clan is staying in Kenya on a United Nations mission. Over the weekend Angie, Zahara and her sister Shiloh crossed the border into Ethiopia.

The reason behind the two day trip to Zahara’s homeland was to keep her up on her culture. There is also a suggestion that Angelina is searching for a place to build a tuberculosis and AIDS clinic that would be in Zahara’s name.

Zahara’s eldest brother Maddox Jolie Pitt already has a similar organization called the “Maddox Jolie-Pitt Project” that aids in helping impoverished children. Maddox was adopted in 2002 and came from Cambodia.

Jen’s publicist has denied those reports and offered a clarification, saying that they were with a group of friends.

Jen recently weighed in on speculation that she and ex-husband Brad Pitt have a strained relationship. “In contrast to what people say, Brad and I have a very cordial relationship. I admire him a lot for what he is doing to help other people and I think he is an extraordinary actor.”

As for whether or not the two have actually kept the lines of communication open…who knows.

Celebrity Quote: Brad Pitt Slams Tom Cruise

Missy — Sun, 23 Aug 2009 12:48:20 +0000

There is nothing better than a little smack talk from time to time between A-list celebrities. Inglourious Basterds star Brad Pitt has been making the rounds on a press tour for his current big screen film and managed to take a few jabs at the Tom Cruise flick Valkyrie.

In an interview with German magazine Stern, Pitt said, “World War II could still deliver more stories and films, but I believe that Quentin Tarintino put a cover on that pot. With ‘Basterds‘, everything that can be said to this genre has been said. The film destroys every symbol. The work is done, end of story…(Valkyrie) was a ridiculous movie.”

So there! He said it, now it’s Tom’s turn…

Brad Pitt and Angelia Jolie Donate $1 Million to St. John’s Hospital

Missy — Mon, 15 Jun 2009 14:05:57 +0000

One thing that you will probably never read in the headlines is that Brad Pitt and girlfriend Angelina Jolie are stingy. These two compassionate celebrities have donated millions to advance many worthwhile causes.

This time, Pitt and Jolie have written a check for $1 million to St. John’s Hospital in Brad’s hometown of Springfield, Missouri. Brad’s brother Doug Pitt is heading up this cause and announced the generous contribution, stating that the money will go towards an endowment fund used to pay for the services of children in need of cancer specialists.

The cancer treatment center at St. John’s Hospital will be renamed the Jane Pitt Pediatric Cancer Center, in honor of Brad’s mother, who also finds this particular cause near and dear to her heart.

The endowment will also fund a new pediatric unit, consisting of ten new units at the hospital based Ronald McDonald House. This expansion will double the existing space at the neonatal and pediatric intensive care unit.

St. John’s is matching the $1 million donation.

Looks like the Jolie-Pitt clan is on the move again. Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have leased media mogul Robert Murdoch’s Centre Island estate, Rosehearty.

Back in January, the Jolie-Pitts leased the $60 million Tudor style mansion, Sassafras. Now it appears they have loaded up the family and checked into Murdoch’s 10,000 square foot, waterfront Federal style house.

The gated and heavily secured estate sits on five acres fronting a 260-foot private beach facing Oyster Bay Harbor. There are 11 bedrooms, 7.5 bathrooms and 7 fireplaces in the main house.

The mansion was put on the market in 2007 with an asking price of $12,800,000. It was later taken off the market and was recently re-listed for $12,800,000.

Brangelina, on Long Island while Angie is shooting the spy thriller “Salt,” pays a whopping $100,000 a month to rent the home.
