Angelina: Brad Is "a Real Man in All Things That It Means"

Alrighty, then!
Six years on -- and with six kids in tow -- Angelina Jolie is hotter than ever for her man Brad Pitt.
"I am very lucky with Brad," Jolie, nearly 36, tells Britain's The Telegraph in an extensive new interview. "He is a real gentleman, but he is also a real man's man," she gushes of Pitt, 47.

"He's got the wonderful balance of being an extraordinary, great, loving father, a very, very intelligent man and physically he's a real man...in all things that it means," she adds, blushing to the reporter.
"I love being a woman," she said. "I love that I can have children. I love feeling soft, I love being with Brad, I love all the sensitivity and natural emotion."
Pitt fueled new rumors of an impending wedding in a recent interview "(The kids ask about marriage," he said. "It's meaning more and more to them. So it's something we've got to look at.")

But Jolie was mum on that score to The Telegraph. "We are obviously extremely committed to the children and as parents together," the Kung Fu Panda 2 star (who has been married twice before, to actors Jonny Lee Miller and Billy Bob Thornton) said simply. But she shed new light on their decision to have such a huge brood of kids (Maddox, 9, Pax, 7, and Zahara, 6, Shiloh, 5, and two-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.)
"When Brad and I decided to have a large family we decided we’d only do it if we could be really hands-on and take the kids with us, seeing them every day," she explained. "I am always there on weekends, I only ever work a five-day week, and I am often there for breakfast or dinner. When I'm working they come up at lunch."

One of the star's most talked-about new film projects is the lead role in a new film based on the life of Egyptian ruler Cleopatra, to be directed by The Social Network's David Fincher.
"She has been very misunderstood," she said of the historic figure. "I thought it was all about the glamour, but then I read about her and she was a very strong mother, she spoke five languages and she was a leader."

Reports surfaced that the late Elizabeth Taylor, who played Cleopatra in an iconic 1963 film, refused to give her blessing for Jolie's planned version.
"My performance will never be as lovely as Elizabeth's," Jolie said humbly. "We are trying to get into a different truth about her as a pharaoh in history and not as a sex symbol, because she really wasn't. Even this idea of her having many lovers –- it was possible that it was only two. She is very interesting, but she wasn't a great beauty."
Tell Us What You Think
37what about her tattoo ? ex boyfriend name on her private part.
I dislike u Jolie. U R a husband stealer
I have loved Angelina jolie for a long time, she is so awsome! Brad is cool too.I think their good together.
why don't she show us what she means? i also want to see!!!!!!!!!!
Ha ha ha ha! Angelina's interview sounds like an old Enjoli ad from the 70s!!
Um, Erica, they have homes in New Orlean's and L.A. They were both born in America and are U.S. citizens. That would make them American. Don't be bitter just because you can't have homes all over the world. Love this family. They all seem happy. Six years and still going strong. I hope they stand the test of time.
If they get married in some other country, especially an impoverished country, is their marriage even legal in the USA. They are born Americans, but they don't live like Americans or in America, and really aren't American.
I agree, Skankalina, will always be Skankalina.
agree.. real men dont cheat..thats the bottom line!!!
No one loves Brad, more then Brad. Jolie said all this about Billy Bob, concerning the man stuff, had sex with him in the limo on the way to the red carpet. In her acceptance speech spoke about how much she is in love with her brother. She gushed soooo much over Billy Bob it was sickening. When it comes to love, Jolie is a clinger, very desperate for love and attention. Strong business woman and very intelligent but very weak emotionally. Skankalina will always be skankalina. Nothing will ever change that.
Leslie Boyd: Bitter much? I love reading everything about Angelina and Brad, I always saw them together as a couple even before they became one. They just go so well together, not to mention they have been blessed with a huge family something both of them yearned for. Its nice to see people together with the same ideals and life goals, a better match could not be made. Goldie Hawn and Kurt Russell another couple standing the test of time married or not, it doesn't matter! I also love Jennifer Aniston, honest I never liked her with Brad, I see her with someone different like a more conservative but hot actor or just a regular rich professional like a doctor, lawyer, real estate tycoon. I think this would be ideal for her and of course a man that loves pets, cause that is an important quality for people like her (and me!) If something isn't meant to be it is best that it comes to an end sooner than later.... I am glad her and Brad realized this and give them credit for becoming better and stronger people for it, both are now doing so much better career wise and socially. People need to back off and be respectful of adult decisions, everyone has a soul mate and sometimes we have to kiss a few frogs before we find him or her, by the way both Jen and Brad happen to be very pretty frogs. Stop the hate people its not like our tax dollars are supporting them! Love not war.... peace.
You, my dear, are a pig.
I liked her interviews better when she was high on coke, and not the self promoting martyr she has become. Real men don't cheat. They handle their problems, and if they make a mistake they make it up to who they have hurt, and don't repeat it.
I am so sick of looking at these two fakes, and when her Cleopatra comes out, her face and interviews will be all over again. Such skanks. Angelina cheated on her first husband, cheated with a man that was engaged, and became Mrs Billy Bob Thornton much to the fiances surprise, had an affair with Brad, and Brad the phony fake has always been a skank.
I love these two!!!!
Darren Kim Horton- "Nice try" at what? Giving my opinion? I DO NOT think cheating makes a man any less "Real" or bad. How does it? If your husband has a one night stand but is sincerely regretful and up to that point has been a great husband is he then " Bad"? Is all the good negated by one mistake? And if he repents and begs and you choose to end the marriage arent you responsible for breaking up the family and hurting the kids too? What about the vows to be there thru good times and bad? Everything isn't black and white in a marriage or life.
well Darren/Kim ..whatever, must not be human, PERFECT enough to judge others ..wow! EVERYONE has weakness, lets be "real" shall we?? You seriously think he doesn't regret marring JEN and cheating!? Of course he does. Get over yourself! @Laquia - TOTALLY agree! They are promoting their movies, and of course are asked about their relationship and children...bunch o SAD people here!
Why do we have A-list people or B-list people? Does this not bother anyone else? The categorization of people into a gradation of who is more significant or worthwhile or valuable --- that just rubs me the wrong way. [shudder]
Vanessa- just because it happens doesn't make it the norm or right. A real man who loves his wife and honors his committment is not going to cheat. Cheating does make you a bad person..it hurts your significant other, the kids, and the rest of your family. Nice try. Let's be "real" here shall we?
For all you naieve women who think "REAL" men don't cheat i gotta ask what world do you live in? If that's true what's with the divorce rate in the U.S.? Why have soooo many supposed "Good Guys" been busted cheating ( Tiger, countless senators/congressmen and pastors)? Cheating is a flaw of human nature it doen't make you a bad person. Let's leave the judgement up to God.
