Sudiegirl sez: Why did I include these unflattering pictures of Brad and Angelina? Gee...I guess so I wouldn't get distracted about making the usual sarcastic comments. As you've read in previous entries, Brad Pitt has been voted "Most Likely Candidate for Sudiegirl wanting to be trapped in a vat of Ben and Jerry's Chubby Hubby Ice Cream With" (sadly, he is not aware of this distinction) and Angelina Jolie is probably one of the few females that could make me rethink - albeit briefly - what "team" I want to play on, if you know what I mean. Therefore, in order for me to be completely snotty and critical of the Hollyweird scene, I have to look at these pictures and reflect on the fact that they're products in this article. And I'm like Ralph Nader, ready to criticize (but I refuse to eat Grape-Nuts for breakfast afterward...they're gross. Like eating kitty litter.) ANYWAY...let's get this party started!


Brad and Angelina's Dino Detour
By Sarah Hall 33 minutes ago

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie took a trip back in time over the weekend. (You mean when Brad Pitt had that guest shot on "Growing Pains"?)

The Mr. and Mrs. Smith costars toured a dinosaur exhibit at a Canadian museum Saturday night, accompanied by Jolie's children, Maddox, 4, and Zahara, 7 months. (Hey, at least it's educational...)

Pitt is currently stationed in Calgary prepping for his upcoming movie The Assassination of Jesse James, which begins shooting Monday. Jolie has been stationed in New York for the past two weeks working on The Good Shepherd with Matt Damon and Robert De Niro. (I'll be trying to go to both of those, although I haven't even seen "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" yet, the movie that "started it all".)

According to the Calgary Sun, Pitt called ahead to see when the least obtrusive time to visit the museum would be and was told to drop by after 6 p.m. when there would be fewer dino enthusiasts around. (That makes sense...Brad always seems to me to be a considerate guy in terms of that kind of thing. But that's not why we're reading this, ARE WE????)

"Brad phoned to ask about the accessibility of the museum and how easy it might be for him to visit unnoticed. They did not ask us to close the museum or for an after-hours visit or any special treatment," Wendy Taylor, spokeswoman for the Royal Tyrrell Museum, told the paper.(That's cool...most stars wouldn't do that. They just show up and expect everyone to clear out so they can tour the museum completely uninterrupted...like...normal...people?)

Pitt, Jolie and the kids arrived at around 7 p.m. and stayed for about an hour, Taylor said, adding that Maddox was "enthralled" by the T-Rex exhibit. (You know, at least whenever Brad is seen with Angelina, a majority of the time the kids are included! I'm really surprised at that. Plus, Brad is not out of touch as to what kids would like...I have yet to see a little boy turn down dinosaur stuff. Hell, I'm in love with a MAN who doesn't turn down dinosaur stuff!)

The group was trailed by two bodyguards and a museum staffer and were reportedly left alone for the most part. (That's cool...)

"The other people in the museum at the time were very respectful--no one approached them on their own," Taylor said. (That's also interesting...)

However, while the A-listers browsed the bones, word of their museum visit spread quickly and a cluster of eager fans formed outside. (Is that the same as a "gaggle" or is it bigger?)

"The only unfortunate thing was that word leaked out and quite a crowd collected outside the main entrance, so we had to find an alternate exit for them," Taylor said. (Intrigue at the dinosaur exhibit! Film at eleven. However, Jolie has played Lara Croft twice...doesn't she have any leftover gadgets from the movies?)

Pitt and Jolie shopped in the gift store and bought toys for the kids before leaving through the museum's Learning Center exit. (Take note for future reference, celeb stalkers of Canada.) (Gee...don't hire this reporter to work for the CIA or the FBI! She couldn't keep a secret in a hermetically-sealed room!)

"They are both very down-to-earth people and most appreciative," Taylor said. "Our staff members were very impressed at how nice they were." (You know, I wonder how many stars are really nice like they are as opposed to Bobby Brown/Whitney Houston or other stars you hear of that throw hissy fits...)

It's just the latest in a series of getaways for Pitt and Jolie, who have been spotted together in locations including the English countryside, a sandy African beach, an Ethiopian orphanage and Lake Havasu City, Arizona. (Again, is it me or are most of the pics with him, her and the KIDS? I mean, she could easily stash them away with a nanny so she and Brad could get jiggy with it or something, but she doesn't. Wonder what that means?)

Meanwhile, Pitt's ex, Jennifer Aniston, recently broke her silence in an interview in the September issue of Vanity Fair, admitting she was "shocked" when she saw the photos of Pitt and Jolie on their beach retreat in April. (Yeah...that would suck, I agree. However, hasn't she had photos of herself being the "victim" of face-sucking by Vince Vaughn? Wonder how Brad feels about that? Or for that matter, David Schwimmer?)

"The world was shocked, and I was shocked," Aniston said. "I'd be a robot if I said I didn't feel moments of anger, of hurt, of embarrassment." (Yeah...I agree too. That is the one thing that doesn't appeal to me about being a celebrity...I mean, it's almost as though people wait to see your life go up in flames and whether you'll rise like a phoenix or sizzle like bacon. What a life, huh?)

Pitt and Aniston formerly filed dissolution papers Friday. Under California law, their split becomes final Oct. 2, six months after Aniston filed for divorce. (Not sure when mine becomes final, but that's just how it goes, right?)

Sudiegirl's final opinion?

Oh well...this is how it is. I just hope (and I know this sounds hokey) that everyone just goes on with their lives and hopefully will find happiness. And to me, that's the most important. Plus, Angelina needs to get Brad hooked up with her humanitarian work...I think it'd be good for him, don't you?

Altruistaically yours,
Sudiegirl
