Angelina Jolie Life-Sized Doll An Armed Robber?
Angelina Jolie, Lara Croft Doll Leads To Stick-Up - A life-size Angelina Jolie, Lara Croft doll got a man by the name of David Williams into a bit of a pickle recently - and it involved police holding a gun to his neck over Miss Croft!The Sun UK is reporting that police in Britain stormed into Williams' home after they had received complaints from him over some prank phone calls. Wait - it gets way better!
The cops entered Williams' house - where they saw the $2,000 silhouette of the Angelina Jolie/Lara Croft life-sized doll in the darkness! If you guessed that the cops thought Miss Croft was an armed robber and immediately reacted, you guessed right, but they also reportedly thought Williams was a crook!
The cops held Williams at gunpoint after wrestling him to the ground. According to Williams, "The back-up cops burst in through the back door and knocked me to the ground. One jabbed a gun in the back of my neck and said, 'All right - where's the gun?'"
"I said, 'I don't have one.' They weren't happy and searched the house."
"They took me in for questioning, and brought the mannequin with them. They must have soon realized what had happened because the PC who called for help was getting a lot of stick."
"I can't believe the police could be so stupid."
A spokesman for the police said: "An officer can never take things at face value." What a hoot! (SOURCE)

Is Graber a new friend of Brangelina?
Celebrity blogs and news sites this week are flush with pictures of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie in Prague, where Jolie is filming a movie.
One place they've been spotted with their four children is the grounds of the U.S. embassy in Prague, near the U.S. ambassador's home. Two of their children are reportedly attending a kindergarten housed within the embassy compound.
The U.S. Ambassador to the Czech Republic...that would be former Republican Party of Wisconsin chairman Rick Graber. Does this mean that Graber is rubbing elbows with the supercouple and their children?
The Hollyscoop blog noted, 'The U.S. Ambassador in Prague was even spotted in the crowd waiting for his chance to catch daddy Brad picking up Zahara and Pax Thien."(SOURCE)

Jesse Metcalfe Disagrees with Brad's Choices
Jesse Metcalfe believes Brad Pitt was unfair to let his interest in design override everything else when it came to selecting furniture for his home with ex-wife Jennifer Aniston.Before checking himself into rehab last week, Jesse told OK magazine: “I read an interesting interview with Jennifer Aniston once in which she said that Brad Pitt was into interior design and furniture but that it drove her crazy that there wasn’t a comfortable sofa in the house.”
“I would never do that. I like the things I like, but if it meant my woman would be more comfortable in my house if she made some changes, then change away.”

Did Brad Romance A Gangster's Girlfriend?
Londonnet.com is reporting that fourteen years ago while on a trip to Glasgow, Brad had a fling with Jillian Lamb a local barmaid. Apparently they were "just having a laugh" until Jillian's gangster boyfriend caught wind of the affair:
The pair took a bath together, but she insists there was no sex:
When Brad was at the UK premiere of Snatch in 2000 he reportedly told a reporter about the "lovely girl" he met in Glasgow:
"Brad had just shot Interview with the Vampire in Britain with Tom Cruise and had come to Glasgow to check out the architecture.
"Someone in the bar said he'd been in some cult movies, then I recognised him from Thelma and Louise.
"Brad spoke to me a few times during the day. And at closing time we decided to head on elsewhere.
"He was just a lovely guy, who wasn't pushy or full of himself. I felt really flattered because he could have chosen anyone but he went for me."
The pair took a bath together, but she insists there was no sex:
"We had a bath together and he massaged my legs and feet. Brad asked in a really gentlemanly way if we could make love but I said no.
"Although we ended up in bed, I insisted on keeping my knickers on. We just kissed and cuddled."
When Brad was at the UK premiere of Snatch in 2000 he reportedly told a reporter about the "lovely girl" he met in Glasgow:
"We were making out and getting on well and I didn't know there was a problem until a guy came up and asked if I knew who I was messing with. I got out of there and really felt quite glad to be alive!"(SOURCE)

Have Brad Pitt all to yourself -- sort of
OK, so you’ve had a crush on Brad Pitt since “Thelma and Louise,” but you thought you might be just a bit, uh, old to hang a life-size image of him on your wall ... in his skivvies.Well, not anymore. Now you can suspend a huge, moving, breathing portrait of Brad for all to see – for you’ll be bringing cutting-edge art into your home: Acclaimed experimental theater artist Robert Wilson, renowned for his avant-garde design work and spectacles such as Philip Glass’ opera “Einstein on the Beach,” is finally bringing his vision to the masses.
Wilson has collaborated with Voom HD Networks on Voom Portraits, a series of more than 30 video works, to be displayed on high-definition screens – little dramas starring famous actors such as Pitt, Isabella Rossellini (as a blond-wigged, Japanese manga character), Wynona Ryder and Robert Downey Jr., as well as other celebrities, such as Princess Caroline of Monaco.
At first, the video portraits – ranging from two to 15 minutes – look like stills, but then the subject may blink an eye, move a foot, or, in Pitt’s case, slowly raise gorgeously muscled arms to shoot a water pistol at the watcher’s face.
Voom TV, available through the DISH Network, has 15 channels, including Gallery HD, says Ali Hossaini, the Voom executive who commissioned Wilson to do the portraits and wanted to have a “twist” on that fine arts channel, “where we actually would make a television into art,” he says. For the privilege of working with Wilson, he says, the actors and other subjects worked for free.
Voom will put Portraits on Gallery HD sometime in the fall, along with a documentary showing how Wilson made them. Then, if people want to record the Portraits, they can decorate their walls with Wilson’s art.
Here is the Video Portrait:

Wanna check out Brad Pitt's pants?
Forget all the red carpet gowns and tuxes. The real prizes of the ‘07 awards season are the costumes worn in nominated films. And that’s what you’ll see – up close and personal - at a new exhibit, “And the winner is” co-hosted by The Envelope and the Hollywood Museum. Major kudos to Tom O’Neil, The Envelope’s ultimate awards expert, for working closely with (okay, maybe even begging and cajoling) Disney, Fox Searchlight, Miramax, New Line, Paramount, Paramount Vantage Sony, Sony Pictures Classic and Warner Bros to make this exhibit happen.
The exhibit features costumes from ten current Oscar-nominated films such as those worn by Brad Pitt, Cate Blanchett, Rinko Kikuchi in “Babel” as well as the red dress Adrianna Barraza wears in the movie’s joyous wedding and tragic desert scenes. Also curtsy-worthy: outfits from "The Queen" worn by Helen Mirren and Sylvia Syms (as the Queen Mum). Worth saluting: Ken Watanabe's “Letters from Iwo Jima” military garb; Idi Amin's (aka Forest Whitaker) general’s uniform from "The Last King of Scotland." Worth a second glance: Penelope Cruz's “Volver” attire; Scarlett Johansson and David Bowie's outfits from "The Prestige"; Kate Winslet's clothes from "Little Children." Worth singing about: the fabulous flashy dance duds worn by the Step Sisters' in "Dreamgirls."(more)

Quote Of The Day
Christian Cartoonist Doug TenNapel:“There really are Christians who are thinking, ‘If we could just save Brad Pitt, then God could really do wonders in Hollywood.’ That’s what God really needs, you see. God needs Brad Pitt in order to be taken seriously. More people would listen if God had Brad Pitt on his side.”

Painting Of Angelina Jolie Hovering Over Wal-Mart Check-Out Line Draws Notice
A North Carolina artist intrigued by the public obsession with celebrity has found herself feeding that obsession with a painting of actress Angelina Jolie as the Virgin Mary hovering over a Wal-Mart check-out line.
Kate Kretz has painted for 20 years but none of her previous work has garnered the attention given "Blessed Art Thou," showing this weekend at Art Miami, an annual exposition of modern and contemporary art.
The painting has gotten much attention from celebrity web sites and blogs. Since the buzz started, the number of daily unique visitors to Kretz's own blog has jumped from an average of 30 to 15,000 on Wednesday.
"My intention was to ask a question and get people to think," Kretz said in a telephone interview Friday from Miami. "I had no idea so many people would be asking a question and thinking."

Angelina Jolie hallucination led to death
A MAN stabbed his father to death because he thought he was going to harm actor Angelina Jolie and her unborn baby, a court heard yesterday.
Daniel Carl Ryan, 31, was found not guilty of murder because of mental impairment.
The Supreme Court heard Mr Ryan had had schizophrenia for nearly a decade but had not taken his medication for up to a month before the February 23 attack.
Prosecutor Colin Hillman, SC, said Mr Ryan's sister woke to loud banging noises about
7am and found him attacking their father with a kitchen knife in the hall of the Hillside home.She fought her brother off, but Reginald Ryan died from two stab wounds to the chest before ambulance officers arrived.
The court heard Mr Ryan ran across the road to a neighbour's driveway, where he was arrested.
Mr Hillman said psychiatrists who assessed Mr Ryan found he was having auditory and visual hallucinations.
The court heard Mr Ryan told a hospital nurse he had to act because his father was "going to hurt someone important".
When the nurse asked who, he said, "Angelina Jolie".
The court was told Mr Ryan thought Jolie's baby was Jesus and said he was ordered to kill his father, the devil, to save them both.
Justice John Coldrey said it was a tragic case and Mr Ryan's sister Kellie should be commended for the courage she showed on the day.
He found Mr Ryan not guilty and will make orders that he remain under supervision in a psychiatric centre after he gets reports early next year.
