Angelina Jolie Makes Brad Pitt Her Boy
 |
NAMIBIA – Unable to convince Angelina Jolie to become his wife, Brad Pitt has settled for becoming her boy instead. Mr. Pitt’s transformation from leading man to nanny began on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith nearly two years ago, according to friends of the couple.
“It’s been a gradual process,” said one friend, “but nobody who knows them was really surprised when Brad came out in a Mohawk like Maddox [Ms. Jolie’s four-year-old adopted son, whom Mr. Pitt adopted too.] Brad’s her boy, and he knows it.”
If Mr. Pitt is troubled by such talk, he doesn’t let on.
“I love the woman,” Mr. Pitt, 42, told an NBC (Namibian Broadcasting Company) reporter. “She completes me. When she said she didn’t want to get married, I asked her if she would at least give me a haircut like the one she gives Maddie. I want her to love me the way she loves him.”
In addition to his new haircut, Mr. Pitt has a tattoo, his first, a Buddhist prayer etched on his lower back.
“It’s just like the one Angie has on her shoulder,” said Mr. Pitt excitedly. “It will protect Maddie from harm. I was so thrilled when Angie said I could get a tattoo like hers, though I was hoping she would let me get it on my shoulder like she has.”
Mr. Pitt was also eager to correct the record about Ms. Jolie’s decision to have their biological baby in Africa.
“I totally supported the idea,” he said. “I don’t know how the rumors got started that I didn’t want to come here because of the prevalence of AIDS, tuberculosis, and other diseasesânot to mention the high risk of kidnapping. I’d feel safe no matter where I was with Angie. Besides, she told me that our baby should be born in Africa because it’s the cradle of civilization.”
Mr. Pitt said he didn’t care where Ms. Jolie, 30, wanted to have their baby, as long as she allows him to change its diapers as he does for her adopted daughter, Zahara, 1.
“You know what they say about the hand that rocks the cradle,” said Mr. Pitt.
