Brad Pitt's Biggest Problem Finding a Long-term Partner?

Which of the following would give prospective partners of either sex pause for thought at something serious, even with someone as hot, rich and powerful as BP?

He has six kids

He has a vengeful yet highly thirsty ex with all kinds of rumoured personality disorders and substance dependencies, who is considered improbably beautiful due to multiple facial and body "refinements" and alterations and many, many dumb tattoos. There's good tatts and then there's dumbo AJ ones. Behind only M Fox and the male Beckhams when it comes to dumbass tatts. And she probably pays Brad's staff for dirt on him she can leak to the tabloids and/or use in the never ending divorce

The never ending divorce with said ex. Until custody is settled, he is in a state of flux and under scrutiny

That he was foolish enough to cheat on Jen with AJ, publicly lie about it, have six kids with her and then eventually marry her shortly before being brutally dumped and labelled an abuser after a decade and a half or however long

That he put up with AJ's shit for soooo long and even married her. If she's batshit crazy, what does that make him?

That he went along with AJ dressing Shiloh as a boy, even as an infant

That Maddox wore a Mohawk hairstyle from toddler years to late teens. And Brad didn't stop it

His fame is counteractive to privacy

He's in recovery so pot and booze are OUT

Did I mention he has six kids AND a vengeful yet thirsty ex who won't settle the divorce/custody arrangements?

He should just give up on the kids, they hate his guts and they are teenagers. Let them decide on their own if they want to see him when they are adults.

[quote]they hate his guts

Angie says they hate his guts, but Brad's nieces and nephews post photos of them hanging out with Brad's kids on IG sometimes, so I'm not sure that's true.

Unfortunately he has to worry about PR because of Jolie's constant attacks on him in the press, so he's probably avoiding a real relationship because of that. Can you even imagine? She's pretending to hook up with a huge pop star right now, if he did the same she would be screaming into the phone at the tabloids about it 24/7. If he started dating anyone under the age of 40, constant shrieking about ageism. If he dated a really nice woman who was interested in being a good stepmother and had a good career of her own, Angie would just make up lies.

And if she didn't, the tabloids would. What a fucking headache. No thanks.

He doesn't need a partner. Many people are happy being single and having casual flings. Brad got involved with these women for publicity. His whole career was from sleeping with the right people, men and women. He's a lot more savvy and ambitious than his sweet-natured hick demeanor exudes. Like Gwyneth and Jennifer beforehand. Angelina was from a Hollywood family and also hot which attracted him and he ignored all the red flags. She finally blew up on him and he suffered the consequences of playing with fire.

Weird couple from the start. He seemed too vanilla for her, but yet I have read stories deep on the internet about him involving heroin and Russian hookers, which I believe, and which also indicates a darker side that would have attracted AJ. They both used each other at the start and it ended up going too far and spiraling out of hand IMO. I believe they have hated each other for awhile but stayed together for appearances like Beyonce and Jay-Z. AJ doesn’t seem like a person who would be interested in fucking the same man for 15 years or however long they were together. Lots of mystery shrouding these two and I would be willing to bet we only know 5% of what really went on with them and what is going on with them now.

Brad isn't perfect but he is way more mature and seemed willing to compromise with Angelina who is just petty and nasty. He got blinded by fame and greed and Angie was this beautiful, rich glamorous diva from Hollywood royalty and he wanted her because of that without knowing her. Brad made that mistake and learned "all that glitters is not gold."

Has he abandoned his kids like Tom Cruise or is AJ preventing him from seeing his children?

Jennifer Aniston comes across as vapid and boring. Though she may be nice and diplomatic. She's not a girl-next-door either. She came from a Hollywood family and grew up in NYC and went to LaGuardia. She just has better social skills than Angelina Jolie who has some type of personality disorder.

Brad has a corn-fed, hayseed appearance, IMO. However, Brad & AJ are both freaks. AJ is 2nd-generation Hollywood and has unique & beautiful looks. So, I believe that she told Weinstein to go fuck himself. Brad, though, there were probably 100 actors who were just as good-looking as he was. I believe you've got to be a freak to survive and thrive in that competitive atmosphere.

Even though Brad's a freak, AJ was too much for Brad from Missouri.

B/c it's a man's world, Brad can still date whoever he wants, 50-something w/6 kids. For whatever reason, he has managed to keep it on the DL. Probably still shell-shocked from AJ.

B/c it's a man's world, AJ, even though younger than Brad, will have to go into Sugar Baby territory (like Madonna). She could probably do a Jerry Hall once her kids are all 18+.

R38 That's a pretty popular opinion among guys. She looked gorgeous in the 90s and early 2000s. But her anorexia, drug addiction and plastic surgery distorted whatever natural beauty she had left. Jennifer Aniston maintained her looks though she was never beautiful, more pretty, nice face with a hot body.

R20, it is totally bizarre. Normal 17-year old girls would never hold their mother’s hand while waking down the street. At that point, they are seeking independence and pulling away in order to define themselves and their identities. They are looking at colleges and consuming substances and exploring with their friends. They are selfish, self-centered bitches; that is completely normal development.

If I had to guess, I’d say that Zahara is trying to be the best and the favorite, and does not feel secure enough to push Angelina away, which is (again) a normal and necessary stage in a mother-daughter relationship.

He portrays himself as this cerebral smart person interested in architecture, but then he dated women who were pretty and self-absorbed. Robin Givens, Gwyneth Paltrow, Jennifer Aniston, and Angelina Jolie. He'll never date someone prettier than the women he's already dated. He should marry a similarly-aged, average looking college professor, journalist, or visual artist who could at least offer creative ideas and stimulating conversation. (Didn't he briefly date a college professor last year?)

All of those women were just devices for him to maintain a big career. They used him back, so it was reciprocal. If he dated a non-celeb it would be interesting. His big movie star career is over anyway.

Was Jennifer Aniston unable to have a baby or just didn't want to have kids? She has a better figure, definitely. Totally different body type, though. Angelina's bolt-ons are so prominent that it's hard to tell what kind of body she has. I'd say she has a short torso in comparison to her legs.

Angelina is many things but she will never be boring. I don't think Jennifer Aniston was compatible with Brad Pitt, he seems ambitious and wants meaty roles and critical acclaim. Jennifer is lazy and does easy, low-effort projects for her limited range. She is smart though but clearly does movies for a paycheck. I can see that being a conflict of values.

Maybe the perfect person for Brad at this point would be Tom Cruise. Both divorced, both fathers, both movie stars with similar lives and careers, and I'm sure Brad wouldn't assuming the top role in the relationship. The only issue, of course, would be Brad getting Tom to kick his cult to the curb, but other than that, perfect match.

Jason Priestley was a roommate of Brad's back in the late 80s or early 90s. He claimed Brad was a hayseed from Missouri and still very religious and would try to proselytize to his roommates with handing out Bibles.

by Anonymousreply 57January 23, 2022 1:50 AM

Before he was half of Brangelina, Brad Pitt was a Bible-thumper.

In his self-titled new book, “Jason Priestley: A Memoir,” the former “Beverly Hills, 90210” star writes about his friendship with Pitt in the late ’80s and early ’90s, when both were struggling actors in Los Angeles.

After a Christmas visit with his family in the Midwest in 1990, Pitt threw a small holiday party. All the guys exchanged bottles of booze — “except for our host,” writes Priestley.

“Brad had returned from Missouri with a box of Bibles,” he writes. “There was one for each of us … Brad was so pleased with himself he could not stop smiling.”

Pitt, who had recently wrapped his role in “Thelma & Louise,” was carrying on a secret affair with co-star Geena Davis, Priestly writes.

Jason Priestley was so hot when he was young. The idea of him and young Brad walking around naked in the same apartment is arousing.

[quote] There also seemed to be some hygiene issues and Priestley and Pitt decided to have some fun with the lack of said hygiene. "Just for fun, we used to have competitions over who could go the longest without showering and shaving. Brad always won. Having to go on an audition meant cleaning up, which is what usually put an end to the streak."

Angelina has very little in terms of savings. Traveling by private jet 3x a week with an entourage eats away at your savings. This is why she’s been so aggressive with Brad, dragging out the divorce for six years to get a better settlement. He even had to loan her $8 million.

Don’t feel bad for Brad. He treated Jennifer like garbage, and had the best minds in Hollywood warn him about Angelina.

R52, that’s not true. Jennifer Aniston was very ambitious and was desperately trying to be a film star. That’s one of the reasons cited for the marriage failing. He wanted to start a family, but after Friends ended she kept signing on to film projects. I think the marriage was all but over by the time it ended, but still. I don’t buy that she wanted kids or that it was planted. She’s a multi millionaire, if she wanted kids she would have them.

Not sure he’ll ever marry again after this Angelina fiasco, unless he has an ironclad pre-nup. Hopefully his self esteem as far as Hollywood has improved and he doesn’t have to go for someone from a Hollywood family. He is too old for that anyway. Ironically he did always elevate the women he was with, not vice versa. The one that I think he truly loved is Paltrow. They probably wouldn’t have lasted, but he seemed to really be in love and she has a close knit family. Although, maybe it was more the pedigree. She definitely has/had an air about her and let’s not forget Uncle Steven.

I feel like the people who are calling Brad a hayseed and a hick don't realize that it's only hayseeds and hicks who find Angelina exciting. I'm from Springfield myself and I knew people like her in the 1990s, it's not like there aren't borderline attention whores in Missouri. They wore Hot Topic and dyed their own hair, but they existed. Angelina was just the rich bitch version of that with a big PR machine behind her.

It doesn't surprise me that Brad was still a Missouri Baptist early on in his career, that tracks with his family's obvious need to be movers and shakers in the area. I'd say his family's idea of moving upward is probably more responsible for him always hooking up with women who have roots in Hollywood, than any sort of dumb hick hayseed ideal. A dumb hick would just go for the big tits, someone who is ambitious goes for the established families.

He was 2 or 3 credits shy from graduating college before dropping out and heading to LA. He didn’t have a Johnny Depp type background where mom is a waitress with no dad in the middle of nowhere.

As far as religion, it’s interesting when he was with Jolie he said he because an atheist. Then after breaking up, he reverted back to being a believer. He needs to be his own person and not keep taking on traits of his partners.

I think Jen Aniston has done a magnificent job of curating a public persona of "girl next door", "hot bod", "boring but nice", etc. I suspect that at this stage in her life, she finds her personal life very fulfilling and works to keep some dosh coming in. When she's not working, we don't see or hear from her at all. We don't know anything about her personal life. She's mastered it.

[Quote]He once said Aniston was boring.

It's amazing that men think JA is boring. She has a great social circle and group of female friends. She constantly gives parties and socialzes with her peers. She's a hard worker and people in Hollywood really seem to like her. When Brad and JA were still married there were pictures of them out and about with friends or they would go on vacation with a group of friends. Look at AJ in comparison. She's always surrounded by her kids and takes them everywhere. Have you ever seen her with a group of friends? Just hanging out and enjoying herself? Leaked pictures of her having fun at a birthday or Christmas party? Fact is she's a weirdo and loner who only seems to have business acquaintances and her teenage kids who hang out with her. But I guess being a stable woman with a great personality, friends and social circle wasn't risky and adventurous enough for Midwestern Brad. Where is his social circle? Seems like Brad and AJ have been mostly focused on their family and work when they were still a couple and not much else going on.

I would choose friends and real friendships over this fake charity work shtick and a social circle that mostly consisted of business partners, security and my own kids. If this is boring? So what. Also, is starring in a bunch of Disney flops really a better career choice than JA's rom com resume?

It’s that pathetic coffee commercial , driving his nie somewhere in the Santa Monica mountains, buying that ridiculous bag of coffee where the barista as written BRAD on the bag, and he toots on home , right, after a brief stop in a motorcycle shop (?), once home the coffee beans violently crash into the opening of his exclusive machine (look closely, the machine is labeled Brad), then finally lifts the cup with his veiny muscular forearm delightfully accented by some old hippie leather bracelets * a deep as a Dixie cup look of satisfaction in his surgically enhanced yet still squinty eyes.

* bracelet resembles a “scare um, » popularized by crazed beatle fans like my sister . A simple piece of leather with four knots representing each beatle. The wearer was duty bound to wear it all the time to « scare” “harm » from them and keep them all safe.

I guess somewhere over the years a couple of girls may have lost a couple of knots in the bracelet … RIP John and George

R92, the other thing I noticed about that commercial (didn’t notice the bracelets or the machine’s name!) is that we are shown - in a few shots - the empty table and chairs outside. There’s a long dining table outside of the kitchen where Brad is enjoying his solo cup of coffee. It has many chairs amd could seat his large family, but it’s empty. Brad jets off to town on his motorcycle and comes home to a silent and empty house.

He looks happy

It's disturbing how he changes his personality and looks so much to suit each relationship. There are whole illustrated articles about the phenomenon yet Brad is never accused of being borderline. He also has moronic tattoos.

He does change into whoever he is dating. Brad used to have a circle of male friends and he was really good friends with Melissa Etheridge, probably better he let that go because she is nuts. When he got with Jolie they all disappeared. Etheridge even complained about it. Then he got awful tattoos and started traveling around with the child army. He and Jolie lived in their own bubble. I do find it interesting that she is the one who pulled the plug on the relationship, not him.

I always though Brad was super overrated. I got so sick of the “Omg. He’s the world’s hottest man” nonsense that his PR team would put out. Half the guys at my local gay bar look better than him (when he was younger, not now).

R96, I was just going to mention Melissa Etheridge and her remarks about Brad's disappearance after he got with Angelina. Angelina does apparently have some friends...isn't Mindy Cohn a friend?

I think he was having an outside relationship with another woman. I am sure they've had 3-ways, but AJ was always involved as 1 of the 3. I think Brad went outside the marriage, secretly, and got bonded somewhat with someone else.

By the time they got married, they both seemed unhappy.

That's not borderline. He's just the submissive in his relationship. A lot of people follow whatever their partner wants. If he was borderline he would be threatening suicide or homicide, staging incidents for attention, beating his kids and getting into violent fights.

That photo isn't a good representation R100 because the pic of him and JA is a casual photo on the street, and the one with AJ they're clearly at some sort of event. Did he also dress like AJ in casual settings?

I remember an interview with Robert Redford, who was talking about Brad Pitt. Redford said that there is a physical resemblance between the 2, (there is). They were both on A River Runs Through It. I think Redford played Pitt's father, I think.

Anyway, Redford compared himself to Pitt, said that b/c he grew up in LA, he wasn't impressed with it (LA, Hollywood life), like Brad was. (That's my summary.)

I told you bitches a long time ago, when Pitt first upgraded to Jolie from Aniston that, one day, she'd dump his ass.

I'll reserve commenting on Pitt's reported drinking and Jolie purporting he was abusive to the children.

I do not reserve stating that Pitt's good looks mask a very boring, unexciting personality. Hell, the 10lb bag of powdered cement leaning against the corner of my garage has more charisma than Pitt.

R106 Robert Redford appears briefly at the end of A River Runs Through It playing the older version of Craig Sheffer's character. He also narrates the film as that character looking back at his life.

Brad was and is handsome but he's not beautiful or this god amongst men. He was soap opera handsome when young. He is also mostly a bland actor. He was charming in Thelma and Louise, A River Runs Through It, 12 Monkeys and Fight Club. He looks better today me with age on him and developed some sex appeal in Once Upon A Time in Hollywood. His next role should be an aged gay porn star in the 70s.

After such an excruciating marriage to borderline Angelina, he's got to be scared to death he'll encounter another one.

The only time I ever though Pitt looked like one of his gf's was when Goop cut off her hair for Sliding Doors, as shown in the first pic on R108's link. Her had short hair for a couple of years by then, so he wasn't copying her.

In other pics, like the one with him and Aniston in cargo pants above. Cargo pants were trendy in the early-2000s, among men and women. Even my mom owned a pair they were so ubiquitous and she is hardly a person that follows trends.

R109, I’ve seen that film 10x and Redford didn’t play the older Norman. Redford just narrated and of course directed.

Garrett Hedlund resembles Brad a bit to me, and Benecio Del Toro in younger years does as well..

In my defense, I haven't seen the movie in about 25 years.

Brad Pitt vs. Robert Redford. Redford's more handsome, IMO. Why? Maybe a more chiseled jawline and a better facial expression. Redford appears more intelligent and mysterious than Brad.

Native American men are the only men to me who can pull long hair. Some white guys like Joe Dallesandro pull it out and black guys like Snoop Dogg too.

Brad was gorgeous in Legends of the Fall, with the long hair. But, IMO, he looked dumb, throughout.

Also, Aidan Quinn was so damn beautiful in that Legends as well. It was kind of a wasted role for him to play a simp vis-a-vis Brad (dumb facial expression throughout, gorgeous though).

Legends of the Fall potential but the whole love triangle was boring and I disliked Brad's character. The father, youngest brother and their Native American ranch hand were more interesting. Film was corny in the end.

Johnny Depp was only hot in the 80s with short hair and looking like a wholesome 80s twink. An improved version of Ralph Macchio. Brad was way hotter with short hair or a shaved head around the late 90s and early 2000s. But speaking from a gay male perspective. It seems straight women love long hair on men more.

No worries, R116. It was this guy. That scene always chokes me up.

R122, that was interesting to me too. Aidan Quinn was gorgeous and the fact that his character played second fiddle to Brad’s was puzzling. I guess Tristan was the coveted bad boy. I liked the film, but I didn’t understand why they were all so stuck on Susanna, mainly Alfred who had a ton more options. Brad’s character didn’t look back and just moved on.

As a young gay I related to Fight Club. Then I read the book written by a gay man and Tyler is clearly meant to embody the masculine alpha male that straight men want to be and that gay men want to be with.

Aidan Quinn had creepy eyes in Legends of the Fall and was a boring politician. Tristan had that country boy charm that obviously impressed sophisticated Susanna. The youngest brother was a wimp and I don't even remember his name.

Legends of the Fall is corny, but interesting that some of the biggest stars of the 90s signed up for this. A young Brad Pitt in 2010s would probably only star in Captain America 1-10.

Johnny was hot in Nightmare on Elm Street, Private Resort, 21 Jump Street, Arizona Dream and Cry-Baby.

With long hair he looked unkempt and his beard was always patchy and looked bad. Just like Brad Pitt and Keanu Reeves, the long hair and beard really adds nothing and with them it looks greasy and uncombed. They need detangler, shampoo, conditioner and oil. I noticed gays with long hair tend to take care of it better.

Aidan Quinn did look like he could have been Anthony Hopkins' / Hannibal Lechter's son (Legends of Fall). I still think he (AQ) was super-handsome, though.

There was some gossip on celebrity blog deuxmoi that Brad Pitt was at a private party with Mary Kate Olsen and there was some tension when Lykke Li showed up although BP and LL are apparently just friends. I don't remember all the details, but the weirdest thing about this scenario: who knew BP and the Olsens were friends and hang out together? Also, BP is fucking an Olsen twin? Is Mary Kate the twin that was married to that creepy older Sarkozy brother? Why are these weirdos so attracted to middle aged men/grandpas?

I knew it was bullshit. Isn’t most of that deuxmoi site made up? The story of Brad talking to MK and drinking and smoking weed reeked of bullshit. He’s in a custody fight where one of the central issues is his substance abuse. Doubt he would be stupid enough to publicly drink and smoke weed.

by Anonymousreply 144January 28, 2022 4:44 AM

Mary Kate was probably dating Heath Ledger right before he died. That might have stayed under the radar except that Ledger's masseuse called MK first, instead of calling 911 (when finding Ledger's dead body).

Brad dated Juliette Lewis when she was 16 or 17 and he was 27. MK is not that young, but she appears young and is young compared to Brad. I can believe they've dated.

Then again, it could be unfounded rumors.

by Anonymousreply 145January 28, 2022 4:52 AM

Angelina fans believe it’s a PR distraction because Brad’s child therapists who accused Angelina of PA are being investigated and the court are in her favor and has recently approved of something. It’s sad that everything hasn’t gone Brad’s way, but there is nothing he can do, he needs to let go.
