The Dishing Diva

Actress Angelina Jolie said she would ‘love to’ work with Brad Pitt again in the future.

The 35-year-old star met the actor on set of the 2005 movie Mr and Mrs Smith, in which they played a warring couple.

Jolie admitted she would like to star in another movie with her partner, but so far they haven’t found the right script.

She said to Vanity Fair magazine: “I’d love to [work with him again]. We’ve talked about it. We’d have to figure out who’s going to watch the kids, but it’s really about finding the right thing, because we’ve looked.

“When you’re a couple, there are certain things people don’t want to see you do.”

Asked about a Mr and Mrs Smith sequel, she said: “People have tried. And it’s strange: we do have kids in the movie? We’ve thought about that, but it becomes personal now that we actually have kids.

“And if we work on it, we pull from our own life, which is funny to us, but you feel strange sharing too much.”

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have reportedly revealed their first designs for a new high-end jewellery line.

The A-list stars have developed the serpent-themed Protector Collection for British jewellery firm Asprey.

All net proceeds will be donated to the Education Partnership for Children of Conflict.

A set of 18-carat white gold cufflinks encrusted with elegant black diamonds and emerald snake eyes will be the first piece to go on sale, priced at $10,000.

A spokesperson for Asprey said: "During Angelina’s first pregnancy she was given a snake ring, to guard her and her unborn child.

"She has subsequently given birth to Shiloh and her twins, Vivienne and Knox, and the symbol has become endowed with great personal importance as a family guardian.”

The snake motif is also featured in a series of pendants, bracelets, rings, a children’s tooth box and a silver egg cup.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have spoken of their devastation at the earthquake in Haiti.

The Hollywood couple have previously visited the troubled country with Fugees star Wyclef Jean – and immediately reached out to him to offer their help in his aid efforts for his homeland.

“We are devastated by the news from Haiti,” Pitt and Jolie said in a joint statement. “We will work closely with our good friend Wyclef Jean to support the humanitarian efforts on the island and help those who have been injured and left without homes and shelter.”

Jean has long been an outspoken campaigner for help for Haiti and immediately rushed into action at news of the earthquake, which is feared to have killed thousands.

He begged for help, saying “idle hands will only make this tragedy worse”, adding: “The international community must also rise to the occasion.”

Superstar couple Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have given a foster care organisation a fabulous Christmas present.

The Hollywood couple, who have three adopted children of their own, have donated just over $100,000 (£62,600) to the American SOS Children’s Villages.

The money will go towards the creation of alternative foster care programmes for children in Florida and Illinois.

Angelina said in a statement: “We have seen first-hand the remarkable job SOS does to raise orphaned and abandoned children and keep families together.”

Brad and Angelina adopted Maddox from Cambodia, Pax from Vietnam and Zahara from Ethiopia.

They have three biological children, Shiloh and twins Vivienne and Knox.

The domestic bliss of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie has inspired a gingerbread-like house in Oklahoma named The Brangelina.

The 4000-square-feet $500,000 house, built near Pitt’s birthplace in Oklahoma City, also features a sculpture titled Brangelina Forever.

The house was designed by a Los Angeles artist known as Xvala. The Brangelina Forever sculpture is a life-size cast of Brad and Angelina in an embrace and is said to contain crushed glass from wine glasses they drank from on their first meeting on the set of Mr and Mrs Smith.

The sculpture will be worked into the ceiling of the novel house’s master bedroom.

The Brangelina is also stencilled with words that represent both Pitt and Jolie, including quotes from Jolie’s tattoos.

The house is for sale with the proviso that the owner must offer honorary ownership to Pitt and Jolie and put them up every time they come to town to visit Pitt’s grandmother.

The statue and the house are part of a documentary titled Domestic Bliss: The Daniel Edwards/XVALA Project by Oklahoma filmmaker Dave Smith.

Quentin Tarantino has revealed how he landed Brad Pitt for his new movie – six bottles of wine and a suspicious "smoking apparatus".

The legendary director says he already had a hunch that he and Pitt would get on great.

But, as a way of making him sign on to star in edgy Nazi-hunting movie Inglorious Basterds, Tarantino admits he got Brad drunk, with a "smoking apparatus" to add to the buzz.

"We kind of had an idea that we would like it," the Kill Bill director said. "Whether this love affair is going to happen, it has to be right. So I wrote this part and thought, ‘I think this is the one’. I flew to France to where he lives and had a big talk."

Told that rumour has it he got Brad drunk, the director stressed: "You have to understand something – Brad lives on a vineyard. I did not get him drunk – it’s his wine! We’re popping rose and we’re knocking it back … and then a smoking apparatus of some sort found its way on the table…

"Brad woke up the next morning and he’s like, ‘Ugggh’ – and he sees the smoking apparatus and starts counting the empty bottles of wine. There were six. That’s how you get the most sought-after guy on Planet Earth. You go to HIS vineyard and let him pop the cork."

Director Quentin Tarantino would not have chosen Daniel Craig to play James Bond.

The star said he would like to have directed Casino Royale – but with Pierce Brosnan as 007.

And he claimed that the only reason it was filmed at all was because of him.

He said: "The reason they did Casino Royale all comes down to me.

"I made it a point, I said I wanted to do Casino Royale. They were already on record as saying the movie was unfilmable but then after I said it and talked about it for a little bit – then the big thing on all the internets was that that was what all the fans wanted to see and so that’s when they said, ‘Oh, maybe it’s not so un-filmable.’"

He added: "Actually if I had done the film, I wouldn’t have done it with Daniel Craig, I would have done it with Pierce Brosnan."

Tarantino also admitted he had a secret guilty pleasure – he loves romcoms.

The star, famous for the violent storylines in his movies, said he likes to go to the cinema to indulge.

He said: "These rom-coms get a bad rap but actually I’ve been a fan of romantic comedies since the 30s – they usually work on wordplay and everything like that, so I actually think I’d be really good at it.

"It is a guilty pleasure. I used to find it hard to actually go to the movies by myself, you want to have a date with you so you have an excuse to go."
