Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s “Dolce Vita”
December 1, 2009 by Sherry
I can’t think of a better way to kick of the month of December than to find some beautiful photos of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie leaving “La Dolce Vita”.
Brad and Angelina dined at the restaurant, enjoying a Monday night date night together in Beverly Hills. When you’re dating and don’t have children it’s often a Friday or Saturday night that you use for dining out together. When you have children, you take what you can get!
It seems that Brad was wearing his current “uniform” of dark clothing and his beanie cap. He’s also still sporting the beaded beard, sorry to those of you who can’t stand it!
I don’t personally care for Angelina’s shiny black pants but I love her blouse. We’re so used to seeing her in dark or neutral shades that it was a nice surprise to see that she chose such a vibrant chartreuse color!

My last comment is still under mod. Just so people know, I was being sarcastic.
I should quit reading and posting late at night. I get tired and cranky.
I think those pants probably look great in person, but because they are shiny they reflect the light in an odd way making her look sort of lumpy. I had a pair of satin black pants and I thought they were very flattering, but of course I wasn’t being photographed.
Jah, thanks so much, I really needed a good laugh today. You are so right on.
Oops. Someone did see the message. xD
Just so people aren’t confused, I posted a message really late last night, and I was tired. I can be a real smart ass at times, and I was thinking some people may not realize I was just joking. So I asked Sherry to remove it. (:
I can totally see Brad & Angie renting out a skating rink and demanding the privacy to enjoy it like a “normal” family. How bad would it suck if everytime and everywhere you went outside of your home with your children you were FOLLOWED WITH CAMERAS?
It would take a much much better person than I to handle that with any humor and grace.
They have the money to at least do something like that for a birthday celebration to help make good memories for the kiddo: more power to them!
It is pitiful that they don’t leave this couple alone!!! They are not hurting anyone. I just don’t understand the reason behind the need to bring them down and to end their relationship. I just don’t understand the hatred for Angie. She is the angel of darkness and Jen is the angel of good and right? Is Brad Pitt such a valuable catch? I really think the haters don’t really know the real Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt. It is not that authors right to write a negative book about anyone’s life. In a week all of this will be dead and forgotten. I just wish these negative people would leave them alone. I think it is bothering us their fans more then Brad and Angie. They know how to deal with all of this. I read somewhere from another celeb (think it was Orlando Blown) that when you are at the top there is always someone trying to bring you down. I just don’t see the purpose of this novel. Angie has always been upfront with her life. It really sadden me but it cheers my heart when I see them out together happy. The doomsday squad loses again. I think things like this brings them closer together. I just don’t understand why they keep saying that Angie has a temper and mood swings, etc, I have not read that from any of the people she has worked with or the men that have been in relationships with her. She is always reported to be nice and very smart.
I can so see the similarity to litle Vivienne in these photos of Angie!!!!
And, how very cute to see Brad and Angie holding hands yet again – Brad is Angie’s protector for-sure, eh? It’s fab to see them manage a date together. I agree the shiny pants do look less than complimentary, BUT I bet that if we saw Angie wearing them in-the-flesh we’d think she looked stunning in them!! I’m not sure why it looks kinda bulky around Angies hips, maybe she has tucked the top into the waistband- might’ve been better to have the shirt outside the pants and to have worn a belt . . . . . . who cares?? !! GREAT photos – thanks Sherry!!
Jacqueline, I really agree with that. Vivienne looks so very much like her mama. She will be gorgeous when she grows up, I’m sure. (:
Angelina DOES look a lot like Vivienne in these photos. Similarly, I can see a lot of Shiloh in Brad!
i’ve got so many things to catch up! oh my!
I LOVE Angie’s blouse and the way she look is really classy..
oh well..
and i agree with you guys! Angie and Viv looks so much the same.. i think they are the twins.. haha!
joliepitttfanatic – I absolutely agree with you. Angie truly looks a lot like Vivienne in these pics and there is a lot of Shioh in Brad. The father-daughter duo often have these exact same facial expresions and even their smile is very similar. My prediction is that Shiloh will always remind more her dad than her mum (except that mouth she has obviously inherited from her mum) and Vivienne will be Angie´s little mini-me. Hard to say which one of his parents Knox will look like more when he grows up. Maybe he´ll look exactly like his handsome dad or maybe he´ll be a perfect mix of both his parents. Only time will tell. But no matter what they´ll look like when they grow up the main thing is that they – and their older siblings too – stay healthy and happy and will be raised in a loving environment! God bless the Jolie-Pitts 4ever!
The Brangelina book is getting so much negative feedback. I don’t understand why. If Ian Halperin was so malicious, wouldn’t he have written terrible things about Michael Jackson in his bio? Michael led a pretty unusual life. There were even reports of child molestation. But Halperin refuted those. If he was truly evil, wouldn’t he have pressed the point? Maybe he’s not spreading lies and negativity about Brangelina. The public just receives it that way because it needs to see this couple as absolutely perfect and untainted.
Angelina is the no. 1 thing in entertainment this week according to USA Today. I think that might have something to do with the Brangelina book. I don’t think the bio is so negative that it’s hurting her career. She’s obviously doing well…

Like a lot of Jolie Pitt fans I do not see them as perfect. But I do question the need for the tabloids to paint this couple and Angelina in particular in a relentlessly negative light. For a start the ‘homewrecker’ tag I believe all three parties have gone on record as saying their was no affair and yet Angelina is continually called this. Secondly this is a couple who have gone out of their way to give money and donate their time to charity and yet all the tabloids can do is write stories about how they they are on the brink of splitting up. They have no actual evidence of this, if they did at least one of their sources would go on record. But they don’t they are always unnamed. Maybe Jolie-Pitt fans defend these stars because they find it bizarre a couple with huge humanitarian commitments get more negative publicity than any other Hollywood couple. I find this bizarre when so many people working in the industry have p*ssed away their money on drugs and alcohol. I also find it bizzare that Julia Roberts hooked up with her husband when he was married to someone else but no one calls her and evil homewrecker. And long before Claire Danes found happiness with Hugh Dancy she started a relationship with Billy Crudup whose then girlfriend Mary Louise Parker was pregnant with his child. So no, we don’t see these people as perfect but I for one would like to see a little fairness in the way Angelina is treated compared to other stars. But I don’t know maybe you think Jennifer Anniston’s feelings are more important than Vera Moder’s or Mary Louise Parkers…
As for Halperin he has his eye on the easier money. Jackson fans are known for their adoration and almost religious like devotion to MJ. If you want to talk about fan workship they are in class of their own. It made far more financial sense for him to do a book about Jackson that was not too negative so that fans would by it than focus on the more unsavoury allegations surrounding Jackson.
With Brad and Angelina it is the opposite. They have loyal fans but their is also a huge market of Haters whose hate is mainly based on the lies they read in the tabs and they are will buy and enjoy reading a book that confirms their pre-existing dislike of Angelina. These people claim to be fans of Jennifer Anniston but as I have said before real fans of that actress support her work they don’t harp on about her ex and his current life partner.
Ok so I checked out a site about this book and read a couple of excerpts, here was one:
“Stars will never allow the nanny to be photographed with their kids. . . Sometimes you’ll even have the nanny crouched down in the back seat of a car. It’s quite comical.”
Whats ‘quite comical’ is that he would even write that and expect the public to believe it. I have seen quite a few children out and about with their nannies.
Not all of the fans are fools and think these people are perfect, but at the same time not all of us want to shell out money to read unimportant nonsense.
As I’ve said before, I’m sure there are part truths in there, but a lot is just crap that I don’t care to waste my time reading ( I just did that sadly, and Id like my 10 minutes back). What does her fighting with Brad Pitt and supposedly spreading rumors about Jennifer Aniston have to do with anything? And the pot smoking Brad Pitt story is getting old. I really dont care what this man does with his private life. It has nothing to do with me, thats his business. And yes, that is negativity. Why not write a positive book on them? Why not focus on all of the good these people do with their lives rather than write some silly nonsense on how their kids are chaotic (well yeah, no shit. Their 6 children under the age of 10! I bet their all little hell raisers) I read something about a “source” over hearing Shiloh calling a nanny mom. Oh god, not a 3 year old accidentally calling another woman mom. Angelina must never be there for her. Every child does that, my friends children have called me mommy many times. They all screw up. I sure did, and my mom was around plenty. She was a stay at home mom. Really, who cares. She’s not the first kid to do it, and she won’t be the last.
When I go to the book store I’d like to pick up intelligent literature, not some dug up dirt and garbage thats really just dragging another human beings name through the dirt. Thats unnecessary, and there are plenty of other ways to make a buck in this world.
Even though I don’t support books like that, I am very well aware of the fact that even negative attention is still attention and it does help keep these two in the public eye… thus helping their causes stay alive. Which is good, but I still won’t read the book. I already know their not perfect. From what I have seen, that book is just an overpriced rag mag. Dont want those either.
Ummm I left a response to Mich’s last post last night – but it is not up yet. Is it still in moderation?
Just wondering.
Thanks.
First, of all, I don’t believe in calling anyone a homewrecker. I’m appalled by the fact that women as always take the brunt of the negative attention when there is an affair. Brad played a role in the demise of his own marriage. The point that I mean to make is that people have been saying that Ian Halperin can’t know the truth because he wasn’t there at the time of the breakup. But Brad and Angelina were there, and they don’t seem to be any clearer on the matter. Everyone denied the affair rumors, at first, it’s true…but more recently, Angelina has made very suggestive comments, even saying that one day her children will be able to watch the film where their mother and father fell in love (i.e. Mr and Mrs. Smith). This hints that there is more to the story than originally told. And, if Ian Halperin wants to investigate that, he is well within his right. And the people who want to read it, will. Those who don’t want to, also have the choice to avoid it. No author can force you to read his book. He’s not tricking people into buying it. If it sells well, it’s because there is an audience for it.
As for the book itself, I’ve heard that while it reveals some of Angelina’s less attractive exploits, it also paints her as a very successful and driven woman. Any flaws it might depict should not detract from any good work she or Brad have done. That’s what I mean when I say people want the couple to remain untainted…the public doesn’t seem to understand that good people can do good things and still have flaws. It’s not all or nothing, black or white.
Tell all books, I’m sure, can be difficult for the subjects. But Brad and Angelina have worked hard to place themselves in the spotlight…sometimes there is a price to pay for that. But, with that said, I’m sure their reputations and careers will remain intact. Halperin’s book will only serve to boost their profile.
Just to respond to Jah’s comment, there is a lot out there about Brad and Angelina’s good work…just recently there were stories circulating all over the media about the 6.8 million they donated to charity. And I’ve seen many pictures of Angelina visiting with refugees and Brad working on his New Orleans project. You shouldn’t despair…the media isn’t 100% Brangelina haters.
And, let’s all be honest…if we’re writing comments on Pittwatch, we all know a little too much about this couple. We know the names of their children, the number of tattoos, their last date night. We know these things because we’re intrigued. Halperin’s book will find an audience with people who are equally intrigued. Maybe we shouldn’t care about whether Brad smokes pot or Shiloh calls a nanny “mom.” But, the reality is, there are people who do. And they are not so different from the people who logged on to this site to read about Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s Dolce Vita.
Sorry Sharon but I have to respectfully disagree with you on this point:
“But, the reality is, there are people who do. And they are not so different from the people who logged on to this site to read about Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s Dolce Vita.”
No, there’s actually a big difference. The people who are eager to read the book and who devour tabloids are interested for very different reasons and are therefore very different from the people who come to PittWatch.
I’ve been writing here for about three years and the regular readers and those who comment are interested in Brad & Angelina because they love their movies, admire their charitable efforts, and enjoy seeing them with their kids or with each other.
The people who are going to find joy in Halperin’s book are the ones who are downright gleeful about the mere thought that this couple might break up, who leave nasty comments about them on sites (and try to leave them here without success), who would love nothing more than to find out that they’re no longer together.
PittWatch readers genuinely like and admire this family. Rag readers (and by extension so-called “tell-all” readers) are negative and wish nothing but the worst on them.
So yeah, sorry but there’s a huge Grand Canyon-esque difference between the people here and the people who will enjoy the book.
First of all, you assume that every person who reads the Brangelina book is a Brangelina hater. People who read the book might just be curious and want to judge it on its own merit…rather than rely on the comments of others. What Pitt Watch fans and Brangelina readers have in common is that they both share an interest in the lives of these celebrities. It’s not fair to malign someone because they’re curious about this book and what it’s author has to say about the most famous couple on earth. Are you saying that anyone who is deemed as an acceptable fan of your website, must also automatically disregard any negative media related to the Brangelina couple? My point, as related to Jah’s comment, was that we shouldn’t be so quick to judge and label. That makes us no better than the Brangelina haters. Secondly, there has to be room in our society for all perspectives. Ian Halperin’s book might not fit nicely into the content of this website, but if one posts mean-spirited rants about it, doesn’t one just become a hater as well?
Well Sharon, I guess we’ll just have to agree to disagree then. I don’t think there’s any comparison between disliking rags that run hateful headlines (using faked photos) complete with the nasty, horrible “I hope they break up” comments on those sites and the people here on PittWatch who enjoy this couple and are tired of seeing people continually try to drag them through the mud.
Are there some readers here who will read the book? I’m sure there are, but the vast majority of people here would prefer that Halperin doesn’t make a single penny off any of us. If it was available free from the library I might flip through it; if he offered to send me a free review copy I might flip through it. But I have no interest in actually reading from front to back a book that uses unnamed sources (a favorite ploy by tabloids) and uses past dark experiences in Angelina’s life especially when she’s already been so open and honest about things like her past drug use and that she used to cut herself. He doesn’t have anything real to say, all he did was recycle things we already knew and made up things that don’t have any proper attributions, and in the end he claims they’re going to break up “soon”.
Goody for him, perhaps he should go buy a lotto ticket with his clairvoyant powers since I hear his book sales aren’t particularly amazing so far.
So like I said, you are entitled to your opinion but I – and I’m sure I’m not the only one here – am just as entitled to disagree.
No entiendo como siempre tratan de poner a Angelina como la mala de la película, yo desde hace un año recopilo toda la información que se fue publicando de ella y siempre es la que peor crítica lleva, desde que empezaba en el cine siempre fué una persona que me trasmitía una sensación de paz y serenidad, me encanta su carisma, su bondad, su caracter (que persona no tiene caracter?) Siempre estamos con la misma historia, que si se dejan que si le robó el marido a jen, eso es imposible, nadie roba a nadie si esa persona es feliz en su matrimonio, ni siquiera se tienen ojos para una tercera. La gente debe de ser gelipollas si todavia no entienden que Brad era mayorcito para saber donde se metia, no estamos hablando de una adolescente, sino de un hombre maduro que necesitaba un cambio en su vida, cambio que consiguió con Angelina. Desde que estta con ella el parece otro, tiene mas libertad de hacer lo que le gusta, eso se fue viendo con el paso de estos cutro años. POR FAVOR, VER MAS ALLA DE VUESTRAS NARICES, ELLOS ESTAN DONDE QUIEREN ESTAR NADIE LOS OBLIGA.
Mich- If you read that actual interview and read Angie’s FULL comment about being excited for the kids to see MAMS, it’s quite clear that she was referring to the fact that her and Brad’s CHARACTERS fall in love during the movie (after saying what you mentioned, she goes on to say “It’s going to be weird for them to see their parents fall in love and try to kill each other- Angie and Brad’s MAMS characters were assains-or something to that effect.) , NOT about her and Brad falling in love on the set in real life!
Jah- I couldn’t agree more! I, too, don’t see what’s so Earth-shattering about the kids being “chaotic” or Shiloh calling a nanny “mom” (if that’s even true.). Angie and Brad themselves have admitted that the kids can be a bit wild. In the PEOPLE interview accompanying Knox and Viv’s first photos, they mentioned that “It’s still a bit of a crow’s nest,” and that “It’s chaos, but we manage, and we’re having a wonderful time!” (or something to that effect.) But, as you said, there’s nothing wrong with that. It’s just called being a kid.
As for calling the nanny “mom”….I have even heard of kids accidentally calling their teachers “mom”! That doesn’t mean their mother doesn’t pay attention to them and/or doesn’t love them!
Basically, I completely agree that the book appears to be just a really long, expensive version of the tabloids!
THOSE BASTARD AUTHORS WILL BE A HOMELESS IF THEY CAN’T DIGGING CELEBRITIES’S LIFE. FORGET THE MONEY HUNGERS. WHO STUPPID TO BELIEVE THEIR FAKE, CREATED STORIES? WHO IS THE DUMBASS, THE IDIOTS TO BUY THOSE FAKE STORY BOOK? WHO? WHO?
Well said Angie!
