Jonah Hill is BFFs with Brad Pitt now, Brad & Angelina went to his b-day party

Brad Pitt and Jonah Hill worked together surprisingly well in Moneyball. On-camera, in the film, Brad and Jonah made a great and low-key team, and off-camera, they seem to get along surprisingly well too. I wonder what their relationship is really like? I wonder if Brad has grown into the “celebrity mentor” role? Does he see Jonah like a little brother? Or does Brad accord Jonah the respect of an equal? One thing’s for sure – those early reports about Brad “bullying” Jonah were totally false. While Jonah has been getting more publicity over the past few months, he’s let it slip as to just how close he is with Brad and Angelina:

Need a place to stay? Give Brangelina a call! When Jonah Hill was filming a movie in New Orleans, his Moneyball costar was more than happy to let him stay at his home.

“Brad [Pitt] is the coolest guy,” Hill, 28, told Jon Stewart on The Daily Show. “It sucks because he’s so handsome… You don’t wanna like him so much!”

“I was shooting [21 Jump Street] in New Orleans, and he let me live in his house,” the actor said. “He said, ‘Go live there!’ I said, ‘I’m there for three-and-a-half, four months,” and he said, ‘That’s cool. Live at my house.’ Like, he’s the nicest guy.”

“Was Angie home?” Stewart, 49, asked jokingly. “Is he that cool?”

“He isn’t that cool,” Hill laughed.

Hill’s stay at the Jolie-Pitt home caused some confusion for those living in The Big Easy.

“Every day I’d get picked up in a black SUV and dropped off. But people in New Orleans know it’s Brad Pitt’s house,” he told Stewart. “It’s literally on the tour. So, I would go home every day from work and there’d be a tour outside and they’d be freaking out, and then I’d get out of the car, and you could hear a collective audible sigh of annoyance when it wasn’t Brad Pitt!”

Isn’t that a cute story? And yes, considering Joanh was able to stay at the Jolie-Pitt NOLA mansion for nearly four months, uninterrupted, that probably means that the Jolie-Pitt family aren’t making their way down to NOLA as often as they would have us think. Still, it’s nice that Brad lent the place to Jonah. Do you think Jonah ever invited Channing Tatum over and they threw a house party? (I’ll include the trailer for 21 Jump Street at the end of the post.)

Anyway, here’s another cute Jonah-Brangelina story – according to Us Weekly, Brad and Angelina came out for Jonah’s 28th birthday party in Hollywood:

Happy birthday from Brangelina! Jonah Hill’s 28th birthday party at La Descarga in Hollywood was quite the star-studded affair. A source tells Us Weekly that Hill’s Moneyball costar Brad Pitt came out for the bash, as did Angelina Jolie and Zooey Deschanel.

Pitt, 48, and Jolie, 36, stayed for about two hours at the fete. “They danced a little bit,” adds the source. “Angelina had a glass of wine in her hand.”

The couple — who let Hill live in their New Orleans home for four months while he was filming 21 Jump Street — left around 12:30 a.m., right before the dance party got crazy.

According to a source, Deschanel was “tearing up the dance floor” while DJ Bobby French spun for the night. Hill danced with “several different girls” throughout the evening.

Sigh… I’d like to party with Brad, Angelina, Jonah and Zooey. And Joseph Gordon Levitt. And Michael Fassbender. And Quentin Tarantino, just because he seems like he would be fun at parties. Oh, and we should invite Ewan McGregor too! And Jude Law, just so someone would wind up pregnant. Who else? Emma Thompson! And that’s it. That’s my party.

Also – there are new pics of Brad on his motorcycle with Pax in the sidecar. They’re adorable, and you can see them here.

Here’s the trailer for 21 Jump Street, shot in NOLA while Jonah lived at the Jolie-Pitt mansion.

    lol 🙂

    • Camille says:

      Hehe, cute quote huh 😀 .

      Cute stories about the Brandge today, it makes a nice change lol.

  3. Tabby says:

    Wow. Your party would rock. Can we invite John Cusack and Sandra Bullock too?

    The Brad and Jonah story is great, I’m sure he really is that laid back and generally just
    Nice to people.

  4. Samira677 says:

    I don’t recall them saying they constantly go to New Orleans. But they do go a couple of times a year because of the Make It Right project and Brad just filmed a movie there a year ago.

  5. Trek Girl says:

    The fact that Jonah was able to stay in the Jolie-Pitt New Orleans mansion for four months doesn’t mean that they’re not going down there a lot. Did they say in the past few months that they would be down there or something? They have projects elsewhere as well. I see no deception in their actions.

    Back to the real story: I think this is awesome. Jonah and Brad seem like they would make great friends, and I’m glad that they have. I hope Jonah has a great time with the Jolie-pitts and vice versa.

  6. LeManda says:

    Cute story.
    The trailer was really stupid but I will admit I laughed a few times.

  7. Samigirl says:

    The 21 Jump Street trailer literally made me LOL. I didn’t think I would think it was funny. I’m pleasantly surprised.

  8. Lucky Charm says:

    Wasn’t 21 Jump Street just filmed this past summer? The Jolie-Pitts were in the UK because Brad was filming WWZ, so they wouldn’t have been going to NO anyway. Cute story, and I would love to take that tour, only with the Jolie-Pitts at home. I can see Shiloh in the front yard saying “Hi” to everyone passing by, lol!

  9. lisa says:

    I think there is some big event if I recall in NOLA in March.. Brad will be there and Ellen D. so there will be pics

    I saw pictures of the house and it is quite nice. Very understated in way.. Old World. I don’t know but I loved the patio garden..

    Anyway how awesome.. I would love to be invited to live in their home. And Jonah was so low key. Didn’t hear about it until after the fact.

    I think he and Brad hit it off and like each other. Maybe not BFFs but still a nice thing to let someone do.

  10. Dani says:

    He strikes me as a cool guy and he’s cute.

  11. Gigi says:

    Lucky guy. You think he took some photos or video of himself around the house? Like “this is me in Brad’s bed wearing his bathrobe” or “this is me in Brad’s tub using Angie’s shampoo.” Wait, sorry yeah that comes off more creepy than funny, but I could totally see myself doing that!

  12. Mia says:

    Brad and Angie the old couple …kkkkk… nice

  13. Kara Ann says:

    Kinda loving Jonah Hill lately. I really surprised at how good the jump street clip was. Jonah and Channing seem like good guys in interviews so I hope it does well for them!

    Pitt and Jonah seem like they really have taken a shine to each other. I find that sweet and endearing! You know Jonah called back home after and said “guess who came to my birthday party?” He seems all fanboy about it and that cute and cool.

  14. Sakyiwaa says:

    Cute story. Nice to see no hate.

  15. Sasha says:

    Aww, bless Jonah!

    I’d be pretty nervous staying in Brad and Angie’s house though… I’d feel terrified of just using the toilet.

  16. mln76 says:

    Well we know that Brad & the family spent the early part of 2011 in NOLA because he shot Cogan’s Trade there.

  17. Angie says:

    I would also invite Bill Murray, robert Downey Jr, Mila Kunis, Emma Stone, Adele, Tina Fey, Colin Firth and Jon Hamm (how could we forget the Hamm?) at that party. It would be the best party ever !!!

  18. Pat says:

    Is the world coming to an end? Only 24 posts on a Brad/Angie post? What is going on? Oh no – worse then any nasty tabloid story is them getting boring! Could it be happening? Please tell me no!

    As for their house in NO. I was there a couple of weeks ago leaving on a cruise and the house was included in the tour. Just looked like all the other houses in the French Quater.

    @mln76 – I am surprised that being such a big Brad/Angie fan you forgot that when Brad filmed in NO for Cogan’s Trade Angie and the kids did not go they stayed in LA. Angie flew out with the kids once and Brad flew to LA alot -they also met at some retreat or something like that for a special couple get away during the filming.

    As for Make It Right there is a lot of talk about not just that but habitat for humanity as well and the houses they built in the ninth ward. Many who live in NO (our taxi driver was telling us) are against building again in the lower ninth ward. The business are not moving back in as they don’t want to risk the same thing happening and the lower ninth is not recovering well due to this. People just think that the risk of living there is not worth it. As for Brad’s houses where were fine but I was very disappointed that there was no landscaping done – the house looked new but around all the houses was nothing. Just these houses on barren land. Pretty sad.

      • lisa says:

        Sorry the line forms behind Angie.

        then I’m next up to bat.

        I saw Jonah talk about that on John Stewart.. It was a funny interview. Jonah has a great sense of humor

        Did you all see when he had that Call out of Matthew Morrison on Jimmy Fallon’s show.

        absolutely a hoot.

  21. LBeees says:

    LOL: “And that’s my party.”

    Amen.

  22. Rux says:

    I saw that trailer yesterday and I can’t wait to see it. I have always been MEH about Channing but this just put him in a better spotlight with me; I hope the movie does well.
