Brad Pitt takes Maddox to a New Orleans Saints game

NFL Divisional Playoffs - Arizona Cardinals v New Orleans Saints

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have split up! For a day. Brad took his oldest, Maddox, to New Orleans for the Saints v. Arizona Cardinals game in the Superdome on Saturday. For some strange reason, these photos are of Brad and Maddox sitting with Louisianan Patricia Clarkson as they all watch the Saints warm-up. Random, yes? The tabloids will probably make Clarkson the next player in the drama – “Angelina throws bucket of fish at Brad after she finds his sexy texts to Patricia Clarkson!” Anyway, the game (football, yes?) was the NFC Divisional Playoff Game, whatever that means (basketball?). The Saints won, so… great! I don’t know if Brad was in New Orleans as part of Make It Right, or he and Maddox just wanted to take in a game, or what.

But I do know that Angelina, Zahara and Shiloh weren’t in New Orleans with the boys! Radar had photos of Angelina and her older girls out food shopping at Whole Foods in Sherman Oaks, California on Saturday. We don’t have access to the photos, but you can see them here. Zahara and Shiloh appear to be carrying their blankies. Angelina is wearing a grey poncho, so… the shapeless sack look is back!

Back to Brad and Maddox – yes, Brad still has that f-cking goatee crap. I’m including some extreme close-ups of it, in all of its goaty glory. I’m beyond defending that thing. It’s totally fug, and I think Brad is just growing that sh-t out because he doesn’t give a crap what we think. I will say this though – I will defend Brad’s aging. If he shaved that sh-t off, he would be a very handsome 40-something man who looked his age, and I do love his crow’s feet and his laugh lines. He looks like a man, not a pretty boy.

The knit cap should go, though. It makes me miss the newsboy cap.

    wow…love the father and son photos.

    ive seen one where mad is smiling eye to eye with brad

  2. Best of British says:

    That beard of his reminds me of the story “The Twits”. Mr Twit used to store bits of dribbled food in his beard for tidbits later in the day… Brad’s also looks like it could have food bits stuck in it.. yeurk.

  3. viper says:

    is he trying to get into pirates or somthing?! That beard is just…ugh.

  4. Firestarter says:

    Forget the beard, that rag on his head is more annoying. It looks like it’s loaded with lint and dandruff.

  5. Maritza says:

    Even when he’s smiling he has a sad look in his eyes, Brad is a broken man. I hope 2010 brings him happiness.

  6. bella says:

    I no longer care for Brad or Angelina (I’m one of those who haven’t seen a single movie they’ve been in since the whole cheating debacle, as I’ve been cheated on and believe in standing by my principles.) so my snarky comment is something along the lines of “The donation king holding court for his admirers.”

  7. Firestarter says:

    *Hands Bella protective gear*

  8. lisa says:

    Give me a break.. I have seen tons of pics and the man looks quite happpy with HIS LIFE AND CHOICES.. Boy some people need to move on.. He did not leave you.. I really doubt he would change anything.. except leave a bit earlier..

  9. Goddess711 says:

    (hehe hehe @ Firestarter)(Suit up and assume the postion, Bella! It started early – looks like the fangirls are going to be out in full force!)

    Once a dog, always a dog, Lisa. In this case he’s starting to look like a terrier.

    Lisa, I can only hope it happens to you someday, sooner rather than later.

  10. elvisgrace says:

    awww @ Maddox and his fedora. There seems to be an effort in this family to do a lot of one-one-one or one-on-two parent/child activities, which is nice, because it would be easy for a kid to feel lost in the shuffle of such a big family.

  11. bella says:

    @ Firestarter & Goddess –

    lol and thanks!

  12. Morgs says:

    Patricia Clarkson is an amazing actress. I am in love with her voice. I just want her to read me bedtime stories….sigh.

  13. lucy2 says:

    I like Patricia Clarkson too.

    Maddox is cute, never would have pegged anyone in that family a football fan, but it looks like they’re having fun.

    I think a big part of the problem is that it’s always that horrible hat plus the scraggle beard. One or the other would be bad enough but both all the time is extra bad.
    I will say this – I don’t think Brad is aging well at all, but at least he’s letting it happen naturally, and not getting all pulled and tucked and botoxed. We don’t need him looking like Kenny Rogers any time soon!

  14. lisa says:

    goddess.. women get cheated on and so do men.. and YES it has happened to me. But unlike you and many other women.. My self esteem did not depend on that relationship. I moved on and found someone else. And since Brad said he did not cheat..so did Jennifer.. why are you so invested in that. I can’t understand why what Brad Pitt did or did not do affects the hearts of people who do not know this man. Nor what he feels, thinks or regrets. But hey.. I am not a whinnier.. I am a woman that did not spend years of my life thinking and being pissed about a breakup. Especially one that was not my own.

    So maybe some of the Jennifer fans should get over that sooner then later. 5 years is too long to hold a grudge against someone you don’t know.

  15. alex says:

    bella, I doubt they are missing your $11.00 at their movies lol. Some of you people are amazing

  16. alex says:

    awwwwwwwww such cute pictures. Let me go and leave before the haters take over, oh wait a minute, they are already here lol. Hate away people

  17. snowball says:

    Don’t take it as gospel, but I read in one of the million stupid magazines I ended up with because I donated to the Special Olympics – whew – but supposedly Brad’s growing the thing out because he’s optioned some screenplay about some guy who has a long scraggly thing on his chin and he’s expecting that to be his next acting project.

    That was awfully vague. They mentioned the name of the book/screenplay but of course I’ve forgotten it. Of course, there was the requisite “insider” quote about how Brad hates to wear fake beards. Haha.

    Anyway.. does anyone in the family except Angie and Empress Zahara go out without a freaking hat on? Yeah, they’re cute, but jeez.

  18. Essie says:

    I think Brad is still one of the best looking actors around,even with that goatee. Plus, I think he is keeping it just because everybody hates it!! I think he’s laughing at all the stories (People mag, etc.) who criticize the goatee. I say, good for Brad for doing what he wants to do and not caring what anybody says!!

    Also, congrats to the Saints!! I wonder if Brad and Mad will go to NO next week for the championship game?

  19. Birdie says:

    It’s funny to me that some of the commentators on here rage about people hating on Jennifer Aniston, but then turn around and spew hatred on Brad and Angelina. At this point, hating on either of them for the way their relationships ended/started 5 years ago is one and the same! Don’t take it so personally, it has nothing to do with you.

    There is nothing to see here except a father and son enjoying their time together. I wonder if the other kids are envious of how much alone time Maddox gets with his parents? Cute photos though, and its nice to see Brad enjoying himself out and about, he usually looks so perturbed by the photographers.

  20. LolaBella says:

    “Angelina throws bucket of fish at Brad after she finds his sexy texts to Patricia Clarkson!”

    @Kaiser: That made me laugh out loud! Poor Patricia, you just know that OK Mag or the NE will work their infamous ‘photo assumption magic’ and bring her into the Triangle mess for the next cover of their Rags as the ‘OTHER, other woman’. LOL 🙄

  21. crash2GO2 says:

    I’m reminded of an interview I saw with Paul Simon where he remarked that people were constantly asking him what was wrong, because he always has such a hang dog expression. And he says ‘Nothing’s wrong, it’s just my face!’. Maybe this just Brad’s new face. A sad one.

  22. Sumodo says:

    I STILL think the beard and the hat are some sort of perverse bet that “Pretty Boy Pitt” has with Clooney. Just watch and wait.

  23. Kevin says:

    Hi Bella, I am on the opposite side of what you are right now. I wouldn’t go to either of these two’s movies for a long time until I recently gave them another chance. I watched two of Angelina’s movies and a couple of Brad’s also. I still think AJ is a marginal actress, though easy on the eyes. (she is still on the do not watch list, unless Clint or Tarantino cast her) Brad’s couple of movies I saw put him back on the “willing to watch” list. I think it pays to be one of the photogenic kids in that family because you get more solo trips out of the family bunker, in my opinion.
    Birdie, I think the reason that Brad doesn’t look agitated in the photo is because Mad hooked up Daddy with a big fatty at the tailgate party.

  24. lennie says:

    Hate hate hate this goat on him, really.
    But Maddox is really cute.

  25. Firestarter says:

    @Essie- “I think he is keeping it just because everybody hates it!! I think he’s laughing at all the stories (People mag, etc.) who criticize the goatee.”

    Do you honestly think Pitt reads People, etc, or pays a lick of attention to any gossip about his beard? Do you think at his age, that he is THAT immature that he is going to”spite” those who dislike his beard? Please, the man has better things to do with his free time than worry about public opinion about his looks.

    Brad Pitt is sure showing me he doesn’t care what I think! He’s sure put me in my place!

  26. Jano says:

    The beard looks like shit…but I think he is trying very hard to never grace People’s cover for his looks again.

    Will always love him no matter what… Angie too

    Once a dog, always a dog, Lisa. In this case he’s starting to look like a terrier.

    ____

    LMAO!
    Priceless.

  28. Goddess711 says:

    @ Lisa – I’m guessing if it’s HAPPENED to you then you must’ve deserved it – you know, like Jen Anniston and every other woman/man who has ever been betrayed did. And yeah – you need to check your facts – there were pictures of him playing happy family with AJ and Maddox long before the divorce even started. If you need to delude yourself thinking you’re ‘just fine’, go ahead, just don’t include me or anybody else on here in your theories; you’re on here making comments too so get over yourself. Thank God your self esteem didn’t suffer, I would hate to think when you turn 13 and possibly get another boyfriend, it’s going to happen to you again and this time you might not be so ok with it.

  29. princess pea says:

    Dudes. That is NOT a goatee. A goatee is much smaller than that thing. That is, like, a woolly face-mammoth.

  30. Firestarter says:

    Goddess, you are on fire today!

    ” I would hate to think when you turn 13 and possibly get another boyfriend,” That cracked me up!

  31. elvisgrace says:

    @ princess pea: HAHAHA! That is the comment of the week!

  32. Goddess711 says:

    @ Firestarter – Thanks but seriously – don’t you wonder????

  33. lisa says:

    No dear heart I am not 13.. although I may have to get back in that mind set to continue this conversation.. Whatever Brad and Angie did has nothing whatsoever to do with you. YOU act as if he left you.. that your little heart was broken. And do you think that Brad’s marriage ended the day the divorce was announced. NOPE it was over before.. NOW perhaps you should check your facts. Rumors were going for years that their relationship was over..
    I for one am done with the back and forth. Brad is with Angelina and their 6 kids.. As a fan of both I am happy for them. If it bothers you then perhaps not seeing their movies will help.. and perhaps not reading and posting on thread about them will help even more..

    As an adult I realize that relationships come and go. Some are lasting and other not. But they are the business of the people involved. And just because someone on the outside thinks a couple looks “cute” together does not a match make. Brad/Jennifer.. are over and done. Each seems to have moved on. But I guess the people still dreaming of Barbie and Ken are unable to do so.. OH my.. I said Barbie and Ken.. dang .. I am still in that 13 year old brain.. hmmm..

  34. alex says:

    LisaB, great post. Some of these comments on here are too funny. The haters of Brad and Angie are nuts. I am sure that Brad and Angie are delighted and grateful that Kevin is just giving their movies another chance lol

  35. alex says:

    a bunch of women scorned in here lol. It is rather sad to be so bitter but I guess if my man left me I will be a bitter hag as well…NOT. It takes to much time and energy to be so bitter and pathetic

  36. Cheyenne says:

    Oh Goddess, for God’s sake, get over it. We know the mantra already: Angie is a homewrecker. Brad is a dog. Brad threw Jennifer under a bus. SO FUCKING WHAT?!

    It’s FIVE YEARS already. Aniston is not the first person on the planet who got dumped and she won’t be the last. She probably got over it long ago. Why the hell can’t you? How long are you going to hold a grudge against two people who have nothing whatever to do with you?

    Reading between the lines of all your posts on here, I’m guessing that you’re suffering from a massive case of over-identification. You got dumped for another woman and you never got over it. That’s your problem and you can handle it any way you want. But agonizing over somebody else’s divorce is stupid. Shit happens. Deal with it.

  37. Firestarter says:

    Ahh it’s good to see the Apple Dumpling Gang riding in to the thread together.

  38. Goddess711 says:

    @Cheyenne – you’re reading what you want to read, doesn’t make you right. The over-identification is you thinking your comments are the only ones that should be one here.

    What you and numerous others need to get a grip on is that this is a site where people get to bash celebrities no matter whose side you’re on. You and Lisa go bond on whatever site will believe your delusions that you have been chosen by Brad Pitt your best friend to defend him.

    Again, if you don’t like what people write about your Brad, don’t read it or write some comment about how great he is. Stick with the theme – which today happens to be assholes who think they know Brad Pitt, obviously.

  39. Rita says:

    Bravo Cheyenne, Bravo. Anyone like Goddess so invested in somebody’s else’s divorce for over 5 years, people that she does not even know, certainly does possess a massive personal problem that verges on a life controlling obsession. Life is what it is. No one is promised a rose garden full of only perfect happiness. It is hard enough dealing with one’s own life ups and downs. Why would anyone concern themselves with the divorce of some strangers for years and years and years? Live your own life Goddess and let others live theirs.

  40. Rose says:

    For god’s sake. Does there have to be war on every Brad & Angelina & Jennifer post?
    The man went to a game with his son, how that became inflammatory is beyond me.

  41. Rita says:

    Oh Goddess, I just read your last ranting comment. You are so angry, so bitter, because people have a different opinion from yours about the personal lives of celebs. It is irrational to get this worked up about the personal loves and lives of strangers. It is one thing to like or like a celeb’s body of work, that is a matter of personal choice. But to carry on as you are about a celeb’s personal life, which you appear to know nothing of but from the souces of tabloids and gossips I find extremely distasteful and utterly unintelligent. You do not know these people, you do not know what happened in their private lives, so how in the world did you let yourself get to this place of depression and misery in your own life?

    The pics here are of a father and his oldest son enjoying a football game like many other fathers and sons, that’s all that I see.

  42. Praise St. Angie! says:

    lol at the “Apple Dumpling Gang” comment.

    an underrated movie, if ever there was one.

    very cute pictures…NFL games are so much fun, I’ll bet the SuperDome is NUTTY during Saints’ games.

  43. lisa says:

    Just saw a few more pics from the game. Dang Maddox must have had a wonderful time. ON the field. meeting the actual players. He got a football too. Met the Bush and took a few pictures.. Super cute. Brad looked like he was having the time with his oldest son. That was an awesome game.

    He seemed a bit shy.. but boy it is just so cute to see how big he is. I remember when he was still a tiny baby. He is a handsome little boy. Brad seems way proud of him. And very attentive. As a fan I love seeing he and Angie, but the pictures of them with their kids are very sweet.

  44. buenavissta says:

    I would have been so much happier if he headline had read “BP takes Mad to a New Orleans barber”.
    Wooly face mammoth aside, (thank you Princess Pea!) I think he’s beautiful. He looks like real people, except, you know, richer.

  45. Munkey says:

    ^^^ 😆

  46. Cheyenne says:

    Goddess711: Oh, come off it, will you? Every damn Aniston or Jolie thread you’re ranting about Angelina-the-homewrecker yadda yadda yadda. What home did she wreck? The marriage was dead long before she ever came into the picture. And for your info, a marriage that is strong and healthy cannot be wrecked by anyone. Not even Angelina Jolie.

    The sooner you take responsibility for your own failed relationships and stop projecting all your bitterness onto somebody who doesn’t even know you exist, the better off you will be.

  47. Munkey says:

    Whoops, I was laughing at Rita’s comment.

  48. Solveig says:

    Kaiser, why my comment has been erased? It wasn’t offensive.

  49. corine says:

    I agree–why does there have to be a fight on every single post about them? The man is out with his son having a good time. So sad that all you can think of to do is rehash the past with the same silly comments.

  50. nnn says:

    Wow, some very disturbed adult call other people assholes on a thread for expressing their own opinion/perception about a celebrity none of us personally know anyway…something that same very own person does….wow, talk about accusing others doing exacltly what one’s does…

    Life is too short to explose with severe anger about gossip over celebrities. That’s infantile behaviour at its paroxysm.

    Anyway, good to see Brad enjoying fatherbond with his eldest son.

  51. bubbles says:

    hahahahaha. I love when people rant on about ethics and morals on a website called ” CELEBITCHY”!!!
    I’m also wondering if you’re going to post this or censor me again?

  52. CluelessU says:

    No marriage is healthy and strong all the time. Impossible. Marriages have their struggles and their diffcult periods.

    So all of you who say that J&B’s marriage was dead, etc. and that nobody can interrupt a strong marriage are wrong. Simply wrong or naive. Marriage just isn’t that simple.

    Which, btw, is why we make vows and promises. They’re for the hard times, not the easy “strong and healthy” times.

    Angelina is an emotionally disturbed person and I honestly think part of her interest in Brad was underscored by her desire to take away the popular cheerleader’s boyfriend. I think she got some satisfaction in that.

    Nonetheless, what’s done is done.

  53. Cheyenne says:

    Anybody read anything more into this but a dad and his son having a good time together?

  54. sandy says:

    i don’t get people who care about the past this much, all involved already said no cheating happened, whats not to get? they have moved on,, jen got what she wanted, and brad has his beautiful partner and family he always wanted that his wife refused to give him, brad came out happy, you can’t blame brad, look how he enjoys his family, it’s jens fault if you ask me. she drove him away.

  55. CluelessU says:

    No comment

  56. Praise St. Angie! says:

    wow, now that’s just rich.

    someone who constantly reads into other people’s posts regarding their romantic histories is complaining about people reading into a picture?

    the hypocrisy knows no bounds, I guess.

  57. Firestarter says:

    @Praise- Amen!

    I think there are some that have special abilities to read others minds in Hollywood and this site, because they always know what is going on in everyone’s households/lives.

    I for one, am covering my windows with tin foil today so my mind cannot be read, and my lifestyle exposed on the internet!

  58. kim says:

    For the people boycotting Brad and Angie despite the fact that neither has admitted to having an affair only falling in love during MMS. Please join in the boycotting of projects including charities by the following actors who had an affar while married or with a married person. Paul Newman,Joanne Woodward, Tom Hanks, Rita Wilson, Courtney Cox, Michael Keaton , Liam Neeson(Natasha was married), Julia Roberts,Tori and Dean,Eddie and Leanne… Please don’t watch any movies or tv shows. I will be adding musicians like Jagger, Eddie Van Halen and athletes, AROD, Tiger , Majic , Michael, Jordan, Chris Everett, Gerg Norman etc when I have more time

  59. Solveig says:

    I’d boycott Angelina and Brad movies because they usually suck as actors (Fight club is one of my fave movies, though). 😉
    Ok, but their “affaire” is none of my business altohugh I dislike people who cheat.
    And, if you are going to say that I hate cheaters because I’ve been cheated on, no, you are wrong, I’ve never been cheated on (as far as I know).
    And if you’re going to say they never cheated, well, IMO making out with someone else while you are still married is cheating. No matter if your marriage has troubles.

  60. I Choose Me says:

    Sigh. I have a sneaking, sad suspicion that this uncool triangle ‘debate’ will continue for a few more years and that the blogs and tabs will continue to milk it for all it’s got and then they’ll pulp the desiccated husk and try and squeeze a few last drops of jolie-pitt-aniston drama out of that too. Unless of course the world does end in 2012. Sheesh!

  61. Camille says:

    @ I Choose me: And yes imagine if and when Brangelina split up, the haters will have a massive field day/party, and both the haters and the loons heads will explode – one in joy and the other in sadness, and the tabloids will spend another 5+ years going on about them.

    Its never going to end is it :(.

  62. ic says:

    all those harping about a divorce that was not their own are in my opinon bitter dumped woman = but really who cares, harp away, it makes no difference to them. They don’t care so as long as b!tching about them make you guys feel better about your day, well go at it. I wished they had cheated on that albatross Brad married b/c he has become a coattailing leech of the worst type. Never ending.

  63. Barbly says:

    Yikes, Brad, lose the scruff. I don’t think he has aged all that well in fact the lighting in these photos are very complimentary, I’ve seen him look much worse but he’s got good features that saves him otherwise he’d look like one big wrinkle. Of course he may have had a little skin work done too…so yeah, but the slouch beanie and that beard, yuck. This is the first time I’ve ever seen a smile on Maddox’s face. Glad to see he’s happy at the moment. Love Patricia Clarkson too. An amazing actress!

  64. Recondite says:

    With the “ponytail holders” on his facial hair, I’d say he’s channeling Capt. Lou Albano, may he rest in peace.
