Brad Pitt & Gwyneth Paltrow gush over their love for each other to sell cashmere

Brad Pitt is the co-founder of a new cashmere line called God’s True Cashmere. He worked on it with Sat Hari Khalsa. There have been rumors for years that Sat Hari and Brad are dating, but it seems like they’re just friends and now business partners. To promote the cashmere line, Brad agreed to be interviewed by Gwyneth Paltrow for her Goop site. The result was a discussion about Gwyneth’s father, the late Bruce Paltrow, who loved Brad like a son. The result was also a pretty slick PR move, especially given that the main reason Pitt has been in the news over the past year is for his constant legal harassment and financial abuse of his ex-wife Angelina Jolie. Here’s Brad telling Gwyneth that he loves her.

GP: Okay, since it’s almost Father’s Day, I’m going to ask you about Bruce. I’ll never forget when we were engaged and he came to me one day, his eyes full of tears, and he said, “You know, I never really realized what they mean when they say you’re gaining a son. Like, I’m gaining a son.” What impact did he have on you? Why did you love him, even though we didn’t get married, unfortunately.

BP: Yeah, right. [Laughs.] Oh man, everything works out, doesn’t it?

GP: Yes, it does. I finally found the Brad I was supposed to marry. It just took me 20 years.

BP: And it’s lovely to have you as a friend now.

GP: It is.

BP: And I do love you.

GP: I love you so much.

BP: One of the many things I loved about Bruce—because he did have a profound effect on me and is someone I still think about—was he really fostered your voice, your independence. He carved the way for you guys to be who you are. And I think that’s so important to parenting, you know? So the child is free to find out who they are and what they love and what they don’t. You guys were just so free in your conversations. And witty. And intelligent. And funny as f*ck.

[From Goop]

The fact that Gwyneth is talking about Father’s Day and Brad is talking about what he learned about parenting from Bruce Paltrow, all while Brad’s six children want nothing to do with him. All while Angelina had to flee with the kids and ghost Brad after he drunkenly abused them. The fact that he’s still filing bullsh-t lawsuits against Jolie because she left him and has slowly extricated herself from him legally and financially.

But sure… vintage Brad and Gwyneth. They’re so ‘90s.

    That is the best her hair has ever looked. I wish she would go back to a long bob. It really is flattering on her.

  2. Carnivalbaby says:

    Ugh. Gwyneth is trash for this. Supporting this man who is mentally abusing his 6 children and ex wife. The PR move though is stellar. You can tell these guys are spending all their money on some fierce communications strategists. Dark days ahead.

  3. Noki says:

    Is he possibly trying to showcase that Angelina is the issue? That all his other exes lurve him oh so much!

    • Zapp Brannigan says:

      Yep, only problem with that is AJ is friendly with her ex’s too and they have spoken well of her over the years. Thornton’s son spoke about her in an interview recently too and it was also positive. I don’t know what Gwyneth gets out of this interview, only to appear as a pick me chick.

    • Luna says:

      She is super friends with her first ex-husband, Jonny Miller. Jonny’s son and Angelina’s children are friends.
      Billy Bob’s children (2nd ex-husband) have very fond memories of her and said that she still sends them Christmas gifts. When Brad was with Angelina he kept his distance from his exes because they weren’t needed in his PR at the time. But now he needs them to show that he’s a good guy who has never been abusive to them like he was to Angelina and her kids.
      Will Brad also use his ex-girlfriend who was 16 and he was 24 at the time in this PR as well?

    If anyone wondered where the Karen haircut originated. Now we know…

      This, this this.

      Absolutely agree this is a flex to put Brad in a better light and lord knows she name drops him any chance she gets

      Also, Gwyneth will do/say anything to sell anything, even if it’s harmful to women. Here is just another instance.

  5. bergamot says:

    Wait, how much are those lumberjack cashmere shirts? Over $2K?! Good Lord!

    As for this mutual a** kissing interview/convo? Whatever. Just leave Angelina and her kids alone.

  6. Twin Falls says:

    They were pretty though.

  7. AD says:

    PR,PR, for their goods , good in fooling people to buy their costly goods $ phew sell to their fellow hollywerds,

  8. LOL says:

    Are all of Brad Pitt’s ex girlfriends lining up to be the Kate Moss at the trail? They seem to be falling over eachother trying to bug up this man who nothing but insulted them, ghosted them, and now us using them just to attack the mother of his children, trying to minipulate Jennifer Aniston and Gwyneth Paltrow fanbase into supporting him. The looser father who abused his children and their mother and walked away into a Hollywood standing ovations and Oscar. Sickening makes me sick

  9. AnnaKist says:

    Yikes. His hair and face in the first pic… I taught a boy in Year 6 with the same hairstyle, including the streaks. He fiddled wth his hair, all day, every day for the entire year. But he was 12 and that was four years ago. Pitt is cringey, trying to be 25 again. What a knobhead.

  10. Lively says:

    Erm how’s this a Father’s Day sales interview but never mentions his own 6 children.
    Jeez is his new PR strategy to erase his children from his life, because they don’t wanna know him.
    This man is insecure and this pathetic at 60.
    Ewww Man

  11. crogirl says:

    “Since its fathers day let’s talk about my dad” LOOOL
    Doesn’t his PR team get how crazy it is that him being a father is not mentioned once? She talks about her daughter but his kids-nothing. I really think he doesn’t even know those kids anymore, he can’t share an anecdote, a funny story or something?

    • Luna says:

      He always runs away from any subject that involves his children. When he won the Oscar and they asked about Maddox, he almost ran and stuttered as he answered. He doesn’t even know what college his kids are in.

    • Hanna says:

      Very hypocriet and arrogant. I wonder as he can good sleep or what his situation of his night alone of his age now .

  12. Maria from Tercer mundo says:

    They’re talking about fatherhood, her father, her daughter but no one single word about his SIX CHILDREN or his own fatherhood experience. The talk it’s all about father’s day but they are acting like he still single with no kids. Surreal. The worst PR ever. Is he paying for such erratic job? the man is over if he thinks that is good for his image

  13. anna says:

    she clearly knows what is going on as the most natural thing to ask about in a father’s day post is his 6!!! children, but avoids it entirely, nothing even in the copy. They really must want nothing to do with him.

    this is the problem in so many cases – just because someone is nice to you (clearly Brad is still “nice” to GP), does not mean they treat other people/women/partners/children well!

    he is still being sued for leaving people in new orleans without functional housing.

    • LULU says:

      “ this is the problem in so many cases – just because someone is nice to you (clearly Brad is still “nice” to GP), does not mean they treat other people/women/partners/children well!” => THIS!

      ALSO abusers can be incredibly two-faced! For example, my close friend’s ex turned out to be an abusive POS. Throughout their relationship, he was so friendly towards me, but after they broke up I discovered that he was talking shit about me to her the entire time! Abusers are incredibly manipulative by nature, they are not all bad all the time to everyone, otherwise they wouldn’t be able to get away with their abuse. I wish there was more education on this matter so people are less inclined to victim blame and jump to forgive POSes like Brad and Johnny Depp.

  14. Queen Meghan’s Hand says:

    This is craven but brilliant PR. She wouldn’t even speak the name Brad for YEARS, and has he ever, EVER spoken about her since the failed engagement? But now, they love each other?
    Gwyneth wants to be the Head Brad Pitt Ex. The first one we think of, not Angelina, not “That TV Girl”. Brad is desperate to keep up his image. It’s going to be so ugly when it shatters.

  15. LeylaGirl says:

    Brad trying to get all his exes to kiss his ass he’s desperate at this point. Gwyneth has no shame but what can you expect from one of Weinstein girls.

  16. AmyB says:

    This is beyond the pale, but as others have pointed out – anything for publicity I guess (ugh)!!

    How Gwyneth (a wife, and mother herself) can cozy up to this asshole now, as he drunkenly abused his ex-Angelina, and most likely Maddox on that plane so badly, she up and left him and never looked back. And engage in this discussion about “Father’s Day” with zero mention of his OWN SIX children LOL?! Just beyond tasteless and gross. And then their pronouncements of “oh I love you” – give me a break!

    If I were any of his exes, I would be grateful AF to have gotten away in one piece after seeing the abuse he is continuing to pour upon Angelina and the kids. How Gwyneth, or even Aniston give him the time of day, is beyond me.

  17. Grace says:

    Was Aniston too busy to partake in this obvious and ridiculous Failed PR and that why he went for Paltrow?😂😂

    • Truthiness says:

      Aniston has f-k you money from the syndication of Friends. Plus her own endorsements. Really no need. Maybe I’m the only one who isn’t bothered by this advertisement. Gwyneth did not make a lot of money in her acting career, she needs Goop to be successful. She’s 💯 trading on her elite friends, pretentious friends with only the best product lines. Gah.

      Brad has to pay for 6 kids, he can complain to high heaven about visitation but he absolutely has to pay. I don’t begrudge the kids anything, he will look even more foolish than he already does to complain about child support.

      • Morning says:

        Gwyneth has FU money too (but she’s not as rich as Jennifer Aniston). Her thing with GOOP and trying so hard is (1) the fact she’s got a obligation to keep marketing it as GOOP has accepted around $75 million in funding from various venture capital firms; and (2) GOOP was ridiculed to high heaven and still is a bit and she’s still desperate to make it a unicorn. She has a lot of critics but keep in mind there are very wealthy fans who are happy to spend up big for the stuff she peddles because this type of elite consumerism does have a niche. She’s in a niche for the rich.
        Brad Pitt was so pretty back in the day. When I see those pics of them I always get a bit grossed out because I associate these two with Seven where her character experiences a horrible ending.

      • Coco says:

        What does Jen and Goop having money have to do with Grace’s comment.

      • Truthiness says:

        Coco, Grace remarked:

        “Was Aniston too busy to partake in this obvious and ridiculous Failed PR”

        Jennifer Aniston has nothing to shill here. This is profit motivated. Goop and Brad are trading on tidbits from their romantic history to sell their two lines. #ad

      • Morning says:

        The implication is Goop is doing this partly for commercial purposes for GOOP.

        But, to add, I think they both had an okay relationship with him and are happy to do free PR for him anyway.

      • Coco says:

        @moring

        No it wasn’t, Grace never implied that it was for commercial purposes. She was more implying just like all the others that Pitt Is pulling a Deep move and he couldn’t get JA to play along this time so he got Goop.

      • Coco says:

    • Morning says:

      Yes, @Coco, whatever Pitt’s reasons (it’s definitely good PR for him to look chummy with his exes) but that’s what Truthiness is saying, that Goop agreed to it for commercial reasons. I agreed but I don’t think she lacks FU money (and Jen Aniston definitely does not lack it either); it’s just her regular strategy to get as much coverage for her business as possible.

      Having said that, neither GP nor JA need Pitt; he benefits more from them than they do with him.

      • Truth hurts says:

        I agree. Pitt is doing this for his image and Goop and Aniston are doing it for publicity. Maybe a little spit at Angie but what they should realize is none of these people care about the other.

  18. Bree says:

    Nostalgia is a hell of a drug and he’s been dealing it since AJ left. I wonder if GP and especially JA are so willing to participate because they’re all at the same agency. Paltrow doesn’t need him at all but with Jennifer it’s highly & mutually beneficial. They use each other.

  19. Thoughts says:

    Of course Brad is willing to declare love for one of his more famous White girlfriends. This is the only type of woman he’s ever claimed to love: the skinny young White It Girl, especially the ones from Hollywood families. Let’s see him declare love for his exes Sinnita or Jitka Pohlodek a quarter century after dating them. He would never!

    Both Brad and Gwyn are ridiculous trying to push a Father’s Day angle, with her focusing on her late father while pushing his clothing line, and Brad never mentioning his father or his own kids. Brad hasn’t been seen in public with his kids for almost 6 years and he’s reportedly estranged from 3 of his 6 kids, and counting.

    Every 6 months she comes up with a new story reminding everyone she was engaged to Brad Pitt (and even mentions it in their interview) and I truly believe she wishes she would have married him (and divorced him) just so she could say she was his first wife. Plus, for years she acknowledged they were cordial and not close, but now they’re exchanging “I love you’s.”

    This is why I feel Brad is a user, the ONLY time he shows love to Gwyn since they split in 1997 is when she’s promoting clothes he’s trying to sell. This is the same thing as when he quietly snuck into Jen’s 50th birthday bash and Xmas party to support her, but later had a very public reunion with Jen (with tons of cameras around) at the SAG awards when he wanted support during his 2020 Oscar campaign.

    The real difference between Brad and Gwyneth is that she’s a snob and owns it, while he’s a snob and wants to appear to be down the earth. The truth is, he’s as “down to earth” as that $2,250 plaid shirt he’s selling, made of cashmere and crystals.

  20. Oye says:

    Ah can you just move on and stop dragging kids to everything he does.
    You cannot have it both ways. She. Ghosted him as you admit can you tell her to stay that way?
    Why would he want to talk about something she doesn’t want to give as he wanted? What for? He mat do but he doesn’t need to or his best interest.
    She taking from the kids their father cover thing. Imo.
    And above lady, he can say that to whomever he want and vice versa .omg and it doesn’t mean he did not love the others.

    • Coco says:

      Hi Brad 🤣🤣😀

    • Lolololol says:

      So I guess brads fans are following his cue and giving up on his kids too, huh? Before the comments were, it’s all lies that they don’t see him, it all happens behind closed doors. Now can’t even bother with that, he doesn’t have to talk about them.

    • Thoughts says:

      It doesn’t make sense to say we should not mention his kids when discussing an article where Brad is promoting Father’s Day.

      Also, I definitely believe Brad is elitist and very calculating when it comes to his career and image. When it comes to his love life, if you’re not a skinny young White It Girl, then he won’t even use your name in a sentence.

    • Truth hurts says:

      I don’t think people are ?ing their love you’s(except Aniston fans).
      They are simply calling him a image driven terd.
      And why he hasn’t spoken about or been seen with his own six children in six years!!
      He sitting there commenting on how to father kids yet has been in a custody battle because of his physical, emotional and verbal abuse within his own family unit.
      Goop is just being the snobbish out of touch azz she always is.

    • AC says:

      @OYE Your comment doesn’t make sense.

  21. Bisynaptic says:

    LOL “I finally found the right Brad to marry.”—SHADE!

    • Morning says:

      But seriously, gushing and saying I love you to an ex-bf isn’t really respectful to her current husband so she had to put that in somewhere.

      • Anonymous says:

        I think it was clear they context they’re saying I love you in. Not romantic, but familial, a little nostalgic because they were two people who spent formative years and almost spent their life together and since their relationship didn’t appear to end in assault, it seems they still have sincere love for one another and want to express that. (Or want to appear that they do to shill cashmere goods/goop.)

        Having been through this awful pandemic and also experiencing and seeing friends experience the loss of loved ones, I’ll never begrudge or judge anyone for telling someone else they love them. I actually think most don’t do it enough to family, friends and loved ones of all types. You never know when it’s your last chance. If you really do/mean it, say it every chance you get, I think!

        I understand why putting “the right Brad” comment in may come off as done so not to insult her husband (and maybe it was), but to me it seems a little more insulting to Brad Pitt and a lot more to Chris Martin.

        Regardless, I generally support the exchange of I love yous, but don’t know what to think about this situation. Does seem like a PR move to sell stuff. Didn’t break the internet though. Maybe Brad should wise up and try to cosy up to a Kardashian. LOL GP is.

      • Coco says:

        @Anonymous

        😂😂🤣🤣 You really tried it with this comment next time try something more believable. 🤣🤣

        I have six worlds for you Maddox, Pax , Zahara, Shiloh, Knox and Vivian. Ya the pandemic hasn’t change Pitt to want to become a better father, better yet a father period or fix what he has broken.

        So don’t come here with this BS about someone he hadn’t spoken about or to in over 20 years .

      • AD says:

        Maybe, Indication of unhappiness for Goop & for Pitt trying to create a narrative forattention. PR for their goods! did they sell what they were promoting- $2000 cashmere shirts! I wonder if it we’re sold out!

    I think it has nothing to do with 90s nolstagia, or less to do with it. I actually think Pitt’s running short of cash (child support, multiple lawsuits, and likely paying people to go after another star and his power base). So he’s now going after Paltrow and her Goop platform to get cash he desperately needs to go on.
    The interesting part is why Gwyneth agreed after years of not talking with each other. I think he’s got black materials on her or her godfather Spielberg.
