Um, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie got married this weekend. They went for the weekend when everyone was concentrating on the Emmys and VMAs. THEY ARE MARRIED. THEY GOT MARRIED IN FRANCE.
Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were married Saturday in Chateau Miraval, France, says a spokesman for the couple.
Jolie and Pitt wed Saturday in a small chapel in a private ceremony attended by family and friends. In advance of the nondenominational civil ceremony, Pitt and Jolie also obtained a marriage license from a local California judge. The judge also conducted the ceremony in France.
The couple’s children took part in the wedding. Jolie walked the aisle with her eldest sons Maddox and Pax. Zahara and Vivienne threw petals. Shiloh and Knox served as ring bearers, the spokesman says.
The Associated Press confirmed the news on Twitter as well. This is not a drill. THIS IS HAPPENING. How did they manage to keep it so undercover?

Suck it, Clooney.
Makes me extra sad for CloonTang.
I heard he gives beejs for interviews.
lol.
ha!
lol
Lol
LOL
#winning
LMAO
hahahaha
Epic win! Ha ha ha!
ahah!! No one cared about Clooney before and now it’ll be even worse.
George who??
lmao…!
but seriously, congrats to them. and aren’t they smart to do it emmy weekend!
Is there a connection between this happy news and the sudden explosion/dissolution of the French government? I think we should be told! 😉
Conspiracy theory. What if Clooney proposed and planned a wedding in Venice in September just as a distraction for Brangelina?! If the media was distracted with his “came out of left field fiancé”, then Brangelina could be all ninja about their wedding. Well played, sir.
@Greenbunny you called it 🙂 that would make sense of why the Cloonster is pretending he wants to get married – it appears he’ll get married when Jennifer Aniston gives birth.
@GreenBunny & @Mitch: Love the conspiracy theory! I’ll buy that! 😀
+1 LOOOL
Ha! That was my first thought! And also good for them! I love it!
Hahahahaha superlol
Well, what to say? Congratulations Mr and Mrs. Pitt!!!
Maybe all the happiness of this world bless your life together as a married couple 🙂
Wow! I can’t believe this! I take a break from CB for an hour and this happens! Congrats to Brad and Angie! Now that’s how its done. They are pacesetters! Damn I am So proud to be joliepitt fan! 😉 🙂
#shinningmybrangelinabadgeofhonour
The one morning I was too busy to check CB. Congrats to the Brange and my man Brad.*Happy Butty Shake*
Andrea i’m with you! Set down the device, got some work done and come back to this! Great for them. This couple has proven imo they can stay together.
Saw something posted about this in the Aniston thread and dismissed it thinking they got married years ago and no one knew.
I always thought thatt hey had been secretly married for years, lol. They proven before (with Jolie’s surgery) that they can keep important things completely undercover, so good for them, having a wonderful and special day without any unwelcome intrusions.
And how cute is it that her sons walked her down the aisle?
I can’t believe there wasn’t a flower wall.
What?! They got married??? I just went to sleep and woke up and now I feel like those people on the leftovers- completely left behind!!! Lemme go read EVERYTHING ON THE INTERNET!!!!
I’ve been distracted in meetings this morning and normally would have checked my gossip blogs. I feel so behind!! Congrats to them!
Finally, these two heathens have stopped living in sin. Praise Jesus.
LMAO!! But what about the children?!!! Would someone please think of the children!!!
Trisha, is that you? My sister, a reformed wild child is now an evangelist who also coined phrases like “Jesus saves” and “you are a good person but without being saved you will burn in hell”. Thought she paid a visit on CB! Thanks for the laugh Lisa.
thank you for that belly laugh!!!!!
YOU KNOW ANISTON IS SO PISSED.
Right as she does all those interviews. Hahahaha.
Meanwhile I want to know EVERYTHING.
Oh sweet delusion. Bless your heart.
Come now, be nice – this is REALLY important for some people!
I’m pleased to hear that gay marriage is now legal in all 50 states…
DailyMail had pics of them at Nice airport a few days ago.I was wondering why they were Nice rather than in Malta.I wish they had realeased statement Friday afternoon so the media couldn’t cover it over holiday weekend.
LOL @Tapioca. Nice.
LOL @ Tapioca. Reminds me of when after Maddox, Angie said she couldn’t imagine or justify having bio-children of her own when there were so many babies who needed adopting. Sigh. People change. Anyway, may these two gigantic superstars stay together, happily, forever.
Ugh- experience ruined at the second comment- get over it!!!
Same here.
Yeah, I usually avoid all Aniston or Pitt/Joiie threads because of the crazies. Gonna take this as a cue to exit NOW.
I don’t think she cares that much. after 6 kids nothing will get to her.
Of course, you had to drag JA into the conversation. Get a life.
Oh stop it. Don’t ruin this thread with that nonsense.
I don’t know if I’m getting involved in something I know nothing about, but that was my first thought. Sad to know I don’t have a life.
I feel ya; Aniston was my first thought too. I personally blame you all for putting that dichotomy in my head in the first place. And to be honest, that’s why I’m reading the comments.
It’s pretty hard at this point on this site to hear good news from Dame Angie and Brad and not think about what the next thing to come from Aniston will be.
All happy wishes aside we hould start preparing for the onslaught of People, USWeekly, Star, etc… and the Aniston related covers.
You can ride this out in my tabloid proof bunker bluhare is you like. I’ll be only shopping at the upscale food stores without tabloids at the checkout just to be safe when venturing out for supplies.
Embarrassed for you right now tbh. I mean this is a nice post lets keep it nice. 🙂
I think she knew. That’s why she did the anti-Jolie thing–don’t need a man and kids.
I still don’t care much for those two.
oh, balls.
BALLS!
Salted balls (nuts).
Throwing BALLS in the air!!!! Congrats to Brad and Angie!! Why do I feel sad I wasn’t invited!!!! lol
Schwetty balls, or as my guy calls them-buttermilk nuts..
@MrsBPitt
Because your man married someone else……
I feel for you though–I would shit a brick if my man remarried….I don’t think that’s happening though 🙁 (well, at least until he meets ME!)
Giant sweaty hairy balls!
Buttermilk balls has me wretching. *scores one point for artificially inflating comments*
Imagine being told this while eating cereal, I have never been able to look at Pops the same way..
How do you think I feel? My “signature pie” is a buttermilk pie, made with love. And balls.
Well, congratulations! I admire how they kept it just for them and their family. It can be done!! I don’t want to hear stars bitching anymore. If you wan to live a quieter. more private life, you can do it. Happy for them!!
kri, while I think this absolutely shows that it can be done…not all stars have AJ/BP’s resources. There is a big difference between what a person with $10M can do, verses someone with $50M, versus someone with $100M. Lower paid stars can’t afford to take all of the precautions sometimes. There are a lot of name stars that don’t even make $1M per film or project.
Tiffany 🙂
Fair point. I still think any celeb has the ability to keep their lives secret. You have a good circle of friends and family, don’t call the paps, don’t frequent locations known to be pap hot spots, and keep your private life private. No matter what your finances are this obtainable. It might be harder to rent a private chateau for those making under a million per project, but that doesn’t mean theycan’t pull it off.
This happens everday and we don’t hear about it because they’re that good. Sandra Bullock adopting Louie comes to mind. Katie Holmes prepping to divorce Tom. Mila Kunis and Culkin lived under the radar for 9(?) years during the prime of her career and no one knew. It’s possible is my point.
Florc, to some extent that is true, but most people’s lives must include non-family and trusted friends. If you do anything in the world (go to a restaurant, take a flight, get your house cleaned, buy a gift), you expose yourself to the potential that someone will tell someone else, not just that you were there, but what was said. It can be hard to imagine, but some people sincerely get a thrill from sharing even minor details about a celeb. If a celeb makes enough regularly to hire “people” (lawyers and business managers), that enables them to have a bit of a buffer.
Sandra Bullock and Katie are examples of how their many resources were able to secure privacy for them, because they had excellent legal representation. Katie would not have been able to do what she did if she was not a part of that power couple. Her individual earnings as an actress could not afford that level of stealth. Kind of funny, when you think about it.
Tiffany
Katie’s father is a lawyer and helped assemble a team for her. She also collected dirt very well. I wouldn’t doubt it if some lawyers waved their fees to take down a scientology member.
While many of the celebs that keep secrets have wealth I think they could still remain private and under the radar if they chose to.
this is hilarious. After 10 years and 6 kids, pitt finally made her something other than baby-momma and yet all you want to talk about is Aniston?
I agree. Let’s talk about how they got married to steal George and Amal’s thunder and remain the international power couple, which is what the National Enquirer will probably be reporting any day now.
About who?
Congrats to the happy family!
I don’t think Pitt “made” her do anything. She may have been the one who decided that the marriage should happen. Most women with any sense and the means to support themselves do not want anything to do with marriage. Way too confining and not cost effective. It is nice, however to be married if you have children together. The only reason.
Lol. Right. Isn’t it time to put this nonsense to bed. Neither couple cares about the other. The only people that care are those keeping this imagined feud and jealousy alive.
Highballs on the screen with this mega chuckle 🙂
NOW Aniston can finally marry Justin. it’s what she’s been waiting for……
Nope. No the Aniston-Theroux ‘engagement’ will be over. They’ll announce something saying they don’t feel the need for a piece of paper Blah, Blah, Blah.
Either that, are they’ll ‘suddenly’ feel the urge to get married this weekend … just a startling coincidence it occurs one week after the Jolie-Pitt nuptials, mind you. “What? We were planning to get married over Labor Day weekend all along! Weren’t we, ma Babe?” 🙂
Congratulations, Angie and Brad!!!! LOL! How about ‘them’ Balls! 🙂
*giggle
There will be raaaaaaaage at this PR coup, mark my words 😈
*Pops rosé* Congrats!
*grabs industrial size bag of popcorn*
Nah, this calls for vodka Kool-Aid and a big bowl of nuts.
And bubble hash! *packs vape & eagerly waits for Kitten to show up*
Now I feel bad because I seriously couldn’t care less about this marriage.
But now that I’m here I’m going to smoke all your weed, drink your booze, and eat the sh*t out of your nuts.
Ditto, TOK.
puff puff pass, b*tches. no bogarting!
Who do I have to blow to get some tater chips up in this hizzay?
*grabs joint from Doofus*
Apparently Barbara Walters. Hurry, spaces are filling.
Haha, I think that was a reference to their Miraval rose… which is absolutely delicious.
Mike Nichols called. He says you’re not invited.
You might need two industrial sized bags, mimif, I think it’s going to get prettyyyyy sloppy up here today.
Scoot over, mimif. I’m coming in for a landing. I’ll bring the SmartWater.
Lol don’t forget to get a blow out first. This is gonna take a while.
that would need industrial size vodka to remove its blandness!!
Wow, good for them, I love that no one knew.
Kiddo, that was my grandma’s drink, Orange kool-aid and vodka. My cousin’s and I used to try to con her to get sips. You’d be surprised how often it worked.
Vodka Kool-Aid is very convincing, no surprise there.
blue marie! I literally summoned you on another thread and now you’re here! Let’s sing and celebrate my sorcery.
Oh, ho, ho
it’s magic you know
never believe it’s not so…
Hey ho, hey ho, hip hop hooray!
Oh yes, a lovely crisp rose(insert accent here). Ain’t it great? I hope the children had a smashing day of it all.
No idea what you say to newly-weds…anyway: “Love Love Love”. 🙂
@mimif
Rose for me too!! Which one did you choose? 🙂
Mirival 2013, baby!
@mimif Glad you are here- I have a bone to pick with you!! Not about the jolie/Pitt union..I’m happy for them-hope they had a balls. Oh, no dear-I’m out for revenge cause the other day, YOU got me curious to find out what a Cisco Adler was. I am now in treatment, @mimif. Not that I’m nuts or anything….
LOL!!!!!!!!!!!
Lmfao kri, I’m sorry (no I’m not) but that is one of the best things ever to happen to the internet. His socks! And the cocaine on the table is just the icing on top of those dangling nuts of glory.
*throws rosé at kri in treatment*
Let’s party!
Now that’s how it’s done!! Congrats!
Sorry, Snazzy, we posted the exact same thing at the exact same time. Great minds and all that. Lol
I just saw that too! 🙂
Cunning plan, using the distraction of the Emmys!
Tbh, I would’ve much preferred wedding coverage to that snoozefest, but hey.
Congrats to them 🙂
Exactly! Clooney et al should take notes. 🙂 Congrats to them!
Congratulations to them!
(Also, well done in keeping everything undercover.)
Bloody hell, these comments have blown up quickly! 93 and I swear it was only posted about 15 minutes ago.
Predictions for the end of the day? I’ll say over 300.
Totally. I’m betting 400+.
Ooh, the price is right. I’ll go with 370.
453!! 🙂
I’m betting the internet’s internal switchboard will implode on itself, creating a fold in the space-time continuum and we’ll all relive Aug. 28 when we first heard the news. Over and over again.
Just kidding. I’ll go with 600.
454!
My guess is 400 because there should be a new thread with more info I just saw Brad’s wedding ring @DailyMail. TMZ will probably get copy of marriage licence soon.
15:15 BST and we’re already at 234.
Yeah, I’ve lost.
486
Kim1 for the win.
You guys ‘do’ realize that ‘you’re’ the ones posting/inflating the comments, right? 🙂
@Emma – the JP Lover- I have no idea
what you’re talking about
I’ll say 750.

Kim1 for the win.
I see what you did there.
Can I get on this? I say 525 before the day is out.
Damn you’re funny OKit.
GOOD FOR THEM!!! I am truly impressed. They kept the whole thing out of the spotlight! It was an actual wedding, not a media circus. I think it’s great and I think the kids will be happy about it.
I am so impressed too! Good for them, they wanted an actual wedding and not a spectacle. I don’t know why, but this makes me really happy – what a great day when two of my favourite celebs get married (gahd that makes me sound sad haha).
I cannot wait to see pictures – IF we get to see any!
@Littlestar, who wrote: “I am so impressed too! Good for them, they wanted an actual wedding and not a spectacle. I don’t know why, but this makes me really happy – what a great day when two of my favourite celebs get married (gahd that makes me sound sad haha).”
Very well said! I couldn’t agree with you more. I’m very happy for them and even ‘more’ happy they did it for ‘them’ and not to create/reap PR benefits from the wedding. 🙂
Brad and Angie are proof positive that a celeb can keep the wraps on their private life if they really want to. The fact that they were able to keep her health issues and their wedding secret until they were ready to announce it tells me that they have a close, trusted inner circle and don’t surround themselves with sycophants and hangers-on most like most other celebs. This only makes me like them more.
Yup. Nice work all round.
Completely agree! Also tabs/blinds don’t know crap about their life, so anything they print is full of it.
This just makes me smile. The tabloids with all their stories just got smacked upside the head with a major brick. This is proof positive that there are no “sources” that give out information on them. The tabloid stuff is all made up. This should have been evident after the double mastectomy, but this just solidifies it. If you want to keep your life private, you have to live your life privately.
Pitt is doing Fury work, so they had to say something since he is wearing his ring, which explains why the news was released. Good job for all of them.
Well said, I agree, they show you can keep your life private. Who you have in your inner circle are those people who you trust. You don’t just add anyone to it, because you are big in Hollywood, you add those you genuinely like and trust.
Those celebrities who complain the press/tabloids spoil things, yes they do at times, but if you really wanted to keep things quiet, you would know who is in your circle blabbering things to them.
Congrats to the happy couple! Good Job at the stealth wedding. They knew the paps always expect them in France and since they are to go to Malta no one really stalked their property like they normally do.
Yes, wow, talk about flying under the radar. I love it!
Now that’s how it’s done. Congratulations.
🙂
Oui! Well done Brangelina!
Yes this is how it’s done. No publicity but quite and probably simple. Congrats to them both and other celebrities please take note.
Can’t help but think this kind of celeb marriage has so much more hope for it then the usual circus (ala Kardashian) that so many embrace. Here’s hoping they are happy and damn good job making it about their family and their lives without making me deal with months on inane covers talking about every detail at the grocery store! For that alone, I am making a donation to one of their charities in their name today.
Lol, now instead of tabloid covers about the Unholy Triangle, we’re gonna get covers of whether or not Jon Voight was invited, whether or not Jane Pitt hates Angelina, the ‘drama’ before the ceremony….tabloids should hire ME!
Nice idea! I like them as a couple and only wish them happiness and health. Good on them!
“Can’t help but think this kind of celeb marriage has so much more hope for it then the usual circus (ala Kardashian) that so many embrace.”
absolutely agree. the “circus” ones are usually about making a spectacle. ones like this are simply about the commitment and the happy couple (and, in this case, happy family).
Virg – I’m not going to lie! “I wonder if Jon Voight was there” was one of the first thoughts that popped into my head! Lol.
@VC
Jon Voight was not invited, and when informed of the wedding, said, “That’s nice.”
He would have blabbed about it had he known.
Yes, done with class and subtlety. Really happy for them and their beautiful family.
Yes it is!!! Proving that even a huge event such as a wedding DOES NOT have to be known about by every tabloid in advance. It is possible for celebs, if they so choose, to fly under the radar. Perfectly done. Congrats to them both and their children!! 🙂
Seriously, if a huge couple like Brad and Angelina can keep their wedding private and a small affair-I’m giving a side eye to all those other ‘big name’ holly wood couples. *cough Clooney cough*
I really don’t think Clooney wanted to keep his engagement a “secret” He wants to blab it to the world. That’s what makes it hard to believe – its out of character for him. I for one think its the real thing with him (finally!)
Lol! Congrats! They did it while everyone was busy watching clooney!
Congratulations to them both! Lovely family.
Woo hoo! Félicitations and champagne for everyone.
Now let’s watch this thread go crazy.
ETA by the way I just wanted to add that this proves that if the most famous couple in the world can get married without anyone even suspecting it, any celeb can stay under the radar if they want.
So much for those who said those two were attention seeking.
Yeah, and have a double mastectomy without anyone knowing too. 😀
Seriously! *cough**cough* Leann Rimes*cough*
+1. Just said the same thing about flying under the radar above before I scrolled down.
@mimif, that is an incredibly serious event to keep to yourself. You must be a very strong lady to be able to do that. Amazing.
I’m surprised they made an announcement at all. But perhaps they were concerned someone would sell the news, so they wanted to get in front of the story?
I know, right? Mad props to these two for keeping their inner circle tight.
@Maum. You speak the truth about current celebrity culture. There is a way to keep your private life under wrap, and be visible when you have the need.
Awesome!
And that’s how it’s done people.
Yep, the third time down the aisle usually means eternal love. At least she didn’t do a Kim Kardashian third wedding in first wedding white…as least I don’t think so.
I do think that that’s the reason that Brad and Angelina didn’t get married right away. I think it was Angelina who didn’t want it. I always felt that Brad would’ve married Angelina within a few years of them getting together, but Angelina held off.
But the big difference between Angelina and Kim K. is that Angelina seems to have learned from her previous relationship/marriage mistakes. I think the only true wedding/marriage Kim has ever/will ever have is with that producer that she married when she was what?? 18? She just seems to have gone downhill. And she and Kanye don’t really have a true, real relationship to me. No matter how long they stay married. I don’t think they spend more than a few days here and there with each other.
Bitter, party of one – your table is ready with the sour grapes you requested.
Lol. Let the insanity begin. *pops popcorn, sits back*
I guess her dad wasn’t invited.
I wonder if anyone besides family was in attendance.
I think he was in L.A. for the Emmys, wonder if he even knew they were getting married.
Mine is an arse-hole like Voight and I didn’t invite him to my wedding. Glad if she didn’t either, he has spewed quite a bit of venom against his daughter during the years.
Yep, and expect a bitter statement from him in 3… 2… 1…
I get the feeling that the only reason he is in her life, is because she has kids. It was the same with my mom and her dad. He was a horribly shitty father. He didn’t abuse her or anything like that, but she said that he basically acted like she (and all five of her siblings) wasn’t even there. Like he never asked her how she was doing, how school was, or anything like that. She said the only real memory she has of him doing anything with her, is when the whole family went fishing (this was when he and my grandma were still married) and she lost a pole, so he slapped her across the face.
He did eventually become a really great grandfather–I don’t remember him, as he died when I was a baby, but according to my older sister, he was an amazing grandfather. My mom figured that he was trying to make up for the mistakes that he made with her, et al, but yeah.
So that’s why I never shade anyone who are estranged from their parents (especially when it’s well documented in Angelina’s case)….
@Virgilia – yeah, me neither when it comes to anyone who has ‘difficult’ parents. My dad was the same as your granddad; he tried to make up for shoddy fathering in the last 3 months he was alive. Too little too late, and at least I don’t have to worry about not inviting him to my wedding (if, my some magic, I ever get married) as he’s dead.
I think Angelina have mentioned before that she and her father don’t really talk about the past anymore, that they will not try to fix things but instead look forward. She said she realized that she didn’t want her children to grow up not knowing and not being able to spend time with their other grandfather which i think is really mature and nice of her to do.
Anyway, congrats to them and i wish they’d last longer than typical hollywood marriage. This was very unexpected and surprisingly good news!
@Fluffy
That’s basically what my grandfather tried to do. He was alive for a few years after I was born–my sister is eight years older than me–so he focused a ton of energy on her and the rest of the grandkids.
But yeah–my mom always said that if the treatment of her father had any bearing on her future actions, then my older sister would’ve never known her ‘amazing’ grandfather.
This is how I thought they’d do it, no muss, no fuss, just do it.
I love it.
Me too.
Same here.
These are the moments that make life worth living. ANISTOBRANGELINA IS DEAD. We can move on!!! LOL.
Yeaaaah, you say that. Guarantee we haven’t seen the last of the Uncool Bermuda Triangle!
But what would the gossip world be without it? XD
Dream on, Lilly. See comment #2.
The Triangle of Doom is the Suge Knight of the gossip world–it will never die.
Wish I could “like” your comment on here, OKitt.
Brilliant.
Shit. You win everything, Kitten.
*throws Kool-Aid at your muumuu*
OMG. It means that Brad is already cheating on Angelina with Jennifer. And Jennifer is pregnant with Brad. And this wedding was only because Brad found out that Angelina is dying and there was no much time left. But Angelina faked all health problems because she knew about the affair. And now she is planning revenge. She is going to kidnap Brad Jr. from Jennifer and escape to Cambodia…
Bahahahaha! True dat!
Oh that comment is just so perfect. Lmao!
Suge Knight will now and forever remind me of the Aniston/Jolie/Pitt triangle.
Props to OKITT for making me actually spray coke at my screen. In the history of me being on the internet that has never happened before.
Its a nice thought, but now we can turn our eyes to “Jennifer is so jealous about Brad and Angelina getting married, now SHE has to get married too!” (See comment #2)
Now whenever JA does get married, its going to be because she was seething with jealousy and rage. So stupid.
LOL I think Aniston’s marriage could have taken place a lot earlier if she wanted…. I think she is not that interested at all. If she gets married in a short time.. well she will probably be compared to Brad and Angie wedding for sure… Stupid, but gossip works that way :-/
@Lady Macbeth
I remember last year, after that second PEOPLE cover of JA’s, that said that she was putting her wedding off….I made a comment that basically said this–If I was her, I’d rather that I get married FIRST so that when any comparisons are made (and you know that comparisons WILL be made, no matter what), that MY wedding would be compared to THEIR wedding. Not the other way around…..
But agree–gossip works like that.
Stupid? I wouldn’t put it past her. We’re talking about the same woman who announced her engagement 3-4 weeks after Brangelina. Same woman who covered People saying everything is ready and the wedding is happening anytime soon right after that faux Brangelina wedding surfaced. Same woman who covered People after back to back Jolie mastectomy cover declaring how her wedding is on hold even if nobody asked. It doesn’t take a genius to realize that it’s not a coincidence but a very good PR move for her. Just wait. 3 – 4 weeks from now she’ll announce something explosive. Either a wedding, a break up or pregnancy.
Agreed, Hissyfit.
Paparazzi don’t care about them in France anymore, so it was good timing.
LOL. Okay.
Not an insult, just the truth. It’s not the same rush it used to be every time they landed in France.
Ask Kanye, he knows.
I dedicate this to all the celebrities out there pretending that paparazzi constantly chase them (which we already knew it isn’t true).
This is proof that if you want you can be off the radar and have a private life.
i wish Brad and Angie a happy life together.
Here! Here!
Cheers, well said.
+ 1000000000
Exactly. They have a choice when it comes to privacy.
Well done, B&A!
And to the tabs and bloggers that claim to have detailed info and write B.S. blind items about them yet haven’t managed to break a story about them in years.
Yep. It also proves that they treat their staff with respect and kindness… no “insiders” have ever leaked stories about their private lives. You can only be *so* secretive; the rest comes from surrounding yourself with people you can trust (and who can trust you).
Yes!!! It’s not that hard to keep the paps off your back. It can be done :)!
Exactly. Cheers!
There are also celebrities that don’t have the money, power or clout to shroud their lives in secrecy. Not everyone is Brangelina.
And most of those, call the paps themselves so that someday, somehow, they too might become Brangelina.
Which celebrities “dont” have money? Some celebrities have all the money in the world and make sure there are paps available to document their lives every time they open an envelope.
@ataylor, exactly!
@Jen, and do the celebs that don’t have the money, power and clout really need to shroud anything in secrecy? They are the ones that call the paps for every little thing they do, hoping it will make them seem more relevant then they are.
The money, power and clout help, especially at this level of fame. But you also have to want the privacy.
@Jen. I think there’s a bit of truth in what you say. I think the people in Brangelinas life are secure in themselves and their finances and will not sell Brad and Angelina out at this point. But I imagine it took a long time to get to that point. I’ll be the first to say that all celebrities have to play the pap game and they know it. What I guess is unfortunate is that “friends” of celebrities will play it for them and in a way that wrecks a carefully maintained public image-and those “friends” do it for instant money and THAT must be a kick in the teeth.
A very interesting point you’ve asked us to consider -well done:)
That’s definitely true. They can afford the exclusive estates, private travel accommodations, and even pay-offs to prevent certain stories from leaking… but still, I think about all the “insiders” who blab details about other celebrities, and I know it’s because they get treated like peasants and don’t care about staying loyal. The fact that Angelina has had the same stunt double and assistant for more than a decade speaks volumes about her character.
You just made a contradiction there. If some celebs aren’t famous enough or powerful enough then the paps wouldn’t be interested in them anyway.
Exactly, paola.
Absofreakinglutely.
Cheers!
You certainly can be completely off the radar, but I’m sure it takes a lot of secrecy, a team of ruthless lawyers, lots of security, and a willingness to never just go out strolling in the street in major cities. Of course lots of people do call the paparazzi, but I am positive Brad and Angelina would get ruthlessly pursued if they attempted to move around in a “normal” way.
This.
Well said Paola!! +1,000!!
They kept that sh*t on lock down. Wow. Makes Clooney selling his wedding look extra budget.
Isn’t Aniston on a press tour right now? Ouch.
Wondering how you feel about Heidi Bivins. If Aniston and T marry, will you say, “Aniston’s former position is now open. Just saying.”?
yes cause 10 years later now is the time for a mistress
The problem you have is that there was no affair with this couple. There was no cheating. Don’t project your bitterness and failures on an innocent couple.
PS. Brad and Aniston were only married for 4.5 years, and a couple for 6 years all up. Perhaps you should get your facts straight on more than one thing.
I keep thinking this is an April Fools joke but in August. I say well done to these two for keeping it under wraps.
They managed to keep it under cover until Thursday, when it happened Saturday. Well done Jolie-Pitts!
Huzzah! I wish them many, many years of wedded bliss. The kids must be thrilled!
ETA: I hope they release at least one photo of the ceremony, but maybe they didn’t get all dressed up for it. They seem like pretty casual folks.
I agree that the kids will be thrilled! Congrats to the happy couple.
I hope they release a photo too, I’d love to see how gorgeous they looked. Really they could both have worn paper bags and it wouldn’t matter being the stunning couple that they are.
My guess is they will probably release one pic to the highest bidder for charity….love them!
Yes, I think so too. I can’t see them selling it for their own personal gain.
Fervently praying/whispering, please don’t let it be a black sack, please don’t let it be a black sack…
Lady D,
It might be an off-white sack 😉
Also hoping for a photo! And LOL @Lady D 🙂
Well, I mainly want to see Empress Z’s bridesmaid dress… It’ll be a masterclass in girlie!
Awesome. Very best wishes to them and their family.
They kept it quiet because they wanted to…anyone can keep their life private but most of these famewhores want helicopters hovering over their wedding. Which is fine, but don’t pretend like you don’t love it!
Congrats to them. I hope they last forever.
After nine years of shacking up and six kids, it seems rather anti-climatic…but I’m sure his parents and the fans are happy.
Yeah really. Not a big deal in practice.
Poor Gina
You Mad,Boo?
My local CBS news just did a Breaking News Story HAHAHA
I am a big fan news made my day Congrats to them !!! 🙂
I’m so happy that tears popped up in my eyes!
Granted, I do not know them personally. Granted, it really is none of my business.
BUT I am a Brangeloonie of the first degree and her movies, especially, have brought great joy to my heart. And I think that their children are lovely.
It really makes my heart sing to think of the joy and unity of their family on their special day.
🙂
+1,000
Totally agreed! 🙂
Remember when John F. Kennedy married Carolyn Bessette? No one knew a thing until after the fact. Celebrities can have a private life if they want it. We know what we know because they want us to know it.
Congratulations to the lovely couple and the entire family. I am certain the event was terrific.
this news is so left field… er vineyard!
i hope it’s true and not actually a scene from By the Sea.
Live Long and Prosper, Happy Couple (and kids)!
A great example of how celebs can choose to keep things under wraps. Genius choice of date when everyone was speculating the Clooney wedding would be held last weekend(thus diverting all the attention)
Big Congrats to the beautiful couple and their children!
yayyy!!!!pops finest Mirabel Rose !! cheersss
Shit is the bomb, I have a closet full and could almost pop a bottle for breakfast just to celebrate.
couldnt agree more with you mimif , scoot over ,iam bringing the casket and joining y’all ladies , (f only i could get Bomer for some harmless dancing ,we would all be set)!!
Lucky Mimif
It’s lauded in this month’s (tres posh and tres authoritative) House and Garden as one of the world’s top 3 roses. I’m determined to get hold of a bottle or seven.
Slainte!
They sell it at Costco and Whole Paycheck here in Cali! My friend in WA state gets it at her local wine shop, so it’s around. Starts out clean and bright, that softens into a deeper floral finish. Love it (way too much).
mimif, you are so lucky! I have been wanting to try their wine for a LONG time now. No idea where to find it in Canada, if it is even sold here!!! I might have to try and find a bottle somewhere the next time I’m in the States.
@mimif- I haven’t known many 92-year-olds with a closet full of wine.
Very modern, grandma.
My collection of muumuus is outstanding.
YAY!!! Congrats to the whole happy family!
Aww!!!
Congrats to the happy couple and their family!!!!
I’m so happy that they could keep it *completely* undercover.
That’s how it’s supposed to be in case of a wedding: NOBODY’s business!
So happy they made it through and could cheat everyone out of any exclusive report. Go, you two!
Congrates! That was smart quickly and quietly. I wonder if Aniston even cares anymore? She has moved on (even tho it’s that creepy Theroux guy)
So happy for them and their children. Love the fact that nobody had a clue that it was happening.
Congrats to them and their family. Mazel Tov.
Once again, they conduct their private lives – PRIVATELY.
Countdown to “obligatory faux Jennifer Aniston reaction piece” in 3..2..1..
I kid, I kid. They seem to have a really, genuinely happy life together. I wish them the best.
I thought they were waiting until gay and lesbian couples could marry? Guess they really never elaborated on that. Good for them, anyhow. Sounds like a nice, peaceful wedding.
They did make that comment but then they bowed to pressure from their children who wanted a married mommy and daddy (and cake!). I guess that shows their kids are more important to them than their politics.
Maybe their children mean more to them at this point than what they said years ago. Are we going to hold all celebrities to what they said years ago and still haven’t done?
In their defense: I live in Massachusetts and G & L couples CAN legally marry here. Nationally, the law change is spreading. The tide has turned.
So, technically, it is now possible. Just move here (it’s beautiful) or simply fly in for a weekend and get it done! One Love.
I think when Utah went, they could legitimately feel the tide was sufficiently turning to justify giving in to their kids’ wishes.
I’m inexplicably happy about this. Congrats to the happy couple. I know their children are very happy.
George, this is how you do it if you really wanted your privacy, not all of your leaks and family saying things.
I’m so happy for them and bet it was a sweet and unpretentious but beautiful wedding and day for them and their children with friends and family in attendance.
OH, DAMN, DAMN THIS IS THE WEDDING I HAVE BEEN WAITING FOR . BRAD AND ANGIE IS WRONG FOR DOING THIS, WHAT ABOUT US FANS, SAY IT ISN’T SOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO?
Take deep breath and count to 10.
*sideeye
This confirms my belief that all that junk from celebs about paparazzi and “we don’t have privacy” and “I’m hounded” is just that. . . junk. If two of the most famous celebs in the world can get MARRIED and we don’t know until Thursday and they only way we DO know is because they told us. . . . well every other celeb just needs to get over themselves and lock their stuff down.
Nicely played. . . nicely played.
Yep. Considering how in demand they are, Angelina kept her health issues and her wedding secret. I guess it truly isn’t impossible.
Oh ok. *shrug*
Well done.
This is how you know that you’ve got good friends and family. Almost a week goes by and no one blabs?
Also, smart move doing this when everyone else is so focused on the awards shows. That’s real slight of hand, magician stuff.
I second/third/fourth everyone above who’s saying that pretty much every other celebrity needs to be quiet about the paparazzi.
Now, will we ever see photos/a photo of the dress?!?!? #seriousquestion (I’m thinking something sacky in cream…)
A leather sack! Oooh, or maybe a dress suit. That would be cool.
It would be interesting to see. Because she’s never had a real wedding before, I don’t think. I think she just did the courthouse thing with JLM, and she went to Vegas with Billy Bob. Both times she wore like leather hot pants and a tshirt.
I also think that’s why she and Brad were engaged for so long. She’d always met and married her husbands within a few months….always very quick. And the engagement period (at least imo) is supposed to be the most romantic part of your life…that’s when you’re high on love…even if you have six kids.
I think just the idea of being engaged makes you a lot happier and giggly, even if you’ve been with someone for years and years…for me, it’s the feeling of not wanting stuff all year, but getting excited for what you will receive for Christmas or your birthday.
@V.C I would love if she wore something like Bianca Jagger’s wedding suit! That sort of still appropriate yet enormously cool vibe is awesome to see at weddings 😄
I’m actually quite glad/impressed they were able to keep it undercover. Although it seems like they’ve been married for about the last 10 yrs (or however long they’ve been together) so it’s more just dotting the i’s and crossing the t’s. The conspiracy theorist in me would’ve sworn that they got married years ago and were just waiting to drop a whole “oh, these little gold bands? Yeah, got them at our wedding 5 years ago” or something similar.
I seem to recall Brad saying that he wanted to give her an engagement, since she’d never really had one before. Both of her previous marriages they just went and got married instead of having an engagement and planning a wedding.
“Something sacky in cream”, LOL so funny and likely true.
I think the kids’ clothes will be the more interesting
Oh finally. I’m sure it meant a lot to the kids to participate in the ceremony. Very nice.
That’s how it should- and obviously CAN be! No doubt anymore that it’s possible to keep it private, and quiet. My heartfelt best wishes to them! Although I have to admit that the gossip part in me would just LOVE to see pics, and know the details…like, was her father there??
Good for them for keeping it secret, take notes Mr clooney.
Hahaha—omg. I don’t know WHY, but I’m just sitting here laughing. I think I’m laughing, because I was looking at pics of them, a few days ago, touching down in Nice–I’m guessing a few days after they got married.
I hope they release a few pics…pretty please.
And someone needs to start rumors about whether or not Jon Voight was there……
Well, Jon Voight was at the Emmy’s and he has a nasty little habit of talking out of turn so…since he didn’t blab anything on the red carpet…I say no.
or some heavy duty threats and promises.
but i’m leaning to “learning about his daughter getting hitched from the press like everyone else”.
(isn’t that his line when news of her mastectomy broke?)
No way Angie told blabbermouth Voight…she probably specifically waited for him to be at the emmys so she could do it without him!
Fantastic! It will only be better if they sell the photos & donate the funds. Mostly because I’m dying to see them and that seems to be their MO.
I second you, GiGi!
I love Jolie and would love to see her wedding pics, but on the other hand I am pretty sure if they sell the pics and donate the money, a lot of people would still saying that they both—especially Jolie for some reason 😉 — as an attention whore. Wonder why. 😛
Anyway, I’m soooo happy with the news. Congrats to the happy couple and their kids!!
First, congratulations. I see this as proof they are extremely solid, Brad’s not crying every other day and whoever is the tabs Brangie “source” is either feeding them lies and Brangie is laughing at the tabs OR there is no source because Team Brangelina is so tight knit they don’t do leaks! (I think it’s the latter.)
Second, y’all know somebody at People Magazine just got fired because the statement was released to the AP and not them!
Great comment. I agree about that poor People staffer.
Ha! I would love it if they did. I noticed that AJ and BP are selective about who they release to. I remember Today hoping to get whatsherface back to interview AJ since AJ liked her and interviewed with her before.
True.
When Knox and Vivienne were born, Brad released the news to a local French newspaper and eventually, other news outlets caught onto it.
congrats to them and their lovely family!
Aw Congrats. See some celebs can keep their private lives private and get married without a circus around them if they try a little. 🙂
Congratulations, Jolie-Pitt family!
This is how it’s done. No one knew. Not one whiff of rumor about them making it legal.
THIS is how you get married. Well done. Congratulations to them!
Congrats to them!
wow!
congratulations to them, the wedding sounds lovely.
OMG!
“Zahara and Vivienne threw petals” So cute, I wish we could have pictures!
Sweet!
Real stars don’t have to televise their weddings.
I’m dying to know what the king and kueen of the golden toilet think of this wedding. You just know that this wedding is going to make headlines around the world and almost nobody knew it was even happening.I’m sure the royal couple are extremely puzzled.
Holy cow. I’m going to forever be in awe of Brangelina’s ability to keep their stuff out of the media until they’re ready to release it. And congrats to them.
REALLY. ITAWY.
They are amzing in that field… Other H-stars should take a note and learn. !!!
I got soooooo excited over these news that I actually got afraid of myself….
That’s weird.
ikr !
I go away for five minutes and in that time a Brangelina article gets posted and has over a hundred comments. I don’t hate them but I don’t get the love either.
I’m pretty indifferent to them as a couple. Although I do like Brad.
Me too….I was on here this morning….took a break to take my dogs for a walk and come back and go….what…what…wwwhhhaaattt…WWWWHHHHAAAATTTT!!!!!!!!!!!! lol
Lol
Yup, same here. Congrats and everything but don’t get the sanctification that goes with these two but, you know, have a happy one.
Congrats to the couple and their family.
I only have two things…and one is congrats to the whole Jolie-Pitt family! And second, notice how low key it was and on the down low.
And that’s how you do it!
Congrats to those crazy kids. Baby number seven on the way?
Congrats to them! Please please please let there be pics!! I know it’s wrong and it’s private and I love that they did it on the downlow and putting pics out may defeat the object of all that…. but I really really really want to – need to! – see what a Jolie-Pitt small private wedding with all the kids participating looks like. And what Angie and the girls wore!
Please Gossip Gods, grant us this. 🙂
Jolie walked the aisle with her eldest sons..so her father wasn’t there? I wanna know who attended the wedding! And what she wore (a white sack?)! Damn, I want details!!
I bought one bottle two months ago and it was fabulous – I went back to WF and it was sold out 🙁
She doesn’t get along with her father who was in LA for the Emmy Awards seeing as how he was nominated and such.
Cue the Jon Voight pity-party violins along with the press conference complaining about how “My daughter excludes me from her life…blah blah”
Yeah… it’s entirely possible.
Personally, Angelina having her eldest sons walk her down the aisle makes more sense than having JV or James do it, particularly Maddox.
Yay Congrats to them! I wonder if I can go to Whole Foods this weekend to buy some of their wine. That’s some good wine.
Well, WOW!
Congrats!
🙂
🙂
So happy for the two of them and the kids.. Wish them the best in life…
I’m so happy for them!!!! My favorite hollywood couple,wishing them all the best. I love that they’re so private.
Wha da whaaa??
It seems that Angelina was otherwise occupied when it came to doing that ALS challenge.
Congrats to the JPs. Would love to see some pics, but cool with not. It stokes the imagination.
Where is it written that they must share every minute detail of their lives? Can they not keep anything to themselves? Weddings, pregnancy, divorce?
Are you serious? There are hardly any details.
They do not share every detail of their lives, months go by with no sightings or reports. They are not on social media, they are rarely photographed.
People would notice their wedding rings eventually, why not release the news?
I think you are just bitter. Too bad
Um, what? We don’t know anything, except where they got married, when, and that their kids took part in it (and that it was small and friends/family only). That’s not a whole lot of detail.
And they only announced their pregnancies when it was obvious, adoptions just before/after they brought the kids home…..
Why not announce that they got married?
Lol — dont’ feed the troll.
Funny! For a celebrity couple, this IS keeping it to themselves. No multi-million dollar wedding with paparazzi at the gates, no photos of the bride “leaked” to the outlets. No article in Vogue detailing the flower arrangements and bonbonnieres. No helicopters getting arial shots (like Brad’s last wedding). This is about as stealth as it gets. Leaking some info now, after the fact, is about not pretending that no one cares. OBVIOUSLY, a lot of people care. This thread already has over 300 comments.
Hats off to the wedding planner. Congrats to Brad, Angie and the kids, best wishes for all.
It’s funny, when I first heard they were a couple I thought that was the biggest mismatch I’d ever heard of. Now nine years and six kids later? Who knew? But in that top pic where she is beaming and he is making kissy face? I’ve never seen her look so relaxed and genuinely happy.
Good on them for the cool and classy moves. I wish them and their lovely children years of joy and rock solid commitment to each other as a family. May they please be the ones who make it and are truly happy in the process. For them of course, but mostly so those wonderful kids never get their hearts broken.
I think the reason their family means so much to so many people is because after so many years of broken families and rampant divorce they are showing us that blood IS NOT thicker than water, but that you can piece a family together from all over the world and have it be more solid than blood. That’s why I don’t ever want to hear of them breaking up. I want their lovely family to work. It gives us all hope that we can pull our shattered pieces back together and make a family of our own.
Very well said Jax!
I´m with you all the way!
Beautiful sentiment
Jax, those pictures are of them at a premiere for Maleficent….I think in London, maybe? Not sure. But I remember because everyone kept saying that she looked like she came straight out of ‘Dynasty’ with the shoulder pads.
First to “…where is it written…must share details…”, I actually don’t think it’s a troll (mind you, I haven’t read the entire thread so I’m just being a devil’s advocate on the comment). I think that was sarcasm and we misread. Perhaps a failed attempt at lambasting those feeling entitled to details of JPs private lives…telling the guilty tsk tsk, you should be ashamed and mind your beeswax…
To Jax, “…mismatch of AJ and BP…”, funny you say that because I felt that way about BP and JA, and I know I was on board with the majority. It’s what happens when you see a girl next door type paired with a world’s sexiest heartthrob type… I guess appearance wise BP and AJ to me make more sense because they are a perfect match in sex appeal. I think the BP and JA pairing fed the fantasy of the plain Jane ending up with the leading man – which is what you see with the SATC Carrie Bradshaw/Mr Big; Kristen Stewart/Robert Pattinson; etc.
Also, +1000 on Blood NOT Thicker Than Water. There is no person in this universe I hold exempt from basic principles of accepted behavior. I’m from the school of thought family has more duty to honor you rather than be held exempt from shitty behavior. My mother always raised us to keep it in the family and basically to let someone walk all over you because they are family. Funny thing is, that hasn’t worked well for her and as kids it was very disconcerting to see our mother let people always take advantage without her setting any limits. It does not serve anyone who loves you well to witness abuse at other people’s hands without you standing up for yourself. But perhaps since she’s very successful the lesson perhaps resonates in business but not your personal life??? Sorry for the length. I just think it is a misguided way to live your life and I admire Angelina for choosing herself in the toxic parental relationship dynamic and I am doing the same thing with my mother.
Congratulations on doing what millions of people do every day, I guess?
Man, the tabloid editors must be seriously pi$$ed that a California judge issued a marriage license in California. Where are their people who keep an eye on the vital records/marriage license offices? That was the only way they knew that Beyoncé and Jay-Z were getting hitched.
Clearly, tabloids enjoy making $h!t up versus doing the leg work associated with ‘journalism’.
TMZ has a dedicated computer (and hired moles) at the LA County Hall of Records/L.A. County Court specifically for breaking news such as this. HOWEVER, in certain cases, people (OKAY, Celebs and certain Diplomats) can request certain licenses be kept out of the public record for a time due to safety concerns. Also, that license could have also been issued outside of L.A. County completely bypassing TMZ’s mole/access.
That’s explains it.
Thanks for the heads up.
My ex had a confidential marriage license with his first wife, so there are no records to be found. The ONLY people who can request a copy of it are the two of them. And trust me, they are the farthest thing from a celebrity or a diplomat you can get, haha!
In fairness to Amal and George the marriage laws in California are different than England and does not require publishing the banns. In California you can choose to have your marriage license public or not. When I went for mine more than twenty years ago we chose to keep ours confidential. The only caveat is that you must marry in that county. I suspect they may have had a civil ceremony in California first.
Also this must have taken quite an effort to keep it secret. As we know they’ve been papped at toy stores and in public, and I very much doubt they make a habit of calling the paps, they are a prime target. I’m happy they managed to keep it private but in my opinion that doesn’t prove the opposite, that all other celeb couples are media hounds. The Jolie/Pitts have just really gotten really good at it.
Also where is their primary residence? They don’t have to file in LA. I think most people assume they live primarily in LA but I could have sworn their primary place was in New Orleans???
Their primary residence in the U.S. is their compound in Los Feliz in L.A. County proper. That home started off as Brad’s bachelor pad. Brad also has (or used to have) a home in Malibu. Angelina used to (or still owns) a home/condo in NYC. I believe the New Orleans home is joint property as well as Chateau Miraval. They also could own property outside of L.A. Country in CA and use that address for their marriage license (Santa Barbara/San Diego/OC) but we’re simply not aware of it.
Do they still have the house in Santa Barbara? It could have been done there.
Lucky Charm – Yes, they still have the residence in Santa Barbara.
One minor quibble with the announcement there cannot be a “nondenominational civil ceremony.” Nondenominational still means there is a church of some kind in the root of the proceedings, and civil means it’s a government thing with no religion involved.
I would guess it was worded that way because it took place in the chapel on their estate, and just confirming that it wasn’t a religious ceremony.
And the bride wore…black?
The photos are from a premiere, not the wedding…
I wasn’t talking about the photos. *wink*
I demand to see the wedding pictures! Lol!
Congrats, Angie & Brad!
Maybe this is why Anniston looks so depressed in the other post….Brad had just texted her the news! lol
same thought 😉
it just makes me laugh so much LOL
Yeah, and looked like she just threw something on, going by that terrible outfit. Her outfit was loads better on Jimmy.
yes, she looks terrible, or is she pregnant?
I’m postulating a theory; I think Jen knew because all of a sudden she puts herself out there with this flurry of interviews.
She’s promoting a film, the release date for which would have been decided upon MONTHS in advance.
And I doubt Jennifer Aniston cares, beyond the annoyance of being repeatedly asked about it…
I don’t think that she will be asked about it, mainly because it will reflect badly on the person/news outlets asking for a comment. After all, it’s been ten years since the breakup.
Her only real worry is dropping a passive aggressive jab about it because, again, it’s been ten years…
Aniston did not know, she is just out promoting fall films. If she knew, Stephen Huvane would have immediately leaked that shit.
As is, Brad and Angie announced it themselves. Nobody was told who didn’t love them enough to keep it secret, and Jen doesn’t fall into that category.
STEALTH.
In this age of Kardashian/Kanye/Goop narcissism ….God I love this couple.
Suck it all the rest of you other celebs who can’t figure it out and whine and complain to the press. Suck it all of you who think walking the paparazzi is like war and have never visited orphans in a war zone or helped people rebuild after a natural disaster. These guys always set the standard.
+1
Congrats to them, and kudos on keeping it quiet. Sounds like it was really nice.
I still think the most impressive stealth was Sandra Bullock’s secret adoption during Oscar season, but I’m impressed no one spilled the beans on this.
Finally. Now we never have to wonder or talk about it again. Congrats to them though 🙂
QQ–I just messaged my friend on FB, because I AM your mama…..I did freak out when I saw the news on the Dailymail. And I have a friend on twitter, who was messaging me straight away, saying that she’d knew that I would be freaking out and ecstatic…haha.
I love this–it’s like a damn mic drop. Drop the news and carry on.
Love! So happy for them and their family. Congratulations! I wish them all the best. Giddy that they were able to keep this major event completely private. The Brange are so awesome.
Good for them, and serious kudos for keeping it under wraps. I appreciate why they waited, but I don’t see how anyone can get super excited about it at this stage. Will they even release a photo?
I take a pretty passive interest in both people as actors and even less in the whole Brangelina saga, but I gotta give them a hand. It is refreshing to see a huge power couple like this avoid the PR machine. They don’t need to plant articles in Kneepads to get people interested. They just do, and then the internet blows up. Its kind of awesome. Good for them!
I wonder if they’ll do a post-wedding People article though, they seem to have had an arrangement with them for other stories. I would hope not, just keep it special for their family only, but who knows.
I don’t know why I’m excited but I am. Hooray for them and congrats!
I just want to add my congratulations for the happy couple and do my part to up the #’s on this thread. I LOVE them & yes it is really cool & yet not sure why but also anticlimactic to read that they were married…maybe I just need more coffee.
Congratulation! They and their six children deserve all the happiness in the world. I loved that they shunned marriage and that they supported marriage equality, but sounds like the right moment came for this celebration, and I wish them a lifetime of happiness.
Hilarious! I texted my mom as soon as I found out this morning too, and we were both so excited. My dad told us we were ridiculous haha.
Congrats to the couple and well played, well played.
I don’t care what anyone says..
I am so happy for them.. Congrats to my favorite couple.
THAT IS HOW YOU DO IT.. THAT IS HOW IT IS DONE..
BRAD AND ANGELINA JOLIE-PITT..
CLAPPING AND SCREAMING..
Ya, it’s going to be nuts at their next public appearance.
Yippeee!!! Finally, something worth me commenting on. May they continue to grow strong in their love.
Congratulations! I love this couple. Now, Kaiser, can you get us some details on the dress?
GOOD FOR THEM for keeping it classy and on the down-low. The next celeb to complain about a lack of privacy can take every single seat. If these two can pull off a secret wedding? Come on…
I am genuinely happy for them, I hope they last forever.
This is the best celebrity news ever. I think they are an awesome couple and I love to see happy people. Angelina and Brad seem like a strong couple. Glad they tied the knot and love how they let the children have a big say in how the ceremony would be. Very cool. I am so happy for them. Congratulations and may you have a continued happy life together. I hope their marriage last forever. Blessings to Brad and Angelina and their children.Their marriage actually has substance…how refreshing.
I can hear heads exploding all over Female First. Seriously though, this is wonderful news. Congratulations to the whole family
*tosses rice*
Loving the visual.
LOL!!! You mean those who insisted that he would never marry her because they were together so many years without making it legal? And because there was only one woman that he loved enough to marry, which was JA?
I just hope that they are in a containment room when it happens, because that would be quite messy to clean up.
*pops open champagne bottle and toasts the Jolie-Pitts for a job well done*
Oh gawd, I just popped in there and shouldn’t have. Beside the expected ton of comments that the wedding was a sham and the marriage is illegal, there were a lot of vicious posts about Aniston as well. “Fat Manny is barren”, etc.
That place is just a sh*t magnet. Now I want to take out my whole hard drive and plunk it in the washing machine.
Congrats to the beautiful and happy couple. I’m very excited and I’m glad they kept it undercover.
IBrad & Angie the #1 power couple can get married w/o the world finding out.. Even get the license in Cali .. Just proves all those celebs who claim they have no privacy (*cough cough Kim, LeAnn, Lindsay, etc cough cough) only have none because they chose not to have any privacy from the media and papa!
Excellent news! We all knew it would happen though.
I love them as a couple!! Yay!
for a long and happy life together! good for them
Hehe, they caught me off guard, lol! What a pleasant surprise!
Fantastic !
Congrats to them and to their lovely family !
Love how they got married on the down low. I adore Angelina, and have since Tomb Raider….Brad has grown on me. The chemistry they had on Mr. and Mrs. Smith…Can’t wait for By The Sea (which I hope is a fake title…)
My favorite couple ties the knot!!!! Very happy for them and their kids. Why are the first comments so snarky? What happened to all the conspiracy theorist on this couple and the people that said they would never marry? I’m glad they did it privately.
The heads are exploding at Female First, maybe I’ll pay them a visit today.
Wear a raincoat & rubber boots. It’s probably pretty messy in there about now. 🙂
Congrats to the newly weds! I’ve read she wore a white lacy dress with a veil. Don’t know how true that is but i would want to see a photo!
And i truly feel embarrassed for George. His efforts for a private wedding by issuing a no papz zone in Italy. Yet this super private Brangelina wedding happened! Lol.
Attention fame-wh*res (All Kardashians & Jenners, Lindsay Lohan, Elsa Pataky, other reality stars and celebrity social media junkies):
THIS is how it’s done. You can keep your personal life under wraps; and when the responses to your low key event goes into the 300’s, it shows your A-list status. No amount of pap walks, Twit pics, Instagrams, or verbal diarrhea you utter will ever put you on the same level as these two. It only confirms you’re C or D list.
+1000! No celebrity (A,B,C or D-list) will ever be able to complain about lack of privacy again without everyone laughing at them and rolling their eyes.
To be fair, this kind of discretion can only be had if you have the will and the resources. Private jets, a gated estate, a phalanx of security, hordes of personal assistants and a whole herd of lawyers to enforce the NDA’s you hand everyone involved. Then again, Kerry Washington and her husband managed to marry and Christian Bale and his wife birthed a child (whose name we still don’t know) all without anyone finding out until after the fact. It can be done.
Kerry baby girl name is Isabelle
Congratulations to the happy couple! I absolutely adore them together. I wish them and their kids nothing but happiness.

Wonderful news. Congrats. Wishing your family a very happy future.
Please show us a few pictures of the wedding.
Awww this is surprising news! I’m so pleased for them. I wish them all the love, health and happiness in the world in this new chapter in their lives. I do believe Angelina and Brad are the real deal and are in this for the long haul. They are proof it can be done in private and not become a huge spectacle for a big payday. I can’t wait to see the photo!!
Whoops at those crazy lunatics at ff and jj that claimed Brad would never marry Angelina lol 🙊
Hilarious isn’t it! Wonder what nasty stuff they will have to come up with now… lol.
It’s a bold move, Cotton.
Congrats to them and their family! 🙂
That’s so cool that they did it so under cover, the tabs will really bring the haterade on them now lol. Good on them for making it official, it will make the kids feel more secure I’m sure. And so much for him ‘only’ marrying his starter wife, and ‘never’ marrying AJ, that argument has now been blown out of the water lol.
I gotta say, I was a bit skeptical about these two. I saw them more as a brand, like the Beckhams, and didn’t drink the kool-aid or buy the ‘great love story’. I just saw them giving lip-service to marriage, and saying the kids wanted it, but not until gay marriage is legal everywhere, they already feel married, etc.
But I like the way they did this, keeping it intimate. It makes them seem more authentic to me. Good for them and congratulations.
Such good news! Amazing.
This is how you do marriage!! Spend serious time with your person, as a true couple and partnership. Make that work for some years, share your hopes, dreams, ambitions, to ensure you bring out the best in each other, and then, then: make it legally binding. Most celebrities get married first, then get to know their partner, and then express their public disappointment through a lengthy divorce.
Here, is a marriage I would have gladly attended had I been invited. A true celebration of a long lasting partnership, and one which has produced passion and art, family and love.
What a phenomenally beautiful wedding it must have been. I would love to see a photo, but I think we probably never will, at least until someone writes a memoir and releases an instantly iconic image. Sigh… To think we’ll all have to wait.
A great match. May they have many more happy years.
I am so happy for them, their family and their close inner circle, and of course all their fans. You don’t need a tv special of a wedding spectacle (Kardashians, Duggars, I’m looking at you) to show the world you got married. Under the radar doesn’t even come close to describing how they pulled this off, but for them I’m glad they did. Congratulations Brad and Angelina, wishing you a long and happy marriage.
I am so late but a big congratulations to them! 🙂 That’s adorable to read all her kids were majorly involved in the ceremony! 🙂
Congrats to Brad and Angie! So thrilled they made it official. The kids must be on cloud nine.
I saw this last night and for some reason I wasn’t taken aback or surprised. I just wanted to sleep over it and come back later to comment to let those of y’all whose heads exploded to comment first…
I never thought that Brangelina would famewhore their wedding like Kimye or Clooney. They’ve been together for nearly a decade, they’ve been engaged for quite some time, and a wedding was imminent. I always believed that they’d have a secluded wedding outside of the USA with only their children and a few other people in attendance. It doesn’t surprise me that they’d do it in France where they seem to spend a lot of their free time with their children.
I think they’ve always been subdued about every aspect of their lives. Even with Angelina’s double mastectomy she handled it with grace and professionalism. Whenever they’ve done a story with a celebrity magazine, it was never like, “Look at us, look at us! We’re so important.” They are superstars simply because of who they are and the work they’ve done over the years both in Hollywood and through their humanitarian work.
So no, getting married in secret was not a surprise. It was just an affirmation of how they have chosen to live their lives in the public eye since they became a couple. I really don’t care if they choose to sell their wedding photos or never release them to the public. I wish that more celebrities (and even normal people) would follow suit and stop making their weddings a public spectacle for everyone to see.
A big congrats is in order for a wonderful couple!!!! Kudos for them to make it so private…
May god bless them many yrs of happiness and full of love…their love is such a joy to watch…
It was about time, but I don’t get the excitement. People act as if they were friends of these two. Anyway, hope they keep on having a happy life together.
They both want Oscars this year – this will be great for their campaigns. And don’t you know that THEY know it!
I never doubted they would get marry. Was just waiting.
Well now I can’t wait to see them together as a married couple.
It really has been an amazing year for them.
I’m just so glad for them and their children.
Their love is real..
Well, it appears my fantasy wedding/life with Angelina is destined to forever be a fantasy – thanks Brad >:(
LOL…
I’m kidding. I LOVE AJ (only girl I’d ever switch teams for) but I’m so happy for her, Brad and their kids!!!
Omg I grow more in love with this couple every day. So classy.
After the loss of Robin Williams it’s lovely to hear some positive celebrity news. I’ve always believed they’re the real deal. You can see how much they love each other, and clearly their family loves them too because nobody said a word.
As a gay person I don’t mind that they got married after saying they wouldn’t until everyone could. They have 6 kids who all wanted the marriage to happen and that trumps politics.
I really hope they go the distance, and I believe they can.
So happy for them !
Wish Brad, Angelina and their kids, a life full of blessings and happiness !
But Aniston is pregnant and Brad’s the father!–said the tabloids next week. I bet we’re going to have a dose of tabloid fun coming up.
Congrats. I couple i was forever obsessed with got married. Im sssooo happy for them.
