Ex-‘Friend’ believes her ex-lover truly is the Pitt(s)
BEWARE A BEAUTY scorned. Sure, hell has a fury, but it’s got nothing on a Jennifer Aniston talking about her soon-to-be-divorced-from husband Brad Pitt.
In the September issue of Vanity Fair magazine, the 36-year-old former “Friends” star had this to say about Pitt’s recently dyed blond hair: “Billy Idol called – he wants his look back.”
Of the photos of Pitt frolicking on a beach in Africa with Angelina Jolie – Pitt’s “Mr. and Mrs. Smith” co-star and the woman widely blamed for breaking up the Aniston-Pitt marriage – and Jolie’s 3-year-old son, Maddox, Aniston said, “The world was shocked, and I was shocked.”
And of a fashion spread in W magazine – a concept of Pitt’s – that showed the actor and Jolie as a 1960’s-style married couple, Aniston had this explanation: “There’s a sensitivity chip that’s missing,” she said.
But, hey, she says, it’s all good. “Am I lonely?” Aniston asked. “Yes. Am I upset? Yes. Am I confused? Yes. Do I have my days when I’ve thrown a little pity party for myself? Absolutely. But I’m also doing really well.”

Not everyone thinks that Michael Jackson needs to ask the public for forgiveness. Certainly not rapper Jermaine Dupri, who is dating Michael’s sister Janet Jackson. “I was him, I would have gone on ‘TRL’ immediately and said look, ‘Everybody who wanna say something about me, good, y’all could say whatever y’all wanna say, there’s nothing you can say about me at this point, no more than what just happened,’ ” Dupri said. In case you live under a rock, Jackson was acquitted in June on child molestation charges.

Lohan’s dad not a candidate for Father of the Year
London’s premiere of the film “Herbie: Fully Loaded” missed its star, Lindsay Lohan. The 19-year-old actress flew home to support her mother, Dina Lohan, during her parents’ divorce proceedings. Her father, Michael Lohan is serving up to four years in prison after pleading guilty to a variety of offenses, including attempted assault. Lohan is demanding a cut of his daughter’s earnings, something his daughter disputes. “He didn’t do anything for my career except go out and not come home at night,” Lindsay Lohan told W magazine. “So I don’t think he deserves anything. He doesn’t even deserve my respect.”
