Brad Pitt Reportedly Intimidated by Angelina Jolie's Legal Dream Team Brad Pitt Reportedly Intimidated by Angelina Jolie's Legal Dream Team Summary: Angelina Jolie has hired two powerhouse lawyers to join her divorce legal team. Brad Pitt is reportedly “terrified” of Angelina Jolie’s divorce lawyers, Hollywood Life reports. The publication said that the actor is worried now that Jolie has added attorneys Bert Fields and Pierce O’Donnell to her legal team, which already includes Laura Wasser. Related: $400 Million, 6 Kids at Stake in Angelina Jolie-Brad Pitt Divorce "Brad is terrified that Angelina has hired this 'dream team' of lawyers," Hollywood Life stated. "It makes him feel like he's a criminal, and he can't stand the fact that he has to have supervised visits with his children. He's playing along but he is so insulted and he can't believe how drastically his life changed in a matter of weeks." Jolie filed for divorce from Pitt on September 20 in Los Angeles County. She stated the reason was "irreconcilable differences," but TMZ reported that she was disgusted with him after a recent plane ride. He reportedly was inebriated and became so verbally abusive to their children that he was reported to the Department of Children and Family Services. While Pitt and Jolie have not publicly commented on their divorce since it was first announced, media outlets have stated that the main battle for the pair is for the custody and visitation rights of their six children. Brangelina reportedly have an ironclad prenuptial agreement that specifies how their $400 million fortune will be divided. Related: Brad Pitt Under Investigation for Abuse Jolie is seeking full custody, and according to The Daily Mail, she has physical custody of the kids until October 20. Until then, Pitt is allowed to see them only on monitored visits with a therapist present. According to Us Weekly, the divorce has taken a toll on Pitt, 52. He allegedly cries and calls his parents every day, and he is in “bad shape.” Pitt met Jolie, 41, on the set of their hit film, Mr. and Mrs. Smith. They have been together for twelve years, but have only been married since 2014. Jolie’s new lawyers are well-respected in the field. For instance, Bert Fields is one of the nation's leading entertainment lawyers who has represented brands such as The Weinstein Company, Dreamworks, and MGM. Pierce O’Donnell has been named one of the 100 Most Influential Lawyers in America by the National Law Journal. Wasser represented Johnny Depp in his high-profile split from Amber Heard, and she handled Jolie’s divorce from Billy Bob Thornton. It is reported that Pitt was so surprised by Jolie’s divorce filing that he did not have a lawyer at the time. In late September, the actor hired attorney Lance Spiegel to represent him.

The film features Leonardo DiCaprio, Brad Pitt and Margot Robbie. Tarantino and movie fans were given a teaser trailer where the opening shot was that of Melody Ranch’s “Main Street” set. Veluzat said that the production team had been working with the studio for a couple months, from planning to setting up to filming, and for him, it was a special experience. Tarantino has filmed two of his last three movies at Melody Ranch in Newhall, according to studio manager Daniel Veluzat, and he’s praised the SCV in interviews and conversations with local residents. He really does like it here, said Veluzat, in reference to a question about why Tarantino has filmed his movies at Melody Ranch. “He calls it a special place,” he said.

Oh, and she also has some choice words about her late husband's bandmates, her newfound ancestry, Russell Crowe, Angelina Jolie... By Holly Millea | Mar 25, 2002 Image credit: Courtney Love Photographs by Jean Baptiste Mondino COURTNEY LOVE IS IN A LIMOUSINE TAKING HER FROM Los Angeles to Desert Hot Springs on a detox mission. "I've been on a bit of a bender after 9/11," she admits. "I've got a lot of s--- in me. I weigh 147 pounds." Which is why she's checking into the We Care colonic spa for five days of fasting. Slumped low in the seat, the 37-year-old actress and lead singer of Hole is wearing baggy faded jeans, a brown pilled sweater, and Birkenstock sandals, her pink toenails twinkling with rhinestones. On her head is a wool knit hat - 1 - that looks like something she found on the street. Last night she sat for three hours while her auburn hair extensions were unglued and cut out. "See?" Love says, pulling the cap off. "I look like a Dr. Seuss character on chemo." She does. Her hair is short and tufty and sticking out in all directions. It's a disaster. Love smiles a sad, self-conscious smile and covers up again. Lighting a cigarette, she asks, "Why are we doing this story? I don't have a record or a movie to promote.

  • The Angelina Jolie Effect: How High Celebrity
    Evans et al. Breast Cancer Research 2014, 16:442 http://breast-cancer-research.com/content/16/5/442 RESEARCH ARTICLE Open Access The Angelina Jolie effect: how high celebrity profile can have a major impact on provision of cancer related services D Gareth R Evans1,2,14*†, Julian Barwell3†, Diana M Eccles4, Amanda Collins4, Louise Izatt5, Chris Jacobs5, Alan Donaldson6, Angela F Brady7, Andrew Cuthbert8, Rachel Harrison9, Sue Thomas10, Anthony Howell1, The FH02 Study Group, RGC teams, Zosia Miedzybrodzka11,12 and Alex Murray13 Abstract Introduction: It is frequent for news items to lead to a short lived temporary increase in interest in a particular health related service, however it is rare for this to have a long lasting effect. In 2013, in the UK in particular, there has been unprecedented publicity in hereditary breast cancer, with Angelina Jolie’s decision to have genetic testing for the BRCA1 gene and subsequently undergo risk reducing mastectomy (RRM), and a pre-release of the NICE guidelines on familial breast cancer in January and their final release on 26th June. The release of NICE guidelines created a lot of publicity over the potential for use of chemoprevention using tamoxifen or raloxifene. However, the longest lasting news story was the release of details of film actress Angelina Jolie’s genetic test and surgery. Methods: To assess the potential effects of the ‘Angelina Jolie’ effect, referral data specific to breast cancer family history was obtained from around the UK for the years 2012 and 2013. A consortium of over 30 breast cancer family history clinics that have contributed to two research studies on early breast surveillance were asked to participate as well as 10 genetics centres.

    Uncertainty in the Movie Industry: Does Star Power Reduce the Terror of the Box O±ce?¤ Arthur De Vany Department of Economics Institute for Mathematical Behavioral Sciences University of California Irvine, CA 92697 USA W. David Walls School of Economics and Finance The University of Hong Kong Pokfulam Road Hong Kong Abstract Everyone knows that the movie business is risky. But how risky is it? Do strategies exist that reduce risk? We investigate these ques- tions using a sample of over 2000 motion pictures. We discover that the movies are very risky indeed. Box-o±ce revenue dynamics are a Le'vy stable process and are asymptotically Pareto-distributed with in¯nite variance. The mean is dominated by rare blockbuster movies that are located in the far right tail. There is no typical movie be- cause box o±ce revenue outcomes do not converge to an average, they diverge over all scales. Movies with stars in them have higher revenue ¤This paper was presented at the annual meeting of the American Economic Associa- tion, New York, January 1999.

  • Brad Pitt Is Unleashing a New Rosé Champagne
    Since the brand’s launch, Jolie and Pitt, with the help of the Perrins have conjured Miraval into one of the world’s most popular rose brands. While breezy Provencal rosé has becoming their calling card, Miraval brought in outside help to produce the Champagne, a new style BRAD PITT IS UNLEASHING A NEW for the house. In came the Péters family, a famed family of sixth- generation Champagne makers who tend Le Mesnil-sur-Oger in ROSÉ CHAMPAGNE Cotes de Blanc. Kate Dingwall | August 31, 2020 Fleur de Miraval will contain a blend of Chardonnay (75) and Pinot Noir (25%) made in the saignée method of Champagne production. It’s five years in the making, with the liquid aging three years on lees in the Peters caves. “Fleur de Miraval Rosé is the culmination of five years of work, research, and tasting done in the utmost secrecy,” Rodolphe Péters, head of Pierre Péters Champagne said in the press release. The Champagne’s first run will have just 20,000 bottles and a reported SRP of $390. The liquid is bottled in a black lacquered Champagne bottle with pink rosé coffret packaging.

Dubbed Fleur du Miraval, the Champagne is an extension of Pitt’s popular rosé brand Miraval. (Despite the celebrity backing, Miraval is truly a splendid iteration of Provence rosé, with a curving bottle, an orange-rose hue and a bright acidity of strawberry and lemon.) The exclusive bottle will hit shelves in the U.S.

  • By DAVID LESER Two Years After Heath Ledger Scandalised Sections
    By DAVID LESER Two years after Heath Ledger scandalised sections of middle America with his near- miraculous performance as a gay cowboy, he would light up the screen with another tour de force, this time as the lovelorn, heroin-soaked poet, Dan, in the Australian cult movie, Candy. Little known outside Australia, this film was based on a loosely autobiographical book of the same name written by Australian author, Luke Davies. In the film Ledger somehow managed to find his way inside the twisted, twilight world of the drug addict. I pull the syringe from her arm and drop it on the table and hold my thumb down over the tiny hole I’ve made. I release the tie with my other hand. Candy looks down at her arm like a child who’s relieved that the innoculation is over. Then she says, mmmm, and her facial muscles relax and she lies back on the bed and says, that is heaps better. Heaps better. Fuck oh God. Fuck fuck fuck. This is the best. Oh God, this is awesome. This was – as the New York Times commented of Ledger’s role – acting of the first order. “Ledger looks and plays the part of the scheming user exceptionally well. He’s deep in the character’s skin right from the start.” Ledger and his co-star, Abbie Cornish – who recently appeared opposite Cate Blanchett in Elizabeth: The Golden Age - had received their tutoring from an expert, a heroin addict belonging to a Sydney group called “Proud Users.” “Abbie and Heath got lots of lessons with a prosthetic arm on how to inject,” the film’s producer, Margaret Fink told Vanity Fair.

  • Death and Change Tracking: Wikipedia Edit Bursts Miles Lincoln
    Death and Change Tracking: Wikipedia Edit Bursts Miles Lincoln ABSTRACT Bursts have been used in prior informetrics studies to predict the emergence of new fields and trends in research by looking at the occurrence of common terms throughout a body of knowledge, such as the full text of a journal. If a sudden flurry of activity in a field can be observed, it may be possible to quantify and determine to what effect this new area will take off. Having identified a new variety of burst observed in the activity on a Wikipedia page following a newsworthy event, this study took an interest in what could be predicted by visualizing these graphs, as they represent a granular, instantly updated resource that can be observed and analyzed. Additionally, beyond prediction, can the analysis of this data correlate to other aspects of the subject of the Wikipedia page? For example, does the popularity of an actor correlate to the size of the edit burst on their Wikipedia page Burst, or spike, beginning at x=3 following their death? This study develops a workflow and These bursts are typically associated with some event related to appends scripts capable of processing data from Wikipedia that the subject of the page, such as a newsworthy event. The news can be applied to any sampling of pages to visualize bursts in reaches the general public, then one editor first updates the page activity from which one could look for correlations and make their to reflect this news [2], followed by a number of other editors own predictions.
