The Brangelina Clan (And Their Bulldog) Hit New Orleans



Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie and the kids have headed south to the Big Easy ahead of a charity event this Saturday to benefit Pitt's Make It Right foundation.

The Jolie-Pitt kids immediately hit the streets of the French Quarter with their nanny and manny and their adorable pet bulldog Jacques.

Pitt will attend the $1000-per-person "A Night to Make it Right" gala this weekend, which will feature performances by Sheryl Crow, Rihanna and Seal. The foundation -- which has built affordable, eco-friendly housing in New Orleans since Hurricane Katrina wiped out much of the lower 9th ward -- will aim to build 150 homes with proceeds from the event.

Ellen DeGeneres and American Idol judge Randy Jackson will host the evening. DeGeneres is a New Orleans native and has already donated more than $2 million to the foundation.
