Did Brangelina Snub The Academy!?

Posted on Tue Feb 3, 2009 09:15 AM PDT

Usually it's the Academy of Motion Picture Arts and Sciences that's responsible for a snub, but this year, it appears to be the other way around!

Though other A-listers (Kate Winslet and Anne Hathaway, to name a few) attended the Oscar Nominees Luncheon in Beverly Hills yesterday, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were noticeably absent. But why?

Turns out the couple are currently overseas promoting their films, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button and Changeling, so they decided to stay there rather than fly out to LA for the event. But with the amount of time and money they spend traveling, you'd think they would have showed up!

Do they think they're too good for the Academy, or was this simply a scheduling conflict? Hmmm...



Think something like this will affect their chance at taking home Oscar gold? We'll see!

X17, THIS IS ONE OF THE MOST RIDICOULUS STORY YOU HAVE EVER WROTE. IN ITALIAN WE SAY: SENZA TESTA NE CODA, PURA MERDA. YOU ARE REALLY OBSESSED WITH THESE TWO, BUT YOU COULD ALMOST TRY TO WROTE INTERESTING STORY INSTEAD OF THIS SHIT.

They could be a whole bunch of different places. They have to choose what they can and cannot attend. You're so quick to judge and blame them.

A very good question... X17... Why ?
With this couple, we can wonder a lot of question... This couple is very bizarre...

Too good for the Academy? Hardly. But they are sore losers. Neither are front runners and they know it. In fact they're mainly in the race for the PR they bring, which is largely is self generated, as verified in a recent NY Times article, but was widely suspected anyway. On top of that, word is mounting that Pitt took Benicio Del Toro's rightful spot as a nominee.

Given all this, there's not that much incentive for them to show up, EVEN if they weren't abroad promoting. Best to do what they do best, drag the kids out for stunt promotion. Hey it's working right?

All with the evil words and spite;.. and you are SO perfect? X17 is bad to say such naughty things about the couple not knowing the whole story, I agree

i agree about ledger best performance i hae ever seen. underlay character saw all the movements.
anyway they are very much in love aren't they you can see, it's real.
why does the press still associate his ex & not hers. why are they even doing it. 7 children i see no room for an ex let alone reporting it.
they look beautiful together.
i wish it was just her foundation that made her look like that.
where is that foundation that knocks offs 5 yrs adds length colour & shine to hair plus brings back innocent memories.
i am so bored.

She looks like Morticia Adams

This is a stupid story. X17 is so biased it isn't even funny. Meryl Streep and Philip Seymour Hoffman also didn't attend. Why isn't there a headline about them snubbing the Academy and thinking they are too good to attend? Brad and Angelina were in Tokyo for the BB premiere. It doesn't make sense to take a 12 hour right after the premiere for a lunch and picture when they probably have other committments in Asia or went to London for the BAFTA Awards. Tokyo to LA to London is not a fun trip especially with six kids. Meryl only had a 5 or 6 hour flight from NYC and didn't think it was worth it.

I doubt they can be one day at the oscars and the next day in Asia with all the kids... lets not be that poisoning...

She and Brad need to do a remake of the Addams Family. Where he fawns all over Mortisha everytime she says a French word.

Inotice in these pics that it appears Angie's nips have headed South.



Posted by: OHH DUH

haters simmer down.. X17 only mentioned Brad & Angelina not attending but forget to mentioned that Merly Streep didn't, X17 ACCEPT the fact that among the nominees Brad and Angelina are the MOST FAMOUS AMONG THEM all of them.

Why would they go just to sit there all bored knowing that they aren't winning anything. Theve showed up a few times and just gotten blown off, so why bother. They can stay at home and look at nude Jenn photos all night. Then make more babies at the fab thought of winning Brad away from his wife and leaving her with the like of John Mayor. Wouldnt you do the same. Poor Jenn. again.

They need to disappear of the face of the earth. Hey people, don't you get it? They want you to wonder about them in awe, like they are some sort of gods. Lets ignore these biotches, like they have the plaque and then maybe then will become more humble. Their hugh heads can't fit through the door is the real reason why they didn't go to the Oscar luncheon!
