Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie save Christmas

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie boost little Hollywood business

A struggling toy and flower shop in North Hollywood got a nice boost from Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie this week. With business not doing all that well, the owner was praying for some kind of Christmas miracle.

Brad and Angelina dropped in this week and bought $70 worth of toys for the kids and then gave the owner a $130 tip as a thank you for good service. However, what turned things around for the owner was that Brad and Angie posed for some pictures with the owner and his family. When word got out that Brangelina had been shopping in the store, business shot through the roof as people came by the store to do some shopping of their own.

TMZ has some video as well.

    Everything the couple touch seems turned to gold. They are so much loved by so many and the one doesn’t, majority is just jealousy.

    Awwwww, I HEART ANGELINA & BRAD. Looks like the owners are a Latino family – even better *kiss* *kiss*. My heart is full.

    (Is North Hollywood a Latino neighborhood? Wonder how the Jolie-Pitts happened upon this store.)

    Bless this couple, Angelina and Brad. It seems like they don’t fail the spirit of giving to the needy in a time like this. I know Angelina always have this tradition this time of the year. Either she goes to orphanage or help people in need.

    The man is so sweet in the video too, and he’s all aflutter about Angie (and Brad, but more Angie, actually). If she saw this I think this might be one of the best compliments she’s ever received… imagine someone telling you that you’re beautiful because your soul is beautiful. How lovely.

    And I’m really glad they inadvertently helped make this guy’s holidays so much better.

    The thing is I doubt they went for that reason. Just an example how anyone can make a difference just doing ordinary run of the mill things.

    I almost cried when I saw how happy that shop owner was when you watch the TMZ video. Merry Christmas to him.

    I’m late guys, been working. Oh my, what a lucky guy, imagine his business is so slow then here comes Brad & Ange & all of a sudden his business turns the other way around. What a x-mas miracle for him & his family. Brad & Ange have the Midas touch & I’m glad they help the vendor this time of year.

    Brad and Angelina are the BEST!…no question about it. I wish the Paps would leave them alone in New Orleans….there was video on TMZ where this one DUMB guy ends up video taping them both bicycling with their 3 kids, and you hear one of the children say “I’m scared”…possibly in reaction to the pap. What jerks! There really should be a law!!

    “Awwwww, I HEART ANGELINA & BRAD. Looks like the owners are a Latino family – even better *kiss* *kiss*.”

    Why is the fact that the owners are a Latino family “even better”?

  13. viva brangelina

    God Bless them! Love the Jolie Pitts even more!

  14. BlessBrangelina

    Very Happy for this man, but what were they doing in that area?

    Luane;

    that was probably a tmz pap, they are terrible and rude too. They seem to want to get a reaction from their targets; god or bad??? they don’t give a sh*t.

  15. Charlotte

    This is one great couple. I wish them the best.
