Maddox Jolie-Pitt gets some birthday time with Brad Pitt

Just because Knox and Vivienne are causing a commotion, it doesn’t mean a big guy can’t celebrate his 7th birthday in style. Maddox Jolie-Pitt and dad Brad Pitt hit the go-karts for his birthday. They headed to a Karting track in Brignoles, France and together they had a great time racing. Apparently they also got some pizza delivered to the track for a quick bite to eat. Check out the photos over here.

It just goes to show that even with two brand new babies dominating a lot of time, Brad and Angelina make sure to devote time to each of their kids, especially on such a special day.

I’m so glad Maddox got to do something really fun on his birthday!

    Happy belated b-day to Maddox.

    That’s how they give each child their attention specially on a very important day in Mad’s life. As Brad said, they love all their children equally.
    Happy birthday Mad !!!
    God bless the Jolie-Pitt’s.

    belated birthday greetings to Mad! love love love the greatest dad in the world Brad Pitt! GOD BLESS THE JOLIE-PITTS FAMILY!

  5. gena G. says:

    WE ALL KNOW BRAD LOVE THAT BOY SO VERY MUCH, SO HE HAS TO DO SOMETHING SPECIAL FOR JUST THE TWO OF THEM. BESIDE MADD PROBABLY BLOW HIS CANDLE ALREADY AT THE VILLA. JUST A LOVELY PICTURES.

  6. isacutie says:

    so nice to see them having a one-on-one…brad really is enjoying his life as a father.

  7. It is so sweet to see father and son together doing special things. Many of us have said Madd made Angie the woman she is today and he was also the one pulling Brad and Angie together as a family by uttering his magic word “Dad”, so he really deserves this. This boy will grow up to be a good and caring man like his father – just my feelings!

  8. susie says:

    Maddness is such a cutie. He deserves a truly special treat with his “Brad Dad” on his special day (I recall an interview with Angie who said that’s what Madd calls his dad). Just imagine all the responsibility on this little boy’s shoulders with 5 little brothers and sisters! I’m so happy his daddy is such a great role model for him.

    Fan from VN….your feeling about Brad & Madd is so observant. I couldn’t agee with you more on your assessment; both on being a great father & Madd

  10. Lucy says:

    Brad is enjoying fatherhood to the max. Happy belated birthday Madd.

  11. BlessBrangelina says:

    Happy Birthday Madd, hope you enjoy your special day Monday.

    Go karting seems like great fun.

  12. Toni says:

    Maddox is fortunate to be in such a loving environment. Alot has happened to him in three short years (from a family of two to eight) and it seems that his parents try to make sure he feels special, just like his siblings. I do love the daddy one on one time though.

    He takes after his father and mother and he is adventerous. He rides motorbikes, quads and go carts, just like his parents. Lucky kid!!

  13. ebdbmcc says:

    This is what a good parent is supposed to do.

  14. Bee Bee says:

    Happy belated Birthday Madd..
    May the Good Lord always bless you, Brad dad, Mommy Angie, Pax, Zee, Shi, Knox, and Viv always.

  15. Scooby Doo says:

    Happy Birthday Madd!!!

  16. ligaya says:

    I told my husband that I thought Brad fell in love with Maddox first, then Angelina. He thinks otherwise. :-) I think I’m right.

    I love seeing Brad together with Madness, and the other kids too. Never knew they made go-karts and ATVs in children’s sizes – kinda like those baby violins Suzuki students play.

  17. Ladi says:

    so cute!
    where is the bule color in Maddox’s hair??? was it temporary? It was very cool.

  18. Char says:

    What a wonderful dad Brad Pitt has become. I’d say he has definately found his soulmate in Angelina. HAPPY BELATED BIRTHDAY MAD…..

  19. YOCO says:

    I don’t think it’s hairdye in Pax and Mad’s hair I think it’s the hairspray you can use to put color in your hair My cousin bought some blue spray last Halloween. Because in the pics in the backyard a few days after Angie was released his hair had blond in it and the pics from People its blue and now its a different color. What do you guys think?

  20. Mary Ann says:

    Madd looks like you had a fun day with your Dad. I think it was great that Brad took him away for the day.
    Ligaya, you might be right, any red blooded man would be attracted to Angie, but that wonderful happy little boy would have had a big pull on a man who wanted children as bad Brad did.
    I am a firm believer that there is a plan for all of us, and I think that Brad and Angie were meant to be.

  21. Terry says:

    Interesting question about who came first. Sort of like chicken and egg. It is clear that he could not have one without the other. Maybe he secretly fell for Angelina, but knew he could not have her if Maddox did not like him. I think that was the purpose of the Africa trip where the first pictures surfaced. He seemed to be spending more time with Maddox trying to impress him. Also the pictures from her home in England, again, more Maddox interaction.

    But who knows, maybe Maddox wanted Brad for his father and he made it happen!! Smart kid.

    Also agree that the hair color is not dye. It changes too much.

  22. How about a combination of ligaya’s and Terry’s theories? Brad fell in love with Maddox first, and Maddox wanted Brad as his father so badly that he made it happen (by calling Brad “Dad”. Angie thought he said it “out of the blue”, but if this theory is right, then Maddox had planned the right moment to say it!). How funny is that?

  23. "another" Sherry says:

    However it happened, it makes you wonder how they weren’t together! I get it though. I married MY *sweetheart* and had a son. Soon I was divorced NOT even looking to remarry or anything, just dating. Most men would ask when my son was going to sleep– implying they’d be over an hour later. My son was almost five when I met my husband. He would come over and say, “I thought I’d take (Jason) to the zoo”. He would do things that I, as a woman just couldn’t with my son (obvious & not so obvious), & because I had to work he knew I regretted that his bio father just didn’t display affection. My husband showed such love to my son that I couldn’t help but fall in love with him. My son doesn’t even remember me being with anyone other than my husband. We’ve been together almost 30 years and happily married 26 years and have a total of three children and three grandchildren. I think the “sweetheart” thing doesn’t always make the best marriages. I really do NOT consider being married before. Soon, I’ll be 55 and couldn’t be more content in life. It is, as it should be.

  24. “another” Sherry, your life is a great story and some aspects of it resemble the “Brad-Angie-Maddox” story. I totally agree with you that the “sweetheart” thing doesn’t always make marriages last a life time. As Angie once said something like “you may have great sex with somebody, but if you and that person don’t wake up in the morning sharing the same purpose in life, then it just wouldn’t work”.

    Congratulations to you for such a happy ending!

  25. Thanks “another” Sherry for sharing your beautiful story. I responded but my post is currently under mod. I think am now competing with ligaya and Victoria for the “moderation queen” title!

  26. bradfan says:

    How great that the 2 of them could get away from all the craziness going on at home and have some fun.. and one on one time, I’m sure Mad had a grat time(Brad too) you can tell Brad loves the boy just by the look on his face in the photos. I wish Maddox many more Happy Birthdays to come.Such a cute kid…Hey do any of you think the JP kids are all starting to look alike? (aside from hair color and skin tones)They all seem to have a very similar smile, maybe genitics isn’t everything!!

  27. Mary Ann says:

    another Sherry, What a beautiful story. Congratuations on your many years of marriage. There is not to many of us. It seems that if there is a little problem, the husband or wife don’t want to take the time to work it out. They just bolt and then comes divorce.

  28. keats says:

    First I would like to say “Thank You” to Sherry for being an oasis in the middle of a huge desert of negativity. Thank you. I admire this family very much, after all the hoopla they remain as natural as possible under the most stressfull situations. IMO, Brad always wanted a family there is no mystery there and Maddox wanted a pal that turned out to be a Dad. There is a saying that goes: “Anyone can be a Father but it takes a special man to be a Dad”. Brad proved he is a Dad. I think they are all very lucky to have found each other. The alignments of the planets kind of thing. All children want to be different from the norm and I think that Brad and Angelina allows them to discover this. Hair color, so what!! They look healthy and happy and that is all you want for your children no matter how old they are. Also, that is how this family began with Brad and Mad being pals, Mad is growing up and they are doing “grown man” things. I love it!

  29. Ligaya says:

    Congratulations, “another” Sherry. What a wonderful accomplishment, especially in this day and age! I agree with Mary Ann, today’s couples are too quick to give up on each other – but I think that’s because we’re taught to have unrealistic expectations of marriage – the fairy tale happily ever after syndrome. The high school sweetheart works out for a lucky few, but it’s really a fantasy for the rest of us – our brains and adult character completes its development only when we’ve reached 25, and course we’ve changed since high school. I don’t think divorce should be made harder, though – I think getting married should be harder, kinda like getting a driver’s license (a learner’s permit, then written and practical tests) ;-) ) or a 3-day grace period where the license isn’t valid until 3 days after it’s issued. ;-) ;-)

  30. "another" Sherry says:

    You guys are THE best. Thank all of you for commenting on my own family. I’m “truly” humbled.

    Fan from Vietnam on my story resembling Brad, Angie and Maddox Story—–THAT is why their story is so plausible to me. You just KNOW there is something good about a man who can love another *man’s* child as much as his own.

    Mary Ann…No bolting here. Some people think marriage and/or relationships a
    o big deal and is some disposable “thing” when it gets “messy” When AJ talks of how she was successful in her career, independent, wwealthy & “in love”, yet, she wasn’t happy— I KNOW that feeling. Well, not the wealthy part—

    keats saying Brad always wanted a family there is no mystery there and Maddox wanted a pal that turned out to be a Dad. There is a saying that goes: “Anyone can be a Father but it takes a special man to be a Dad”.
    That is such a true saying isn’t it ? Also, I think speaks to either gender. Yoyou’re
    correct in saying Maddox wanting a pal that turned into Brad. I really believe it happened just like AJ said it did. Kids usually can spot a fake or forced love.

    ligaya–How sad but true how we are “taught” this unrealistic life we’re going to ALWAYS have. THAT is just TOO much pressure not to mention a complete LIE. I told our kids not to marry before they were 25-30— or, if they DID marry, at least wait on having children. I give AJ Mother credit for allowing AJ boyfriend to move in (Mom house) when AJ was only 14. Her Mother was quite special & intuitive in that regard. Angelina seems to be on great terms with all her ex husbands/boyfriend
