Video footage of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie at the SAG Awards

As always, whether they win or not, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are very popular on the red carpet, so there is always a nice amount of video footage from their events.

Here, Angelina Jolie talks kids with Entertainment Tonight. I’m sure she would be happy to just talk acting and she must get tired of always being asked the same old questions, but I know that it’s very easy for me to talk endlessly about my kids if someone is asking me about them, so I think it’s just the mom in her. Regardless, she is very gracious in her interview.

I thought it was funny that he thought they had already gone to Japan and Angelina said they were actually heading to Japan the day after the SAG Awards (today). No rest for the Jolie-Pitt family! They’re heading out there for another premiere of The Curious Case of Benjamin Button so we can expect more photocalls and red carpet photos soon!

And that’s what I love about this family. Angelina doesn’t have to go with Brad to Japan. It’s not her movie, it’s his and she doesn’t need to be there to promote it. Fans would be disappointed if she didn’t show up but they would certainly understand. However, they stick together as much as they possibly can, supporting each other. If the kids are being homeschooled now, they don’t have a set schedule to follow and despite the constant arguments as to whether it’s detrimental or not to move them around so much, I think the kids are probably happier to be with both their parents rather than missing whichever one is filming or traveling at any given time.

I also like, in the second half of the video, when Brad acknowledges how nice it is for both he and Angie to be honored by these nominations together.

More video below the cut!

Lisa Rinna was a bit overly star-struck which is understandable but also unprofessional, and I have to give kudos to Brad and Angelina who looked a bit uncomfortable but tried their best to carry the “interview”.

If Lisa looks at this she’s probably going to be thinking, “Oh jeez, what the heck did I do?!”

Meanwhile, E! did an interview that seemed to irritate both of them. Angelina mentioned her clothing criteria lately is comfort but Giuliana basically went on and on and ON about personal things rather than talking about the work they’ve done, the work for which they had been nominated.

Angie kind of laughed uncomfortably and even said outright that it seemed like “an odd moment for this” when she was asked what Brad has taught her about life and she was right. At an awards event, you expect to be asked about working on your movie. And they probably expect even the repetitive questions about how on earth they get ready and look so fantastic with six kids at home. But I’m sure Angie didn’t expect to be asked some sort of earth-shattering question about the depth of her relationship with Brad. Annoying!

When it was Brad’s turn to deal with Giuliana, he tried his best to be evasive, even saying (after she asked him the same question, what Angie had taught him) that he’d like to move on to the next question and saying it was impossible to be deep with the “glam cam” showing close-ups of what he was wearing (being “undressed” by the “glam cam” was how he put it). Then he tried to skip over it by talking about the work but he didn’t really get his groove back – he did have some very nice things to say about Mickey Rourke and Taraji as well, which is always great to hear.

And just for fun, here’s a video that a fan put together of a whole TON of photos of Brad and Angelina on the SAG red carpet, set to Maroon 5’s “Wake Up Call”. Very nice!

    After what I’ve heard about the E! interview (I’ve decided against watching it myself, as I don’t want to support interviewers who make them uncomfortable), I don’t blame Angie and Brad one single bit for snubbing Ryan Seacrest at the Globes, if in fact it was an intentional snub.

    I also won’t blame them a bit if they decide to stop granting interviews to E! As much as we all love hearing about the kids, there is a time and a place for reporters to ask questions about them, and the RC is NOT that place. As other pittwatchers have been said, at events like the SAGS, reporters should be asking them about their movies, not their kids.

    I have also noticed that Angie doesn’t seem to like it when reporters ask her personal questions in interviews about her humanatarian work, and I don’t blame her! That’s also not the time and place to be asking about the kids.

    I mean, when that CNN reporter was interviewing Angie after/during (I forget which) her visit to Iraq, she had no business asking Angie to confirm her then-rumored pregnancy! An interview about the situation in Iraq is definitely NOT the time for personal questions, and I’m glad Angie put that reporter in her place!

    As for visiting Cambodia or Vietnam…Maybe they’ll visit both!

    I agree that the interview by TBS of Angie was a good interview but Brad’s interview with the same station but different guy was really silly! Brad was voted best dress on TV Guide fashion police and Lisa just lost it with Brad. She was in awe interviewing Angie and Brad. I bet this makes Angie and Brad laugh. They are so down to earth and do not feel like they are royalty at all. They are just a mom and dad enjoying their kids and their lives. They are so cute together.
    Off subject, saw preview of “Not Into You”. Jen looks out place with the other actresses. Thought Jennifer Connelly was in it also.

    This is not about the interview on ET or E! but I found this photo of Angelina and Brad – I don’t know if someone has posted it or the one similar to this one, if this does not say – This man loves this woman – I dont’t know what does.

    Kind of offtopic but I’ve seen some negative write ups about Brad’s response about fame and promoting films when he was at that Newsweek Oscar roundtable. This is just another example of how media can really spin quotes to make them sound negative. Among the quotes are:

    “This publicity machine is out of control. It’s everything we didn’t sign up for.”

    “There’s this whole other entity that you get sucked into. You have to go and sell your wares.

    “It’s something I never made my peace with. Somehow you’re not supporting your film if you don’t get on a show and talk about your personal life.

    “It has nothing to do with why I do this.”

    And now some are saying that Brad doesn’t want to promote his films. But I think what he is saying is that the way media spins the publicity, they don’t ask about the film. Rather they would rather talk about the personal lives of the stars of the film. Listening to and reading the various press conferences these two have had to sit through to promote their films, it’s almost always that they are asked more about their personal life and their children and some other silly questions than about the film they are promoting. And I think that’s what Brad is saying that he doesn’t like about the press run for the films, not that he doesn’t want to promote his films.

    Thanks Rayna for the link. That was a nice interview even though he did throw in a question about the kids at the end. I was even more irritated with E! last night when they took out excerpts from their interviews with Angelina and Brad and presented them as though they volunteered the personal information. They played up all the personal answers and made it seem as if E! was triumphant! I think I, too, will boycott the show from now on. You can get more honest and up-to-date information right here. Thank you Sherry.

    the TBS interviews were really good, I even liked the way he interviewed Brad like he didn’t know who he was.

    very nice interview that TBS did Rayna now that’s how it should be done. He had studied and had background info on her film, he asked the question about what her favorite movies were giving her the chance to plug Brad’s film cool and the picture Lou thank you so much for posting that – it brough tears to my eyes. How I wish I could find that kind of love.

    isacutie, I completely agree with you! I’m actually GLAD that Brad said, “It’s something I never made my peace with. Somehow you’re not supporting your film if you don’t get on a show and talk about your personal life.” Hopefully that will quiet down the h8ters who love to complain about the fact that Brad and Angie talk about wanting privacy and yet talk about their personal lives.

    Going by Brad’s comment, it sounds like he’d actually rather NOT have to discuss his personal life everytime he has to promote a movie. Unfournately, it seems like most interviews refuse to respect that.
