Brad Pitt On Oprah: Kid Stories, Angelina And Happiness (VIDEO)

Brad Pitt sat down with Oprah two weeks ago, and the episode, excerpted earlier, finally aired on Wednesday. On the show, which he did to promote the upcoming "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button," Pitt talked about how funny his kids are, imitating Shiloh screaming and Zahara holding dog poop, how his life has changed, kiddie slumber parties and what life is like as a father of six and so much more.

The pair also swapped a story about seeing each other over the summer when Pitt had two cell phones and a beeper on as he awaited the birth of his new twins.

He said of fatherhood, "It really tells you a lot about yourself and who you are and how you react to things... They make me better. They make me a better person as a father." Asked which of his six children is the funniest, Pitt says, "They all have their own thing. They don't mean to be funny."

(Pitt also had an extraordinarily awkward exchange with fan about his tattoos- click to watch)

THANK YOU.....

Are you saying you're without choice? That's a bit pat he tic isn't it? To not be able to make a cognizant decision on whether or not to click into a thread on a blog that clearly states in the title, "this is what you'll be received with," sounds like someone who isn't really in control of their life, and possibly ruled by the need to say amazingly asi nine things that can be picked apart and tossed back at them like so much stoo pid p oo.

Um,

[newpotusplease]

i choose to click on the story because I keep seeing his naz! looking hair and then his mistress angie hawking her movie in the next column and then his ex gf gwen w/ her thanksgiving recipes and then his ex wife jen trying to sell her movie on the front page of huffpo and on the front page of the entertainment section

annoying , just like you were annoyed enough by my comment that you needed to respond to it so it does sound like you're "someone who isn't really in control of their life, and possibly ruled by the need to say amazingly asi nine things that can be picked apart and tossed back at them like so much stoo pid p oo."

I bet your big in being in p oo

[Hechizera]

Wow, that was some interview. To hear him talk about his life with Angie and their children, it's as if Aniston never existed!

[happycat]

You sound like a broken record already.

[AngryAmish]

The lady vanishes! And along with her, so vanishes any memory of Brad and Angelina's treachery and betrayal! Them P.R. folk is magicians!

[AngryAmish]

P.S. Your idol is giving her kid dog poop and calling it a fudgesicle.

[happycat]

hahahahah! oooh that's tasty!

[claptrapa]

And I am sure that sends a thrill along your scales.

[marymansour]

Hot d@mn, Brad is back in another facet of the Brangelooney show for former mousketeers. When do we pin the tail on Angelina, Bradsky?

[AngryAmish]

The truth will out! Angie's biological kids dine on the milk of her own flesh. The adopted kids dine on dog feces. This material writes itself!

[missjabez]

I agree that the whole Jolie-Pitt situation has become pretty freakish. Can you imagine how those kids are going to turn out, particularly Maddox?

[happycat]

Yes, the holding the dog poop story was very troubling to say the least. So these kids not only look filthy they really really are too.

[kl836]

You people are ridiculous, get a life!

[marymansour]

What are you doing posting here if you already have such a great one?

[lioness39]

Is it H u ff or are these two the biggest circus act since Barnum and Bailey's two headed man?

[happycat]

It really is beginning to look that way lioness!

[AngryAmish]

And I can't shake the feeling that ultimately we all will suffer the fate suffered by the pretty young blonde at the end of the 1933 cult classic "Freaks": We lie curled up in a dog basket, hideously crippled and disfigured, while Brad and Angie stand over us chanting, "You're one of us! You're one of us! You're one of us!"

[marymansour]

It is surreal and distinctly purple. Gor!

[claptrapa]

They seem to be engaged in a side show of their own. It's an entirely new look with the bodies adorned with script rather than extra body parts.

Here's a song for Brad because he's so cute:

[Agentlady007]

I think of his humanitarian effort to help New Oreans. They know there's a God, - except I understand how sometimes we blame God when things don't go right. Humans should take more responsibility for their own condiiton. IMO

Here's a sound version of the same song from above for Brad:

[lioness39]

He may have helped New Orleans and that's a good thing, but can he just shut the f3ck up about his woman, his kids and the state of the universe. AND NO, I AM NOT IN LOVE WITH HIM AND I AM NOT JENNIFER IN DISGUISE!!!!!!

[PatA]

Media whores...he and his wife! There is NO WHERE to look without seeing another "story" that they are pushing out there. And what for?

[happycat]

For ticket sales! That is it. To your point, they are media whores.

[Agentlady007]

Well, You KNOW WHAT 'THEY' SAY ---" IF YOU'VE GOT IT - FLAUNT IT."

[johjac]

I'm sorry that you feel this way about them. Me? I love 'em for the way they LOVE their kids! "Media Whores" or not... I'm so happy for them all, especially for Mad, ZZ and Pax who may not have ever known love or been long for this world as orphans! I think they are truly blessed- I wish as much could be said for ALL the abandoned, neglected and unwanted children in the world. That is the yardstick by which I measure Brad and Angelina.

[preemptivelove]

i'll tell you what for:

if they didn't sell their own stories, if they didn't make themselves available for the cameras, they'd be mercilessly assaulted and hounded anyway. this way, they get to make the fans happy, the paparazzi happy and the charities they give the money to happy.

the nastiness here says more about the posters than it does about brad pitt and angelina jolie.

[missjabez]

We're not nasty. We're a great bunch of guys! But we can't help but react to the Jolie-Pitt Circus of Self-Promotion.

[AngryAmish]

Greta Garbo refused to talk to the press for the last 40 years of her life. Her fame and wealth did not suffer as a result.

[marymansour]

You are wrong on the PR angle. I think the public moved on and Brangie is in a frenzy of self promotion and what it says about we detractors is NOTHING!!!!!! We are having fun and nothing more.

[Agentlady007]

His films mean something to all of us. He's quite the talent. I can't help think how humble he is, and that of course the children will learn a special life with his fatherhood. Shiloh should learn that John and Peter are boys names and that " Wendy" is a much better choice.., or of course " Red Handed Jill".

[Hechizera]

LOL! After I saw Walt Disney's Peter Pan movie when I was a little girl, I wanted to be Peter Pan. He had all the fun. Wendy was too boring for words and Tinkerbell's jealousy got on my nerves. But Peter was super-cool!

[AngryAmish]

So, you wanted to be Peter, huh? Maybe Tinkerbell can make it come true! If we just wish hard enough! Believe it in our hearts! That little peter will grow, and grow, and grow!

[trinity29]

I think its cool that shi wants to be called a boy's name and they call her that instead of drawing artificial boundaries around her in terms of what she can or cannot be as a girl. of course she will learn what names are associated with each gender later on. But for now she is learning that she can identify with boys and thats ok too.
