Brad is not afraid to show his true colours and not hide from the fact that he is middle aging!! I admire that rather than succombing to tanning beds,plastics, false nipples and nude photoes to demonstrate the outer beauty This might put us off the scent of Jen's lack of inner beauty Brad is so artistic and will pose in a way to show this side of his being. He is stellar and his good deeds and his talent show this all the way!

Brad looks like he is sixty years old now. He ages about ten years for every year he is with Angelina. Also I hope he doesn't win for that dumb movie he has out. Every commercial I saw of it made it look more stupid. I will watch Marley & Me.
