Brad Pitt Clarifies Statement About Jennifer Aniston, Makes it Worse
There was a huge backlash after Brad Pitt's obnoxious Parade interview hit the web yesterday. Apparently the tsunami of negative comments online about Pitt freaked out his publicist big time. Pitt had to issue a statement "clarifiying" his rude remarks about ex-wife Jennifer Aniston. In the interview, Pitt said, "I spent the '90s trying to hide out, trying to duck the full celebrity cacophony. I started to get sick of myself sitting on a couch, holding a joint, hiding out. It started feeling pathetic. It became very clear to me that I was intent on trying to find a movie about an interesting life, but I wasn't living an interesting life myself. I think that my marriage [to actress Jennifer Aniston] had something to do with it. Trying to pretend the marriage was something that it wasn't."
"It grieves me that this was interpreted this way. Jen is an incredibly giving, loving, and hilarious woman who remains my friend. It is an important relationship I value greatly. The point I was trying to make is not that Jen was dull, but that I was becoming dull to myself--and that, I am responsible for."
What a narcissist. It grieves him that people are angry at him for making cruel comments? Yes, we're sure he's unhappy that he looks terrible for slamming Jen at the time she's visiting her deathly ill mother in the hospital (her mother had a serious stroke recently and can't even speak).
On another subject, so how much weed does this guy smoke, anyway? He was married from 2000 - 2005 (he met Jen in 1998), yet he talks about his boredom in his marriage in the 1990s. Unless he had a secret marriage we know nothing about, he's one confused guy.
