Brad Pitt lifted a glass of sparkling wine and toasted Angelina Jolie as the couple’s friends and family looked on at Hollywood’s Magnolia restaurant. The pair was there Dec. 8 to salute Angelina’s directorial debut, but Brad and Jolie also appeared to delight in their own much more private news: They want a new baby in 2012.Now that the youngest of their brood of six children, twins Knox and Vivienne, are 3, Angelina, 36, is ready to expand her family. “She jokes about triplets constantly. And she’s not a big joker, really,Jolie and Brad have talked at length. There’s no doubt in anyone’s mind that she’ll have another child.”

Although the couple is playing coy with the media, it’s difficult not to see their delight. “Nothing is planned... I could end up pregnant,” Angelina Jolie recently said. Brad, too, also let slip about the family’s desire for more children. “I don’t know that we’re finished. I don’t know,” he said on 60 Minutes.Certainly, the Jolie-Pitts are in a unique position to be able to afford as many children as they want, but the confidante says that though money isn’t an issue, Jolie may be taking a risk with her health: “It’s very serious. She’s had two very high-risk pregnancies. Both times, her blood pressure shot up, and she developed gestational diabetes. I don’t know if she could survive a third round.”

But Brad, 47, is caught up in the thrill of becoming a dad again, and Angelina, who is used to getting exactly what she wants, plans to become pregnant despite any potential problems. “Angelina is determined,” says another insider. “She is dead set on giving the kids a baby brother or sister as soon as possible.”

Brad Pitt's one of the most handsome guys in Hollywood (he's been People's Sexiest Man Alive twice), but, to some, his hotness factor largely depends on what kind of facial hair he's sporting at the time. Don't believe it? Here's proof: A look back in pictures at the history of his hair over the last decade.

It's no secret that Matt Damon keeps company with some pretty famous friends Ben Affleck, George Clooney, Brad Pitt among them. But unlike the others and especially in the case of Pitt, Damon is able to maintain a fairly normal life.


I have friends who are like prisoners. Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie for instance, Damon told German television TELE 5 over the weekend. They can't just go someplace. If they go for a walk, it turns into an international incident.


Damon, on the other hand, has it sort of easy. I'm really lucky, because I have the best of both worlds. I do the work that I love and need, but don't need paramilitary troops to protect me when I walk out my front door.


For Damon, life revolves around family, and that might have something to do with his ability to maintain a low profile. Ever since I found my wife Luciana and we had children, my whole life revolves around that. It gave my life a dramatic change in direction. I'm not as crazy as most of the other stars. I don't really know why, probably because I married a woman who isn't an actress. And we live in New York, he said. As long as we don't show up in typical tourist spots, we can walk the streets without being noticed. New Yorkers are very cool, they don't flip out if they see me.

Brad Pitt had reservations about playing a domineering dad in Terrence Malick's The Tree of Life.But Pitt had no hesitation joking that he does not spare the rod in raising his six children with Angelina Jolie."I beat my kids regularly. That seems to do the trick," Pitt wisecracked when asked at a press conference about his own parenting style. "And deprive them of meals."Pitt, 47, stars with Sean Penn and Jessica Chastain in Malick's sweeping family drama, whose scope is so expansive it includes images of the birth of creation and the age of dinosaurs.Against that cosmic backdrop, Malick presents the troubled life of a family headed by a saintly mum (Chastain) and an alternately tender and cruel dad (Pitt), whose reign over his three sons leaves them disturbed and even hostile toward their father.Penn plays the oldest son as he reflects back on his boyhood in the 1950s."I was a little hesitant about playing the oppressive father, but I felt like the story was so important, and for me, it was really about the kid's journey," said Pitt,.He has wondered what his children will think about the autocratic figure he plays in The Tree of Life."My kids are going to see it when they grow up, and how are they going to feel?" Pitt said. "They know me as a dad, and I hope they'll just think I'm a pretty damn good actor."
