Brad and his marriage fell apart….

It’s about how Brad Pitt is sick. He was in the the hospital. Let me break this news story down.
Actor Brad Pitt has been diagnosed with a mild case of viral meningitis and was released from the hospital Wednesday, his publicist said.
OK…That’s important. meningitis is a nasty thing. Let’s keep him in our prayers. OK?
“The actor is at home and doing well,” she said in a statement.
Well good. I hope he gets better. IMHO, he’s a good actor and I’d like to see him keep making films.
Pitt was in Ethiopia last week with his “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” co-star
Angelina Jolie to pick up the actress’ newly adopted baby girl, the second child she has adopted.
Probably important to the story…right? I mean he could have caught a virus in Africa. He’s not from there, so he doesn’t have the natural immunities of the native African population. Plus, the climate makes the continent suitable for such illnesses to thrive.
Guagenti declined Wednesday to say if Pitt contracted the illness while in Africa.
This was a smart move. I could see hysteria breaking out from people thinking that it must be much worse than meningitis, just because he picked up the bug in Africa. You know who “people” can be….
The “Troy” and “Fight Club” star separated from “Friends” actress
Jennifer Aniston in January after 4 1/2 years of marriage. She filed for divorce in March citing irreconcilable differences.
What the heck does this have to do with him being sick?!?!?!?!? That really needs to be explained to me. I really think the AP was just being gratuitous here.
Brad – If you’re out there, I loved you in Twelve Monkeys. Keep up the good work and don’t listen to what that guy in Chicago has to say….
