BRANGIE GUILTY OF SMUGGING FOR CAMERA

LET'S just get it out in the open. Just because you are a rabid adopter, zealous breeder, star as benighted mothers in movies no one watches and live in France, you are not a better person.
Even if you are sleeping with Brad Pitt.
Hollywood's golden couple - shriek! OMG! Was that Brad and Angie?!? - dropped a smug bomb at the Academy Awards Sunday night, swanning onto the red carpet for photo ops but shunning interviewers in what's become their signature navel-gazing charade of the celebrity arrival.
Enough already.
Possession of pouty lips and carefully contrived tousled hairdos doesn't exempt them from associating with the reporters and fans who made them famous.

At both the Golden Globes and the Oscars, Brangelina snubbed or brushed off uber-host Ryan Seacrest's questions. On ABC, Tim Gunn of "Project Runway" gushed over the cocky couple but was rebuffed by a patronizing Jolie's verbal pat on the head in return. "How sweet!," she cooed.
What's with the lofty attitude? And what's the deal with the frock-and-go look Jolie's been sporting at award shows?
Although Jolie dressed to the nines for the British film awards, she barely did her hair, pinning it back halfway. Her matchy-matchy green jewelry at the Oscars seemed lazy; the no-do hairdo at the Golden Globes was a mess; her blue pull-on boat-neck dress at the SAG Awards was sacklike, to say the least. Would it be beyond her to make a sartorial effort, to be a good sport and participate even a wee bit in the glamour of an evening?
Remember the good old days when Jolie was interesting and - gasp - fun? She starred in oddball movies such as "Hackers" and "Gia," wore vials of blood around her neck, couldn't shut up about her relationships, dated a lesbian model, talked about cutting herself with her knife collection (OK, disclaimer: The Post does not condone self-harm) and publicly made out with her brother.
After four years together, Jolie and Pitt have morphed into Mr. and Mrs. Ordinary. To stay at the top of the Tinseltown pile, just being good-looking is not enough - especially when your nose is held higher than the Hollywood sign.

Wow, seriously DID Lily get a job as a journalist? I thought Brange looked hot that night.

Yeah, I said it.

Great title though!

**sluce** · February 25th, 2009, 11:08 AM

Ryan will run off with Maddox in a few years.

**gas_chick** · February 25th, 2009, 11:19 AM

I think Pax is more Ryan's type.

Doesn't that make it a nonagon rather than a triangle or square tho?

I thought Angie's jewelry was lovely. But yeah they could give an interview or two.

My first thought too. Couldn't they have plumped it up a bit though? It's kind of flat.

How does it become 9 sided?

**rollo** · February 25th, 2009, 12:30 PM

They have plenty to be smug about.

For now

**lurkur** · February 25th, 2009, 12:42 PM

If she wasn't so smug about avoiding reporters, she could use the opportunity to railroad the fluffy interviews and cram some humanitarian stuff down people's throats.

I hope she sticks with the snubbing...
