Daddy's Throwing Cash Around

Filed under: Brad Pitt

bradsmiamipurchases.jpg

On Tuesday, Brad Pitt was at Art Basel in Switzerland (despite "sightings" in Houston, Texas).

The soon-to-be daddy of six bought a few pricey items at the art fair.

Amongst them: 2 Max Lamb Bronze Poly Chairs and "Family Lamp" by Atelier van Lieshout, pictured above.

The items look sturdy. Sturdy enough to survive the Branglina brood.

Wonder what Brad would think of our Macy's and Ikea furniture?

Are his new items eco friendly???

      Brad Pitt cares nothing about the environment. If he did he would not be travelling in private planes, own six or seven houses. It is completely ridiculous to spout off as an environmentalist if you travel via private plane ANYWHERE. I could drive a Hummer for five years and not waste as much fuel as one Lear Jet RT from California to France. So, I don't give a SHIT if Brad Pitt's furniture is eco friendly, because it doesn't make him "GREEN". I'm so sick of these fuckin' celebrities like Julia Roberts telling me how to live. How'd you get to the Oprah Show Julia? Unless you took the bus or rode your bicycle, you ain't living as green as me in little 'ol Portland, OR. So fuck you.

      He would think no more of your furniture than he would give a flying fusge pack what a lard assed homo named mario thinks or does.

      Uh, isn't buying USED furniture green in of itself? Better to reuse than purchase new. But yeah, private jets create a ginormous inexcusable carbon footprint.

      I don't find their pretentious and ostentatious ways, but please stop flying all the time.
      Especially using private jets.

      Smithville has returned to normal. The cast and crew of Terrence Malick’s “Tree of Life” wrapped up the 1940’s-1960s portion of the ambitious film and are off to the Bonneville Salt Flats in Utah after a couple days filming in Houston.

      Later, the film will shoot in Iceland, of all places. These locations suggest that “Tree of Life,” starring Brad Pitt and Sean Penn, is the film Malick wrote in the late ’70s after making “Days of Heaven.”

      Originally titled “Q,” the movie starts in prehistoric times and ends in the far future, although the bulk of the film follows a family (Pitt as father and Jessica Chastain as mother of three boys) from 1947 through 1968. Most of the filming took place at 709 Burleson St., where the title tree remains.

      Malick and company threw a Smithville Appreciation party Friday night at the gazebo downtown.

      to answer you question, Perez… no Brad Pitt is far from eco-friendly so I doubt his new purchases are eco-friendly.

      Let's list some other NON eco-friendly stuff this so-called enviornmental friendly architect owns:
      -More than 4 motorcycles
      -5 or more non eco-friendly mansions
      -1 or more non eco-friendly private jets

      need I list more?

      47

      it's one thing to be non-eco friendly.

      It's another to be non eco friendly WHILE preaching to others about being eco-friendly.

      hypocrite!

      Is your furniture eco friendly Perez???? BTW, I don't think Brad Pitt would give two shits about what you have in your home. I mean really you should know your place.
      Let's see Art Basel= furniture with artistic value or sense and Ikea/Macy's= affordable functional furniture….why the fuck would you even compare the two???

      Do we even care anymore about this clan?? What is he wearing? Reminds me of the old guys in the movie Cocoon. (Sigh) he use to be so hot. What happened?

    51. Nancy says – reply to this


      51

      A lot of you are missing the point. Perez never said that IKEA was eco friendly. Perez doesn't constantly preaching "go green", hence he is far from being a hypocrite.

      Brad on the other hand, does preach.

      Everyone seems to have this guy nailed… good for them! He can buy this rotten looking crap because he has money, and he thinks it is art …ha!
      His taste is minimalist, contemporary, sterile, unfriendly, uncomfortable. #37 has it right; I think he is a joke.

      59

      please explain to me why the fuck this douche thinks nothing of dropping $300k on a table for 2 ? What is with the extravagant taste especially with 6 kids under the age of 7? I know they have tons of money and shit but can't they be practical for even a second? The kids will destroy anything in their wake. I thought Jolie was miss frugal when it comes to spending. Apparently NOT. Brad must think just because Jolie is carrying twins, she's not on her game. He probably stole his balls back while she wasn't looking. Guarantee that this heinous furniture will find its way back to the store the moment she delivers these kids. She probably doesn't have the stregnth to fight him on it right now. All I can say is that he has some shitty ass taste!! This furniture just screams "cold". I knew the big paycheck from People magazine would pay for them to decorate the house!! SO MUCH FOR CHARITY!

IF SO THE BABIES WOULD BE FIGHTING FOR THEIR LIVES AND THE PARENTS WOULD BE TRYING TO PREVENT A MEDIA CIRCUS. ANYONE ELSE THINK THIS IS A POSSIBILITY?

      The chair is absolutely hideous, who would actually want to sit in something so uncomfortable? It looks like it would rip a persons a$$ to shreds!

      Brad wants to fill his homes with this stuff; Angie wants to fill it with stuff akin to a voodoo den. Jen must laugh at these two sometimes. The day they split up will be the happiest day in Jen's life … her retribution. Don't think this "art" is to be used ~ it is to look at. Brad thinks he is so avant garde.
