Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were spotted doing good in the world together.

The two of them were visiting Iraqi refugees in Syria, just outside Damascus.

Helping others, as per usual!

Maybe they're looking for a new addition to their ever-growing family as well?

Poppa Pitt and son Maddox Jolie-Pitt were spotted at JFK catching a flight to France this weekend, but not before hanging out at Dave & Buster's in Times Square for some male bonding time.

Cute!

Clearly Maddox is still too young to be embarrassed by his parents yet!

While attending the Clinton Global Initiative Thursday, Poppa Brad Pitt was honored by the US Green Building Council for all he's done with his Make It Right foundation to rebuild New Orleans.

Poppa Pitt hopes that his sustainable housing project will pave the way for more people to consider an eco-friendly building solutions. “We can no longer tell ourselves that implementing this technology is too complex a problem because it’s just been proven on this little spot on the map.”

Out of the 150 homes planned, so far only 13 have been built, but residents are already seeing the benefits with the average electricity bill being only $35.

Next up for the Future Design Fellow?

Brad's foundation is already working on the next stage of the project which will include eco-friendly duplex designs.

He may still have that awful beard, but we're willing to deal with it for a little while longer because of all the good work he does!

Brad Pitt has been named as one of the new 12 Design Future Council Fellows.

The Fellows are recognized in honor of their "significant contributions toward the understanding of changing trends, new research, and applied knowledge leading to innovative design models that improve the built environment and the human condition."

Even though he's the only actor of the bunch, we think he's very deserving of his new title with all of his recent architecture and sustainability projects!

Congrats, Brad!

P.S. It would be nice if you lost the beard. Just a suggestion.

On Thursday, two of the world's most recognizable faces will come together in NYC for a good cause!

At the Clinton Global Initiative's annual meeting, Brad Pitt will be a guest speaker in a lecture discussing the aftermath of Hurricane Katrina, titled Building A Better Future.

The seminar will offer a progress report on the status of New Orleans after being riddled by a natural disaster, plagued by poverty and failed public infrastructure investments.

Bill Clinton's organization paired with Pitt's Make it Right Foundation aims to improve the city through the construction of affordable green housing and sustainable cities in a hopeful partnership with the government, private sector and non-profits.

Can we show up to hear Bradley speak???

We can't decide whether we love it or hate it!

Poppa Pitt showed up to the premiere of Inglorious Basterds in San Sebastian, Spain, decked out in monogramed slippers!

What do U think???

Quirky, or….?

And defying all medical science, they're growing on his face!

Brad Pitt's wiry, graying chin arrived in Spain for the 57th San Sebastian International Film Festival on Friday to promote his newest flick, Inglourious Basterds.

Maybe we should rent Troy over the weekend and reminisce about the days when he was young and in his glory!

Because unless he's working on a ZZ Top biopic, this is all sorts of wrong!

Think your pet has a good life? Well, think again!

Brad Pitt has just dumped $82,000 on a custom home for his kids' gerbils.

What!? We understand loving your pet, but this is a little extreme! That's enough to buy a home for an actual person in some places!!!

The lucky gerbils were picked out by Maddox and Pax last month, when their parents took them to a local pet store in France.

An onlooker says "The boys were really keen to get the gerbils and it was Angelina who reached into the cage to pet them before a store worker got them out."

Angie touching a rodent!? Where were the paparazzi on this one?

The swanky gerbil digs will include tunnels, platforms, seesaws and mazes, which will go in the family's mansion in the South of France.

The design was overseen by the kids and Brad. According to a source "Brad pores over architectural journals…he had so much fun putting the run together with his kids…"

Sounds like some good father/kid bonding to us. Who else can say they helped design a gerbil house with their father?

Or better yet, what gerbil can say they live with the Jolie-Pitts!?

Poppa Pitt is at it again with his do-gooding ways, no doubt influenced by his lovely babymomma, Santa Angelina.

Brad the Dad was flying solo this time around, visiting an urban renewal project in the city of Aviles in northern Spain.

Pitt toured the site on Sunday where the Oscar Niemyer Cultural Centre is being constructed.

The city is hoping that the cultural centre will revitalize Aviles in the same way that the Frank Gehry-designed Guggenheim museum revived the city of Bilbao — now a bustling, cultural landmark.

"He is interested in supporting the project, the cultural as well as the architectural aspects," says Pilar Varela, mayor of Aviles.

He is particularly interested in the environmental sustainability of the centre, which we all know is a keen interest of Pitt's considering his "Make It Right" project in New Orleans.

Sigh. Always thinking of others, Brad. We wouldn't have you any other way!
