There’s a rumor spreading that Brad Pitt will be running for office in New Orleans.

The actor sometimes lives in the city with his partner, Angelina Jolie, and has been working there with his Make It Right (MIR) campaign. MIR is an organization building affordable, sustainable homes in New Orleans’ Lower 9th Ward, the area hit the hardest by Hurricane Katrina. The goal is to build 150 homes that use solar power, natural light, energy
efficiency, and other green design features for displaced residents, and to show that the system can be replicated.

Now there’s some buzz that Pitt is interested in really taking charge of the Big Easy, and we’re pretty sure we haven’t seen a politician like him. An elected official who not only believes that global warming is a real threat but who has initiated a sustainable building project? A politician who has openly talked about our dependence on foreign oil? A politician who showed up to his movie premiere in a BMW Hydrogen 7, and who models organic cotton T-shirts that benefit his charitable organization?

Okay, some things might have to change with the new job. But seriously, the Big Easy could only benefit from having a leader who genuinely cares about the environment and citizens’ health. The rest of the country would be impacted by learning about the importance of sustainable design - and by visiting the city’s official Website to see pics of Mayor Pitt.

ANGELINA JOLIE and BRAD PITT will have their next child in France to honour the actress’s late French-Canadian mother.

And I can also reveal that, despite rumours the pair are expecting twins, it will be just one girl to add to their growing family.

My well-placed source revealed: “Angelina has been told she is expecting a girl. She’s thrilled.”

Angelina’s mum, actress MARCHELINE BERTRAND, died last year and the star wants to embrace her French heritage by bringing up her new tot over there.

After months of house-hunting Brad and Angelina — who revealed her bump in a tight black dress at the weekend — have bought a chateau in the south of France and plan to make it their family home.

When their newborn arrives this summer the couple will be parents to five kids.

BRAD PITT has been credited with pulling in the stars for a WE ARE THE WORLD-type comedy recording session ‘outing’ BEN AFFLECK and U.S. funnyman JIMMY KIMMEL as gay lovers.
HARRISON FORD, DON CHEADLE, CAMERON DIAZ and ROBIN WILLIAMS were among the celebrities who agreed to sing for the I’m F**king Ben Affleck video, which aired on Kimmel’s post-Oscars show on Sunday night (24Feb08).
Kimmel immediately turned to Affleck after his girlfriend, comedienne Sarah Silverman, filmed the infamous I’m F**king Matt Damon video with The Bourne Supremacy star for Kimmel’s recent fifth anniversary show.
But Kimmel had no idea it would be so easy to book other stars to take part in his own comedy video.
Ford reportedly came on board because he was a fan of the Silverman/Damon skit, but stars started tumbling when Pitt agreed to play a FedEx delivery guy in the skit.
