The couple have no children. In March 2005 Aniston filed for divorce petition in the local court. Their divorce was granted by the Los Angeles Superior Court on October 2, 2005, and ended their marriage.

No doubt there are much speculation about the break-up of Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston and the role of Angelina Jolie in that. One rumor says that Pitt and Angelina Jolie were having an affair during the filming of Mr. & Mrs. Smith. But both Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie deny such romance. Some people say that it was inappropriate friendship of Brad Pitt and Angelina which led to the break up.

Later in January 2006, Jolie confirmed that she was pregnant with Pitt’s child and thereby confirmed their relationship for the first time in public. In an October 2006 interview Pitt said that he and Jolie decided to marry.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt Love story

It was during the making of “Mr. & Mrs. Smith”  that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt fell in love. In an interview Angelina Jolie told that she never wanted to ruin Brad Pitt’s marriage to Jennifer Aniston but it just happened that way.

She said “I didn’t know much about exactly where Brad was in his personal life. But it was clear he was with his best friend, someone he loves and respects.”

After the marriage with Brad she says “I’m starting to be able to see being 50 years old with the kids graduating from high school.”

It seems that she is mentally settled now and committed to her life. She just want a peaceful life with her beloved kids and of course Brad.

Brad Pitt about Aniston

“Jen and I still maintain a deep friendship and have a lot of life together that isn’t erased in any way.”

“She was a big part of my life, and me hers.”

“I don’t know how better to have handled [the split]. My view was, this was no one’s business in the end at least in matters of the heart, the thing guiding me then was, you don’t know how many days you have, and you need life to be everything you need it to be.”

“The thing that I don’t understand is looking at this as a failure. It’s talked about like it failed, I guess because it wasn’t flawless. I embrace the messiness of life. I find it so beautiful, actually. The idea that marriage has to be for all time, that I don’t understand.”

“The most important thing about that time was for Jen and me to figure out if how do I put it? if we didn’t want to go on without any outside influence. Is this where we got off? Have we taken this as far as we wanted to go?”

“It’s so complex and multifaceted. We’ve done it our way and I love her for that. We’ve kept the love we have for each other.”

“There’s peace in understanding that I have only one life, here and now, and I’m responsible.”

Angelina Jolie about Brad Pitt

“Brad was a huge surprise to me, I, like most people, had a very distant impression of him from. I think we were the last two people who were looking for a relationship. I certainly wasn’t,I was quite content to be a single mom.”

“Because of the film “Mr. & Mrs. Smith”, we ended up being brought together to do all these crazy things, and I think we found this strange friendship and partnership that kind of just suddenly happened. I think a few months in I realized, ‘God, I can’t wait to get to work.”

“Whether it was shooting a scene or arguing about a scene or gun practice or dance class or doing stunts — anything we had to do with each other, we just found a lot of joy in it together and a lot of real teamwork. We just became kind of a pair.”

“Not as exciting as what a lot of people would like to believe. We spent a lot of time contemplating and thinking and talking about what we both wanted in life and realized that we wanted very, very similar things. We remained very, very good friends – for a long time”

“We both have been married before, so it’s not marriage that’s necessarily kept some people together. We are legally bound to our children, not to each other, and I think that’s the most important thing.”

“I’m not a hugger. People make fun of me. It’s something that I have a hard time with. If someone hugs me, I hold my breath. Snuggling, cuddling, hugging, crying … all that stuff makes me very uncomfortable.”

“He’s a great challenge to me. We’re constantly in competition with each other. He’s somebody I admire based on the way he lives his life.”

Jennifer Aniston about Brad Pitt

“Pretty soon after we separated, we got on and we had a long, long conversation with each other and said a lot of things, and ever since we’ve been unbelievably warm and respectful of each other.”

‘Well, it never was that bad. ‘I mean, look, it’s not like divorce is something that you go, “Oooh, I can’t wait to get divorced!” It doesn’t feel like a tickle. But I’ve got to tell you, it’s so vague at this point, it’s so faraway in my mind. I mean, in the end, we really had an amicable split. It wasn’t mean and hateful and all of this stuff that they tried to create about Brad can’t talk  to Jen and Jen can’t talk to Brad because this person won’t allow it. It just didn’t happen. The marriage didn’t work out.”

“Everybody always asks if we’re happy. Give me a break. We’re married two years. In Hollywood years, that’s forever.” [2002]

“It’s my experience. And if you don’t like the way it looks, then stop looking at it! Because I feel good. I don’t feel like I’m supposed to be any further along or somewhere that I’m not. I’m right where I’m supposed to be.”

Joint statement : “For those who follow these sorts of things, we would like to explain that our separation is not the result of any speculation reported by the tabloid media – this decision is the result of much thoughtful consideration.We happily remain committed and caring friends with great love and admiration for one another.”

Patrick Swayze cancer Treatment

It was reported that the legend of Dirty Dancing and Ghost movies Patrick Swayze is preparing mentally for the death. It was the greatest shock to his family, friends, fans and well wishers. It was reported that cancer had spread to his liver and the doctors can do nothing but countdown to the end.

But the truth is that the legend is fighting hard to conquer the death. Its true that he has cancer but he is one among the luckiest persons who are responding to treatment. When he is mentally strong and giving a try to treatment its really a discouragement if we say he is waiting for death.

He openly said “It’s upsetting that the shoddy and reckless reporting from these publications cast a negative shadow on the positive and good fight I’m fighting. For me, my family, and those close to me, it amounts to downright emotional cruelty. That makes me angry when hope is so precious.”

What the real star needs is our love and support. Come on lets join him for a victory against Cancer. He is even collecting donations for supporting research work on cancer. Its all for the good of the mankind and certainly not for him.!!

It is said that the great star is becoming weak day by day and sometimes, so weak that he could barely walk without feeling faint. Sometimes he feels out of breath and has to sit down.

In Jan 2008 he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer and has undergone chemotherapy at the Stanford University Medical Center. In March it was reported that he has a very limited amount of disease, and he was responding well to treatment . But unfortunately later doctor confirmed that he was diagnosed with pancreatic cancer, but insisted he’s not close to death. Specifically, Swayze was diagnosed with a type of pancreatic tumor called Intraductal Papillary Mucinous Neoplasm (IPMN).

In early May 2008, it was widely reported in a number of tabloids that Swayze had undergone surgery to remove part of his stomach after the spread of the cancer and that he had rewritten his will, transferring his property to his wife. In late May 2008, he was seen at a Los Angeles Lakers basketball game, his first public appearance since his diagnosis.

Swayze was again hospitalized On Jan 9th 2009, with pneumonia. The pneumonia was said to be the result of chemotherapy. It is said that chemotherapy suppresses the immune system of our body and puts you at risk for infections. Swayze acknowledges that his smoking habit probably contributed to his cancer. But unfortunately he still smokes.!!

A report says that Pancreatic cancer, kills about 30,000 people a year in USA. It has a less than 5 percent survival rate for five years. If diagnosed early and treated aggressively with surgery and survival rate can go as high as 17 to 25 percent.

Swayze and his wife Lisa Niemi, have been married for 32 years.

What Patrick Swayze says

“I’m still fine to work, I haven’t changed – oh, I have changed, what am I saying? It’s a battle zone I go through. Chemo, no matter how you cut it, is hell on wheels.”

“I’m cooking. I’m a miracle dude. I don’t know why” [July 2008]

“I dream that the word ‘cure’ will no longer be followed by the words ‘it’s impossible’. Together, we can make a world where cancer no longer means living with fear, without hope, or worse” [September 2008]

“I don’t really want to talk about it, but I know he’s sick, but he has great doctors and a great prognosis, and that’s all I can say.” [Swayze’s mother[

“I’m very proud of the work I’ve done on my new series The Beast, and I am happy to be back home for the holidays. It’s a great feeling of accomplishment to say you’re gonna do something and do it.”

“Pancreatic cancer is an aggressive disease and from the moment I was diagnosed, I knew I was in for the fight of my life. It’s a battle, and so far, I’ve been winning. I’m one of the lucky few that responds well to treatment.”

“As always, I appreciate all the love and support people have sent and continue to send my way. I thank you.”
