Jolie and Pitt Make Most of Celebrity Status

The list of benefits given to celebrities seems endless.  They never wait in line at clubs, they always get the best table in the restaurant, and if you’re Brad Pitt… you get free helicopter lessons while your significant other films a movie.

As Angelina Jolie prepares to film her new movie “Wanted” in beautiful Prague, Czech Republic, she is making plans to take Brad Pitt with her.  In order to keep Pitt occupied during those arduously long filming days, Jolie is arranging for complimentary helicopter flying lessons for the Fight Club stud.

Being that Jolie and Pitt are not officially married, it was difficult for them to adopt the child, given that Vietnamese law frowns on unwed couples’ adoption.  That being so, Angelina was the sole adopter of Pax.  But now that they’re back Stateside, she has applied to have Brad’s surname added too – much the same as with her other two adopted children, Maddox and Zahara.

According to a recent Life and Style Weekly report, friends of the couple were said to be concerned that Angelina neglects Shiloh and favors her adopted children - five-year-old Cambodian son Maddox, three-year-old Vietnamese son Pax and two-year-old Ethiopian daughter Zahara.
