Remember when Brad Pitt said that he and Angelina Jolie would “consider tying the knot when everyone else in the country who wants to be married is legally able”? Yeah, that was super sweet. Well, the square-jawed sex-symbol has done it again! On Wednesday Pitt announced that he would be donating $100,000 to fight Proposition 8, an option on the ballot in California in November that could ban the rights of same-sex couples to marry. Says Pitt, “Because no one has the right to deny another their life, even though they disagree with it, because everyone has the right to live the life they so desire if it doesn’t harm another and because discrimination has no place in America, my vote will be for equality and against Proposition 8.” Brad, you’re a doll. Next time you come to New York let me take you out to dinner to show how much I appreciate this. No, really. I want to.
