This should move the debate forward.
NEW YORK - Brad Pitt, ever the social activist, says he won't be marrying Angelina Jolie until the restrictions on who can marry whom are dropped.
"Angie and I will consider tying the knot when everyone else in the country who wants to be married is legally able," the 42-year-old actor reveals in Esquire magazine's October issue, on newsstands Sept. 19.
In the article he reflects on "fifteen things I think everyone should know."
Though Shiloh, the world-famous daughter of Pitt and girlfriend/earth mother Angelina Jolie, hogged much attention upon her birth in May, Pitt says he "cannot imagine life" without adopted children, Maddox, 5, and Zahara, 1.
That's tremendous, Brad. And, to think, you've only been divorced once and had one child out of wedlock. What a role model! Of course, marrying the mother of the child could rectify that latter situation, but doing the right thing for your own family, and by extension (as a high-profile public figure) demonstrating a grasp of personal responsibility, isn't even in the same league as changing the world.
