Brad Pitt ‘Proud’ Of Son Maddox, 17, But Feels ‘Pushed Out’ Of College Tour By Ex Angelina Jolie


READ MORE

Angelina Jolie has spent the past five months looking at colleges with son Maddox, 17, but without the help of dad Brad Pitt. The actor is feeling pushed out of the decision making for his eldest son’s next big life step.


Selecting the right college is such an important step in any 17-year-old student’s life. That’s why Angelina Jolie, 43, has been accompanying her eldest son Maddox on a tour of universities both in the U.S. and abroad. Sadly, the teen’s dad Brad Pitt has been shut out of the important campus visits. “Brad is so proud of Maddox and would love to be helping him tour colleges, but as of now there are no plans for that. It’s not by Brad’s choice,” a source close the 55-year-old actor tells HollywoodLife.com EXCLUSIVELY.



“He’d love to be more involved but Angelina has been very clear that she is handling it. It’s hard on Brad to be pushed out, to see Angelina having fun with the kids while he’s busy working to support everyone,” our insider continues. Angelina and Maddox toured the New York University campus on Feb. 22, looking like any other prospective student and parent, albeit in Angie’s case an impeccably dressed one. The Maleficent star wore a dove grey fitted coat with a large black Yves Saint Laurent bag to match her heels. Maddox on the other hand looked like any other teen in a North Face jacket and Converse sneakers.


This isn’t the only college trip that Brad’s been left out of. Angelina took Maddox to South Korea in early November of 2018 while making an official visit as the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugee (UNHCR) Special Envoy. While in the capital of Seoul they stopped by several colleges for Maddox to check out. The teen has been studying the Korean language and at the time it was reported he was looking to study abroad in the Asian nation.


It wasn’t just Maddox who got the trip to New York with his mom, as his siblings Shiloh, 12, Zahara, 14, and Pax, 15, came along for the fun trip. Angie brought the four of them to the Museum of Modern Art’s opening of the Serendipity film on Feb. 21 the night before Maddox’s campus tour. Then on Feb. 26 Angie brought her entire brood including twins Knox and Vivienne, 10, to a special NYC screening of The Boy Who Harnessed the Wind, a new film starring and directed by Chiwetel Ejiofor. It’s plot is described on imdb.com as “A boy in Malawi helps his village by building a wind turbine after reading about them in a library book.” That sounds like an uplifting story humanitarian Angelina would want to share with her kids.

Curtly Ambrose : If anyone wants to argue with this selection then take it up with Sir Curtly himself. We dare you. MS Dhoni : The Richie McCaw of Cricket. Enough said. Dwayne Leverock : Famous for his one-handed catch at the 2003 World Cup, the 130kg Bermudian would surely make just as big a splash on the rugby field. Jofra Archer runs in to bowl  Get...

Banned Bancroft's journey of self-discovery

Image
READ MORE © Getty Images Spanish lessons, yoga and a host of community work have all been part of the path taken by Cameron Bancroft since the Newlands ball-tampering scandal. The Australia batsman has been looking to seek the sort of perspective and self-knowledge that will prevent him from following the kind of instructions issued to him by David Warner in the Cape Town dressing room. Bancroft spoke in Perth on Saturday ahead of his return to cricket via Twenty20 and 50-over appearances in the Northern Territory, where he will also endeavour to work closely in developing local talent. It’s the next step on the path away from Newlands as Bancroft serves a nine-month ban from the game imposed by Cricket Australia under its code of conduct. Perspective on life was greatly needed as Bancroft, Warner and the former captain Steven Smith pondered what evolved in South Africa, and Bancroft said he had spent plenty of time devoting himself broadening his own knowledge and also to...

Drones to become the new naval mine hunters under Morrison pledge

Image
READ MORE Advanced navies worldwide are increasingly turning to drones to do mine hunting and clearing work at sea. Marcus Hellyer, a former Defence Department official and now a senior analyst at the Australian Strategic Policy Institute, said that using autonomous and unmanned sea vehicles allowed the crewed ship to stay at the edge of a minefield, keeping naval personnel safer. The Morrison government has promised if re-elected to fast-track the building of two new mine hunting naval ships. Credit: Nine Newspapers “Common sense has prevailed,” he said of the decision. “Rather than keeping going down the path where you have old technology being extended at great cost, this will introduce new technology more quickly and that’s a good thing. “The current path does keep the human at the centre of the minefield, but the new approach lets them stay outside the minefield and let autonomous vehicles go in and do the dangerous work.” Article source: https:/...
