Brangelina to sue Britain’s News of the World

They've put the rumors to rest. Now they're taking the rumormongers to court.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have filed suit against Britain's News of the World after the tabloid published an article last month that sparked the breakup rumor heard round the world.

The story, published Jan. 24 and since wisely removed from the newspaper's website, claimed the couple had met with a Los Angeles divorce lawyer to quietly divide their assets, hash out a custody deal and financially provide for their six children in advance of what the tab claimed was going to be a messy separation.

"The News of the World has failed to meet our clients' reasonable demands for a retraction of and apology for these false and intrusive allegations which have now been widely republished by mainstream news outlets," the couple's London-based lawyer, Keith Schilling, said in a statement.

"We have advised them to bring proceedings, which they have now done."

The story and the various incarnations of breakup rumors that followed gained more traction than the usual standard-issue Brangelina split reports.

As for the newspaper, in his statement today, Brangelina's lawyer not only discredited the story, but proved shockingly that they were less than honest about their sourcing.

If it's any consolation, the tabloid was clearly half right. Apparently, Brangelina did visit a lawyer recently just one that's gonna sue the pants off the News of the World.

Angelina Jolie had an affair with Lady Gaga?

If rumours are to be believed, then Hollywood actress Angelina Jolie had an affair with singer Lady Gaga.


According to Ian Halperin, author of the recent bestseller 'Brangelina: The Untold Story of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie', the Tomb Raider star might have cheated on partner Brad Pitt with GaGa.

Jolie - who is openly bisexual - and GaGa - a rumoured hermaphrodite - had a secret rendezvous at the Beverly Wilshire Hotel that lasted all night, Halperin alleged.

Jolie is reportedly obsessed with Gaga, reported the China Daily. It's not the first time Jolie has been accused of cheating on Pitt.

Earlier this week, In Touch Weekly magazine spoke to a housekeeper who worked extensively with the family on their numerous visits to the Waldorf-Astoria in New York.

Anna Kowalski claimed that the actress had a series of steamy sex sessions with one of the dialect coaches she worked with on the set of her movie Salt.
