Brad Talks To Oprah About Having More Kids: "Why Stop Now?"

Brad Pitt sat down with Oprah Winfrey the other day to talk about his latest flick, "The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button" as well as his always fascinating personal life. As you may recall, Oprah is pretty close with Jennifer Aniston, and this is Brad's first appearance on Oprah's show since the two split back in January of 2005. So how did it go?
The ladies from These Boots Were Made For Stalking were present for the "slightly awkward" interview, and they reveal that during the commercial breaks there were awkward silences and Brad fidgeted in his seat. Oprah and Brad chatted about life with Angelina and the kids and that infamous W cover, and when co-star Cate Blanchett joined them for the latter half of the interview, the actress cracked some jokes about the 44-year-old actor.
Oprah noted that Angelina was the love of Brad's life and asked if this is the happiest he’s ever been. Brad replied, “Dare I say," to which Oprah quipped, “Dare I see." Oprah also asked Brad if he wanted to have more kids, and the hunky father said, "Probably. It’s [parenthood] the greatest endeavor I’ve ever taken on. Why stop now?â€Â
The Boots gals report that Brad said he can only handle being left alone with four of his six kids at a time, and he calls them the “funniest people†he knows. Apparently Shiloh is in a phase right where she she is obsessed with Peter Pan and she will only respond to the names John and Peter, and Pax seems to be a bit of a troublemaker - Brad recently put the 4-year old on timeout, and he rebelled by peeing on the timeout chair. Talk about a badass!
A woman asked Brad about his tattoos via satellite, and the actor said that it was a personal matter, and he wouldn't show his ink to the cameras, but he did tell the audience to share the experience of getting a tattoo with someone they love.
Towards the end of the interview, Oprah brought out the November W issue with a breastfeeding Angelina on the cover, and asked Brad about his photography session with his babymama. Brad said that he loves working with Angelina and that most of Angelina’s photoshoots portray her as “femme fataleâ€Â, but in actuality she is very sweet, which was what he was going for with the black and white photos of her and the children.
The interview is scheduled to air on Oprah on November 18, so it will be interesting to see the interaction between the two!
