Rumble at Brad and Angie's

Camouflaged paparazzi gained access to the grounds of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's Miraval chateau and were set upon by security guards. The ensuing fight ended with both sides filing legal complaints, but a police captain said the combatants' injuries amounted to little more than scratches and bruises. The captain said it was the first time the police have been summoned to Brad and Angie's place since they began living there earlier this year. She then became a hero by uttering the following in response to a deluge of questions about the incident:

I won't hide for you that this kind of thing is really not the type of problem that interests us. There are, in my opinion, far more important things than paparazzi taking photos of a glamour couple.

Contrast this refreshing attitude with the way the mayor of Nice fawned over these two. I guess not everyone in that part of the world is a celebrity-obsessed rube.
