So There's More to Brad Pitt Under That Chiseled Bod and Butter-Melting Looks...

For some reason, Newsweek decided to look the other way and focus the spotlight at the backdrop and named Brad Pitt one of the 15 People Who Make America Great.

Surprisingly, his paramour Angelina Jolie was missing from the list.

In fact, the magazine credited the 1998 People Sexiest Man Alive for bringing Namimbia at the forefront of celebrity-crazed public consciousness, again denying full credit to Jolie.

It says: If it wasn’t for Brad Pitt, most Americans would never have heard of Namibia. They might not know about AIDS orphans in South Africa, or the plight of children in Haiti, or what transpired at the World Economic Forum in Davos, Switzerland.

The Newsweek article said Pitt decided to get back at the paparazzis by dragging them to the underdeveloped countries that desperately needed world attention. And to make the vengeance complete, the Namimbian government collaborated with this plan by capturing and jailing the ethically-challenged photographers when they try to get a snap of the ‘royal family’.

He’s finding out the consequences of his actions, though. Now their Malibu home is surrounded by an ant army of clickers invading land, sea, and air making sure they don’t escape without unwillingly nor unwittingly posing for the cameras.

But seriously, Mr. Pitt proudly announced they got a hefty $4 million from pics of their newborn Shiloh, all of which will go to the different charities he and Angelina are supporting.

And before many of you decide that Brad is nothing but an Angelina tagalong, you should be educated that he’s been long using his pretty boy looks to funnel attention into Africa and other impoverished nations.

Therefore his current humanitarian efforts were not the results of making amends for dumping Jennifer Aniston and hooking up with Angelina. The guy further claimed he looks up to Bono (not Angelina) as his role model for his humanitarian works, calling the U2 frontman "a wonderfully dedicated beast unto himself".

Brad and Angelina’s adoption binge is not over. So the race, rather, the betting is on for the country where Brangelina will adopt their next child. Building their own little global community, you might say.

Batwoman Is A Lesbian

For years Batwoman seem to have been suffering from identity crisis. Or so I thought...

My earliest memory of Batwoman, or rather in her reincarnation as Batgirl, was on the Saturday morning cartoon Batman series where she shared limelight with Bat-Mouse in support billing to our masked hero, a.k.a. Bruce Wayne. There Batgirl was Barbara, the daughter of the constantly clueless Commissioner Gordon.

Then in George Clooney's nipple protruding version of the caped crusader, Batgirl was introduced as the niece of butler Alfred, who supposedly went to a boarding school in England. Here the heroin was played by a very unflaterring Alicia Silverstone.

Now the powers that be at DC has decided to reintroduce the real first lady of the Bat family -- Batwoman, as someone who has balls. Yes, boys and girls, the new Batwoman is a lesbian. A 5-foot-10 crimefighter with flowing red hair, knee-high red boots with spiked heels, and a form-fitting black outfit.

"We decided to give her a different point of view," explained Dan DiDio, vice president and executive editor at DC. "We wanted to make her a more unique personality than others in the Bat-family. That's one of the reasons we went in this direction."

The original Batwoman was introduced in 1956, as Kathy Kane. Nope, it wasn't Barbara (who went on to reinvent herself as Oracle). But the character was killed off in 1979.

The return of Batwoman is earning mixed reactions from DC fans. Hard core comic book readers feel DC is treading on thin ice. But others welcome the brave change:

"On Tuesday DC Comics annouced that they are bring back the Batwoman series, but this time she's a lipstick lesbian. All I have to say is "Right On!!"

Hey, for a long time now we've been wondering what goes on between Batman and Robin when they're chillin' out at the manor and not saving Gotham from underworld criminals. At least now with Batwoman there's no more hiding behind the cape.

I'm excited to see who will play her in the movie...
