When the socially conscious star offered to help the Democratic contender’s presidential campaign, he was turned down, our sources report.Pssh….it’s always the same story. Blame the woman!The overture was made through intermediaries, and it’s not known whether the Illinois senator was even aware of Pitt’s offer to make appearances on his behalf.
Obama’s advisers felt Pitt was “a great guy,” said a knowledgeable source, but they didn’t want their candidate - who already has the endorsements of Pitt pals George Clooney and Matt Damon - to appear to be “too Hollywood.”
What’s more, as politically correct as Pitt’s partner, Angelina Jolie, is now, the source ruminated that it might be hard for some Americans to forget that she used to wear a vial of blood around her neck.

I think it is best for stars to stay the hell out of it. I can’t stand that they think since they have chosen a candidate that we all should choose them also. All these rich people can start by paying the same taxes that all of us middle class people do and quit with the loop holes and tax shelters.
i like both..

Where is this story from? Tabloids!!!!!!!!!!!!
hollywood endorsements aren’t the problem. an apathetic and astonishingly ignorant public is — and we will be paying the price for decades to come for these bush years.
I agree my2cents. Celebs need to stay in their fucking lane! The last thing I want is for some celebutard (who left his wife to marry the Ice Queen) telling ME about campaign issues and how to vote. Brad (and his celeb friends) need to shut the hell up and look pretty for the camera.
Agree with supernova, nona and my2cents. Brad et al should look pretty and shut the fcuk up. More power for Barack by rejecting pretty boy (that is if the tale is true).
yeah, chuck norris should keep his fucking mouth shut. nobody gives a shit who that hollywood hasbeen supports — and it figures it’s a mouthbreathing fundie from the south.
