Brad Pitt: I Was Pretending in My Marriage to Jen Aniston
Way harsh, dude!
Brad Pitt -- whose ex-wife once said he lacked a "sensitivity chip" -- looked back with a lot of candor on his failed marriage to Jennifer Aniston in a new interview with Parade.
Now 47 and happily ensconced in a globe-trotting family life with longtime partner Angelina Jolie and their six kids, Pitt gushes that he's a "satisfied man" these days.
"I'm satisfied with making true choices and finding the woman I love, Angie, and building a family that I love so much," he tells Parade.
But his earlier years as a movie star -- which included the Aniston era -- weren't quite so satisfying, he mused.
"I spent the '90s trying to hide out, trying to duck the full celebrity cacophony. I started to get sick of myself sitting on a couch, holding a joint, hiding out. It started feeling pathetic," says the Moneyball star. He dated Gwyneth Paltrow from 1994 to 1997 and met Aniston, 42, in 1998. They married in 2000 and divorced five years later.
He went on about his pre-Jolie life: "It became very clear to me that I was intent on trying to find a movie about an interesting life, but I wasn't living an interesting life myself."
Why was he so glum? "I think that my marriage had something to do with it. Trying to pretend the marriage was something that it wasn't."
By contrast, life with Jolie, 36, is bonafide awesome, he says. "One of the greatest, smartest things I ever did was give my kids Angie as their mom. She is such a great mom," he gushes. "Oh, man, I'm so happy to have her."

He's an a$$! What hurtful things to say about someone you loved. And why does he still feel the need to comment on their marriage. He just makes himself look worse and worse.

He was a bit out of line. And Jennifer Anniston get's painted as the victim again. Which, I'm sure she's tired of being.

He could have said all the nice things about his relationship with Angelina without the hurtful stuff about Jen.
There was no need for his remarks. HE is an AHole

EXACTLY!!!!!! he has been divorced for almost longer than their marriage even lasted.
If he is so happy now why is he even talking about his ex?

I don't think what he said sounds so bad...they probably asked him questions about his past relationships

Re: Brad Pitt: I Was Pretending in My Marriage to Jen Aniston
I don't see why anything he said is rude or insensitive.
Does anyone actually think she still cares?
Sometimes people are married and then realize *** am I doing?
And you KNOW this happens wayyyyy more with celebs?
Who cares.
He wasn't saying anything bad about her... he wasn't happy in their marriage and he's saying he was pretending to himself that he was happy.

Re: Brad Pitt: I Was Pretending in My Marriage to Jen Aniston
Can't help but wonder who he's trying to convince things are so wonderful with Angie...Him or the rest of the world.
If after so many years you still feel the need to talk about your ex and talk up your current, something is very wrong.

Re: Brad Pitt: I Was Pretending in My Marriage to Jen Aniston
I don't know....everyone always seems to take Jennifer's side...
I think she's the biggest c u next tuesday out there! It's not always a man's fault.
Maybe she's the reason she can't have a lasting relationship
