Want to know how the Jolie-Pitt kids really are? Just ask Don Cheadle. Don jokes that Maddox, 5 1/2, Pax, 3, Zahara, 2, and Shiloh, 11 months, are a rambunctious bunch and questions his Ocean’s Thirteen co-star Brad Pitt‘s ability to parent.
They’re very ill-behaved. I think it’sa testament to his poor parenting skills and he should be looked into.

I love how these guys (brad, george and now Don) all like to mess with each other. Shows they have great senses of humor. How fun those sets (Oceans Eleven/Twelve) must have been. You can just tell watching the movies how much fun they are having. Gotta love that – when work is just that much fun.

Ha ha. I love Don. It must be so much fun to be on the Oceans 13 set with him, Brad, Matt and George.

countdown to people taking this comment seriously starts right….. NOW!

I actually don’t think that is funny – I guess just because it isn’t even witty – just because it is an insult it is a joke? I don’t get it. I hate it when people ‘think’ they are funny but really aren’t.

It took less than 40 minutes, stephanie! Maryjane – relax nobody’s really calling your precious Brad a bad father.

I think stephanie meant that people would start taking it seriously and say ‘why isn’t Brad looked into’ not that they would say they didn’t think a joke was funny. If the same comment was said about anyone I wouldn’t think it was funny – an insult just isn’t a joke.

If you have followed Don Cheadle over the years you would know that is his sense of humor. George Clooney is the exact same way. Too bad people think it’s an insult. It isn’t and I’m sure Brad had a good laugh.
When these guys begin their tour to promote “Ocean’s 13″ try to catch an interview with all of them together. They are a total hoot!!!

Of course he was just joking. These guys on the Ocean movies love to rib each other.Those of us who know this, know also that the truth is most likely the opposite of what Don is saying.
Still, I can see how many who don’t know this could take it the wrong way.
We are not REALLY getting to know what the Jolie-Pitt kids are like, from this quip, so it can be very misleading.
BTW, Jolie mentioned once that she has been told by others how well mannered and happy her kids are, and that made her happy to hear.

I didn’t think it was very funny either. Yes, I know he was just kidding but, lots of people might not know that and to say this in a news article is a bit irresponsible to me. He could have said that he was just kidding. I wouldnt be surprised to see this on the cover of a tabloid next week!

I love Don and the Ocean boys but don’t get why this remark was posted on CBB when he clearly was not being serious and we learned nothing about the kids from what he said.
Also,Can someone tell me why it’s necessary to get a dig in at Angelina? They don’t pit other people who give against each other. I don’t see anyone knocking Bono, Bill or Melinda Gates, George Clooney,or Oprah in relation to witty Don Cheadle, but somehow, along with everything else she’s accomplished at age 31, she also has to one-up other people’s one liners and punch lines when discussing bills she’s passed, millions she’s donated, and the awareness she brings…she also has to be the second coming of Richard Pryor as well – otherwise, she’ll get snarked on.
It was posted because it was kid-related and we thought it was funny — just like George’s joke the other day! We think (hope?) people know that he’s not serious!

It’s obviously a joke. Don is as much of a jokester as George C and as Brad. These guys never say anything “nice” about each other but it’s obvious, at least to me, they love each other. It’s not Don’s fault the writer made a comparison to Angie. The writer is the idiot not Don.
