Brad Pitt explains why he hasn't married Angelina Jolie
In a recent interview, Pitt explains why he hasn’t put a ring on it.
(For those of you who aren’t familiar with slang terminology, the phrase “Put a ring on it” means putting an engagement or wedding ring on some one’s finger).
In an interview with Parade, Pitt said “I have love in my life, a soul mate, absolutely. When someone asked me why Angie and I don’t get married, I replied, ‘Maybe we’ll get married when it’s legal for everyone else.’ I stand by that, although I took a lot of flak for saying it — hate mail from religious groups.”
“I believe everyone should have the same rights. They say gay marriage ruins families and hurts kids. Well, I’ve had the privilege of seeing my gay friends being parents and watching their kids grow up in a loving environment.”
“I resent people telling others how to live. It drives me mental. Just the other night, I heard this TV reverend say that Angie and I were setting a bad example because we were living out of wedlock, and people should not be duped by us. It made me laugh. What damn right does anyone have to tell someone else how to live if they’re not hurting anyone? How many times do you think real love comes to someone in a lifetime? If you’re lucky, maybe two or three.”
Well said on Brad’s part. I never thought about it from this perspective, but Brad makes very good points.
