LIMAN: 'I THOUGHT PITT/JOLIE ROMANCE WAS MANUFACTURED' MR + MRS SMITH director DOUG LIMAN was so bemused by the initial tabloid stories about the alleged romance between co-stars BRAD PITT and ANGELINA JOLIE he suspected movie executives at film studio 20th Century Fox were behind the gossip. Liman became suspicious when a year-old set of photos of the two actors appeared in the US tabloids just after rumours started speculating about a romance between them. He says, "I myself accused Fox because a photo surfaced from our set a year later and it was sold to all the tabloids. "It was like, 'The only people who would wait a year later would be the studio.'" But Liman, who insists there were no signs that the couple were an item on his film set, was quickly convinced the story was just the tabloids working overtime, trying to explain Pitt's break-up from wife JENNIFER ANISTON. He adds, "I honestly believed they (studio executives) weren't (responsible). Nobody's that good. "If this was manufactured... this would have been, like, a six-month campaign; the number of people that would have had to participate for that never to have gotten out. Nobody's that good." But the director can understand why Pitt fell for Jolie - if the romance is for real. He adds, "She's extraordinarily sexual."
Angelina's Rural English Life You may have thought that super sexy Angelina Jolie bathed in asses' milk and never, ever had a hair out of place.But no - according to her neighbours in the sleepy town of Fulmer, Berkshire, she's "like most women around here" and often pops down her local pub for a mineral water and a sarnie."She's just a normal, lovely lady who blends in with everyone else," says Kay Keane, owner of the village boozer. In a report by Now magazine, the sultry actress - who's been there to, er, help Brad Pitt after his marriage split - is found to fit in with her neighbours. Ange bought a 2.1million farmhouse in Fulmer after staying there while filming Lara Croft: Tomb Raider. And far from looking fabulous like she always is on the red carpet, she's not afraid to jog around the area, or to nip into the Sainsbury in a baseball cap and plain face. Sainsbury's worker Sarah Bowers remembers the first time that Angelina came in with her three-year-old son Maddox. "I had to do a double take," she recalls. "She looks gorgeous - even without her make up on." Others are less impressed. Trolley stacker Stephen Hillyard shrugged: "I'm not star struck. We get loads of celebrities in here. Michael Fish is always popping in." So he'd barely bat an eyelid if Brad Pitt joined her for the weekly shop, no doubt.
