He feels like he’s won the lottery because he’s so happy in his life.
“I still have to get up at 6 a.m. and make breakfast for six kids. I don’t see my daily life as being that remarkable except for the fact that I’ve struck the lottery when it comes to my work and the opportunities it’s given me,” contactmusic.com quoted Pitt as saying.
The 48-year-old, raises six kids, Maddox, 11, Pax, eight, Zahara, seven, Shiloh, six, and four-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne, with fiancee actress Angelina Jolie.

“As an actor, I love being able to explore all the complex aspects of human nature and how we’re constantly in various stages of conflict with each other. But it’s not as consuming as it used to be because my family is my priority and I’d rather spend more time with my kids,” he said.

Los Angeles, Dec 10 (IANS) Irish actor Colin Farrell says he wanted to be a football player like his father Eamon Farrell.

“I mean, my dad was kicking a punctured tennis ball up against the wall in his back garden from the time he was four, on his own, six hours a day,” he added.

Los Angeles, Dec 10 (IANS) Reality TV star Holly Madison, who is expecting her first child with partner Pasquale Rotella, is feeling good, but admits she is struggling to adjust to her changing shape.
“I am just getting used to this whole new body. It can be very awkward. I recently started having back pain, which sucks because I can’t take anything for it,” contactmusic.com quoted Madison as saying.
“I have gained about 19 pounds which is pretty normal. I feel good, like I am healthy and really where I’m supposed to be,” she added.
The 32-year-old, who is due to deliver in March, is already thinking about how to get her pre-pregnancy body back.
“I will probably start slow with yoga and Pilates. I am delusionally confident. I feel like I will be doing some kind of a stage show like a month later. Everyone tells me I’m crazy but that’s what I visualise,” she said.
Madison is trying to take care of her body throughout the pregnancy.
“I have been trying to eat healthy for the baby, a lot of green smoothies and fruits and vegetables. And I have pregnancy-yoga and Pilates DVDs that I do as much as I can,” she said.

Los Angeles, Dec 9 (IANS) Singer Cheryl Cole has sued the US version of singing reality show “The X Factor” for 1.4 million pounds – for not paying dues after sacking her as a judge last year.
Cheryl, 29, was dumped by show boss Simon Cowell after she shot for just two auditions episodes. She was replaced by singer Nicole Scherzinger.
The lawsuit filed by Cheryl against Cowell and the team includes 62,000 pounds each year for clothes and 16,000 pounds for hair and make-up.
She also wants 9,400 pounds-a-month for rent which she says was promised and 1,600 pounds-a-month for living expenses, reports thesun.co.uk.
“Everyone is surprised by the lawsuit. No judge would be paid for a season they didn’t appear on,” a source said.
Cheryl claims they promised 1.1 million pounds for season one and 1.25 million pounds for season two — and expenses, she says, weren’t paid for either series.

Los Angeles, Dec 9 (IANS) Actress Catherine Zeta-Jones is sick of answering queries about her bipolar disorder and has warned reporters against quizzing her on the same.
The news of the actress’ health issues emerged last year, when she checked into a medical facility in Connecticut to seek treatment for a serious bout of depression.
When asked about how she’s coping with the condition during an interview on US breakfast show Good Morning America, Zeta-Jones snapped back, saying “You know what? I’m sick of talking about it because I never wanted to be the poster child for this. I never wanted this to come out publicly. It came out,” dailystar.co.uk reported.
“I dealt with it in the best way I could and that was just saying that, ‘Look, hey, I’m bipolar’. Everyone has things going on and we’re doing the best we can. We can’t jump from the rooftops shouting about, ‘I have this, look at me, victim’ – no. We all have issues in life and I’m really happy I have great friends, great support and that’s all I can do.”
