What do you get the woman who has everything for Christmas? As Brad Pitt prepares to spend the holidays with Angelina Jolie and their six children, he has already poured out his heart on the page, expressing his devotion to the woman he loves. But it’s NOT a special Christmas note for Jolie! Radar has uncovered secret love letters that Pitt penned for an ex-girlfriend, actress Jill Schoelen.“I adore you. I will love you forever,” one letter to Schoelen reads. And in another, he gushes, “I can’t stop thinking about you. I don’t feel complete without you next to me.”Pitt wrote the letters while dating Schoelen in the late 80s. She has revealed, “Brad wrote me one of the most beautiful poems a man can write a woman. I thought he was so deep and soulful.” And dating him, she claimed, was “a beautiful life experience.” But that wasn’t enough for the horror movie actress. In 1989, she broke his heart by dumping him for the director of a film she was making in Hungary.“It was one of my worst moments,” Pitt has said of the breakup that came after he bared his soul. “You don’t forget something like that, and maybe I’ve never quite gotten over the feeling of humiliation.”Explaining why Jolie might not ever get a similarly sweet note, he said the experience “may have affected the way I’ve conducted relationships since.”Still, Brangelina have seemed happier than ever while spending the holidays in Australia, where Jolie is directing her next film, Unbroken. The couple were spotted picking up last-minute gifts for their kids at a Target in a mall in Queensland on December 22.

Angelina Jolie's mastectomy raised awareness, not knowledge

Widespread awareness of Angelina Jolie's preventive double mastectomy did not translate into increased knowledge of breast cancer risk, U.S. researchers say. Jolie heightened awareness about breast cancer when she announced in a New York Times op-ed she had undergone a preventive double mastectomy, but researchers at the University of Maryland School of Public Health and the Johns Hopkins School of Public Health revealed widespread awareness of Jolie's story did not translate into increased understanding of breast cancer risk. The survey of more than 2,500 U.S. adults found three-quarters were aware of Jolie's story, but fewer than 10 percent could correctly answer questions about the BRCA gene mutation that Jolie carries and the typical person's risk of developing breast cancer. Though very rare, women with harmful mutations in either of two genes, BRCA1 and BRCA2, have a risk of breast cancer that is about five times the normal risk, and a risk of ovarian cancer that is about 10 to 30 times normal. The average woman's risk of getting breast cancer over her lifetime if she does not have a BRCA mutation is between 5 percent and 15 percent. "Ms. Jolie's health story was prominently featured throughout the media and was a chance to mobilize health communicators and educators to teach about the nuanced issues around genetic testing, risk, and prophylactic surgery," lead author Dina Borzekowski of the University of Maryland School of Public Health's Department of Behavior and Community Health.
"It feels like it was a missed opportunity to educate the public about a complex but rare health situation." Additionally, exposure to Jolie's story was associated with greater confusion, rather than clarity, about the relationship between a family history of cancer and increased cancer risk. About half incorrectly thought that a lack of family history of cancer was associated with a lower than average personal risk of cancer, and among respondents who had at least one close relative affected by cancer, those who were aware of Jolie's story were less likely than those who were unaware of her story to estimate their own cancer risk as higher than average -- 39 percent vs. 59 percent. "Since many more women without a family history develop breast cancer each year than those with, it is important that women don't feel falsely reassured by a negative family history," study co-author Dr. Debra Roter, director of the Center for Genomic Literacy and Communication at the Johns Hopkins Bloomberg School of Public Health, said.

As one of the premiere members of Hollywood's A-list, Brad Pitt has graced the cover of many a magazine, from People to GQ to W.And now, as he celebrates his 50th birthday, he's reached a new milestone: AARP The Magazine.The organization concocted a special cover in celebration of Pitt's 50th on December 18, welcoming him to their neck of the woods."Acclaimed Actor, Producer, Humanitarian and Family man, Mr. Pitt Joins the Club," the cover's headline reads.But, as is probably the case with his award-winning wine, Pitt's only getting better with age. The star managed to turn around the beleaguered zombie thriller "World War Z" in time for summer blockbuster season, and was rewarded with strong reviews and enough box office success to spawn a sequel.This fall, he's had another hit with the acclaimed -- and awards season front-runner -- "12 Years A Slave," which he helped produce and also has a small role in.Off set, Pitt told Esquire magazine earlier this year that he was completely content as he headed toward the big 5-0."I have a handful of close friends and I have my family and I haven't known life to be any happier," he said. "I'm making things. I just haven't known life to be any happier."
