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."

Angelina Jolie could be the newest witness in Britain's ongoing phone hacking trial.Jolie's stunt double, Eunice Huthart, sued News Corp. in June claiming that the newspaper had hacked her phone and intercepted her voice mail messages. Among those messages were confidential conversations with Jolie, Huthart alleged.She listed Jolie among her "potential witnesses" in the lawsuit, according to the Hollywood Reporter on Friday.Huthart told THR that she believes the newspaper's interest in her "derived entirely from her personal and professional relationships to celebrities, such as Jolie and Brad Pitt, which are a product of her Hollywood-based career." Jolie could potentially testify to defend Huthart's claim that her "discretion and trustworthiness were compromised" by the hacking, THR said on Friday.Jolie's name first emerged in trial in July 2012, when she and actor Brad Pitt were identified by prosecutors as victims in the phone hacking scheme. Huthart cited two stories that she alleged used information from her private talks with Jolie.Huthart was Jolie's stunt double in movies such as "Beyond Borders" and "Tomb Raider 2." She said she lived with Jolie earlier in 2004, 2005 while the film, "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" was in production, around the same time she noticed that she was not receiving all of her phone messages.
