Angelina Jolie wows fans in Japan
Hollywood stars Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have said they are too busy changing diapers to celebrate their Oscar nominations. The couple strolled up the red carpet in Japan of the premiere of Pitt's latest film, The Curious Case of Benjamin Button which gained him an Academy Award nomination for best actor. Jolie, who already boasts an Oscar, has been nominated for the best actress award for her performance in Changeling, directed by Clint Eastwood. "Man, we're too busy dealing with Kleenexes and diapers and getting everyone fed to really celebrate. We'll do that next year," Pitt said. In July 2008, Jolie gave birth in France to twins, a girl named Vivienne Marcheline and a boy named Knox Leon. Jolie and Pitt are parents to four other young children - Maddox, Pax, Zahara, and Shiloh. Pitt said he was excited that the couple had been nominated for awards at the same time. "It is nice, we go and support each other - very cool and rare I think," he said. Pitt and Jolie arrived in Japan with all six of their children on Tuesday to promote their respective films. The Curious Case of Benjamin Button, a costly drama that took decades to get to screen, leads the field of Oscar contenders with a total of 13 nominations. The 81st Academy Awards will be held in Hollywood on February 22.
