Brad Pitt drops $500,000 on furniture

MSNBC
The Scoop

Until someone spots a very pregnant Angelina Jolie out and about, rumors that she gave birth will persist.

The latest evidence to come out of Brangelina babygate seems to support the claim that the celebrity twins have not been brought into the world.

Baby daddy Brad Pitt traveled to Switzerland on June 3 for Design Miami/Basel, an art and design exhibition, according to an organizer of the event. While there, he dropped $293,000 on a marble table by designer Jeroen Verhoeven, ordered a rug made of aluminum thread that sells at $175 per square foot, and is considering purchasing a gold lacquer-coated fiberglass sofa by Zaha Hadid that will run him $300,000.

Also on the tab: two Ron Arad chairs that certainly were not cheap (a hint: some outlets sell the chairs for $25,000 each) and the “Family Lamp” by Atelier van Lieshout. Total price for the two-hour shopping trip? At least $500,000, according to the organizer, possibly more.

The only thing that seems less likely than a dad spending half a million dollars on furniture just days after welcoming newborn twins is a dad embarking on the trip without bringing along any of the four kids he already has. According to a source at the event, Pitt didn’t have Maddox, Shiloh, Zahara or Pax with him for the trip.

That said, “Entertainment Tonight,” which originally reported the birth of the Jolie-Pitt twins, stands by its story.

*long stare* .......293.000 thousand dollars for a table?

Ya know, I can't even imagine. I would say, "Brad, it is a table!!" I saw the table, it was amazing, I loved the designed, but, "Brad, it is 293.000 thousand dollars." *stare* I have a hard time spending 3000 thousand dollars on a table let alone 293.000 dollars.

I suppose if you live in a 60 million dollar home, you have to put 293.000 dollar tables in it.
