Appearing on Andy Cohen's Watch What Happens Live , the host quizzed her about the rumours.“That was the craziest rumor of all time,” she said. “There’s nothing true to that. As a matter of fact. I hadn’t actually seen him in, like, four years."It was kind of an awesome rumour. I kind of liked it. I was like, ‘OK, fine. We’re having twins!'” While both Kate and Brad didn't publicly comment on the rumours at the time, Kate's brother Oliver couldn't resist poking fun at them.Back in January he posted an image of one of the weekly US magazines which was reporting that newly-single Brad had even moved into Kate's house.Alongside a picture of the pair of them and a moving van, it also included a quote from mum Goldie Hawn which said: "He makes my daughter so happy!"

"He's already calling me brother and has driven a wedge between myself and my real brother Wyatt who now won't speak to me.. he insists my kids call him uncle B and lost my youngest at the Santa Monica pier for 2 days.. thank god for amber alert.. my mom's overtly flirting with him! Shes wearing these little nighties around the house now?! But ALL DAY!! Like at 3pm!" He continued: "And Pa just keeps saying 'All right!! It's Brad Pitt!!' Anyway not going well.. so BP.. it's time to move out man.. I need my life back dog.. I'll smoke one more bowl and then get the f**k out.. we thank you.. oh and I found your medical bracelet so I'll get that back to you.. ok.." In September of last year, Kate revealed she had a crush on Angelina's ex.The You, Me and Dupree actress - who was engaged to Muse rock star Matt Bellamy until December 2014 - opened up about trying to find a new man after the split from the father of her son Bingham."I'm for sure a flirt, like I love to flirt," she admitted during an interview for the Howard Stern Show.

Angelina Jolie will deliver a keynote address at next week's international peacekeeping summit in Vancouver, her office has confirmed to CBC News.More than 80 countries have so far said they will attend the two-day United Nations ministerial meeting beginning on Nov. 14, where improving the gender balance of peacekeeping operations will be one of the overarching themes.The Academy Award-winner and special envoy of the United Nations' High Commissioner for Refugees will deliver her remarks on the second day of the summit. The content of her address is not known but she is expected to broach issues she has touched on many times in the past, including the prevention of sexual violence in conflict and justice for victims. According to a draft program obtained by The Canadian Press, the other major address at the summit will be delivered by Patrick Shanahan, the U.S. deputy secretary of defence.More than five years ago Jolie and former British foreign secretary William Hague launched the Preventing Sexual Violence in Conflict Initiative. Last year she made a surprise appearance at the first UN Peacekeeping Defence Ministerial meeting in London, where she called for the prosecution of peacekeepers accused of sexual exploitation and abuse, as well as the deployment of more women peacekeepers."Peacekeeping forces can only gain and keep the trust of local populations if they are able to engage with women as well as men in that community," she told delegates in the room.Jolie told the delegates that numbers alone won't resolve conflicts and that modern peacekeeping must have ''the rights and protection and involvement of women at its heart." Defence Minister Harjit Sajjan was among the 80 or so defence ministers at the 2016 UN meeting, where he reaffirmed Canada's commitment to playing a leadership role in peace operations."Conflicts today are more complex than ever before, and we're serious about being part of the solution," he told delegates. "That's the reason we're bringing our resources and skills to the table."It's expected Ottawa will announce the long-awaited details of that contribution either at or right before the peacekeeping summit next week.

Angelina Jolie vamped it up in a leggy LBD for Deadline Hollywood's seventh annual The Contenders event in West Hollywood on Saturday.The Oscar winner easily defied her 41 years in the black-knit turtleneck mini-dress and matching leather booties selected by stylist Jen Rade.The divorced mother-of-six also rocked a red pout and dark aviator sunglasses with her perky ponytail at the Directors Guild of America Theater.Angelina benevolently greeted her waiting Los Angeles-area fans outside the venue by signing autographs and posing for selfies.Jolie has been single since legally separating from third husband Brad Pitt a year ago after two years of marriage and three children - Shiloh, 11; and twins Vivienne & Knox, 9.If anyone can commiserate with the former Hollywood wild child it's Mudbound actress Mary J. Blige, who's still divorcing ex-manager Martin 'Kendu' Isaacs after 13 years of marriage.Joining the Special Envoy for the UN High Commissioner for Refugees was her longtime friend and co-screenwriter, Loung Ung wearing a sleeveless black dress. Angelina met the 47-year-old human rights activist 16 years ago and together they adapted her 2006 memoir First They Killed My Father into a Netflix film currently streaming.During the awards season Q&A, Jolie announced that her fifth directorial effort is Cambodia's official entry for next year's Academy Awards best foreign film category.'If I may, we Cambodians don't consider Angie a Western woman,' Loung told moderator Pete Hammond.'She's ours and she's been a citizen since 2005 - and before that, she was Cambodian in spirit.' Ung added: 'We clicked right away - she was really, really authentic. She really hates it when I gush about her in public, but she's a really cool person!' The By the Sea director's 16-year-old son Maddox (born Rath Vibol) received an executive-producing credit for the genocide drama and her 13-year-old son Pax shot still photography for it. 'Every Cambodian person in this film knew someone who was affected by the war and they came back to do this for their loved ones,' Angelina explained. 'During the war, artists were killed because of their influence. Having the artists come back to paint the sets and act the scenes was so inspiring. You're not sad about the story, but your proud of what this country can do creatively.' The Khmer-language drama currently holds a 89 percent critic approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, a 72 percent approval rating on MetaCritic, and a 7.3/10 on IMDb. The Kung Fu Panda 3 actress will soon begin production on the sequel to the hit Disney villain origin story Maleficent.
