Angelina Jolie Takes Brad Pitt into the Clouds  8/3/05

Hollywood beauty Angelina Jolie took Brad Pitt for a ride aboard a private plane yesterday (02AUG05), in the face of increased speculation that they are a couple.

The Mr & Mrs Smith stars, who have repeatedly denied reports they are an item since Pitt separated from his Friends star wife Jennifer Aniston in January (05), took to the skies near Los Angeles.

Qualified pilot Jolie last month (JUL05) became a mother for the second time, when she adopted Ethiopian baby Zahara Marley, six months. She is already mum to three-year-old Cambodian boy MADDOX.
