Brad Looking Forward to Pax’s First Christmas

What is Brad Pitt looking forward to this Christmas?

“Our son Pax is four, and this will be his first Christmas,” Brad told the “Today” show. “I don’t think they had much of a Christmas in the orphanage, and our daughter’s turning three and should have good memories from this Christmas, so it’s a special Christmas for us.”

Not only is it a special time for his family, who will celebrate the holiday in the Big Easy, but it’s a Christmas wish come true for his Make It Right campaign. The foundation, dedicated to build 150 eco-friendly houses in New Orleans, just received an anonymous $1 million donation and the support of actors Will Ferrell and David Spade.

“It’s been fantastic,” he said. “We’ve had 12,000 people across America come in and donate…It’s working. It’s really working. It’s that thing we talked about of people coming together and people helping people, and that’s where America’s great.”

Britney Tells Photog Jamie Lynn 'Is Not Pregnant!'

Is Britney Spears completely out of the loop about her sister's pregnancy or just trying to fool the paparazzi?

The pop star, 26, went shopping yesterday and told photographers from X-17 that her sister Jamie Lynn, 16, wasn't expecting.

"She's not pregnant," Britney clearly told the cameras.

Maybe she's just in shock. Brit appeared to be blindsided by the news of the pregnancy on Tuesday and is reportedly overwhelmed by the extra media attention.

Shotgun Wedding for Jamie Lynn and Casey?


Will 16-year-old Jamie Lynn and daddy-to-be Casey Aldridge tie the knot?

Casey's uncle, Odus Jackson, hopes the two take their time.

"Casey has said he would like to go ahead and get married as soon as possible, but there's a lot of water to go under the bridge before they can really get to that point," Jackson told "Extra."

He echoed the same sentiment to People.

"I hope they will stick it out and get married for the child's sake and their sake," he said. "But if they're not in love and it was just a fantasy, they don't need to make the same mistake twice."

Jackson also revealed that Mississippi native Aldridge, 18, was a "typical country boy" who never gave the family too many problems. But he said that when he flew out to California to be with Jamie Lynn on the set of "Zoey 101," he was bound to run into trouble.

"You know when you put boy and girl together, it don't work," he said. "Testosterone is tough to control."
