Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie get their fair share of speculation on their love life. It is mostly fair game as when they met on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith, sparks flew and so did the rumors. It didn’t help that both Brad and Angelina continued to deny everything until they showed up in Louisville, Kentucky together. But the latest blind item that grew to a threesome is a bit much. In Touch reveals in this week’s issue how it at times gets a bit out of control.
The magazine reports in its cover story this week that when a wild gossip item ran in the April 5 New York Daily News asking, “Which megastar couple, whose torrid fling was first flagged in this column, consummated their acquaintance with a ménage a trios?” many wondered if it could be Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.
From there, rumors began to circulate all the way from New York to Los Angeles, the magazine reports in a story in this week’s issue. It just kept growing.
The report claims that during a party on April 10 at New York’s Indochine restaurant for photographer Patrik Andersson, a guest was overheard claiming that Brad, 43, and Angie,31, were having an affair with 23-year-old supermodel Karolina Kurkova. Even for Angelina - who’s had affairs with women before and once boasted that she had two lovers at the same time - it was the steamiest rumor yet. But the gossip didn’t stop there.
Another insider dished that Karolina was overheard at a recent fashion fitting talking about her relationship with the couple. The insider says, “She was giddy, acting like a schoolgirl.”
As much as it sounds like a late night Cinemax movie that everyone would like to see, it is very, very likely not true. There’s no proof that the trio have ever been together at the same time. That’s a pretty big key for a threesome. And Karolina, who lives in Manhattan with her boyfriend of four years, Alessandro, tells In Touch, “I have never met them.” But don’t be surprised to see it more. Brad and Angie are in Prague and guess where the supermodel is from - the Czech Republic.

Keane front man Tom Chaplin believes that Pete Doherty should be left to his own devices to conquer his drug problems.
The troubled Babyshambles (and former Libertines front man) has spent years battling an addiction to drugs, and despite various arrests and stints in rehab, he has failed to stay sober for over a year.
Chaplin, who checked into prestigious rehab clinic The Priory in London at the same time as Doherty last year, says that the boyfriend of supermodel Kate Moss, will only give up drugs if he really wants to.
Chaplin tells British music magazine Q, “No-one’s got any right to stop him killing himself.”

Supermodel Helena Christensen is to be the face of a campaign urging people to “do a good turn” and wash clothes in cold water to help save the environment.
Ms Christensen, in partnership with washing powder Ariel, is to feature in a TV advertisement urging a more environmentally friendly approach to using the washing machine.
“Simply switching the dial on your washing machine . . . can save up to 40 per cent of the energy used in each load,” Christensen, a keen environmentalist, says.

KATE MOSS for Topshop already seems like last week’s news as we gear up for the launch of Lilly Allen’s range for New Look.
But who’s gonna win the style war? Are you just crazy about Kate or weak with longing for a first sight of Lily’s styles?
No name steals more headlines than Kate Moss. The chance to look like one of the world’s top style icons has seen women flocking to Topshop since Monday.
Boring, badly made and barely a bargain in sight was the critic’s opinion but for most of us, it was a chance to own a piece of fashion history we could tell our kids about.
So much so that items like a pretty floral sundress were going for triple their original price on eBay.
But now we’re over it. Style never stands still and our beady eyes have spotted that Lily Allen’s range launches in New Look next Wednesday.
So will the Lily Loves collection fare as well with the punters?
Bosses at the chain certainly hope so. “Lily is young, very talented, gorgeous, opinionated and feisty, and we think a lot of our customers will identify with that,” said Sarah Walter, head of fashion communication.
The quirky mix of six summer dresses, bright peep-toe heels and pumps are a colourful reflection of Lily’s own signature look.
She said recently of the range: “All my dresses are super-girly but that doesn’t mean you have to be a size zero. They’re easy to wear. In fact, the more curves the better!”
The cheeky Londoner took a swipe at Kate’s range too: “I’ve seen a couple of pieces - they look cool. Would I wear them? Me, personally? I don’t think I’d fit in them.”
Fans of her street-smart style will no doubt agree. Lily Loves was inspired by the singer’s own wardrobe of 300 dresses and promises feminine flounces with an urban edge.
As Sun fashion writer Chloe Wood explains: “The feisty popster’s forgiving summer frocks and structured prom dresses will suit both slim and fuller figures alike.
“Plus she hasn’t gone overboard on the publicity, so we’re not sick to death of the mention of her name before the clothes are even on the rails.”
