Welcome To The 'Ville, Angelina

A meteor could be on a collision course with earth right now, predicted to hit our planet some time this weekend, and the people of Louisville would be praying that it didn't hit until after Saturday night.  Why Saturday night, you ask?  Saturday night is when Angelina Jolie is going to be in Louisville.

Angelina is expected to appear at the opening of the Muhammad Ali Center.  The city has been abuzz for weeks about Angelina's visit.  She's probably going to attract more attention at the gala event than Muhammad Ali himself.  I think we're more excited about her coming here then we are about Ali's museum opening.  There wasn't this much talk earlier this year when Orlando Bloom and Kirsten Dunst were in town to film some scenes for "Elizabethtown."

The city has rolled out the red carpet for the stars, and have set up bleechers downtown on Main Street close to the Ali Center and to the Center For The Arts, where the star-studded event will be held.  True the stargazers will be kept at bay across the street from the actual red carpet where the stars will arrive, but at least they'll hopefully get a glimpse of Angelina and the others as they make their way down the red carpet.  Joining Jolie will be President Clinton, Jim Carrey, and Jamie Fox to name a few.  Stars scheduled to perform at the event include Wynonna, B.B. King, Ruben Stoddard and James Taylor.  Rumor has it Entertainment Tonight will be covering this, so be sure to tune in Monday night and see if Louisville made it to ET.

There's been lots of speculation but no confirmation on whether or not Brad Pitt will be acompanying Angelina Jolie tonight.  I'm sure the bookies here in town would probably be accepting bets and giving you odds that Brad will be here with her.

What exactly IS it about that woman?

Some think she's hotter than hot. Others think she has pontoon lips.

Whatever it is, she has it in spades. Charisma to the nth.

Brad did accompany Angelina to the big event last night.  He was sporting his current black dyed hair.  I've been scouring the web for an hour, trying to find a picture of her taken last night but haven't found anything yet.  I won't stop until I find a picture to post in TWIT.
