BRAD PITT AND ANGELINA JOLIE HAVE GIVEN AWAY ANOTHER MILLION BUCKS:

You may have heard earlier this week that BRAD PITT and his family donated $1 million to a cancer center in Springfield, Missouri . . . which was renamed The Jane Pitt Pediatric Cancer Center, in honor of his mother.

Well, yesterday, Brad and ANGELINA JOLIE dropped ANOTHER MILLION to charity. Their Jolie-Pitt Foundation handed over the money to aid refugees in Pakistan. (--Millions of people have been driven from their homes, thanks to the resurgence of the Taliban there and in Afghanistan.)

MORE THAN MEETS THE EYE!

Reviews are beginning to come in for "Transformers 2: Revenge of the Fallen". And one of them revealed something interesting about one of the robots. Apparently, there's a scene in which a robot called Devastator . . . who's made up of several construction vehicles . . . is climbing up the side of a pyramid.

In one shot, the camera is looking up at him from below, and two WRECKING BALLS can be seen dangling from his crotch. In other words, they gave the robot TESTICLES. (--No big deal, really. In fact, it's kinda funny. )
