BRAD PITT AND ANGELINA JOLIE WEDDING DAY DETAILS REVEALED

The intimate Aug. 23 ceremony – attended by just 20 friends and family members – was held in the chapel of Château Miraval, the family's estate in the French village of Correns. The wedding – including exclusive photos of the ceremony, Jolie's unique dress (decorated with her children's artwork!) and the entire family's celebration – is featured in this week's issue of PEOPLE, in conjunction with Hello! magazine internationally. 

Each child had a key role to play: Eldest sons Maddox, 13, and Pax, 10, walked their mom down the aisle; flower girls Zahara, 9, and Vivienne, 6, tossed petals gathered from the garden; and Shiloh, 8, and Knox, 6, served as ring bearers. The kids also helped write their parents' vows. And Pax baked the cake! 

The dress, created by Atelier Versace master tailor Luigi Massi, the gown featured a fitted bodice with simple thin straps, the bust complete with ruching, with a plain waist, kicking out into a flowy full skirt.

Luigi then hand-sewed a number of the children's designs onto both the back of the dress and the full-length veil.

'Luigi is like family to me and I couldn't imagine anyone else making this dress,' the 39-year-old bride told the publication. 'He knows and cares for the children and it was great fun putting it together.'

 Angelina kept her hair and make-up simple and elegant for her big day, her long dark brunette locks worn up in a chic bun into which the veil was secured.

Her face was flawless and dewy, with brown shadow on her eyes, lashings of black mascara and a soft rose hue on her famously full lips.


The ceremony was held at the chapel of their property in France, in the village of Correns - 50 miles north east of Marseille.

Twenty guests attended the marriage at Chateau Miraval, including Pitt's parents, Bill and Jane; his brother, Doug; sister, Julie, and her two children. Jolie's father Jon Voight was not present, but he later issued a statement congratulating them.

For Brad and Angelina's complete wedding album, all the details of their big day and more of the couple's interview, pick up this week's issue of PEOPLE, on newsstands Wednesday.

During one of his famous rants, Kanye acknowledged Jay’s role in putting the festival together. “I don’t want to go over the top with it out of respect for my big homie Jay Z,” said ‘Ye.

Jay celebrated a successful end to the first-ever L.A. festival and third annual Philly fest. “L.A. the people have spoken! No major incidents just GREAT music. 70k 2 days. Philly 3x Made in America. In the heart of both cities! 90k,” he tweeted.

ANDRE 3000 TALKS DEPRESSION, COACHELLA, & NEW ALBUM

In April, OutKast launched its 20th anniversary tour at Coachella. Since then, André 3000 and Big Boi have traveled the world, performing at over 40 festivals including OVO Fest, Lollapalooza, and Wireless Festival.

In his first interview since the tour started, the reclusive André spoke to The New York Times about his absence from music, battling depression, and returning to the stage.

André, who is producing a song for Aretha Franklin’s upcoming album, addressed the poor reviews from opening night at Coachella. “They actually got André Benjamin the first night [at Coachella], and I clearly saw they don’t want André Benjamin,” he said. “He loves what he’s done, but I hate cages, and sometimes nostalgia is a cage.”

He was also optimistic about releasing a new solo album. While there is no timeline, he said that the tour has reignited his interest in music.

Plus, he opened up about being a father to his 16-year-old son Seven, the advice that Prince gave him, and his role as Jimi Hendrix in Jimi: All Is by My Side, which opens on September 26.

On growing old in hip-hop: “I remember, at like 25, saying, ‘I don’t want to be a 40-year-old rapper.’ I’m 39 now, and I’m still standing by that. I’m such a fan that I don’t want to infiltrate it with old blood.”

On his recent guest verses: “I struggle with the verses. I don’t sit around and write raps, I just don’t. Now the only time I’m really inspired to write raps is if an artist that I enjoy invites me to their party. So if Future calls and says, ‘Hey man, I want you to do this,’ I don’t want to let Future down. I don’t want to let Lil Wayne or Drake down, because I love them.”

On his decision to tour: “Honestly, I never planned to go onstage again in that way. If I feel like I’m getting to a place where it’s mimicking or a caricature, I just want to move on. But I felt like: Let me do it now ’cause these kids [in the audience], it feels good to know that they’re happy. I really don’t actually get anything from performing. … I feel good in being able to look at Big Boi and say, ‘Hey, man, we did it.’ Big Boi’s got these great records on his own, but this means something else for him.”

On his apology to Big Boi on T.I.’s “Sorry”: “We’ve left millions and millions of dollars on the table. We didn’t even tour for our biggest album [Speakerboxxx/The Love Below]. I just wanted to say I know how hard it must be.”

On his first show at Coachella: “I think people could see it at Coachella, the very first show. It was foreign. My head wasn’t there. I kind of fluffed through rehearsals. A few hours before the Coachella show, I get a message that Prince and Paul McCartney are going to be there. My spirit is not right, and idols are standing side-stage, so as the show started, I’m bummed. This is horrible. In my mind I was already gone to my hotel room halfway through.”

On Prince’s advice: “He said: ‘When you come back, people want to be wowed. And what’s the best way to wow people? Just give them the hits.’ I’m explaining to him that I really didn’t want to do it. He said: ‘I’ve been there. I’ve tried to do other things. After you give them the hits, then you can do whatever.’”

On new music: “I’d love to put out an album. I’m just going to call it honest. I know this may sound morbid, but I was like, if I were to die today, I have all these half-songs on my hard drive, and I don’t want that.”

NICK CANNON DAD CHIMES IN ABOUT HIS SON PENDING DIVORCE FROM MARIAH CAREY

Over the weekend Nick Cannon's father caused controversy after posing a series of cryptic questions on social media that many perceived to be about his son Nick and Mariah Carey's crumbling marriage [click here if you missed that].

Now Nick's dad explains what he thinks could have taken the couple to the next level… 

 James Cannon tells Page Six

“If Nick could have somehow ran her business or worked in conjunction with her they would have been such a power couple in Hollywood. It’s difficult, but look at Beyonce and Jay Z… If that means Nick needed to step aside from his business and taken a lead on Mariah’s work then I think it would have pushed them on a whole new level.”

 Why are Jay and Bey always the reference for everybody else to use?  Where not sure but it's obvious they are the couple to be these days.

BET EXES FIRE STAFF OVER TASTELESS BLUE IVY JOKE MADE BY CHRIS BROWN GIRLFRIEND KARRUCHE TRAN

They just won't let Blue Ivy be great, just because most people just don't like themselves. So now somebody is about to pay the price, 106 and Park on hiatus after tasteless joke about Blue Ivy's hair…

Earlier this week Chris Brown's girlfriend Karrueche Tran made a joke about Jay Z and Beyonce never combing Blue Ivy's hair, one day after Beyonce's show stopping performance at the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards.

BET and 106 and Park set Karruche Tran up for failure yesterday by having her read a list of the top six things Blue Ivy was thinking while she on stage with her father Jay Z to present her mother Beyonce with the Michael Jackson Video Vanguard Award for the 2014 MTV Video Music Awards.

Reading from a teleprompter Karrueche Tran joked that the no. 6 thing Blue Ivy was thinking while on stage was, 

"I really did wake up like this because my parents don't comb my hair."

Now, according to multiple reports, 106 and Park are off the air for the rest of the week and writers and producers associated with the joke have been fired. Of course they would, the thought of Beyonce or Jay-Z never performing on one of there shows again or playing there music means million dollars lost. Not to mention Viacom who owns BET owns MTV also is a devastating blow to the company reputation. And if that isn't enough BET "black entertainment television"  who don't support  the very people they want to entertain is the ultimate failure!!

BET exec Stephen Hill also issued an apology on Twitter read from the bottom up.
