Brad Pitt threw a pizza party for daughter Shiloh’s birthday which saw him reunite with ALL his kids | Daily Mail Online

It seems Brad Pitt‘s domestic life has taken a turn for the better, and just in time for his daughter Shiloh’s 14th birthday.

The Once Upon A Time In Hollywood star reportedly threw a lavish birthday party for his daughter Shiloh on Wednesday, according to The Sun.

The fete, to mark Shiloh’s 14th trip around the sun, was attended by all of her siblings, which included her eldest brother Maddox, 18 – who had up until recently been estranged from his father.

‘Brad really wanted to make Shiloh’s day special and had been planning it for a while, he can’t believe how grown up she is,’ a source told The Sun.

‘He has an expensive pizza oven at his house and made her favorite dish for the party, while also celebrating with a cake.’ 

The insider also said Shiloh’s siblings, 11-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne, Zahara, 15, Pax, 16, and Maddox, were all in attendance at the 56-year-old Oscar winner’s Los Feliz, California home.

‘Shiloh’s birthday really brought them all together, and she had plenty of presents to open on the day,’ the source continued.

‘One of Brad’s film editor pals put together a video of messages from her family and friends all over the world, some of whom she hadn’t seen in a while due to the pandemic.

‘Shiloh is really into photography and Brad also bought her a vintage Polaroid camera and created a book of all her best photographs from the past few years,’ the insider added.

And to top it all off, Pitt also surprised Shiloh with a studio session with a guitarist for lessons on how to play.

Brad’s children have been spending the majority of their time during the pandemic with their mom Angelina, 44, whose $25million home is mere minutes from Brad’s mansion.

It all stemmed from an allegedly heated fight on a private jet that year, which resulted in Angelina and Brad calling it quits and Maddox not speaking to his father for an extended period. 

But more recently, sources claim the exes have been ‘getting on better’ since agreeing on a custody schedule for their children. 

‘Brad’s kids are the most important thing to him. He tells his friends he learns so much about life from his own children,’ a source told Entertainment Tonight on Wednesday.

‘He and Angie have been getting along so much better since the custody rules have been worked out. They have come so far.’

As protests continue in the wake of George Floyd’s death, many celebrities have been using their giant platforms to raise awareness, spread important information, and share resources with their fans. And some stars, like Ariana Grande and Halsey, have shown solidarity with protesters by taking to the streets themselves.

On Saturday, May 30, Halsey shared a series of photos, videos, and updates from a protest in Los Angeles. In an Instagram Live video, Halsey filmed a portion of the LA gathering from amid a crowd where police were allegedly shooting rubber bullets. In another tweet accompanied by photos, the singer wrote that law officials “fired rubber bullets at us. we did not breach the line. hands were up. unmoving. and they gassed and fired.”

According to posts making the rounds on social media, Ariana Grande, Madison Beer, Lauren Jauregui, Cody Fern, and Tinashe were also in attendance at protests this weekend. “THAT’S WHAT ‘USING YOUR PLATFORM’ TRULY MEANS,” one fan wrote on Twitter, with another adding: “Ariana Grande is one of the biggest artists in the world. Not only did she use her platform to express her anger and pain towards what’s going on she also participated in the streets with the rest of the protesters.”

Other stars, though not on the frontlines, have been doing their part to support those on the ground. As noted by E!

Chrissy Teigen is lending a helping hand.

Since the May 25 death of African-American Minneapolis, Minn. resident George Floyd, protests have spread across the nation, resulting in a high number of arrests.

On Saturday afternoon, Teigen, 34, took to Twitter to announce her plan to donate $100,000 toward the bailouts of those arrested in the protests, jabbing President Donald Trump in the process.

“In celebration of whatever the f–k maga night is, I am committed to donating $100,000 to the bail outs of protestors across the country,” she wrote online, referencing Trump’s suggestion that Saturday was to be “MAGA Night at the White House.”

No stranger to backlash, Teigen faced criticism for her decision to support protestors, many followers calling her out for supporting “violent thugs.”

Another Twitter user, per Entertainment Tonight, slammed the model for supporting “rioters and criminals.”

“Ooo they might need more money then,” replied Teigen. “Make it $200,000.”

Teigen continued to slam those that oppose the protests, calling them “racist a–es” and “full of s–t.”

Protests were sparked around the country after Floyd died when a white police officer pinned his knee to Floyd’s neck for several minutes as he struggled for air and begged for his life.

“I prefer to be called OBO, not Odogwu” – Davido (video) – AkPraise

Nigerian artiste, David Adeleke, better known as Davido, has told his fans that prefers to be called ‘OBO’.

This comes after the singer shared a video of his fans chanting ‘Odogwu’ (Great Man) at him.

Earlier this year, Burna Boy released a song dubbed, ‘Odogwu’ and he said whenever he is in Igbo Land, that is what he is called and he typically responds by dancing.

In a follow-up post, Davido clearly stated that he doesn’t want to the title and he would rather stick to his nickname, ‘OBO’ (Omo Baba Olowo which means Son of a Rich Man).

In his words;

“I like to go as OBO as it’s been for the last 10 years”

Lil Wayne on George Floyd’s Death: “If We Want to Place the Blame on Anybody, It Should Be Ourselves” | Consequence of Sound

Lil Wayne has addressed the killing of George Floyd, the Minneapolis man who died with the knee of police officer Derek Chauvin on his neck. In a conversation with Fat Joe on Instagram Live on Friday, Wayne said, “If we want to place the blame on anybody, it should be ourselves for not doing more than what we think we’re doing.”

The controversial remarks came after a conversation about the time a police officer saved Wayne’s life. At the age of 12, the precocious rapper discharged a hand-gun and shot himself in the chest. Robert Hooper, an off-duty cop whom Weezy referred to as “Uncle Bob,” appeared on the scene. He said that, on the way to the hospital, Cooper “sat in the backseat with me and held me in his arms.”

At the conclusion of that story, Fat Joe asked Lil Wayne about the death of George Floyd. Weezy responded by saying,

“I think when we see these situations, I think we also have to understand that we have to get very specific, we have to get so specific. And what I mean by that is we have to stop viewing it with such a broad view, meaning we have to stop placing the blame on the whole force and the whole everybody of a certain race or everybody with a badge. We have to actually get into who that person is. And if we want to place the blame on anybody, it should be ourselves for not doing more than what we think we’re doing.”

Later, Lil Wayne explained why he rarely involved himself in politics. “Some people put a tweet out and they think they did something. Some people wear a shirt and they think they did something. What you gonna do after that? Did you actually help the person? Did you actually help the family? Did you actually go out there and do something? So, if I ain’t about to do all that, then I ain’t about to do nothing. I’ll pray for ya.”

Finally, he suggested that many people expressing outrage haven’t done enough to educate themselves. “What we need to do is we need to learn about it more. If we wanna scream about something, know what we’re screaming about. If we wanna protest about something, know what we’re protesting about. Because if we wanna get into it, there’s a bunch of facts that we think we know that we don’t know. … We scream about things that, sometimes, they really ain’t true.”

Check out the clip about George Floyd below, and scroll onwards for the full conversation with Fat Joe, which begins around the 48-minute mark.

Back in 2016, Lil Wayne was heavily criticized when he claimed “there was no such thing as racism.” He cited his large number of white fans as evidence.

Last night, Lil Wayne released an expanded deluxe edition of his most recent album, Funeral.
