Angelina & BradAngelina Jolie and Brad PittScreen hunk Brad Pitt has angrily denied claims by a US magazine that he and Angelina Jolie are a couple.

UK Weekly reported they pair spent four days together holed up in a secluded villa kissing and cuddling. Fuming Brad says it's rubbish.

The actor stormed: "Because these tabloids are making so much money, and yes I consider US Weekly a tabloid, they go to great lengths to corroborate their stories whether they are true or not.

"This particular story is completely untrue."

The mag said the pair used false names - Mr and Mrs Pilaf - to check in to the £800-a-night hotel in Palm Springs, California.

They had stayed on to do a photo shoot for their new film Mr and Mrs Smith.

A hotel source was quoted as saying: "They were very into each other and didn't leave their villa much.

"They booked in under false names but there's no mistaking who they are.

"When they did surface they relaxed in the pool area.

"They kissed and held each other and Brad rubbed Angelina's back."

Rumours of a real-life relationship spread even though Brad was still married to Jennifer Aniston. Angelina has consistently denied the rumours

Jennifer and Brad announced their split in January and the ex-Friends beauty filed for divorce last month.
