Brad and Angie to set up house in Jozi?

Hollywood's hottest power couple, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, will reportedly be making Johannesburg their home this year.


The couple will reportedly pay R85 000 a month to rent a mansion in the luxurious Sandhurst suburb in Sandton, Beeld reported.

The private rent agreement will be for eight months and is expected to will cost the stars R680 000 for the full duration. Pitt and his friend George Clooney will be shooting a movie in South Africa this year, though the project itself is shrouded in secrecy.

It will not be the couple’s first stay in the region. They travelled to the city Swakopmund in neighbouring Namibia in 2006 where Jolie gave birth to their first biological child, daughter Shiloh Jolie-Pitt.

At the time Namibian police and private bodyguards mounted tight security to shield them from prying eyes.

The country later offered the baby girl Namibian citizenship.
