Did the gorgeous actor sang?? Of course he did! What would people do in American Idol but sing right?? =) The not-so-good news is that Angelina Jolie wasn’t with Brad Pitt when he performed for charity. It has been an American Idol tradition to “give back” every year through celebrities and former AI contestants, and I think Brad was chosen this year coz of his very laudable housing efforts in New Orleans. According to Us Weekly magazine (they spoke with someone who was in the crowd at the taping of the AI special episode), the crowd went wild when Angelina Jolie’s better half went onstage.

The source further related that American Idol floor manager Debbie McVickers stopped the show because the actor’s mic wasn’t working and was delivering no sound. Thank goodness the show wasn’t live! Glitches like this are major boo-boos! As Debbie tried to attach Brad’s mic, she joked, “I just needed a reason to touch him!” Hahaha! I wonder how Angelina Jolie will feel about that! And the Tree of Life actor, being the good sport that he is, just laughed along with the crowd =) Video footage of Brad’s appearance will air this Wednesday, April 9 @ 7:30-10:00 PM ET/PT on FOX.
