LIFE STYLE EXTRA (UK) - Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have donated $100,000 to the Daniel Pearl Foundation.
The couple's
generous contribution was announced on Tuesday (10.10.06) - on what would have been the late American journalist's birthday.
Brad and Angelina - who are making a film about the life and death of the reporter, who was kidnapped and killed by Islamic extremists in Pakistan in 2002 - said in a statement: "On this day our thoughts go out to Danny's family.
"The Daniel Pearl Foundation is celebrating this day, his birthday, with music festivals around the world. The festivals are a great
reminder of not just Danny's work as a journalist but of his life and his love of music."
In the movie, 'A Mighty Heart', Angelina plays Daniel's widowed wife Mariane Pearl.
It's not the first time the couple have put their hands in their pockets for charity recently.
In September, Brad and Angelina donated $2 million to two humanitarian organizations who are working to try and abolish child poverty and childhood diseases around the world.

Natalie Portman channels Audrey Hepburn
Yahoo NewsThough she is duely humble about the lack of comparison to the film legend, I could think of no one better to model this dress off to promote the charity.
reports:
The 25-year-old Portman, wearing the iconic black column dress
worn by Hepburn in 1961's "Breakfast at Tiffany's," graces the cover of the
upcoming issue of Harper's Bazaar....
"I did feel very elegant suddenly,"
Portman tells the magazine. "I mean, you can't possibly measure up to Audrey
Hepburn; there's no comparison. But the elegance that she exuded was transmitted
to the dress, you know, the feeling, the emotion of it."
The dress, one of
three versions made for the 1961 movie, will be sold to the highest bidder on
Dec. 5 at Christie's auction house in London. It's expected to fetch as much as
$130,000.
Proceeds from the dress will go to the City of Joy Aid charity,
which provides aid to India's poor.
