Brad Pitt & Angelina Jolie: The Breakup Reported By InTouch

Well. Well. Well.  Look what we have here.  Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are on the verge of a breakup.

Do I believe that this cover is true?

No.

Will it work on the newsstand?

Most likely.

The celebrity weekly category – especially InTouch – has gone this direction so many times that I believe the reader is catching up with these shenanigans.

That’s why it’s not a definitive YES!

Working in InTouch Weekly’s favor is the new detail about Angelina Jolie’s brother moving in with the couple to apparently “stop” the breakup.

Sometimes that’s all you need to make an overused story new again.

Plus, the main line: “THE BREAKUP” is dramatic and makes the reader think at a glance that the couple has already broken up.

Bottom Line: Big test for InTouch.  If this doesn’t work, what’s next for Brangelina?
