Brad Pitt may have an expensive new movie to promote, but that doesn't
mean he's going to dish about his private life in the process. In his
November cover story in Vanity Fair, the blond, big-screen stud, next
appearing as Death in Meet Joe Black, is reluctant to talk about his
current affair with Jennifer Aniston—or his onetime engagement to
Gwyneth Paltrow.

On the subject of the Friends star, with whom he's been photographed
bussing, Pitt confesses, "I have no idea what to tell you. No idea."
The Seven Years in Tibet star does admit that he's dating Aniston,
but says they're not rushing into anything. "Listen, if it's not
right, I don't want it," he admits, but adds, "I'm telling you
straight: It's a damn good time of my life."

Pitt had little to say about his onetime love, who's now in the arms
of Ben Affleck. "Since you started dating, there's always been that
period until you find the one you want to go the distance with," he
says. But Pitt doesn't think he rushed into his engagement with
Paltrow, insisting, "No. I believed." When he's asked whether he's
talked to the Sliding Doors actress since they decided to call it
quits, the less-than-verbose star says, "It's done."

But there's good news for Aniston: Pitt's soured romance with Paltrow
hasn't turned him off to the idea of marriage. "What's a bigger high?
Spending your life with another—I feel I'd be quite good at it."
