– Now that Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are finally engaged, get ready for a barrage of rumors about the where, when, who, and how. The Daily Express kicks things off, citing a source who claims the couple will fly 200 to 300 people (including George Clooney, Tom Cruise, and more big names) to their $55 million estate in the south of France for a summer wedding. Guests will enjoy wines from the vineyard at their 35-room Château Miraval as Brad and Angie tie the knot at a private chapel on the grounds; they've spent millions refurbishing the estate and have been planning the wedding for half a year already, the source adds. Yet more sources blab to the Sun, claiming that Jennifer Aniston herself may be one of the boldface names attending the nuptials. Brad's ex "couldn't be happier" for her former hubby and his new flame, since "if it weren't for Angelina, Jennifer would not have connected with" new boyfriend Justin Theroux, says one. Last but not least, People has a close-up shot of Angelina's humongous ring. "Brad had the vision" for the custom sparkler, the jeweler tells the magazine. An expert thinks it could be worth more than $1 million and weigh more than 10 carats. Of course, that's way less expensive than a number of celebrity engagement rings.
