Brad Pitt just got sexier...if that's possible. This week the studly actor and budding activist gave several interviews to discuss the "Make It Right" Organization he created with the goal to build 150 affordable and eco-friendly homes in the lower ninth district of New Orleans. Pledging $5 million of his own money and asking for any and all donations, Brad said he hopes to rebuild as many as possible of the more than 5000 homes destroyed by hurricane Katrina. He tells the NY Times:

"I've always had a fondness for this place - it's like no other. Seeing the frustration firsthand made me want to return the kindness this city has shown me."

"I see this as a great opportunity. If you have this blank slate and this great technology out there, what better test than low-income housing? It's got to work at all levels to really be viable."

In an interview with Larry King, Brad passionately discussed the eco-friendly aspect of "Making it Right", saying that he has embraced solar panels and water recycling in his own home.

And speaking of home life...Brad also dished to Larry (watch interview) on his relationship with Angelina Jolie - for the first time publicly refuting any romance between the two co-stars during the time that he was still married to Jennifer Aniston and filming of "Mr. & Mrs. Smith". Calling Angie "a woman of strong opinion and very specific beliefs and a great voice, Brad diplomatically stated that he respects Angelina's "great intellect" and said they more often "challenge" each other than fight."

As if being charitable, showing his humanitarian side, and speaking highly of his girlfriend wasn't enough, Brad then went on to gush about fatherhood, calling it "the hardest job of my life and the most rewarding" and explaining that his kids are all the same to - regardless of whether they are adopted or biologically his. "They are as much my blood as I am theirs."

Swoon much?!!!!
