Brad Pitt's mother, Jane, threw her support behind Mitt Romney earlier this year, criticising Barack Obama for his liberal views on same-sex marriage. However, the Hollywood star tells Mandrake that the American president retains his vote.
I am an Obama supporter and Im backing his election campaign, Pitt says at a screening of his forthcoming film Killing Them Softly, at the Mayfair Hotel in London. Gay marriage is inevitable. The next generation, they get it. It is just a matter of time before it becomes a reality.
The star of Oceans Eleven said in 2006 said that he would not marry Angelina Jolie until America allowed same-sex unions. Pitt and Jolie announced their engagement in April. The following month, Obama declared his support for homosexual marriage.
