Pitt halts waxwork wedding

Brad Pitt has forced bosses at Madame Tussauds waxwork museum to pull the plug on a publicity stunt involving himself, girlfriend Angelina Jolie and a Las Vegas wedding.

Tussauds' marketing brains in Sin City had arranged for Pitt's wax double to marry Jolie's new figure in a cheesy ceremony at the museum housed in The Venetian Resort tomorrow.

Pitt has vetoed the quirky plans however, telling museum bosses he is "disappointed" with their approach to the unveiling of Jolie's new waxwork.

Spokesman Jack Taylor said: "Calls were made and we have decided to honour the requests of Mr Pitt's people.

"We're disappointed but we have an excellent relationship with celebrities and felt it best to cancel this event."
