What Is the Significance of Brad Pitt's Hideous Ring?

Commitment ring alert! At a press conference in New Orleans yesterday, where Brad Pitt further elaborated upon his intention to shower the Lower Ninth Ward with 150 new homes, Mr. Angelina Jolie sported a hefty band on the ring finger of his right hand (as well as a T-shirt and newsboy cap, exact replicas of which can be purchased through Brad's Make It Right organization. Because every penny helps!). Though wedding rings are typically worn on the left hand, Pitt's ring may well be a symbol of his spiritual solidarity with the gays, who often wear them on the right. Pitt told Esquire last year that "Angie and I will consider tying the knot when everyone else in the country who wants to be married is legally able." Though Angelina and Maddox were on hand to watch Papa Pitt try and catch up with mamma in the race for celebrity sainthood, Lady Jolie's right hand was obscured. Popsugar
