Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie shattered rumors that they were to be married at their friend George Clooney’s Italian villa this weekend, by not showing up.
All eyes were on the town of Laglio on Lake Como on Saturday, after it was reported that Hollywood’s hottest couple would wed there, but press and the Italian town’s officials were left disappointed when Brangelina failed to put in an appearance.
"We are at the end of our rope," a spokesman for the town’s residents and mayor said.
"Let's say we are packing it in."
Mayor Simona Saladini says she’d been told to remain on standby to perform official duties on Saturday night, plus police and a private security firm had increased security around George’s villa. However, she failed to say who had tipped her off.
"I have been mayor since 2003 and they would be the most famous couple to be married here," she stated on Saturday morning.
The Mayor of Laglio previously dashed hopes of the wedding happening by revealing that building work around Clooney’s villa would have made any ceremony there almost impossible.
Before the no-show, the town had gone Brangelina crazy but the nearest they got to seeing the couple exchange their vows was watching two guys dressed up as Brad and Ange kiss, and a George Clooney lookalike putting in an appearance.
But it wasn’t all bad news for the people of the area, an owner of a local bar revealed that he had “doubled the number of clients this week."
Brad and Ange are expecting their first child together this summer.

Good for them. But I still feel disappointed about Brad's breakup with Aniston. She is such a sweet person.
