Recently New York became the sixth state to legalise gay marriage in the US. On the heels of this development, Hollywood actor Brad Pitt said every American should have the right to marry whoever they want, and supported the new legislation in favour of same-sex marriage.
He even said that he won't wed Angelina Jolie until gay marriage is legal everywhere. "I have love in my life, a soul mate. When someone asked me why Angie and I don't get married, I replied, 'Maybe we'll get married when it's legal for everyone else.' I stand by that, although I took a lot of flak for saying it — hate mail from religious groups. They say gay marriage ruins families and hurts kids. Well, I've had the privilege of seeing my gay friends being parents and watching their kids grow up in a loving environment."
