on she asked for sole custody, said he should have visitation. we'll see how that -- >> sends up a flag. seems this was awfully, almost something facilitated it. >> loved parenting those children so much. you would think the natural thing, each have, share -- >> how weird it was. when we learned about it yesterday, i was surprised how, like, personally upset or moved i was from -- i don't know them, but it's -- >> sad, yes. >> funny how people you don't know, there's a breakup and suddenly you feel it. and i was kind of thinking about the only other time i ever felt something when a celebrity was going through something when tiger woods cheated on his wife and it made me so mad. every woman ever cheated on wanted to kill tiger woods.

>> something about taking it out on the other person. i wondered if this breakup what seemed to be a perfect couple -- >> not perfect. >> well, not perfect. seemed they found their way. >> and the breast cancer scares, reconstruction, everything else, and then you thought, that has so solidified -- >> rock solid. >> now they are rock solid. couldn't go through something like that. from all appearances saying how amazing he was with her through all of that. >> you always wonder what the bl because you never know. so -- >> we have a good idea here in new york. >> right. but you never know exactly the board placement. >> get right to the point. >> this one had no words. a photo on the "new york post." jennifer aniston in hysterical laughter. and it has the birthday and, in angelina's corner. >> like to think she's not going on that way. gone on, found happiness. >> would you you? maybe a little?

>> she was so defined by their relationship. people kept saying, poor jennifer, poor jennifer aniston and probably happy with her life but imagine you're always being compared, and they're doing all of this work for the world and, anyway -- maybe she is a little -- >> i've lived a lot longer than you, hoda, and probably most people watching, but this just so reminds me of elizabeth taylor and richard burton. they got back together -- twice they were married, right? >> what did it feel like? >> they broke up a lot in between -- just, everybody -- it's not that people were mourning. so invested. my theory on these things is that those two were exactly like angelina and brad in that they were the biggest movie stars in the world. >> oh, yeah, yeah. >> everything was heightened. you could just imagine that their sex life was off the charts. their homes were off the charts. >> yes! >> and they had a lot of kids, too, between them, and with brad

them in the papers, almost every day. they had their brood and were in -- they weren't in different towns. in different countries. sometime as whole world apart. >> yes, yeah. >> so everything was heightened, and we sort of live vicariously. think about it. watched them in the news four days, in six countries, whatever. you're still sitting there in your same housecoat and have barely gone to the market. >> yeah. and look at their lives. >> look at their lives. seems impossibly disproportionate to yours. does that make any sense? >> yes. >> look at that chateau in france. every time i see that picture, it just looks like heaven. >> it does. it's need to see a couple like them, so purposeful. the other thing. they were always -- it's like always doing good. they went to u.n. things. you saw -- >> homes in new orleans. >> you saw them on red carpets but always saw them in other places and whenever they were on

use that to promote the thing that they were doing that was, you know, doing good, somewhere else in the world. >> yeah. we just saw a scene of them arriving for the oscars and i was there with al. >> with al. >> and very smart. because they show up like right as the doors are closing. >> they do? >> and brad was very sweet. holding on to angelina. please, come say hello, and he goes, closing the doors. sorry. so you didn't feel like -- >> sweet. they weren't dissing. >> i'm sad about it, because i hate when any marriage breaks up and hate to see a family -- so, you know what? i've seen healing in relationships you thought had no chance. if both people want it to heal it can. i know that. >> yeah, yeah. well, adele was performing. happened to be in new york city last night and she dedicated her concert to them. tmz had video from last night, and she said she didn't know them, but the news did make her sad. take a look. >> and private.
