Angelina Jolie says she has not had sex with Brad Pitt

"My own father cheated on my mother, it is not something I could forgive. I could not, could not, look at myself in the morning if I did that," Jolie has said.
 
Movie sex symbol Angelina Jolie has poured cold water on the rumours of a romance with leading man Brad Pitt, telling Marie Claire magazine in an upcoming issue that the two are not intimate. "Absolutely not," the star of the upcoming action flick "Mr. & Mrs. Smith," in which Pitt co-stars, has told Marie Claire when asked if she has had sex with Pitt.

"To be intimate with a married man, when my own father cheated on my mother, is not something I could forgive. I could not, could not, look at myself in the morning if I did that," Jolie has said.

For months, speculation has swirled around the world that Pitt, 41, the star of movies like "Ocean's Twelve" and "Troy," and Jolie, 30, are having a romantic affair since filming "Mr. & Mrs. Smith" last year. The talk seemed to have some weight when Pitt and his wife, actress Jennifer Aniston, separated in January after more than four years of marriage.

The rumours were revived in March when Aniston filed for divorce citing irreconcilable differences, and then in April when tabloids ran photos of Jolie and Pitt together on a beach in Africa with Jolie's 4-year-old son, Maddox.

But in the interview, Jolie has said that Maddox may be the one with the final word on whom she may become involved with next. Jolie adopted Maddox from a Cambodian orphanage. "I am not dating anybody. I think the next man I get involved with would have to become Mad's father, and that's a high bar as far as I'm concerned. I'm not anticipating that coming any time soon," she has said.

Jolie does say, however, that she has a string of lovers she calls "maintenance men" with whom she has "intimate friendships."

Jolie, who won an Oscar for portraying a psychiatric patient in "Girl, Interrupted," has divorced twice. She was most recently married to actor Billy Bob Thornton, whom she divorced in 2003. Jolie is estranged from her father Oscar-winning actor Jon Voight, although she has told the magazine, "I don't think he's a bad person."
