Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt to spend Christmas in New Orleans

If home is where your heart is, it is in New Orleans for Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt, the world's most closely followed couple. The couple has admitted as much earlier and has now reiterated the fact by announcing that they will spend Christmas with their children there.

Their work in films and for charities takes them all over the world so it is difficult to associate Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt with one place.

During the year the family camped for protracted periods in New Orleans, Prague, New York and California. Their school going children - Maddox, 6, Pax, 4, and Zahara, nearly three, have attended schools in Prague, New York and California.

Jolie, 32, announced the family's intent to spend Christmas in New York while speaking to Us magazine Monday, December 3, at a press conference addressed by Brad Pitt.

"I'm working on a film, but we'll be back for Christmas time," she said. "We'll be here through Christmas."

Jolie is currently working on The Changeling, directed by Clint Eastwood in Los Angeles. She headlines a cast that also includes John Malkovich.

Interestingly, the couple had spent last Christmas with Colombian refugees in Costa Rica.

New Orleans is special for the couple because Pitt has donated $5 million to the "Make it Right" project which will build 150 affordable and environmentally friendly homes for victims of Hurricane Katrina.

Brad was scheduled to start filming for State of Play but opted out of the film recently on account of creative differences over the script. He has been replaced by Australian actor Russell Crowe
