It was last week that Brad Pitt was reported to be ready to dangle "damaging tapes" against Angelina Jolie so that she would agree to give up custody of her children.

However, that has turned out to be more of a damaging report than true.

It is false because the tapes just don't exist. 

Those tapes were amazingly exotic - perhaps more revealing to Angelina Jolie than to others! They threatened to expose her "manic drug rages" and "love of kinky sex."

If Angelina would have been surprised at the tapes, that wouldn't have been surprising. 

Gossip Cop made it clear to readers that the report of the tapes was false. They were said to be "extremely damaging" while Angelina Jolie fought her custody battle. The report that he had "12 years of recorded confessionals in his possession" was completely silly.

Did he go through 12 years taping his wife's moves in the anticipation that one day he could "expose" them? They just do not make sense. Currently, the couple is fighting for the custody of the six children - Maddox, 15, Pax, 12,  Zahara, 11, Shiloh, 10, and twins Vivienne and Knox, 8 but would they ever have imagined that they would?

The tapes were supposed to be showing her fasting for days and undergoing "unhinged breakdowns." One source suggested that she was rather 'bipolar' and "like two people." One side of her threatened to harm herself every time, said the report. 

If that is true, it would require an extremely meticulous and careful recording to film Angelina every second, so that her self-destruction wouldn't be missed. Why would Pitt want to do it when his marriage to her was running well?

According to Life & Style magazine, Brad Pitt was preparing to open up all his wife's "worst secrets" in family court while he battled her.

"[Brad Pitt] has a lot of dirt on Angie that he doesn't want to use," an insider said. "But he absolutely will."

"Angelina became 'fed up' with [Brad Pitt's] consumption of weed and possibly alcohol, and mixed with what she believes is 'an anger problem'... felt it became dangerous for the children," an outlet reported. 

All that is just a lot of bunkum. Even if the truth is still not known, one falsehood is clear - Pitt will not expose any damaging tapes, even if he possesses them. And he absolutely does not.
