(Cover) - EN Showbiz - Brad Pitt loves that Angelina Jolie is so "level-headed."

The Hollywood pair started a relationship in 2005 after meeting on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith. They raise six children together; Maddox, ten, Pax, seven, Zahara, six, Shiloh, five, and three-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.

Brad is in awe of Angelina's parenting skills.

"She's level-headed and bright, and incredibly decent all great character traits. And she's an amazing mom to all of the kids," he told the UK edition of OK! magazine.

Brad went on to reveal he is happy with his age. The American actor is now 47 and insists he didn't hit a mid-life crisis when he turned 40.

"I enjoy being where I am now," he said. "No more excuses, you know? I'm responsible. I can't blame anything on my parents. I'm responsible for my mistakes and my choices.

"I'm a big believer that your mistakes define you as much as anything, it's where you get real understanding of yourself. And intimacy. I believe you've really got to make your life. And so much of it is perception. This is the form I built for myself, so I have to accept it and work within these confines. And it's up to me." (C) Cover Media
