Who wore it best? Not Angelina Jolie.

The mom of six dropped off Vanity Fair’s best dressed list this year.

Brad Pitt was named for the third year in a row — although in 2007 and 2008, he appeared in the “couples category” with Jolie.

President Barack Obama was named to the list for the first time. The First Lady, Michelle Obama, appears for the third time.

Penelope Cruz, Anne Hathaway, Alicia Keys, and Kelly Ripa are ranked for the first time.

The September issue of Vanity Fair hits newsstands on Aug. 11.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie take their kids through the drive through at a McDonalds in Studio City after spending the morning at Warner Brothers Studios. Brad asked the waiting photographers to be calm as they had kids in the car. He was also very courteous to the lady at the drive through window and asked for extra ketchup. Angelina was seen alongside him as they ordered.

Just because she has long dark hair, sexy red lips and a smoldering attitude doesn’t mean Megan Fox wants to be Angelina Jolie. And frankly, she’s sick of the comparison.

“I think it’s cause she has tattoos really, I think a lack of creativity on the media’s part,” Megan explains to Pop Tarts.

“I am a brunette with tattoos, I curse and I have made mention of sex before. I joked about it which people find outrageous so they want to constantly compare that to her,” she says. “You know Shia [LaBeouf] is the new Tom Hanks, Rihanna is the new Beyonce. Everybody is the new somebody although none of us are any of those people so you just walk around with it you live with it.”

And if you don’t believe Megan that the two are different, just ask Angie’s own dad, Jon Voight.

“Megan is herself and Angelina is herself. No one is comparable; everyone in the world is unique,” Jon said at the recent Transformers premiere in L.A. “That’s the great thing about it, but of course they’re two very beautiful women.”

Angelina Jolie made her third trip to Iraq on Thursday, offering support to hundreds of thousands of displaced Iraqis.

During her day-long visit, Jolie, 34, met four families displaced from the district of Abu Ghraib, located to the west of Baghdad, according to the UN Refugee Agency.

The families that Jolie met complained that their children could not go to school and they could not afford to pay for medical treatment for various ailments.

After one Iraqi complained to Jolie about his hardships, Jolie (a mother of six) told him, “It takes a lot of strength for you to survive this life. I don’t know if I would be strong enough to survive this.”

Jolie, a UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador, also cradled a newborn with a rash during her visit, according to the UN Refugee Agency.

Before she left, the actress told locals: “I want to come back and find you in a better place and in a different situation. We hope that UNHCR and the government will support you in getting a piece of land. You need help not because you are poor, but because you are the future of Iraq.”

Despite the difficult times, Jolie said, There are some changes. There are returns of displaced people, not a big number, but there is progress.”

Jolie first visited Iraq in August 2007, talking to 1,200 refugees. She returned last February.

Of her third trip, the actress said, “This is a moment where things seem to be improving on the ground, but Iraqis need a lot of support and help to rebuild their lives.”

Brad Pitt says he’d never take a photo of Angelina Jolie’s booty and post it online.

In August’s Wired, the Inglourious Basterds star, 45, is asked what he thought about Ashton Kutcher Tweeting a picture of his wife Demi Moore’s behind.

“Don’t take a picture of your wife’s butt. That’s silly,” he tells the magazine. “Take pictures of other people’s wives’ butts.”

As for online dating, Pitt warns those looking for love on the Internet.

“Everyone lies online,” he says. “In fact, readers expect you to lie. If you don’t, they’ll think you make less than you actually do. So the only way to tell the truth is to lie.”

Wired also asked if it’s acceptable to talk on the phone while using the bathroom.

“No, you can’t talk on the phone!” Pitt declares. “Do you want the guy next to you to hear your entire conversation?”

Pitt says texting on the potty is acceptable, however.

“Just be sure you don’t hit the wrong button and end up putting a photo of your junk on Twitter,” he says. “Trust me, you don’t want those followers.”

Angelina Jolie resumed one of her favorite hobbies in L.A. Thursday: flying lessons!

The actress, 34, went to Burbank without Brad Pitt (who’s been spotted riding his motorcycle around town), or kids to meet up with a flight instructor.

The duo flew to Santa Barbara, where they spent “about two hours,” a witness tells Usmagazine.com.

“She seemed like she was in a good mood,” the witness goes on.

Check out all the places where Angelina has traveled.

“When she got off the plane, she hopped off. She seemed pretty energetic,” the onlooker tells Us. “She had a spring in her step.”

Jolie got her pilot’s license in 2004. She bought a single-engine Cirrus SR22 (base price: $334,700) in 2005. Safety features include a parachute that will land the entire plane safely.

In 2008, the star even flew her plane while pregnant with twins Knox and Viv (who turn 1 this weekend).
