 ADDIS ABABA, Ethiopia (AP) - Actor Brad Pitt spent three days in Ethiopia meeting with orphans of the AIDS pandemic that is devastating Africa, a spokesman said Tuesday.
The star of "Troy" and "Fight Club" also visited projects offering AIDS treatment as part of a campaign to get more lifesaving drugs for victims of the HIV virus that causes AIDS.
Pitt's trip was organized by DATA, a Washington-based lobby group co-founded by rock star Bono, which campaigns to improve trade and debt terms for poor countries and raising awareness about AIDS in poor countries.
