Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie have rubbished rumors that they are planning to quietly tie the knot with African music during Christmas this year.

Reports surfaced in gossip columns last week that the couple would wed in a simple and elegant ceremony in South Africa in a pre-Christmas ceremony in a village near Johannesburg.

But according to the Bosh, a representative for Pitt has denied the claims, telling American publication Us Weekly, "It's all made up."

Brangelina are currently in New York City to promote Jolie's new movie The Good Shephard.

Pitt, 42, and Jolie, 31, have one biological child - six-month-old Shiloh Nouvel, and two adopted kids, four-year-old Maddox and Zahara, one.
