Brad Pitt denies kidnap plot rumors

Brad Pitt has denied recent clams that he Angelina Jolie were forced to beef up security at one of their homes after their daughter, Shiloh was targeted by kidnappers last month.

A chilling note and a photograph of the 20-month-old is said to have been left at the door of one of their houses.

"Someone got to their doorstep and left a threat against Shiloh," an insider claimed.

"Shiloh has someone protecting her 24-7, and Brad and Angie are trying to avoid taking her out of the house.

"[They] will do whatever it takes to protect the children. There have been frequent threats against their kids, but this time someone just got too close."

The Hollywood couple – who also have adopted kids Maddox, 6, Pax, 4, and Zahara, 3 - already have impressive security at their Californian home.

It includes a $240,000 state-of-the art control room, motion tracking cameras and ultra-sensitive detectors to alert security to any possible intruders.

But Brad, 43, denies claims they received a threatening note.

"This is absolutely not true and reckless and dangerous to put these ideas out into the world,"he tells Perez Hilton.
