Angelina On…
Filed under: Brad Pitt > Angelina Jolie
Angelina Jolie gives a very revealing interview in the new issue of Entertainment Weekly.
Here are a few HIGHlights from the article!
Entertainment WeeklY: In many ways you're a very polarizing figure. People either worship you or they can't stand you. Have you thought about why that is?
Angelina Jolie: I'd like to think it's because I'm not neither here nor there in my life. I think anybody that makes a decision about where they stand is going to cause strong opinions about them. But I think that's what you should be hoping for in life, so I take that as a very good sign. That some people support me and some people really don't like me tells me that I'm making decisions and I'm standing strong for something I believe in. I'm making choices in life. And that's the right thing to do.
You and Brad aren't married. How do you refer to each other?
We have that problem all the time. I say ”partner” sometimes. ”Father of my children” is too long. But half the time people refer to us as, ”So, your wife this, your husband that.” We've stopped correcting everybody. It's not a big intentional thing not to marry. We immediately were a family when we became a couple, and children were the priority, and we're both legally committed to the children. And that seemed to be the right thing.
Some people can't reconcile your old persona, where you talked about knives and cutting, with your more recent identity as a mother and activist.
But again, it's not that different. The reason I talked about going through certain pains or even cutting myself is that I was already out the other side. I knew there were people that do that — and somehow are happy that somebody admitted they did and discussed how they got out of it. I don't see the point of doing an interview unless you're going to share the things you learn in life and the mistakes you make. So to admit that I'm extremely human and have done some dark things, I don't think makes me unusual or unusually dark. I think it actually is the right thing to do and I'd like to think it's the nice thing to do.

WONKY EYESSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSSS
At first I didn't like her. After reading Vanity Fair, I had a change of heart. If only Brad and Jolie would admit truthfully about there relationship to Aniston. May she have a healthy twins to come.
I think Fish Face needs to STFU already. I Hate it when Stupid People Speak. A.J needs to let a Publicist speak for her.
nuff said-
I really don't think people pay attention much to her — not for her being a mother, or an activist or even an actor… it is all about the negatives of her past, that people watch her
The Legendary Painted Whore Of Babylon.
Why would anyone who's trying to get ppl to accept her do a cover with the blurb "Wanted Woman"? "Dangerous and Disarming". That kinda works against what she's trying to accomplish here don't ya think?
Her lips remind me of Hemorrhoids. Or a pink sock lollipop.
yes Angelina…it is the right this to do.
the right thing to do.
the right thing to do.
the right thing to do.
the right thing to do.
You are doing the right thing, Angelina.
That picture actually looks like her and I can appreciate that, but the way she ends everything she says with it being the "right thing" is strange. Her responses seem honest though. I like her more now.
This is sooooooo not a good photo of her (I mean, it's better than it would ever be of myself) - just saying, she's MUCH more beautiful than this photo allows.
Whoever took this pic really did'nt do her any favour at all!
"I don't see the point of doing an interview unless you're going to share the things you learn in life and the mistakes you make. "
No Angelina the point of an interview is to promote a movie not your private life. The best actors are smart enough to keep the focus on the work not themselves and their weird habbits. Angelina needs to get over herself.
Re: flangie nopants – DO YOU NOT REALIZE THAT EVERYTIME YOU POST IT UNDER ALL YOUR DIFFERENT NAMES THAT IT IS OBVIOUSLY YOU BECAUSE YOU ARE ONE OF A FEW THAT HAS AN AVATAR AND YOURS IS A BEACH SCENE WITH A PALM TREE ??? DUH ??
HOOCH!
Okay so SHE'S a home-wrecker, then what is Brad Pitt? LOL I love how people have this lynch mob mentality against Angelina Jolie, it takes two to tango people… they're adults who are we to judge? They are reasonable people who can make their own decisions so who cares about the circumstances they met under? It's so funny to see people be so crude about Angelina with this sort of holier than though mentality, its such hypocrisy and weird behaviour… people, go for walks outside spend some time with your own children don't be so concerned with someone you barely know…
she is the most gorgeous women in the WORLD!!!!
she is THE BOMB!!!!!!!
HHHHHHHHHHHHHHHOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMMEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEEWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWWRRRRRRRRRRRRREEEEEEEEEEEEEECCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCCKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKKEEEEEEEEEEEEEEERRRRRRRRRRRRRRRRR
I agree Brad is just as responsible as she is however this is not her first time down this road. In fact it seems to be a very well traveled road for her. No need for a map. It's like going home for her.
Re: ? – ( she just bugs the hell out of me. as a married woman, she has no respect for anyone or anything but herself. such a classless slut.)
————————————————————————————————————————————————————————————
What???are totally stupide or what?no respect for anyone,,damn all she does is for help people ,,she a good person.she a good mother.
why you are so jealous?and rude!
to all of u calling Angelina a homewrecker, what about Brad? Women are always blamed for the dissolution of a marriage. But men who are married can also avoid cheating. Anyway, apparently Jen's and Brad's relationship had already been strained for a while. there were rumors of a brake-up like a year before! And Jen confirmed that when Brad had been filming some movie that they had had a "trial separation". and hey if Angie and Brad fell in love before he and Jen filed for divorce, then at least they waited to step out publicly together. Besides, Brad wanted children and maybe ha wanted a woman who was more like Angelina.
i love her shes so real n down to earth
Perez, yesterday you supported Paul Newman's quiet way he goes about philanthropy, not attracting publicity or expecting accolades.However, this woman constantly behaves in ways guaranteed to get her publicity just to make sure the world knows what a wonderful, compassionate, environmentally aware person she is.Everything she does is obsessive and about her needs.Who would choose to have 6 kids under 6, even with all the paid help?They get dragged all around the world while she flits from one obsession to the next.While living a lifestyle of material excess she preaches about concern for the underprivileged in the world, and environmental issues.Her latest abode in France would leave in a day a carbon footprint bigger than my house would in a year! As for not knowing what to call Mr Pitt, maybe her man-bag.His role seems to be to follow her around on her crazy missions.Does he have a mind of his own, or has he found himself in a relationship with an extremely dominating woman and a hoard of kids which would be very hard to get out of?The issues which caused Ms Jolie to cut and behave in other self-destructive ways are still with her. However, her ways of dealing with them have changed but remain just as unbalanced and compulsive.The downside is she has chosen ways to prove to herself that she is now OK that involve others who have no choice but to go along with her, being her collection of kids.Her whole persona and lifestyle reek of hypocrisy.
O.K. now I read the article. After all I have read about her, most particularly what she is quoted as having said herself—I wonder if anyone could possibly be more aggressively and shamelessly in an outright campaign to be canonized or declared a saint.
So….she's old/mature enough to wonder how history will regard her….I could puke.
Audrey Hepburn she will never be, no matter how hard she tries. And she is trying very very hard. Miss Hepburn's beauty and virtue was her quiet simplicity. She shunned the spotlight. Jolie courts it like a brazen prostitute of the meanest and most blood-thirsty kind, leaving casualties in her wake.
She makes me want to vomit all the way down to my testicles.
I love Angie and am always happy to hear about the things that she is currently involved with. I think she has come a long way and is unashamed of who she was and who she is now. I appreciate her honesty. All those that are "Team Jen"…get real. That marriage was doomed…if Angie had never come along I still believe that marriage would have failed.
I didnt think I could appreciate this woman anymore than I did before I read this…but I do… These are beliefs I already held re: her motivation etc, nice to know we're on the same page
I love her. Marriages do break up. Even Jennifer's parents had a bad marriage. So nobody is perfect! if Jen is happy now. Then let it be.
Angie and Brad have moved on and so should everyone else! This is not
your life!JMO! Hope they have wonderful twins.
I think I will be sick..Except for that last answer, her answers are evasive…Can she think?? I cannot stand the woman..I think everything she does is for publicity..Everything!! Adopt a kid here in the US next and youl have me back as a fan..Until then, you and Brad suck, and are media whores..Funny how Angelina gives a ton of interviews whenever Jennifer is in the news…Angelina is supposed to be intensely private, but it does not seem to be the case..She is a major condradictor….PEople who condradict themselves always lose my respect..I am sure she could care less, but she is a nasty piece of work..
Amen! I agree Angie, you are doing exactly what you want in life. I wish I could be so determined to make my own decisions & not look back.
those of you who talk about how horrible an actress she is have either not seen any of her movies or have only seen Tombraider. She is in fact an excellent actress, but her beauty works against her. People have a hard time believing that good-looking can act. Brad Pitt has the same problem.
Re: M – Ummm, beg your pardon, but I have to disagree with you there:
Named Most Beautiful Woman in People Magazine's 50 Most Beautiful People 2005 issue. More than 500,000 readers were polled.Named Esquire Magazine's Sexiest Woman Alive in 2004. She was voted the ninth sexiest woman in FHM UK's top 100 sexiest in 2004. Named the world's sexiest woman in Swedish magazine Café.
She's such a goddess…
Re: janeb – Um, she was answering THEIR DIRECT QUESTIONS! By the way, Denise Richards reminds me of an elf. I don't know what it is…
She's very articulated.
I love her. She is an amazing person, and one of the only celebrities that is a good role model.
Okay, I keep seeing SM Gellar staring in the mirror saying " because it's wroong". but I totally love the all over the world comments. Artists strive to ignite passion. She certainly succeeds. My respect for her grows while my fear for her children increases. She and Brad are far to busy and effective to give her kids the consistency they need. I hope they sort it out.
In a global sense, we can only thank them. They have been active on many fronts… New Orleans, come on folks, Brad's work is GENIUS, look it up! Refugees have much to opposite of hate Angi for! What they have done and given is remarkable and I defy any haters to produce a better plan of action.
I LOVE ANGELINA! ALTHOUGH SHE IS WITH MY MAN, AND IS GIVING HIM THE BABIES THAT WERE SUPPOSE TO BE COMING OUT OF ME! DAMN ANGELINA…LOL ANYWAY…DO IT BIG GIRL! HAVE A NICE BIG FAMILY! LOVE IT!
People– she is not a slut or a homewrecker. If you want to call anyone that, call BRAD that. Angie never did anything wrong in that situation. If ANYONE cheated, which is probably not even true to begin with, it was BRAD, NOT ANGIE!! DUH.
Shes phycially perfect
Flawless
Drop dead gorogus stunning
beauty.
I love jennifer Aniston to tho
Re: kam – …She doesn't get to pick or have any control over what title will go on the cover. duh. After the interview the editors come up with what they will put on the front; and whatever they think will sell the most magazines is what they will write. The only thing she really has control over is what she says in the interview with a journalist, and even then, that can be edited a lot and made to sound differently than it was intended.
This is why I like Angelina. She doesn't act holier than thou. She is extremely down to earth, candid and real. More importantly she uses her celebrity to do good in the world to those that need it most.
God bless her and her family.
Re: shutu – AGREED!!!
Re: sushi – Completely agree!
The whore is not a saint…. She is not pretty at all…. and for someone who claims to be all family…. what about her own father…. She doesn't even talk to him…. What a great example to teach her own children…. The bitch gets to much attention and unfortunetly it has gone to her peewee brain…. Angelina please move away from the USA and recluse yourself oversea's where people don't care so much about Americans…. Then maybe you will just slip away and people will eventually forget you even existed and perhaps your children will forgive you for being a me, myself and I kinda gal….. Good-bye and so long…. Have a great life and don't come back.
The Vanity fair pic was soo much better and she's beautiful, semi- talented and very far from the best movie star ever. Her oscar was a one- off thingm a feat she can never repeat. REAL movie stars can.
Re: coyotee1978 – fuck you. everything she does is for attention. fame seeking whore. she can easily adopt here in the states. why doesn't she? because it wouldnt make big headlines like in butt fuck no where countries. so before you post something stupid, look at the facts! all for show.
I'm sorry haters but this bish kicks so much ass. She's fierce ! there is no other actress like her out there. so ppooeeee to yooooooooou!
BTW, brad's tattoo on his back is a drawing she did. lmao he's an idiota!
Re: Hypo –
COMPLETELY AGREE!
You've hit the nail right on the head.
And as for the whole "I don't see the point of doing an interview unless you're going to share the things you learn in life and the mistakes you make."
That's BULLSHIT.
You're an 'actress'–if you can even be called that.
You're paid to act (or attempt to). And talk about your movies.
I don't give a damn about what you call Brad. I don't care about how you refuse to acknowledge that your cutting and blood-wearing ways were ridiculous. And I could give a flying fuck as to what you think is the 'right thing to do'.
Face it honey: You only became famous because of your unique and striking looks. Oh, and let's not forget the father that you've so quickly estranged yourself from after he gave you your start in the entertainment business.
Stupid, ungrateful whore.
she is an icon wether the haters like it or not she is the perfect women.
I'm sorry but that pic scares the crap out of me! She's usually photogenic, but clearly whoever took that pic must really hate her b/c they did a terrible job. I mean I can easily say she looks ugly, I mean REALLY ugly. YIKE!!
She actually sounds pretty intelligent and balanced in those snipets.
She and Madonna are in a contest to see who is the most pretentious skank/activist. There are other celebrites out there who can do good deeds without being media whores. It's like Angelina needs approval from others to feel special.
I love how honest she is & she's right. Celebrities shouldn't give interviews unless they're willing to be honest and give something to the audience (readers). LOVE HERRRRRR!
She's still a fake - no matter what magazines she is put in and elevated to, she is still the same woman who fooled around with a married man, and then the two of them put of a series of ridiculous interviews (e.g., Good Morning America….) where they espoused they were individually trying to 'find themselves' and 'who knows what will come next in this life' after Brad's manipulatively-crafted "divorce weekend' with Jennifer. Fakes. They just have a lot of kids, and a lot of money to pay for people to help them take of their kids. They are no more special than that… still fakes.
Geez, she looks like a space creature.
wow she is the most gorgeous woman on the planet you guys are just jealous! I wish i had lips like that…
i don't care about how many children she adopts…sure, she takes them out. But is she changing every diaper, washing every bottle, hand-scrubbing the clothing with stains of all those children? i highly doubt it. to me, she's just a HOMEWRECKER! Yes, I acknowledge Brad Pitt is just as guilty, but she could have put a stop to it the first time he "hit" on her. I'm not excusing Brad nor does it justify it, but guys flirt with anything that moves…it's the testostorone. But a classy LADY would not allow for such a thing to go on. As a "MOTHER" she should set a better example, because Maddox saw the whole thing happen, so she obviously condones this behavior. I doubt she'd want Shiloh or Zahara to go through the pain Jen did. But that's for karma to decide. Hopefully the girls don't go through heartbreak, but if they do, they should thank Angelina's karma.
wow she is gorgeous love the lips wish i had lips like that you guys are just jealous that you dont have looks like that…
Everything she says end up being self absorbed. "I did this because it was the right thing to do…."
Get over yourself. I will not pay to see your movies.
i have such a girl crush on this woman.
Julia Roberts is a way cooler movie star than Angelina, but here's the truth. All these movie stars talk about getting green, and saving the planet, and then they fly around in private jets. HYPOCRITES!
Enough already on her being a homewrecker!!, that was four years ago!!! And sometimes you can't wreck what has already been wrecked!! How would any of US know anyways?! I am not saying she was right at all.. But she is obviously trying to do the right thing now in her life, like none of us have ever F**ked up before in ours.. She sounds like a mom who loves her kids very much and partner like anyone else out there to me.
I just love her, but double negatives are just a little too tacky!
Bless her heart!
Her face had gone through so many plastic surgeries it is now distorted.
.
Only in L.A. would people consider such a plastic freak of nature, as "normal".
boring………..she's boring as hell, can we just move on without her?????? Her and brad together equals boring boring boring……brads career went down the toilet once she stepped in, enough of her…all she does is collect babies and 'donate' publicity, I mean money to charities, the money she 'donates' is a small price to pay for all the publicity this women gets.
Hi Perez- Why do you love this woman, who has broken up multiple marriages in Hollywood? How is she different than other women that you call home wreckers?
LOVES HER!!!!!!
found new anti ebay site! —www.geeewhiz.com
this broad is so lame. shes psycho. she made out with her bro. shes adopting all kinds of kids and ruining brads life. he had it so simple with jen i bet he regrets it all the time.
God bless Angie, Brad, their children, family and friends!!
No matter how much she tries to act like Mother Teresa, we know the real Angelina Skankbag Holie.
She'll ALWAYS be seen as little miss homewrecker, little miss married man chaser. She claims she would never have broken up a "family", and I know she didn't see Jen and Brad as a family. Isn't it ODD HOWEVER that she claims she and Brad were a FAMILY immediately! What an old lying wh0re.
All I can say Angie Baby is if he cheats with you, he'll cheat on you baby. Make sure you never take your eyes off the slimy s. o. b. Angie. Your turns up next.
Loves Angelina. so many jealous hatersout there get a hobby! Brad was over Jen before Angelina and he had god given chemistry. Get over it already! Now if Angelina had happened to be in Friends, maybe I would of watched it.
I don't mind her she is inhumanly good looking but shes had help. " its the right thing" has she been brainwashed by Tom Cruise?! Anyway in retort to the coment left earlier that Brad is hung like a tad pole this is BS. I saw naked pics when he was with Gwenyth and he was hung like a horse!
What a crazy dumb bitch… I'm not neither here nor there in my life….. wtf is that suppose to mean? She has absolutely NO BRAINS!! Let me break it down for you Miss Jolie……..people don't dislike you because you take a stand on anything, people DON"T LIKE YOU because you had an affair with a married man, and you chase after men who are taken. Get it? I know you don't have much brain power but try, really try to understand that, that's the right thing to do, the right thing to do, the right thing to do, the right thing to do
I LOVE THIS WOMAN…
SHE LOOKS WEIRD IN THAT PIC!!! I mean she is beautiful yeah i know blah blah blah blah…but that's a weeeeeeeeeird angle
SKANK SKANK SKANK SKANK SKANK SKANK SKANK SKANK SKANK SKANK SKANK SKANK SKANK SKANK SKANK NUFF SAID.
Not long ago, Angelina made a pact with the devil. She jumped from a D weird celebrity to one of the most famous actres in the world. Money, power, Brad Pitt, mother, "humanitarian", UN Ambassador, cover in every magazine….A dream come true.
And she will paid…with her soul! She is a witch, an ugly devil. Can you see it? It's just there in front of you!
I think her faced is fucked, I see way hotter girls all the time.
Ummm … yeah, it's really "sweet" and "cute" that her son is the inspiration behind her machine gun "charm" necklace!? As much as she tries to convince the public and herself (it's the right thing to do) that she is righteous in her actions and attitude, she is really out of touch with her hypocricy in regards to her stance with her children and their exposure and seeming desensitization to guns and gratuitous violence. Many of the refugees that she represents are victims of nonsensical violence and displaced because of hatred and violence towards humanity. She and her spineless follower Pitt don't seem to get it (I am sure if she articulated a stance against weaponry in the household, little man Pitt would have blurted his "non-violence, no guns" epiphany to the media - maybe he would have stated that they were not going to get married until the US passed anti assault weapon legislation). They are insightful do-gooders, yet they cancel out many of their good deeds with their selfish and irresponsible behavior (ie. Mr. Enviro Pitt rips up vulnerable habitat wth his ATV). As much as I want to respect and appreciate their efforts, ultimately they come across as self indulgent rather than self sacrificing. It seems like they only know how to play the "role" of activists.
I am impressed with her candid answers…I totally agree with her!
Well done,angie baby….a celebrity sharing her true life,,now that is a refreshing Reality show for real!! good job,angie!! good bad and ugly
I like her honesty. She doesn't mess with words. She sort of says this is me, like it or lump it. she does not create a fake persona. That's why I like her.
those lips are meant to pleasure me -not- brad >=[
RE: Brooke #32
AMEN TO THAT!!!!!
Re: ho –
women dont STEAL husbands if they were HUSBANDS they wouldnt be with another woman . 2 each his or own free will remember that .
like she's the only woman to give birth to twins. she's not muther fuckin teresa!
TO THE IDIOT: CANAD 112.
I haven't organised an avatar for myself, not that vain: it came up when I posted. If you had signed up with Perez you'd realise that. Once you have signed up and are logged on you cannot post under another pseudonym. Besides that: I am quite happy to post my opinions without having to hide behind several aliases.
Regarding the other poster who remarked about my original post (sorry, forgot your name it was so inconsequential) Angelina Jolie has spent her whole career shacking up with her co-stars: Jonny Lee Miller (who she married), Jenny Shimizu (lesbian co-star on Foxfire), Billy Bob Thornton (was going out with Laura Dern at the time) who she eventually married, Brad Pitt (married to Jennifer Aniston) who she very quickly got together with. I am sorry, but my opinion of Angelina Jolie being a bit of a homewrecker will never change, and I doubt, neither will she. I just hope what goes around comes around…
Yeah, with this and the VF interview, it's really clear she's working her ass off trying to change her image so her movies quit flopping (ex: A Mighty Heart - only $9 mill total gross).
.
Some celebrities and actors are honest. Ms. Joike is not one of them. Don't believe the hype!!!
She seems really cool…still a homewrecker…but cool. lol
Re: flangie nopants[/re] I agree. She is very selective in sharing her mistakes.
weee…. I saw those naked pics of Pitt…. you call that hung like a horse???????? oh my… you poor thing……….
lovvvvvvvvvvvveeeeeeeeeee heeeeeeerrrrrr
Re: Hypo – WORD!! You've nailed her and her pretensions & obsessiveness perfectly. I also love what "Marcus Aurelius" has to say. Awesome, point blank truth!!
How is it that they own several homes around the world, they fly in their private jet all over the world, they have an entire entourage of people tagging along with them: nannies, cooks, housekeepers, chefs, chauffeurs, even doctors, and yet they claim they are crusaders for the environment and the displaced and disadvantaged……please.
It's all an act………. it's all…. look at us, look at us!!!!
Sorry but actions speaks louder than words, and visiting a few refugees and throwing a bag of rice on a truck doesn't mean you're "humanitarians."
Ok, she said the stuff she did is what she believed in, what she thinks is the 'right thing to do'. She probably thought sleeping with Brad while he's still married is the right thing to do. What a pile of crap. Stop trying to pretend you're so 'good' when you're just a slutty hypocrite, angelina. You should stop opening those legs of yours, skank.
She's very pretty, but that face was crafted by a surgeon. She used to have a pug, fatty nose. Look at her old pictures… the surgery changed her whole face. I think also a little cheekbone work, could be wrong, but definitely the nose. Something about the eyes too… an eye lift maybe. He did great work!
BOOOOYAAAAH hating bitches! She is awesome and she killed that interview. It was the right thing to do! LMAO EAT IT HATERS!
Damnit, I like her now. She's straight up and smart. She isn't trying to hide her past and reinvent herself. I think that's a pretty good message to be sending.
LOVE ANGELINA, she is so real and speaks her mind. for all of you hating her is just some jealous bitches and bastards. at least she is making good of her life. what about u i gues u guys are perfect> she is what resal people do, stop hainting her for being who she is. take a look in the mirror 'arseholes' before u comment. ANGIE U ROCK!!!!
Oh yeah, and I agree with Teddy. Her nose was way pudgier back in the day. It is a well-crafted face that she has now though.
