Angelina: Master Media Manipulator - And We LOVE It!
Filed under: Brad Pitt > Angelina Jolie
She ain't no dumb bitch!
It's really no surprise to learn that Angelina Jolie carefully crafts her image through photo and journalistic deals with magazines.
And while other celebrities may employ a team of publicists to handle their images, Jolie works alone with her manager, Geyer Kosinski, relying on her intelligence, instinct, and luck.
Sometimes she asks Brad what he thinks, but mostly he's seen and not heard.
She knows her selling power, partly because she's the one who invented her profitable image, and so she can bargain with magazines.
Anonymous insiders of People magazine's $14 million deal with Angie concerning photos of her new twins with Brad say that in addition to the photos, the couple asked to review an "editorial plan." The magazine was required to refrain from publishing anything negative, use of the nickname "Brangelina" (They hate it), and to highlight their philanthropic work.
The resulting publication was the mag's best selling in 7 years.
Score!
Angelina, who was once known for making out with her brother, wearing blood around her neck, and confessing to pre-red carpet limo shenanigans, has now reigned in her image as a sparkling goddess of maternity and philanthropy, and it's all thanks to careful media manipulation.
The key to her image-shaping success is shifting focus during times of PR crisis, as when she became romantically involved with Jennifer Aniston's husband during production of Mr. & Mrs. Smith. In order to deflect casting as a homewrecker, Angelina flew out to Pakistan as the second coming of Jesus, bringing attention to the needs of people there, and making everyone go, "Awww!"
Her control has backfired a couple times though, as when the government of Namibia refused to grant visas to journalists without permission from Bragenlina while they were there for Shiloh's birth. That made them mad.
In another instance, journalists covering the premiere of A Mighty Heart had to sign an agreement that "the interview may only be used to promote the picture. In no event may interviewer or media outlet be entitled to run all or any portion of the interview in connection with any other story" and "the interview will not be used in a manner that is disparaging, demeaning or derogatory to Ms. Jolie."
Angie later said her lawyer was trying to "protect her."
Regardless, everything else seems to be working, cause people like her more than ever these days, while Jenn cries into her Friends DVDs.
People denies everything, of course, and that's cause Angelina's holding one of Maddox's knives to their backs.
She paid us to say that, by the way.
Just kidding!
BRANGELINA!!!

No matter what she says, no matter what she does—a homewrecker is a homewrecker, is a HOMEWRECKER!!!!!!
Anybody with half a brain can tell what a manipulative fame whore she is. She keeps having kids and adopting because she likes the positive reinforcement. She's just as crazy as she was in the making out with her brother/ vial of blood days, she just hides it better now.
I heard their house is a pigsty and she feeds her kids junk, you can't buy parenting skills I guess.
THIS IS WHY THE WORLD LOVES HER SOOOOOOO MUCH.
she has come a long way baby.
loves her.

Re: Jenfraud – oh and by the way..the passive aggresive one is YOUR DONUT BUMPER ANGELINA. always opening the can of worms..throwing out TMI about how her and brad started their AFFAIR and how they take baths together and SHIT WE DONT WANNT KNOW ABOUT because she knows SHES TAKING STABS AT JEN! if anything angelina is the insecure, crazy bitch because SHE cant seem to get over the fact that JEN HAD BRAD FIRST!!!
Good for her, she's done a great job. I'm not buying the entire thing about shifting focus, it's not easy to shift people's focus from having an affair with a married man! I do believe she truly enjoys the humanitarian work she's involved in and giving money to the under priviliged in the world and there probably is a certain amount of control and manipulation to her advantage when needed, but don't we all???
HOMEWRECKER!
I'd rather hear about her than f-ing Lauren… She don't seem that bad—
By the comments on this web site, it does not look like Ang has many friends, thus I suppose the need to manipulate the media and create a media storm is just to prove to all those that 'hate' her, that she is the most popular girl in the world —
.
I am sensing that her popularity is more outside the US, than within….
when did wife-stealing disgusting bitches become the fucking holy goddesses of america? this country needs a rude awakening. you think angelina suddenly changed? NO WAY, she doesnt give a rats ass about dying african american kids, she just dont want people to think she is a superfical cunt…
sure she does all this great stuff, but really…something is just off. it's PR…she is deceiving people and underneath it all is someone, something else altogether.
mostly, she just gets on my fucking nerves. i'm glad you're actually publishing something halfway balanced about her Perez, this is the first kudos to you I have been able to give you in quite some time.
WHORE
WHORE
WHORE
WHORE
WHORE
WHORE
WHORE…..NOTHING MORE!
of course, and all the kinky antics of her past just makes her all the more interesting now because it seems as she's "grown" from her past and evolved under the camera making her look strong and capable.
Re: Jenfraud – I HOPE YOU CHOKE TO DEATH ON ROADKILL
Hate Her!
Omg! A famous person with a PR strategy??? For serious???
And look! Perez brought up Jennifer Aniston! Is she somehow connected to Angelina Jolie? I'd never have guessed. Nothing I've read about Angelina has EVER mentioned it. Maybe it's time to "get over it already," hmm?
Figures that you would be praising her for manipulating the media. She's got you all KINDS of manipulated. LOL

Re: HellenKiller –
NO WONDER someone left you. The next one will, too, with that kind of attitude.
Re: Jenfraud – UM WHO LEFT ME?
YOUR QUITE A CRAZY PIECE OF WORK…..YOU SHOULD GET TOGETHER WITH MADGERULLA OVER IN BELLEVIEW
can't wait for karma to bite her in the ass. stupid ass hag
Bradley's seen and not heard, best place for him.
Angelina thinks so highly of herself and is so self-centered that she actually believes that everyone would submit to her manipulative ways. Im sick of hearing her talk about her sex life with brad and how much she enjoys taking care of 6 young children and how she is so happy to be around them. Tell me what mom actually enjoys taking care of six young children! her nannies do all the work and she just uses the children to flaunt to the media.
sluttiena and angelina……now what do these two bitches have in common??? besides being homewrecking whores they are sad pathetic weak and manipulative…
i LOVE HER!! More power to her i say!
She wins. As if we didn't know that already. Angelina is what every woman should aspire to be, I love her!
I knew it, I've been saying it for so long. It always comes back to publicity with her. Saint my ass.
well Chelsey Handler said it best - she predicted that Pax would lay a sha-dobby on brad's forehead - as he lay sleeping - and low & behold - his upper lip shows signs of that or else Angies hole is darker than we thought
I can't wait till karma comes and knocks down this bitch! Hope she vanishes for good!
perez, and all the people who read this. why do you always bring a person down when they're doing good? why dont you just look at the good things she did regardless whatever motives behind it. do you think she has time to think what others think about her and her image? nobody is that shallow. no wonder this country is going down to hole.
Perez we care because Brangelina is a train wreck waiting to happen the more kids they adopt and the longer they stay together
