Angelina Jolie

Angelia Jolie, born on June 4, 1975, in Los Angeles, California is an American actress. She is a daughter of her actor parents Jon Voight and Marcheline Bertrand. After her parents’ separation in 1976, she was raised by her mom, who inspired her interest in acting. She has reportedly been teased by her classmates in Beverly Hills High School, for wearing glasses and braces, as well as her modest upbringing, compared to the more affluent families. Angelina felt isolation I that environment and later admitted that she was cutting herself as it was “somehow therapeutic to” her. In her early career she pursued modeling and also appeared in music videos by Antonello Vendetti (“Alta Marea”), Lenny Kravitz (“Stand by my Woman”), and The Lemonheads (“It’s About Time”). Over the next few years, she starred in low-to-mid budget movies, like “Cyborg 2”, “Hackers”, comedy “Love Is All There Is”, “Playing God”, as well as appeared in a Rolling Stones’ video “Anybody Seen My Baby?” Even though her early movies failed to become blockbusters, Angelina’s acting was positively regarded and even compared to her father Jon’s. Angelina was highly praised for her work in numerous motion picture films, such as “George Wallace” (lead female role), “Hell’s Kitchen”, “Playing by Heart”, “Pushing Tin”, “The Bone Collector”, “Girl, Interrupted”, as well as HBO’s TV series “Gia”. Because of an intellectual nature of these films, they failed to become blockbusters. Surprisingly, or maybe not, her international success came with her less than demanding roles from an acting point of view in movies, such as “Gone in 60 Seconds” and “Tomb Raider”. Shallow nature of these films, revolved around entertainment value alone, allowed them to cater to a wider audience, propelling her to Hollywood’s A-List and making her an instant household name throughout the globe. She currently enjoys being one of the highest paid actresses in Hollywood. Besides her acting career, Angelina, together with her famous husband Brad Pitt, have been instrumental in raising awareness of the world poverty and hunger, as well as a problem of refugees, displaced as a result of armed conflicts. As a part of her work, she has traveled through the poorest areas of Africa, South-East Asia, South America, and even Europe. She’s currently a Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations Refugee Agency. Angelina has adopted 3 children from African poor families, named Maddox, Pax, and Zahara.

Photos: Angelina Jolie in Wanted

In what is likely to be her last shoot-em-up action movie (which makes sense given her status as world-mother and UN peace ambassador and what-not), Angelina Jolie gives us that classic Hackers-era Crazie Angie look one more time, full of tattoos and attitude. New stills have been released from her upcoming blast called Wanted, an adaptation of a graphic novel about a world run by supervillains. Odd note: in the book, her character is drawn to somewhat resemble Halle Berry, complete with little Catwoman ears.

So enjoy some stills of Angelina being a badass.

And don't forget her co-star, newly-minted hearththrob James McAvoy.

Angelina Jolie reveals how she fell in love with Brad Pitt

"Acting is not pretending or lying. It’s finding a side of yourself that’s the character and ignoring your other sides. And there’s a side of me that wonders what’s wrong with being completely honest."
-Angelina Jolie

Jolie said she was committed to life as a single mom when she was paired with Pitt in the espionage action flick.

"Brad was a huge surprise to me," she said. "I, like most people, had a very distant impression of him from ... the media.

"I think we were the last two people who were looking for a relationship. I certainly wasn't," she said. "I was quite content to be a single mom."

The "Tomb Raider" babe admitted she was thrilled working with Pitt every day while shooting "Smith" in 2003 and 2004.

"Because of the film, we ended up being brought together to do all these crazy things, and I think we found this strange friendship and partnership that kind of just suddenly happened. I think a few months in I realized, 'God, I can't wait to get to work,' " she said.

"Whether it was shooting a scene or arguing about a scene or gun practice or dance class or doing stunts — anything we had to do with each other, we just found a lot of joy in it together and a lot of real teamwork. We just became kind of a pair."

While Jolie adamantly insisted she and Pitt were not seeking to pair up, the pouty-lipped bombshell confessed they were tempted to make more of what they had.

"And it took until, really, the end of the shoot for us, I think, to realize that it might mean something more than we'd earlier allowed ourselves to believe," Jolie said. "And both knowing that the reality of that was a big thing, something that was going to take a lot of serious consideration."

Jolie said she and Pitt remained "very, very good friends" after shooting "Smith." They were resigned to staying nothing more than pals, Jolie said, until Pitt and Aniston announced their breakup in early 2005.

Pitt and Aniston filed for divorce that spring, amid rampant reports that the Hollywood hunk had his eye on Jolie the whole time.

Vogue didn't directly press Jolie on whether she and Pitt fooled around behind Aniston's back. But Jolie said she realized, early on, that she shared a deep, emotional bond with Pitt before they formally hooked up post-Aniston.

"Not as exciting as what a lot of people would like to believe," Jolie said. "We spent a lot of time contemplating and thinking and talking about what we both wanted in life and realized that we wanted very, very similar things."

"And then we just continued to take time. We remained very, very good friends — with this realization - for a long time," she added.

"And then life developed in a way where we could be together, where it felt like something we would do, we should do."

Jolie said she has only briefly met Aniston and would gladly sit down with her — but only of the "Friends" star asked to do so.

"I did [once meet Aniston], but it was not a proper meeting. We've, like, passed each other and said 'hi' briefly, shook hands. But not a real sit-down-and-talk kind of meeting," Jolie said.

"That would be her decision [for a long sit-down], and I would welcome it."

Jolie said she doesn't plan to marry Pitt, but they're committed to raising their boy and two girls.

She gave birth to their daughter, Shiloh, earlier this year, after adopting Maddox from Cambodia in 2002 and taking in Zahara from Ethiopia in 2005.

"We both have been married before, so it's not marriage that's necessarily kept some people together.

"We are legally bound to our children, not to each other, and I think that's the most important thing," she said.

Jolie said she hasn't spoken to her dad, actor Jon Voight, for five years.

Jolie said it was her children — basically Maddox — who ultimately cemented her relationship with Pitt as a family.

One day, Maddox "just out of the blue called him Dad," she said. "It was amazing. We were playing with cars on the floor of a hotel room, and we both heard it and didn't say anything and just looked at each other.

"So that was probably the most defining moment, when he decided that we would all be a family," she said.

Jolie said that in addition to Pitt being a great dad, he has a "wicked sense of humor" and, "He's a great challenge to me."

"We're constantly in competition with each other," she said. "He's somebody I admire based on the way he lives his life."
