Red Carpet Icon: Angelina Jolie






























What can I say about Angelina Jolie that haven't been said before? She is gorgeous, talented actress and she is the Goodwill Ambassador for the UN Refugee Agency. Let me get this straight; beautiful, brains and she cares about others. Is she human?

Born in Los Angeles, Jolie is the daughter of actors Jon Voight and Marcheline Bertrand. Jolie has been estranged from her father since 2002 when she legally dropped Voight as her surname. The same year her father accused her of having "serious mental problems". Oouch! She is very close to her brother James, who can forget that awkward kiss at the Oscars in 2000.

Angelina Jolie was married to actors Jonny Lee Miller and Billy Bob Thorton but of course her most famous relationship is to Brad Pitt. The two actors controversial relationship allegedly started in 2004 while filming "Mr. & Mrs Smith". Brad Pitt was still married to actress Jennifer Aniston at the time. I love Angelina but that warrants a serious beat down from I come from! Brangelina has three adopted children, Maddox, Pax, and Zahara, as well as three biographical children, Shiloh, Knox, and Vivienne.

Being one of the highest paid female actresses in Hollywood, Jolie has appeared in many of my favourite Movies. I adore her in Gia, Girl, Interrupted (which she won an Oscar), Tomb Raider, A Mighty Heart and Changeling, just to name a few.

I simply love Angelina Jolie because unlike many Hollywood stars she stays out of the limelight and she has substance. She keeps her private life just the way it's suppose to me, private! Angelina Jolie definitely is more than a stunning beauty and talented actress, She is a humanitarian and have donated millions of dollars to charities for children in poverty. Her children are adorable and her husband is scrumptious as ever. It's no way this woman can be human because she is too perfect!
