I know I?m a broken record on this, but I love Zahara Jolie-Pitt?s style. I love how she puts together her ensembles. I love that she?s not afraid of color, that she favors pinks and purples and teals, that she loves a good animal print or, failing that, something with an actual animal on it. I love that she cares about her footwear. And I?m into the fact that she digs sparkly Hello Kitty stuff.
Anyway, these are new photos of Angelina Jolie, Zahara and Maddox at LAX on Saturday. They flew in from London. Angelina must have left them in London while she and William Hague flew to Sarajevo for their awareness-raising campaign to end warzone rape and sexual violence. Incidentally, we have some new photos of Angelina and Hague in Bosnia too, which I?ll cover in a separate post tomorrow. Those photos are pretty dark ? Angelina is crying in several of them, because she had been meeting with rape survivors. So, let?s hold off on them for another day, OK?
Right now I just want to look at these cute photos. Seriously, why can?t Zahara dress her mom? Angelina is basically wearing an oversized poncho, proving yet again that her style always defaults to ?SACK.? You know what amuses me though? Look at the way Maddox is dressed ? that?s how Angelina used to dress when she was in her early 20s. Maddox is the one who got his mom?s style (and Shiloh got Brad’s style). Maybe Maddox?ll grow into a love of sacks as well. Last thing: good God, Maddox has gotten tall!

Angelina Jolie is on the move! Again. Angelina flew to London Wednesday, then she flew to Sarajevo with British Foreign Secretary William Hague on Thursday. Hague and Jolie are BFFs at this point ? he seems to be a full-on Angeloonie and she?s always flying out to support their shared interests. They?ve traveled to Africa together, and he invited her to speak at the G8 summit last year too. Hague has cited Angelina?s film In the Land of Blood and Honey as a catalyst for his awareness campaign to end warzone rape and sexual assault.
Apparently, Hague invited Angelina to a ?drinks reception? at the foreign office in London Wednesday evening, followed by dinner (romantic!), followed by breakfast at 10 Downing Street (with Prime Minister David Cameron?!?). Apparently, Hague arranged for a six-motorbike police escort to Downing Street and they even closed off the street for her, which they usually only do for, like, the Queen and an American president. Wow, William Hague knows how to impress a lady, doesn?t he? I?m only half joking, probably because I know the headlines are coming: ?Angelina in intimate tte--tte with British diplomat, Brad Pitt cries.? After the breakfast with the prime minister (rowr), Hague and Angelina flew to Sarajevo together. Damn. I bet it was a government plane too. Do you think they sat side-by-side? Or did they sit across from each other so he could stare into her hypnotic eyes as he poured her a glass of champagne?
Once they arrived in Sarajevo, a champagne-buzzed (joking) Angelina and William met survivors of sexual violence and some NGO workers trying to help those survivors seek justice. The point of this whole multi-day excursion was to bring awareness to the ?huge backlog of sexual violence cases? in Sarajevo (and, I would imagine, at the International Criminal Court).
Hague and Jolie will reunite once more in June when she co-chairs a summit in London focusing on ending warzone rape. Hague will try to make his move once again. Brad who?
PS… here’s the interview/docu-piece Angelina did with CNN focusing on Syrian refugees.

Here are some photos of Angelina Jolie looking angelic in Las Vegas. Who ? besides Angelina ? is capable of looking this angelic in the city of sin? Also: this is the most sack-dressy trouser suit I?ve ever seen on anyone younger than 70. Seriously, this looks like a costume from the Golden Girls (which makes me love her even more).
Angelina was in Vegas to do some early pushing for Unbroken ? she gave a speech at CinemaCon for ?The State of the Industry: Past, Present and Future and Universal Studios Presentation.? I don?t know if she screened any footage from the film or not, but? it?s still very early. Unbroken won?t be released until December. There?s plenty of time, and I doubt Angelina is even halfway through editing the film anyway.
Angelina did talk about her boyfriend Louis Zamperini during the speech, and how his story inspired her: ?I wanted to make this film because in the end its message is one that we all need now more than ever. It?s the journey of man finding his way through the darkness and into the light.? Lord? is there anyone better at the Art of the Hustle? Angelina makes it seem so effortless. She doesn?t have any angst about promoting her work ? she only works on projects she believes in, and when she?s on the promotional trail, there is no one better.
Also: here’s a new Japanese trailer for Maleficent. There are some new little clips from the film that we haven’t seen before!
And here are some photos of Angelina, Maddox and Zahara arriving at LAX last night. Did Angelina fly to and from Vegas? With Z and Madd? Huh. Also: WHY can’t Zahara influence her mom’s style? Because Z’s style is so badass.

Yay, a new Angelina Jolie interview! CB sent this to me ? apparently, Angelina gave another new, exclusive interview, this time to Hello Magazine. These quotes sound new to me, although Angelina did talk about some of the same old things in a few places. But the stuff about Brad sounds particularly interesting. Hello got all up in her relationship with Brad and to her credit, Angelina answered all of those questions and then some. Some highlights from the interview:
She can?t do it without Brad: ?He?s always encouraging me and willing to assume a lot of parental responsibilities. When I had the twins, it was very exhausting but Brad just stepped right in and made sure that the other children were getting their breakfast and going off to school on time. He loves being a father. That?s one thing I?m most proud of about him.?
Brad with the boys: ?With a large family, you need that support. But it?s much more than that. Brad?s such a wonderful teacher and guide for the boys. He?s always had this special bond with Mad, which has really been important to Mad. He has grown up fast and started to show how much he has learned about the world.?
Comparing her personality to Brad?s: ?Brad likes to plan things and proceed in a very deliberate and methodical way. That?s why he has been successful as a producer. He learns as much as he can about a project and what needs to be done and then he makes sure things run as smoothly as possible. He likes to be able to get things done properly. He?s much cooler and calmer, whereas I can be more impulsive and outspoken. But these different qualities bring us closer together and it?s beautiful to find a partner who balances you like that. It?s very reassuring to know there?s this very solid, generous man in your life.?
Balancing alone time with mom time: ?You get used to having this huge commotion around you. I?d always been the kind of person who enjoyed being alone but once our family grew larger I discovered that I?m truly happy surrounded by the children. I let them come in when I?m taking a bath of lying down on the sofa or the bed. Sure, you might enjoy moments by yourself but then you feel so much joy when your children jump around and want you to play with them or to see what they?ve drawn or listen to something they want to tell you. It has been surprising to me how much I love all those moments.
Alone-time with Brad: ?You learn to reserve certain nights either to go out or just be together without the kids. All couples need to make time for that and even though it can be tough with six kids ? especially after I had the twins ? things have settled into a more natural rhythm.?
[From Hello Magazine, print edition, March 24, 2014]
?He loves being a father. That?s one thing I?m most proud of about him.? That?s awkwardly worded, but I get her point. She?s happy and proud that she ended up with such a stand-up guy and a family man who enjoys being a dad. Although I?m hesitant to give Brad a gold star for, you know, just being a hands on dad who feeds his children and makes sure the nannies take them to school. I get that Angelina is trying to praise him and acknowledge the support he?s given to her emotionally, but it also feels like? oh, how special, Brad loves his children. Breaking news!
Angelina also lied a little bit when she was asked point-blank about how, last fall, Brad was in England working on Fury while she was working on Unbroken in Australia. Angelina did her same line, the one she always uses: ?Brad and I never work at the same time and always take many months off when we?re at home with the kids.? I mean, it?s not the end of the world or anything that they were both working on separate continents for several months, but I would have expected her to acknowledge it rather than just give the same old talking point.

To do some early promotion on Maleficent, Angelina Jolie gave a lengthy interview to Entertainment Weekly a few weeks ago, but she also gave a short little interview to USA Today specifically to promote the new teaser in which we get to see Maleficent?s magnificent wings. To film the stuff where Angelina is flying around, Angelina was obviously rigged up on wires (controversial theory: maybe she can fly in real life?!). To do all of the wire work, Angelina had to get stronger. Which is why we get this wonderful confession:
?Angelina Jolie reveals what it was like to fly with her wings in in the classic tale’s reboot ? and the workout she begrudgingly agreed to. Hooked up on rigs in full costume (yes, even those horns) on set at Pinewood Studios, “you’re almost like a puppet with all these people moving (beneath you),” says Jolie. “When you go to the left or the right all of you have to move together. It’s a big dance with a lot of people.”
How did she pull it off? Well, through a regimen Jolie admits she eschews. Jolie’s longtime stunt coordinator Eunice Huthart (a close friend, who is also godmother to Shiloh Jolie-Pitt) slowed down and intensified her workouts. “She made me do yoga. And I have no patience for yoga,” says Jolie. “It’s not something I do easily, because I’m not a still person. But I was forced to do yoga because (to fly) you have to have your core strength to be able to hold yourself.”
[From USA Today]
I feel like Angelina is aware enough to know that Jennifer Aniston is all about yoga and that Aniston talks about her love of yoga in pretty much every interview. Do you think that entered into Angelina?s thought process at all here? ?I have no patience for yoga.? I can see that. I bet Angelina would prefer to box, lift weights and maybe do some martial arts. That seems more her style.
Here are some new teasers/trailers from Maleficent. The first is a teaser about Maleficent?s stolen wings! THE WINGS ARE BADASS.
Here?s the ?Legacy Trailer? ? they mash up the cartoon with the live-action stuff. This makes it seem like they?re trying really hard to get little kids to go see this film? so they can scare the sh-t out of those children.

Entertainment Weekly published the full Angelina Jolie cover story/Q&A online a few days ago, and I would recommend it to every Brangeloonie who loves to obsess over every little Jolie detail. It?s actually a really nice Q&A and you can tell that the interviewer (Anthony Breznican) was fan-girling like crazy over Angelina (who wouldn?t?). Angelina and Anthony actually do a fist-bump at one point. Fist-bump and an explosion. Angelina fist-bumps. This is news to me! You can read the full Q&A here (it?s lengthy), and here are some more highlights:
Malficent?s darkness: ?She has a darkness. And how do you make a film about someone who curses a baby and make them relatable? It?s like the worst thing you could possibly do! But I think the script that Linda [Woolverton (The Lion King)] wrote, has quite a deep understanding. The exercise wasn?t how can we have fun with a villain? It was: what turns people evil and vile and aggressive and cruel. What could have possibly happened to her that would get her to that moment in the christening? She wasn?t invited, so she?s pissed off??
Malficent?s elegance: ?Maleficent was always so elegant. She always was in control. And to play her was difficult. I worked on my voice a lot. She?s bigger than me. She?s on a different level of performance that I have never done. She?s very still. She?s very sure of herself, but I couldn?t figure out her voice, I kept playing with these different types of British voices, making my voice darker and scarier. I was giving my kids a bath, and I started making up other stories about Maleficent ? and they weren?t really paying attention to me, as children often do. You can bore them to death, until I started to mess around with this playful [sing-songy] voice.
On Elle Fanning (she plays Aurora): ?I think she is magic. You can?t take your eyes off her on screen. I?d like to think that I?m a calm and sweet person. I tend to be very playful at home with my children, but in life ? we have to fight our battles. Our work battles, our political battles, our personal battles, and we?re focused. So I tend to be someone who can be very private and in my space, not in any way trying to be rude, that?s just how I walk my way though life. When I?m outside my home, I can be somewhat serious. Elle, the first time we met each other, she ran across the hallway and hugged me and jumped on me and we joked later like it was like being attacked by a thousand cute gorgeous bunnies. I was just frozen. I never had someone see me like that. When she sees me, I?m like a mom, a friend, a girl, and she just wants to be another girl. She?s just full of love and happiness and cuteness and belief and sweetness and when I was her age, I was the complete polar opposite ? quite dark at that age. So, it?s kind of a perfect match. It?s a part of the film that?s interesting, the struggle to deal with this light and love that she is, because Aurora is so strong in her light that it?s a difficult thing to fight. I adore her.?
The awkward horns: ?It was pretty funny, because I kept on hitting my horns on things, the framing was very strange. They were actually kind of heavy. There had to be [lighter weight] ones that you could ride horses in because if you fall with something [heavy] attached to your head, that?s it ? it could break your neck. There were softer horns for the fights. The harder ones were magnetic so I could actually clip them off and walk around, but then I looked like a little bear. It did not look half as cool. When they weren?t the magnetic ones, I did almost knock myself out quite a few times. It?s not just that you?re a foot taller on top, you?re also in five-inch heels so you are really big. I was out of whack for a bit. Definitely, it took me a while to become graceful with her.?
What Brad thought of Maleficent: ?I don?t know! You know, I never asked him. He thinks she?s cool. I loved being Maleficent. I was quite sad to put my staff down and put my horns away because somehow, she just lives in a different world. But I did have to take my staff home to practice walking with it in my cloak, and then I would go outside and scream at the bushes to expand my voice and play with my voice. So, mom was a bit nutso for a period.?
She?s due to have one more surgery: ?There?s still another surgery to have, which I haven?t yet. [Jolie is also genetically at risk for ovarian cancer, which is what took her mother?s life at age 56] I?ll, you know, I?ll get advice from all these wonderful people who I?ve been talking to, to get through that next stage.?
[From Entertainment Weekly]
Angelina was also asked about her haters and Hater Culture in general, and she gave a lengthy and interesting answer. She basically said that she doesn?t pay attention to any of it (I don?t believe that) but that if you mean well and your ?choices come from an honest place,? everything will be fine in the end. Then she says that there?s real hate and inhumanity in the world that she sees all the time and she basically doesn?t have time for all of this high school BS.
Does anyone else love the idea of Angelina bringing Maleficent?s staff home so she could practice walking with it while doing that crazy voice? Also: Elle Fanning is now a Jolie-Pitt, basically. Angelina approves! Elle ?jumped on me and we joked later like it was like being attacked by a thousand cute gorgeous bunnies.? That?s so funny.

WOW. This is the best poster Disney has released so far for Maleficent. I understand that Disney didn?t want to Release the Full-Jolie until they got closer to a release date for the film, but I?ve been disappointed with the lack of promotional images and such from the film. Hopefully, more stuff will be coming out soon. Because Maleficent finally has a hard release date ? I thought it wasn?t going to come out until June or July, but the release date is now May 30th. Awesome!
LaineyGossip points out that with a late May release date, there?s a real possibility that Angelina Jolie could end up doing a huge Cannes premiere. Jolie has promoted big-market, non-competition films in Cannes before, most recently when she was promoting Kung Fu Panda 2. So? I really hope this happens. I really hope we get some Angelina in Cannes. I miss her at Cannes. The fashion isn?t always the best, but Angelina is always so ridiculously beautiful in Cannes.
Anyway, this poster doesn?t tell us anything new, but it is an amazing image. I love Angelina bringing the HORN REALNESS. You know a woman is beautiful when she can make horns work. The cheekbone prosthetics are obviously an homage to Lady Gaga and/or Madonna, only Angelina works them better. And the red lips! Damn.
Oh, and Maleficent has a Twitter now. The Twitter launched its first tweet with this poster and the comment, ?Well, well.?

YES. I?m ready for the Jolie Renaissance. I?m ready for 2014 to be The Year of Jolie. Angelina Jolie has been away for too long ? she hasn?t been in front of the camera since 2010?s The Tourist. She hasn?t promoted a project since In the Land of Blood and Honey in 2011. And this year, we?ll be getting two giant projects from Angelina. First, we get Maleficent (this summer) then we get Unbroken (Christmas). As I keep saying, it?s a good time to be a Brangeloonie.
So, Angelina ? in character as Maleficent ? covers the new issue of Entertainment Weekly. YES. Horn Realness, baby. Here?s a preview of the cover story:
When someone says: You would be perfect to play one of the cruelest fantasy villains of all time ? is that a compliment or an insult?
In the case of Disney?s Maleficent (out May 30), the whole world pretty much agreed Angelina Jolie should play the black-horned bad-girl.
?It is really funny when people say you?d be obvious for a great villain,? she says with a laugh (not a cackle).
In this week?s issue of Entertainment Weekly, the actress gives her first in-depth interview about Disney?s revisionist take on Sleeping Beauty, which retells the classic folk tale from the wicked point-of-view.
?The exercise wasn?t how can we have fun with a villain?? Jolie says. ?It was: What turns people evil and vile and aggressive and cruel? What could have possibly happened to her??
In the wide-ranging conversation with EW?s Anthony Breznican, Jolie also discusses Unbroken, the true-life tale of World War II heroism that she directed and is currently editing, and addresses the cancer worries that led her to undergo a preventative double mastectomy last year ? penning a New York Times op-ed afterward about the experience, hoping to inspire and encourage others facing such a choice.
?Wherever I go, usually I run into women and we talk about health issues, women?s issues, breast cancer, ovarian cancer. I?ve talked to men about their daughters? and wives? health. It makes me feel closer to other people who deal with the same things and have either lost their parents or are considering surgeries or wondering about their children,? she says. ?I was very, very moved by all the support and kindness from so many people.?

?The exercise wasn?t how can we have fun with a villain? It was: What turns people evil and vile and aggressive and cruel? What could have possibly happened to her?? Crap. I?m not interested in seeing Maleficent?s motives! I just want to see her cackle and destroy people. I want to see her scare the crap out of millions of children, just like the cartoon villainess did (and still does). Why does every villain need a backstory? Why can’t some people just be deliciously awful?

During promotions for "Maleficent," Angelina Jolie garnered herself a little added exposure by covering the latest issue of Entertainment Weekly magazine.
While dressed as the evil sorceress from the well-known "Sleeping Beauty" tale, the 38-year-old actress opened up about becoming the iconic villain and shared details about her double mastectomy.
"It is really funny when people say you'd be obvious for a good villain," Angelina explained. "The exercise wasn't how can we have fun with a villain? It was: What turns people evil and vile and aggressive and cruel? What could have possibly happened to her?"
In regards to her cancer worries that led to her preventative surgery last year, Miss Jolie stated, "Wherever I go, usually I run into women and we talk about health issues, women's issues, breast cancer, ovarian cancer. I've talked to men about their daughters' and wives' health."
"It makes me feel closer to other people who deal with the same things and have either lost their parents or are considering surgeries or wondering about their children. I was very, very moved by all the support and kindness from so many people," she added.

I?ve been trying to find a good angle or a close-up for Oscar-winner Brad Pitt?s sleeve and cuff, but I can?t find one. We?ll just have to take this on faith. Life & Style reports that Brad Pitt wore a very special gift from his Oscar-winning fiance Angelina Jolie when he won his first Oscar: she had given him some cufflinks for Christmas one year, and he wore them on Oscar night. Aw.
Brad Pitt put his love on display — literally — for fiance Angelina Jolie at the Oscars Sunday night. The 50-year-old actor, whose film 12 Years a Slave took home three awards, including Best Picture, decided to wear tuxedo buttons and cufflinks from his beloved’s Style of Jolie line ? with famed jeweler Robert Procop ? to the big show.
It turns out Angie specifically made them for Brad — and even gifted them to him during the holidays.
?Brad?s specially designed cufflinks were a gift from Angelina one year for Christmas,? Procop says in a statement.
The sentimental gift consisted of tablet-cut diamonds set into yellow gold. The father-of-six also rocked a diamond dress set (buttons, cufflinks and a ring) from Procop to the 2012.
But Angie wears a design from Brad every single day. In 2013, he popped the question with a gorgeous 16-carat diamond ring, in which he designed with Procop.
To summarize: it’s very good to be Brangelina.
[From Life & Style]
As much as I teased Angelina about her Style of Jolie jewelry, some of those pieces were very pretty and I liked that she used so many semi-precious stones. She seems to love topazes. I tend to think cufflinks are kind of a silly gift for most men, because most men rarely have occasion to dress up to the point of wearing French cuffs. But most men aren?t Brad Pitt! Brad Pitt wears a tuxedo often enough to need cufflinks. And it was lovely that Brad wore Angelina?s gift as a good luck charm.
I actually wondered why Brad didn?t bring his parents again, like he did when he was nominated in the past. Maybe he didn?t want to jinx it. Or maybe his parents were like, ?Yeah, it?s okay, we?ve already been. You kids go ahead!?
