This is going to be an epic post about Angelina Jolie and The Leg of Conspiracies And Awfulness. I just wanted to throw this March cover from Vogue Turkey out there because it?s just a striking image. It was shot by Mert & Marcus, as part of a real photo shoot for the magazine it seems. Mert & Marcus shot Angelina last year for Vanity Fair, but I don?t think these are ?extra? photos from that older shoot. Here?s a poor quality snap of the magazine pictorial:
Nice. Sort of. I?m impressed that Angelina did a photo shoot for Vogue Turkey – a magazine that isn?t on every American celebrity?s radar, you know? Angelina has been promoting In the Land of Blood and Honey in several Islamic-heavy markets lately – she even did an interview with Al-Jazeera too. Don?t worry – it?s just as boring as her interviews with Western outlets:
In other Jolie news? eh. Bill O?Reilly was yelling about Angelina?s body at the Oscars, saying on Monday, ?Is it just me or is she looking mighty slim these days? Emaciated even? I was kind of taken aback. Look at the arms on her! Once again the media largely ignoring Ms. Jolie?s physical profile, but she is a role model for some women. I mean, she is slight.? Meh.
Oh, and I guess Brad Pitt has been sent out to do some damage control on Leg-gate, because he was talking about babies with Access Hollywood, post-Oscars. He was asked if he and Angelina plan to have more kids, and he said, ?We average about two a year, so I guess we’re overdue, aren’t we?” And Angelina concurred: ?If they come our way, we’d be happy to have them all. We love children.” Wait, what? ?If they come our way?? Like, if a neighbor child strays into their yard, Angelina is like, ?MINE!??

Go ahead and yell at me, but I still don?t see the big deal about Angelina Jolie?s leg posing at the Oscars. I mean, I understand why it?s a ?thing? and I think she needed to put her leg away, of course. I thought it was funny when The Descendants screenwriters teased her, but I thought that?s all it was – friendly teasing. Was she trying too hard to work the slit on her dress? Yes. But it?s Angelina. It?s not some Glee twit. Even when Angelina is ?trying too hard? it?s still pretty awesome. The whole incident – and my perception of the balls-out crazy overreaction to The Leg – reminded me of the thing from the 2009 Critics Choice Awards, where everyone claimed Angelina made a bitchface when Anne Hathaway won Best Actress – go back and watch the tape with your 2012 eyes. Is that really what happened? Or are you just hungry to criticize Angelina for anything and nothing?
Anyway, Angelina decided to do some post-Oscar-catastrophe (?? RLY ??) image work. Very conveniently – oh so convenient! – Angelina was pap?d in Beverly Hills yesterday with her de facto mother-in-law, Jane Pitt, and Angie?s youngest kids, the twins Vivienne and Knox.
*jingles keys in front of audience*
You will forget about The Leg. You will stare at photos of happy Jolie-Pitt children. You will see that Angelina still has the approval of Brad?s mom. You will see that Vivienne – the child who normally looks like she?s always on the verge of a wailing temper tantrum – is happy and lovingly attached to her mother. What Leg?
Seriously, though – if Angelina was really worried about The Leg and her detractors, she would have brought out the big guns – Empress Zahara! The fact that we?re getting Viv and Knox means that she?s concerned, but she?s not putting up the Code Red: Brangelina Catastrophe siren.

OK, I?m ready to talk about Brangelina. No, wait. Let?s just skip the Brad Pitt stuff, okay? Because it was like he was barely there. I?m happy that he was nominated twice, as producer and actor, and I would have loved if he had won, but he basically had no chance. Hopefully, he knew that. So let?s just talk about Angelina Jolie and her LEG and this Versace gown. My thoughts on the gown in general – Angelina is comfortable in black, and she was made to wear Versace. It made her waist look tiny. CB and I think her arms look too skinny, so maybe she could have covered them up, but overall, I didn?t hate this on Angie. It wasn?t the best, it wasn?t the worst.
As for her posing and THAT LEG. I don?t even know what was possessing her throughout the red carpet and then on stage – she shouldn?t have to contort her body that hard in a gown. We understand – there?s a high slit. Put your leg down, Jolie. So, Angelina?s leg has now become a meme. Buzzfeed has ?the ten best photos of Angelina?s leg? here. Angelina?s right leg also has its own Twitter account now. And when she presented Best Adapted Screenplay to the three screenwriters of The Descendants, they jokingly ?assumed the position? with their legs out, and it was hilarious. I would have loved a cutaway to Angelina?s face then, because I hope she was laughing at herself.
So after The Descendants? guys ?mocked? her (in what I thought was good humor), everyone was like ?OMG, they think she?s so stupid and obviously they hate her of course.? Um, what? So the screenwriters are getting even more press by explaining that it was just a light-hearted JOKE.
One of the best spontaneous moments of comedy during the 84th Annual Academy Awards came courtesy of Jim Rash, co-writer of The Descendants, and the daffy Dean Pelton on NBC?s Community. After he and collaborators Nat Faxon and Alexander Payne won the Oscar for Best Adapted Screenplay, Rash chose to spend his time on stage paying homage to presenter Angelina Jolie?s right-leg-flashing fashion pose.
?Honestly, as soon as I saw her pose like that, I was like, ?I?m going to do that,?? Rash told EW at the Governors Ball after the show. Producers had asked all the nominees, explained Rash, to have only one person speak when there were three or more winners. ?I knew Alexander was going to take the reigns, so I was like, ?How can I make a moment?? ? selfishly,? laughed Rash. ?I almost thought it was a little Dean Pelton, somehow. I was bringing it all together. Because I have stood like that [on Community].?
And no, Rash had not yet spoken with Jolie about the moment. Was he at least aware that, while he was doing the pose, Jolie was doing it too, standing in the dark on the far left of the stage? ?Are you serious? Oh my god, that?s fantastic.?
[From EW]
Nat Faxon went on to tell The Hollywood Reporter, ?Angelina’s supremely hot. There’s no way to do anything but honor her.? And Rash said, “I had just seen her pose and thought it was bold and fun. And you know what? We have exactly the same legs! Really, it was a loving tribute and nothing but.” See? It?s fine. Brangeloonies, don?t take a fatwa against these poor, funny screenwriters. Brange haters, chill out. These guys are not one of you.

Brad Pitt may not have won Best Actor for Moneyball, that honor went to Jean Dujardin for The Artistobviously (seriously, the Academy must have gotten so hard watching that silent film), but he still gets to bang Angelina Jolie and her right leg, which kept making an appearance through a slit in her dress the entire night. That fact pretty much trumps any Oscar achievement.

They?re no strangers to the red carpet, and Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt caused quite a stir as they arrived at the 84th Academy Awards tonight (February 26).
The ?Changeling? actress looked fabulous in Atelier Versace and Neil Lane jewels joined her Tom Ford tux clad ?Inglourious Basterds? beau as the pair worked the arrivals area like the seasoned pros they are, lighting up the Kodak Theatre with their magnificent smiles.
Coming up tonight, Brad will compete for Best Actor and Best Picture for his acting and producing work on ?Moneyball.?
As for the other nominees, ?Hugo? is up for 11 Oscars, while ?The Artist? has 10 nods, ?War Horse? scored 6 nominations, and ?The Descendants? and ?The Girl with the Dragon Tattoo? each have 5 chances for greatness.
The 84th Academy Awards will be hosted by past favorite Billy Crystal and will celebrate the best and brightest in the movie industry.

Extra released a new-ish interview with Angelina Jolie yesterday – the interview actually took place last week, when Angelina was in Sarajevo for the Bosnian premiere of In the Land of Blood and Honey. What could have been a decent two-minute edited video interview is drawn out to seven minutes of real-time, unedited boringness, though. Look, I love Angelina. But she?s not half as interesting this dude thinks she is. Angelina discusses the film, whether she?ll direct again, whether she?ll ever direct Brad Pitt in a project, and around the five-minute mark, she talks about the possibility she?ll marry Brad:

Extra is claiming in their text of the interview that ?Angelina Jolie hints to Jerry Penacoli she may finally be ready to marry Brad Pitt.? Because she replied to the question, ?Maybe.? She sounded unconvinced and unconvincing. But look how she lights up when she talks about the kids – ?They figured out what marriage is now, they’re old enough so now they kind of like the idea of it. But we’re still convinced that half of them just want to party.”
In other Angelina news, she?s just been confirmed for Newsweek/The Daily Beast?s annual Women In the World Summit, which will be held in NYC next month. Angelina will be joining congresswomen, international politicians, Nobel laureates, journalists, humanitarians, businesswomen and Meryl Streep. Yay!

Here are some more photos of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie at the Sarajevo premiere/screening of In the Land of Blood and Honey – Angelina?s black Versace still seems dated to me, but whatever. Brad and Angie were all over the place in Europe last week – Berlin, Paris, Sarajevo and even Croatia. Angelina went to Croatia without Brad, and with the cast of ITLOBAH. Unfortunately, we don?t have photos – you can see some here. Angelina wore a long-sleeved orangey-coral-colored gown for that event. I?m not crazy about her in that color, but the style of the dress is flattering enough. I appreciate Angelina?s commitment to sleeves. Too many celebrity women fall into the ?strapless gown? trap and never get out.
Anyway, while Brad and Angie were in Sarajevo last week, they hosted a party for the film, and Us Weekly has all the details on the lavish spread:
It was a feast fit for the King and Queen of Hollywood! To celebrate the Sarajevo premiere of her Bosnian war drama In the Land of Blood and Honey, Angelina Jolie pulled out all the stops for a lavish, unforgettable dinner on Tuesday.
With love Brad Pitt at her side, the actress-turned-director, 36, hosted about 30 people who worked on the film at Zetra Sports Hall, where the local film premiere took place; about 200 guests noshed on finger food during an earlier reception.
The dinner menu, prepared by the staff at the Bristol Hotel (where the superstar couple stayed), was sumptuous indeed: bruschetta with chicken liver pate; red trout fillet with black and red rice and fennel; veal filet with three kind of herbs; kadun butic (a traditional Bosnian dish featuring three types of minced meat on a cinnamon stick), and a dessert trio of hazelnut cremino, raspberry cheese cake and tartufo nero.
Jolie and Pitt, 48, paid their compliments to the staff; “they thanked them for wonderful hospitality and tasty food,” a staffer tells Us. “Jolie tasted a little bit of everything”.
In the Land of Blood and Honey actor Fedja Stukan (who dined at Pitt and Jolie’s table) gushed about the meal via the hotel Bristol’s Facebook page: “I must admit that I never had better tasting food! Angelina and Brad agreed with me.”
[From Us Weekly]
Do you believe that Angelina ?tasted a little bit of everything?? The stans will say that she was working, she was networking, and that?s why she didn?t eat that much but she probably did eat and we?re all just haters. The anti-Jolie people will say that of course she ?tasted a little bit? and then she stopped eating because she?s so thin and TERRIBLE and EVIL. As for me… I really don?t think she looks as deathly ill as many of you seem to think. She?s slender. Her legs are especially tiny, but she?s always had really slim legs. From the hips up, I actually think Angelina is looking healthier than she has in a few years. When she puts on weight, it goes to her upper arms and her abdomen (which is incidentally why people think she looks pregnant). So, my verdict: she?s eating solid food. She could totally eat more, and I wish she would, but I don?t buy that she?s starving herself. I think she just eats like a bird.
Here are some additional photos of Brangelina in Paris:

I thought I could always count on Angelina Jolie to be the kind of woman who would never wear a gigantic rose on or around her boob. I was wrong. These are photos of Brad Pitt and Angelina at the Paris premiere of In the Land of Blood and Honey. Can I just say? I?m pleasantly surprised that this film is getting a gigantic roll-out in Europe. I wasn?t expecting to see all of these Brangelina-red-carpet photos, and they always brighten my day a little. Anyway, Angelina is wearing Ralph & Russo. Ralph & Russo also did that grey-blue cashmere gown that she wore in Berlin a few nights ago – that one that made her boobs look good. I really liked that one. Not so much with this one. Is it just me or is that one sleeve a really weird length?
It?s not that I hate Angelina in white. Remember that white/cream Versace she wore to the premiere of The Tourist? I loved that. I wish she would wear that silhouette more often – long-sleeved, deep V-neck with a wrap effect. It?s super-flattering. Part of the reason I dislike this gown is that grey-black ombre effect around the one shoulder. I just? it doesn?t look good, I don?t think. I?m just not loving this.
As for Brad… I’ve grown to hate those tinted glasses. Passionately.
Also – Angelina has a new interview in The Guardian where she’s discussing the threats that have made against her and the cast because of In the Land of Blood and Honey – go here to read it.

| | Enquirer: Angelina Jolie made Brad Pitt cry over meeting with Billy Bob in Berlin | | Added 13 years ago | Source: CeleBitchy |

When Angelina Jolie and Billy Bob Thornton both booked their respective directing efforts at this year’s Berlin Film Festival, the tabloids must have thanked their lucky stars that they’d finally be able to branch out past the Bermuda triangle love stories that have persisted for so many years. Now this week’s issue of The Enquirer has a story about how “cruel” Angelina Jolie made poor Brad Pitt cry in the middle of a restaurant when she “laughed in his face” after announcing that she planned to hang out with Billy Bob after their films premiered at the festival. Whatever. Like we’re supposed to believe that Angelina would give up life with Brad and their six children after staring into Billy Bob’s amazing Botox face and realizing what she gave up all those years ago. So ridiculous.
Of course, Billy Bob and Angelina often flaunted their steamy romance during their short marriage. But that’s all in the past, and it seems like theirs was mostly a relationship based upon sex. Jolie herself famously stated that she and Billy Bob really had “nothing in common,” so Brad has nothing to worry about where the living Madame Taussads waxwork is concerned. Still, The Enquirer’s account is slightly amusing to read as a work of fiction:
Brad Pitt stormed out of a Berlin restaurant in tears after a bitter fight with Angelina Jolie over her plans to reunite with ex-husband Billy Bob Thornton.
The handsome Moneyball actor had flown to Germany to be by Angelina’s side at the Feb. 11 premiere of her critically acclaimed directorial debut, In the Land of Blood and Honey, at the Berlin International Film Festival. But Brad blew up when he learned that Angelina was planning to meet up with Billy Bob, whose film Jayne Mansfield’s Car was also debuting at the event.
According to sources, Angelina had contacted Billy Bob — her second husband — under the pretext of congratulating him on the film, but then asked if they could get together. He agreed to meet, and the two “began talking on the phone and e-mailing behind Brad’s back,” revealed the insider. After the premiere of her movie, Angelina and Brad dined at Berlin’s Zosimo restaurant, where she admitted how excited she was about seeing Billy Bob again, revealed a friend.
“Brad flipped out,” the friend continued. “First he said, ‘No, you can’t!’ But then Angie laughed in his face and said, ‘Oh, yes I can…and I am.’ Brad is shattered and feels totally betrayed. He had flown to Berlin specifically to be by Angie’s side to support her and her film. He was so upset and caught off guard that she could be so cruel that he ran off in tears.”
The actor quickly packed his bags and hightailed it to London, said the friend, where he attended the BAFTA Awards alone.
Angelina, 36, has long had a double standard when it comes to maintaining relationships with exes. While she flaunts her friendly relations with former flames like Billy Bob and first husband Jonny lee Miller, the actress “freaks out” if Brad so much mentions any of his past romantic partners — particularly his ex-wife Jennifer Aniston.
“It’s completely unfair,” said the source. “Brad has always put up with it because he loves her, but he’s not willing to do it anymore.”
Billy Bob, 56, whose three-year marriage to Angelina crumbled in 2003, twisted the knife even further when he raved about Angelina during a press conference in Berlin. “Angelina’s a wonderful woman and one of my best friends in the world,” he told reporters. “I’ll love her until the end of my life, and she’ll love me.”
Meanwhile, Angelina has admitted in the past that she still harbors feelings for Billy Bob. “I still love him dearly and think the world of him,” she said in 2008. “I’m proud to have been his wife for a time.”
According to the friend, Brad, 48, has always been threatened by Angelina’s undeniable chemistry with Billy Bob. And although he was back in Berlin for another red carpet appearance with Angelina on Feb. 13, “Brad warned her that there will be consequences if she really goes through with seeing Billy Bob. He’s not going to put up with her ignoring his feelings anymore.”
[From Enquirer, print edition, February 27, 2012]
See how they still managed to work in Aniston’s name into this story? How crafty. Naturally, The Enquirer strategically left out that Billy Bob was saying that he and Jolie would always love each other “as friends.” So we’re supposed to believe that Brad ran out of the Berlin restaurant with tears streaming down his face even though no one got a photo of it, and you know that if Brad and Angelina fought in public that at least some random bystander would’ve taken a cell phone snap of the event. But no.
Also, here’s more about the speculation that Billy Bob has written a movie that’s inspired by his relationship with Angelina. Billy Bob told Vulture, “No! Not in the least!” when asked if this movie, which will be titled And Then We Drove, has anything to do with Angelina at all. Billy Bob seems awfully surprised that anyone even knows about this film at all, but someone must have said something if Vulture already knew the title, right? Well, the Variety reporter who wrote the original article tells HuffPo that “I stand by my article and reporting 100%” and that neither Billy Bob nor his people are demanding a retraction.
Back to the main story though — it’s rather obvious that Brad has anything to fear when it comes to Angelina and Billy Bob. Still, it’s fun for us to look back at these vintage photos, isn’t it?

Here are some photos from last night?s Sarajevo premiere of In the Land of Blood and Honey. Angelina Jolie must have exhausted her printed and neutral dress supply, because she?s back in black. And I don?t hate it. I find this dress to be very elegant and only slightly dated. Should I judge Angelina for wearing a dress that Nancy Reagan probably wore to a State Dinner during the Reagan administration? Or should I just accept that this is who Angelina is – she is the woman who likes shoulder pads, big jewelry and 1980s glamour. Brad looks especially nice here – he?s not wearing those friggin? tinted glasses, and that beautiful coat is getting a lot of action in Europe, isn?t it? He?s worn it in London, Berlin and now Sarajevo.
According to this report at the Washington Post (read the full piece here), Angelina greeted the 5,000-strong crowd with a few words in Bosnian, then she gave a little speech in English. After the film, she got a standing ovation, which made her cry, and she said, ?To share this with you means the world to me.?
At a press conference earlier in the day (in Sarajevo), Angelina talked about the need for a ?wake up call? for the international community to pay attention to war crimes and atrocities in real time. She made some pointed comments about the situation in Syria too – ?I am satisfied with what we made, I feel very strongly about it and I believe that its core issue ? which is the need for intervention and need for the world to care about atrocities when they are happening ? is very, very timely and especially with things that are happening in Syria today.? Wait? so she?s saying that we need to get involved in Syria? I mean? I understand the humanitarian argument, sure. But there?s so much more at play in Syria than encouraging America to get on a white horse and ?save the day.? Will the proponents of force say that we?ll be greeted as liberators? Again? Angelina has the heart of a neo-conservative, I swear.
She also addressed concerns by the Serb community that they are being portrayed as ?the bad guys? in the film: ?I think it is very important that this film is out at this time and … if this film points the finger at anybody it is the international community. I understand that it?s sensitive. But I also know that the Serbian people are intelligent and open-minded people. They will know the difference between what?s been forced upon them and what they feel in their own hearts? although it?s difficult, I hope that they see intention behind it.? In a rare move, Angelina is also arranging ?private screenings? for Serbs who are interested in seeing the film – she will even send the film to someone?s home, if they are interested.
Oh, and we need to talk about this hilarious photo of Angelina and the cast of ITLOBAH. Why does Goran Kostic look like that? He?s all ?FML.? Dude!
