In a show of solidarity with the third world children she visits, an Angelina Jolie source says her thin frame is due to her going on fasts “to make statements.” Being fabulously skinny is just a side-effect.
“She says, ‘If they can’t eat, I can’t eat,’” the source adds. The busy mother of six “does different cleanses from around the world. It’s very dramatic, but that’s how she gets.” Us Magazine
Click the source link to the article. I love how Us puts a photo of Khloe Kardashian on their cover next to this story. The only thing missing is her clutching a roll of cookie dough. Also, you may not know this but Khloe has her own way to make statements on behalf of starving kids. Her mantra is, “If they can’t eat, I’ll eat for them.” She seems very motivated.

Angelina Week is going full-force! And now we even have some tabloid reports to go along with all of our new photos and interviews. Us Weekly has a bizarre (or on-target?) report about Angelina?s thinness, which? I?m kind of tired of people discussing Jolie?s thinness. She doesn?t really look any heavier or thinner since last year or the year before. She lost a lot of weight after her mom died, and then slowly come back to the figure she has now, which I think it probably close to her natural state. Would I love for Angelina to put on 20 pounds? Of course. I think she would look great with some additional weight on her bones. But to me, she doesn?t look scary-skinny like too many of the girls who bulimia their way to slender figures.
Unlike some of her peers, Angelina Jolie’s pin thin frame has nothing to do with vanity.
The U.N. goodwill ambassador, 36, who travels the globe meeting the poor, “puts herself on fasts to make statements for the children she visits,” a Jolie source tells the new issue of Us Weekly (on stands Friday).
“She says, ‘If they can’t eat, I can’t eat,’” the source adds. The busy mother of six “does different cleanses from around the world. It’s very dramatic, but that’s how she gets.”
If she does eat a burger and fries, says the source, ?she feels guilty about it.?
The actress — currently promoting her directorial debut, In the Land of Blood and Honey — has partner Brad Pitt, 47, worrying about her health, says a second insider.
“He’s worried about her and has made her see a zillion doctors, but they keep telling her she’s fine.”
[From Us Weekly]
Yeah, I don?t believe this. I think Jolie – or anyone who works in famine-ravaged areas of the world – has moments of guilt at being from a country of plenty, but she?s been doing UNHCR work for more than a decade. I just don?t buy that this is her thought process.
Meanwhile, Page Six had this story about Angelina this morning:
Angelina Jolie is asking politicians for their opinions on her movie, ?In the Land of Blood and Honey,? set during the Bosnian war. At a Hearst Tower screening Tuesday night, director Jolie told Marie Claire editor Joanna Coles that she?s discussed the film with Bill Clinton, who ?has [it], but has not watched it.?
She also said she was ?nervous? for the reaction of former NATO commander Gen. Wesley Clark, a consultant on the film. Former Secretary of State Madeleine Albright also has a copy. As for the current administration, Jolie said, ?We?d hope to send it to anyone who is willing to sit down and watch it.?
[From Page Six]
Well, considering that Secretary of State Hillary Clinton?s elbow is Team Aniston, I?m guessing Angie won?t be sending it to Hills. But I?m sure Bubba enjoys Angelina, although she?s too skinny for his tastes. Maybe Robert Gates wants to see it? I?m surprised Jolie didn?t send it to Colin Powell – you know that she?s tight with him, right?

I was all set to say something pointlessly mean and spiteful about Angelina Jolie in Marie Claire until I got a load of her face the cover. Holy shit she is beautiful. Wow. It’s like staring into the face of God. I just didn’t know God would have such nice DSL’s.

We don?t have access to the new photos of Angelina Jolie at last night?s screening for In the Land of Blood and Honey – you can see them here. Jolie wore a black velvet(y) suit that wasn?t very flattering or anything. But! We do have new photos of Jolie in a spectacular white coat, just out and about in NYC, and I?ve also included a preview of Jolie?s Marie Claire cover shoot for January. Plus, there are about twenty million new stories about Angelina too. It?s ANGELINA WEEK. Here are some highlights:
*Two nights ago, after the premiere of ITLOBAH, Brangelina, Julian Schnabel, Jason Lee and Brad?s parents all partied at the Standard Hotel?s Boom Boom Room. Page Six claims: ?Angelina kept it in the family and hung with Pitt and his mom, Jane Pitt, and dad, Bill Pitt, until about 1 a.m? Jolie was overheard joking that the family should ?take their holiday photo? from the spot [on the hotel roof], with its sweeping views of the city.?
*Angelina told People Magazine that she adores Brad?s parents and ?It means everything? I couldn’t be standing here without them.” The Pitts told People that they were ?very proud? of Jolie and they admired her ability to do everything well, especially ?being a really good mom.?
*BABIES. Note the cover line on Marie Claire - ?I could get pregnant again.? Hmmmm? Will Jolie get knocked up again? Will she adopt again? When asked if she would consider adopting a Bosnian baby, Angelina apparently stuttered out, ?There?s, I, you know, it?s not something that?s, uh, that I?ve thought of.? But the NYDN notes, ?she did say she was working with SOS Children?s Villages to help support a Bosnian child through sales of the film?s soundtrack, ?and in other ways.?”
*Angelina commented about the lawsuit against her filed by Croat journalist James Braddock, who claims that he basically owns the concept of women being raped in POW camps. When asked, Angelina said: ?It’s par for the course. It happens on almost every film.? Angelina did say that “There are many books and documentaries that I did pull from. It’s a combination of many people’s stories. But that particular book I’ve never seen”.
*Angelina might work with director Luc Besson, and it might come sooner rather than later. Deadline reports:
Angelina Jolie is in talks to star in an untitled big-scale movie written and directed by Luc Besson. Besson currently has The Lady in the Oscar mix, but this film sounds like a closer cousin to early Besson efforts like The Professional, La Femme Nikita and The Fifth Element.
I?m told that there are serious talks going on for Jolie to star next spring in a dramatic thriller that is rooted in true scientific elements. Besson?s EuropaCorp developed it and will co-finance, and negotiations are already underway with a studio for domestic distribution. The Besson film would be Jolie?s next as an actress, and it would come before she teams with director Ridley Scott on a historical epic about Gertrude Bell that The Constant Gardener scribe Jeffrey Caine is currently rewriting. I?m told there?s a high likelihood that both films will land at the same studio.
The latter film is an epic adventure about a British aristocrat who helped define the current Middle East and the borders of Iraq after the fall of the Ottoman Empire. She became a seminal figure in Middle East politics during the run-up to WWI, acting in roles that ranged from archaeologist to diplomat, photographer and spy. Jolie is also moving quickly on Maleficent, the Linda Woolverton-scripted revisionist take on the Sleeping Beauty tale for Walt Disney Pictures, and she is getting closer to playing medical examiner Kay Scarpetta in the Fox 2000 drama based on the Patricia Cornwell novel series. Kario Salem has turned in a script he wrote in close collaboration with the author, based on her bestselling novel series.
[From Deadline]
Angelina working with Luc Besson? That could be interesting and weird and maybe even great. Why is it that she?ll sign on to this weird action/sci-fi, but when she was offered a bajillion dollars to make Gravity, she was all ?NO!?? I still don?t understand that.

Continuing forth with her east coast "In the Land of Blood and Honey" press blitz, Angelina Jolie headed off to the Bloomberg Tower in New York City on Tuesday evening (December 6).
The "Salt" actress kept warm in a white jacket overtop her beige frock as she shuffled towards the Big Apple locale to meet up with partner Brad Pitt, who was spotted posing for pictures with fans outside the Midtown Manhattan skyscraper.
And while Miss Jolie is certainly excited about the upcoming December 23rd release of her directorial debut, she recently ran into a bump in the road - as a lawsuit has been filed following allegations of copyright infringement from a Croatian journalist.
According to reports, reporter James Braddock claims that "In the Land of Blood and Honey" violates copyright of his 2007 book ?The Soul Shattering.?
With the suit having been filed in Illinois on Friday (December 2), Braddock alleges he met with one of the producers of the movie, Edin Sarkic, back in 2008 to talk about the possibility of taking his work to the big screen - though nothing transpired from that point forth.
Feeling betrayed, James is now seeking statutory damages and an injunction against the film.

Angelina Jolie’s disembodied head and hands haunt this week’s Newsweek, where she talks about the new movie she wrote and directed, “Land of Blood and Honey.” I couldn’t get over how much she looked like Malificent from “Sleeping Beauty” in these pics. I was gonna say, “Just cut the black around her head into the shape of horns and you’ve even got that headdress thing she wears,” except then I read that she’s actually gonna be playing the titular role of Maleficient in an upcoming movie. However by then it was already too late to think of something else to say, because I was out of Wild Turkey. BRB.
Newsweek pics plus some of Angie with Brad Pitt and his parents at last night’s premiere:

These are some photos of Angelina Jolie yesterday in NYC. I really like this brown dress on her, honestly. I think this would have been a much better premiere look than the black sack separates that she ended up wearing. Angelina?s style strengths are 1) Coats and 2) Business attire. She does pretty well for herself if she?s just choosing suits and business-like dresses. I?m also including some photos from the premiere too, because I just can?t get over how hot Brad looks and how much he wants the Oscar this year.
Anyway, there?s still a ton of Jolie news to cover, because that?s what?s happening this week – All Jolie, All Week. This is how she promotes films nowadays. Yesterday, we had a preview of Jolie?s ABC News interview with Christiane Amanpour, and now ABC has released the full interview:

Why she wrote the script: “I was thinking and meditating on these international themes of violence against women, lack of intervention, and how human beings are changed and warped by war, and how some people come out stronger and some people are truly broken,” Jolie told “This Week” anchor Christiane Amanpour, who covered the Bosnian conflict in the 1990?s. “There’s no safe way to tackle these subject matters, but I think the important thing is to discuss them and tackle them. This is our generation’s war. ? this was, you know, the worst genocide since World War II in Europe,” she said. “It was– ‘what were we all doing?’ And ‘did we do enough’ and ‘why do we not speak about this enough’ and ‘why I don’t know enough about this?’ And so I wanted to learn. I felt a responsibility to learn.”
How it felt to be behind the camera: The actress said it felt “bizarre” to play the role of the writer and the director, but added that it was “great not to be in front of the camera.” Jolie said “writing is the hardest because it feels the most exposed. When you’re an actress, you use somebody else’s words and you can always blame the director and the director can say the editor,” she said. “But the writer is the one that kind of sits alone in the room and writes what they think is important, funny, historical, topical.”
She doesn?t think the film will be a hit: “We did it because we felt this is a war that isn’t talked about enough,” Jolie said. “I know it’s a hard film to sit through, but it’s two hours to sit through something that’s very hard, and these people lived through it for many, many years, and it was many, many times worse than any reenactment could possibly be. And I feel like it’s a gift and a duty to sit through two hours of what they lived through.”
On home-schooling the kids: “I’m being very careful with their schooling, we’re home-schooling especially when it comes to history, to make sure it’s not one country’s point of view of their country,” Jolie said. “Because it has to be very balanced and they have to learn about their country so they can form their own conclusions.”
On adoptions: “I look at them and think what their birth parents must have gone through, what their birth grandparents would have done through, and so I feel connected to it,” Jolie said. “It’s a gift when you adopt a child from another country. This whole country enters your home.”
She and Brad disagree about the death penalty: “I won’t say whose side anyone is on, but it’s the one, the thing nobody brings up at dinner because nobody wants us to go off on each other,” she said. “But it’s fun. It’s a fun debate, you know? It’s a good– you want to be able to have — to respect each other’s views and to not be exactly– we’re not identical. We have– we have strong views.”
The future: “I don’t feel needed in a position of being an actor. I feel like I’m needed at home as a mom, and I’m hoping that I’ll find other things,” Jolie said. “I’d love to be able to write or direct or work on and produce more projects about issues dealing with situations that I feel passionate about.”
[From ABC News]
Oooh, she and Brad disagree about the death penalty? I?m guessing that Brad is against the death penalty and Angelina is for it. And I would LOVE to see them fight about it.
One last thing – Patricia Cornwell just confirmed in a new interview that Angelina is still attached to play Kay Scarpetta. Cornwell said, ?We?re still in the early stages of production. She?s attached to the project but all the other pieces need to fit together to make sure everyone?s happy with it ? but it?s looking hopeful that everything will fall into place soon.?

| | Angelina Jolie Stole James J. Braddock's Story | | Added 13 years ago | Source: Yeeeah |

Angelina Jolie is being sued by a Croatian journalist who claims she pilfered the story behind her new movie “In the Land of Blood and Honey” on from a story he wrote back in 2007. Radar Online says:
As an example of the similarities between the story James J. Braddock published and the storyline of the film, the lawsuit states:
“The Subject Work?s main female character is subject to continuous abuse and rape by soldiers and officers in the camp. In addition to being raped continuously by soldiers and officers, she is forced to become a servant at the camp headquarters, a duty assumed by very few of the captives. The Motion Picture?s main female character is also subject to continuous rape by soldiers and officers in the camp and subsequently becomes a servant at camp headquarters.”
Braddock has also named GK Films, the L.A.-based production company which financed and is releasing the film, and several other entities.
He’s demanding a jury trial asking the court to award him damages.
Of course she stole his story. Stealing is what Angelina Jolies do best. She stole another woman’s husband, she then stole that same man’s balls, effectively stealing from what she had already stolen. Why would her movie be any different?
Where’s the power of Greyskull when you need it:

Jesus, how great does BRAD look? That was my first thought when going through these photos of Angelina?s big NYC premiere of In the Land of Blood and Honey. Brad isn?t wearing a g–damn pair of sunglasses, nor is hiding behind some gross beard. He?s relatively well-groomed (for him), he?s wearing a nice suit, his hair is sexy length, and he looks clean. He must really, really want an Oscar, right?
As for Angelina? it was her night, and she looked? okay. I was going to make a big deal about her sack dress, but she?s wearing sack separates – a Joseph top and a Ralph Lauren skirt. I mean? black sack separates, covering up her bust and her figure for the most part. I?m so tired of this look on Angelina. This time last year, she was wearing a gorgeous, white, fuzzy Versace gown to the premiere of The Tourist. I just wish Angelina?s default style was slightly better. Her jewelry is OFIRA – which surprises me. Angelina designed her own jewelry line full of 1970s-style topazes – why not wear some of those?
I?m including photos of Angelina with Brad?s parents, Bill and Jane. Bill and Jane were with Jolie all of Monday as she promoted her film in interviews, and then she posed with them on the red carpet too. Personally, I think Jane Pitt and Angelina get along really well – they seem to enjoy each other, genuinely. I?m not so sure about Bill, though. He seems grumpy, but that might have nothing to do with Angelina. Also posing with Angelina: director and artist Julian Schnabel. Do they know each other? Oh, and James Haven was there with his girlfriend.

Stepping out for her directorial debut, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt took to the red carpet premiere of "In the Land of Blood and Honey" in New York City tonight (December 5).
Looking like the portrait of perfection in a pair of black ensembles, the Hollywood power couple took time to pose for a few snapshots before heading inside the Big Apple School of Visual Arts.
Once inside Brangelina worked the press area alongside one another with the lovely "Wanted" star also taking turns alongside Pitt's parents, Bill and Jane, as well as her movie's stars, Zana Marjanovic and Goran Kostic.
As for the film itself, "In the Land of Blood and Honey" reveals a love affair between a Serbian male and a Bosnian female during the 1992 Bosnian War.
Set for a December 23rd here in the States, the movie was made in both English and Bosnian-Croatian-Serbian language.
