OlderAngelina Jolie @ GAC Launch — Part II
Here is your exclusive access to Board Member of Cambodian Health Committee and UN Goodwill Ambassador for High Commissioner for Refugees Angelina Jolie before the launch of “Global Action for Children” (GAC) on Thursday in Washington, DC. (See Part I here.)
“This is a happy day because it’s not often enough children are represented in this town,” Jolie said. “Their education and well being is an investment in our future.”
When asked about becoming more political or running for elective office, Jolie smiled and said, “I surely don’t think anybody here wants that. [My focus remains] in the field.”
“I feel very fortunate to have orphan children in my home,” added Jolie, who has three adopted children with partner Brad Pitt.

Thank you, Jared, you rock! this is a true gift to all of us who worship Santa Angelina!!!
Coming from Asia, I find it card to comprehend why some of you (probably Americans) are criticizing Angie’s weight.
By Asian standard, given Angie’s height and frame, Angie is of normal weight.
Perhaps most Americans are a bit over weight (obese) that is why some of you here think that Angie is seriously under weight.
That is all, I hope I did not hurt any feelings and if I did I am truly sorry. I am just telling the truth.

That story is in this week’s National Enquirer, one of the absolute worst if not the worst of the US tabloids. IT IS NOT TRUE. IT IS NOT TRUE. The National Enquirer, Star, Life and Style are trash trash and more trash, and lies lies and more lies. National Enquirer is so cheap that the print comes off in one’s hands.

I think this dress is the 2007 version of that dress she wore in Davos. Must of been a big seller.
Here is a pic of that dress:

Thanks for posting the video. She is beautiful, I love to hear her talk, she have a great voice
BEAUTIFUL, GORGEOUS, EDUCATED AND A TRUE HUMANITARIAN…
What a threat to so many….
The enquirer and the rest of the tabloid writers would love for Angelina to be sick!
I watched the video and she for sure sounds like she has a cold. Not the type of sickness the NE was looking for.
I think Angelina is a wonderful person for all she does to help the impoverished. I think she looks tired but great. It seems to me she has gained a little weight from a couple of months ago. I agree that some of the photos it looks like she is not flat in the tummy area.
Kudos #92,youre right…I lurked and finally posted….sometimes I get annoyed..(with hateraiders) but youre right…I’LL just say Angelina walks the walk..and thats what matters to me…And her Beauty Is Not Only Skin Deep…Keep Walking ANGELINA…Brad…
Thanks for the heads up on Jon V on O’Reily. One thing O’Reily mentioned is that they checked AJ out with her charitable donations and she is the real deal. She walks the talk. Jon V was careful not to put his foot in his mouth and say something that will be the headline for tomorrow. He came across as proud of AJ and all she has accomplish. O’Reily talked about AJ life in a fishbowl. However, Jon V made a good statement about how she is able to turn the spotlight away from her and onto people that need it. It is too bad that a lot of self-centered, whiny celebs cannot look beyond their interest to be of service to others.

Thanks for the recap, I’m gladly surprised that Voight control himself.
Than you JJ. I wish the trashy tabs will leave her alone. She is a great person. As for a little bump, may be from Shiloh or if a new bump, this is the greatest news today!
I was wondering if anyone else got a response from Time Magazine in reference to the email you sent about Angie’s Summartion?
I was very nice but I was blunt and let them know that they had basically crawled into the gutter with the tabliods.
It looks like they got quite a few email from outraged females/fans of Angie.

Firstly, GAC is doing good to focus on educating the poor children. It’s absolutely necessary. In some countries very little is spent on education. One such country is Pakistan. For years, only 2% of the nation’s budget was spent on education. This needs to be contrasted with the fact that the army drew nearly 40% of the budget. The result is that desparate parents send their children to religious schools run by almost mullahs, just so their children derive some education for a while.
I should add that I know someone in Pakistan who is setting up primary schools (to year 5 or 6) there for as little as US$500 a year. The schools are really in someone’s home. The charity provides blackboards, basic school books, a teacher - all out of the teachers home. The teacher has high school education and is paid a salary. Some 20 to 30 students under the age of 12 attend these schools. The brighter ones are given scholarships to attend high school. But the hope is that all will come out with basic literacy and numeracy. English is taught.
Secondly, I clicked on the close up photos of Angelina. What fantastic skin A touch of foundation, powder. A little eye shadow - no more I don’t think. For most people, if their skin were magnified 2 times, would look like they had a bad case of chicken pox when they were in their teens!
third, GAC obviously see the value of having Angelina as a honorary chairperson and advocate. Just this publicity alone is equal to thousands of dollars of advertising. it will no doubt translate into donations as well.
Fourthly hahahahahahahahaha “her eyes are too bright”. My goodness, this poor paid flack (reference to singular is intentional!!) is desparately scrabbling at the bottom of the barrel to find something, anything to criticise here. Now her eyes are too bright. All I can say about that criticism is that it has one advantage of novelty in that I’ve never ever heard anyone write that about anyone else on a celebrity blog till now - how bright the celebrity eyes are. Not Kate Moss, Peter Doherty, Lindsay Lohan etc, known users of drugs. Not anyone. Because, of course, it is impossible to tell that someone’s eyes are too bright from photos!!!
So for those who think her eyes are “too bright” I suggest that you consider reducing the glare on your computer screen. HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
I agree with OReilly on one thing. Angelina is the most interesting and in demand celebrity in the world. She has the “it” factor that most other celebs don’t have. Also I like that they said some in the media will do anything to sell a magazine or TV time.
BTW did you see all the tv cameras that were in that conference room? If Angelina had not been there do you think those cameras would have been there for the GAC annoucement. I THINK NOT!

May I ask what Time wrote to you? I did not get an email from them.
Thank you Angie, GAC ED Jennifer Delaney and to all the people involved with GAC. Truly the children are the hope for our future. They’re the most vulnerable yet there are places in the world where their needs are neglected. Angie is just being consistent of what she believed and discussed with in the forum at Davos and in consonance with what Gordon Brown also mentioned. More Power to her!!!
The pics at Getty are the same as the one’s here.

On the first sement on Angie that was shown the lady that was talking about Angie being on the Hill. Said she was there just to see Angie. It is all about Angie and most people know this.
I also saw all those cameras, too. And you are right Angie has the ‘IT’ factor and not many people have it. You are either born with it or not born with it.
Talk about being shock that Bill O was actaually nice where Angie was concern. I was holding my breathe just waiting for the hammer to fall but both BO and JV were nice.
