Angelina Jolie: Reader’s Digest Interview
Angelina Jolie goes face-to-face with Reader’s Digest in their June 2007 issue, opening up about her sexy partner, four adorable kids, and a family going global. Here are a few of the highlights:
Is it true that you adopted Pax so Maddox would have a brother who looked like him? Something changed for me with Shiloh. We had Mad and Z, and neither looked like Mommy or Daddy. Then suddenly somebody in the house looked like Mommy and Daddy. It became clear to us that it might be important to have somebody around who is similar to the other children so they have a connection. Mad’s been very excited that his brother is from Asia.
Is adopting a toddler different? Pax is almost three and a half and has never made a real decision for himself because everybody does everything in a group in the orphanage. There were all these things he’d never had. The first time I gave him a bath, he was suddenly laughing, out of his mind. He took five baths in one day. We’d be talking and he’d take his clothes off and run into the bathroom.
Do you and Brad ever have a conflict or a fight? Not really. We’ll get into issues about global events or something that was just on the news.
The gossip is unrelenting. You’re fighting, you’re jealous, he’s going back to Jennifer. Does it get to you? Our first question is what paper is it in. The New York Times? If not, do we really need to worry?
Do you want more children? Yeah, yeah. More biological, more adopted.

And all the other names you use, crawl back under a rock where you belong.
Could she backpedal any more? She opens her mouth and the ignorance spills out so easily.

What I don’t understand is why in an earlier interview, Angie said that Shiloh wasn’t planned. But now she says that Shiloh WAS.
*************************************
Because she’s a liar and awful strange.
Thank you, thank you Jared for this coverage. Of course, anything Angelina says or touches will be controversial because Brad and her are the most sought after stars today. Actually you can almost read between the lines from her responses, that she had matured. The only problem is, the negative people keep on living in the past (even her brother was interviewed about that kiss which was made a big deal, the vial of blood, etc). She is going to be 32 years in June, the haters are still fighting for the events when she was 19 years old. Grow up people. Brad was caught mooning when he was 25 years old. I’m sure Angelina and Brad have passionate moments behind closed doors but you don’t want to say those things in an interview because it is private. As fans, we are thankful for any romantic and loving moments with their family as we read them even if they are also promoting their work. It looks like they are both happy and in love. I wish them well and I’m happy that even though she is aware of all the trash from the tabs, that Brad and her are still in love with each other and the children. Also, for those who do not appreciate a large family, people who want a large family are more blessed. I am an only child, and it can be very boring. I also have an adopted son of Cambodian descent. So both of them love children, there is nothing wrong with that. And for the one who is predicting for them to break-up, Brad had moved on BIG TIME,
LIVE WITH IT. HE IS NOT TURNING BACK. See the smile on Shiloh’s face, see the shine in Brad’s eyes with her. This man is DEEPLY in love. Nobody knows what will happen in the future. Be more positive.
Thanks JJ for keeping us updated. Thanks to all the fans for posting links of Brangelina pictures.
Good on Angelina J, but really who wouldn’t have their own biological kids as well as adopt a whole nation of underpriviledged kids if they were cashed up bigtime… after all nannies, diapers, food, clothing, shelter, schooling, and all the latest toys DO COST!
Again out of context, she was saying exactly what she said in RD, she was talking about before she met BRAD she wasn’t thinking about having a biological child. Now that you admited you lied about Ann Cury story, go listen to it you nutjob (must be an FF’er) she says “I never thought I would have a bio baby but after I met Brad things felt different”. Now nutjob (hey I like that term it suits you well). Give the beginning of the paragraph the whole thing why she said he changed her.
As far as I can see it there is two huge liars Jen and her lunatic fans.
=====================
exactly. The uh person must be *slow*.
“You could say he changed me.”
He changed her mind about having a bio baby. DUH!
I Admire and Adore Angelina Jolie!She is the most beautiful woman I have ever see in my life and Ive seen many, I work at a Beauty Ad Agency so I see tall Gorgeous women, young and older all the time.I must admit I want to have what she has a family and a good man and I will, Im still young working on college and work.Im glad Brad Pitt and Angie got together they compliment each other physically and spiritually.The family they have has open my eyes to adoption as well as bio.Also because Angie is such a great influence on me with her refugee work,I voluteer at a homeless shelter most weekends where there are families living there. Angie is a great role model for young people like myself,her story of how she turned her life around is inspiring.I usually save my admiration for my mum&dad but made an exception for Angelina & of course Brad. Respect em’ so much!
Seagull…you are an idiot! Please tell us you are locked away from any human contact. I would hate to think you actually walk among us.
Please take a moment to give Brad your vote.The Manistons are voting for Jon B. Just because they are haters of AJ/JP and their voting consistently.They make me sick!!
X fans are mad. This family are happy but X is unhappy with the fact of no movie studios want her and no man wants her. It must be bad karma of deceiving public by lies.
Her VF interview was backstabing job against Brad.
She crafted the idea of ” he is a diabolical, malicious man ” ( from VF)
“Brad didn’t want children” (from VF)
Brad’s fans will not forget what she did against Brad !
I just want to thank my rabid super-fans like “the real tita”, “Pittstop” and, of course, super-nutto “AddictedtoBAMPZ” for all their support. Despite your weight and odor problems, you guys really go out of your way to cheer me on and, meanwhile, I don’t even know who you are and would call the cops if you ever tried to talk to me!! You guys are AMAZING! I am so thankful, pls post your names and addresses on this board and I’ll send each of you a new rag that you can tie to the end of a stick so you can wash those “hard to reach” spots!! Luv, Angie. P.S. I’m changing PAX’s name again, even though he’s three, because I want him to have mental problems, just like his crazy new mom!! P.P.S. extra special props to “Bad Karma”, “Youandyouropinion” and “Don’t Forget Brad” for posting well after midnight. How lonely things must be at the all night drivethru where you work as janitors.
Great points by “Angie”. Lot of odd, sad people on this board, but given how crazy their incest-friendly superhero is, not surprising.
Sounds like angie to me,Go Angelina,God Bless You and your family.
#187 Angie…#188 Heywood Jablowme..#189 Terry O’Shithead…
stop talking to yourselves…..we know you are the same person…have the board to yourself my ass…WE LOVE YOU ANGIE AND BRAD.
#44 Me Says : Married in name only . No documented happily married life the last 2 years of his marriage and reportedly very miserable . No one deserves that kind of hell.
I looooove this article! Just love, love, love them as a couple. I’m also glad that there are a lot of decent posters here. The perezhilton posters can sometimes get out of hand! :S
IT’S ANGELINA IN THAT INTERVIEW.
NOTICE HER TRADEMARK SMILES, GIGGLES AND LAUGHS TOO?
SHE ALWAYS HAS THAT.
HER VOICE IS CLEAR ENOUGH TO BE HERS.
HATERS, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH, BLAH…
