OlderAngelina Jolie: Pimp My Picture, Not My Life!
Thu, 14 June 2007 at 11:38 am
Angelina Jolie tried to keep things focused during Wednesday night’s NY premiere of A Mighty Heart. Media outlets were required to sign contracts before talking to Jolie (as drawn up by her Hollywood lawyer Robert Offer).
Here were the contract terms for interviewing:
- No questions regarding her personal relationships
- In the event Interviewer does ask Ms. Jolie any questions regarding her personal relationships, Ms. Jolie will have the right to immediately terminate the interview and leave
- The interview may only be used to promote the Picture. In no event may Interviewer or Media Outlet be entitled to run all or any portion of the interview in connection with any other story
- The interview will not be used in a manner that is disparaging, demeaning, or derogatory to Ms. Jolie
- The tape of the interview will not be released to Interviewer if any of the aforementioned things happened
One reporter from a major outlet said, “I wouldn’t sign it. Who does she think she is?”
FOX News reports that USA Today, the Associated Press and other media outlets canceled their interviews with Jolie. When she heard the reaction, Jolie scrapped all print interviews.
Hey Angelina, JustJared.com would have interviewed you!!

Angie talks about her personal life some complaint she doesn’t same reaction, but what they want she does?
Leave Angie alone.
WAY TO GO ANGIE!!!! I absolutely applaud her actions.
The press always like to make it seem as though they are the innocent party in everthing, as though they are just doing their jobs. So now Angie is the ‘bad guy’ here because she requested not to be questioned about her private life, but only about the movie. That would be a tough request when you only had questions on everything but AMH.
Good for you Angelina, some mags just make up
stories just to sell. I stopped buying Life and
Style and i just go to this site and Pittwatch.
Angelina forEVER.
It is time we rally around Angie!! It is time we rally around women who are strong and are trying to make a difference in the world. Go Angie! Angie for Prseident!

I can see some morons are having a field day with this. Just so we’re clear, this is the heart of the matter…..
Reporters were asked to agree to “not ask Ms. Jolie any questions regarding her personal relationships. In the event Interviewer does ask Ms. Jolie any questions regarding her personal relationships. Ms. Jolie will have the right to immediately
I ask you all REASONABLE people….Why is this request causing such a big deal? She’s promoting a movie that tells the story of someone else’s Tragedy and requests that all mundane questions about her own life…questions which adds no value to the issue at hand be left outside. She basically challenged the Media to have an INTELLIGENT DISCOURSE with her and instead of takig heu on it, what do they do? They stump their feet, throw themselves to the floor and cry like the babies they are.
Instead of being embarrased that they had to be told how to do their jobs and try as much as possible to let it die down, the fools are calling attention to their incompetencies.

A la cara de caballo jamás le podra pasar esto,dado que una actriz de la lista Z,no tiene repercusión internacional…porque a ver a quien coño fuera de los Estados Unidos le importa la señora que parece un hombre,pero que parece que es una mujer,aunque pudiera ser que se operara y engañara a todos,incluidos un marido idiotizado durante tantos años
Angelina ha hecho muy bien,además ya tienen los tabloides material para tres meses:ya veo los titulares…crisis Angie se niega a hablar sobre sus problemas con Brad…encima les ha hecho un favor…tontos
You go Angie! Bring back real journalist. The media has lost it’s focus. Everyone wants celeberties to let them into every aspect of there lives so they can criticize. We all know no matter what Angie say they will try to make it negative. The woman is human like everyone else. Those two are in love and living their lives—-live and let live, damn.
Angie for President!!!1
Does anyone actually watch FOX news. I know Mmmmm does, because that would explain her ignorance. Mmmmm why don’t you do us all a favor…go bury your head in a sh! t hole and hold your breath.
Lainey has her own take on the whole fox thing saying that brad is the more media savvy of the two and that maybe he was more behind this then angie and she says as usual brad gets a free pass and angie takes all the blame.

Jared - do you understand “Freedom of the Press”. You have just made yourself out to be an ignorant fool. Don’t you want to reword your post. Take a hint from Perez.
**********************
F that *****, Perez.
I can’t stop laughing at “Backlash”. Backlash over what? AJ telling the press to stay focused? Rotflmao….if Paris Hilton’s parents can still walk around with their heads held up high then trust me….AJ will be perfectly fine.
I guess some people think if they repeat it often enough, it will come true.
Doesn’t anyone find it slightly ironic that while she’s publicizing a film about an incredibly brave journalist, she would seek to put limits on journalists and have them enter into a contract that could make them subject to lawsuits? And for those of you who suggest the press should stay away from her “private life”, do you honestly believe that the army of publicists that she and Brad Pitt employ don’t scheme with “Angie” and “Brad” every day to pimp their “private” lives for the benefit of their celebrity? Just how dumb and naive are you people? Oh, right, no criticism of Saint Angelina is permitted. Back to your worship, you mouth-breathing clowns.
You hags are so sad, when reports stick the movie and dont ask about her life, you call out how stupid of reports they are b/c you are greedy for the dirt and when they dont ask the questions you dont like you put them down too. How about this, you hags get a life and go to school to be a jounralist and then you can hound her and ask the “RIGHT” Questions .. boneheads!
I see a few of have already commented on the personal stuff that has been posted … hypocrites!
I was right, several months I ago I said this constant pooping of the mouth she does will bit her in the behind (well if she had one) but it will certainly start be an issue in her life with a guy that likes to remain private. Tick tock tick tock!
Give the love to a strong woman.
#59 it’s not that she has Brad, it’s how she went about getting Brad. Bitc*!
Yes, we will vote Angie 08 for President .
HOooooo, we love Angie!!!!!
YAAAAAAAYY!! Well done Angie!!! I can wait to see AMH!!!! Love her!
Angie for president¡¡

WE LOVE ANGIE, and support her in every way. Angie is our girl.
Enough is enough. We support Angie! Enough of the false press crap!!! Enough with twisting her words!!
the story is bogus people did ask personal questions so i dont get the stupid story
ATTENTION REAL JOURNALISTS AND NEWS REPORTERS!!!!
PICK THIS STORY UP AND INVITE A PANEL INCLUDING DAN RATHER ( REAL JOURNALIST) WHO JUST BLASTED THESE SO CALLED MAINSTREAM MEDIA NEWS OUTLETS FOR MAKING PARIS HILTON 24 PRIME TIME NEWS WHILE WE HAVE A WAR GOING ON, PEOPLE IN THE GOVERNMENT ARE GETTING SUBPEANED, GLOBAL WARMING AND ALL THESE F*CKING THINGS THAT DO MATHER!!!!!
YOU’LL COME OUT SMELLING LIKE ROSES AND WE WILL APPLAUD YOU FOR IT!!\
P.S DON’T FORGET TO THANK MISS JOLIE FOR PUTTING BACK THE FOCUS WHERE IT NEEDS TO BE…
FILM PREMIERE IS TO TALK ABOUT THE FILM..ESPECIALLY THIS ONE!!
Que voten los fans de la gemela de Dustin Hofman¡¡
I love Angelina as much as the next person, but I do see the irony that A Mighty Heart is supposedly pushing freedom of the press while Angelina makes a point to do the opposite. Also why couldn’t she just not answer if someone asked her a question she didn’t like? It’s almost like she’s drawing more attention to her private life…
Are you people crazy? You’re so obsessed with her that you can’t even see the hypocrisy of it all.
The movie is based on freedom of the press.
#125 - I totally agree with you, Angelina for
President…
Enough with tabloid lies!!! Enough with press manipulations!!! We want Angie!!! Let her be!!!
This probably explains the serious faces of Brad and Angelina at the after party. Some of the reporters there were probably from the tabs and the contract was intended to curtail their penchant for smut and smears. However, it was the major publications that got insulted. Can’t win ‘em all. Cest la vie. Hope this blows away soon.
