OlderAngelina Jolie Crying @ Clinton Global Intiiative
Angelina Jolie is wonderful in white as she waves to photographers before leaving a midtown New York City office building Thursday afternoon.
Just yesterday, she spoke at a forum during the Clinton Global Intiative and shared a very moving story, which brought her to tears while telling it
As told by The Huffington Post, “Angelina Jolie [told] one of the most moving stories I think I’ve ever heard about two refugees that she met in Syria. One had been brutally burned and dumped in a trash can and the other was a ten year old boy, and how the two of these people somehow helped each other over a period of months. She was convinced that this little boy, who had spent so much time taking care of this horribly burnt man, who literally had maggots in his wounds, would someday be a doctor and that these people we call refugees are all people that are regular, hard-working people that have been stripped of everything.”

Love and blessings to all the BAMPSZ fans who know how to TRULY REPRESENT Brad and Angelina!!!
love this woman.
shut up amle.
actress are human being, and they cry
JJ, thank you for this site…it brings the fans of Angie and Brad around the globe much closer as we inspire each other to follow on Brad and Angie’s footsteps!
I did not make a mistake choosing her as my idol. A wonderful person.
No wonder Brad fell in love w/ her.
she looks really pretty
a wonderful lady with a wonderful soul
Wow thanks Jared, seeing it the second time is even better. Angie you are an inspiration to many.
well said ping.
shut up haters.
hi lavagirl
carolina - why do you keep telling everyone to shut up.
People are allowed opinions. “Shut up” sounds childish.
If you don’t like what people say, skip over.
She is such an inspiration to everyone. This reminds me to appreciate everything in my life so much more.
I love Angelina’s passion for helping the refugees who have been displaced from their own country. I’ll always pray for Angelina’s success in all her work. More power to Angelina and her untiring humanitarian work.
Love her. She is such a giving, kindhearted and intelligent woman. Her whole life is dedicated to helping others in need and I have so much respect for that.
She is very emotional when it comes to refugees. You just have to watch some of the footage from her trips - she cries often. I, for one, believe it is real and genuine.
she looks very cute
She is wonderful woman and that story was really sad and makes me cry.JJ THANKS BUT I can`t see the pics actually it doesn`t open for me can some one post the picture of her from today for me?thanks
I’m so proud being a fan of Angelina Jolie. She’s a real great role model.
PRETTY, BUT STILL TO THIN.
Hi carolina.
#14 I’m skipping, I’m skipping while all you haters are tripping ;)
actually I can`t see them now.she looks great in white outfit and for sure not pregnant.
People who think she does this for publicity are nuts. She has done over 75 events with the UNHCR since becoming their ambassador and you can tell she is committed and it breaks her heart to see what these kids go through. Most of the other ambassadors (which include or have included folks like Armani, Sophia Loren etc) do two to three events a year. Mmmm. Angie does dozens a year. I’d say that is a commitment.
Thanks Jared. Her interview brought tears to my eyes!
oops can
A very lovely person.
jesus this woman is the best!! she’s such a GOOD person!! she is really adorable! i admire her!
when she dies, she is gonna be remembered as an hero!! she is going to be a LEGEND!!
she is changing the world and I, as a fan, am here to support and help her in her desire to make our planet, a better place!!
GOD I LOVE HER!!!
kiss
If it wasn’t Angelina speaking no one would have listened to the story. She is doing a wonderful job bringing awareness and change to many place that so obviously need it.
Thanks for the new thread Jared and the video clip.
Angie has made me even prouder to be her fan. And she is correct that education is the KEY, it does break my heart that so many in the US take things for grant especially an education.
23 - Typical. Someone says something and immediately dubbed a “hater”. I didn’t even comment on AJ.
she is truly an inspiration
Angelina looks good in all white. Few people can pull that off.
Omg such a touching story. I’m in tears!
Here in the Netherlands we can go to school for free & can go to college with extra money from the goverment, but lots of people don’t go to college.The opportunity is there but they don’t use it. Such a shame cause in lots of country there are plenty of smart kids who can’t go to school. So people GET AN EDUCATION and don’t drop off school! Aim for the highest!
I love Angelina & also her family!!
GBU Angie & family!
Just an Indonesian girl Living in Holland.
go angelina,you rock girl….and for every hater..show us,what could you do instead og insulting a woman that is fight for the poors and refugees…stop being hypocrites..
I read it somewhere that Angie said she takes her three kids to school while she was talking yesterday,so I want to know any one knows If it is true or not?and If yes It means z and pax also go to school.which scholl they are going?
Thanks Jared!
Hello BAMPZS Fans…. :-)
What an amazing woman! She deserves an amazing man and amazing children. I am so happy for both of them and am proud to be their fans for years.
It is easy to see why Brad Pitt fell in love with this woman.
I love her too and I don’t even know her. Angelina - you are the best. God bless you and your beautiful family.
.which scholl they are going?
++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
Why you want to know? YOU CRAZY STALKER!
OH PEOPLE WHY YOU EVEN ANSWER TO THEM,THEY ARE HERE ALL THE TIME AND WANT TO HANG WITH FANS,PLEASE START USING OUR FAMOUSE IGNORE BUTTOM.
she is such an amazing woman
people may have her reasons not to like her
but just look at all shes doing to help this dying world we’re living in
I LOVE YOU ANGELINA
Watch the whole video-its inspiring and very good. You’re right~ not many of us would watch it if AJ wasn’t part of the speaker. That’s amazing!
IGNORE HATERS,IGNORE HATES
***Gentle Reminder***
PLEASE IGNORE THE TROLLS!
Guess who I’m loonies!. I will annoy you to no end!
she is a role model for me. i worship her!!!
“If you want others to be happy, practice compassion. If you want to be happy, practice compassion.” - Dalai Lama
Thanks Jared!
My first message got lost sorry if it is a dup…
Hello BAMPZS Fans!!!!!!
What an amazing woman inside and out!!!!
She’s really something! Iwish I could be more like her. No matter the reason she is still bringing awareness to the topic.
WHY SHE WEARS ONE OF HER RING LIKE THAT?IS THAT MEANS SOMETHING IN YOUR CULTURE?
I love Angie. She’s a true beauty, inside/out and a great inspiration. If you watch the video, it’s heartbreaking.
Wow. Angelina is a great woman, already in the first minute I almost started crying!
god bless her! that was a moving story. that’s why it really saddens me to see those who are lucky enough to afford an education and yet, take it for granted.
WHAT A BEAUTIFUL ANGEL!! LOVE HER :D
Actually, she is not changing the world. You help one person, a hundred take their place. You need to deal with the cause and not just the effect. I never hear her give any ideas on how we as a citizen of the world can stop the blood shed that is causing the refuge problem in the first place.
Peace keepers from the UN just get laughed at and Taliban wants to keep the fight going in places like Iraq and Sudan.
SHE has nice butt.not as much skinny as I think according to what people were saying,actually I think she looks good and has nice body for modeling.is she model?
WHY SHE WEARS ONE OF HER RING LIKE THAT?IS THAT MEANS SOMETHING IN YOUR CULTURE?
+++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++++
mean: “I’m chained to Brad’s heart, so back off *******”
She is an amazing person, and I hope to model my life to help others as she does. The story actually caused my eyes to fill. I think it is amazing that she doesn’t take advantage of her being a celebrity, instead she is just a normal woman, whom everyone knows of, and who is trying to make a difference in the world. We’re very fortunate that there are people like her that are doing their very best to help as many people as they possibly can.
I think it admirable what she’s doing. If Angelina wasn’t speaking, I’m sure not many people would be focusing on this topic. I’ll have to admit if I wasn’t a fan of hers I would not listen to the speech either. So, bravo Angelina. Here’s to getting more people to listen about refugees.
nobody does it like angie.
she’s gorgeous inside and out, while most women in hollywood are mainly concern with looking good and latest fashion trend, angie is helping the world to be a better place. Angie shines no matter what.
god bless brangelina and the children.

ACCESS DENIED By SAMANTHA POWER

The numbers are so staggering that they are hard to process mentally and impossible to process logistically: each month some 60,000 Iraqis are voting with their feet against the surge of U.S. forces by fleeing their homes. Since the invasion, more than 2.5 million Iraqis have left for neighboring countries, while 2.2 million have been forcibly displaced within Iraq - too poor to escape the country or blocked from transitioning through more peaceful provinces, which in recent months have erected checkpoints to keep them out. To put it in stark historical terms: the war has created the largest refugee crisis in the Middle East since the displacement of the Palestinians in 1948.
Here is what it looks like on the ground: in two short years, a million Iraqi refugees have poured into Syria, a country of 19 million. In U.S.-population terms, this would be the equivalent of 15 million Iraqis arriving on our shores. Overwhelmed by the deluge, Syria has said it will begin requiring visas for Iraqis next month, the practical equivalent of shutting its doors, while Jordan, which has admitted 750,000 Iraqis, closed most of its border crossings earlier this year.
Despite all this, the U.S. debate about withdrawal from Iraq seems remarkably indifferent to those whose lives have been upended. The Bush Administration talks of staying the course without expending nearly enough political or financial capital to mitigate the humanitarian catastrophe that it pretends does not exist. Many advocates of withdrawal point to the humanitarian disaster as a ground for leaving without addressing how worse suffering might be averted.
Thus far, the American discussion of the refugee crisis has focused on the paltry number of Iraqis the U.S. has let in. Although the U.S. was the lead architect of the invasion, only 535 Iraqis were granted entry last year. Sweden, which opposed the war, took in 8,950. Ironically, in 2000, three years before the war, the U.S. admitted 3,145 Iraqis, whereas fewer than 1,700 Iraqis have been resettled on American soil in the four years since.
The situation has grown so desperate that even our mild-mannered ambassador, Ryan Crocker, sent a harsh cable to the State Department on Sept. 7, titled “Iraqi refugee processing: Can we speed it up?” He complained of the endless “bottlenecks” delaying entry even for those Iraqis who had risked their lives working for U.S. forces. Crocker pleaded with immigration and Homeland Security officials to fast-track the screening process so the State Department’s recommended 7,000 asylum slots could be filled.
But while expeditious review and expanded quotas are urgently needed, they will not affect the welfare of the several million Iraqis who have lost their homes and their livelihoods. If the Administration is to ease the toll on Lebanon, Egypt, Jordan and Syria and persuade them to welcome Iraqis in need, it must extend massive assistance to those governments to help fund shelter, food, sanitation, health care and transportation for arriving Iraqis. Among the 200,000 Iraqi children who have fled to Jordan, only 20,000 started school in the past year, and 6,000 of them dropped out. As the Israeli-Palestinian conflict should have taught us, the grievances of refugees may start as humanitarian concerns, but they quickly become security problems.
President George W. Bush is in denial about the refugee crisis. He claimed this month that “ordinary life is beginning to return” and warned that with a U.S. departure, “Iraq could face a humanitarian nightmare.” But he has refused to deal with the nightmare already under way. It is as if he fears doing so would mean conceding the costs of the U.S. invasion and would undermine his arguments for staying. As he argues that we have a moral responsibility to Iraqis, it would be inconvenient for him to draw attention to how we have shirked that responsibility.
In addition, if the President were actually to insist that the U.S. and its allies resettle Iraqi refugees in earnest, he would be making it that much harder for an educated, moderate Iraqi middle class to reconstitute itself. How would Iraq “unleash the talent of its people and be an anchor of stability in the region,” as Bush promised, if its doctors were practicing medicine in Detroit and its English speakers were in Langley, Va., translating Arab press reports for the CIA?
The brain drain is a legitimate concern, but the welfare of Iraqis fleeing for their lives cannot be held hostage to Bush’s romantic dreams for a “free Iraq.” The U.S. lost the war in Iraq. At the heart of the debacle in Iraq has been the repeated failure to deliver a more secure life for Iraqis. It is long past time that we stop simply debating the “fate of Iraq” and start addressing the fate of Iraqis.

how she’s wonderful i just can’t stop loving her everyday
Angie, loving you is easy because you’re beautiful…even more beautiful inside than on the outside (didn’t think it was possible.)
I watched this last nite and it so moved me to be as loving as you are…starting with embracing all your fans around the world and not considering ‘em as strangers because we are all citizens of this world.
Spreading the love Brad and Angie have shown,

Actually, they not get laughed, they get killed. War is a businees, and as long as someone is making money, un justife wars will keep going on. One person can make a difference. Do something, it helps.
her rings is really beautiful,Ididn`t notice that they are joining to each other actually she has three rings in her finger one of them are too thin.you can see it in pic number 27.
WoW! Beautiful woman with a good heart.
God bless her and her family.

GO BUSH! NOT. My God, this moron started a fake war and now, he doesn’t want to help the iraqui people.

Can someone explain her rings? Very unusual and quite beautiful.
Bravo to Angie for her wonderful UNHCR work. She raises awareness like no one else seems to have the power to. She’s in the public eye, so it’s good to see she’s using all the attention she receives to do some good in the world. Continue to ignore the haters and trolls - they’re foaming at the mouth and all they can spit out is nonsensical drool.
i want angie or oprah to adopt me. lol I admire and love
these 2 women so much. Every day I try to find my inner angie/oprah in me.lol nothing better in this world than be a good person at heart and if you can, help others in needs..
I wonder If it is the same ring that people said Brad gave her for her birthday?it is beautiful and unusual ring.
I adore her too. Her passion inspires me.
#54: it’s the people already in crisis that she is trying to help out. She is not a military or a diplomatic expert so she is not able to give in that capacity. Leave that to those who are well versed in those fields. Refugees are the ones she has the most compassion for and so she is doing all she can to boost donations, emergency relief and even education.
If she becomes political, she risks the alienation of certain factions and that will ultimately not help her cause. Leave her to do what she does best. Don’t expect her to tackle more because what she is doing right now is already quite a lot. This woman is not getting paid to do all these humanitarian work. She is actually the one giving more than just her time and effort…she is donating money as well.

=======================================================
This isn’t the first time Angie has worn a ring like this. Go and look at the Taking Lives Premiere and you will see a ring similar to or if not the same.
With all due respect, anyone claiming she does this for her own publicity, has got to be out of their mind and in dire need of medical assistance.
She needs people to see her cry? Yes. That’s what she needs. She needs people to believe she’s amazing. She has four kids and a man who loves her. Yes, she most definitely needs other’s opinions.
You have got to be insane or lacking the love that she has and are purely jealous. :D

Just wanted to pass on this message to anyone not subscribed to the savedarfur.org newsletter. Please go to their website to get the link to donate:
The tremendous response to our matching gift fund has filled me with hope - not an easy feat in the face of the atrocities we’re working to end every day.
But we’re only $175,875 away from reaching our $450,000 goal by September 30th. Will you help us take full advantage of this extraordinary opportunity to ramp up our efforts?
There are only three days left to see your dollars doubled to help bring peace to Darfur.
Give now to make your tax-deductible donation go twice as far for the people of Darfur.
I know how easy it is to feel helpless. Here we are, a world away. Years have passed since the world community began pushing to end the horror - and yet it continues.
The people of Darfur continue to face horrors most of us can scarcely imagine. More than 2 million people have been driven from their homes and into danger. The threat of rape, torture, murder, and malnutrition pursue the people of Darfur wherever they flee.
That is why it is so crucial that we take advantage of opportunities like this matching gift fund to redouble our activism, our commitment, and our impact.
By helping us reach our $450,000 goal, you make sure we have the resources to:
Demand action from the United Nations. We’re partnering with organizations around the world to make sure that the U.N. immediately deploys the recently authorized U.N.-A.U. peacekeeping force for Darfur.
Pressure President Bush to uphold U.S. commitments to Darfur. We’re working to ensure that the U.S. plays its part in providing the peacekeeping force with the financial and logistical help it needs to succeed.
Shine a spotlight on China. We’re collaborating with Olympic Dream for Darfur to force China, Sudan’s largest foreign investor - and the host of the 2008 Olympics - to recognize its moral obligation to stand up for the people of Darfur.
Urge investment firms to divest from companies that help fund the genocide. We’re expanding our campaign to get Fidelity Investments and other mutual fund companies to fully divest. We need your help to turn up the heat on these investment firms and on Congress.
Together, our efforts are giving the people of Darfur a voice. Right now, you can help make that voice twice as strong.
Please don’t let this opportunity pass. Make a donation today - before the matching gift offer runs out on September 30th.
Thank you again for your commitment to stopping the violence.
Best regards,
Colleen Connors

I used to not like Angelina, but she has changed so much. Now I love her for her humanitarian work and can see the beauty everyone else sees in her.
P.S Brad is a very lucky man.

Bestow My Wealth upon My poor, that in heaven thou mayest draw from stores of unfading splendor and treasures of imperishable glory….”
love this woman,she has really influence me in giving more and help the less fortunate.may God continue to bless her and her family
Those are not crocodile tears - anyone who thinks that you can see what she has seen and NOT cry doesn’t know that of which they speak. They should go see some time - they will cry real tears too.
got to go,i hope we try and keep the thread free from hate mongers,
It has taken me a while to warm up to Angelina, but now I think she is quite extraordinary. I could see how Brad fell in love with her.

=================================================
No one has the power to change the world. There are many factors in play. Even Bush who started the almighty war is a puppet.
You want Angie to really deal with the causes? she will be assassinated in no time.
Even the whole UN doesn’t have the power. In fact, UN is sort of like a wimp.
You are too demanding of Angie. she is not God. (well, even God seems doesn’t have the power to deal with the causes)
you can only do your part to influence the world for the better. you can’t have a head-on confrontation with evil doers.

Tried to post a link but it wouldn’t work — maybe someone else can post it?!
For those of you who haven’t seen it yet make sure you watch this video from yesterday also…
http://abcnews.go.com/Video/playerIndex?id=3657494
#54- I understand what you are saying - but this particular event was focused on education.
If you really think about it - Education in these countries will change the world over time. It will give people who have no understanding of how to change their own countries and lives the educations to learn a skill/profession. This will eventually (yes - it will take a long time) allow the refugees the knowledge to be Farmers, Doctors, Engineers, and more than anything - learn that they will control thier own destiny and hopefully one day take back control of their countries.
Those of us who live in priviliged countries need to stand up and insist our politicians do more to stop the violence in area’s like Darfur and many others. The countries many of these refugees are going to, such as Syria, should truly focus on this so their own countries aren’t taking in more than they should have to.
That being said - Angelina is taking part in and going places most of us would NEVER even consider going. There are much easier ways to get press coverage and PR than doing what she is doing. This is obviously not just for Public Relations Purposes.
HI EVERYONE,

ANGELINA HAS THIS CALM ABOUT HER THAT MOST PEOPLE DONT ESPECIALLY FUG FACE CHIN CHIN MANISTON.
I am glad that AJ made time for her UN work. She looks great and she is dedicated to her UN and humanitarian work. Angie FTW!

#54 Cause-Effect
You say: she is not changing the world. You help one person, a hundred take their place. You need to deal with the cause and not just the effect.
There is an old story about child walking on the beach at sunrise. He is throwing starfish back into the sea. A man is watching the child and says to him “What are you doing?” The child says–”I’m saving starfish–they die when the sun hits them.” The man replies-”How can you possibly make a difference–there are thousands of them on the beach.” The child says as he throws one in the water, “I made a difference to this one.”
Angie may not be saving thousands, but who knows–maybe that one she saved by caring (or by adopting) will turn out to do something great like find the cure for cancer or a solution to global warming. As humans we can make a difference one person at a time by showing kindness, compassion, caring–by giving hope.
Just keep on going Angie!
test
That’s so touching. She really does care about people and I think she really does deserve to be a Goodwill Ambassador..
I admire them so much more. Their presentations of future endeavours yesterday at the Clinton Global Initiative are bold, ambitious, relevant and achievable. Instead of living a life of indulgence and debauchery, Brad and Angie are setting exemplary ways to make a difference in the world and help those who are in need. Their critics can spew their doubts but Brad and Angie are undeterred with their quest to MAKE IT RIGHT in their causes. Blessings abound their lovely union!

TODAY,
I MADE A PROMISE TO MY SELF AND TO BRAD AND ANGIE.
I WILL IGNORE ALL HATERS.
SO IF YOU MOVE ON OUT OF HERE BECAUSE NO ONE IS GOING TO STOOP TO YOUR LEVEL.
Actually, the ring is very unique in style and Angie is like that….very stylistic and unigue. She’s one of the kind. I like the style of the ring, I’m sure the others will follow as usual. She can carry any dress style and hairstyle with that beautiful face and model body figure.
You people are really annoying. You say the same things EVERY time there’s a new post about Angelina. We get it. You think she’s every wonderful adjective under the sun. Get lives!
She is absolutely inspiring. We need more people like her in positions of power. Her passion and dedication are above and beyond what many of us will ever know. Her words were so eloquent and truly genuine, such a pleasure.

Dont grieve for me, for now Im free
Im following the path God laid for me
I took His hand when I heard Him call
I turned my back and left it all.
I could not stay another day,to laugh,
to love,to work or play.
Tasks undone must stay that way
Ive found that peace at the close of the day.
If parting has left a void,then fill it
with remembered joy.
A family shared, a laugh, a kiss,
Ah, yes,these things I too will miss.
Be not burdened with times of sorrow
I wish for you the sunshine of tomorrow.
My lifes been full,I savored much
Good friends,good times,
a loved ones touch.
Perhaps my time seemed all to brief,
Dont lengthen it now with undue grief.
Lift up your hearts and share with me,
God wants me now, He set me free.

Lady G its not the same kind of a ring. This is different.
====================================================
I say it is similar…… it’s not the first time Angie has worn a unigue ring or anything else. Some want to focus on a ring when Angie is on a totally different level, IMO.
Sorry folks I don’t think the link I gave you re the video from Angie’s on ABC is still working. I know this one works. Click on the top video…

I LET YOU ANSWER YOUR OWN SICK QUESTIONS. FREAK.
What an AMAZING woman! BEAUTY, BRAIN and a KIND HEART!!!
Thank you JJ for the new thread. As usual you are the BESTS!
Sasha, why are you letting the trolls upset you?
What a beautiful time it is for us Brad and Angelina fans. Our admiration for this couple has been so justified. They are truly citizens of the world, and they are now part of movers and shakers on an international level, not just the national level. Mad, Pax and Zee are so lucky to have been adopted by them, and Shi is lucky to have them as her parents.
JJ, thanks for this new thread.
Angie is glowing!!. Her smile is contagious.
to 115 ‘jennifer anniston is hot’ .
That was nice of you & I enjoyed your poem.
Missouri Fan will enjoy it too,if she sees it.
Angelina has developed into an exceptional person - what a transformation, and what wonderful work she and Brad are doing. Bravo for them both, but mostly for her, to have changed so beautifully and become such a force for good in the world. Just think what her children will do in the world as well, with such role models. I am inspired.

What a beautiful time it is for us Brad and Angelina fans. Our admiration for this couple has been so justified. They are truly citizens of the world, and they are now part of movers and shakers on an international level, not just the national level. Mad, Pax and Zee are so lucky to have been adopted by them, and Shi is lucky to have them as her parents.
So True, & we will continue to give them our support.
We are continuing with our admiration ect.,,
regardless to 1 or 2 or the same mentals on here.
So this Wednesday Angelina was in the Clinton Global Initiative, Today she meet with this European Union Foreign Policy Chief and Tomorrow she is meeting the Diplomatic British Guy????
DAMN!! Angelina is REALLY a power player!! I mean, why other actress in hollywood does this?? NO ONE!! ONLY HER!! No wonder the Haters hate her so much; because no other actress can compare to her!! Much less Jennifer Aniston!! I mean, Angelina surpass Jennifer in BEAUTY, INTELLINGENCE, COMPASSION, etc., etc, etc.
So that is why i hope that the Jolie-Pitts fans ***IGNORE*** the Haters!! I mean, the Haters are losing their SH*T, because like i said… Jennifer cannot compare to Angelina!! Yes, Angelina surpass Jennifer in everything and this is killing the Haters, so to make themselves feel better… they write the most DISGUSTING things about Angelina, but it doesn’t matter what this Haters say… because Angelina is a BEAUTIFUL person inside and out!!
So *****IGNORE**** the Haters!! Yes, let them choke in their own VILE!!
Bla, bla, bla….publicity! Thats what she is looking for.
Anyway if she can help….being a refugee must be the sadnest thing in the world.
AMAZING. Eloquent speaker. Love her.
It is extraordinary to see how Angelina has transformed into this amazing woman over the last six years. Just to think she is only 32. Can you imagine what more she is going to accomplish by the time she is 42? May God bless her and protect her for her work in this world is not quite done, I feel.
Angelina’s speech was so beautiful!! I love her!! She looks very very beautiful in the pics!!
God bless you Angelina…Thank you for having “Al 3azima”, your strenght of will gives us hope!
Intelligent, beautiful, compassionate, articulate, fierce…a woman of passion and substance !
The whole package ! You are a very inspiring human being Angie, a beautiful, genuine soul !
♥Thank you Angelina for making me belive in mankind ..You are amazing in every way ♥
Angie is so hype
you know how brad loves to hear her give speeches.
Love her. Angelina looks beautiful.
I have been having the worst time posting guys. I guess because of Jared’s new ads or whatever he is doing to the site. So I have to type this from my school computer lab. I hope everyone is well.
I was able to see her speak yesterday and I was so moved.
I have been on JJB and I was able to see the panel and I loved it.
♥♥♥
It is a very moving story, one point to make though.
While having uninvited maggots eating your dead flesh is certainly not an image that most of us want lingering in our heads. Maggots are used, under controlled conditions to help heal serious flesh wound patients. Maggots eat only the dead and diseased flesh away, in effect cleaning the wound better than any surgeon could.
souljolie has pics of her with Javier solana! I’m so happy for her, what a week she’s having.
Love you ANGELINA.
You are my kind of gal.
I will support you all the way!
…any “normal” person will get emotional earing that story…in part because she feels really emotional telling it (true fellings).
AJ is great.
hope they do help some/a lot of those kids to get education
There we go JPs, keep it up. Certain mentals hate for us to give kudos to our ‘Royal Couple’ who are trying/doing to make a difference in this world.
I enjoy reading JPs post intelligently about them., & I enjoy reading each posts (not trolls), & articles from the fans.
I learn something new everyday. Thanxs.

love anniston that was cute
I LOVE HER SENSITIVITY THAT’S BEAUTIFUL TO ME.
I evolved from admiring her outward self to adoring her profound being. I am a huge proponent to higher education and this woman knows exactly which field to be involved in. SHE IS ONE OF A KIND and I am so proud that by far she delivered results and once again challenge all of us to open our hearts to the unpriviledge children of the globe. Lucky kids and Brad. Ijust LOVE Love her views in life.
SHE IS AMAZING WOMEN. LOVE HER SO MUCH.
#109: we give her adjectives but she does the verbs. How can you not feel for this woman?
although you feel differently than us, you are still affected that’s for sure. Save yourself the frustration…don’t click on her threads at JJs and don’t read the posts. You know what you’ll find anyway so why bother? There are other threads…go to Zanessa’s since you don’t like Angie’s.
the Jolie-Pitts are good people. i’m inspired by them.
www: nevermind, I just find the pics with Solana.
Have to go now. BBL.
I don’t know how she does it every men in that meeting staring at her and ready to eat her…that is my Angie!
Finally got to watch Brad’s part on the CGI conference. Thanks Guli for the link. What a guy. And I just made him a little poorer by making him match my donation to “Make it Right”.

Thanks Jared for the video link. Very, very moving. Her passion and commitment to refugees, especially children in areas of conflict, is awe-inspiring. No wonder so many businesses, NGOs, and government officials are following her lead in trying to help educate the millions of displaced kids around the globe. Thanks to her and Gene Sperling’s efforts they were able to bring this issue to the forefront at the CGI conference. As Brad put it recently, “She’s amazing.”
It’s so ironic that while the paps, the tabs, and the public have been following them around like hounddogs, they have accomplished so much behind-the-scenes with their humanitarian efforts. Even us fans didn’t realize the magnitude of their efforts until we saw them unveil their projects on Wednesday. How do they find the time?
Amazing, amazing, amazing!!! :-)
#115: jennifer, that was a great poem, thank you on behalf of MF. I am sure MF will appreciate that. Maybe I’ll copy it and e-mail it to her for you. I will also keep a copy for myself if you don’t mind.
Many here enjoy your posts so you are always welcome anytime.

**********************************************
i am not on the pregnancy train, because recently pictures shows her belly is really flat, and if she was pregnant we would have seen a baby bump by now.
I know why I come here - I like Brad and Angie. But what compels haters and cynics to come? Something drives them to seek out positive and try to destroy it. Sad to be filled with such hate and misery in the soul. We need more tolerance and compassion in this world - I commend anyone who is trying to help others who are in destressful situations.
trolls take a break. log on links and do your homework if you want to really know about them,, but honestly you dont. you dont like them, as tita has said, so go on. why should we waste pages explaining and answering you trolls. you will never really want to understand, because you dont like them. we do, so go awayyyyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!we are not your baby sitters. spew your ignorant hate of them on ff or d-listed. with that said good by and go awayyyyyyyyyyyyyy!!!!!!!!!!!!
“Children caught up in these situations can either turn to violence and despair, or be the new leaders of a better future for their families and nations,” she said.
“These are children who most need a safe place to learn; a place to heal; a place to learn reconciliation and a place to just be children. Some think we should only provide emergency relief to children in conflict … they say education is not lifesaving. All of us here today would beg to differ.”
=======================
This is such an inspiring and moving declaration of Angelina’s passion and devotion in support of her worthy-projects/charities. I have so much high regard and admiration for Angelina! I so love her and her family too ^i^ ^i^ ^i^ ^i^
Love Brad and Angie and I do think they are changing the image of Hollywood stars for the better.
i love her & what she’s doing.
She is awesome. why did we get so many pix of angie at the cgi and hardly any of brad? he was there and im sure a whole bunch of pics were snapped of him too.
Aliane
You need treatment. you are very very very sad, girl. Here, in Amsterdam you would get free Paddo’s (magic mushrooms). To late to valium….
ALIANE, YOU’RE A LUNATIC PHSYCO WHO TALKS ABOUT THE PASS OVER AND OVER AGAIN, WAKE UP AND SMELL THE COFFEE. YOU HAVE A HUGE PROBLEM IN YOUR BRAIN AND SOUNDS LIKE YOUR FULL OF JEALOUSY AND ENVY OF WHAT ANGELINA DO FOR GOOD, NOW WHAT HAVE YOU DONE FOR OTHERS??? YOUR NOT EVEN AT ANGELINA’S LEVEL OF HUMANITARIAN WORK YOU SHOULD GO TO MENTAL INSTITUTION OR CONSULT A PHSYCOLOGIST. YOU NEE HELP BIG TIME!!!!
115 jennifer anniston is hot
IT WAS GREAT,I`M SURE MF WILL LOVE IT,WE MISSED YOU GIRL,WHERE HAVE YOU BEEN.
HI FANS,I`M BACK FROM WORK,ALTHOUGH I`M SO TIRED BUT I want to say hello again to all the fans here as I said before I have my mental ignore buttom here all the time,peace to all.
Angie is one great,caring,bigheart,etc etc woman,I`m proud for being her fan.WE LOVE YOU ANGIE,I MEAN ALL THE WORLD GOTTA LOVE YOU.
I feel sorry for all the TROLLS. They are all dying of JEALOSY. It’s killing them to see Angelina getting all these commendations.They can’t accept that ANGIE has BEAUTY and BRAIN and love by a lot of people around the world. Ha Ha Ha Ha Ha. C’mon TROLLS/HATERS keep on banging your heads on the wall. Whatever you say it won’t affect us (fans) at all. NEVAHHHH! We fans are UNITED!
169 hmm
Brad was not there as much as Angie was,Angie attended two meeting, one press conference and another her meeting .so it should be more picture of her from CGI than Brad.we just got photo of him during his speech.and I think he left early too to take his kids out of their schools.
Wow. what a beautiful helpful amazing woman
She is amazing woman!
115 yes., ja is hot..love your poem/s. MF will also like it.
It made me cry too.
Me like most of us here has lost a love one.

TRUE but these pix are just more of the same day as the last angie thread. in brad’s cgi thread there was only like 5 pix and you KNOW they took a million of him while he was standing up there for five minutes. I was just wondering why we didn’t get more of him because im bored and wanted to look at pix of him at cgi and maybe watch the vid too. oh wells, i enjoyed angie’s vid.

This is just an example of an “anger-provoking behavior.” Simply unethical and unworthy of our time.
Angelina Jolie is an extraordiary and compassionate wowan. I am sure she knows she is not perfect, but she is trying really hard to be the best mom, partner, friend, and U.N. embassador that she can be. This is not only me saying, I read, I get my facts before opening my mouth. I am going to believe Brad Pitt if he says Angie is a “great mom and partner,” and Colin Powell when he said “She’s absolutely serious, absolutely informed,” “Her work with refugees is not something to decorate herself. She studies the issues.” “For her, it’s not about saving the world, it’s about saving kids,” he says. “She doesn’t need this. This needed her.”
HATE IS THE REAL EVIL.
I didn’t think it was possible for a human being to have such a bright soul! She has moved me beyond words, and it’s people like her who has opened my mind and made me more aware of myself as a citizen of the world… that each person, no matter where they live, or where they’re from deserves to be treated with respect. Thank you, Angelina, for being such a great example of how one person can make such a huge difference. Thank you for being a shinging star.
I am thankful for being one of the millions of fans of Angelina, for the way she is bringing a meaningful difference in this world. She changed me as a person in the way I view the world from within. I find pride and joy for the roles she fulfills! Angelina is not just a wonderful mom to Shiloh, Maddox, Zahara and Pax, she’s also a very supportive, and great partner to Brad, a true friend, an amazing humanitarian, an awesome and talented actress, an unbelievable woman who does 80% of her stunts in movies she portrays, a sexy biker, a tall, slender, and stunning model since she was 12, speaks several languages, and the most beautiful licensed pilot ever to board an aircraft! How can someone not admire her?
I’m sure there are so many more roles she has portrayed or talents she has gained, if you know them, please feel free to add.

Luv her and her family =]
LOVE U ANGE.
She is truly amazing!!!!
I’M PROUD TO BE ANGELINA JOLIE FAN. I’M WITH YOU ALL THE WAY…
in a world that can so easily make all of us jaded and unfeeling it is amazing to see that people even those with fame and fortune are able to feel a connection to humanity is remarkable. I am so very honered to have caught that moment in time and to have shared it with all of you,who like myself admire this woman immensely.
there is good in the world afterall… if that video didn’t move you then i don’t quite understand what will…
AMAZING WOMAN….
I LOVE this woman! She is amazing!
Guli,
Thanks for the link to Brad’s presentation.
Amle, if you only heard the story about these people, you will be moved too. I hope, they get the necessary help thru The UNHCR. I would love these people to succeed in life specially the little boy. Because of Ange the story was told & people will listen & help. When Ange told that story, it’s coming from her heart not that she needs to act but her compassion to help.I myself was moved by that story, we need people who cares like Brad & Ange. They really make a difference.
Love you, Angie!
Pity you, cynics!
my God I LOVE this woman
she is a true angel
Thanks for the thread Just Jared. AJ looks great in white with her big smile. Her speech at the CGI was very impressive and emotional. It is obvious that she cares deeply about helping others through her UN work. She is a dedicated humanitarian. BP also gave an empowering speech as well as many of the other presenters. Thanks for all the articles and links. Peace to all.
Hey thanks Jared for putting this video!!! :)
This has all been rather sad to read. Heaping all this praise and adultation on a person who is simply doing what her ‘team’ of publicists and handlers tell her to do. Her ’story’, was one of her better performances, surprising as her movies have been pretty awful as of late.
“Idol”, “Hero”, “Role Model” - I have a hard time beliveing that anyone would name her any of these things. But, nonetheless, some of you have. And that in it self reveals so much about the person who calls her that. Please, consider the whole person, her not so long ago past and the fact that not one of you knows her personally. No one knows what kind of parent she really is, other then a random (or staged) photograph or a carefully released press statement, the truth is still behind closed doors. Where it belongs.
There are so many more humans who are truly deserving of those titles of “Hero”, “Idol” and “Role Model” in this world, many of them alive and kicking still. The people who do devote their lives to humanitarian causes. Teachers, scientists, medical researchers,
possibly your own parents.
Read, learn, think for yourselves.
Find out who Mahatma Gandi was, read the words of the Dali Lama, learn about the public works of Eleanor Roosevelt, check out Brooke Astor, Golda Meir, even Boadicea if your interested in strong women who lead their people and devoted their lives to others…
Nelson Mandela, John F. Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, Mary Queen of Scots, Indira Ghandi, George Washington and so on and so on.
Yes, she’s very pretty and it’s very nice that she’s adopted children, but worthy of being idolized…. she’s got a long way to go.

that was a lovely poem. i’m sure it will help MF and her family cope with the loss and accept that her MIL is now in a better place.
MF - my prayers are with you and your family. comfort yourselves with all the wonderful times you had with her.
Thanks Jared!!!! :D She’s practically luminescent. Even in pictures she exudes such positive energy.
Angie is truly an admirable lady. What she and Brad are doing to help the less fortunate is truly inspirational. I, for one, have started supporting finacially the causes they advocate.
Thank you JJ for the posting the lovely pictures.
“Everybody in this room is very well-educated”?? – Yeah, except for you Angie… You didn’t even finish high school! For the sake of honesty and decency let’s face facts, if she weren’t beautiful and Jon Voight’s daughter she’d be in skid row right now… I’m neither a “hater” nor am I a fan, but I do hate hypocrisy.
195 heather : 09/27/2007 at 6:51 pm ,Oh Heather you are really full of it!Nice try though,but the little “put downs” in your post are a dead give away.You just don’t like Angelina so you will ALWAYS find fault with anything she does.BTW Angelina IS a role model,like it or not!She is a remarkable woman who has turned her life around for the better.Next time you might want to let-up on the insults,maybe you would be more convincing with your “concerns.”:lol:
Love Angie, Love Brad. Their kids are very lucky! They have fantastic parents! It is wonderful to see them get involve! They are talented beyond the acting realm.
No one like them!
One more comment Brad’s family should be proud! Angie’s dad —well lets not go there.
199 Annie : 09/27/2007 at 7:08 pm ,She graduated at 16!This information has been documented in her biography.
I totally agree with #195 Heather - Angelina’s humanitarian work and adoption of underprivileged kids is commendable, but anybody that looks to her as a role model is delusional. She’s a rich and beautiful Hollywood star and is in a relationship with another beautiful Hollywood star. I think people just wish they WERE HER and they’re confusing that with “role models”. Grow up America! Try to concentrate on making something of yourselves instead of living in a fantasy world and dreaming of being Angelina. Totally pathetic!
Love Brad and Angelina and their whole family, I pray they tie the knot soon!!!!!!!!!!!!!!Smart and Beautiful Couple!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! #1
I agree with all the Angelina fans. I can’t say it better than they can so I’ll just say God Bless.
JJ thanx for sharing this wonderfully moving and intelligent speech. This is why I love Angelina and Brad is turning into an amazing activist as well. Kudos.
“Angelina Jolie still remains publicly cryptic as to how she graduated from high school…” - http://www.ringsurf.com/online/84-angelina_jolie.html
I’m an attorney so until I see high school certificate scan with Angelina’s name on it I’m not going to buy into this “fact”. She doesn’t look nor sound like some sort of genius that could graduate high school two years before the rest of us. And BTW let’s assume for the sake of this argument that she did graduate from high school; again, a high-school certificate does not make one “very well-educated”. I think I’ve devoted enough of my time to this interesting yet inaccurate “conversation”. Peace.
I think it is wonderful to see how much she is willing to speak on behave of those who are less fortunate and need so much. I think some of her fellow actors should listen to her and donate to these causes. God knows they make enough money in one movie to more than likely help these refugees out for a lifetime. Bless you.
behalf*
Love her! She is amazing. Im so proud to be a fan!
I’m sorry but she has stated the obvious! Nothing “outstanding” about her speech at all.
I emjoyed the plenary AJ was on … her compassion was refreshing.
Nice to see her looking happy (& good)

PS. To keep the threads free of hate filled posts hit REPORT ABUSE
Thanks JJ, you are the best. For the record, someone wants to check her highschool record. Go to Los Angeles Unified School District, she graduated from Beverly Hills High School, same year as Lenny Cravatz. She went to Lee Strasberg Film School and also attended NYU majoring in film. She took a few courses unlike Brad who was 2 weeks short of graduating from a journalism degree from University of Missouri.
Anyway, both of them make more $ than me who holds a Masters degree. And of course, they have charity advisors and they are talented and gorgeous.
Jealousy will lead you nowhere.
FAKER!!! and the proof is how she treats Shiloh. When Shiloh grows up, all these emotion faking will be revealed.
Honey give it a rest!You do not know how she treats Shiloh.So stop with the tabloid and gossip crap!
Very touching. AJ is a wonderful speaker on issues she is passionate about. Her stories always makes my heart ache and open my mind up.
Angelina you have a wonderful soul! your fans are all so very proud of you! we will support you forever! God bless you always!
Jealous haters can say what they want, but nothing can change Angelina by being recognized and respected by World leaders .
She’s an amazing, intelligent, compassioante woman ! love her !
195 heather and 204 Annie
—— Another pair of sour grape looser !
We know Angelina was not the only one doing all these good deed, Angelina had said before she is not Mother Teresa of HW. WE all knew it ! don’t need to tell us.
There’s a million way of improving image, hire a PR guru just like Aniston does, she could lazily lie at her mansion sipping margaritas while her Huvane does all the works. Going to the most dangerous area in the world , visiting the poorest countries in this world were not only dangerous but also tiring. Angie doesn’t need to do that . Angie dosen’t need to donate million of dollars to charity org. We knew several actresses including Aniston never give back ,was never grateful to the society who make them a millionairs.
You hate to admit it. Angelina was way above Brad X in every category. Although not bonded legally, but Angelina was more devoted , more committed, more like a wife to Brad Pitt.
WE know haters troll, Truth alway hurt !
Cause Effect blabbered:
“Actually, she is not changing the world. You help one person, a hundred take their place. You need to deal with the cause and not just the effect. I never hear her give any ideas on how we as a citizen of the world can stop the blood shed that is causing the refuge problem in the first place.”
I’m sure you’ve heard the story of the man who was walking along the beach when he sees a child in the distance. The child is reaching down, picking something up and throwing it out into the ocean.
As he gets closer he realizes he’s picking up starfish and throwing them into the water. When asked why, he’s told that if the starfish aren’t put back into water they will die.
“Well, the beach is covered with starfish,” he tells the child, “there are far too many. Throwing a few back won’t make any difference.” The child reaches down, picks up another starfish, throws it into the water and says,
“Made a difference to that one.”
We can’t change everything at once. But, with the support of people like Angie, Brad, and yes - even you and me - we can continue to change lives . . . one at a time. I encourage you to do your part and donate your time or your treasure to a good cause.

LOL, Bill Gates didn’t finished college, he was 2 yrs short of a BS degree, but he end up buiding one of the most successful conglomerate on earth, the richest man on earth, all these accomplishment was achieved when he was in his early thirties. talking of jealousy !
She should wear white often. looks so tall, elegance and shapely.
To Missouri Fan. My thoughts & prayers go out to your family. God Bless.
Brad & Ange are really taking action to do good. Bless them always.
Ange is a tall woman, stands 5′8″.
Actually Bill Gates recently graduated (after almost 30 years). He graduated from HARVARD. Comparing Angelina Jolie to Bill Gates is like comparing Brad Pitt to Hillary Clinton. These are people with real brains. Listen to Angelina speak – she is completely inarticulate – the poor thing can barely put two words together. Poor Brad – got lured in by sex and is now stuck with a loony and 3 kids he never wanted (and the list of adoptees keeps growing…) Oh and I love JJ and I know he loves Brangelina for some reason – but he would never delete a comment just because it isn’t drooling with love and compassion for them.
ANGIE has a body of a Model!

Why would you presume that people here have no knowledge of these people? I’m sure everyone here is past the 6th grade. Your condescending post is rather amusing. It’s also amusing that you consider these people heroes or role models since almost everyone of them had their own very serious issues. While I admre what many of them accomplished, I personally don’t consider any of them heroes except maybe one or two. Hell, I even worked with two of them in my international relief days.
But the point is that no one has to be perfect or a hero to contribute of themselves to effect change. Why is it that you insist that Ms. Jolie must be perfect for her to be respected for her many positive activities?
I’m afraid that’s the problem with posters who cannot say one decent thing about this young woman who has evidenced an incredible devotion to helping others. I couldn’t care less about youthful indiscretions and I don’t know any serious person of substance who does either. Her personal and family life is her business. Nothing could be tackier than commenting on it.
Not having a bachelor or master degree doesn’t make one uneducated. Angie and Brad are not scholars….we get that!! She cannot give a speech like Hillary Clinton or Bill Gates….yeah, i get that as well but you cannot deny that she is very well educated and informed about the subject that she is passionate about - refugees and children. Based on their speech, at least you know what they talked about come from their heart, not from a professional speech writer. As Colin Powell said, for Angelina it is not about saving the world but saving the kids.
Don’t condemn people for the good that they are trying to do….try to consider what you can contribute as well as a person….whether you are a well educated person or not. Would you like them more if they act more like the Beckhams??
beautiful woman inside and out!
213 Annie : 09/27/2007 at 7:50 pm
I’m an attorney so until I see high school certificate ….
—————————
We seem to be repeating ourselves, Ms Annie. So I’ll take the opportunity to repeat myself.
Ms. Jolie attended classes at NYU. Universities, especially universities difficult to get into like NYU, require proof of high school graduation or completion for attendance.
It may not be proof beyond a reasonable doubt but, barring some unique exception, it is certainly circumstantial evidence. And you know what the jury instructions say about circumstantial evidence.
And for those criticizing Ms Jolie’s efforts to educate hundreds of thousands of refugee children (incredible as that criticism is), building a village, its infrastructure, businesses and schools in Cambodia, support and lobbying for legislation to afford refugee children due process and legal assistance in the U.S., other schools and medical facilities, as well as the other basic life sustaining support systems she has contributed to over the years, I am just not sure what the criticism is about. All these efforts mentioned form the basis for building a future for people in different parts of the world. Different people need different support.
Perhaps those who are so critical should do research themselves and learn what exactly she has been doing all these years: in Cambodia, here in the US with Native Americans and refugee children in the camps in Arizona and elsewhere, in Africa, and elsewhere. Try to avoid the nonfacts of the tabloids and gossip sites which have a need to turn it all into sleaze. Read. Educate yourselves. You’ll learn about so much more than just Ms. Jolie. Maybe you’ll get an idea or two about how you, too, can make a difference.
Angelina is the fakest ***** and worst actress walking the earth.
Angelina fans are the dumbest people for buying into her fake saint act. angelina releases as much bad karma into the world, just as much as the good karma that her fans are dumb enough to believe she releases. Good deeds can’t cover up or wash away a evil soul.

Actually Bill Gates recently graduated (after almost 30 years). He graduated from HARVARD.
—————————————-
Sweetie, I don’t want to take too much away from Bill Gates cause he did a little better on his SATs than I did and he does like to brag about that score. But he didn’t graduate from Harvard. Yes, he got in and spent two years before droping out and I give him credit for that but I believe his degree was only honorary. He spoke at this year’s commencement.
Otherwise that would have been one of the longest ass deferrals I ever heard of.
Why aren’t people bitching that it took so long for Gates to start any charitable endeavors. He’s been very wealthy since his 20s and he only started at 40?

Hypocrisy: “insincerity by virtue of pretending to have qualities or beliefs that you do not really have.”
This does not define Angelina Jolie, and that has been a proven fact for many years. Why a fact? Just do some serious and open- minded research. Most “very well-educated” and common people in the WORLD believe what she is doing a REMARKABLE and serioius work as a UN Embassador.
Your statement is assumption.
Assumption
“1.The act of taking to or upon oneself
2. The act of taking possession or asserting a claim
3. The act of taking for granted
4. Something taken for granted or accepted as true without proof; a supposition
5. Presumption; arrogance.”
she is such an inspiration! Her humanitarian work creates so much hope to refugees all around the world.

I am a rocket scientist and I felt that Angie sounded very educated. You on the other hand sounded jealous and conceited. Being educated or well-educated for the matter is not defined by having a certain school certificate or holding a certain school degree.Open up your mind. It’s a pity that all your education doesn’t bring you beyond the narrow-mindedness reflected in your posters. Don’t get hung-up by a certain sentence in Angie’s speech. What do you want her to say that most of the people in the room is not educated ? Then she will sound as conceited as you.
Hey Annie: Remind yourself of your declaration:
“I’m an attorney so until I see high school certificate scan with Angelina’s name on it I’m not going to buy into this “fact”. She doesn’t look nor sound like some sort of genius that could graduate high school two years before the rest of us. And BTW let’s assume for the sake of this argument that she did graduate from high school; again, a high-school certificate does not make one “very well-educated”. I think I’ve devoted enough of my time to this interesting yet inaccurate “conversation”. Peace.
Just reading your written paragraph tells me you’re a hypocrite! An Attorney doesn’t spell erroneously and put sentences in a grammatically incorrect manner.
Angelina is a human being well deserved of high respect and adulattion from her fans, so here’s what I’ll tell you, speaking of bragging about your title, don’t come here telling us you are an Attorney and writing erroneously, because the fact of the matter is that, an Attorney should base their reasoning and declarations based on FACTS, not just by argumentative debate or reasoning power which politicians do. To re-phrase your sentences: I’m an Attorney, comma, so, comma, until I see A, you missed A, high school certificate scanned, with double N and ED, with Angelina’s name on it, comma again, I am not going to buy into this “fact. period first then ” She doesn’t look, comma, nor??? what is nor? Is that now an attorney’s way of saying NEITHER in a slang manner? Aren’t Attorney’s supposed to always be grammatically correct and FACTUAL when they speak, write and do a debate?
You poor thing, you have to play the role of an Attorney to help lift yourself and brag about yourself, wow, you are indeed THE Attorney for the National Ledger’s school of the dumbs. Lay off Ms. Angelina Jolie, who has such a good heart, before you begin to have another panic and anxiety attack.
that was so moving- she is just such a beautiful person and speaks with such passion and emotion you cant help to reflect, not everyone can do that.
LOVE BAMPZS
I am baffled. Just utterly baffled at the negative response this woman and this family receive.
I mean she could be doing worse things than speaking at press conferences held by former presidents of the United States. She could be doing nothing at all.
One doesn’t have to be a scholar to see that the world is in shambles and it also doesn’t take a scholar to open a book, read a newspaper, make phone calls, turn on a television to become informed about the global community that we are all part of. It doesn’t take a genius to be informed…it takes time and dedication. Reading is something we (the people on this site) can all do. So, why is it so hard to imagine that Angelina can read as well? I mean she has to read scripts, right? Or maybe some of you will respond by saying, “she probably has people to do that.” In any case I won’t even take the time out to retort, just seems silly and you and I both see that.
I just don’t understand why there is so much backlash? I mean what do you have to say about Britney Spears, or Lindsay Lohan, or the countless number of people with the abilities to help themselves and the world but don’t? It’s interesting that Angelina’s humanitarian work or “fake emotions” can garnish well over 200 comments, Britney (train wreck) Spears can only manage a measly 50 or so comments.
It is funny to me that an attorney, and “humanitarians” and the whole lot of highly “intelligent” and “educated” people on this site find the time to criticize Angelina. How do you have the time?
I’m not saying I’m better than any of you. After all here I am right writing a response. But I’ve never claimed to be an attorney or devoted humanitarian. The fact is I’m going to college and not working so I have plenty of time to dilly dally on the internet responding to gossip blogs about people I don’t know in real life…
Angelina’s past is always brought up in these threads. How her turn around was so quick that it must’ve not been genuine. I am at this moment in time 23 years old, it is my hope that when I’m in my 30’s I will have changed, that I have in some capacity grown as a human being. I would also hope and imagine that after taking responsibility for a child on my own accord that my heart would open up and that things, like vials of blood worn in necklaces, being wild, playing with guns and knives won’t seem as important as the child sitting in front of me.
Everyone is quick to judge. They live their lives in a way that makes it easy for us to judge them. The truth is if cameras and publicity were turned around on us we would not have any idea as to how to manage, at least I know for sure I wouldn’t.
So please can’t we just stop the woman on woman violence and lift each other up instead of putting each other down.
quiet no more, i’m so agree with you (ps you sound very mature for a 23 years old)
IF JOLIE CRYS I CRY TOO. IN REALITY I CAN’T SEE ANYBODY CRYING, PARTICULY ANGIE.
SHE IS BEYOND FAKE.
LET’S SEE HOW LONG BEFORE THIS POST IS DELETED SINCE I’M NOT WORSHIPING THIS TRASH.
TO 244 09/28/2007 01:34 am
ENGLISH ISN’T MY FIRST LANGUAGE AND YOU SAID ALL THAT I’M NOT ABLE TO SAY, IN ENGLISH, TO DEFEND ANGIE.
Can we please get over the celebrity-thing here and focus on the story she had to tell? THAT KID who sells tissues is the true hero in this, and yes angie’s doing a great thing by sharing this story with others….but this should not be about her, it should be about the cause she’s supporting. Sometimes i wonder how much good celebrities do by promoting causes like this. Sure, it gets more publicity that way but what good does it do if all we’re focusing on is how good the celebrity is for promoting the cause instead o FOCUSING ON THE ISSUE ITSELF? I’m not questioning angie’s motives, it is clear to me that she really cares and wants to help but sometimes i wonder if she is really acconplishing what she wants to accomplish or just creating this cult-worshiping around her personality…
Hello sa Lahat JP true fans!
Beauty and Brains rolled into one!Amazing,amazing couple!
She’s wearing the same ring from CGI!
I’ve read from Jjb forum.one of the poster said/Lilmonday that the 2 linked rings signify a union bet. 2 people,bigger ring (Brad) smaller ring {Angie} Just the word “union” if so true hayyyy lalo ako kinikilig!My heart goes boom boom boom!hehehe!
BEAUTIFUL RINGs and really looks expensive!
Just watched CGI forum,both are very good public speakers esp. Angie!
I was moved and teary eyed about the sad story told by Angie,it’s only short but it hit me straight from the heart.How i wish,all the sufferings in the world ENDS and all just be Happy!
Thank you all for the links…
GOD BLESS us ALL
This woman is incredible. I didn’t like her in her movies but I love her in real life. She gives so much time to people who need attention and care. She is an angel and I wish her all the best. She deserves the best in life. Amy, maybe actresse can cry on demand, but you can see that Angelina really cares. She even goes to Iraq….that’s not faking. That’s caring. I think other hollywooders should be less self-centered and more giving.
annie: where did you BUY your J.D? It belongs in the toilet…Please contact W.Bush & his iniquitous legions to get your money back… You, obviously, have been left behind in your education… Even though Angelina is not conferred any degree, she has been advanced in her education. The veracity of her education manifests from her authentic quest for learning and thus in itself transcends actions to facilitate attainable & sustainable changes… Angelina leads a perspicacious life and existence… you can also… choose!
She is an amazing person! I cried after watching the video. It is a very touching story and only a heartless person would not feel a bit sad…actress or not. It is shocking to me to know that something like this exist in this world. I’m glad that Angelina is raising the awareness about this problem. I hope that more people will be move by her story so much that we would take action in making this world a better place.
God bless Angelina and her family. Peace to all!
WOW Her legs are sexy. I remember once she won a competion for it . But af t er she lost a lot weight she got thin and they shrinked got too much veins on them but now they back . Long lean nicely crafted. Bring it on angie.

There are so many more humans who are truly deserving of those titles of “Hero”, “Idol” and “Role Model” in this world…Read, learn, think for yourselves…..Find out who Mahatma Gandi was, read the words of the Dali Lama, learn about the public works of Eleanor Roosevelt, check out Brooke Astor, Golda Meir, even Boadicea if your interested in strong women who lead their people and devoted their lives to others…Nelson Mandela, John F. Kennedy, Robert Kennedy, Mary Queen of Scots, Indira Ghandi, George Washington and so on and so on.

Why would you presume that people here have no knowledge of these people? I’m sure everyone here is past the 6th grade. Your condescending post is rather amusing. It’s also amusing that you consider these people heroes or role models since almost everyone of them had their own very serious issues. While I admre what many of them accomplished, I personally don’t consider any of them heroes except maybe one or two. Hell, I even worked with two of them in my international relief days.
But the point is that no one has to be perfect or a hero to contribute of themselves to effect change. Why is it that you insist that Ms. Jolie must be perfect for her to be respected for her many positive activities?
I’m afraid that’s the problem with posters who cannot say one decent thing about this young woman who has evidenced an incredible devotion to helping others. I couldn’t care less about youthful indiscretions and I don’t know any serious person of substance who does either. Her personal and family life is her business. Nothing could be tackier than commenting on it.
=============================
Most of those ‘heroes’ were/are professional politicians. while Angie makes a living as an actress.
Look at all her contemporary actors in HW, people with fame, power and money, what have they done to help others? So, yes, Angie is definitely a role model and hero.
thank you Trixi!
Why is it that people get sooooo uncomfortable when other human beings try to do good in the world.The criticism that Angelina gets reminds me of all the mean remarks Princess Diana use to get when she wanted to help the the less fortunate.Angelina seems like a very sensitive young lady that has found her calling in life.Those of you who speak malice of her should check yourselves when was the last time you thought of someone else besides yourself.That she is seeking publisity i truly doubt that.She cuold be putting gas in her car & the paparazzi would surround her,She would front page news.So to thimk the she would take time out of her life to travel to third world countries & come back to the states to get attention for them to help those poor souls out ther, just to get attention for herself i think not.
soleil - have u recently been studying 4 ur SATs? :)
She is such an amazing woman. That story makes me cry as well. How can we help?
This woman is so fake. I cant stand her. Reconciliation?? Haha! Why don’t you go and reconcile with your own father before you talk about these things?? The poor man has not seen his grandkids. Just because he used the wrong words in describing you doesn’t mean that he doesnt deserve a chance.
I hated when she was laughing in the middle of the speech. Her story was nonsense, someone else must have told it to her.
Please IGNORE all the judgemental and envious IGNORAMUS :)
What did you do to her?
