Join Angelina Jolie in Protest

Angelina Jolie causes quite the scene on the Los Angeles set of her new movie The Changeling on Monday. She protested with about 400 extras!

Just this past weekend, Angie and Brad Pitt heated up the red carpet at the London premiere of Beowulf.

“It’s so, so nice to see all these fans here, it always is,” the 32-year-old actress told reporters at the premiere. “I haven’t been here for a little bit. I lived here for a few years, and I do plan to come back more often.”

To her roles as Hollywood actress, UN goodwill ambassador and mother, Angelina Jolie can now add another - writer for the Economist.

The high-minded economic and political weekly has secured a sprinkling of stardust for The World in 2008, which is published tomorrow and contains predictions for next year.

Jolie’s piece on accountability for the atrocities in Dakar sits alongside contributions from several presidents, an exiled god-king, the head of the United Nations and other political heavyweights.

Her photo byline describes her as a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees.

The annual spin-off to the Economist retails for £4.95 and covers topics ranging from global warming to the politics of Latin America.

Now in its 22nd year, the publication is sold internationally and will remain on news-stand shelves all year.

The field of high-profile contributors includes French president Nicolas Sarkozy, Mexican president Felipe Calderón, the Dalai Lama, New York mayor Michael Bloomberg, speaker of the US House of Representatives Nancy Pelosi, and Korean-born UN secretary-general Ban Ki-moon.

The Economist has also made audio interviews with the authors available to download as podcasts, available from http://www.economist.com/theworldin.

Great news!

i cant believe she’s only 32! it almost feels as if she’s been around for a very long time. also, she’s accomplished a lot for this young age. gotta love her.

HOW COME YOU GUYS ALWAYS WORRY ABOUT HER NOT GETTING ENOUGH SLEEP?
THERE IS MILLIONS OF PEOPLE WHO HAVE TO TRAVEL ON BUSINESS EVEN IN DIFFERENT TIME ZONES - NO PROBLEM
WHEN YOU GO IN BUSINESS CLASS YOU FIND A NICE BED TO RELAX AND ALL THE SERVICE YOU CAN IMAGINE
MS JOLIE CERTAINLY TRAVELS EVEN MORE COMFORTABLE, SO WHAT IS SO FANTASTIC OF BEING IN LONDON ON MONDAY AND IN LA ON TUESDAY?
WHY DO YOU THINK IT IS SO EXCEPTIONAL TO LOOK NICE AND PROFESSIONAL ON EVERY OCCASION?
AS A PROFESSIONAL YOU HAVE TO LOOK THE PART AND TRUST ME, IT’ NO BIG DEAL TO GET UP IN THE MORNING, GET THE CHILDREN READY AND THEN PREPARE TO LOOK THE PART FOR A SUCCESSFUL BUSINESS DAY
THERE IS NO STROLLING AROUND IN SWEATPANTS AND UNWASHED HAIR LIKE MOST AMERICAN HOUSEWIVES TEND TO RUN AROUND EVERY DAY
YOU GUYS ALWAYS KEEP SAYING SHE NEEDS TO EAT MORE; SHE SHOULD HAVE A BURGER
IS BURGER THE ONLY FOOD YOU GUYS IN THE STATES KNOW AND EAT?
BECAUSE YOU EAT ALL THAT CRAP 75% OF THE POPULATION IS OVERWEIGHT NOT SAY OBESE
EVER THOUGHT OF THAT?
SHE ACTS LIKE A PROFESSIONAL BUSINESS WOMAN, EATS HEALTHY FOOD, IS A NORMAL CLOTH SIZE, GOES TO WORK REGULARILY AND DRESSES HER CHILDREN IN SIMPLE AND PLAIN COLORED CLOTHES LIKE EVERYONE WITH A LITTLE STYLE DOES

AND EVERYONE ON THIS SITE ALREADY THINKS SHE IS SUPERWOMAN

HELLO, WAKE UP - THE SUBURBIAN CRUMPY JOGGING SUITS AND HAMBURGERS WAY OF LIFE IS NOT THE WAY OF LIFE MOST EDUCATED PEOPLE WITH CHILDREN AND A JOB LIVE

NO OFFENCE; I AM NEITHER A LOVER OR A HATER OF THESE TWO PEOPLE WHO SEEM TO ME COMPLETELY NORMAL
I JUST WANTED TO SET THE PERSPECTIVE OF YOU WORHIPPERS RIGHT
BECAUSE WHAT YOU WORSHIP IS HARD WORK, CLASS, STYLE AND APFROPRIATE BEHAHVIOR

AND THIS SHOULD APPLY TO MORE PEOPLE NOT ONLY ACTORS
SO WHY DON’T YOU GUYS HAVE A LITTLE REFLECTION ON LIFE IN GENERAL

Angelina is simply AMAZIN’!!!!

A nice article from The Post & Courier of Charleston

Photos, popcorn for Brad, Angie

Monday, November 12, 2007

IT HAS now become so common to see Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt photographed with their brood in tow, that when the couple appear alone together, it just doesn’t seem right to some. But young cohabitants need time to themselves, yes? So, the other night at the premiere of Angie’s 3-D, semi-animated mythological epic, “Beowulf,” they arrived in all their glory, just the two of them. The Golden Boy and Mother Earth with a hot twist seemed fine, unfettered for the moment from the responsibilities of parenthood and global nurturing.

As soon as the world’s most-gossiped-about actors stepped from their eco-friendly Prius, studio PR types immediately produced the boys who appear in the movie, Tyler Steelman and Randy Shelly. There was a lightning fast photo op.

The glamour pair then strode down the red carpet outside the Westwood Village Theater. It was fast. One photographer complained, “It’s not fair. We do understand, they are abused so much, but we are not the paparazzi!” Brad left Angelina to talk with the line of reporters (it’s her movie, after all) and when the photogs begged him, “Please stop. We don’t have video. We’re still,” the actor waved and said, “I don’t have time.”

Inside the theater, Mr. Pitt was more accommodating to fans with their digital cameras — though surely he knows in this age of Internet, people are not taking these shots home to paste into a scrapbook. Nobody’s really a “fan” anymore; everything’s for sale or for fame.

Brad and Angie were in a young-couple-on-a-first-date mode. They looked deeply into each other’s eyes over the popcorn. Well, nothing like a lot of butter to help busy parents forget all that diaper changing.

Everybody received 3-D glasses, essential to watch the movie.

The audience seemed blown away by the Robert Zemeckis film. Helen Mirren said, “It was savage but absolutely beautiful. Sad but true to the era. I loved it. It’s the first thing I’ve ever seen in 3-D!”

Ah, but it wouldn’t be a night in Hollywood without a touch of tension. Warren Beatty and Annette Bening were there, and at one point inside the theater, Warren just stood aside to watch the frenzy around Brad and Angie. A reporter leaned in and said, “Warren, this must take you back. I bet you can empathize with them, what it was like to be the center of the crush.” Wrong approach! Warren said, with unmistakable irritation, “What it was like? Oh, yes, sure!” And then he turned his back on the scribe. Monsieur is still the greatest star!

Amazing! She is a hard working woman - flying for hours for a premiere then back to work and the 4 (!) kids!

I wish her all the energy she needs to master all these demands and still can keep herself beautiful outside and inside.

Thanks for the thread JJ. The hardworking JoliePitts.I am taking my 15 year old son to see Beowulf on Saturday. He is a sophomore in high school and Beowulf is one of his reading assignments for English
==========================================================

I laughed reading this because a couple of weeks ago I posted that this movie was going to change a lot of school kids attitude upon hearing the word Beowulf. In my day it was met with loud groaning and much complaining. The kids from now forward will have a completely different attitude. They’ll be saying awright, cool movie day in class. Do you think they’ll be able to show it to high school kids? All the violence? It has an R rating doesn’t it? So, no one under 17? I guess they can’t show it in school without getting parental permission. But the kids studying it will be able to rent it.
You won’t get the 3-D effects from a rental though, will you? Can you watch TV with glasses and make it 3-D? It will be nothing like watching it in an IMAX theater though.

But anyway, this will give ole Beowulf a whole new reputation to the next generation of kids studying the poem. Just like Angelina is going to completely change the image of Grendel’s mother. In the poem she is a withered hag of a creature. Nothing like our sexy Angelina at all! School kids will need to make note of that, it will probably be one of those trick questions on the test to make sure you read the material instead of just watching the movie! I always hated when teachers did that to you.

I dunno why people from the UK & US media are making a big deal out of a rip pants. They do not even have proof/picture of the rip. And stepping on gum? That’s so normal, it happens to everyone who walks on the street unless we will be like Singapore & ban gum altogether. Imagine if someone’s walking in the streets of Paris, Rome or Beijing…I cannot fanthom what are our shoes going to encounter with in these cities.

>>>>>>>>>>>>

Well, in Rome or Paris, its dog poop (Those sophisticated romans and Parisiens don’t seem to want to use a plastic bag or something)

In beijing - might have changed because of the olympics preparation, but pre olympics preparation, you’d have to watch out for spit.

:LOL:

Stepping in gum? It is one of my major pet peeves. Ask my kids what was most likely to get them a new one ripped but good and they’ll tell you it’s spitting out their gum! I was an absolute monster about it.

I so hate stepping in gum myself that I made sure my kids were well trained that it was a heinous, unforgivable sin. I lectured that it was selfish to make the next person who came along scrape their shoe for 15 minutes because my kids were too lazy and selfish and irresponsible and thoughtless of their fellow man to take 10 seconds to spit their gum into a trash can. No trash can nearby? Then you wrap the gum in paper and stick it into your pocket or purse until you come to a trash can. No excuses!

My kids joke to this day they would feel less guilty kicking a puppy than spitting gum in the street.

Thank You @ 11/13/2007 at 4:18 am

Yes this is exactly why she will always be in demand. A 12 hour flight, 8 hour time difference and here she is back at work today in LA after being in London just last nite supporting one of her films. Angie and Brad must have gone straight to the airport from the premiere. She is a wonderful example to emulate, does not whine, does not complain, hardworking, and does what she says she will do. She did not hold up production, she knows time is money, that people are very anxious with the stike and its effects on their lives. She did not let the cast and crew down with any diva demands, even though she has to be tired. She is a trooper.
_________________________________________________________

ICAM. Remember she also did not pull any diva behavior and worked in smoke like the rest of the cast during the CA fires.
*******************************************************
ITA!!!! Great posts. :-) And great news about the Economist. Bravo!!!

The silly story about the gum & pants seem so ridiculous when you put it in perspective with her receiving the Freedom Award and having an article printed in The Economist, and in both instances amongst prestigious company.

Anyway…thanks Jared for the new thread and photos. :-) :-)

Thank You @ 11/13/2007 at 4:22 am

Forgot why I came back tonight. Flynetonline also had some photos from today’s shoot.

http://www.flynetonline.com/2007/11/angelina-loves-to-work/#comments

BTW - It was probably Brad’s gum she stepped on. :lol:

Any ideas why she did not attend the Freedom Awards ceremony in NYC???
