OlderAngelina Jolie is 33rd Smartest in Hollywood
Angelina Jolie recently made Entertainment Weekly’s “The 50 Smartest People in Hollywood” list, coming in at #33. She’s one of the youngest actresses to make the cut with 58-year-old Meryl Streep at #6, 45-year-old Jodie Foster at #30, 38-year-old Cate Blanchett at #45, and 28-year-old Sarah Polley at #49. Here’s what EW had to say:
Angelina, 32, is smart because… “she’s discovered the real value of fame. While keeping fanboys happy with films like Beowulf, she uses her celebrity superpowers for good. Continues to travel the globe as a U.N. Goodwill Ambassador, the world media in tow, but this year she put her values on screen, too, delivering one of the best performances of her career as Mariane Pearl, widow of slain journalist Daniel Pearl, in June’s A Mighty Heart.”
Angie also picked up the Good Penmanship Award because “she recently wrote for The Economist, alongside fellow contributors the Dalai Lama and French president Nicolas Sarkozy.”
Topping the “Smartest List” is director/writer/producer Judd Apatow of The 40 Year Old Virgin, Knocked Up and Superbad fame. Click inside for the full list…

Congratulations Cliniqua!
Hi Bampzsters…I didn’t blog all day yesterday and come back to two new threads. You guys have been busy. Thanks to everyone for all the great posts. My daugher had a great birthday party but I am the one tired and wore out. I need to put up the rest of my Christmas decorations today. Will check back later…God bless the Jolie-Pitts!
I X were on this list, the trolls would be bragging about how legitmate it is and what an honor. But Since Angie is on it, they are saying it doesn’t mean anything.
That’s so typical.

Why wasn’t she on all these lists before Brad? Brad should dump her ASAP. Brad is too good for her. She is so smart at using him to get here. Brad, please dump her before the award seasons, she can go to awards alone. oh, no, she will not be alone. she will take her brother, they will make out on the red carpet. she will use any chance to get attention.
Notice since the revelation about Zahara, we haven’t really seen them. Is that what it took - this humiliating publicity for the child to realize that maybe they are pushing it a bit?
~~~~
Zahara would be dead all ready for 2 and 1/2 years if not for her Mommy,Angelina! and her Daddy!. Why don’t the tabloids focus on that — because they can’t have 2″ headlines about how AJ suffers or AJ is bad if they report the truth. Angelina and Brad aren’t responsible for the vile tabloid press. People like you haters are. If you would reject this form of intrusive press they would shrivel up and die. The people who hate Angelina fuel the constant cover headlines and fuel press going to Africa to “investigate” and then they print stories about a baby. Disgusting!!! This woman lied before in 2005 so why should we believe her now. Also, we weren’t seeing the Jolie-Pitts before that story either. As soon as they got back to L.A. they went to ground. The only photos we’ve seen are fan picture of AJ and Maddox shopping.

I agree, she sure is smart for knowing how to spin the pity party.
=====================
Me too. she is so smart by spending her millions on her plastic surgery and nose jobs. Oh and paying men to date her and get dumped after.
We always knew our Angie is bright, plus she is sweet and has a huge heart. We love her.

The fact that X keeps getting dumped and is spending her nights alone should tell everyone that she is the one with the problem, not Brad, and certainly not Angie.
Of course, X and her fans will never admit that because they are all the types who thrive off playing the blame game. Their problems are never their own.
Brad Pitt is going to announce their break-up on Monday. I can’t wait. He should get rid of this evil woman. Let her to screw up other man or woman.
Ignore me. I am a moron! You know me as ritzy!
Im naming my first born son, Tristan

I think Nicole got cut off from her children, and there’s nothing she can do about it. I am also sure that when they rarely do get to visit her, there is a Scientology rep there always to be sure that she doesn’t do or say anything to them they feel is subversive.
When Tom called Nicole to congratulate her on her Oscar win, I am sure that was done because he knew the world was looking and expecting him to do that.
If you do some reading and checking about Scientology, the outer levels of it are just a bit “out there”, but as you read further into it, the deeper levels are something right out of the Twilight Zone.
All this may be the reason Nicole is looking more and more ragged and fragile these days. It has to be killing her inside.
——————————–
I agree. I’m sure Nicole loves her children. And I’m pretty sure Tom cut her off from the children so that the children wont have “outside” (non scientology) influence from their mother.
As to why Nicole looks so ragged, I have a feeling she’s trying to get pregnant. For her age, she may be seeing an IVF doc who might have prescribed medication to stimulate her eggs production. Sometimes, medication can make a person looks bloated, or nausciated.

And when that deadline comes and goes, will you turn into a pumpkin?
The evil here is me. Yes, I admit, I am onepathetic son of a *****!
