Angelina Jolie is 33rd Smartest in Hollywood

Angelina 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…

Do we really need a thread for this? I know you are trying to cater to some fans, Jared but this is bit pointless.

LMAO @ doesn't @ 12/01/2007 at 8:45 am

IT WAS A TABLOID LIE NOW WE KNOW HOW SMART YOU ARE BUYING AND BELIEVING TABLOIDS

First page? Can’t believe it. Congratulations Angie! I’m so disappointed that Brad is not among them. I wonder what their yardstick is. Some of the people on the list doesn’t deserve it, though.

GOOD NIGHT BAMPZS FANS!!!Enjoy this thread. More good news coming for our Angie.

Tini,

Sarah Polley might be younger. But she is #49 and Angelina is #33 on the list. :-)

Thanks for posting Cliniqua’s first article link from the last thread! :smile:

REPOSTING AGAIN

Hey, LMAO @ 12/01/2007 at 8:51 am

LMAO, you are too much. Get YOUR facts straight. Click the link to the interview with Zahara’s mother. The tabloids said she wants her back - not true. Conception horror - true.

You are about as “smart” as Angelina. LOL

http://www.smh.com.au/news/world/jolies-daughter-conceived-through-rape-mother/2007/11/21/1195321818018.html

WELL that should be too hard..I thought she would even come ahead of 1..Brad will proabaly be at the negative end of infinity…being smart in hollywood must be quite something..ahahhahaha ..I guess they should have a whole new category for p-us-sy smart…that could teach me a few things!!

GET it straight @ 12/01/2007 at 9:08 am

Doesn’t

Get your facts straight. It was due to tabloid writers looking to boost sales from bitter miserable women like yourself to look for this story just like all their other bullshit stories. They went looking for this woman to start up a hornets nest. We hadn’t seen the kids since they have been in LA not because of this story. If you are looking to pass judgement then look no futher then the writers of in touch magazine who proved that a child concieved through rape means nothing to them but dollar signs.

ZAHARA’S REAL MOTHER IS DEAD.

doesn’t…. @ 12/01/2007 at 8:38 am
Now you are the one showing your stupidity PLUS hatred and/or jealousy. Putting the blame on Angie because she adopted a child that was concieved in a horrible way, YET this child would have died if it were not for Angie and Brad. Would you have preferred this child to have died?? Apparently the good Lord said, ” no, it’s not your time yet Zahara.”
It’s the media and the paps who wants to mar the good that the J-P’s are doing. And for what reason?? GREED! They don’t give a rat’s a-s-s about the consequences of what they disclosed, so long as they get money. Angie and Brad would never disclose this info, EVEN IF they knew, which I truly doubt. This was being uncovered because the adoptive parents are powerly famous! If I were the J-P’s I would sue all these morons who leak this crap out. Think before you pound on the keyboard.

Go Angie…it is well deserved.

Hey, LMAO @ 12/01/2007 at 8:51 am

You and “doesn’t” need to do your homework. You’re a few threads too late. This has been discussed to death. Don’t bring us regurgitated garbage.
