Angelina Jolie Mingles With the Troops

Thanks

Good Girl Ang, stay mum when asked ridiculous questions while in IRAQ of all places!

Jesus f****** Christ CNN. And that’s why you’re better than Fox, but not the best.

Thank God for Anderson Cooper.

If she really wants peopleand her fan focus on Refugee,she should whether deny pregnancy or confirme it.just look at yourself,no one of you is actually listening to her,you are watching whether there is bump or not.when her fans are like this,what can we expect from haters.

Is it that much important whether she is pregnant or not?even more than people’s lives?

btw she is a woman with good heart and I really respect that.

well well well, since when is JJ posting reeal stories from real sources?

Sorry JJ, I was furious at you.

Angelina was keeping it REAL in response to the almost question. people have freakling lost their minds.

UN Fundraiser Draws Celebs, Questions

Feb 7 04:19 AM US/Eastern
By JOHN HEILPRIN
Associated Press Writer

UNITED NATIONS (AP) - Madonna, Chris Rock and dozens of other celebrities raised $3.7 million Wednesday night at a star-studded benefit at the United Nations to help poor and sick children around the world.
The $2,500-a-plate dinner and live auction hosted by Rock was an unusual blend of charity and commercial promotion for the U.N. and made some of its officials, including Secretary-General Ban Ki-Moon, uneasy.

Gucci, which paid the costs, pegged the event to the Friday opening of its Manhattan flagship store on Fifth Avenue and put its logo and UNICEF’s behind the walkway where celebrities were photographed.

The United Nations Children’s Fund relies on $1 billion in private sector donations for its $3.5 billion global budget, but the U.N. had never before granted permission to a company to erect tents on the north lawn of the U.N. for such a lavish event with a commercial tie- in.

The red-carpet reception drew stars such as Drew Barrymore, Demi Moore and Ashton Kutcher, Amy Adams, Brooke Shields, Salma Hayek, Djimon Hounsou, Dita Von Teese and UNICEF Ambassadors Tea Leoni and Lucy Liu, followed by a cocktail party with the likes of Donald Trump and media mogul Barry Diller.

Celebrities paid $2,500 to $10,000 each to dine on grappa-cured salmon, wild striped bass, tart of goat cheese, foraged mushrooms, truffled mashed potatoes and sticky toffee pudding with creme fraiche. Madonna played videos of Malawi and introduced children from the southern African country. Rihanna, Timbaland and Alicia Keys played music afterward.

he said.

Tom Cruise bid $100,000 for a sports package that included the privilege of hanging out at Yankee Stadium with Alex Rodriguez and a private hour playing soccer with David Beckham, but lost out to a bidder who ponied up $350,000.

“It was an extraordinary evening. The whole evening was quite moving,” Cruise told The Associated Press, accompanied by his wife, Katie Holmes, who agreed. Cruise called the United Nations “an absolute necessity” because of the staff who dedicate their lives to building peace.

A trip to Paris with a tour of a vineyard and lunch with Francois- Henri Pinault and Hayek went for $120,000. The priciest auction item was a $600,000 winning bid to tour with Madonna and take a dance class with her and Gwyneth Paltrow.

Organizers said the proceeds would be collected by the Gucci Foundation, a registered charity, and split among Raising Malawi, an advocacy group that operates under The Kabbalah Centre International, and the U.S. Fund for UNICEF, which supports the United Nations Children’s Fund.

Security was tight and few reporters were allowed inside the dinner.

Madonna has tried to help Malawi orphans since she and her husband, Guy Ritchie began raising a Malawian boy they want to adopt. Rights groups questioned her actions since she took him from an orphanage in 2006 at the age of 1. According to UNICEF, HIV/AIDS affects almost 1 million people in Malawi, including 83,000 children, and half of the country’s 1 million orphans have lost one or both parents to AIDS.

“I’ve earned a reputation for many things: pushing the envelope, for being a provocateur, for never taking no for an answer. For endlessly reinventing myself, for being a cult member, a kidnapper. For being ambitious, outrageous and irreverent. And for never settling for second best,” Madonna told the dinner.

“But I don’t just want you to write me a check. I’m more interested in your heart. I want to take you on that journey with me tonight. I want you to feel as inspired as I do right now,” she said. “Yes, I want to raise Malawi. But if I can do that—if we can do that—then the sky’s the limit.”

She’s such a bore. This is coming from a woman that just loved the attention when she was dry humping Billy Bob Thornton on the red carpet. SHe’s not fooling anyone at this point. Blah blah blah. You’ll never convince me that celebrities don’t start out wanting the attention more than anything. And you’ll never convince me that Angelina wouldn’t be upset if the paparazzi ever decided not the care anymore.

I love to hate celebrities. I’m thankful for these sites because they constantly remind me that the whole scene is a joke and they are constantly embarrassing themselves.

I do wish more “news” station would not try to bring gossip into “news”.

Miranda, try to stick to the present. I know it is hard but people seem to get stuck in the past. not learning from it but just bringing it up over and over again with no clear purpose

She can never win with people who don’t like her, so why should she want to appease all your “worries”?
Call her a famewh@!* all you want, but you certainly are able to discuss real and relevant issues because of her.
If she talks about her pregnancy, she overshadows the issues.
If she doesn’t, she’s being coy.
Admit it haters, you’re just as obsessed with her as we fans are.

What an amazing person you are!! Such beautiful inside and out. We all love you Angie and support you. GOD BLESS YOU AND YOUR FAMILY!! You are trully an inspiration to all.

angie is so smart and well informed about the issues,you go girl,keep making us proud

MIRANDA @ 02/07/2008 at 1:56 pm

Miranda get a life. You’re not a fan but you’re the first one posting on the thread of a person you hate. Just admit that you hate it that Angelina is well respected and admired for what she’s doing concerning the refugees. Get lost!!

i love her more! God will bless her always!

Miranda - STFU you ignorant fool.

From last thread

OT, SKIP IF NOT INTERESTED.
Speaking of strong women, did you guys watch GMA this morning? They have this segment called “I dare you”, where each of the anchors has to do something they’re not comfortable doing. This morning was Robin Roberts’ turn, and someone dared her to walk the catwalk, so she did it live at the Isaac Mizrahi (sp) show. She was nervous and everyone was anticipating her coming out, but when she did, she walked out there WITHOUT HER WIG, strutting confidently in all her power and glory! It was one of the most powerful, moving moments I’ve seen, I started crying. No one on the show was expecting her to walk out bald, and they all cheered her on, from the sound booth people to the audience. It was awesome.
Just in case some of you don’t watch the show or haven’t heard, Robin has just finished being treated for breast cancer.

haters watch this video… it will give you some relief……..

Thanks for the pictures sharon :) . Angelina’s just so involved. I love her.

Miranda, you´re so boring.
So nasty to came here and say this things about a woman who is an angel.
grow up!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

felinelilly,you are welcome

“Angelina Jolie’s good works keep on getting noticed. Jolie was voted the top celebrity humanitarian of 2007 by a Reuters poll, due to her work as a U.N. goodwill ambassador and for raising awareness of the suffering in Africa. Following Jolie was Bono, Archbishop Desmond Tutu and Microsoft founder Bill Gates.”

Felinelilly

Felinelily, I brought this from previous in case you missed it.

I watched it also. I started crying also. I told myself stop crying what’s wrong with you? What was wrong? I was so proud of her and her courage. I was so happy for her and all people who dare to do something that is outside of their comfort zone. Peace

America,i like your comments

Angel, for goodness sake, —see AnIntelligentMind’s post—-why can’t you stop with the rude namecalling and being ‘bated’ again and again by those that don’t like Angie because they simply don’t want to like her. They are INVESTED in hating her. To re-evaluate her based on who she is today would not jive with their need to have been right about her.

It takes a big person to change a strong original viewpoint—hence the intensity and destructiveness to the greater good of partisan politics.

You know Angie has evolved into the real deal as do I —as do sooo many of us truefans. Don’t fall into the trap of having to demean yourself by namecalling. Defend Ange with an articulate response–(cj: good on you! :-)

And responding to me by calling me names will only diminish you and prove my point. For some reason, that makes me sad. Peace.

miranda, the truth of the matter is that if you can find a negative in angelina spotlighting and helping and being interested in making this a better world then you are a very sad individual. your life must be very negative. you should try to remedy that.

This is the kind of thread I look forward to seeing - spotlighting her humanitarian work. Thank you very much Jared!!!

Thanks Sharon for the additional photos.

Angie is number one in my book. She’s incredible!!!

MIRANDA @ 02/07/2008 at 1:56 pm
=====

Speak for yourself. Nobody cares about your comment.

She should be home Thursday night (tonight) according to People.

69,no comment,you seem obsessed with me

Miranda is just a gal that chooses not to like beautiful Angelina. It drives us truefans nuts because we can’t see ANYTHING not to love!

But most of us here can’t hack aniston—we’re all calm now because she is out of the picture. But she’ll be back soon–’cause she is a survivor and covets her celebrity like nobody’s business. She will soon blitzkrieg us with her presence and will make us all bonkers!!!!

Try to relate to that and just ignore ignore ignore the prattle of a nonfan.
It is garbage in and garbage out. Is this some kind of sport that you get a kick out of?
Angie is out there bravely trying to make the world a better place…let’s keep that in mind when we come to these threads to share in our love and admiration for her……..and not stoop to turning this community of like-minded into a gaggle of low-class b*tches.

(She said, hoping its not gonna fall on deaf ears……..)

Angelina CNN.

http://edition.cnn.com/2008/WORLD/meast/02/07/iraq.jolie/?iref=mpstoryview

Aww jeez, no one told me there was a new thread. Thanks jared.

Looking Good AJ, looking very good (Superficial? Yes. Do I care? NO!!!)

Bringing this over from the last thread

Quick Question
Where do pregnant Iraqi women go to? Surely they don’t stay in the country…I mean I bet the moment the pregnancy test comes out positive, they are immediately shipped somewhere else…no? I’m just asking because I’m trying to understand where the hoopla over AJ being pregnant and going to Iraq is coming from. As we speak… AJ, who is visiting for 3-4days is 100 times safe than the Iraqi women who live there.

If AJ is indeed pregnant on this trip…then I say bravo to her. Apart from the fact that it shows she’s not your average lazy bones pregnant woman, she’s also showing that when you genuinely want to help others, you don’t do it only when it’s convenient for you. When there’s a call to arms to help someone in bad situation, you heed that call. (Okay, that came off a little Brave-hearty, no? Ah, who cares…AJ is a brave heart or is it has a brave heart? Hmm)

ThankYou
Ever heard of a little country called Benin? Yeah, that’s where my researching doing grandmama lives.

Thanks for the info. :)

mother earth, what is it with you and “true fans”? Just because we’re not all “zen” like you, does not mean all fans here aren’t true fans. In case you don’t know, I’m sure Angie swears too from time to time, it’s not the end of the world. If you don’t like angel’s posts, skip them. Problem solved. Angel IS a true fan, and it’s not like she’s attacking fellow fans. She goes after trolls, and she’s not the only one. So why you’re fixated on her only is beyond me. Again, skip her posts if they bother you, you’ll obviously feel better. I hope my post was civil enough, God knows we shouldn’t offend you.

hello felinelilly, i missed the robin roberts fashion walk. the way she has handled the whold cancer situation has been admirable and awe inspiring. i am sure many going through it themselves find comfort in the face of her bravery.

lady T,thanks for the link

BAMPZS#1, you’re very welcome. :)
——————————
Angel, I see that. Don’t worry about it. No big deal.

am off to work,tommorrow bampzs

mother earth, while you are wanting to keep this thread love filled i will ask you nicely to stop using the word retarded, it is offensive !

Felinelilly @ 02/07/2008 at 3:05 pm Here’s The Deal @ 02/07/2008 at 2:54 pm She should be home Thursday night (tonight) according to People.

—————————————————————————————
you´re absolutely right.
We are all (not including the troll, of course), fan of BAMPZS. You, me, Angel, and others so please dont attack her (angel), because of this.
Wé´re fan of them.
Trolls are insane, so we attack them, of course.
Angel is a true fan!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! :)

Hi Angel…Thank you guys for always making my day…I can’t wait for Angie to get home to her babies and that hunk of man called William Bradley Pitt…

felinelilly—you are doing the ‘thing’–what sooo many of you relatively newbies to this site are doing. You immediately go on the attack for the most rationaly comments—so defensive, so angry.

Coming straight for my jugular when I said what??? That people should think before they turn these once-joyful threads into a garbage dump like Perez had got going????

What is your problem? If you call my comments Zen—you would be laid to your knees with what actual Zen entails?

Just be honest: no need to diss me to express yourself. Just admit it: you like when the climate here turns into a bloodsport and are irked by someone who doesn’t. And is honest about it.

Hi Angel!!

Hey all, maybe Angelina will be met at the airport by Brad like she was the last time she came back…remember he hopped over the seat to get to his babaaay. LOL

Keep an eye out for airport pics!!

:-D

mother earth @ 02/07/2008 at 3:14 pm

you mean you are true fan?!! :roll:
who the he** do you think you are to tell people whether they are true fan or not?
shitzy!you better start to find better job instead of hanging with people here.and you are so obvious,but I really appreciate your efforts.hahahahaha
keep trying,you may actually influence on some people here. :lol:

It’s a blessing to have someone does what Angie does. She is true, brave and hardworking woman. What’s not to love about her? You gotta be a sick person if you can be negative for her.

Look at Angelina and what Angelina has achieved. Then look at x and what x has done. Do we need explanation on why Brad left x for Angelina?

#102: sara, if you look at some of the “wolf in disguise as a lamb” people, they have names that actually are insulting to Angie. They think they are being clever but they are actually very dumb cause they think nobody can see it.

Look for those who have acquired a tennis elbow from patting themselves on the back. They’re your oblivious trolls.

mother earth @ 02/07/2008 at 3:14 pm felinelilly—you are doing the ‘thing’–what sooo many of you relatively newbies to this site are doing. You immediately go on the attack for the most rationaly comments—so defensive, so angry.

—————————–
And you are very passive-agressive. You need to calm down, I did not attack you, and I didn’t diss you. If you thought that was a diss, then you’re more sensitive than a toothache. I simply pointed out that just because we’re not all calm 24/7 like you seem to want us to be, doesn’t mean we’re not fans, that’s all. But tell you what, since we obviously won’t get along, let’s just ignore each other’s posts, and that’s that. There’s enough room on this board for all of us.

I wouldn’t worry about it angel. Some dumbf*** the other day tried to attack me and call me a troll towards Angie all because they were too bitter and too focused on being hateful towards me then focusing on projecting love on Angelina.

Mother Earth probably means well, but like the poster who attacked me about posting links, many are doing the same thing so singling someone out is unfair.

Carlita Hi! It does my heart good to have not left before your post.

Do you see what goes on with some of these gal? They want these threads to be bloodsport. They sit on here all the livelong day and wait for anyone to say something they do not like. One thing to attack so-called trolls but before you know it EVERYONE IS A TROLL!

Watch, sooner or later, someone is gonna call me a troll. It is a microcosm of the McCarthy era——when in doubt, don’t think for yourself. Just gang up and label.

It is scary how defensive so many of you are. How an expression of an opinion to stop the low-level attacks seems to unhinge you.

What are you like in the outside world? Too much cyberspace road rage…..I’m off into the sunshine but I will be back to rattle your cages and hopefully inspire the great gals that I know are here still! :-)
Peace (and I mean it(

This sure is a world of many colors/colours. You can tell who is intelligent and who is dumb & stupid in the way they talk. And who is peaceful and who is looking for trouble in the way they express themselves. You can tell who is happy or not.

Mother earth @ 02/07/2008 at 3:17 pm

wtf?at first this poster name was critina and then JJ changed it to this.seems mother earth poster was admitting herself.and JJ catch her.LOL
good to see at least JJ showed us the colour of this ME’s poster.

Miranda, can you image what the world would be like if nobody learned from their mistakes? If we kept doing the same stupid things we did 5, 10, 15, 20 years ago? Can you image what the world would be like if we didn’t mature mentally along with our physical maturity? If we all remained childlike and childish?

Well, that’s what you are portraying by living in the past. Thank God Angelina has matured and is continuing to grow as a woman and a human being!!!

It’s better when you make it a general message is what I’m saying Mother Earth.

Anyway, I don’t know why people always thing change has to be brought suddenly and swiftly. The bitter haters who really believe that need to look at all the periods of re-building we’ve had in history. I’m sure Angelina doesn’t expect to cure Iraq’s refugee problem in one day, but that’s unrealistic, unfair, and just someone being a bitter ***hole just to be one when they probably aren’t doing sh**>

think change has to be brought about*

You got to love this woman!!.
You are an inspiration Angie. God bless you.l
Thanks JJ for this new thread.

You are an embarrassment! Give it up.

carlita @ 02/07/2008 at 3:35 pm

——————————————

wow carlita, no one mentioned Mother Earth by name. But you just assumed that someone called her a troll in post 117. wonder why?

*sigh*
Are people still singing the “Why did she have to bring a camera with her song? Seriously, what part of Ambassador do these people not get? I was just in the break room, a few minutes ago and WGN (A local Chicago station) was on and they were talking about her visit and the problems she talked about in her interview. The Cameras are needed to HIGHLIGHT the issues…how hard is it to understand this simple concept?!!!

Meanwhile, we have Madonna and her friends, dressed to the nines, posing on the red carpet for a charity dinner yet no one says anything about the cameras….Have we been transported to a bizzaro world? Someone help me out here?

MIRANDA @ 02/07/2008 at 3:31 pm

Hahaha. I love this. It’s perfectly fine to have any opinion of this broad but I get especially giddy when people come to teh defense of ANY celebrity. I won’t begrudge anyone for being here out of boredom but I truly feel sorry for the people that think they know celebrities on an intimate level. It comes from somwhere weird and it’s very entertaining. Keep it coming! I’ll be sick of this in an hour while everyone else is googlign her “humanitarian” efforts. I’m just at work waiting for a ride. Y’all are researching & it’s perfect. Just wildly entertaining!
____
I think most are simply saying we know what she’s done humanitarian-wise and that can’t be disputed. By the way, new articles are posted for the fans to read but bitter vag**** are welcome to read them as well.

#118–I WILL ANSWER THAT QUESTION—BECAUSE FANS THAT THEY WELL MAY BE, THEY ARE UNAWARE/OBLIVIOUS TO THE FACT THAT THEY ARE NOT ANY CELEBRITY’S IDEAL OF A FAN—–BECAUSE THEY ARE READY TO ATTACK AT ALL TIMES. THEY WILL EVEN ATTACK THEIR OWN. MOTHR EARTH SAID NOTHING OTHER THAN BE NICE, STAY COOL AND WE WILL BE THE BETTER FOR IT. ITS HER OPINION. AND THEY JUST FOCUS ALL ATTENTION ON ATTACKING HER NOW. IT IS INSANITY. AND IT SCARES ME. GROUP MENTALITY RIGHT HERE RIGHT NOW.

sorry, felinelilly, angel,the real tita et al–like yur posts most days but ur r all really uncool today. seriously, mother earth made some good points today. i see nothing wrong with sugesting that we avoid namecalling to ‘bait’ trolls. big deal. why call her a troll now. u guys need to give ur heads a shake. yikes–now u r scaring me.

Rotflmao…what’s going on here? Oy! Endless drama on JJ…you gotta love it.

hi thank you. How are you? :)

mOTHER eARTH @ 02/07/2008 at 3:42 pm

stop embaressing yourself even more.ROTFLMAO

thanks JJ for the new thread!!
And this one’s actually truthful…LOL
Angie’s so wonderful….the most inspirational human being I’ve ever come to know.

st. angina @ 02/07/2008 at 3:46 pm
All shes done in this is bring attention to herself bringing attention to the issue. I would respect her if she didnt so obviously use her “goodwill work” as means for media notoriety.
__________________________________________

You stupid little c*nt.
Angie doesnt need your respect. First respect yourself, because its obvious to us all here, that you dont.

Now fcuk off and go develop some self-esteem and stop spouting the talking points you got from the cesspool which shall remain nameless.

Because #139, as Lex pointed out—I am one of the intelligent posters and I can read between the lines. I also can post for myself. Trying to link people to more than one post is showing us that you have waaay too much time on your hands.

CNN has just completely lost credibility at this point. When “legitimate” news outlets and politicians keep encouraging Angelina’s delusions that she’s a brain power worth speaking to, it only makes her say more and more idiotic things with ill-gotten confidence.

_______________

I think that’s why the CNN reporter kept asking her why she was so interested in visiting Iraq. Obviously Jolie is not a gov official and there’s only so much a visit can do.

Jolie answers…human beings, children and the environment…um yeah. I just feel like there is something missing inside this woman and she seeks media attention as a way to make herself feel like some kind of saint or good person. Maybe she needs to get another hobby.

____________________________________________________

Hey AG,
I saw your post over on the other thread and responded there, but then i saw that you re-posted it here cos we didnt realize there was a new thread.

So here’s my response:

Oh dont you know, AG? Pregnant Iraqi women arent white so their babies wont be white and so dont matter.

Remember………only the white Jolie-Pitts matter, so pregnant Angie means another little white Jolie-Pitt is on the way, who must be cared for differently from the nonwhite Jolie-Pitts.

And so, in the haterz’ lizard-brain, Angie is a b*tch for putting her white unborn baby in harm’s way by going to Iraq.

Got it?

Oh yeah going somewhere where you can probably get blown up and die, means that shes not doing anything important. She actually risked her life to figure something out. You act as if shes god, shes only a women and i give her credits for t least be “women”enough to be there idiot.

wow, #166, Im surprised that he would blab to his daughter. Men are NOT the only ones who “gossip”.

I hope she has a boy and a girl. Keep the family even. :lol:

oops I meant to type WOMEN ARE NOT THE ONLY ONES TO GOSSIP.

btw: Hiya Carolina!! :)

also a hello to real tita, Cliniqua and Felinelilly!

Hiyall—well you a few of you goofy girls got tricked by me and don’t you all look like a bunch of over-zealous attack dog mentality losers.
Mother earth (I think) is long gone and just for sport I played with y’all using her name (but spelling it differently out of respect—did you not notice, itwas obvious! And one bigger freak after another went bonkers. Bonkers on another fan. You are a disgrace and you know who your are.

Why do haters all post at the same time period. and even agree with each other. Miranda, Mother earth, st. angina and their other names post at the same time in the moning so i would assume the names all live in the east coast. All wolves in sheep clothing. Always bringing up their right to be negative. Always trying to put a damper on the fans just because they are miseable like their idol.

IGNORE TROLLS

btw: Hiya Carolina!! :)

also a hello to real tita, Cliniqua and Felinelilly!

it is a bit scary. According to People magazine, she will be back by tonight. so she must left there already and she is on the way back to home.

I am listening to Clint Eastwood discussing politics/issues on Fox News. It is an interesting conversation . He is really articulate. He is discusing the writers strike.

someone forgot to change her name before admiting herself. :lol: I love Jared even more when he does this.

Must I go on?

She’s awesome. She’s beautiful regardless, but especially so when pregnant. There’s a contentment and glow that she has now. It’s really nice to see. It’s reminiscent of her first pregnancy with Shi. Love the way she interacts with the others while dining. It reflects a generosity of spirit. Most people would be annoyed by it, but she gets it and responds with openness and kindness.

Love the new St. John pics! Gorgeous!!

Peace, everyone!

If you think she needs to get another “hobby” something she has done as a “hobby” for 6 almost 7 years and when she started the level of media attention was not this high then all the UN Ambassadors should all quit and stay home. She is not doing anything different then the others.
All the other entertainers that visit the troops should stay home too since they are all only doing it for media attention.

Everyone has already enumerated the reasons for the UN ambassadors who are well-known people prior to being appointed but you don’t want to read it. you just want to spout vile investives against a person who happens to be an actress.

We all know it is not about why Ms. Jolie does what she does for you miserable excuses for so-called human beings. It’s all about your own lack of self and lack of compassion for anything or anyone outside your own limited world view.

mother earth @ 02/07/2008 at 3:05 pm Angel, sorry—truly—- I am not obsessed with you. Its just that everytime I come to one of the Bampfzs threads, you do the namecalling thing to respond to the inevitable haters.

It is not personal. You seem to be a nice girl otherwise. Again, my point is why not use an intelligent argument, factoids, examples to make your case for our beautiful Angelina? Tho I doubt it—’cause people love to hate who they love to hate—but maybe you might make them think again.

You call people names and you bait them. And then the thread turns into a vulgar, retarded cesspool.

You can’t possibly dig that.

I will lay off you. There are many others like you

________________________________

I agree about this thread “turning me off” when people start calling one another names and becoming vulgar. We all know we can express our opinions without those epitaphs. Would you be proud of Angie and Brad if they responded to interviewers in this fashion? No! We should elevate ourselves to the level of the people we admire. We don’t need to go to the gutter. There is also room for loving them and disagreeing with some of their decisions. Chill!

Thanks, Keisha! Are we ready for Texas? Big YEAH!!!

Have they asked him about Changeling??

Wow listen to yourselves. So angry. About what? Empty vessels needing to be filled with the life of someone who is truly living. Full of anger and venom. Thinking someone is ‘out to get you.’ You could not be more wrong and more misguided.
You would probably call Jesus Christ a troll for telling you to love and not hate………………………….

oh before I go, a shout-out to LuckyL also!! :)

k bye :)

o.m.g! I can’t believe she’s pregnant with Twins and that dude totally outed her pregnancy. maybe they didn’t want to announce the pregnancy yet because she knew she would catch some heat for going to Iraq when she’s Pregnant. oh lordy!

Um BUZZ, WRONG ANSWER.

She new the armchair philosophers like yourself would focus on her private life aka her pregnancy, rather than an international problem like the refugees in Iraq and the help they need.

hi sharon

I think it is sad that way too many of you regular posters would spout mean-spirited remarks towards a fellow fan. It has finally happened. Most of you have become worse than a troll—because a troll only attacks the enemy. You have stooped to attacking a fellow fan. Talk about evil.

Cliniqua, if you go and look at GC’s, sorry AG, you will see comments that are praising him on his efforts and bravery. Hell the man came home and when asked didn’t know a d*mn thing. That is the difference between Angie and the others. Angie has taken the time, 7 years, to educate herself and learn the laws, the rules, the procedures, the players, the countries involved, the politics, the sensibilities of the people, and her own limitations. She is sensitive to how things work and how you represent yourself. This not ego tripping.

The interviewer was intimidated by Angie and want to make a name for herself by getting a scoop. She thought she would put Angie on the spot and Angie would yield and give her what she wanted. No. Angie doesn’t yield unless she wants to.

Why is there so much bickering among the fans today? Just asking a simple question people.

I don’t own the word. But when I first started ending my post with the word peace I was the only one doing it. Now there are others who do it also. My reason for doing so was as a Muslim woman we greet each other with words wishing each other peace. And instead of say goodbye, we wish each other peace. It is gratifying to see so many peace wishers here on the thread. Today the word doesn’t seem to be having an affect on the thread. But here’s still wishing. Peace

They were discussing Politics, economy, writers strike, etc. Neal Cavuto did ask him if his movie with Angelina Jolie was in the can when discussing the writer strike. Later when discussing why he has no desires to be an mayor again he brings up that he enjoys his life as it is and that he gets to do projects he believes in.

sad lurker, comparing yourself to Jesus Christ? anyway He wouldn’t be here making ugly remarks about a caring and commited woman doing for others. He wouldn’t come here and bait others and then be affronted when the bait is taken.

Hey Aeon, you know what they say…An African Girl’s got to do what an African Girl’s got to do, I don’t have deep pockets, ya know.

I know, I know…BP and AJ, Higher standards…I just don’t get how these people (Fanistons and the not a fans) do it with a straight face. What they like on someone else becomes bad…evil in fact when it’s the JPs.

Sick.

I think I’m way over-zealous today from receiving so many Angelina threads. I will only exude love now lol. I’m not even going to chastise a troll (for now).

Life & Style’s Publisher to Maxim; In Touch, L&S Rate Bases Cut

FEBRUARY 06, 2008 -

Neil Goldstein is jumping ship from Bauer Publishing’s Life & Style to become associate publisher of Alpha Media Group’s Maxim, effective Feb. 28.

His move coincided with parent Bauer’s announcement today that it would cut Life & Style’s rate base 21 percent, to 550,000. The weekly missed its 700,000 rate base by 18,277 copies in the second half of 2007, a period in which it raised its cover price by $1, to $2.99. Bauer also cut sibling title In Touch’s rate base 17 percent, to 1 million.

No successor at Life & Style has been named.

Goldstein became publisher of Life & Style in November 2006, when Bauer named individual publishers for its celebrity weeklies to drive ad sales, replacing Bob Davidowitz, who had been group publisher for Life & Style and In Touch. Goldstein had previously been publisher of Bauer’s teen group.

At Maxim, he will fill a position that has been vacant since Steve DeLuca bolted early last year to become associate publisher at Condé Nast Traveler.

Meanwhile, the Bauer circ cuts mark another blow to the celeb weekly category, whose once-robust growth has been tempered over the past year amid rate base cuts and cover price hikes. Some titles also have been pinched by a decline in ad pages related to the writer’s strike.

The cuts were not unexpected, though. Bauer had been aggressively growing the circulation of its weeklies, raising their rate bases six times since In Touch launched in 2002 and Life & Style made its debut in 2004. Meanwhile, major wholesalers had begun pressuring Bauer to raise the cover prices across its low cover price titles, contending they’re unprofitable for the wholesalers.

here’s a sampling of madge’s faux pas:

From UPI wire: UN criticized for Madonna Gala

Guardian Unlimited: Madonna Hosts Controversial UN Fundraiser

Ecorazzi: The UN Gets A ‘Time Out’ Over Madonna Hosted Charity Event

Digital Spy: Madonna Hits Back Over Charity Bash

Inner City Press: Gucci Uses UN for Ad

New York Sun: As UN Lawn Becomes Gucci Gulch Commerce Mixes w/ Diplomacy

Madonna along with debuting her new face stretched taut as a friggin’ drum…has decided to take down the UN.

I bet they pass a UN law soon that says only Angelina Jolie can represent them. lolol : -D

sad lurker @ 02/07/2008 at 4:07 pm Hiyall—well you a few of you goofy girls got tricked by me and don’t you all look like a bunch of over-zealous attack dog mentality losers.
Mother earth (I think) is long gone and just for sport I played with y’all using her name (but spelling it differently out of respect—did you not notice, itwas obvious! And one bigger freak after another went bonkers. Bonkers on another fan. You are a disgrace and you know who your are.

___________________________
I noticed and watched it happen to another fan. There are ways to set them up and then they just go away for awhile. Lurking ain’t all that bad though.

mother earth @ 02/07/2008 at 2:56 pm

Miranda is just a gal that chooses not to like beautiful Angelina. It drives us truefans nuts because we can’t see ANYTHING not to love!

But most of us here can’t hack aniston—we’re all calm now because she is out of the picture. But she’ll be back soon–’cause she is a survivor and covets her celebrity like nobody’s business. She will soon blitzkrieg us with her presence and will make us all bonkers!!!!

***********************************************************

Malibumom, give it a rest already with you and X, you are too obvious.

AfricanGirl!

IF WE HAVE LESS PEOPLE LIKE MIRANDa! THE WORLD WOULD BE A BETTER HAPPY PLACE! I LOVE THE JOLIE-PITT’S!!!!!!!! GOD BLESS THEM!

124 MIRANDA @ 02/07/2008 at 3:31 pm

…I truly feel sorry for the people that think they know celebrities on an intimate level.
Anyone in paricular here in JJ you’re talking about? I know there’s a lot of them posting in FF.

I like and respect the way she handled the question. I believe it should not have been asked but I believe that news now believe that the viewers can not pay attention to real issues for long. They are wrong

GOD BLESS YOU, ANGIE.

God bless Angelina Jolie.

Her work for the UNHCR, raising awareness for the plight of refugees,
has nothing to do with her relationship with her father.

From the previous thread…

# 231 yep @ 02/07/2008 at 8:11 pm wooden legs Angelina @ 02/07/2008 at 7:55 pm

Wooden face right here is MM -PT busted her on the other thread, that’s what Pt posts say up thread by question.

++++++++++++++

Geez…some of you people are really obsessed with this, aren’t you? I kind of have to laugh because this particular person has been playing both ends of the field for a very long time now - as far back as March 2006. Frankly I’m stunned that no one else was onto her shenanigans.

It’s been pointed out to me by several people that the writing styles involved here are different…but that’s not very hard to do if you know how. That’s all I’m going to say about it, though, because I’m supposed to be out of the troll unmasking business. I slipped the other night and forgot I said that. I was just annoyed the other day that this person has played this game for over 2 years and apparently hasn’t grown tired of it yet. Pretty scary, huh? And sad at the same time…

Her job is to bring attention to the plight of refugees. It’s bound to bring attention to her too. So what? Does it hurt you?
Their kids are her and Brad’s responsibility. Don’t worry. I bet they’re doing just fine.

The UNHCR appreciates the work AJ does for refugees. Colin Powell said that she is serious, and she knows the issues. She REALLY knows what’s going on. This is her 7th year as a goodwill ambassador. She has done more, much more than, for example, Giorgio Armani, another goodwill ambassador for the UNHCR!
She had meetings with the military bosses and I’m sure all the guys enjoy celebs visiting and have lunch with them. Recently Scarlett J was there and now AJ.

You think she not doing anything important, but if you were one of the refugees, you’d appreciate it that there are people who care enough to work to improve life for refugees and displaced people.

I know what your problem is. You want what she has! :lol:
Well, offer to work for a UN agency, then you will be in the news too, complete with your picture, if the media likes you. It would help if you become a famous movie star first.
You can’t have Brad. :lol: His focus is Angie He said so.

Thank JJ;)

Angelina has been named most liked celebrity humanitarian by a recent Reuters poll. That means people find her genuine and heartfelt. (Of course we didn’t need no stikin poll to tell us that but it’s nice anyway.)

According to Peter Walker, director of the Feinstein International Famine Center at Tufts University, people are impressed with how authentic she is. “People aren’t stupid,” he said. “They can really sense when it’s just an endorsement and when somebody really means it. Someone like Angelina Jolie comes across as having more integrity than some celebrities and a greater sense that she doesn’t just do this for the publicity.”

Polsters seemed particularly impressed with Angie’s work on behalf of international refugees. Since becoming a United Nations Goodwill Ambassador, she’s visited 20 crisis spots throughout the world. Most visited camps in Iraq.

“She does this in a very low-key way,” said UNHCR spokesman Peter Kessler. “She goes out to see for herself, to get up close and very personal. She doesn’t travel with film crews, and I think that is real testimony to her dedication to the cause.”

ok words cannot explain how much i love and admire this woman!! shes too good for hollywood!!

268 Legs @ 02/08/2008 at 2:12 am Actually, Nouri Al-Malaki has the biggest bump in that pic…

:lol: Too much lamb!

thanks to #265 for posting that commentary up there. i think that perfectly summed up why i love angie so much. i mean, there are plenty of celebrities involves in humanitarian works and activism, but the way she chooses to conduct herself is incredibly rare in the industry.
angie could have put on gorgeous gowns and throw elaborate galas, but she chose to don bullet-proof vest instead and sit among the individuals who are actually involved in the conflict and partake in their story.
i am drawn by the very same authenticity and rawness that she personally holds in high esteem.

114 Yeah @ 02/07/2008 at 3:26 pm

McCain/Jolie. That’s the ticket.
——-
You wish! Isn’t AJ a liberal?

good for you Ang b/c that was dumb of them to ask!!!! But I’m goin to say with her no comment that’s a yes b/c every other time the rumors have went around she would always so “no” …….I can tell by looking at her she is but I’ve just got that gift. I don’t think it’s twins though………….

Great come back AG!
What?? OMG!! AG <> & KISSES!!
Ohhhh..I can’t think of enough words to express my happiness
when I saw the dedication & comments @ the end of the video.
I’m still in tears knowing you’re proud of me and
thinking your first come back video you dedicated it to me..
And this song I love it!!
The swaying effects is so sexyyyy!! Love it!!
I LOVE YOU AG!!
