Angelina Jolie: Brad Makes Me A Better Woman

Angelina Jolie: Brad Makes Me A Better Woman

Angelina Jolie reveals in the new issue of W Magazine that she had only planned on adopting children but after falling in love with Brad Pitt, he changed her mind.

Here are some quotes from the mag via People:

On Brad changing her mind about giving birth to her own children: “I think one of the life changing things that he did, one of many, is that I was absolutely never going to get pregnant. I never felt that it was the right thing to do… I suppose I just looked at him and loved him and just felt open to (getting pregnant). I suddenly wanted to. It’s one of those things you can’t explain.”

On Brad seeing adopted children Maddox and Zahara: “I knew that he would never see them as different, and that gave me a certain peace.”

On having three children with Brad: “I wouldn’t trade that experience for the world. It taught me a lot about life, just the process of it, and now we have three other beautiful children that wouldn’t otherwise be here.”

On baring her body for the intimate W pics taken by Brad just weeks after the twins’ birth: “I’m with a man who’s evolved enough to look at my body and see it as more beautiful, because of the journey it has taken and what it has created. He genuinely sees it that way. So I genuinely feel even sexier.”

On Brad being perfect for her: “[I have] a lot of respect [for Brad. He helps me] to be better and fight hard for the things that I love. I do think that I’m in a good partnership now. I think it just needed to be the right man.”

I am very very happy for Angelina.
This is the happiest she has ever sounded.
She was born to be a mother.

I think she looks beautiful in the picture. Her love of being a mother shines through.

I love this couple. They are truly in love and raising beautiful children. I have no doubt their children will know a beautiful life.

How closely did you identify with your role in “The Changeling,” especially since you’ve experienced being the subject of character assassination yourself?

I love Ruben Nepales, he asks kick-asss questions. That’s why his AJ interviews are the one of the few places you can hear new and interesting things, simply because he’s not asking the same damn questions over and over and over again, like a lot of these fools.

I don’t know why but I think they are married. In the interview Angie said ask Brad.

The haters will be all over that site.

Both of them had rings on the same finger. I wonder if he popped the question or something.

Did you notice that Angelina has new rings on her right.

Some people have Romeo and Jul…as a nice love story, i have
Brad and Angelina.

God, keep blessing and watching over the Jolie-Pitt family.

Brad Pitt Goes Back to Work – in Germany

Just days after going to New Orleans with Angelina Jolie and the kids to visit the site of his environmentally friendly housing project Make it Right, Brad Pitt on Friday headed to the set of his new World War II drama Inglorious ******** in Germany.

Pitt, 44, who plays Lt. Aldo Raine in the Quentin Tarantino-directed film, will be shooting in two locations outside Berlin: at a period farmhouse in a village outside of Dresden and in the spa town Bad Schandau.

Jolie, 33, and the couple’s children – who visited New York last week for the premiere of Jolie’s movie Changeling – are expected to leave the French chateau where the family has been living since May and join Pitt in Berlin.

To Nice
You always have very nice comments, and sending lots of good vibes to Brad and Angie…I find it very sweet that you ask god to watch over them, so cute of you. I also love the person that send the “Showers of Blessings for the Jolie Pitt family.

Do you love “Mr. and Mrs. Smith,” but find yourself wanting them to set aside the bullets, boobs and bombs and just let the characters breathe a bit? Were you mighty moved by “A Mighty Heart,” but wish the flick wasn’t so damn talky? Now, Angelina Jolie is in the process of reaching for a happy medium between the dramatic and the dim-witted, and if she has her way, “Salt” will soon be adding some flavor to your moviegoing experience.

“It’s very different from that,” producer Lorenzo di Bonaventura recently said of “Smith” when we asked him what the two spy films had in common. “[Jolie] is the first person cast, and she is the most important person to be cast too. It’s going to be a very exciting film, Phillip Noyce is directing it, and we are going to start in February. It’s a big spy movie on a big canvas with a lot of attitude.”

Originally called “Edwin A. Salt,” the film was supposed to star Tom Cruise as the title character, an American spy who might or might not also be working for the Russians. Now, “The Quiet American” director Noyce will be overseeing Jolie and reportedly changing her name to Edwina, but keeping the script’s basic structure.

“Phillip Noyce has a very distinct personality and sensibility, and ‘Mr. and Mrs. Smith’ was totally fun and engaging,” Bonaventura said of the inevitable comparisons “Salt” will face with the film that made Brangelina a household phrase. “This film is much more serious and about real jeopardy. How are we going to get out of this? Who is who? And all the great things you love in an intense spy movie. This has it, and a lot more attitude on top of it.”

You can look forward to Angelina and her newfound attitude in late 2009/early 2010, and lots of additional “Salt” casting news in the next few months.

ANGELINA JOLIE’S SHADES AND DRESS
Please tell me where I can find those sunglasses and the dress that Angelina is wearing? – Belma

After showing off her trim body-after-baby in a custom-made Versace stunner at the New York premiere of Changeling, the actress was back in New Orleans – and back to her chic and comfy style – in a Gerard Darel black maxidress and YSL shades.

I think Angie is lovely in lots of ways.

And, come on, people. She got pregnant to solidify her relationship with Brad. He was only separated from Jen at the time, not yet divorced. 2nd, she said Brad doesn’t treat Mad, Pax, or Z any differently. That is because he does not have her hang ups. She on the other hand, shunned Shiloh for her first 2 years. It’s only when she got pregnant again that I saw her starting to warm up to Shiloh. Even so, she has never been as openly affectionate and warm with Shiloh as she has been with Mad and Z. All the candid photos of her and her children don’t lie.

Angie is not a saint or a sinner. She is human. Why do so many posters only see her as perfect, saintly? It’s not real.

I wish Brad and Angelina and family lots of love and joy.

ingrid @ 10/10/2008 at 3:38 pm
hmms you are seriously lacking for writing such a comment. Tabloids are not your friend. Any logical person can see the deep bond between AJ and Shiloh. Let it go hen. Sometimes you can cross a line where compassionate and hope do not reside.

califan @ 10/10/2008 at 2:38 pm
Thanks for the links. Great interview.

Good afternoon to all of the BAMPZSKV fans. I sincerely hope everyone is having a TGIF day. Hello to senior, vickiefromtexas, anoble, guli, the real tita, andromeda, alexanderina, bdj, juste me, Felinelly, cliniquas, bermy girl, estelle, irma, Tijen, Tayee88, Califan, Neleh, and Helen. Please forgive me if your name was not included.

Senior, I didn’t see your original shout out to me. Thank you for you kind words. Senior you and I both know we have and are blessed everyday. I went because who knows if I would have been able to go in the future.

guli, don’t rush your recovery. Healing takes time. Neleh you are so sweet always remembering Ms. dina #1. Helen thank you for posting that wonderful interview. It seems journalist outside of the US ask the best questions when interviewing Brad and Angie. I wonder why? bdj, thanks for the wonderful articles.

OT a little. Remeber the thread, Brad and Angie snuggling? Don’t they seem so relaxed snuggling in front of those people. I bet they wouldn’t do that in HW unless it was on the rc. They seem at home.

Tom, the volunteer who lives in New Orleans said that the locals don’t bother them or ask for autographs. He said he has seen them walking down the streets just like a normal family. He said if you wave to them they wave back. New Orleans is good for them.

Lylian, your explaing the difference between McCain’s and Obama’s tax proposals was inspiring. You are such a good teacher. Are you a teacher? Have to go now, daughter calling. Peace

Isn’t it Brad who wanted to solidify his relationship with Angelina by adopting Zahara with her.which is which.He surely adpoted Zahara first before Angelina got pregnantLOL.
