Angelina Jolie is Always Mom-Centric

Angelina Jolie is Always Mom-Centric

Angelina Jolie takes her maternal identity seriously and told the LA Times lots of interesting tidbits about her life:

On her life’s focus: “The center of my life is my kids.”

On life just hours before presenting an award to Clint Eastwood: “I woke up at 3 in the morning with four kids with jet lag and two babies. I put myself together for a few hours and go out. And then I go home. This is my job.”

On no signs of settling down in Hollywood: “I don’t dislike it here. I just really do love to travel. I love other cultures. And I love raising my kids in the world. I’m so fortunate that I get to do that.”

On Changeling helping her get pregnant with twins Knox and Vivienne: “I got pregnant right in the middle of [filming] and I think partially because of it. I was so emotional about children that I think something in me kicked into gear.”

Why is that JA seemed like she didn’t have any idea what Vogue mag wrote— “What else did they write?” (or something)— Isn’t it an S.O.P. to read first the article before giving the go signal to publish?

I have been decent about my feelings for JA even though I’m not her fan. I refrain form calling her names. But this time, after the infamous Vogue and Oprah interviews, I believe she is stupid and doesn’t take any responsibility for her acts. She’s a first class coward. She blamed the author, for Pete’s sake! What a b**ch!

There was a difference between boys and girls, males showing greater self-esteem. But the startling finding was between the girls in two different schools. Half lived within the camp and attended its primary schools. The others attended the Angelina Jolie Girls’ Boarding School, located in the camp.

The latter had a “kindred spirit with Wellesley,” which helped girls gain confidence as capable human beings, to see their own potential.”

The difference demonstrated between the two groups was marked. The Jolie girls had a more positive view of self “drawing themselves bigger,” and provided more positive descriptive terms. The Jolie girls thought of themselves as smart and pretty, they wanted to be doctors and leaders. The camp girls struggled with any description.

THANKS BDJ.

That is not what I got from Oprah’s interview at all.

I had no doubt that ___’s @$$ was going to be parked on Oprah’s stage at some point, given the fact that she made a dog movie. But I think that Oprah’s decision to have ___ around the same time as Brad was quite deliberate. I mean… just look at how she slapped this show together versus the Brad and Cate show. With the Brad and Cate show, she took her time and solicited questions from her viewers, set up Skype feeds for them, and actually got both Brad and Cate to be physically on the show, etc. What does she do with ___? Set up a leather high chair for ____ and set up Skype feeds for Owen Wilson, and for some reason, ___’s dog and some dude who was in charge of them during the Skype segment. I mean, seriously… what the fcuk!!!!

It’s possible that Owen couldn’t make it to the show, or maybe, he didn’t want to do the show at all; however, it was quite clear that promoting Marley and Me was purely secondary; the primary objective was to reaffirm that ___ is A-OK. And Oprah’s pressing of the Vogue cover and the M&M/TCCOBB, felt like Oprah was trying to stand ___ on her own two feet and make her own up to what she said (the M&M/TCCOBB comment was prodded by Oprah and like the puppet she is, ___ said what the princesses and Oprah wanted to hear.).

No, it was about what the “pundits” on tv talked about. Funny thing is they didn’t talk about anything else, just the Angelina dissing quote. Her whole long interview, and nada, just that one quote made the news.
I like the fact that the audience applauded when she said the divorce is so old stuff, like a 100 years ago. It’s like people are saying it’s time to move on.

Thanks to the fans who posted articles and links and videos.

So I saw the video of the Hag on Okra and I wanted to vomit and let say I will leave it at time.

Hiya back Neleh, how are you?

I work in Hollywood. I know all the players. Believe what I am about to tell you or not. Brad & Angelina did not have an affair. No one cheated. After Pitt split with Aniston officially, did he go after Jolie, who was initially RELUCTANT, like a heat seeking missile?? HELL YES. That’s it, and that’s all. He eventually wore her down in the Spring of 2005, and they were together. For anyone who knows the timeline, Pitt and Aniston had been officially split (having issued a joint press release) for several months by then. Here’s the deal - I am compelled to say this: Angelina as a person, doesn’t even ATTEMPT to be flirty around guys, she’s pretty guileless. I say that to say - there was no seductive ‘luring,’ going on onset (THAT is laughable), as some people like to suggest regarding Angelina. I was there. Eventually, as they got to know each other, did Pitt seem close to her? Yes Did she seem close to Pitt? Sure. But in the way of many co-stars who click working together and are very good friends (see Clooney & Julia Roberts, see Angelina and Matt Damon, see Pitt and Cate Blanchette) If you believe Aniston, then you must believe that no one cheated, as she said it herself. This woman, for publicity’s sake, just wants her cake and to eat it too. She wants people ‘mad,’ at Pitt (or maybe now JUST Jolie, I see she’s changed tactics), for some crime she never committed. But she can’t say what the crime is, because it didn’t happen - so Aniston continues to whine and moan and talk about hurt feelings, and she’s hoping the public will accept THAT and diss Jolie, on the basis of ‘Jen’ not getting the fairytale, instead of the ACTUAL REALITY: Pitt was leaving Aniston PERIOD. For those who CARE…Pitt & Jolie also said no one cheated. The way I see it, that’s 3 out of 3. So again, what’s Aniston’s beef? It’s simple, she’s got one. Pitt and Jolie were together five months after he ‘officially’ separated with Aniston. Aniston FREAKED OUT because THAT made her LOOK BAD, or so she thought. That’s why the Vanity Fair hit piece happened. As for Jolie’s Vogue in 2007, Angelina refers to her friendship with Brad during the film - there was no ‘detailed timeline,’ Aniston is LYING. AFTER Pitt’s official separation, when they were STILL filming Mr & Mrs. Angelina then describes them growing closer, and starting to believe that they might be more than friends. Smith had it’s last shoots in early spring of 2005, Pitt had already BEEN officially separated a few months by then. I say all this to say…Angelina has no problem talking about anything she’s done in her life, but why does Jolie have to keep her mouth shut about the biggest most important relationship in her life, that started honestly…ESPECIALLY, when she’s got this b*sh trashing her and many others trashing her as a ‘homewrecker.’ If it’s not true, isn’t she entitled to say it’s not true?? What’s wrong with you women? Are you all jealous bags, who want to punish Jolie simply because she was ‘next,’ for Pitt?? Or because relatable ordinary TV Jen, didn’t get what she wanted? What does that say about YOU? That you’re jealous attack hens who beat up on beautiful Oscar winners?? I thought Jolie’s interview, back in 2007 was gracious, and poised and a class act. To think Aniston had a problem with anything Jolie said, is showing just how NOT OVER IT, and mega-obsessed she is with this wonderful family. She needs to take lessons from Kidman, Witherspoon and Thurman on how to handle a painful divorce. They are class acts. Aniston shows more and more everyday - just how much Brad Pitt has upgraded. As a role model, she’s a weak pathetic loser and poor excuse. I PITY Jennifer Aniston. She has NOT moved on, and it is painfully apparent. She needs help. It’s either that, or this whole dog and pony show has been masterminded by her PR people (Huvane & co) to whip up interest in a person that can’t garner it on her own without the infamous tabloid ‘triangle.’ I tend to think it’s the latter. Aniston has had several significant others and long term relationships SINCE Pitt, the most recent garnered a lot of attention due to the fact that she was dumped in the street. She could have spent the entire interview dressing that douchebag down, and yet she goes back two whole years, and plasters Jolie’s name on her Vogue cover to sell issues. Pathetic.

Cliniqua did you write this? LOL

Senior, I got your happy birthday shout out. I responded to you but I think Jared opened a new thread and everyone went there. Please forgive me for not reposting it on the new thread.

I miss hearing from you. You are one of the joys here at JJ’s. Peace

Haters just show a bitter heart, as bitter as Jennifer’s that’s why they identify with her.

One has to be very stupid if believeng what Jennifer said, that she wishes the best to Brad and Angelina.

Jennifer also said she just answered when asked. Come on woman, how many times people did the same question and you refused to answer? As far as I know you asked the interviewer to turn off the tape, right? sok, you are not candid at all.. you are trying to be clever… No even your fans would believe you… they might support you but they know you are not sincere.. That’s the mos disgusting part of you and that is the reason of that I will never like her. I don’t mind when people makes mistakes, we all are humans, but I do dislike when people does not admit her faults.

Angelina you are the best!

dark angel @ 11/13/2008 at 9:10 pm

To an oldie,

Thanks for the correction. :-)

Funny thing also is that they didn’t talk about her dissing “Sex and the City”… I found STC empowering not to mention super funny.

I see you stole my name and used it several times if you like it keep it because I wanted to changed for sometime anyways.

I was Jennifer Aniston for Halloween. I dressed in really boring clothes, and wherever I went, people wondered what I was doing there, and why people cared about me.

dianad1968 @ 11/13/2008 at 9:23 pm

This b**ch hasn’t moved on, and probably never will. Regarding the “100 years” comment, she said something similar when she was on Okra in 2005. At that time she said “let’s turn the page”. That’s her, always talking in cliches.

Jen on Oprah @ 11/13/2008 at 5:09 pm http://www.huffingtonpost.com/2008/11/13/jennifer-aniston-on-oprah_n_143699.html

Okay, I did not read the whole thread but I’m sure someone’s alreay addressed this crazy issue of O leading JA through the interview. It is just sickening. I don’t believe this. O says to JA how she though in the V interview JA was responding to Ange’s DVD comment. The V interview was done in September, so when JA made the comment about UNCOOL, Ange’s DVD comment was non-existent. O trying to help JA out, O became so very transparent. Yikes. I don’t like either one of them.

I have no intention of watching this Okra’s episode, (I haven’t watched her show in over a year), but if what you are saying is true,Brad must be sooo mad he went on her show.

Agreed. CHECK IT: How stupid does she think her audience is? Why does Oprah need to ask and wonder for 30 seconds, just what Aniston said?? The magazine is f**king RIGHT IN HER HAND!!! LMAO Furthermore, why can’t Aniston recall what SHE herself said point blank was ‘uncool,’ when IN THE ARTICLE, she actually QUOTES a sentence from Angelina’s 2 YEAR OLD interview??!!

So again, let me get this straight, Oprah (who is holding the mag IN HAND!! Hahaha) asks Aniston what she said IN THE MAG and it doesn’t come to Aniston at all, she stammers and stutters and hems and haws. But when she’s being INTERVIEWED by the Vogue reporter she EASILY recalls 2 YEAR OLD cartoons and 2 YEAR OLD quotes that she found ‘inappropriate’ and ‘uncool!!!’ But right there on Oprah, with BOTH OF THEM looking DEAD at the magazine THEY HAVE IN HAND…they CANNOT recall what was said, and don’t bother to just OPEN the mag and READ, what Aniston, HERSELF said not even 3 weeks ago???!!

OMG They BOTH are such liars!! Hahahaha! Caught red-handed, and they STILL don’t give a f*ck who thinks they are lying scheming b*tches. WORSE STILL, Oprah then inquires of Aniston, if it was Angelina’s NYT interview comment about ‘the children seeing the movie where their parents fall in love one day when they’re older,’ that she meant was “uncool,” — Oprah pulled that COMPLETELY out of her asss…and WONDERS aloud if THAT is what Jen is REFERRING TO when she says “uncool,” NEVERMIND that at the time of Aniston’s VOGUE, Jolie hadn’t even said that yet!! Nevermind, that if she TRULY wanted to know what Aniston said, she would have JUST opened the magazine up and read it!! ..and/or Aniston would have JUST had the ballz to volunteer what it is she actually DID say!! ESPECIALLY since she’s been stewing about it FOR TWO YEARS!! What f**king FRAUDS and LIARS. Pathetic f*ckwads!
