Angelina Jolie Covers Harper’s Bazaar July 2009

Hollywood goddess Angelina Jolie is the July 2009 cover girl for Harper’s Bazaar’s. Here are some snippets from the lead story “Why Women Want Angelina Jolie’s Life” via essayist Naomi Wolf:

—- Polls also show that if women — not just lesbian and bisexual women but straight women — had to choose a female lover, they would want to sleep with Angelina Jolie. In other words, women both identify with her and desire her.

—- Her persona hits an unprecedented level of global resonance — and makes women want to be with her and be her at the same time — because she has created a life narrative that is not just personal. Rather, it is archetypal. And the archetype is one that really, for the first time in modern culture, brings together almost every aspect of female empowerment and liberation.

—- The magic of Jolie’s self-presentation? She makes the claim, with her life and actions, that, indeed, you can get away with it. All of it. Against every Western convention, she has managed to draw together all of these kinds of female liberation and empowerment. And her gestures determinedly transgress social boundaries — boundaries of convention, race, class, and gender — giving many of us a vicarious thrill.

FYI: The cover photo is a December 2008 red carpet pic of Angie in Versace at the Los Angeles premiere of Brad Pitt’s The Curious Case Of Benjamin Button. Bigger cover pic inside…

I’m too old to sleep with anybody but I love what she has made of herself inspite of what might have been difficulties.
Thanks jj. I’l never get tired of saying God bless JP, their family and all their fans.

@dela: Nope, thats Aniston and yourself dela, that have the crotch rot. I hear like aniston, you can no longer insert a tampon, as it falls straight out from going through too many men.

@Rica:
Rica leave the teens alone. Why are you here - why did you just show up after so long. Are you trying to recruit for your filth site. Waiting for you next post. Lets see how long before you bait with your little fan fic piece.

@emma: i tottally agree

@The real deal:
Your anger, aggession and venum speak a lot about what kind of person you are.

@whoa: Nope, that is Marisa, agree and all your other fake troll nicks that are the ones who come on here and trash a good woman out of your anger, aggression, deep-seated hatred and jealous venom. Take a look in the mirror.

Hey Rica - welcome back.

Geez…you have not been on here for long and already you’ve got a stalkerly from out the bushes. Some found you fanfiction too HOT TO HANDLE - [dancing to Heatwaves "Too Hot to Handle]

So much jealousy and envy from certain ugly people. Haters, just beause you are ugly inside and out, it should not stop you from appreciating beauty and talent. Angie is everything the woman said she is and that is why millions are facinated and love her. Just ask Brad, he took one look and got hooked. Haters can hate and try to convince us otherwise, but not everyone is as blind as them.

That’s funny, Tiger yelling at the TV like I do. I wonder if he jumped up and down like I did. LOL!

OT I read in USA weekend that the little girl in Eddie Muprhy’s new movie also acted alongside Angie in Salt. Does Salt the character have kids? Btw the girl appears to be black.

I for one, is envious or would want to be like her….She’s very busy with her children, work, Brad Pitt and still have the time to travel,help and donates millions of good hard earned money to the less fortunate children around the world…

Being beautiful is just an added attraction….Angelina has a good heart…she may not have started it right, but people change…and what’s so good about it is that, she changes into a beautiful person in and out!

WISH A LOT OF WOMEN OR MEN ARE LIKE HER…SHE CONTRIBUTES AND SHARE HER BLESSINGS ….BRAD IS A VERY LUCKY GUY TO HAVE HER….

ANGELINA IS ONE IN A MILLION…A RARE JEWEL …

Let me get this correct - Angie doesn’t have “real substance”? ROTFLMAO. That must be why everyone from the tabloids to world leaders, and their dog, is scrambling to associate themselves with her in some way, shape or form.

@Sal:

Sall you are so wrong - it was three occassions and the out fits they are both wearing are 3 different outfits — go on line and look it up before you spew your ignorance again.

It is true she is beauty and brains and the real deal. Brad is one lucky guy. I may add, a true humanitarian too. Thanks JJ.

I like Angie, I respect her, and I admire her. Would I ever do her? Hell to the no. (I’d do Brad in a New York minute, though. :) )

that is a beautiful picture I love her…

Why do these fanistons keep saying that the cover has been photoshopped like it’s a bad thing?? ALL covers of magazines are photoshopped — do they think that fugly’s GQ covers (the Man of the Year shite and the naked orgy pics) were not photoshopped? Even the gorgeous ones like Charlize T, Halle B and Catherine ZJ are photoshopped when they appear on the front cover. But of course, since they are haters, they slant their posts so that Angelina’s cover being photoshopped should be condemned!!

Hehehehehe. I don’t think the wife and kids were in Ohio with him…so I can totally see him cussing a blue streak in the 2nds when it headed for the tie-breaker. Although…that jumping up and down thing? Uh…no. I didn’t do that and I can’t quite see Tiger doing that either. I was way too tired from getting up at the crack of freaking dawn to watch that match. 8am on a Sunday is like kryptonite to me.

I’ve seen 5 different pics of Michael Douglas kissing his dad Kirk on the lips, no tongue. I’ve seen 3 pics of Kate Hudson kissing Oliver on the lips . What’s your point?

Brad’s wife is a beautiful lady.

Is this American Bazaar?

i think the article is dead on
i would def. pick her if i had to choose
she’s been my favourite actress ever since i was 12
she’s amazingly beautiful

lets talk about sleeping around yeah. would totally sleep with either her or brad in a ny second lol jill. i am not jealous of her no…i wish i was though because then i would be more vain than i already am and could understand all the hate she gets.

about the nia movie that came out on friday…after listening to her in a wonderful interview on friday, i don’t think she expects the film to do amazing at all, but she is just amazingly glad to be back writing scripts and back in the game. she’s a good egg. canada loves her, even winnipeg. lol.

oh and regarding the article..it’s interesting and well written…although i’m sure anyone else could have written the same thing considering how many people want to sleep with either her or brad.

Too bad haper’s bazaar was too cheeep to get a real life Angelina to sit for a cover shot. lol

that mag comes across as desperado

don’t get these comments here about sleeping with angelina straight or not! Why do you guys think sex ? She’s attractive..yes…but, what ’s wrong with being friends? I honestly don’t believe she is a secure person…but, tht is her problem. Don’t think much about her as an actress either…but, again don’t dislike her either.

Who would want to be Angelina???? She has too much baggage and her lifestyle is not normal.
