The divine Angelina Jolie is featured in June’s Vanity Fair magazine just in time to rustle up some publicity for the release of her new movie "Mr. and Mrs. Smith" which comes out June 10th.
In the article, Angelina spends time talking about the movie, but mostly talks about what it’s like being Angelina Jolie. The actress has got a lot to juggle these days what with being a single mom to a 3-year-old, making movies, doing press junkets, and being one of the most stalked celebrities around. But more important, now that she’s adopted little Maddox from Cambodia, she’s been moved to try and get the world’s attention on the plight of refugees in third world countries, in much the same way the late Princess Diana took up the cause of victims of land mines.
, In addition to visiting refugee camps in more than a dozen countries (Pakistan and Sierra Leone just this week), she has donated more than $3 million dollars to relief organizations, and has pledged to donate a third of her income in perpetuity. Now that is putting your money where your mouth is. Awesome, Ang.
She has a good sense of who she is and what she can do. In the interview, Angelina remarks that she needs to be in character when she speaks before Congress in Washington: "When I’m here, there’s a side of me that I just get into focus. I get my notes, my pen. I get my head together. And I do want to cover my tattoos, get into my suits, look clean, don’t dress too sexy, and just try and present the woman that I’m not sure I am, but would like to aspire to be."
As for the rumors about her romance with Brad Pitt, she called most of the stories "absolute bullshit." But it makes one wonder if the two will eventually hook up once his divorce from Jennifer Aniston is final. News out of London is that Pitt is supposed to be making a new movie there about a true story involving an attempted raid on the Millennium Dome. The website Itv.com is reporting that he is looking for a home in West London, which would move him closer to Angelina, who just so happens to live full-time in Buckinghamshire, on the outskirts of London.
