2011-11-19T02:48:00.000-08:00

Angelina Jolioe Ranked #90 in the 2011 FHM list of "100 Sexiest Women in the World". Previously she ranked #70 in 2010, #14 in 2009, #9 in 2008, #8 in 2007, #4 in 2006, #3 in 2005, #9 in 2004, #32 in 2003, #32 in 2002, #61 in 2001, and #68 in 2000.

Angelina Jolie was named after costumer designer Angela Alexander who designed costumes for the film The All-American Boy (1973) that her father Jon Voight starred in. Jon and Angela became good friends on the set, and he became fascinated when she told him her original Greek name was "Angeliki", which in Greek mean's "Angelic Messenger of God". During the film's shoot, Jon Voight came to Angela on the set and told her that one day if he and his wife (then actress Marcheline Bertrand) ever had a daughter he was going to name her "Angelica". They had just had a son. Two years later, Jon Voight and Marcheline gave birth to Jolie. Although he originally named her Angelica, a year later after his divorce with Marcheline, she began calling her "Angelina.".

Olivia Wilde to Take Over for Angelina Jolie in Tomb Raider Reboot?

It's been eight years since Academy Angelina Jolie last suited up as Eidos' popular video game-heroine-come-to-life in Lara Croft Tomb Raider: The Cradle of Life and more than two years since it was announced that Warner Bros. planned to reboot the franchise by going back to the origins of the character.

Now, there's word that an actress may have been found who has what it takes to embody the role that Angelina Jolie made famous on screen.

According to TheFanCarpet, up-and-coming actress Olivia Wilde is "being lined up" to become the new Lara Croft in the franchise reboot, which an anonymous "source close to the project" revealed will be "far darker and more serious" in tone than the first two movies.

Flirt & Fawn

Angelina Jolie & Johny Depp Flirt & Fawn In ‘The Tourist!’

There is less than a month to go before Angelina Jolie
and Johnny Depp team up for their much anticipated flick The Tourist (Dec. 10), and today we can get a brief glimpse at a scene from the film!

A new clip from the thriller, which stars Depp as American tourist Frank and Jolie as mysterious and quite possibly dangerous vamp Elise, has been released, revealing the pair's initial encounter on a train.

In this clip a very gorgeous Angelina approaches a rather unassuming Johnny and asks him to tell her why she is on the train heading to Venice!

Aside from the star power, details surrounding The Tourist have been pretty vague. It stars the talented Johnny Depp and Angelina Jolie, which is enough to get most people interested. But knowing about the plot is nice. All we know so far is that Depp plays a tourist, who is attempting to get over a broken heart, and Jolie interferes with plans of her own. Somehow there's danger involved.

WOW... wait and see..

Rumor has it, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are going to make
their relationship official by walking down the aisle. The latest issue of OK! Magazine has teased people with the headline, mentioning that the couple is going to get married to please their children.

"It's official! Brad & Angie: wedding for the kids!" so wrote the publication on the cover page. It is further added that their little children, with the help from Brad's mother Jane, were the ones who managed to convince their parents to tie the knot.

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie were first reported dating in 2005 after they teamed up in "Mr and Mrs Smith". They later live together and have three adoptive children in addition to three biological children. The couple who has shown their support for same-sx marriage previously declared they would not consider getting married until it was "legal for everybody."

The following is .. Mr. and Mrs. Smith: Already Gone

A Mr. and Mrs. Smith fanvid set to Kelly Clarkson's "Already Gone."

The premise is that they keep thinking that they have already left their marriage. At the end, the clips don't fit the lyrics because their heads keep telling them to leave, but their hearts say something else.

The Tourist, Filming halted due to legions of fans

2010-03-21T03:07:00.000-07:00

Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp: Filming halted due to legions of fans...

The Tourist is an upcoming remake of the French film Anthony Zimmer, the film is directed by Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck and stars Golden Globe winner Johnny Depp and Academy Award winner Angelina Jolie.

Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp’s upcoming thriller The Tourist has faced a hurdle for which the production wrapped up the filming much before its time.

The legendary Hollywood veterans attracted huge legions of screaming fans on last Wednesday (March 17) who wanted snap the celluloid legends. According to the evidence drawn from TMZ, “fandemonium was too overwhelming for security” and in a move to assure everyone’s safety the filming crew called it quits for that day and packed up before things got any crazier. Some of the on-set location pics show the gorgeous celebs waving to their eager fans after stepping out of a taxi-boat. However, a film representative is yet to deny or confirm the story.

In the much anticipated Florian Henckel von Donnersmarck directed thriller, the sxy Angelina Jolie plays the role of a manipulative and seductive Interpol agent Cara Mason who sleeps with Frank Taylor, an unsuspecting American tourist to get to a criminal with whom she was romantically involved in the past.

According to the ceaseless buzz the quirky actor Depp’s longtime girlfriend Vanessa Paradis objected to Depp doing the movie when she realized that Depp and rumored “man-eater” Jolie would have to shoot some really steamy shower scenes for the thriller...

Angelina - Johnny Sx under shower

Actors Angelina Jolie and Johnny Depp will feature together in a steamy shower sx scene in their upcoming film The Tourist. Film screenplay demands that there should be one nakd shower encounter between the characters played by Jolie and Depp.

I've always wanted them to be together not only because of their beauty but they are both twisted and weird but kind and I hope they end up together kow.

We had her jumping out of helicopters, shooting, jumping off of all sorts of things and infiltrating places that are impossible to infiltrate". On May 29, 2009 filming was temporarily halted after Jolie suffered a minor head injury during filming an action scene. She was taken to hospital as a "precautionary measure" and was released the same day with no life-threatening injuries and filming was resumed the same day.

Sue News of the World over 'split' story

2010-02-09T17:03:00.000-08:00

In February 2010, Jolie and Pitt sued UK tabloid News of the World for reporting they were splitting up.... As below News in detail...

Pitt and Jolie to sue News of the World over 'split' story

Claim of separation 'false as well as intrusive', say lawyers, as Pitt and Jolie begin action in London high court

The Guardian, Tuesday 9 February 2010

As Hollywood's most famous power couple, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are used to every aspect of their life together being dissected in the world's media, whether it's rumours over yet another adoption, the meaning of a new tattoo, or their feelings about the other's exes.

But when the News of the World ran a front page story last month declaring the couple were splitting up after six years and as many children, and dividing their £205m joint fortune, the pair decided enough was enough, and wrote to the paper to demand an apology for these "false and intrusive allegations".

The tabloid refused to retract the story, or apologise, according to Pitt and Jolie's lawyers, and so yesterday the actors decided to sue. The couple "unequivocally" say that the story was false, and appear to be suing not for just for libel, but also for "misuse of private information", or privacy.

The action comes two years after the News of the World lost its privacy battle with Max Mosley when a high court judge ruled the F1 boss had a right to keep private his adventures with five dominatrices.

Pitt and Jolie began their legal action in the high court in London against News Group Newspapers, the News International subsidiary which publishes the News of the World. News Group is owned by Rupert Murdoch – as is 20th Century Fox, which made Mr and Mrs Smith, the film that gave the setting for Pitt and Jolie's blossoming love affair six years ago.

Keith Schilling of Schillings, their London lawyers, said yesterday the allegations had been reproduced in other newspapers. "The News of the World has failed to meet our clients' reasonable demands for a retraction of and apology for these false and intrusive allegations, which have now been widely republished by mainstream news outlets. We have advised them to bring proceedings, which they have now done."

Schillings said the News of the World article contravened the Press Complaints Commission code of conduct, which states that a significant inaccuracy, misleading statement or distortion "once recognised must be corrected, promptly and with due prominence, and – where appropriate – an apology published".

The law firm added that publication amounted to a serious misuse of private information; it was not required to disclose whether the information was true or false. "However in this case we can confirm unequivocally, and upon instructions, that the allegations published by the News of the World are false as well as intrusive," the firm said.

The News of the World alleged on 24 January that the couple visited a lawyer to begin thrashing out a separation deal and that, last month, they signed a deal to divide their wealth. The article also claimed their children would live with Jolie but Pitt would have visitation rights; the separation would occur imminently.

Pitt and Jolie have three adopted children – Maddox, eight, Pax, six, and Zahara, five – as well as Shiloh, three, and 17-month-old twins Knox and Vivienne.

Schillings also said some media reports falsely identified a woman called Sorrell Trope as the couple's lawyer. Trope gave a statement to Schillings saying: "I have had no contact from .... Angelina Jolie and/or Brad Pitt. I have never met your ... clients or had any involvement with either of them. The foregoing is true with respect to all other members of this firm".

The News of the World's story went round the world but was rubbished by news outlets such as TMZ.com, which broke news of Michael Jackson's death, and US celebrity magazine People.

Pitt and Jolie have never married. Pitt divorced Jennifer Aniston, in 2005 after five years of marriage. Jolie has been married twice, to actors Jonny Lee Miller and Billy Bob Thornton; both marriages ended in divorce.

A spokeswoman for the News of the World declined to comment.

In his action against the paper in 2008, Mosley was awarded £60,000 damages, after the judge, Mr Justice Eady, ruled: "The law now affords protection to information in respect of which there is a reasonable expectation of privacy, even in circumstances where there is no pre-existing relationship giving rise of itself to an enforceable duty of confidence."

o Angelina Jolie o Tattoos

2009-09-12T15:33:00.000-07:00

her numerous tattoos have been the subject of much media attention & have often been addressed by interviewers. She stated that, while Angelina Jolie is not opposed to film nuudity, the large number of tattoos on Angelina Jolie body has forced filmmakers to become more creative when planning nuude or love scenes. Make-up has been used to cover up the tattoos in many of her productions. She currently has 13 known tattoos, among them the Tennessee Williams quote "A prayer for the wild at heart, kept in cages", which Angelina Jolie got together with her mother, the Arabic language phrase "العزيمة" (strength of will), the Latin proverb "quod me nutrit me destruit" (what nourishes me destroys me), and a Yantra prayer written in the ancient Khmer script for her son Maddox. Angelina Jolie also has 6 sets of geographical coordinates on her upper left arm indicating the birthplaces of "Angelina Jolie" 's children. Over time Jolie covered or lasered several of her tattoos, including "Billy Bob", the name of her former husband Billy Bob Thornton, a Chinese character for death (死), and a window on her lower back; Angelina Jolie explained that she removed the window, because, while she used to spend all of her time looking out through windows wishing to be outside, she now lives there all of the time.

Angelina Jolie-In the media

2009-08-27T16:41:00.000-07:00

"Angelina Jolie-In the media"

She appeared in the media from an early age due to Angelina Jolie's famous father Jon Voight. At 7 Angelina Jolie had a small part in Lookin' to Get Out, a movie co-written by and starring Angelina Jolie's father, and in 1986 and 1988 Angelina Jolie attended the Academy Awards as a teenager with him. However, when Angelina Jolie started her acting career, she decided not to use "Voight" as a stage name, because Angelina Jolie wished to establish her own identity as an actress. She was never shy about controversy and integrated her teenage "wild girl" image into Angelina Jolie public persona in the 1st years of Angelina Jolie's career. During her acceptance speech at the 2000 Academy Awards, she declared, "I'm so in love with my brother right now", which, combined with her affectionate behavior towards him that night, sparked speculation in the tabloid media of an incestuous relationship with her brother James Haven. Angelina Jolie has denied those rumors vehemently, and she and Haven later explained in interviews that after their parents' divorce they relied on one another and because of that they hold on to each other as a means of emotional support.

She does not employ a publicist or an agent. Angelina Jolie quickly became a tabloid's favorite, since Angelina Jolie presented herself as very outspoken in interviews, discussing Angelina Jolie's love life and her interest in BDSM openly, and once claiming to be "most likely to sleep with a female fan". As one of her most distinctive physical features, her lips have attracted notable media attention and Angelina Jolie has been described as "the current gold standard of beauty in the West" among women seeking cosmetic surgery. Angelina Jolie also created headlines with her much publicized marriage to Billy Bob Thornton and her subsequent change into an advocate for global humanitarian problems. As Angelina Jolie took on the role of UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador Angelina Jolie started to use her celebrity to highlight humanitarian causes worldwide. She has been taking flying lessons since 2004 and Angelina Jolie has a private pilot license (with an instrument rating) and owns a Cirrus SR22 airplane. The media speculated that She is a Buddhist, but Angelina Jolie said that she teaches Buddhism to her son Maddox because Angelina Jolie considers it part of his culture. She has not stated definitively whether or not Angelina Jolie believes in God. When asked in 2000 if there was a God, Angelina Jolie said, "For the people who believe in it, I hope so. There doesn't need to be a God for me."

"Angelina Jolie-Children"

On March 10, 2002, Angelina Jolie adopted her 1st child, 7-month-old Maddox Chivan. He was born on August 5, 2001 as Rath Vibol in Cambodia, and he initially lived in a local orphanage in Battambang. Angelina Jolie decided to apply for adoption after Angelina Jolie had visited Cambodia twice, while filming Tomb Raider and on a UNHCR field trip in 2001. After her divorce from her second husband, Billy Bob Thornton, Jolie received sole custody of Maddox. Like Jolie's other children, Maddox has gained considerable celebrity and appears regularly in the tabloid media.

Angelina Jolie adopted a 6-month-old girl from Ethiopia, Zahara Marley, on July 6, 2005. Zahara was born on January 8, 2005. Angelina Jolie was originally named Yemsrach by her mother, and was later given the legal name Tena Adam at an orphanage. Angelina Jolie adopted her from Wide Horizons For Children orphanage in Addis Ababa. Shortly after they returned to the United States, Zahara was hospitalized for dehydration and malnutrition. In 2007, media outlets reported Zahara's biological mother, Mentewabe Dawit, was still alive and wanted her daughter back, but she later denied these reports, saying she thought Zahara was "very fortunate" to be adopted by Jolie.

Brad Pitt was reportedly present when "Angelina Jolie" signed the adoption papers and collected her daughter; later Angelina Jolie indicated that she and Pitt made the decision to adopt Zahara together. On January 19, 2006, a judge in California approved Pitt's request to legally adopt Jolie's two children. Their surnames were formally changed to "Jolie-Pitt".

Angelina Jolie gave birth to a daughter, Shiloh Nouvel, in Swakopmund, Namibia, by a scheduled caesarean section, on May 27, 2006. Brad Pitt confirmed that their newly-born daughter would have a Namibian passport, and Angelina Jolie decided to sell the 1st pictures of Shiloh through the distributor Getty Images herself, rather than allowing paparazzi to make these valuable photographs. People paid more than $4.1 million for the North American rights, while British magazine Hello! obtained the international rights for roughly $3.5 million. All profits were donated to an undisclosed charity by Jolie and Pitt. Madame Tussauds in New York unveiled a wax figure of two-month-old Shiloh; it was the first infant re-created in wax by Madame Tussauds.

On March 15, 2007, Angelina Jolie adopted a 3-year-old boy from Vietnam, Pax Thien, who was born on November 29, 2003 and abandoned at birth at a local hospital, where he was initially named Pham Quang Sang. Angelina Jolie adopted the boy from the Tam Binh orphanage in Ho Chi Minh City. Angelina Jolie revealed that his first name, Pax, was suggested by her mother before her death.

Following months of tabloid speculation, "Angelina Jolie" confirmed she was expecting twins at the 2008 Cannes Film Festival. Angelina Jolie gave birth to a boy, Knox Léon, and a girl, Vivienne Marcheline, by caesarean section at the Lenval hospital in Nice, France, on July 12, 2008. The rights for the first images of Knox and Vivienne were jointly sold to People and Hello! for $14 million—the most expensive celebrity pictures ever taken. The money went to the Jolie/Pitt Foundation.

Angelina Jolie - Brangelina Relationships

2009-08-10T23:33:00.000-07:00

Angelina Jolie, on March 28, 1996, she married British actor Jonny Lee Miller, her co-star in the film Hackers (1995). Angelina Jolie attended her wedding in black rubber pants and a white shirt, upon which she had written the groom's name in her blood. Jolie and Miller separated the following year and subsequently divorced on February 3, 1999. Angelina Jolie and Onny Lee Miller remained on good terms and Angelina Jolie later explained, "It comes down to timing. I think he's the greatest husband a girl could ask for. I'll always love him, we were simply too young." While shooting Pushing Tin (1999) Angelina Jolie met American actor Billy Bob Thornton, and subsequently married him on on May 5, 2000. As a result of their frequent public declarations of passion and gestures of love—most famously wearing one another's blood in vials around their necks—their relationship became a favorite topic of the entertainment media. Angelina Jolie and Billy Bob Thornton divorced on May 27, 2003. Asked about the sudden dissolution of their marriage, Angelina Jolie stated, "It took me by surprise, too, because overnight, we totally changed. I think one day we had just nothing in common. And it's scary but... I think it can happen when you get involved and you don't know yourself yet."

Angelina Jolie has said in interviews that Angelina Jolie is bis*xual and has long acknowledged that Angelina Jolie had a s*xual relationship with Angelina Jolie's Foxfire (1996) co-star Jenny Shimizu, "I would probably have married Jenny if I hadn't married my husband. I fell in love with her the first second I saw her." In 2003, asked if Angelina Jolie was bis*xual, Angelina Jolie responded, "Of course. If I fell in love with a woman tomorrow, would I feel that it's okay to want to kiss and touch her? If I fell in love with her? Absolutely! Yes!"

In early 2005, Angelina Jolie was involved in a well-publicized Hollywood scandal when Angelina Jolie was accused of being the reason for the divorce of actors Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston. The allegation was that Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt had started an affair during filming of Mr. & Mrs. Smith (2005). Angelina Jolie denied this on several occasions, but admitted that they "fell in love" on the set. In an interview in 2005, Angelina Jolie explained, "To be intimate with a married man, when my own father cheated on my mother, is not something I could forgive. I could not look at myself in the morning if I did that. I wouldn't be attracted to a man who would cheat on his wife."

While Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt never publicly commented on the nature of their relationship, speculations continued throughout 2005. The first intimate paparazzi photos emerged in April, one month after Aniston had filed for divorce; they showed Brad Pitt, Angelina Jolie and her son Maddox at a beach in Kenya. During the summer Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt were seen together with increasing frequency and most of the entertainment media considered them a couple, dubbing them "Brangelina". On January 11, 2006, Jolie confirmed to People that Angelina Jolie was pregnant with Pitt's child and thereby confirmed their relationship for the first time in public.

Cyborg 2

2009-04-17T04:17:00.000-07:00

Angelina Jolie in Cyborg 2 as Casella "Cash" Reese.

Cyborg 2 was released in some countries as Glass Shadow. Cyborg 2 is a 1993 science fiction action film directed by Michael Schroeder. Cyborg 2 is the direct sequel to the 1989 film Cyborg. It is notable as the 1st film to feature Angelina Jolie in a starring role (Angelina Jolie had previously made one earlier film as a child actress). Cyborg 2 was followed by the 1994 direct-to-video release Cyborg 3: The Recycler.

Better than the original.,

Earth, 2074. The field of cybernetics is dominated by two corporations – Kobayashi Electronics & Pinwheel Robotics. The execs over at Pinwheel plan to destroy Kobayashi by sending in Casella 'Cash' Reese, a female cyborg containing 'Glass Shadow' (a powerful plastic explosive), to a conference & detonating her. With the help of Mercy, a mysterious cyborg who projects himself onto TV screens, Cash & her human combat trainer Colton Ricks escape the compound & flee across the city. With Pinwheel troopers & a psychotic bounty hunter after them, they attempt to make it to freedom.

CYBORG was a low-budget, mindless post-apocalyptic martial-arts flick that featured Jean-Claude Van Damme taking on numerous thugs & trying to rescue a female cyborg. It became a cult film & inspired two sequels.

While the first film was nothing more than a series of watered-down heroics that had almost no plot, "Cyborg 2: Glass Shadow" is the complete opposite, a futuristic sci-fi film with an intelligent storyline & a Cyberpunk atmosphere. It is also the rare occasion where a sequel proves to be better than the original.

"Glass Shadow" is set sometime after the events of the first film, although the continuity is somewhat screwed up (society had collapsed in the original & a nasty plague had swept through the world). The society here is akin to a corporate-run city, nothing like the original (there are a few clips taken from the original shown on TV screens). The storyline is quite simple – female cyborg is created as a walking bomb, said cyborg tries to flee her fate, her creators send in bounty hunters to catch her – but done in an intelligent manner.

The acting is superb, with due credit given to Jack Palance, who gives one of his best performances, as the cyborg warrior / poet who appears on TV screens like a ghost; Elias Koteas, who plays his role in deadpan fashion & Tracy Walter shines in a cameo as a doctor. Angelina Jolie, in the days before she became a superstar, gives a robotic performance as the cyborg Cash, although this fits in with the rest of the film. The visual effects in this film are excellent, most notably the opening scene with a cyborg being built, some prosthetics work & an exquisite model city.
