A mother’s love…

Angelina favors her adopted children more than she does her natural-born daughter. Huh? In the February issue of Elle U.K., she opens her mouth and as usual controversy follows…

On the different love she feels for her kids:
“I think I feel so much more for Madd and Zee because they’re survivors, they came through so much. Shiloh seemed so privileged from the moment she was born. I have less inclination to feel for her…I met my other kids when they were six months old, they came with a personality. A newborn really is this…yes, a blob! But now she’s starting to have a personality…I’m conscious that I have to make sure I don’t ignore her needs, just because I think the others are more vulnerable.”

On how she hasn’t changed Brad:
“We came together because we’re similar. We didn’t become similar after…He’s a really amazing father – he didn’t just become that around me. You could say he changed me. I wasn’t planning on getting pregnant. I’m the one that got knocked up! So if you look at it that way, it was me who had the reversal.”

On fame:
“When I first became a public person it was terrible. I was unhappy and self-destructive. There is no reason for somebody to be getting all this attention just for doing a movie. So it doesn’t feel good…”

On flying:
“It’s a freedom I have always wanted, and as an actress, I don’t have a practical skill. What I do for a living is emote. So it was nice to learn something, to study the manual, read the maps."

Girlie time with Brad

Brad Pitt digs motorcycles, piloting airplanes and… skin cream?

Cate Blanchett reveals that when she co-starred with Brad in "The Curious Case of Benjamin Button" the prosthetic make-up he had to wear caused him to break out in a rash.

She says, "We went through three weeks of make-up tests and he was covered in eczema from it all. We were talking about what we were going to do because our skin was taking a battering."

"So I had this girlie conversation with him and put these skin creams down, lined them up in front of him and he and Angelina went around the table trying them."

Girlie conversation with Brad Pitt… did they also play truth or dare and have a sleepover?

Quote of the Day

angelina jolie brad pitt jennifer aniston

"She does one of the worst things a woman could do. One scene I actually had trouble shooting because I’m so against that behaviour."

"She seduces him, and entraps him into having a child. There’s not much worse than that, is there? But they’re both at fault. They both had sex that night."

– Angelina Jolie discusses her new film "The Good Shepherd" in Grazia magazine.

Quote of the Day

angelina jolie no hugs

"It’s not going to accomplish anything to cry. It’s not going to help you to get a hug!"

"I’m not a hugger. People make fun of me. It’s something that I have a hard time with. If someone hugs me, I hold my breath."

"Snuggling, cuddling, hugging, crying … all that stuff makes me very uncomfortable."

– Angelina Jolie… how does she raise three children with this attitude?

Angelina not holding back in new interview

In the January issue of Vogue, set to hit newsstands Friday, Angelina finally opens up about the entire Brangelinaniston love triangle…

Just to rub it in Jen’s face now that she’s down!

On Aniston:

Jolie initially denies that she has met Aniston, but she clarifies herself. “We’ve, like, passed each other and said ‘hi’ briefly, shook hands. But not a real sit-down-and-talk kind of meeting.” Will they have a proper meeting? “That would be her decision, and I would welcome it.”

Ouch!

On her life with Brad:

“Brad was a huge surprise to me. I, like most people, had a very distant impression of him from … the media. I am just as guilty! … We push each other to be better. Even if it’s just a better bike rider or a better pilot. We’re constantly in competition with each other. He’s somebody I admire based on the way he lives his life. And that’s why I’m with him.” He is also “the person closest to me.”

Their relationship:

Jolie and Pitt weren’t looking for love on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith, but she admits that is where they started to fall in love. During filming, the co-stars “found this strange friendship and partnership that kind of just suddenly happened. I think a few months in I realized, God, I can’t wait to get to work. Whether it was shooting a scene or arguing about a scene or gun practice or dance class or doing stunts — anything we had to do with each other, we just found a lot of joy in it together and a lot of real teamwork.”

After a lot of contemplation, “life developed in a way where we could be together, and where it felt like something we would do, we should do.” But don’t expect them to marry. “We are legally bound to our children, not to each other, and I think that’s the most important thing.”

So she’s basically admitting she cheated and she’s been denying it for over a year. Jen’s going to love this!
