Angelina Jolie Says Bye Bye.

Thursday, November 13th, 2008

Angelina Jolie

Kind of.

No, no, no…The Saint of the World is not pregnant again. The woman JUST gave birth to twins a short time ago for gawd’s sake. And no, no, no she’s NOT leaving her love partner Brad Pitt because of Jennifer Aniston’s “uncool” jab.

However, Saint Angelina has announced that she plans on bowing out of acting to stay home with her 3949458 kids. It should come as no surprise to anyone especially because her love for her children is apparent.

When interviewed by the BBC while promoting her new film, Changeling, Angelina revealed that she would not be acting for much longer. Boo. Sad, I know.

Asked in the interview whether she thought the possibility of her looks fading could affect a lengthy career, Jolie said: ‘I don’t think about it much because I don’t plan to keep acting very long.’

‘I’m ready to do a few things now and fade away and get ready to be a grandma one day. So I’m not so worried that I want to keep this pace up and try to be something and be a celebrity and be a successful actress forever.

I think it’s nice, I’ve had a time to tell stories and be able to be successful enough to tell the ones I want to tell, and (to) earn some money at the same time is great.

But everything comes in seasons and, you know, I hopefully won’t be needing to do that later in my life in any way.”

However, she could pull a Michael Jordan and come back for one hot minute.

Asked if she had given herself a cut-off point when she no longer wanted to be an actress, Jolie said: “I don’t think I’ll ever say I’m never ever going to work because maybe there’s that interesting project where I feel creative - but certainly I think now I haven’t worked for a year.

“I’ll work for a few months in February. I won’t work again probably for another year. So maybe it’ll be once a year and maybe it’ll be once every three years and just naturally - I like being home a lot these days.”

My prediction is within 6 months, the Jolie-Pitt brood will have yet another child added to the mix. From which country? THAT is the tricky question.

Clint Eastwood And Angelina’s Tender Reunion.

Tuesday, October 28th, 2008

angelina17

The pearly white gates of the high heavens unfolded the wings of Saint Angelina and released her to attend the Hollywood Film Festival Awards Gala where she was to sprinkle her angel dust on the man who worships her most…Clint Eastwood. While Clint Eastwood received honors from his fellow A-listers, Saint Angelina shocked the attendees with her surprise entrance.

In fact, Ange’s fellow Hollywood stars gasped in shock of Jolie’s presence. I mean, wasn’t she just in Afghanistan on a humanitarian mission? Ummmm yeah she was peeps, but remember, this is Saint Angelina…she can be here, there, anywhere in just a click of her heels and a sway of her wand.

Making the honorary presentation to Eastwood, Angelina granted her worshipper more power to be saying, “There are some people in this business that are icons, and we often wonder if, when we meet them, they’ll live up to what we imagine them to be. And Clint Eastwood in person is even better. Clint is what every great director should be. He is a great leader. And I certainly would follow him anywhere.”

Clint turned the compliment around in praise of St. Angelina’s perfect parenting skills and her flawless beauty. Clint then knelt down on the floor in front of Angelina and kissed her angelic feet and opened his mouth while Angelina sprinkled her magic pixie dust onto Clint’s tongue. Well, no that didn’t really happen, but pretty damn close!

Instead, Eastwood praised Jolie saying, ‘Working with someone like Angelina Jolie is a great privilege, because you get to look on that gorgeous beauty every day, And she’s a great talent.”

(Eastwood directed Jolie in the movie “Changeling”.)

Oh yeah, he forgot to mention how perfectly perfect she is.
