Angelina Vanity Fair Photos Will Leave. You. Breathless.

Posted by Sassy Smith

 

 

Angelina Jolie - whether pregnant or not - is stunning.  Her recent Vanity Fair interview and photos were out of this world.  Even though she's not like us, she is.  And seriously, who else can wear a hideous bright green wig and still look magnificent?  Okay me, but really, who else?  Angie gives us an open look as to who she is, and we see her vunerable and human - and let's not forget, beautiful.

More photos after the jump!

About Maddox:

“A nurse came with Maddox and left 10 minutes after handing him over,” she said. “I stared at this little guy. I didn’t know what to do. I called my mom. I remember saying, ‘Do kids have 2 or 10 bottles a day? I’m at a loss.’ I had never babysat, let alone … ”

Crying as she said this about her mom:

“I had to be responsible for getting the morgue to pick her body up,” said Jolie. “She was in Cedars [Sinai, in Los Angeles]. All I had to do is remind myself that she’s my best girlfriend and she’s not in any more pain. I’m so happy for her. As much as I miss her, I’m a good enough friend not to have wanted her to stay in pain any longer.”

About getting involved with refugees:

“I traveled to Cambodia for the first Tomb Raider,” she told me. “I got to this country and expected broken, angry people, and found smiling, kind, warm people. We were doing one shot, and they said, ‘Don’t move to the side, because there are mines over there.’ I’d go to the market and see the land-mine victims. That was one step in realizing there was so much of the world I was blind to.”

About reading tabloids:

“I would never do that,” she said, “because I have good friends I would be reading about and I don’t want it even in my head … a negative fairy tale about somebody I like. I don’t want it in my thoughts. I owe it to them not to pay attention. I know it’s not true. Over 95 percent of what’s said about us is entirely untrue.”

On how artists raise their kids:

“Artists raise their kids differently,” she said. “We communicate to the point where we probably annoy our children. We have art around the house, we have books, we go to plays, we talk. Our focus is art and painting and dress-up and singing. It’s what we love. So I think you can see how artists in some way raise other artists.”

Catch your breath yet?

If you had a touch-up artist following you around 24/7 you'd look that good, too. Yes, she's a beautiful woman but you can totally tell that those photos have been worked over and but good.

Come on, instead of saying that because they are artists they do better things for your children she could have/should have said that because they are good parents they do those things.  My parents are by no means artists and we did all the things Angelina says they do with their kids.  My husband and I do them with our ds.  Give me a break...talk about an elitist attitude.

She is a lovely creature & they did a great job photoshopping the giant veins on her too thin hands... She still needs to eat more.
