Will Angelina Meet Karma?
How the mighty have fallen.
Although in this case, the ‘might’ happened after the fall, so you could call it the uprising instead. But I’ll go with my original statement.
How the mighty have fallen.
Angelina Jolie, patron saint of all things pouty, holier-than-thou, smug and maternal, if those who swear by her parental skills are anything to go by, was indeed the wild child she claimed she was before she settled down to a manufactured world of blissful domesticity with the then sexiest man about tinsel town, Brad Pitt. Who woulda thunk?
Andrew Morton’s unauthorized biography of the ice queen-to-beat-all-ice-queens promises to be controversial, given the pre-release hype and hoopla that surrounds it. Its release date got pushed up by three days and it hits stores in the US on July 31, because way too many lurid details have already surfaced online. According to Star Magazine, the book contains several risqué photographs of Angie in various states of undress, with a dog leash around her neck, with just a thong – and her tattoos – on, and suchlike, in what is seen as an S&M/drug-induced haze setting. Kinky much.
La Jolie has always been outspoken about her experiments with sex, drugs and life in the fast lane, but her carefully crafted public persona after setting up home and hearth with Pitt has come under severe scrutiny ever since news broke out about Brangelina’s split deal earlier this year. They’ve since successfully sued the publication that first broke the story and are said to be donating the money to one of the charities they support.
Given her penchant for PR and masterful media manipulation, I wouldn’t be surprised if this pictorial proof of her “wild past” was orchestrated by her – any kind of publicity is good, right? Whenever there have been negative sentiments about her, she’s staged photo-ops in lesser parts of the world, hugging a malnourished child here, squatting by the bedside of an ill woman there or looking pensive about the oh-so-cruel world that greets her every time she turns her gaze away from her chateau in France or villa in Italy.
And every single time there have been rumours of a split between her and her fresh-off-the-beard-boat partner, there have been those gondola rides with their rainbow family, big grins and touchy-feely appearances with beau Brad at Hollywood shindigs and those vociferous assertions of their still active sex life in grottos, dens, on the kitchen table and maybe a mile-high orgasm in their private jet thrown in here and there for good measure. (If the latter hasn’t yet happened, well, there’s a thought, Ange.)
From what I’ve read about the tell-all bio so far, the most “scandalous” bits are – she has low self-esteem thanks to very self-involved parents during her childhood; she lost her virginity to her first boyfriend Anton at the age of 14 (who moved into their house and into her room with her mother’s blessing!); she still has “daddy” issues (which somehow are seen as the reason she’s wont to home-wrecking) and those lurid photographs which prove “beyond a doubt” that she’s lived wild and wanton with absolute abandon in her early days.
Her smooth, alabaster skin is the talk of the town as she flits from one lucky country to another (no starving children in any of the countries that feature in Salt’s promo blitz – see what I’m talking about?). Granted she’s drop-dead gorgeous – who wouldn’t be with a skillful plastic surgeon and millions in the bank? Even I, honey, even I. But nothing about her face has not seen the inside of a plastic surgeon’s office or the glint of his scalpel, and no, there was no innuendo in that line.
Believe me, I tried.
Like this New York Times review of the book says – Homewrecker first, humanitarian next.
Angie apologists (they’re a dime a dozen, if not more) will claim that there’s nothing new that the book has to offer and that she’s been nothing but truthful about her colourful past, but the timing of this somehow begs the question – is this the road where this bewitching beauty, the world’s perfect woman, meets Karma, the woman not to be messed with?
Because, you know, if one’s a witch, the other’s a…

Yep, Angelina inspire broken homes aka Uma Thurman and kids lost their husband/father during and after Jolie Ethan Hawke costarring. She was after Olivie Martinez but he stayed with Kyle who later was diagnosis with cancer. She also inspired breakup in Nic Cage and Rosanne Arquette, Ralph Fiennes’s ten-year relationship with Francesca Annis, Billy Bob Thornton and Laura Dern, and more recently Brad Pitt and JENNIFER ANISTON. She was really inspiring with Mick Jagger who was still married to the mother of his children.
She is way more interested in being a showboating celebrity in competition with the respectable Hollywood then ever is she interested in REAL humanity. If she cares so much for poor people maybe such caring shouldn’t feature in the media so timely as her conquest of another woman’s man blowing up in her face or entrapment based relationship also evidence of home wrecking coming to a horrendous public ending repeatedly.
Yeah… she so inspirational… Broken heart African mother wants her child back even now and Angelina ignores her and calls her a liar. What about calling Shiloh an outcast and mistreating her badly cause she wasn’t like her orphans. Angelina is insane, unstable and a lunatic.
If she cares about anything maybe we all should not have in on front covers inflicting of our lives five minutes later…. Publicity whores are the worst kind of celebrity! Angelina should get over herself.
If it were not for her whoring out the stolen from Jen Brad Pitt she would still be hiding out all alone in England just as she was for years after Billy Bob came to his senses and left her.

There is no words to express such a nice and very good celebrity.
Her action is pretty good. I’m very good fan helping of Anjelina Jolie.
The way she is helping for refugees. Awesome. There is only few people in this earth having such a nice heart to help others.
I love to read her biography. Looking for “NOTES FROM MY TRAVELS”.

Sunil Sawant on August 1, 2010 at 10:01 am
she is already a bigger celebrity than your Big B and SRK ! Do you think she needs to do all this for publicity!? get rid of these complexes –!acknowledge- that we Indians cant even think of doing ourselves these big charities but we surely know how to criticise all those who do that!typical of my countrymen!
Angelina gives me ten thousand volts current she is superp actress and very hotAngelina, not only you your heart is also very beautiful. Hatsoff!she is so hot and her eyes are very very attarctiveshe is very prettyShe is the best and I will always LOVE her.Nothing new about it.Eve was nude when she was created by God.but the
difference is that she was innocent.
she is my favourite
She is really gorgeous I m fan of her beauty and boldness onscreenShe is a celebriry; being nude is nothing awkward thing for her; its a normal process and there is nothing wrong in it for her; anyways she is an actress and hungry for publicity and she is beautiful externally, but now she wants to show her inner beauty completely to all; as usual and as simple in fashion industry and for celebrities!!! infact she would try for something more than being nude; lets see

Angie,the only fantastic dame around in her age. She still can keep doing wonders.Good article.

Hasn’t anybody noticed dark circles below her eyes ? these signs of aging probably makes people indulge in activities to try and prove (to themselves) that they are still attractive and charismatic. GOD BLESS her .
