I take back every bad thing I said about Angelina Jolie.

[speedoo]

Saw her on TDS. She's a wonderful actress, a person of principle and charity, and a beautiful woman. Best of all, I actually think she's for real... not a phony bone in her body.:applause:

[Starbucks Anarchist]

1. I heard she gives 1/3 of her money to charity.

[begin_within]

2. Not a phony bone, but what's inside those damned lips? Jimmy Hoffa?

[idgiehkt]

9. I saw a picture of her when she was about 12

and she had freakish, Mick Jagger looking lips. Not saying she isn't hitting the collagen since she's aged a bit, but they really have always been big.

edit: here is a link that has a before and after picture that says she's had collagen in the upper lip and, believe it or not, a nose job:

I think it's interesting what they are saying about cheek implants, I think they are way more common among actors than people realize. I am watching a show now where they are in reruns from a few years ago vs. just having been current and I swear two of the female leads have gotten cheek implants since the show started.

14. In those photos, her lips look more normal today.

[idgiehkt]

24. because it says she had

collagen in the upper one and the lower one reduced.

but they have always been large.

[LostinVA]

17. That site is sometimes off the mark, and I think they are in this instance

Same nose to me, and I doubt the cheek implants: her father and brother have cheekbones very much like hers. She's pretty young in the "before" photos, and her looks hadn't fully matured.

[dropkickpa]

21. Here's her parents

Big lips run in that fambly.



I'm not sure I believe the cheek implant thing, one picture of her from when she was what, 12-14 years old, the other from now. I certainly look a LOT different than I did when I was 14. The nose looks more refined, but, in a head on shot, you can tell it's the same.

3. I think she's sincere, too...

She impresses me as being intelligent and well-informed.

[Lethe]

4. she is bat shit crazy and is playing all of you

dude, seriously, you doubt the judgement of someone named Billy Bob?

she is the undoing of modern society. And Giada de Laurentiis is way hotter and she can cook some serious italian food.

[Onceuponalife]

5. Giada who?

Seriously, how could anyone say anything bad about the goddess that is Angelina?

[Divameow77]

23. Yeah, Giada's hot...

if you like bobble heads.

[WCGreen]

6. And you could see ever bone in her body....

I was going, eat something, girl...

Have a Root Beer Float, for Christ Sake...

Man she use to be luscious but now, she looks like she lives in Africa...

[Lethe]

7. totally man

she needs to go get a philly cheese steak. Good god all the women think they have to be 90 lbs to be beautiful bah! No thank you!

[WCGreen]

8. Well, even her lips looked skinny....

[Lindsey]

10. I just saw her on Larry King and I think she's an incredible woman

I think a lot of people hold her past against her. She was in her 20's when she did her wacko stuff. She's matured into a socially conscious woman. Adopting proverty stricken kids, bringing major awareness to the devastation in other parts of the planet, joining Brad in their efforts to do whatever they can in New Orleans, giving 1/3 of her money to charity, being a constant advocate for those who don't have a voice....in my book, she's a saint and I don't care what she did in the past - just look at what she's doing now. Wow.

[Zuiderelle]

22. I agree with you. It's a mark of true character to continue to learn in life.

And she's doing more for the world than the lot of us combined.

[WCGreen]

25. I didn't say what she was doing wasn't altruistic....

I just was really concerned that she has adopted this new thin crap that could, in deed, affect how young woman perceive themselves...

And, if it wans't for her beauty, she wouldn't have the stage she has...

So if I think she is setting a bad example as appearing borderline anorexic, I will point that out...

[Guava Jelly]

11. I wouldn't kick her out of bed for eating crackers

I saw her on Larry King yesterday.
I think she has a good heart.
And she sure as shit isn't stupid.

[Inchworm]

12. I've been thinkin the same of her

power for good!

:hi:

[hickman]

13. I still think she's an entitled creep.

She is not a Diana.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

18. diana as in princess diana?

royalty ofcourse is completely not based on entitlement. :rofl:

[LostinVA]

19. I agree -- I think she's far more sincere than Princess Diana was in most things

I give Diana props for her AIDS and land mines work, but she didn't change her lifestyle and living standards to reflect her charity work -- it stayed charity.


I'm not snarking at you, but I think it's interesting you think Jolie is entitles but Lady Diana Spencer/Diana, Princess of Wales wasn't.

[LostinVA]

15. Agreed

She and Ashley Judd both give alot of time and money to great causes. And, more than that, live their lives in waya that goes along with what they say.

[La Lioness Priyanka]

16. i wish i could be angelina jolie. i respect her to no end.

and she is drop dead gorgeous.

[Crazy Dave]

20. Her and Sandra Bullock....

....both beautiful and genuinely charitable. Unlike most celebrities who only help raise money and get paid to do so, they donate their own personal money like you and me. Sandra gave $2 million of her own money to the tsunami victims in '05.
