First we offered you a sneak peek at the cover of the November issue of W magazine featuring Angelina Jolie.
Now we have some excerpts of the busy mom’s revealing interview with Parade magazine!
Without further ado, here are some highlights:
Angelina on staying friends with her exes: “I have two divorces behind me but I’m still good friends with both my exes, Billy Bob and Jonny Lee [Miller]. I’ve never had to deal with secrets from the men in my life because I’ve always married artists and they’re a very talkative and expressive bunch. I wouldn’t have it any other way.”
Angelina on whether she believes in fate: “Only in a positive way.When I met my son Maddox, I went to Cambodia and left feeling I’d left something behind. I went back on a humanitarian mission and I felt, ‘My son’s here.’ It was the strangest feeling. I woke up that morning thinking, ‘They’re going to introduce me to my kid today and I wonder how I’m going to feel.’ And the moment I saw Maddox I knew I was his mother. I can’t explain it.”
Angelina on dealing with fame and celebrity: “I’m just a mom and I’m very grounded by my family. I’m very happy, and I’m so lucky. The world can like me, hate me, fall apart around me, and at least, you know, I wake up with my little kids and I’m happy.”

Just what she has done in her personell life adopting childern is amazing enough and has had an impact on on society!
Awe…………isnt that just so “special”
I think this is a compilation of various other interviews but that’s cool, I still love it. Oh, and the W is WOW! So sweet.
Can you lick her arse anymore? My gosh, she’s not the only one who has adopted children you know. I was watching this British programme and it honours people for what they have done. This lady was in her 50s and had adopted over 20 children. You don’t see her going on about it in the papers ect. no one would have known if it wasn’t for that programme. What Angelina does is good, but fuck licking her backside and praising her like shes some sort of angel…there’s better out there.
Amen post number 4!
If she cares so little about the world thinks about her, why does she feel the need to shout on the rooftops how fabulously happy she is? Live your life, get off of magazine covers and shut the fuck up.
I love it! Go Angie we missed you so much.
I love that last comment. I think it’s absolutely gorgeous and you can just tell she means it. I think she is an amazing mother and a very interesting person to listen to.
Omg! This chick loves to talk about all the good she does makes you wonder huh? I so agree with #4.
