And it's all about the orphans. Angelina Jolie appeared yesterday at a press conference for the launch of Global Action for Children, a group that raises money for orphans in developing countries.

"I am here to simply ask you to think about orphaned children not as a burden but as a great opportunity," Jolie said at the event. "Their education is an investment in our future. ... They have had to work very, very hard to survive, but when they are given a chance, they grow strong, stronger than most. ... The Lost Boys of Sudan are a great example."
Global Action for Children aims to increase U.S. funding for orphans in developing countries by $2.5 billion per year.

Aren't the Lost Boys of Sudan vampires?

She cares too much about the orphans of other countries when she should be thinking of the orphaned kids in AMERICA ... why not help them?
Why do the kids in other countries comes first? I'm not saying that adopting outside of America is bad .. I'm just saying that if your going to go fight for orphaned kids and be very public about it, I would think the ones in your own country would come first and foremost. I dont agree with what she's doing, and I think she's just in it for publicity ... trying to look like a saint when she's not.

April 27, 2007 10:11 AM

Keep up the good Fight Angelina. You have a lot of people and organizations behind you.

April 27, 2007 10:13 AM

Miss T you're an idiot.

Miss T, Goodwill is Goodwill. Angie is trying to bring into focus the problems of orphans and she has chosen to highlight that of Sudan in this case, what is wrong with that. You most probably is ignorant about the situation of orphans in developing countries.

Do not worry, others are equally speaking for orphans in your country (USA). Please encourage Angie to do what she is doing.

April 27, 2007 10:17 AM

Funny, Because I am sure Angelina Jolie, would be the LAST person to refer to herself as a saint. Just not her style what so ever.

Angelina is right about one thing: the Lost Boys of Sudan are some pretty amazing examples of strength through adversity. It is amazing to me to see children who have suffered unspeakable horrors in their young lives, land on their feet no matter what is thrown at them. We can all learn from that, no matter who is bringing it to our attention...

Hmmm..

Didn't she just bring an "orphan" home not even a month ago? Oh yea, where she said she was going to stay home and adjust him to his new life? That her kids were the most important to her at the moment?

Since then, this chick has taken off to Chicago, now Washington D.C., they are going to uproot this whole brood to travel to Prague, then France (Cannes), then L.A., then New York.....for movie promotions...where those kids will end up staying with Care-givers while they play "movie stars".

Yea...way to go Ange.....what a wonderful way to adjust an orphan to his new family, his new lifestyle, by uprooting him from place to place, airport through airport, hotel to hotel, not even a month after he was adopted.

The woman is seriously WHACKED.

I think she should be more concerned about on HER own "orphans" that she plucked from 3rd world countries....then sitting up there on some soapbox telling OUR government, how to spend OUR hard earned TAX DOLLARS, overseas! Especially when those rich hollyweird types find ANY loophole they can, NOT to pay taxes! Hers of course, is funneling HER money through charitable foundations....thats the tax loophole she is using.

If you read correctly, people, Miss T is not saying that helping outside of the country is bad. She's simply asking why she doesn't give to this country. It's a reasonable question to ask.

April 27, 2007 11:04 AM

uh.....you T people need to get a grip, the reason you sound so dumb is your comments show your total lack of self awareness...........EVEN the orphans in this country have it WAYYYYYYYY better than these people, people living on the street in this country are better off than these people. EVEN Oprah won't give money to needy children in this country because she said all they want are fancy tennis shoes and Ipods, I think the fact that people want to B!TCH about everything someone is doing that is TRYING to help the world shows how ignorant Americans really are about their own priviledge.

Before you jump on me I'm an orphan, an NATIVE American and yeah buddy I pay taxes too. I'd like to think some of the money might do some good somewhere.

Here's my question for you, mysmichelle: if you are a Native American orphan from the USA, then you must know how important it is to get help in this country as well. You must have struggled very hard IN THIS country, correct? In other words, there are indeed struggling people (like yourself) IN THIS country as well, correct? I think that was Miss T's point.

April 27, 2007 11:27 AM

Ok for all you "God Bless America" types, wtf are you to tell someone how they can spend their money & time?? Being poor here is NOTHING like being poor in other countries. Here, you can get fed. Other places, there isn't any water food OR clothing. They're wearing rags on their distended little bellies because their rape-victim 13 year old mothers are dying of AIDS in a little mud n grass hut & can't feed them. If YOU'RE so concerned about American orphans, do something about it!

Some of us actually give to this country AND other countries, Jesse D, because we REALIZE that there is are PROBLEMS EVERYWHERE!!! We don't discrimate.

You can't make a comparison between living conditions for an orphan in the US and an orphan in a 3RD World country. I think she is giving a voice to orphans and disadvantaged people who otherwise would have no voice.

I know she's accused of being an attention seeker but if it brings help and aid to people who otherwise have nothing, how bad is that?

April 27, 2007 11:42 AM

If you wnat social reform contact your congressman and ask why isn't more money going to programs for children. Angie and Brad have given their time and money for Katrina. However, it is Angie's JOB as UN Ambassador to raise awareness to those who are not visible to the public eye. If anything her actions should inspire you to take a look at what YOU can do for others.

This bitch needs to stay home a couple days and take care of her own f'cking kids.

LookYourAnAss...still a moron.

April 27, 2007 11:45 AM

Miss T what are you doing for anyone? I of course expected to see a post from T-bone, spewing her hate and warped views of Angelina. Someone who is walking the walk not just talking the talk. T-bone, I see you didn't contact that therapist.

April 27, 2007 11:45 AM

I say you take care of home before anywhere else. There tons of kids in the states that needs helps.

But doing something somewhere is better than doing NOTHING!

I also believe charity begins at home. Her collection of 3rd world orphans will continue, and more nannies will have jobs thanks to AJ. This is just another reason for her to leave home, and leave the raising of her kids to someone else..She smiles a lot more when shes not with Brad and the brood! Poor Shiloh..

3rd world orphans look healthier than the thing in these pics.

Goddamn! She went from stunning to skeletal in two years.

Cadaverous face, veiny-bony arms, man hands, toothpick legs...NASTY!

No one is arguing that giving to other countries isn't a good thing -- stay on track here. You all jumped down Miss T's throat when she asked why Angelina doesn't give much to the USA, and it's a VALID question!

Yes, we are a priviledged country, but let me tell you this -- an unloved orphan is an unloved orphan! Use your heads people! Studies have shown that even monkeys can't survive on food alone! HELP IS NEEDED IN THIS COUNTRY AS WELL AS OTHERS! Pull you heads out of your anti-American asses! I deal every day with people who have NOTHING in this country, and their mental health issues, health development, learning and everything else suffer because of it. They are in need as well!!! It's just not as glamorous to give in this country! And that's the bottom line!

Angelina obviously is a good hearted person. She really cares about these kids. People hate, for some reason, to give the girl credit, but I applaud her. For people who think this is all for attention, WHY would she spend millions for attention? There are other much less expensive ways to get attention than taking in orphans, having to clothe, feed ,educate them, and giving away millions of dollars. For some reason she sets some people completely off. I better stop before my head is bit off.

She sets people off because she's a coked up whore that collects kids for attention.

You don't "get it" because you too stupid to see it.

April 27, 2007 12:00 PM

I do believe she cares about her causes. What she chooses to spend her money on is her business. Instead of questionong what charities she gives her money to, why don't people question why other celebrities and wealthy americans choose to do nothing? Angelina can't do it alone. People are constantly praising Jennifer Aniston in comparison to Angelina, but Jennifer chooses to buy million dollar jewelry. She's not the only selfish one, I'm just using her as an example since she and Angelina are constantly compared. I think she is great for DOING something about these children wherever they happen to live. This country has agencies and welfare to help poor people. Poor people here have an oportunity to make it. Poor people here are poor, but not destitute. She's making a difference.

April 27, 2007 12:01 PM

The United States cannot support the entire world. We give and we should give a tremendous amount of money for world aid, far more than any other country on earth. This is a UN issue. Angelina has bashed George Bush regarding orphans in Africa as far back as her Ann Curry interview at Shiloh's birth. The United States needs to take a long look at all our foreign aid in general and realign its gifts.

Anyhow, you know where you can go, and what you can do for me...

April 27, 2007 12:05 PM

Anyhow is just showing it's ignorance. It is just showing that they refuse to see reason. Anywho, let it go. They are the ignorant ones. Angelina is wonderful. She's not full of talk, but action. Those countries thank god for her.

T-Bone,
It seems we share similar employment/projects. I agree with most of what you said except the glamorous comment. I've found that lack of awareness is largely the behind the lack of funding for poverty-stricken in the U.S. Amazing as it may seem, a large majority of Americans think that people are living on the streets or in poverty because they choose to; they are viewed as lazy or non-fixable and unfortunately this includes their children most of the time. There are a handful of programs that are trying to help, but funding is always the problem.
It is good to hear some awareness of this problem. I just hope that everyone chooses a cause, no matter where it is, and extends themselves to help.
Now, shall I pass out the Midol in hopes that the name-calling can stop in these posts? Relax people, please!!!

April 27, 2007 12:10 PM

People go crazy about this woman. You have to give her credit for that. She sparks a commotion on these boards. I think the haters just want to use any thread about her as a chance to dog the woman. I don't see what the problem is. Aren't we all here to give an opinion? That's all any of this is, an opinion. Which we all have. None of it is fact. I like her because she does some good. If you don't, well, go ahead and not like her, but don't call me names for giving MY opinion.

Miss T is right on. Why not help your own countrymen? But Africa is always trés chic every 20 years or so, but then it will die down and people will go back to their own country and figure things out.

This is just a gossip website.

Angelina is just an actress who happens to be involved in charity work.

Let's keep it light. All this 'coked up whore' and 'these countries thank god for her' smacks of crazy.

Superfluous - read the string of posts here, if you don't like name-calling. I believe Miss T was called everything from ignorant to idiot to dumb, when all she did was make a point and ask a valid question.

Weak people will accept just about anything as an idol, even if she is a bull-shit guru who's biggest talent is media spin.

I agree with Miss T! I'm sick and tired of caring about other countries... Why can't your hearts Bleed for our own children! When are other countries going to care about the United States or even show the U.S. some respect. You go to these places and they HATE AMERICANS! Why? We give them so much. Lets start thinking about the children of our own country and caring a little more for them AND giving THEM the education they need to grow strong. They want an I-pod, Sneakers, whatever they want... Its only because they want to be more like our own children who have everything! If the kids that Angelina so loves knew about Ipods they'd want one too! And I believe that they would rather have an Ipod too then a decent meal.


At least Idol gave back some money to the poor of the United States - there would have been a lot less calls on Tuesday night if they hadn't.

April 27, 2007 12:34 PM

But it's not Angie's job to solve every problem everywhere. I don't see why it is necessary to change her focus from international affairs. There are plenty of people in the US that give to the US. The reason why we are hated is because of foreign policy, this war, and the fact that American government gives no money away for free. We only help those that have something to give in return. Besides look at the mess that is Katrina obviously our government doesn't care too much about America either.

April 27, 2007 12:38 PM

And another thing you never know one of these foreign orphans that Angie is trying to help could grow up and discover the cure for cancer or AIDS. We may live in America but we are still accountable to the world. We all affect each other in some way. Often it is not directly but indirectly. Good is good.

I find it funny that people use the whole "why not help the kids here?" routine so often with her. Are you implying that children here are more important that children here? If they're not, then helping children is helping children.

And honestly, if you care so much about the children here, why don't YOU do something about it?

A life is a life, regardless of where they happened to be born.

This is hilarious!

"ANGIE" barely takes care of what's in her own back yard, so yeah...let's not get her on board to save the rest of the world too.

April 27, 2007 12:49 PM

Hey at least we agree on something that Angie is not responsible for the rest of the world's problems. So her work shouldn't be criticized because people feel she doesn't give enough money, or aruge for the rights of American. Right T-Bone.

Instead of insulting each other, why not talk about ideas to make things happen...ask others what they are doing and what is working/not working. What can you do? Find out.
It is not about Angelina Jolie.

Ani -- right back to you, bud. If they're all equal, then help the "orphans" in the US as well! Don't discriminate!

When you have millions and millions of dollars and all the time in the world, it's really not that difficult to give, now is it? I'll tell you what's truly amazing in the world! It's when every-day people (those who are busting their asses to make a living, raising and taking care of families, not wealthy people) give the shirts off of THEIR backs for other people. THAT amazes me. Those are the people who should be up for sainthood -- not Angelina Jolie.

I think Angelina Jolie is an "Issue". It is quite refreshing to hear varied views and opinions about her. I want to conclude this debate by saying in our local palance "UNA WELL DONE - O". (I am a Nigerian and I live in Nigeria. Thank you all).

April 27, 2007 12:57 PM

T-Bone no one here is comparing her to sainthood just you. But that's good though because the more people hate on you means you're doing something very right.

Sue, uh, normally i hate to point out the obvious, but, check out the URL...this is a celebrity gossip sight, and this blog you are on, ACTUALLY IS ABOUT ANGELINA JOLIE.

Wow.

April 27, 2007 1:01 PM

I CANNOT BELIEVE THAT PEOPLE ACTUALLY GRIPE AND COMPLAIN ABOUT A PERSON WHO HELPS A PARTICULAR CHILD OVER ANOTHER....A CHILD IS A CHILD IS A CHILD IS A CHILD!!!!!! SHUT YOUR MOUTH!! WHEN YOU DONATE 1/3 OF YOUR SALARY TO HELP THE SUFFERING AND THE POOR AND THE SICK THAN YOU CAN SAY SOMETHING.....BUT HOW CAN YOU SAY ANYTHING BAD ABOUT THIS WOMAN THAT YOU DONT EVEN KNOW???? BE HAPPY THAT THE WORLD HAS SOMEONE LIKE HER IN IT, THINK OF HOW MUCH BETTER OFF THE WORLD WOULD BE IF THERE WERE MORE LIKE HER! EVERYTHING ANYBODY KNOWS ABOUT HER IS WHAT WE SEE OR HEAR IN THE MEDIA, YOU HAVE NO RIGHT TO SAY ANYTHING ABOUT HER, YET YOU PRETEND YOU KNOW HER HEART. YOU SHOULD BE ASHAMED OF YOURSELF TOO. IGNORANCE IS BLISS. THIS WOMAN IS NOT LIKE MANY OF YOU, SHE DOESNT SIT AROUND WATCHING CRAP HAPPEN, SHE GETS UP AND DOES SOMETHING ABOUT IT, DOES ANYTHING SHE CAN ABOUT IT AND ALL YOU CAN DO IS CONDEMN HER FOR IT.

April 27, 2007 1:10 PM

Um Angietothemax -- bad argument, bud. Being "hated" does not necessarily mean you're doing anything right! I think Hitler is probably a good example of that.

And by the way -- who here "hates" Angelina Jolie? Do I think she is full of sh*t? Yes. Do I think her lack of female friends is a tell-tale sign of her "I don't really like or care about other women" mentality? Yes, you bet. Do I think she has serious mental health issues that include a lack of feeling? Yes. Do I think she does half of what she does for the attention of men? Again, yes. Am I glad she's dishing out her own money to help orphans? Yep -- anything helps. Do I hate her? No, I don't care enough to hate her. But am I on to what she's doing? I believe I am :)

April 27, 2007 1:31 PM

Crystal -- everyone can handle a few caps on posts, but a full post in capital letters indicates that you have lost your mind.

T-Bone...

" a full post in capital letters indicates that you have lost your mind."

Well said...well said.

Maybe she just forgot her meds today...

April 27, 2007 1:38 PM

aside from all this...does anyone know what designer her handbag is? I love it.

Captain Obvious,

Is that the best and only comment you could come up with after all these posts?

Wow back at 'cha...

Sue...given your obvious limited mental capacity, I didn't want to waste anymore energy than necessary.

Kisses!

Angbag...that's a genuine Sudanese orphan skin bag from Angies new collection. She'll be thrilled you dig it.

April 27, 2007 2:10 PM

Clarice -- hilarious! Crude, but very funny.

Captain Obvious -- Sue is just trying to help, now be nice.

MJK -- yep meds..

Well Bless your heart

April 27, 2007 2:16 PM

There is a different between hating on someone and actually hating someone. Hating on someone is what you're doing right now. Criticizing everything they do holding them up for suspicion because they take the opportunity to go against the grain and is set apart from others. Bono doesn't get this type of negative attention, neither does Oprah. Mia Farrow did n't receive this kind of backlash. People hate on others that are doing what they wouldn't or couldn't do themselves.

April 27, 2007 2:23 PM

Oh Angietothemax, such delusions... People don't pick on Oprah, Bono or Mia Farrow because they all have the one thing that Angelina doesn't have -------- a genuine heart!

I think she needs to make a trip to the Wizard of Oz.

April 27, 2007 2:26 PM

Do I hate her? No, I don't care enough to hate her. But am I on to what she's doing? I believe I am :)

T-Bone

To Funny, You dont care enough to hate, but let there be a AJ thread/blog, and There You Are, Singing that same old broken record song. The same tired tirade.

She is a homewrecker
She is a man stealer
She collects babies
she is mental
She is on drugs
She and brad will be over soon
She does not love Shi
She is a whore
She just wants publicity.

It never changes, the same old thing over and over again. For the love of God can't you come up with something new. And if you don't care, Pleas oh please stop showing up on every singel Thread/blog that Angie is on. I always know EXACTLY what you are going to post

April 27, 2007 2:28 PM

But you don't KNOW that. You THINK that but you don't know for sure. The truth is you know very little about this person so you have created in your head who this person really is inside. Now that's delusion my friend.

April 27, 2007 2:43 PM

Angietothemax -- I don't think any of us out here know anything for sure, do we? It's all a matter of opinion and I, for one, am sticking to mine. The truth is, however, that only time will tell.

Lookwhaticando -- of course the argument is the same. Why wouldn't it be? Some of us are consistent.

April 27, 2007 2:47 PM

If there was something there it would've come out by now. She's been with the UN for 7 years now. If she wasn't genuine in her efforts it would've definitely shown by now. Besides Angie knows she's crazy she said it herself. But now her craziness has a purpose and it's not about being self destructive.

April 27, 2007 3:00 PM

Let me state my opinion again on Angelina Jolie, and you can do whatever you want with it, because it isn't gonna change.

Do I think Angelina is full of sh*t? Yes. Do I think her lack of female friends is a tell-tale sign of her "I don't really like or care about other women" mentality? Yes, you bet. Do I think she has serious mental health issues that include a lack of feeling? Yes. Do I think she does half of what she does for the attention of men? Again, yes. Am I glad she's dishing out her own money to help orphans? Yep -- anything helps. Do I hate her? No, I don't care enough to hate her.

Having said all of that, since I know that it's more than likely that there is a creator of the world, ultimately only that creator can read a heart. So the truth will come out in the end. But right now I'm highly skeptical of her motives.

The rest of you can think whatever you want. You're entitled. It's a free country (for the most part :) Knock yourselves out! Love the banter!

April 27, 2007 3:11 PM

T-bone, you are full of sh*t, and you know it. I have never seen anyone more full of hate for someone they don't know. I beg you to please get some sort of therapy. I'm scared for Angelina's safety.

April 27, 2007 3:17 PM

Crystal, I agree with you. Angelina has a heart of gold. T-bone, you have issues. You sit and talk the talk, but what are you doing to help anyone in this country? Angelina's money is HER money, she earned it and she is putting it to use. Mind your own money. Have you saved anyone's life? No, you're too obsessed with what she's doing with hers. No man can be "stolen", he has to want to go. Jennifer must not have been what he wanted. They were not a good match. She seems frigid and cold. Hopefully Vince will loosen her up a little.

April 27, 2007 3:18 PM

T-bone: I absolutely agree with everything you wrote, and I feel the same way, this is a blog site, everyone has a right to thier own opinion, I won't try and change yours, and you can't change mine. I think she is mentally unstable, she has issues with committment, thats why she won't marry brad, and keeps adopting kids, she gets bored easily. Don't like her, never did, never will.

April 27, 2007 3:21 PM

givemeabreak -- I think I'm rather rational, actually. And most of the people out here don't agree with you, so who again is full of sh*t?

But one thing I will say is this -- crying out and claiming that you're concerned for Angelina Jolie's safety because of these posts is a very, very serious claim. You might be taking things a little too seriously. If that is the case, you might not want to be out here, because people are, at times, going to agree with you and at times NOT agree with you.

Insinuating that anyone out here would actually harm another human being is very serious. You need to think before your write. And again, if you can't handle it out here or it truly upsets you too much, you need to stay off of this site.

April 27, 2007 3:28 PM

T-bone, I don't know what you would do. I do know that what is serious is the comments YOU have made about a person who you only know through the media. You seem to really have a problem with the woman. As far as people not agreeing with me, hey, it's a free country. Just like you seem to get insurmountable joy from dogging the woman every chance you get, i.e WHENVER anyone makes any kind of positive comment about her, I like to take up for her. I am judging her character from her acts these past years. Who are you to condemn someone a whore or a "loonie"? You obviously have some mental issues yourself. I guess you would be able to recoqnize if she truely did have issues seeing as how you seem to yourself...

Superfly and Gimmeabreak...

T-bone is 200 percent correct about the Whore being heartless. WHO'S life has she saved? NOBODY'S!!!

She has collected a few kids that she ignores and neglects.

AND AGAIN, the only one brining up Jennifer Aniston is YOU.

Someone is obsessed, yes, it's the pair of you.

April 27, 2007 3:30 PM

T-bone, Irrantional people never realize it. Give me a break, don't wear yourself out. T-bone will shoot venom @ Angelina even if Angelina saved T-bone. She/He seems to be just that way.

April 27, 2007 3:31 PM

T-bone, Irrational people never realize it. Give me a break, don't wear yourself out. T-bone will shoot venom @ Angelina even if Angelina saved T-bone. She/He seems to be just that way.

givemeabreak, get a grip. Over dramatic much?

no wonder you're an Ang Fan.

Just let go already chicken little.

April 27, 2007 3:34 PM

I agree. Let's not be mean. Nothing wrong with friendly banter and debate.

I think Angie was once a very lost girl and has definitely gone through several changes emotionally, mentally, and physically. However, she has definitely lived her life. Has had many experiences and is only 31. What she has done in her short life would take the average person a lifetime to do. I think that's what I admire about her the most is her audaciousness and her ability to be humble despite all the praise and attention she receives. You don't hear about her being ridiculously demanding like other celebrities. She's very sweet in her interviews. She's honest about herself, what she's been through, and what she's doing. She takes life by the balls and lives it to its fullest.

April 27, 2007 3:36 PM

Givemeabreak -- seriously, you need to check yourself, because what is written here is opinion and snark. You need to be able to handle other people's opinions without losing it, in order to be out here.

Having an opinion is one thing, having fun is one thing, but insinuating that anyone out here would harm another person is an indication that you are taking this too seriously and need to perhaps be banned from the site. You've taken what is otherwise fun banter and brought it to a different level. That is not cool.

April 27, 2007 3:37 PM

You Angelina haters are really crazy. She saved her adopted children's lives. They would most certainly be dead by now. I am just agreeing to disagree with you. You are too far gone to see any truth, just your own web of hate for a woman who is doing something good. Let's see you do something. I only bring up JA because YOU do. Ask T-bone, I think she IS JA.

Very sweet in her interviews? She has me locked in a closet and refers to me as a blob????

April 27, 2007 3:40 PM

T-bone, YOU need to be banned, God forbid anyone give THEIR opinion. Who do you think you are? I will continue to give my opinion. You talk of someone "losing it" Do you not act insane everytime someone offers support of Angelina and Brad? You need to check yourself sweetie. What is fun about constantly slandering someone's name? Igf this is fun for you, again, get help...

April 27, 2007 3:45 PM

I am going to give my opinion. I think that there does seem to be a game of bashing Angelina for fun here. I came here yesterday and said something nice about her and was just about cursed out. If people don't like her or do like her, post what you think, and go on. I don't know why the people who don't care for her feel they have to call her B*tches and whores etc. How can you call her that from a distance? All have sinned in someway and the bible lists it all together. Sin isn't categorized. Who is anybody to judge anyone? I think she has a big heart and I hope she continues to do her humanitarian and UN work.

April 27, 2007 3:48 PM

People need to get over the blob thing. Like noone has ever called their kids name. It wasn't mean or malicious. She didn't even say it the interviewer did she just agreed. Hey I know people have called their kids little sh*t or snotty. I think it's funny because people jump on her if she seems to act "like she's better" then they attack her for being human.

April 27, 2007 3:48 PM

givemeabreak - I am completely open to everyone's opinion, and I think all of the rational people out here get that (including some of your backers, if you read). One shouldn't be banned for one's opinion.

However, if there is any indication that someone out here is taking things too far, they should be banned. Your insinuation that ANYONE out here might harm another person is overboard. As I said before, it's an indication that you have gone too far.

If ASL does not take you off this website, I will simply make sure that I am not on any post that you are on. You're the type that might lose it and I honestly (and am being completely serious) do not want to be a part of it.

April 27, 2007 3:53 PM

T-bone, again get help.

April 27, 2007 3:58 PM

I agree that people act outrageous when someone compliments Ang. Why? It's crazy. We can give our opinion without things getting ugly or nasty. T-bone, you are the epitome of self righteousness and the pot calling the kettle black. You called Me a name yesterday for taking up for Angelina Jolie. I happen to like and respect her. You don't have to agree, but calling me out of my name yesterday wasn't called for. Now you want to rally for people to be banned due to them disagreeing with you. LOL. You are something else.

April 27, 2007 4:07 PM

Sassyne - I honestly don't care if people call names -- doesn't bother me a bit really. What I call people out on is when THEY tell others not to call them names, yet they do it themselves. I might point that out.

And you are completely wrong if you think I want people banned for disagreeing with me. People can do that all day every day -- doesn't bother me. But when I read that someone is actually insinuating that someone out here might hurt another person, that's another level. I'm sure you can understand the difference. When someone insinuates violence against another person, because we're disagreeing on a gossip blog, that is extremely scary and that person needs to think about why they're out here and if they can handle it. This has NOTHING to do with a difference of opinion. Half the people out here have differing opinions. But givemeabreak seriously needs to get off the site if she thinks that way.

Don't waste your breath T-Bone...

the crazies think they have a point, no matter how delusional.

You will never will when arguing common sense with a nutter.

T-Bone isn't asking for anyone to be banned for having a different opinion, she's saying she's concerned that givemeabreak accusing people of serious things. it makes it not fun to come out here.

Angietothemax, "get over it"?

it's easier said than done.

Mad, Zee and Pax always get to have their picture taken. Mommy always holds them.

ME? Locked in a truck in the basement with "Blob" tatooted on my forehead.

I wish my daddy had a back-bone and let me outside sometimes.....

I read the posts and I think you're all nuts!

April 27, 2007 4:37 PM

T-bone, I will continue to give my opinion no matter what you say. You are trying to flip the script. You have almost been like a bully on this site. You claim not to care when others disagree with you, but you go off the deep end. I guess you think you will scare people into not disagreeing with you...NOT. You have problems. MJK, you're right, you and the other "crazies" think you are right always. NOT the case.

Okay, i agree, get off T-Bone's back. He or She made valid points and that is setting the Whorelina fans off.

Shiloh, feel for ya babe!

April 27, 2007 4:40 PM

MM, you say I make it "not fun" to come here. T-bone makes it that way. As long as she/he gets to sit and post horrible lies about Angelina or give her/his opinion in an extremely negative way, everything is peachy. Let someone give her/him some of what she/he has put out and they are labeled as an instigator. T-bone, if you can't take it, don't dish it.

April 27, 2007 4:46 PM

Ergft, you and T-bone are something else. I give up talking to irrational, delusional people.

April 27, 2007 4:48 PM

God MJK, they really don't get it, do they??? It's almost wierd. Just because I have an opinion about AJ, they've all gone crazy! I haven't even used the words whore, slut, or anything else! It makes me laugh...

And they also don't get that givemeabreak has lost it and accused me (and others) of being capable of compromising AJ safety. That accusation is a little scary and WAY beyond a difference of opinion...SERIOUSLY!!!

April 27, 2007 4:49 PM

Angelina supporters, T-bone, Ergoft, and all the others who are slanderous to Angelina do not have anything worthwhile to argue about. You know Angelina is a true person. She is down to earth, a great humanatarian, and great mother and woman. Let them talk nonsense amongst themselves. It's all hot air.

April 27, 2007 4:53 PM

T-bone, LOL WOW. you are really SERIOUSLY too hilarious. I think givemeabreak was pointing out how much YOU have lost it. I said I was going to ignore you, but it's too funny.

sassyne...blah...blah...blah.....

Man! One crazy shuts up and another starts up.

Shoosh Sassy! Shoosh.

It's not fun when people can't say what they think, even if it's not nice. this whole website is about that. You're on a mean gossip blog. Do you know where you are? givemeabreak, have you ever said anything negative about anyone out here? if you have then your doing the same thing. just b/cause people say mean things or funny things doesn't mean they're going to hurt anyone.

Great MOTHER!?!?

That the most moronic thing said all day.

April 27, 2007 4:59 PM

MJK, I guess t-bone isn't the only crazy one. You're right. One "crazy" finally hushed, and now here YOU come.

April 27, 2007 5:04 PM

MM, you're right. People should be able to come here and give their opinion. Givemeabreak, I don't think, was really accusing anyone of being a psychopath, but T-bone and others are very outspoken about AJ. I like her and gave a nice compliment about her and it set her haters off. We should all be able to come here and give an opinion without calling people we don't know B's and Whores. THAT is scary. AJ seems to be the one topic that brings the people here in doves. She must be doing something right to draw such LOVE/HATE remarks.

assynine, didn't you say 20 posts ago that you were gonna shut up?

gimmeabreak and angietothemax, y'all r nuts.

those of you that see Ms. Jolie for the media-lovin, man-stealin, brother-layin freak she is, good for you!

April 27, 2007 5:08 PM

EXACTLY! IS this not a gossip blog????? So where does the bullying thing come in? Givemeabreak -- this is what I'm trying to say, bud. If you HONESTLY feel bullied by a gossip blog website and you HONESTLY feel that someone out here is capable of hurting Angelina Jolie, you are simply not capable of handling being on a website like this. You're taking it way too much to heart! Have an opinion for sure, but don't lose it.

April 27, 2007 5:13 PM

ALL of you guys are crazy.

April 27, 2007 5:16 PM

Why are you the only one who can give an opinion that's "sane". If you don't agree with gimmeabreak, or whoever, disagree. You have taken it to a whole nother level. Angelina is really doing it, she's got all of you in an uproar.

April 27, 2007 5:17 PM

Clarice, thanks for making me so important that you research what I have said. I know feel so special. LOL

April 27, 2007 5:20 PM

T-bone's a pain, please leave T-bone alone. Just agree to disagree.

April 27, 2007 5:21 PM

T-bone's a pain, please leave T-bone alone. Just agree to disagree. She/he goes OFF. Just leave her/him alone.

April 27, 2007 5:23 PM

I meant I NOW feel so special. Sorry, I got a little eager. LOL

My two cents, after reading all this nonsense.

I think the Angelina fans may be a tad bit defensive. If you look at the post before about Angelina's skinny legs, there were 9 comments.

It's when these posts come up, of Angelina mugging for attention and playing the saint for the cameras that some people get upset. I happen to agree that she is not what she portrays herself to be. I believe she still has mental issues, she is just much better at camouflaging them as an adult.

BUT like her or hate her, let's just chill.

April 27, 2007 5:26 PM

As I've said 5 billion times, givemeabreak disguised as some other name, anyone can give any opinion they'd like. It's all good. Send them in, write em down, do whatever. But if you're not having fun out here or you can't handle other people's opinions and banter without taking it all personally, get off the site. Take a break. Have a cocktail....

i think the arguments here are pretty good, actually. you're all nuts, but you argue your points well. i think it's funny that the angelina jolie protectors get so riled up by the aj haters. clap, clap, clap -- thanks for the entertainment.

I don't know about anyone else, but it seems the high of hypocrisy to skip around claiming to be some great child advocate when you have just adopted a child a month ago, drop him off in a foreign environment and leave.

Her children never smile, they never seem happy. You never see the biological child in her presence.
It all seems very fishy to me.

MM..."you're all nuts, but you argue your points well"

Literally just spewed Diet Coke on my keyboard. Funny!

April 27, 2007 5:47 PM

sassyne -- I'm sure Clarice, like everyone else here just read through the posts. I doubt highly that she considers YOUR words worth researching, but nice try. Now do as MJK requested --- SHOOSH!

One last post today before that cocktail...
Captain Obvious, your initial comment to me was-the subject is Angelina, yet I don't see any comments from you regarding Angelina. I do however see that you took your obviously precious time and keystrokes to judge my "mental capacity" or lack thereof. I can only assume that you come to blogs to pass out judgments and insults where you see fit. I'm sure that you will go far in life...best wishes! I feel honored that you saw fit to focus on me!
To the rest here today, you are a very interesting lot and I enjoyed reading your comments.

April 27, 2007 6:48 PM

LOL, WOW WOW WOW, you guys are persistent. I can't believe this is still going on. Angelina is very much so the bomb. She has you all losing it.

anywho...what a retard. shut up.

April 28, 2007 5:11 AM

Angelina is a PSYCHO. She'll turn all her children into psychos too. Please do not be like her.

Wow.. look at the fights going on here

For the people who puts down angelina for "neglecting" her kids.

"Her children never smile, they never seem happy. You never see the biological child in her presence."

I love my kids and we have a great relationship, but if you took photos of them when we go onto the streets, they're not smiling 24/7 either. That doesn't make me a bad mother. You can't judge how much a mother loves her kids from the paparazzi shots.

As for the whole "why doesn't she help children here?"

I agree that it's a valid question, and its true that lots of orphans back home are having it pretty hard too, but it IS her money, it's like saying to anyone who donates to a particular organisation "WHY DON'T YOU DONATE TO THESE OTHER ONES TOO? ARE THEY NOT AS IMPORTANT!"

As for the whole "sainthood" thing, Angelina never said anything about being a saint, a fun just happened to paint a picture depicting her that way, and suddenly its Angelina's fault?

*fan (not fun)

April 29, 2007 6:59 AM

Angelina fans are the AUDIENCE who "consume" the romantic nouvel of the young, hurt child who grew up neglected from her father,in a tiny humble tower in Beverly Hills with her mother and her brother to fend for themselves, who had to travel long distances to go to the prom, turning back into a "pumkin" after midnight.

And then as she grew up, the ugly duckling who used to cut herself and wear her husband's blood became the savour of the world. She married the beautiful noble prince after she saved him from his evil witch ugly wife who couldnt produce him children and had him chained into their hollywood's mansion basement.

The beautiful princess gave him the most beautiful child in the world and the child came to break the evil spells of the ex. Now the hot prince was happy, free, and with healthier skin.

Together, the beautiful princess and the hot prince fought the world. They saved the orphans of the world, they generously gave their hard earned fortune to the poor, and they educated the uneducated for what needs to be done to save the world. Oh the good princess and the hot prince were saving the world.

But their life was not without struggle. The evil ex was still casting spells on them trying to break them up, and the beautiful princess was sad and getting too thin. Her brother came along and told the whole world, in east and west what a beautiful soul the princess was, and alas the spell was gone.

But then the evil evil creatures that are called tabloids came along. The evil evil creatures that travelled around the world and spread the news of a fake princess and a puss*wiped prince. And the hot prince had to fight them to protect and defend the honour of his beloved princess. Not only them but he had to fight the villagers who didnt give a cr*p about them as well.

Oh the Royal family of the US!

Anyone else see the "narrative" to this story? I just wait for the dragons, the snowhite and the easter bunny to jump up from the pages.

PATHETIC!!

Everyone who comments in angst against Angelina is upset because they aren't UN ambassadors. Plus nations are arbitrary marks, who cares if she is promoting international orphans over domestic, does it matter? In the end she is saving more orphans than anyone here.


I support and applaud her efforts.
However, I would be more so, if I did
not read the hypocrisy of her purchasing
a boat for $300 million dollars.

Save the starving, but I have to live
good off the coast of Spain with my mansion
boat :(

Jolie gets paid MILLION OF DOLLARS for the work of a couple of months in a movie set, and for the work of a few days of photo shoots for a magazine. So if she donates 1 MILLION NOW AND THEN, it is like you and I give 10 dollars. So enough with the hype!!! When all these self promoting actors say that it is unfair to get paid these astronomical salaries while people in the US and all over the world work 15 or more hours a day, 7 days a week and cant make ends meet, WHEN all these actors fight for better salaries in the US, fund with their salaries the educational and health care system of the US or the world's then I will bow to the Holy Jolie.
