Angelina Jolie Depressed Over Failure of Film

Hollywood Grind — Thu, 26 Jul 2007 19:09:43 +0000

Us Magazine is reporting that Angelina Jolie has been very down about A Mighty Heart flopping at the theaters.

Bad box office numbers can be a real bummer. According to a source close to Angelina Jolie, 32, the actress is â€œdevastatedâ€ by the audience rejection of her movie A Mighty Heart (it has earned just $9 million).

â€œShe poured her heart into the story and canâ€™t believe people donâ€™t understand how important it is,â€ the insider tells Us Weekly in this week’s issue.

Helping to lighten her mood: a vacation in France with Brad Pitt, 43, and their four kids.

The whole clan is staying at a $13,818-a-week rental manor in Marthon, which boasts a swimming pool and private theater.

(Family friend Mariane Pearl, whom Jolie played in the film, was seen joining them.)

Says an insider, â€œBrad and Angelina wanted to get away from everything, and France is a great place to do that.â€

Awwww, poor Angelina, the sex-goddess who can lure any man on the planet into her bed. Her movie did badly at the box office. She has to make herself feel better by flying to France on a private jet with her husband, Brad Pitt–you know, the best looking man in the world. When I get depressed, I down a pint of Ben & Jerry’s and chase it with a fifth of Jack.

Victoria Beckham Pulls an Angelina Jolie with the Press

Hollywood Grind — Mon, 09 Jul 2007 12:57:32 +0000

Posh Spice is apparently Pushy Spice.

Victoria Beckham, perhaps taking some lessons from Angelina Jolie’s techniques during the press tour for A Mighty Heart, is throwing her (light)weight around.

Page Six reports that Beckham’s reps "forced reporters to sign contracts before interviewing her."

What was Beckham’s goal? To ensure that reporters asked her questions about her truncated snoozefest reality show "Victoria Beckham: Coming to America," and only that.

Who does she think she is? (Oh yeah…right…she thinks she’s Angelina.)

Here’s the thing: If you can’t ask her about her boobs, hottie-pants David Beckham, their friendship with Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes, the Scientology rumors, and the Spice Girls reunion, there’s not much to an interview with Posh. Just as there isn’t much to her, literally.

Bummer that she and her reps are the only ones who don’t get it.

The ratings of her "special" could be a wake-up call, but probably not.

Angelina Jolie Could Be the Reason for A Mighty Heart’s Lack of Success

Hollywood Grind — Mon, 25 Jun 2007 20:25:36 +0000

According to a poll on Usmagazine.com, A Mighty Heart flopped at the box office this weekend due to the majority of people having an a$$-full of Angelina Jolie.

The Angelina Jolie film A Mighty Heart pulled in only $4 million this weekend, coming in tenth place behind such films as Evan Almighty, Fantastic Four: Rise of the Silver Surfer, Ocean’s Thirteen, Surf’s Up and Nancy Drew.

So far, 38% of people have chosen "Tired of Angelina" as the reason for not going, as opposed to "Too intense," "Plan to see it eventually," and "Not interested."

Perhaps Angelina is suffering from over-exposure. Or perhaps most people still remember her days of carrying Billy Bob’s blood around her neck, over-sharing details of her sex life, and the oogie lip-lock with her brother, James, after she won her Oscar for Girl, Interrupted. Shivers.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt Don’t say I Love You

Hollywood Grind — Mon, 25 Jun 2007 16:00:48 +0000

Angelina Jolie told Marie Claire magazine that she doesn’t think she’s ever seriously said "I love you" to Brad Pitt.

She said, "I don’t think we’ve ever said (I love you). I mean, I’m sure we have, but we would have to punch each other in the arm first."

Angelina Jolie took the kids to school this morning. Brad is usually the one doing this. Maybe this is Angelina’s way of saying she’s sorry after the movie Brad’s company bankrolled, and Angelina was in (A Mighty Heart), bombed at the box office over the weekend.

Angelina is such a special person. She never says I love you, or I’m sorry. She just kicks you in the nuts and says, "There ya go, satisfied now?"

Angelina Jolie Ready to Marry Brad Pitt

Hollywood Grind — Wed, 20 Jun 2007 22:14:19 +0000

Life & Style is reporting that Angelina Jolie has decided she’s (finally) ready to marry her babydaddy, Brad Pitt.

It’s their cover story and they’re teasing it – and teasing it hard.

…an insider close to Angelina Jolie says the actress "wants to get married more than anything!" In fact, after receiving such a glowing reviews for her role in A Mighty Heart, which partner Brad Pitt produced, Angie’s falling in love with him all over again, the insider adds. Unfortunately for Angie, Brad isn’t so convinced. "He’s suspicious of the institution" of marriage, says a Brad insider. Will Angie be able to change his mind?

It’s like a cheesy cliffhanger. We must run out and buy it.

Don’t you just love Wednesdays? We certainly do.

Angelina Jolie Turns Out to Be VERY Involved in Press Bans

Hollywood Grind — Wed, 20 Jun 2007 13:32:30 +0000

Page Six is reporting that Angelina Jolie’s denial of involvement in and apology for the restrictions placed on the press during the premiere of A Mighty Heart were disingenuous. Shocker!

But tipsters tell Page Six that Jolie went on to ban some entertainment weeklies, including Us Weekly and Life & Style, from speaking to her at the film’s junket on Friday at the Waldorf-Astoria – only deigning to allow access to OK! and her reliable ally, People magazine, which is inclined to swallow her p.r. hook, line and sinker.

Over the past few years, People has paid Jolie millions for the rights to publish photos of her and Brad Pitt’s various kids, which she gave to charities, upping her positive publicity.

Did anyone really believe Jolie when, during her interview with Jon Stewart, she disavowed knowledge of what her "people" were doing?

The guys who spoofed her appearance certainly didn’t. You can see Angelina’s entire Daily Show denial and the mocking of it

Four children isn’t enough for Angelina Jolie

Hollywood Grind — Fri, 15 Jun 2007 13:55:35 +0000

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt already have four children, but four isn’t good enough because Angelina want to raise the number of kids to fourteen! On Thursdayâ€™s Daily Show with Jon Stewart, Stewart questioned Jolie on exactly the total of children she wants.

The actress replied, "It fluctuates between seven and 13 or 14." Stewart quickly responded, "Wow, I’ll tell you this: I admire that, because two is kicking my azz."

Jolie agreed with the host of Daily Show that four kids kind of kicking her in the butt yet she is up for the challenge.

The 32-year-old actress and Pitt are promoting the new movie, A Mighty Heart which already hit the theatres Wednesday.

Angelina Jolie Addresses Chatter About Her Alarming Weight Loss

Hollywood Grind — Fri, 15 Jun 2007 13:53:07 +0000

At the A Mighty Heart premiere, Angelina Jolie responded to comments about her appearance, thisislondon reports.

"I’ve always been lean and this year I lost my mom and I’ve gone through a lot.

"I have four kids and I finished breastfeeding â€“ it’s been hard to get my nutrition back on track."

The actress insisted observers were wrong to include her in the size zero trend.

"Someone saying to me that I’m thin is not a compliment," Jolie said.

"Instead of people saying I look like a person dealing with something emotionally, they assume it’s because I want to fit into skinny jeans."

This is an interesting revelation, considering brother James Haven’s recent claims that she stopped eating out of empathy for the poor and the starving.

Never mind all that, though. We may have stumbled upon an explanation for the bulging forehead vein and the scary blood-trunks on her arms, as thisislondon also kindly lined up some remarkable "health and fitness experts" to diagnose Jolie’s mystery condition from photos alone!

"Such increased vascularity is often the result of over-exercising, particularly weight-bearing or resistance work," said Mark Munroe, a trainer based in Kensington.

"If Angelina is pushing herself too hard â€“ and not consuming enough calories â€“ then the body has to work harder to pump nutrients around which shows up in the form of bulging veins."

Sounds good enough to us.Â Having someone finally weigh in, even if their credentials are dubious, is a relief. We haven’t been able to keep our eyes off the arm veins for weeks.

We want to…but…we can’t…look…away.
