Good for Angelina! I hope Brad decides to become
a Goodwill Ambassador also. Then they can save the
world together. Well, maybe not save the world...
but make the world a better place. They are both
strong people to deal with the nasty media and the
nasty half of the public who wrongly attack them
all the time.
She is the hottest humanitarian I have
ever seen. It is great that she is helping
refugees. Brad and Angelina are both doing
serious charity work. These are two people
who should be admired...instead they are
being hated by people who still falsely
accuse them of adultery even though they
have emphatically denied it. And please
do NOT say that they are doing it for PR.
Some nasty Jen fans have made that nasty
accusation.They are doing much more than just
donating money or attending the occasional
Hollywood charity benefit. They are directly
involved with the people and the issues.
And they are genuinely concerned about helping
these people. And the publicity they are getting
is not just benefiting them...the publicity is
bringing awareness to extreme poverty in Africa.
It is a good thing.
Angelina is doing a great job as a UN Goodwill Ambassador.
They would not have given her an award if she was not
accomplishing anything. And Brad Pitt is an ambassador
for the ONE Campaign. I hope he considers being a
UN Goodwill Ambassador too. And this article is about
Angelina and her charity work. I am sick of discussing
Brad and Jen's divorce. And I am also fed up with having
to argue with malicious people who bash them...their
bashing is based on rumors and lies. Anyhow, enough
with the relationship talk.... I hope Brad and Angelina
accomplish great things with their philanthropy.
Brad and Angelina might form their own little
United Nations. I hear they plan on adopting a child
from each continent except for Anarctica of course.
That would be six kids all together. Brad has said
in previous interviews that he wanted seven kids!
They already have Maddox from Asia and Zahara who
is from Africa. I don't even know if this is true,
but I hope it is. It would be such a diverse,
exotic, and beautiful family!
Bravo for Angelina. I really admire all the great things she has been doing and by all accounts she is truly an inspirational and admirable woman. I commend her for being able to juggle all the demands of her career, motherhood, social activism and high profile relationship. BTW I'm also looking forward to seeing her as the new spokesperson for St. John Knits. She is glamorous and down to earth, classy and edgy all at the same time. No wonder Brad couldn't help falling for her. And a word for would be Angelina haters: why would you bother to post on any article about her? I mean if you don't like her then why bother to even read anything about her. I have my list of celebs that totally rub me the wrong way which is exactly why I don't bother to go tracking down any article about them just to make a negative point. I think true Angelina fans have more class and inteligence and would never bother to post juvenile, expletive filled personal comments better suited to Jerry Springer's circus. Good day.
Well said, Arabella. I'm so happy to read positive
things about Brad and Angelina. Angelina is truly
an inspirational figure. She is an amazing example
of how humanitarian work and motherhood can change
a person.
I think that is great Angelina has devoted a
major part of her life to social causes.
She is not just a great actress but a
great human being. I wish her and Brad
nothing but everlasting success and happiness.

Congratulations Angelina! You are a wonderful
and compassionate human being. Beautiful inside
and out. I hope no haters come to post here.
Angelina is NOT a homewrecker. I have posted
frequently on articles concerning Brad and
Angelina. And I am tired of having to defend
them all the time.
