Total Views :Angelina Jolie appears wholly unconcerned by controversy. Ever-keen to talk about her breakdowns, her disorders, her fantasies and her world-famous penchant for S&M, many would say Angelina Jolie 's built a career on titillating public confession. But Angelina Jolie 's also an increasingly fine and award-winning performer, her Oscar for Girl, Interrupted being only the latest in a string of prestigious honours. Onscreen, as in bed, Angelina Jolie is a risk-taker, and perhaps deserves to be seen as the spiritual sister of such greats as Streep, Pfeiffer and Lange.
Angelina Jolie was born Angelina Jolie Voight in Los Angeles, on June 4th, 1975 - her name meaning Pretty Little Angel. Her father, Jon, was already an established superstar, having topped the bill in such classics as Midnight Cowboy and Deliverance. When Angelina Jolie was 2, he'd scoop the Best Actor Oscar for Coming Home. By then though, he'd already split from her mother, the part-Iroquois actress and model Marcheline Bertrand (now Angelina Jolie 's manager), who'd moved with Angelina Jolie and her brother James to the East Coast - to the Palisades, New York, to be more precise.
Living here, Angelina Jolie was a happy child. Angelina Jolie collected snakes and lizards - her favourite lizard being named Vladimir, and her favourite snake Harry Dean Stanton - and, oddly, like many females of her age, Angelina Jolie had a major crush on Mr Spock. Angelina Jolie would wear glittery clothing, including sparkly underwear, and flounce around, already performing, keen to make people laugh, to make them like her. Angelina Jolie was a member of the Kissy Girls, who hunted boys down and kiss them till they screamed - until the school was forced to call the parents and the gang broke up. Marcheline would take the kids to the movies often, and Jolie claims this is where she got the notion to be an actress - not from her uncle, Chip Taylor (an actor and composer), not from her godmother Jacqueline Bisset, and definitely NOT from her father, though at age 7 she did appear in Lookin' To Get Out, a movie about inveterate gamblers, co-written by and starring Jon Voight.
