Angelina Jolie Wants to Focus on Family

Angelina Jolie Wants to Focus on Family

Angelina Jolie shares her thoughts on the Oscars race, her career, and life priorities at Good Morning America on Tuesday (February 3).

On her Oscars nomination: I feel very very lucky that I have won in the past. Listen, it’s lovely to be nominated. But I’m hoping Benjamin Button does really good on the night…. I’m rooting for Brad [Pitt].

On watching her own films: Um, sometimes. I like the process of doing them more than watching them. No, I just, I don’t really like to watch movies (laughing) I love to watch Brad‘s movies.

On what her kids think of her career: I think they only think I animate Kung Fu Panda… and that’s the extent of my career.

On what’s first in her life: I’d say kids first, kids, woman to Brad and then my work internationally and being a kind of… trying to educate myself and trying to learn about the world and… trying to do some good things while I’m alive.

On stepping away from acting: I’ve been lucky enough to have a great career and a lot of success. But I wake up every day just the happiest mommy… I don’t want to wake up one day and say I had my career that expanded so much longer and I did that many more films and miss out on all those other things in life.

Watch Angelina Jolie‘s full in-depth Oscars interview on Nightline’s weeklong Oscar series, airing Tuesday 11:35pm EST.

Brad deserves a good kick in the butt for his past choices in women. My god, at times I don’t know what to think of him. Was he that clueless or shallow like his ex?

Kids, Brad, Kids, Kids, Kids, Brad, Kids, Brad, Kids, Kids, Kids, Brad. It’s like a broken record.

All that needs to be said is:
“Kids first ”
“Woman to Brad”

To all of her haters, you can learn a lot from Angie,if you would take care of home first and stop walking around with scorn because of a woman you do not know maybe your home life might be a little bit better.

I totally agree with you Angie!

SHE IS LIKE KATIE HOLMES. PROGRAMMED TO SPEAK HIGHLY OF THEIR HOLLYWOOD MEN. IT’S STARTING TO GET CREEPY… BRAD AND TOM ARE THE BIGGEST UNDERCOVER WEIRDOS..

I don’t know why she caters to the Brangieloons. She used to be so cool and confident and now she seems to be fake now. people who are fans of her for long time see how different she is and it’s not in a good way. it’s like when Johnny depp signed on for all of the pirate movies . he lost his cool guy cred. it’s happened to Angelina jolie too. she lost her cool chick cred and it ain’t because she’s a mama. White bread ruined her.

What a load of crap. She is so full of it. She is a LIAR. She just she was going to take some time off but know she has just signed on for another movie. If she cared anything about those kids she would be a stay at home instead of prancing them around the world. There is no stability in their lives and when they get older we will see the destruct.

If I were asked that question, I would never answer. I know she loves the kids and so does Brad and they always say the kids are their priority, but that needs to be balanced with, not numbered in front of your relatiosnhip. Firstly, it’s not nice to be told categorically you come second behind the kids. Brad tendss to say the same thing too. I know the kids are important, but it is a joint responsibility which should normally be an additional to the relationship, not the reason for the relationship. One day the kids will leave and all you will have is each other. But I understand. In their case they became a family because of the kids.

Just because someone is sick of hearing the Brange talk about their kids, doesn’t mean they like the Maniston. They can all three go suck a ****.

I’m looking forward to the whole interview.

Thanks for the new thread Jared.
