Angelina Jolie and Octavia Spencer co-hosted a fundraiser event

Angelina Jolie and Octavia Spencer co-hosted a fundraiser event. The event known as Stay Gold Project, and City Year is to broaden young people’s access to live theater.

Spencer said, "My job as an actor is to listen. And I realize it applies to everything in life. Most specifically, with the work that we do with City Year, in listening and watching our AmeriCorps members and how they work with the students. I think it’s important that we don’t assume we know what the students need; we ask and we listen."

Then Jolie tells, "I didn’t have this program; I would have loved it. Instead, she “had people making me feel like I wasn’t smart, because I was a bit wild or I was a bit difficult. So maybe I was one of those kids. I couldn’t have been the intelligent one. I couldn’t have been the one that could organize or direct. Maybe I’ll be the crazy artist over there, or the wild one."

Angelina Jolie uses Google Earth satellite images to reveal Gaza’s destruction

Angelina Jolie uses Google Earth satellite images to reveal Gaza’s destruction.

She wrote on Instagram on Saturday, posting images near  the Al-Qadisiyah School in the city of Rafah, Khan Younis in southern Gaza, and Omar Mukhtar Street in Gaza City, "You can now open Google Earth and see what was done to Gaza".

"Whole neighbourhoods have been reduced to rubble. Homes, schools, universities, hospitals, roads, water and sanitation systems, infrastructure that people depended on to survive have been damaged or destroyed".

"UN satellite analysis found that, as of 16 June 2026, 82% of Gaza’s structures had been damaged. Roughly two-thirds of those damaged structures were assessed as destroyed".

"As winter approaches, 1.98 million people or 94% of Gaza’s population need shelter assistance and essential items. Aid and shelter materials continue to face restrictions and delays".

"Google Earth shows the physical destruction with extraordinary clarity".

"What it cannot show is what it means to live among it, what happened to the families who were killed, and what life is like for those who survived".

"What happens next matters".

"People need shelter before winter. Humanitarian aid needs to reach civilians at the scale required.Hospitals need medical supplies".

"And the conditions that allow civilians to rebuild their homes, schools, hospitals and communities need to be created".

"The destruction is visible. The needs are known. What matters now is whether they are met. @un_ocha @inaraorg".

Jolie dedicated over 20 years — from 2001 to 2022 — to the UN, first as a Goodwill Ambassador and later as Special Envoy for UNHCR, the UN refugee agency.

Angelina Jolie had to be a graceful woman of the world in the movie The Tourist

Angelina Jolie had to be a graceful woman of the world in the movie The Tourist.

During an interview with Today (2010), she shared, "I was playing such a lady, and he was playing a math teacher, so that in itself was funny".

"She needs to speak more elegantly, she needs to sit with more poise. I'm not completely clumsy or gross, but there's something about this type of woman that doesn't come naturally to me.

"She's extremely...she takes her time with everything, I'm an American, I do 10 things before breakfast."

Jolie also admitted that she had never actually met Depp before they acted together.

She tells, "I always wanted to and I've always loved his movies." Yeah, welcome to the club.

"We had friends in common. I'd heard from Brad, 'You're gonna love him, he's a great guy.'" That'd be Brad Pitt, obviously.

During an interview with ET, Angelina Jolie revealed that Maddox speaks French better than she does.

Angelina Jolie starred in Couture, while her son Maddox served as assistant director.

Jolie tells, "His French was better than mine, so that was helpful. He did a lot of my lines readings with me".

"And also because you know, he is the one child of mine that remembers my mother. He actually has her name tattooed".

"It's a rare thing when you have a child working in a film with you and you as a woman are doing different things."

"They watch you do things. And so you're sitting in a hospital room getting this news, thinking about life and you step out and there's your son".

"And of course, you're thinking in the back of your mind, both of you, that there will be a real day like this".

"We spent a lot of time talking about her and that was lovely".

American blogger Perez Hilton claims that he received a threatening legal letter from Angelina Jolie's lawyers after he published a controversial article about Jolie's split from Brad Pit

American blogger Perez Hilton claims that he received a threatening legal letter from Angelina Jolie's lawyers (happened in 2016) after he published a controversial article about Jolie's split from Brad Pitt.

Perez explained, "Is Angelina Jolie really going to sue me? Most likely not. They're just trying to intimidate me, bully me, threaten me. [Angelina's] publicist revealed to me that the lawyers have been sending out a lot of aggressive letters demanding people to stop speaking about the Brangelina split".

"I think that her lawyers are making her look bad and at this point it would be dumb of her if she's not aware of this. And I think that she should let her lawyers go and get new lawyers because the public thinks negatively of her."

Angelina Jolie lets her kids eat whatever they want

Angelina Jolie lets her kids eat whatever they want. Her children, each adopted from a distinct country, have come of age experiencing dishes that honor their heritage: everything from Cambodian street fare to family-cooked meals, in whatever corner of the world they call home.

Angelina Jolie revealed her children have developed a taste for fried crickets, shining a light on both the cultural significance and nutritional value of eating insects. She said the fascination began following a trip to Cambodia, and was on full display at a Louis Vuitton shoot — her sons were munching on crickets “as if they were Doritos.”
