Angelina Jolie will rent a Manhattan property for her fashion brand, Atelier Jolie for 8 years. Previously Andy Warhol and Jean-Michel Basquiat lived and worked there.
The property is situated at 57 Great Jones Street and is 6,600 square feet that consists of three floors.
Directors at the real estate agency Meridian Capital Group tells, “[Jolie] wanted to preserve the older art on [the building] and keep that Basquiat feel to the space".
“She loved the facade of the building and it being tagged up with the street art as a memorial for Basquiat".
Angelina Jolie wrote an article for the American Journal of Nursing published on July 5 about how people of color can sometimes misdiagnosed.
She wrote, "As the mother of children of multiple races, I have seen my children of color be misdiagnosed, at times in ways that endangered their health".
She explained on how her daughter Zahara was misdiagnosed, "Reflecting personally, when my daughter Zahara, who is from Ethiopia, was hospitalized for a medical procedure, the nurse told me to call her ‘if she turns pink near her incisions. I stood looking blankly at her, not sure she understood what was wrong with what she had said."
"When she left the room, I had a talk with my daughter, both of us knowing that we would have to look for signs of infection based on our own knowledge, not what the nurse had said, despite her undoubted good intentions."
"Even as my family has access to high-quality medical care, simple diagnoses are missed because of race and continued prioritization of white skin in medicine. At a societal level, racial disparities in health care affect outcomes for millions of people. From technology to improving diversity and representation in medical research and training, it is past time to embrace new solutions".
Jolie has been giving lots of support for domestic violence victims and recently campaigned to renew the Violence Against Women Act.
During an appearance in The Woman King, Jennifer Lawrence said, “I remember when I was doing Hunger Games nobody had ever put a woman in the lead of an action movie because it wouldn’t work".
“We were told girls and boys can both identify with a male lead, but boys cannot identify with a female lead".
Before Jennifer, there were many female lead in action movie like Sigourney Weaver in Alien (1979), Demi Moore’s G.I. Jane (1997), Charlie’s Angels (2000) and Angelina Jolie in Tomb Raiders (2001, 2003) and others.
One fan wrote on Twitter, “Lawrence is apparently so self-obsessed that she forgets a ton of other women were cast as female leads in action films: Linda Hamilton, HELLO. Sigourney Weaver? Angelina Jolie? Halle Berry? Uma Thurman and the ladies of Kill Bill? “DEATH PROOF” CAST? Lawrence is annoying.”
Angelina Jolie celebrated her Golden Globe winning (1999) for Gia by jumping into Beverly Hilton pool with her gown.
She pulled interviewer Jeremy Louwerse into the pool. Jeremy describe that moment, "She was trying to get me in the pool. She was trying to get everyone in the pool. But no one would get in the pool. Finally, she grabbed onto my arm, and I fell in."
"I was just trying to get the best interview I could and praying that the mike still worked." It didn't. The waterlogged equipment was ruined. The sound you hear is from a boom mike."
"I did about a three-minute interview. Afterward, she suggested we go swimming, so we did and had a gulp of champagne — then [we] both got out of water and someone threw us some towels."
Angelina Jolie and Jenny Shimizu acted together in Foxfire (1996). Jolie has the hots for Jenny. They would visit strip clubs together and they kissed on second week of filming.
That time Jolie was dating with Jonny Lee Miller. Jolie told the magazine,
"He was around when I was figuring things out about myself, when I was realizing that I was attracted to women also. When I realized that somebody like Jenny could be a deep love for me, he realized it, and he took it very seriously. If anything, he didn't treat it just like some sexy thing."
“I probably would have married Jenny Shimizu if I hadn’t married my husband (Jonny Lee Miller). I fell in love with her the first second I saw her.”
Angelina Jolie's four kids (Shiloh, Pax, Knox, and Zahara) went to grab coffee in Maru Coffee in the Los Angeles neighborhood.

Vivienne Jole-Pitt and Angelina Jolie were not there.
Shia LaBeouf once shared his fantasy of kissing Angelina Jolie.
He told Access, “I would lose my mind. In the back of your head, you [would be] thinking, ‘She’s gonna kiss me right now and then go home with Brad Pitt! This is a lose-lose right now".
