Angelina Jolie: I Fell in Love With Brad When He Was Still With Jen
Angelina Jolie reveals she and Brad Pitt fell in love on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith – which Pitt filmed while still married to Jennifer Aniston.
“Not a lot of people get to see a movie where their parents fell in love,” Jolie, 33, says – referring to wanting her kids to see the flick – in the New York Times.
One sight she’s not ready for her six children to see? Racy internet pictures of herself!
Jolie says she worries, “[Maddox will] look up my name and see some kind of sexy pictures, or read a story about himself that isn’t true.
“There’s a lot we’re going to have to explain to them about how public their family is,” Jolie adds.
For now, the kids look at mom and dad as nerds, Jolie says.
“What’s going to be funny is when they think Mom and Dad are a little bit cool, because right now, we’re not cool Mom and Dad,” she says. “Even video games, you know, it’s: ‘Mom, you can’t play this. You don’t know how.’
“Oh, they all think I can’t do anything, that I’m just there to snuggle with. But the other day, Madd said, ‘Can you do a cartwheel?’ and I said, ‘Yeah I can.’ And he was like, ‘Wow, Mom,’” she says.
“And I thought ‘Oh, yeah. I can do some things. You wait. You’ll find out. I’m capable,” Jolie says.
The actress says she picks her movie roles based on her kids’ schedules.
She asks herself, “Who’s in school at that time? How can I be sure I don’t do too many long hours? Can the three youngest be on the set every day?
“As long as I can still be with my family, it’s fun. But I only want to do that, and I’m not looking for anything else,” she says.
For inspiration, Jolie looks to her own mother, who died in January 2007.
“My mom, she was a very, very soft woman. It was hard for her to yell, or even curse,” Jolie says. “But when it came to fighting for her kids, she found a strength she didn’t always know she had.
“And there’s a part of [Changeling character] Christine that I connected to her,” Jolie adds. “I kept pictures of my mom in little purses” that she totes in the movie.

People say she is so nice and kind and such a wonderfull person! I say she is a sneaky B_t_h. that comment about her kids seeing a movie where her and Brad started having their affair(oops I mean fell in love) proves that this women is a liar. She said in other interviews that she would never covet someone elses Husband after what happened to her mother. I think she tells the world all her private information and this little tidbit she has had to keep secret so everyone still thinks of her as a saint.

I wish she could keep quiet sometimes. Sometimes, she really talks too much , bragging about her unprivileged children , especially when she has a new movie.

I think that it means that is where they started to have feelings for each other. I am sure that they did not proceed until his marriage was over. If Brad and Jen’s marriage was solid then nothing would have happened. Obviously it was not solid enough.

To KBS: How are you so “sure” that they did not proceed until the marriage was over? Are you a personal friend? a relative? I didn’t think so…so shut the he11 up!

This is AJ’s way of admitting her adultery. She probably figures so many people like her that they can look past this. Yeah, right. I was cheated on by my husband and there ain’t no way I will have respect for this broad, besides, she is such an over-actor.

Uhm…she was pregnant before their divorce was even final. I cannot stand her or him. Be nice if she’d shut up!

KBS Says:
You can’t be sure of shit.
She just admitted they fell in love on the set. How could she want her children to see that crappy movie anyway. It sucked. As do most Jolie movies, she is an overactor.
Will she tell the kids, that Brad was married to someone else at the time?
And most marraiges have trouble, you don’t go falling in love with another woman to solve the problem. You work it out. It wasn’t as if Jen and Brad were at each others throats constantly and he needed comforting. He was off making a movie with the black widow bitch.
Can’t stand her, I don’t care what else she does in life, she ruined someone else’s to make herself happy.

You guys seriously have too much invested in these people. Fact of the matter is none of you know them, or know what really happened and in the end, quite frankly, WHO THE HELL CARES!
Oh and no offense, for someone who gave birth to twins like 3 or 4 months ago, I will say she looks rather well.

I’m so glad SHE clarified it herself that they ‘fell in love’(AKA FUUUUUUED)while filming the movie b/c everyone would always say nothing happend and she didn’t ruin Brad and Jen’s marriage… she’s a SLUT!!! The truth always comes out in the end. Poor kid’s, I feel bad for them.
