I can just see it now: As Angelina Jolie prepares for her next visit to a 3rd World Orphanage, she receives a call from her philanthropy Publicist. who says that her digital photographer has just quit. “But I need someone to take pictures of me caring for the kids!” Jolie screams. “Angelina, we can hire a new one. Better yet, I have a 6 megapixel digital camera. I can take pictures of you holding one of them. You should hold one of the Black ones since it will make you look more caring!”
“Well, we need to make sure that the kids look sick. If they aren’t sick, please poison their food!” Jolie goes on. Then, she calls in Brad to make sure that her other two adopted kids, Maddox and Zahara, are dressed for their photo ops. She dresses Maddox in Ninja type clothes, but chooses African safari clothes for Zahara. She then decides that Brad needs a moment of pleasure before they begin their journey. “I bet Jennifer could never do that!” she says in a whispery voice. Brad nods his head in agreement.
Does this sound like the “Saint Angelina” the world has come to embrace over the past few years? Perhaps not. But you know something is wrong in the “Saint Angelina” PR department when even the ultra-liberal New York Times disses you. In an article titled “After All That Goodness, a Sudden Fall From Grace,” the New York Times discusses her snobby interview with Ryan Seacrest at the Golden Globes, where Angelina pretty much let Ryan know that she was too good for him. The article goes on to quote other news sources that are currently blasting the self appointed Mother of Legal Adoption. But did Angelina really ever deserve that title?
Apparently, St. Angelina’s adoption of Maddox from Cambodia was anything but legal: government officials were bribed; Maddox’s mother was paid a substantial amount of cash; and the American businesswoman who handled the adoption is now in prison. Worst of all, many parents hopeful of adopting a child from Cambodia had their hearts broken when the government banned all adoptions because of Angelina Jolie’s illegal activities. So why did the media look beyond these facts when turning Angelina into a saint?
The answer is simple: the media doesn’t care about facts; they are only interested in building up celebrities just so they can tear them down. Saint Angelina, the Mother of Adoption, was an image that would sell. Jolie’s hookup with Brad Pitt made Saint Angelina even more marketable, even if some accused her of stealing him away from Jennifer Anniston. But the image of St. Angelina isn’t selling as well, so it’s time for the media to tear her down. Of course, Angelina’s calling her newborn child Shiloh a “blob,” blabbing to the press about how she wants to adopt legally (when she’s actually an adoption criminal) doesn’t help. The media looks for reasons to tear down a celebrity and Angelina has given them plenty of reasons to choose from.
There’s hope for Angelina Jolie. Once a celebrity gets torn down, the media likes to build them up again: it’s called “the comeback.” But the celebrity has to give a good reason for the media to do this. Going to 3rd world orphanages and cuddling with kids in front of cameras isn’t going to help. Angelina’s other fake philanthropy efforts, such as being a U.N. Ambassador, are going to make people hate her even worse. It’s time to bring back Slut Angelina from the early part of the decade. At least that image was fun and convincing.

And apparently neither do you. The adoption agency involved was the largest in the country at the time and served many, many clients, of which Jolie was one. There was no way that individual clients could have known about some of the dubious methods employed by the agency at the time. What's up with all the hate?

Sorry, Saint Angelina knew what she did was illegal. And she thinks she has the right to criticize others that adopt?
Hey- you need to do some research. She worked with the UNHCR for years before a single photo was taken. She doesn't even HAVE a publisist. The UNHCR takes whatever photos they feel will help their cause. She has won awards for being on the worlds most philanthropic list and gives 1/3 of her salary away to charity, she pays for all her own travel with no entourage and when she adopted in Cambodia she abided by the exact same rule as the thousands of other couples adopting from the USA did with no privileges. I would think that she laid back at the Golden Globes because it was Brad Pitt's event and he was up for an award and not her, so she was trying to throw focus on him as she was there as his support. But hey- jump to whatever conclusions you need to get your by-line printed using her name. You are so mighty yourself, I am glad you are using you talents to help the world. Congrats.
daryl d., is such and idiot.
To the poster who claims Angelina doesn't have a publicist - are you serious?!?! OF COURSE she does!
Hey Daryl You are such a dh that ryan was a total idiot and now we hear the reason for the way she acted is that her mother was near death,so dh she was supporting brad as it was his night as will as carrying the weight of her mother dying which did happen eleven days later,and as for all the other stuff you said about her gees go and do your research as your whole article is full of shit
Angelina Jolie is a skanky whore. She'll lose Brad because it's only one way street with her. It'll never last. And her kids are a joke. More important things than that cocaine sniffing whore mother wanna be and her pussy whipped gag boy (Pitt) They are losers.
