Angelina Jolie has been pale for a while now. I remember, back in the day, when she used to have fake tans or real tans – it was sort of the Lara Croft era of her career. To her credit, she was rarely orange – her skin looked natural with a little bit of color. But somewhere along the line, she began to stay out of the sun and (I’m assuming) she began to wear sunscreen every day. The pale skin works on her, I think, and she really never looks washed out to me. But it’s been a while since she’s taken a job where she has to be outside a lot. And who knew that directing Unbroken would be that kind of job? Angelina is prepping Unbroken in Australia, known for its multitude of sun-kissed blondes. So what is a pale vamp like Angelina to do? Well, her solution is kind of weird:
“Angelina Jolie loves the feeling of a tanning bed and getting UV rays, but she’s terrified of skin cancer. So she lathers on SPF 30 sunscreen before getting in her bed,” a source tells Star. “Brad thinks it’s hilarious – he says there’s no point in using the bed if she’s going to put sunscreen on to slow down the tan. His newest nickname for her Tangelina.”
But stubborn Angie is devoted to her odd routine, which she thinks helps prepare her skin for the sun in Australia, where she’s directing Unbroken. “She wants her skin to be adjusted in order to prevent burning,” explains the source. “She’s convinced the tanning bed and SPF combo gives her a glow without the tan.”
[From Star Magazine, print edition]
You don’t get the Vitamin D when you wear sunscreen, correct? Well, you get some but it’s negligible. Anyway, I don’t believe this. Not because I think Angelina would never obsess over skin care and preparing her skin for the Australian sun – although I do have my doubts about that – it’s that I can’t see how she would have the time to care to this extent. She’s looking after all six kids while Brad is filming Fury. Plus, she’s still prepping Unbroken and scouting locations and hiring people. When does she have the time to slather on sunscreen and lay in a tanning bed? Plus, she’s just as pale as usual. Vampire!
And “Tangelina”? RLY? That sounds like the nickname we should use for Pippa Middleton.

Ha ha..what a dumb story.
She does have amazing skin though.
She really does have great skin, I’m envious.
And yeah, this story is rather lame. I highly doubt she’s obsessing over a tan, lol.
Not to mention that both Brad and Angie ‘hate’ the Brangelina moniker, so would Brad really use a word similar to it to describe Angie? Busted “Star” magazine! 🙂
Completely, utterly dumb. It’s like they (Star) have a dartboard with random words or objects and this time the writer hit “tanning bed.” Please.
Haha, that’s probably true! Their storys are most of the time so stupid. I really want to know how they get them!
She and Jessica Alba were listed as #1 and #2 for the having the best skin on HDTV.
Many reporters that have interview her always comment about her Dewey complexion and lips.
I think it’s a great idea, the beds are so relaxing, but I gave it up a long time ago. I would totally do this. And as for time the entire routine described above would take twenty minutes. If I had as many kids I would take any opportunity to shut out the world for a relaxing few. Hell, I have two and it sounds like heaven.
SPF 30 is not enough. You need at least a 45 to 50 SPF on the face if you want real protection.
I am JEALOUS of her skin–I don’t think I’ve ever seen her looking completely awful ever–like those pictures of Mila Kunis when she and Ashton were walking their dogs early. That’s how I would look that early in the morning.
And this story is just dumb. I don’t think I’ve ever even seen her in a swimsuit since she had her kids–the last one I saw was I think before she and Brad got together–it was her and Maddox at the beach and she wore a black bikini…..other than that she’s like Morticia Addams at the beach.
She has natural beauty. Mila Kunis doesn’t. It’s very rare you see a woman looking so beautiful-with little to no makeup on-in almost all pictures and there are thousands of them.
The only other time I can recall seeing a picture of her in a bathing suit was in France while she was pregnant. She was on a balcony wearing a black bikini.
Angelina’s beachwear reminds me of Nanny McPhee. I think she has major insecurities about her body and her pregnancies magified them.
@zut alors
I don’t think she’s insecure, per se, but I don’t think that she wants to feed into anything like that–her “bikini body”. I mean, how many other celebrities do you see on the cover of People, in a bikini going “how I got my body back(in six weeks)”–whenever she has covers, for her kids, it’s always been about the kids–even when she was young and adopted Maddox.
I just looked at it, and it was just a picture of her holding Maddox–it looked like a pap pic, and they were on the street. It wasn’t some super glamorous photoshoot (which I know she did with the twins)–I like that about her.
But yeah, I think I would have a complex just by being in hollywood. I mean she’s covered up completely, and people still talk about her body. Just think what would happen if she wore a bikini right now?
She sure does. I’ll bet she wears SPF every day (as do I).
Good god this comes from star magazine.. how can one believe one word from them?!
That article is so ridiculous that also hilarious. Just reading the article and coming across ‘Tangelina’ makes me think I was reading something from The Onion.
+1
That is not skin that lays in a tanning bed or on a beach towel.
Dont each of the kids have 2 nannies. Her travel party is notoriously large because she has help. I am not saying she is idle or that she is a bad mum but to suggest that her kids would keep her too busy for that hour of alone time makes no sense.
Are you for real? Stop reading/believeing tabs. I’ve seen three nannies. By your count there should be 12. The kids seem to have 1 nanny per two children.
No one knows for sure how many nannies they have. Like many Celeb parents, I think they try to be discreet about it because they want to look like hands on parents.
Gawker had a series of pics as part of a spot-the-nanny game. It was fun. Lets just say it was clear that the help is required to duck when the cameras show up.
The 2 nannies per child came from an editor from architectural digest who was holidaying on the same island as this family
I have zero issue with parents getting help. Alot of help even. Its the whole hiding that pisses me off.
Ever think those “nannies” were all Brad’s family members???
On that trip were his parents, his siblings, their spouses and all their kids.
They were obviously confused for family.
They have about 4 nannies I have seen with them on a regular basis.
Sardinia yeah, like Gawker is reliable, shaking my head slowly. Some people will believe anything. A lot of the time those who are said to be nannies are simply relatives or close friends.
No, they don’t have two nannies a kid. They have male security staff that seems to often function as “mannies” and 2-3 females* that are language teachers/minders/nannies that don’t seem to be around as often. From what both Brad & Angie have said over the years, no staff spends the night (I think that they made an exception for a bit when the twins were born), so I’m sure they make arrangements with some staffer when they go out in the evening- given that we have seen so many of the same people with them over the years, they must be pretty decent to work for despite having so many kids!
—-
*a 4Oish Asian lady, maybe Cambodian? (we haven’t seen the younger Asian lady for a few years- I think she was a Vietnamese speaker to help Pax with the transition) and a 30 something African lady/French teacher (the 20 something African lady seemed to be a relative of hers and hasn’t been seen for a couple of years). There used to be an older white lady when Zahara was a toddler, but she hasn’t been seen in a long time- she may have retired or died.
Agreed- they don’t have 12 nannies or even six nannies; 2-4 seems much more likely based on what we’ve seen & heard. FYI- several member of Angie’s entourage lately have been part of her Unbroken film crew- cinematographer, production designer, other producers, etc.
Oh for heaven’s sake….she has help. That’s the point. And nannies don’t work 9 to 5 (know from experience thankyouverymuch) — more like 6 til when the kids go to bed. Yeah…don’t kid yourself, she’s not curling up in a bubblebath mumbling “Calgon…take me away…” while the hoards beat down the bathroom door. That may be YOUR life, but it’s not hers.
She sees those kids when she wants and under the circumstances she wants…she’s not “just like us”.
@JustJen
She has help, she’s a millionaire, with six kids, who wouldn’t have nannies,but where did 12 nannies come from? The most I’ve seen is four, the rest are bodyguards, not nannies. There are two African-Americans, One Cambodian, and one of Asian descent women, that are seen all the time. 12 nannies, is a tabloid rumor, only people that don’t like her, believe they really have 12 nannies.
The number 12 came from a fellow vacationer who also happens to be editor of Architectural Digest. He may have employed hyperbole but his point was they have alot of help.
Thank you Sardinia. This story was widely reported, did her stans really not see it?
And Tarantino also told Howard Stern that he saw alot of people in the house who he assumed were the help before he quickly corrected himself and called them family friends. He did later say that the “family friends” put the kids to bed while he and Brad did pot.
I expect Stans to deny every semi-negative story (is having nannies even negative?) but the level of denial always shocks me.
I stand by my point. If she wants to find time to slather SPF 30, she can
Yes…the level of denial & the lashing out at posters with differing opinions is indeed, shocking.
Again, the tabloid lies.. They were their teenage cousins that were mistaken for Nannies. Taratino said no such thing. He said the kids were asleep when they did pot. No mention who put them to bed.
But again, thats what I love about the JP ‘s they never feel a need to comment on these things.
‘Denial’ is not just a river in Egypt
Yeah we saw story we also know Brad’s family was with them on holiday. They have about 4 -6 nannies including to guys who probably are combination manny /security..
I can’t wait to see how many nannies Jennifer’s baby will have.
BTW Brad , Angie and the twins are in Hong Kong just sat the pics 🙂
Good lord. The woman has a job. Of course she has childcare. Why is this even a thing? Because some dude said one time that he saw them on vacation with 2 nannies per child? Well if some dude said it, it must be true.
I could care less how many nannies they do or, don’t have…. Just PLEASE do something with Viviennes hair! Like cut it, curl it or pull it back. Bless her heart! I have never seen such scraggly looking hair on a child. Ever!
People like Min is the reason tabloids will never go out of business. It’s amazing that people believe the most ridiculous stories. It’s one thing to read tabloids/blogs for laughs but to believe anything out of pure hate is pathetic. I also love how haters make stuff up. The reporter didn’t see Brad and Angelina with 12 nannies. He said somebody told him that somebody else saw them with 12 nannies. Most likely it was family members. It’s funny that anytime somebody is seen with the family they get called nannies. With the most basic investigation it’s learned the people are family members or their managers, etc.
Well, good luck to her!
And we can’t use Tangelina for Pippa. Pippa is already Orangina, no?
NOBODY should tan- skin cancer is VERY real. Angie has such beautiful skin, it is clear that she is smart enough not to bake in the sun without SPF. Angie has also always been super sporty & active, so, if she is outdoors, she isn’t lying around like some beached whale. Finally, she has long had a valid fear of cancer bc of her family history- I don’t recall her mother ever being super tan either.
I have severe psoriasis in the winter and my doctor has repeatedly told me to tan, because it is the only thing that helps it. Also in places up north, where there is limited sun in the winter, it is recommended to stop S.A.D and get vitamin d because of the lack of sun. The sun isn’t bad or evil in small doses, and I laugh at everyone who basically categorizes the sun as hitler.
@Meaghan My father has very severe psoriasis on his legs, arms, and hands. He’s been tanning for the good part of 20 years. It has done wonders for him. We used to live in Canada where the sun just wasn’t out long enough or hot enough to actually help him. Now that we have all relocated to Phoenix he can truly break free from his psoriasis and feel better.
“I laugh at everyone who basically categorizes the sun as hitler.”
+1. People go way overboard with the sun-vilification.
“Angie has also always been super sporty & active” I beg to differ, she is a bone rack now
Geez- skinny people do sports, in fact, more SKINNY than FAT people do sports. Besides all the amazing stunts that she has done in her films over the past 2 decades, she rides/drive bikes, camps, AND chases after six kids.
Exactly- you don’t have gorgeous skin like Angelina’s if you spend all day lying about in the sun, no matter how much SPF you wear. I had a college friend who would tan on the roof of the dorm with BABY OIL- needless to say, her skin looks atrocious now.
@Megan, thanks for setting the record straight. People have become brain washed about sun exposure. The REALITY is that some sun exposure is good for you, for all of the reasons you mentioned. I too suffer from psoriasis and I have to use a UV lamp in limited doses. It provides tremendous curing results for my condition. I also suffer from Vitamin D deficiency and in the past have been prescribed a rationed dose of exposure in tanning beds. There are hundreds of benefits to sun exposure, in moderation.
In some places around the world, you do need to be vigilant about the sun. I live on the south-east coast of Australia and even though we are just a few weeks into spring, when outdoors you can feel the sun burning almost straight away. Your skin literally sizzles.
Apart from wearing SPF every day, I try to limit time outside to either early or late in the day.
stupid, but i believe it.
This is such a stupid story! Where do they come up with this stuff!
Why not just go outside for 15 minutes a day with no sunscreen to get a little Vitamin D and then your skin will get a base.
I was low on vit D and my doctor told me to take off my sunglasses for about 15 minutes while I was in the sun because he said your body gets the
vit D through the retinas in your eyes… I’ve always wanted to research this because I don’t completely believe him. –But if you do get vit D through your skin, I think you’d still get the benefits even while wearing sunscreen because the sunscreen doesn’t block 100% of the rays…
A quick google search backs up your doctor. The article I read specifically dealt with African natives (whose dark skin makes it difficult to absorb ultraviolet). Apparently they had a dramatic increase in cancer rates, and associate it with the natives now wearing sunglasses, and causing insufficient vit D levels.
mayamae: Thanks for doing my *homework* for me! And actually, I started doing the 15 minutes in the sun w/out my sunglasses and last time I had my D level tested, it was finally in the high range – so it works!
I have to wear sunglasses, or else I start sneezing and my eyes water. My mom said it was because I was allergic to the sun (she noticed that happened a lot when I was a baby and wasn’t wearing a hat or sunglasses). Maybe that explains why I have such pale skin and don’t tan well. And here I always thought it was because I have my dad’s Irish complexion! 🙂
Her skin is flawless. She doesn’t tan.
LOL. I guess this is something to print. Thing is you won’t here her issue a denial.
Yes her skin is great I love it! These are people who should be used for skin care adverts. These are pictures of her and the twins arriving in hong kong yesterday. brangelinaforum.yuku.com/topic/2/Main-Page?page=3360#.Ujue19K1GDEthanks I love her top I So want to covet it.
I saw some tweets that said that Brad was there too they were seen at dinner.. but not sure how true.. the twins are cute though
Yes its true! Brad is in Hong kong here is a picture http://hk.apple.nextmedia.com/enews/realtime/20130921/51744735 on justjared the jen hens were saying the JPs have split that they are on trial separation and all that! They have been proved wrong yet again. I love the JPs!!!
There are pics of Brad arriving in Hong Kong today.
The same bodyguard that picked up AJ and twins, picked him up.
Jenhens have been saying and praying that they have split for 8 years.
@Kim1 they keep being disappointed I remember reading on JJ where a troll wanted to start a rumour that Brad was seeing a 16 year old blonde while in london and that she had evidence and was going to expose brad.. They just love to cook up stories and never get tired. Brad and Angie are in it for the long haul they are just wasting their time and energy trying to spin a split.
Her skin is flawless! What’s her secret?
People ask or tell me all the time “Get some sun.”, “Are you sick?”, “You’re pale”. It’s really rude and makes me uncomfortable.
I’m sorry I prefer to not look like tan mom.
Me too! I use the palest foundation that exists. People stopped nagging me when I started colouring my hair red. I have green eyes so they think I’m natural. For some reason it’s ok to have pale skin as a redhead. Go figure.
I’m in the same boat. And I have tried to use self-tanner but they don’t make one light enough for me — I just want a little color but all the self tanners I have tried give me too much color and then it doesn’t blend into my natural color and you can see all my self tanner mistakes.
This story sounds stupid but still I was a bit worried with this part “You don’t get the Vitamin D when you wear sunscreen, correct? Well, you get some but it’s negligible.”
Although the sunscreen will diminuish the amount of Vitamin D produced by our body when exposed to sun, the amount produced will still be more than enough. It is way more important to protect the skin with sunscreen!!! Plus, tanning beds don’t have the kind of UV that actually stimulate the production of Vitamin D.
Yeah, I don’t understand this article. I work outside all summer long and use a crazy amount of sunscreen every day. I still get really tan. Why do people think that sunscreen doesn’t let you get tan? It deflects harmful UV rays. You can get a sunburn through clothes or glass, because there are multiple UV rays we need to protect against, why would someone think that a tanning bed would be ineffective with sunscreen?
You should definitely be using sunscreen in a tanning bed! UVC waves don’t happen outdoors because of the ozone layer, and only exist in tanning beds!
Everyone should be wearing it anyway (no matter how easily you think you tan/the color of your skin, etc)! You still get vitamins, it’s not about getting tan or not, it’s about helping deflect the rays that cause cancer. People are really, really misinformed about sunscreen!
As a ginger that lives in Phoenix AZ I wear sunblock constantly but do still try to tan a bit to get my body ready for the summer months. My body just mainly freckles and burns but I do notice a difference when I prep my skin like this. I get slightly darker which helps prevent burning when it’s 118 out.
Amazing how so many know Angelina personally, her routine and the amount of nannies she employs.
This is about as silly as the tabloid story that claimed Brad was a vegetarian.The same week an interview came out where he talked about how he loved steak.Also he mentioned grilling burgers for his
family on the weekends. Aj is pale as Anderson Cooper yet she is addicted to tanning.GMAFB
What a silly story! I don’t really see Angelina as the kind of person to tan just so she fits in with the locals in the land of ‘blonde, bronzed, Aussies’. I live in Queensland, ‘the Sunshine State’ of Australia & me & my kids manage to get by without vilification for our pale skin just fine. Shockingly my kids suffer no bullying at school due to their fair complexions. Probably because the ‘sun kissed blondes’ are less predominate in this multi cultural country than any crappy Gold Coast/Beach side set tv show would have you all believe. Besides, Slip, Slop, Slap, sunsafety has been pushed in our schools for decades now, & there has been a successful skin cancer awareness program running for quite some time, so the dangers of over tanning are well known here.
ha ha ha thy ran same story before with Jennifer aniston on it. Now that was more believable with orange looking aniston.
CB gets their stories from ‘Star’ magazine? smh.
Are we still believing tabloid reports of Angelina and Brad? Didn’t we learn after her breast surgery that everything with this couple is super guarded unless it comes from the horse’s mouth?
THIS
This story is so hilarious, I almost fell down my chair laughing when reading it 🙂 🙂 🙂
I also love it that today we have a couple of stories with regard to skin regimen (this and the Eva Mendes post)!
I find her stick arms and legs really disturbing.
Well I guess you won’t be on any more of her threads looking at them.
Enjoy the celebs you like to look at. But bet you will be back.
Buhahaha they can’t stay away. They always come back!
You are so right @AKA.If they don’t want us to know we wont.
Sorry, I’m late to the show…It’s only 7:45 here. I’m sitting out on my porch looking at the ocean and the sun is in full force already.
Even being out for 30 minutes here requires full sunblock. IF Angelina is tanning, I don’t blame her at all if it is to prevent burning and blistering. Summer is on it’s way down here and the sun is usually around a UV index of 11. A lot of time in America in the middle of summer it’s an 8 or 9.
In other news, this is the one place I’ve been people don’t treat sunblock as a joke. I use it as my body lotion in the summer months.
If she’s going to be outside in the Australian sun, building a base tan isn’t a bad idea. The sunscreen isn’t as important as keeping your skin moisturized for what she’s trying to do. I used to put SPF 100 on my face AND cover it with a towel when I went tanning, Now I wear 5 layers of sunscreen & try to avoid daylight as much as possible, lol. The proper way to train your skin with a tanning bed is to use it 2 minutes a day for a week, then add a minute every week. The directions are right inside ever bed I’ve ever been in.
Speaking as a sun shy asian girl, SPF30 is not enough!
LOL moon, I knoooww… 🙂
Asian women — in particular my mom’s generation — don’t hesitant to use umbrella when walking out under striking sun. I used to mock my mom when I was a teen, but really, it’s actually a far cheaper way to protect your skin!
(I still don’t use umbrella, hate wearing hats, and very rarely put on sunblock — even daily skin cream and moisturizer — but I’m very lucky not to have any skin problem so far. Here’s hoping it stays that way! :))
what a bullshit story!! She is staying in SYdney not the outback and so its hardly like the sun is that bad here. And its not even summer here so the weather is no different to being in LA
Believe Brad and Angie is living separate lives,they have not been seen together for almost two years. Something is up, it’s soon going to come out sooner or later. Brad must have been caught by Angie looking at Aniston’s stiptease performance in We Are The Millers. As the saying goes old wood heats up quickly.
And now edit again for an ‘are’ instead of ‘is’ as the first verb. You can do it.
they really can’t deal; even after almost 8 years.
I want to believe that’s a snark too! But on the other hand both Brad and Angelina are presently in Hong Kong now.
I think that is their new mantra. Brad and Angie live separate lives. But they still managed to fly across the world to meet up in Hong Kong.. where they are now with the twins.
I don’t know if that is snark or not. But I do know that some of the trolls are having an epic meltdown when they found out that the JPs were together.
fun watching them spin out of control.
I wish someone would ask Angie a superficial question about her skin care. I mean to actually ask someone who REALLY has great skin what she does. Damn that would be an original idea.
Have you been living under a rock for the past two years? They got engaged last year.
That pretty much means jack s%*t! They are HW ppl. Everything is for PR. They’re selling the Brand. They also happen to have kids…co-parenting.
OK Maggie, they are living separate lives and are making periodic appearances together purely for PR, and their engagement is a farce, and Brad is secretly pining for Jennifer and wishes he had never left her and will carry his regrets to his grave. Are you satisfied now?
Why do you have such a problem accepting that Brad Pitt is happy with Angie and their children? You think he doesn’t deserve to be happy, so perforce he must be miserable. Whatever floats your leaky boat.
Yes, they are so separate that she flew with the twins 8 hours to Hong Kong to meet Brad who flew 12 hours.
But nice try anyway.
My parents divorced when I was two and remained friends. I lived with my mom and my dad lived just 2 minutes away. We went to dinner together all be time, hung out together – even traveled and spent holidays together.
Ok,let me see if i get you guys;No relationship in HW is REAL right?OK then.
No Kay that theory only applies to Brad and Angie.. nobody else. They get this all the time. They have been together close to 9 years. 6 children. But it is all fake. Because these people are still mad for some reason and it still hurts them so they say this relationship is PR..
seriously I don’t get it at all. Why they still can’t give this couple their due.
I’ve got to say i’m dissapointed,i guess that saying”with age comes wisdom” isn’t applicable to evryone.Too bad
I’m an Aussie in South East Queensland and believe me, nothing will prepare Angelina for the sun and the heat. I’m pale and I can burn in the middle of winter. She needs SPF 50 and parasols. My most horrible burn was in February, I had heaps of sunscreen on and was only outside for half an hour and I got burnt. The next day I was covered in blisters (some the size of cricket balls, my legs were swollen and full of liquid, I couldn’t walk the swelling was that painful. I had third degree burns. I was on bed rest for a week and half (and I use the term rest loosely), then my skin peeled off in sheets and not just one layer, quite a few, and the skin underneath was purple. it was awful and so so painful.
Its allegedly Spring here but its been quite warm so far. We are supposed to hit 37 and 39 degrees Celsius this week. Its dry heat so I can handle it but once the humidity sets in it will be unbearable.
Also- the sun kissed blonde is a marketing myth. Sure, we have sun kissed blondes and a fair few of them but Australia is multicultural and in my office right now I only see one sun kissed blonde but I see 2 of Italian descent, 1 Irish, 1 Chinese and a whole heap of others.
She looks amazing, especially in the 3rd picture with the twins.
Thin photographs very nice!
