Brad Pitt dropped $300K on a diamond necklace for Angelina Jolie in Hong Kong

^This is a photo of Angelina Jolie from 2004. It was the first thing that came up on one of our photo agencies and I just had a moment of falling in love with Angie all over again when I saw the old pics. I still think Angelina is extraordinarily beautiful, of course, but g—damn if the 2003-05 period wasn’t her most mind-blowingly gorgeous stage. So just for the hell of it, all of the photos in this post are from Angelina’s promotional tour for Alexander (late 2004/early 2005).

I have a real reason to discuss Angelina though! Angelina and Brad finally reunited last weekend after spending several weeks (or maybe a month) apart. Brad was in Telluride and Toronto for the film festivals, to promote 12 Years a Slave, then he was in England working on Fury. During that same time, Angelina and the kids were in Australia while Angelina scouted locations for Unbroken. But they finally reunited… in Hong Kong! Angelina brought Knox and Vivienne to spend time with Daddy. But it was something of a romantic getaway, a short respite from their busy schedules until, I’m hoping, Brad finished up with Fury soon enough. So hopefully Angelina got some alone-time with Brad (“Big Daddy”) too.

We got a tip from an Angeloonie about a shopping excursion Brad and Angelina took while in Hong Kong too. Apparently, they went to a fancy jewelry store and Brad dropped about $300,000 on a diamond necklace for Angelina plus three watches. I don’t know if the watches were presents Brad was giving to himself, or if Angelina gets a watch and a diamond necklace or what. I want to see the necklace though. You can see a video (of photos) from their shopping trip here.

    You’re making me hate myself. I was feeling good this morning too…

    She is just so stunning. Gorgeous as ever now, but I agree that she was mind-blowingly beautiful back then. She seemed to have more zest and life in her face when she was younger. Maybe it’s because she has a lot more on her plate now, but she doesn’t have that glint she used to have.

    Anyway, most definitely the most beautiful woman ever IMO.

    • LadyMTL says:

      ITA. I mean, on my best day I’m not 1/50th as beautiful as she is and I’m not saying that out of false modesty because I don’t think I’m ugly, lol. There’s just…regular lovely and Angelina Jolie OMG stunning.

      • TheOriginalKitten says:

        Exactly. Not to pick on Brandi, but just to use her as an example because there’s a post of her today. But probably if we saw Brandi in person, we’d think she was a REALLY pretty woman, but click on the Angelina post and you’re like “Holy SHIT, now THAT is real beauty.” Even Nat Portman, who is truly beautiful IMO, looks less gorgeous against Jolie.
        She’s just in a league of her own…

      • IN THE KNOW says:

        I’m all for acknowledging people’s unique beauty, as I can find the beauty in almost anyone. Whether it be the shape of an eye, the curl of a lash, what have you, but you guys really need some type of therapy. I’m assuming you are grown women and you’re on here talking about how beautiful she is and down trodden and ugly you are. “I’ll never be 1/50th as beautiful.” Jesus, ladies, really???? You don’t know what this woman really looks like, what she’s had done, what type of person she really is behind closed doors, etc…

        Grow up. Idolizing another human being is beyond creepy. Commend her charity work, and UN dedication, ok…but the level of obsession, as if she is ‘other worldly’ is beyond disturbing. SHE’S.JUST.A.PERSON. No better, no worse than you or me. Yes…even Angelina Jolie is A HUMAN. With human flaws. It’s ok to admit. If you had her money and access what do you think you’d look like???

        If you have kids, especially daughters, I hope that they don’t hear this kind of thinking, b/c lord knows what will do to their own self esteem, and where they’ll turn to for acceptance and attention, to validate their ‘outer’ worth.

      • TheOriginalKitten says:

        Good Lord, RELAX. It’s a gossip website that focuses on Hollywood, where image is a commodity-you’re really surprised that people are going to talk about a celeb’s physical appearance around here?

        I don’t have a daughter but if I did I would tell her that appreciation of the aesthetically beautiful is NORMAL and HEALTHY human behavior. Much like I get chills when I see a particularly glorious Picasso painting in a museum or when I got teary-eyed seeing the exquisiteness of Yosemite for the first time, being moved by the power of beauty is NOT something to be ashamed of.

        Finally, you’re making all these ridiculously broad judgments based on a few innocuous comments. Nobody is “worshipping” anyone here, just commenting on a woman who we happen to find incredibly gorgeous.

        So please get a hold of yourself.

      • skuddles says:

        IN THE KNOW, you are completely OUT TO LUNCH. How can you take a few harmless comments about AJ’s beauty (and by the way, I completely agree – she’s absolutely stunning and in a league by herself) and interpret it to mean OKit and LadyMTL are lacking in self-esteem? Nobody is idolizing anybody, they’re merely commenting on another woman’s beauty. They don’t need to “grow up” as you so bitchily put it…. but you should probably “wise up” before you start condemning others for what appears to be your issue – not theirs.

      • IN THE KNOW says:

        Whatever. Call it what you guys will. It’s one thing to acknowledge beauty, but what you guys do when it comes to Angelina is beyond reproach. It’s gross. Comparing her to a Picasso painting???? Really people?
        PR and media spin in this business is amazing. 20 years ago NO ONE was talking about how gorgeous Angie was, well because she wasn’t really. Interesting, yes. Crazy amusing, sure. Gorgeous??? I don’t think so. Years ago, she was a man stealer, husband stealer, blood vile wearing, fucking in a limo, tongue kissing her brother freak to most of you. And then she was 1/2 part of the ‘golden split’ (Brad & Aniston) and her PR machine went into overdrive. Adopting kids from around the world, publicizing her goodwill endeavors, etc. It’s all part of the machine people.
        So the fact, again, that you guys drink the Koolaid, and come on here to swoon like a bunch of Twilight fan girls, and don’t realize the reason you’re doing it is because you’re being ‘told’ to through media manipulation, is beyond astounding. I know this is a gossip site, one of my favorite’s actually, and with it being a gossip site, comes the fact that EVERYONE has and is entitled to their opinion on said topic. You have yours, and I have my opinion ON YOUR OPINIONS. Period. Bottom line is, you seem like a bunch of insecure women, who may or may not be that attractive. I just find the words you choose to label her with in comparison with yourself, which is weird in and of itself, is just…..sad.

      • Andrea1 says:

        IN THE KNOW my God what a rant. You need to chill and calm your nerves you are just ranting for nothing. No one here is insecure you need to watch what you say.

      • Rhea says:

        —–> Just cut it short by saying that you don’t like her because you think she’s a man eater and stole Pitt from the beautiful-sweet next door-all pure-never use any PR machine–Aniston, hence saying Jolie is not gorgeous. 😉 And yup, it’s your opinion if you think she’s not. Nobody have a problem with that.
        But you’re taking the girls words too seriously (when no one else here really taking it serious—since it’s just an expression of words). Which is weird and…sad….

      • skuddles says:

        Bottom line IN THE KNOW (I like how you feel the need to scream it), you’re just an asshole. With an agenda.

      • Paige says:

        ITK. Someone sounds very touchy. No one said you have to like her or think she’s beautiful and to insult others that think she is. How immature is that? What is the point of bringing up her past? All of that happened how many years ago. This woman has done amazing things, and bringing up her past doesn’t take away from the fact of how generous and giving she is. What does her looks have to do with her past behavior anyway? Your long rant is… sad.

      • Kay says:

        IN THE KNOW,i disagree.Jolie was already widely known in Africa for her kick-ass movie(tomb raider) and her beauty,and that was before brad pitt.The first thing i noticed when i saw the poster of tomb raider was her beauty.So i don’t know where you got the idea that she was considered beautiful after getting involved in that stupid”golden couple” whatever.

        It’s always nice to have a visit from one of the virtuous ‘carping’ harpies at Ian Undercover and Female First. Thank you SO much for stopping by to spread your special brand of cheer.

        Oh and by the way … 20 years ago Angie was 17 or 18 years old. She’s not as old as Jen-Jen. Please keep up.

      • TheOriginalKitten says:

        @ In The Know- Beauty is beauty and yes, an aesthetically beautiful person is no different than an aesthetically beautiful painting.

        Mostly, I implore you to seek therapy for your anger issues or at least smoke a large blunt. Something..anything…..because you sound really unhinged.

      • Ennie says:

        Some people are still jealous of Angelina for whatever reason, even if they try to rationalize their hatred, and including people who,like her in their disgust.
        What nice pics. She was so much beautiful, and still is! I loved her interview about her beauty in 60 minutes was it? Her response was great.
        Gorgeous and intelligent.

      • SamiHami says:

        Funny that you call yourself IN THE KNOW, since you don’t seem to know what “beyond reproach” means.

        Seriously, it’s a gossip site. People are just having fun. There’s nothing wrong with that.

    • paola says:

      She truly is out of this world.. but don’t you think something happened to her nose between pic 2 and 3?

      • Gistine says:

        Oh for sure. It’s obvious. Personally, I like her old nose. It softened her features.

      • Lucky Charm says:

        LOL, so she had time for a nose job in the middle of a promotional tour? If you read the post, all of these pictures are from the promo tour for Alexander.

      • mayal says:

        Lol, this third picture is taken before the first two (first two were taken during Europian promotion, which was after American promo). I guess her nose expanded!

      • Virgilia Coriolanus says:

        What I like about her acting, is that for me, even in a substandard movie, she always stands out. Like Alexander. That movie was so boring to me–I watched it because I LOVED her in the movie. I still watch her scenes on youtube. She was the best part of Alexander. I wish the whole movie had been her–she was definitely more interesting.

    • Diane says:

      I imagine given the horrors this woman has witnessed around the world in her role with the UN, it has to take a toll on her zest for life. I admire her.

    • carol says:

      oh come one, she’s a busy mom

    • Emma - the JP Lover says:

      @Cecilia, who wrote: “Her features are very exaggerated — almost like a caricature, which is even more pronounced now due to extreme thinness. She did have that sparkle back then — where did it go?”

      You mean for a ‘white’ woman, right? Because as a black woman, I can’t quite get what you mean by ‘exaggerated’ features. However … it ‘is’ your opinion, and I respect your right to express it.

      Now about that ‘sparkle’ Back then? You mean … before her mother died? You mean … before she was verbally attacked and scorned from all around the world by petty women projecting their own relationship problems onto her relationship with Brad and his divorce from ‘sweet, innocent, girl-next-door, just like me!’ Rachel Green … I mean, Jen? Do you mean before putting up with an increasingly crazy father? Do you mean, before she adopted two more children and gave birth twice–pregnant once with twins? Do you mean, before becoming a mother of six children?

      Honestly? I still see the sparkle. 🙂

    • cs says:

      @emma

      I know I should’ve said this a long time ago. But I’m glad you did. I do get offended as a Bi-racial but consider myself a Black women that my lips are monkey or gorilla like because I have full lips just like Angelina. I hear White women say her lips should be shrinking as she becomes older but they forget she doesn’t have their thin lips..and our lips don’t shrink to non-existent as we get older.

    • Emma - the JP Lover says:

      @Karen, who wrote: “I disagree. I don’t find Angelina pretty, beautiful or “stunning”. She has the nose of a boxer; the lips of a chimps butt and a large forehead.”

      As a black woman, I am extremely insulted by your insensitive words. I was a hair away from flagging your comment as ‘abuse,’ but even clueless troglodytes who live in the past are entitled to express their opinion, no matter how offensive.

      • Sal says:

        True, Emma. Anyone who can’t see that calling people with large lips, especially when they were born like that, ‘chimps’ butt can be seen as a racist comment, is a moron. But Karen is an Aniston fan. No surprises that she’d make a racist comment like that. Its par for the course with those lot. I dare them to go up to an African-American and say their lips look like a chimps butt.

      • Josephina says:

        Karen would probably do it in a drunken stupor and then claim later that she did not do it and had no recollectinon of events.

        And then she would go missing…

        Racists don’t like being called “racists.” They want to be accepted as natural and normal. And they are sure not willing to clean up their filthy thinking and behavior.

        Ever tried to correct one? They’ll fight you like you took away their dignity…

      • Sal says:

        deleted/double post.

    • Cecilia says:

      @ EmmaJP Lover

      I see her features as exaggerated for ANY woman — she looks almost cartoon-ish, to me. Everything about her is over the top. That vision of her encompasses everything about her — right down to her looks. Hope this clarifies.

  2. Frida_K says:

    Wow, so pretty…

    She’s always beautiful though. Just in different ways over the years. She’ll be beautiful when she’s quite old, too.

  3. Petee says:

    She just needs to put some weight back on to make her face fuller again.SHE is still beautiful but I do remember after seeing Mr.And Mrs.Smith I left feeling quite unattractive after gazing at her for two hours.She is stunning to look at.

    • Emma - the JP Lover says:

      “She just needs to put some weight back on to make her face fuller again.SHE is still beautiful but I do remember after seeing Mr.And Mrs.Smith I left feeling quite unattractive after gazing at her for two hours.She is stunning to look at.”

      Some of that stuff you just lose as you age. Angie lost weight after her Mom died and just never regained it all back. Most of it came from her face. I, however, do not see any difference in her lower body (from the neck down) at all.

      I agree, Angie was stunning beautiful in “Mr. and Mrs. Smith,” which didn’t gain her any favors (and probably helped fuel the hate) with Jen’s ‘she’s a sweet, innocent, girl-next-door’ fans when the shite hit the fan over Brad.

      I think her ‘glow’ in 2004 early 2005 came from being a Mom to Maddox. 🙂

      • Petee says:

        I agree.People saw her as this beautiful,man eating vixen.So her extreme beauty caused alot of hate.More people related with jennifer,because lets face it she is not pretty just average looking.

    • carol says:

      maybe brad likes his women thin

      • Bird says:

        I think Brad does like his women very thin, as they all seem to get crazy skinny when they’re with him. You have to wonder how he lets them know.

  4. Sal says:

    I love how beautiful she is in these pictures. No wonder people hate her, lol 😀

  5. Lizzie says:

    Eh, I’m no Brangeloonie, but she was definitely on my top ten most beautiful list before she got so skinny.

    Yes, she’s always been thin, but now she looks weak and unhealthy, and her sparkle is gone.

    And 300k for a necklace and three watches is nothing to them.

  6. emmie_a says:

    omg that third picture – GORGEOUS! So has she had work done to her face since these pictures were taken? Or maybe she just lost too much weight and the fullness in her face is gone? She’s still beautiful but here she is breathtaking…

    • LAK says:

      Weight loss

      • Bird says:

        Weight loss via the surgeon’s knife, you mean. Her face is completely different from when she was in Hackers. Please don’t bother trying to deny that.

      • Lucky Charm says:

        @ Bird – You do realize that Hackers came out in 1995, when she was only 20 years old, right? At 19/20 you can still have remnants of baby fat, and then as you get into your early 20’s it goes away and your face gets thinner. The only surgeons knife she’s been under was when she had her children via c-section.

      • Kim1 says:

        @Lucky Charm,Bird hasn’t aged in twenty years.As a matter of fact she looks younger than she did twenty years ago.

  7. Maria says:

    Gah, she was gorgeous here.

    She’s still lovely but too gaunt for me now (a good ten pounds would make a huge difference I think on her face).

  8. Andrea1 says:

    So beautiful a woman.
    I’m happy they still have time for a romantic getaway in spite of their very busy schedule… It keeps the spark in the relationship going.

    • Lucky Charm says:

      I recall an interview one of them said they make time because of their busy schedule. And that itself is romantic, when your partner wants to make sure they have time just for you. 🙂

  9. Lucy says:

    Her face was a lot fuller and she had on a bit more weight, I think that’s the biggest difference between her then and now, she’s still gorgeous but she always looked better with more weight on.

  10. CaribbeanLaura says:

    Seriously she is a STUNNING woman. Honestly to me one of the most beautiful ever. People can say whatever they want about her but they cannot deny her Beauty (Well they can, but i’ll disagree politely)

    Edited to add: I do agree about the comments about her with a ‘fuller face’ tho. She is still extremely beautiful, but slightly gaunt now and that does detract from her beauty.

  11. xboxsucks says:

    she is still gorgeous but she was Drop dead gorgeous once.

  12. Bird says:

    She was very beautiful back then. It’s a shame she has had her nose done again since then and her face is way too thin now.

  13. Just Passing Through says:

    Beautiful. 🙂 Life is beginning to take it’s toll, as it does to all of us, eventually.

  14. Kim1 says:

    Very tacky of that jewelry store to take still pics from security video.
    As for AJ looking better years ago she can join the club.I looked better ten years ago too I need to lose 30 #.Oh well…

    • Gia says:

      Re: the security video… I was just about to say this! That is utter horse sh-t that a store would do that. Especially a high end place where the patrons drop obscene amount of money. I admit that celebrities give up a large part of their privacy in return for the riches and perks of a celebrity lifestyle, but these two play the game. They cooperate with the paps and play ball when needed. I would be royally pissed at that store if I were them and would return the merchandise.

  15. Sara says:

    I honestly feel if she wasn’t so thin she would still look like this! She had more weight on her back then and it looked healthy!

    • Anname says:

      No, it’s 10 years of life lived since then. Still gorgeous, just getting older.

      • Kim says:

        It’s the weight, its the weight, its the weight. It’s so obvious and i cant even believe people can’t say it! Also, she does look pretty worked by the years, which is understandable, but her beauty may not hold up to aging…

  16. doofus says:

    she was gorgeous then and she’s gorgeous now, but I agree that she looks better here because of the fuller face. she’s much more “angular” these days.

    and she does also look a bit “different”. don’t know if that’s alterations or simply the fuller face and younger age.

  17. Brittney says:

    Thank you so much for throwing these pictures in. Work is already painful this morning, and this made everything better. I was in the peak of my Angelina fixation in the 2003-05 era, the last half of high school for me. I actually met her in 2003 in Central Park (with Maddox and Holly in tow, and not a paparazzo in sight), and I couldn’t stop shaking all day… she was that phenomenally beautiful in person. And skinny. Her legs were rail-thin even then. I digress…

    Anyway, if this is true (and I don’t doubt your tipster!), maybe we’ll see it on their next red carpet.

  18. Kate says:

    I think the best Angie ever looked was in the early stages with Billy Bob. The pictures where she’s at some premiere with him in just a T-shirt and leather pants are the best she ever looked im o. She had a little weight on her, she hadn’t done anything to her face yet, she’s wearing barely any make-up and her hairs dark and barely styled…I don’t know, back then she just seemed so fresh and vibrant and naturally beautiful. She’s still an obscenely beautiful woman obviously but after that she seemed to lose a little something. She started wearing a lot more make-up, she had a little work done, and probably the biggest factor; she lost a significant amount of weight. These days her features are much harsher. It’s not about her aging, because when I look at pictures of Angie’s mum in her 40’s and 50’s she always looked so much like Angie did in her early 20’s.

    • lisa2 says:

      You know her MOM looked fuller because of her cancer treatments. If you look at her mother when she was younger and just before she passed she was a naturally thin woman

      • Kate says:

        I wasn’t talking about Marcheline’s weight, though she was never quite as thin as Angie has been for the past decade, at least not before her illness really took a hold of her. She just always had a sparkle and a softness to her face (again, not talking about weight), that I haven’t seen in Angie since the early days of her fame.

    • cs says:

      Everyone is entitled to their opinion but, I though that her period with BBT was the worst she ever looked.
      Angie was dropped dead gorgeous after she adopted Maddox and got rid of him.
      But as Lisa said, people who’ve met her in person always say she’s stunning and photos don’t do her justice. Actually, Lainey said during her promo for Kung Fu Panda 2 (3 years ago) “How did God create this face”? So, I gather she still has it but, she’s no longer in her 20’s and now reaching her 40’s.

      • cs says:

        I forgot.. Kaiser, while you were displaying Beautiful photos of Angie you should have included Brad’s “Legends of the Fall” or “Fight Club” photos.
        That would’ve made my day.

  19. lisa2 says:

    She is in her twenties (late) in those pics. Women lose baby fat. the woman is stunning then and now. She just has a face that is Beautiful. I always listen to the people that have met her in person. ALL say that she looks better than the pictures (cray). But I have never heard anyone that has seen her in person say she looks less than expected.

  20. Nick says:

    That 3rd picture is…..amazing. Stunning. I could (and have) stare at that specific picture for hours.

  21. CaribbeanLaura says:

    I know I’m being loonie-ish. But seriously she’s like wearing minimal makeup in most of these pics (or so it appears to me) and she looks AMAZEBALLS!!!!! She’ll go down in history as being one of the great beauties for sure

    • Vicky says:

      She has amazing skin. She doesn’t need too much makeup. That’s why for me she’s a natural beauty and very photogenic. She looks amazing in thousands of photos especially the everyday paparazzi ones with minimal makeup. I can’t think of another celebrity that makes me gasp when I see everyday photos of them.

  22. Regina Lynx says:

    She’s so purdy. So very, very purdy.

    *sigh*

  23. Andrea1 says:

    For some women when they have kids they never regain their pre pregnancy body.. Some become So slim while some add weight.

  24. Maya says:

    What a stunningly beautiful woman Angelina is. I agree that she looks like a Goddess with some weight on her face but as people say – you lose weight when you grow older.

    However she seems to have gained weight in those Australian pictures we saw. Maybe she is slowly coming back to the 2003-2005 beauty era. If that happens then the haters will commit suicide 🙂

  25. Talie says:

    It’s hard to believe she was in her late-20s here… she looks so sophisticated!

  26. Virgilia Coriolanus says:

    Good God! I just can’t believe Dustin Hoffman or anyone else called her gangly and awkward when she was younger. Looking at her pictures when she was young, she’s always looked the same–she was always going to be beautiful. I can imagine how much ish was talked about her when she first came onto the scene–that she was just a pretty so and so–with a famous father.

    And I need a Brad Pitt to drop 300k (or even ten bucks) on some jewelry for me. I LOVE looking at jewelry, especially vintage.

    • Maya says:

      I dont need a Brad Pitt to buy me jewellery – I WANT BRAD PITT in my life period;)

      In my next life I want to be Angelina Jolie or Brad Pitt. I fancy them both so either one is fine.

      • Virgilia Coriolanus says:

        True, true. I have never been attracted to Brad (although I do think he is good looking), but I do love the way their relationship is. They’re a team. And I bet a good reason their relationship has been strong for all these years is because they put their relationship and family over work.

        No matter how beautiful Angelina is, she wouldn’t be able to keep a guy who she treats like shit. And vice versa. I’m not saying they’re perfect, and I’m sure they’ve both snapped at each other. But it just seems like they both took the mistakes of their previous relationships and learned from them. I love that–although I’d pay to hear an argument from them.

        But yeah, I always wished Angelina was a little more into jewelry, because we know that Brad would’ve gone all Richard Burton on her. I checked Elizabeth Taylor’s book out-the one about her jewelry-last year….my God! I was insanely jealous. It was a fifty page book, and they hadn’t even shown 1/3 of what she had.

        But who knows, one day my gravy might attract a dude who can/will buy me some diamonds……

  27. Scarlett says:

    If you love vintage jewellery check out LoveDesignerVintage . com They have some beautiful pearl and silver necklaces.

  28. Aud says:

    She definitely looks much healthier with a few more pounds on her.

  29. lucy2 says:

    I agree that was her best era. She will always have a beautiful face, but I agree with most that gaining a little bit of weight back would do wonders (I wish I had that problem!).

    I can’t imagine dropping $300K on jewelry. Even if I had that kind of money, I lose things too easily.

  30. Jordan says:

    That was definitely her high point for her looks. Absolutely stunning then. Still very attractive, but those pics are just gorgeous.

  31. Shelly says:

    She was stunning. She is still stunning, but in a different way.

    Great pictures. Almost 10 years later, she’s still so gorgeous (both inside & out)- Brad is a lucky, lucky man. And he knows it!

  33. Stunning on the Inside says:

    On 60 minutes, Bob Simon asked her about being beautiful and she gave a wonderful answer. Not surprising considering how thoughtful & articulate she is. Telling her daughters to make their inside stunning is such great advice- I wish more people spent time doing that!
    ______________

    Simon, who usually covers topics like war, revolution, and politics, tells Overtime that he sat down and gave some serious thought to his line of questions about Jolie’s famous face while preparing for the interview. He even did a bit of research with female friends. When your face is a million-dollar global brand, it’s not just a matter of “do you feel pretty?” Angelina’s thoughts on the nature of beauty, and what she sees in the mirror every day, proved one thing to us: she’s much more than just a pretty face.

    Just a stunningly beautiful person, inside and out.

  35. Kay says:

    She was and is still BEAUTIFUL.If she added a little weight i’ll hate her because she’ll just be too beautiful(that’s if its possible for me to ever hate her*sigh*)

  36. Maggie says:

    She was beautiful then. Not so much now.

  37. Camille (TheOriginal) says:

    Such a gorgeous looking woman. Stunningly beautiful.

  38. Paige says:

    Absolutely gorgeous. People seem to be forgetting she is ten years older,thinner, has had six kids, her mom’s death, and a mastectomy. I would look different too. She is just heartbreaking beautiful, inside and out. Brad and Angelina are such a lovely couple. I am a fan, but anyone can see this video is creepy.

  39. tracking says:

    It’s not just weight. She seemed more relaxed and comfortable in her own skin back then. But she seems like the type who’d put a lot of pressure on herself. And of course her life was far less chaotic back then!

      Well visiting fifty refugee camps listening to hundreds tell their stories of being raped,children being murdered or mutilated takes a toll on a person.

    Kaiser, here a link of the necklace or at least a replica of it.

      That doesn’t look like it should cost 250k–maybe the diamonds are high grade??? It’s a pretty necklace, but I was expecting Taylor-Burton diamond levels.

      And thank God Brad cut his hair!! Although it wasn’t as bad as when he had that braided goatee–maybe he was trying to be Captain Jack for his kids..

    • Janet says:

      Holy moly, Brad shed ten years with that haircut!

  41. Kim1 says:

    The twins are in England with Brad
    Angie and Zahara went shopping today in Sydney @JustJared

  42. Fan says:

    I am disappointed that they have not made the remake of Cleopatra movie yet. What are they waiting for? While we still have this beautiful woman. We may not have this kind of beauty again for a long, long time.

  43. floretta50 says:

    Before Lindsay Lohan messed up her face, and her whole life she was more beautiful than Angelina, every few years in Hollywood a stunning beauty comes along, Liz Taylor, Halle, Angie, after Angie it was Lohans chance but she blew it.

  44. Carry says:

    They spent two weeks apart not 6 or more Angie and the kids move to Sydney two weeks ago and before that Brad, Angie and the kids where in LA.

  45. bohemia says:

    Lovelyyyyyyyyyyyyy pics of Angie

  46. Claudia says:

    Ahhh, she was so freaking gorgeous then. Her face was a lot fuller, and that sun-kissed tan really gave her a healthy glow. She’s still a beautiful woman, and faces tend to thin out as we age (I mean, I hope so right? Because my cheeks could use a smidge of thinning out…), but she would look so much better with a little more fullness.

    Also, since these pictures were posted it made me wonder about old gossip… were Angie and Colin Farrell ever a thing?

  47. Naddie says:

    She’s the most beautiful woman in the world, period. And not shallow at all, but… something doesn’t feel right about her, I don’t know what. I don’t believe her charity work is genuine, none of what she does for people in need. Hope I’m wrong.

    • Claudia says:

      The thing is– even if that were so, what does it matter? The end result stays the same: she’s helping people and highlighting important causes.

    • Virgilia Coriolanus says:

      How can you say that she’s not shallow, but then you say her charity work isn’t genuine?

      I really can’t understand how anyone can say that the work she does isn’t genuine. I mean you can dislike her personally all you want, but what she does shouldn’t ever be thought of as not genuine. If you’ve ever seen an interview with her talking about her work, she almost always cries. Always.

      And she’s been doing this work for YEARS. Since 2001/2….so no, it wasn’t a last ditch effort to “save” her image. Most people who do charity to look good don’t do it for this long…..

      What makes you think she isn’t genuine?

      • Naddie says:

        Man, I said it’s something I just can’t put my fingers on, so I can’t explain in a decent way. There are many, many reasons why people do things, and IF (possibility, not fact) she’s not real with that, it doesn’t mean it’s necessarily for image or phonyness. It’s just a feeling I have, and I’d be glad to discuss it with her in person, with all the respect I have for her or any human being.

    • Janet says:

      She has been working for the UN for 12 years now. Why would you think her interest is not genuine if she’s stuck with it all this time? It’s obviously something that means a great deal to her.

  48. Rebecca says:

    I think the reason she looked more beautiful back then was because she had a bit more fat on her body. Now, she is just way too skinny.

  49. poiup says:

    I’m just commenting since so many here calling her the most beautiful woman ever. I’m a guy and she does zero for me. I think girls just tend to like the haughty glamorous look in other girls. I remember ages ago a girl telling me Christy Turlington was her role model, while for me girls with beautiful expressive facial character and features are 100x sexier. So Rachel McAdams, Kate Beckinsale, even Zooey Deschanel I consider more attractive than Angie. For glam look Megan Fox is just hotter than her as well.

    That’s just my opinion on why I’m not attracted to her at all, her face is just more frozen, less expressive than beautiful girls, although she looks more expressive than usual in top pic.

  50. Hmm says:

    So strange and frustrating how beautiful people are treated like saints–its completey assumed that they automatically have a flawless character and always do the right thing because they’re attractive. Can you not see how stupid that is?

    • A says:

      Who are you talking to?

      • lisa2 says:

        LOL.. reading the lecturers.

        I mean if anyone calls Angie stunning or gorgeous or whatever here comes the lectures going on and on about idolizing celebrities.

        I see people calling lots of other celebs these adjectives.. but I don’t see these same posters running to those thread and going on and on about how people are idolizing these women an how wrong it is to say these things about them. But if you say anything positive about Angie or Brad you are some crazy fan or Loon. Yet I can see RDJ or Fassbender or Cumberbatch or anyone being fawned over and nothing. Charlize can be called gorgeous or stunning or OMG she is the most whatever and nothing. But drop that about Angie or Brad and we get the moral lecture of how we are pathetic and have not life.

        I’m a fan big time. And I read and hear the reactions people have when they meet her or Brad, and it is a different thing altogether.

        if that upset the non fans and you don’t like it.. tough cookies.

    • Sal says:

      Oh yeah, Aniston fans prove this. They think shes so beautiful and therefore a good person. I had Anistonloon tell me once (when I told them Aniston is a homewrecker and stole Justin from Heidi) that “she wouldn’t do that, she is too beautiful and nice”. Ok, like, wtf??? O.o I just can’t with that.

  51. Elizabeth Rose says:

    I think she is absolutely stunningly beautiful beyond words. When I was younger and used to straighten my hair (I’m mixed black and white), people used to say that I looked like a black Angelina Jolie and I took that as one of the highest compliments I could ever receive because she is just stunning IMO. I think that her beauty stands alone, but coupled with her intelligence, generosity and the significant contributions that she has made towards women’s issues, and just plain humanitarian issues, it is impossible not to believe that she is an absolutely beautiful person inside and out.

  52. Marcus says:

    I don’t think Brad and Angelina went shopping for jewelry. WHy go to Hong Kong for a necklace. I think they quietly visited an orphanage to find their next child.
