There’s more stuff from Evangeline Lilly’s cover interview with Women’s Health Magazine. I have no idea why this interview is coming out in drips and drabs, and they don’t have the any of the interview up on the Women’s Health site - but they do have one of the prettiest photo montages of Evangeline I’ve ever seen.
On Tuesday, we reported on the little snippet of interview Page Six got a hold of. Evangeline claimed that producers were always disappointed that she didn’t want to become the next Angelina Jolie. Some thought “Oh no she didn’t just compare herself to La Jolie” while I kind of thought Evangeline was using Jolie’s name as a way to say “I don’t want to be a big movie star.” It was open to interpretation, but now we’re getting a bit more context. In the same interview, Evangeline also refers to Angelina as an “ice queen” but says that she loves Angelina for it. What now?
Evangeline Lilly thinks Angelina Jolie is in “ice queen” — but insists it’s not a bad thing.
The Lost actress tells Women’s Health Magazine for its June issue that she admires the Changeling star, but wouldn’t want to be as famous as Jolie.
“No one knows that woman; she’s a complete ice queen, which is perfect,” Lilly said. “Why should she be any more? She doesn’t owe us anything.”
“Sure, I’d love to be her, but just the [humanitarian] side,” she added.
Evangeline is also bored of rumors that she’s dating former costar Dominic Monaghan.
“If I were to tell you that Sandra Miggum and Henry Pickett are dating, would you ever care? They’re completely fictional, so you don’t know them,” she says. “Well, people don’t know us. So why should they care?”
“Right now, I’m happy doing a job that’s not my ultimate dream,” she adds. “Even if you’re unhappy, just pretend that you’re happy.”
“Eventually, your smile will be contagious to yourself. I had to learn that — I used to think, ‘I’m being fake,’ but you know what? Better to be fake and happy than real and miserable.”

I don’t really think Angelina comes across as an ice queen, but I’ve never thought she was particularly smug either, and I know many, many people think that of her. Different strokes, different interpretations of behavior. Personally, I prefer Angelina’s cut-a-bitch stare to the neediness and desperation of so many starlets. Perhaps Evangeline’s “ice queen” comment is about how Angelina doesn’t seem to let the never-ending tabloid cycle get to her. Who knows.
Here’s what’s really bothering about Evangeline, though. It’s all of the complaining. Like someone forced her to dress up in great clothes, photographed her beautifully and held a gun to her head as she was being interviewed. If she doesn’t want to be a celebrity or an actress, fine. Quit Lost (please) and move away and do your missionary work. Problem solved. But don’t whine about it like it’s out of your control.

“LOST” hottie Evangeline Lilly and her hobbit-like fiance, Dominic Monaghan, have hit the skids. Monaghan, whose character was killed off the show, was spotted crying, holding and kissing a woman who was not Lilly at El Coyote restaurant in L.A. on Saturday, reports entertainment blogger Nelson Aspen. “They were right in the middle of the room, they weren’t interested in privacy,” he said. “They looked very intimate. They were nursing margaritas, leaning in, chain-smoking, having intense conversation.” The two eventually drove off in a Toyota Prius together. Reps for Lilly and Monaghan did not return calls.
