Angelina Jolie in Ralph Lauren at Paris ‘Maleficent’ photocall: stunning or budget?

wenn21322444

IT’S HAPPENING. It has begun. The Leg foretold this. The Leg prophesized: “And there shall be a great clamoring in the heavens, and the angels wept as Angelina Jolie begins to promote Maleficent.” Amen. First, to get in the mood, listen to this as you’re reading:

Angelina Jolie and Elle Fanning were in Paris yesterday when nearly every other A, B and C-list fashion girl nursed their Met Gala taffeta hangovers in NYC. Angelina was all “Surprise, bitch.” The Jolie Moment is upon us. And she will be with us for the next month. AT LEAST. Dear Jesus: please let Angelina Jolie have a “surprise, bitch” moment at Cannes. PLEASE.

Angelina is wearing Ralph Lauren and Elle is wearing Valentino. Angelina’s ensemble is boss. I hate a peplum, but this is by far the most tolerable peplum I’m ever seen. I even hestitate to really call this a peplum –it seems more like a fitted strapless blouse with a little belt. The whole thing fits her really well and I’m kind of amazed it’s staying up. Angelina also wore special Christian Louboutin heels – I’m including a close-up. Elle is wearing special Charlotte Olympia “Sleeping Beauty” shoes too.

Oh, and I love that they’re holding hands!!! Elle and Angie are really sweet together. I would imagine they’re less like friends and more like mom-and-daughter.

    I love a jumpsuit – AJ in a jumpsuit? Made my day 🙂

  2. LadyMTL says:

    I love Angelina’s outfit, it’s something that I would love to have in my closet…even those amazing heels, lol. I mean yes, she looks a little thin (not concern trolling, promise!) but still, awesome look!

    • Josephine says:

      I was actually thinking that she looked slightly fuller than she was a few months ago. She has always had super thin extremities so they look especially thin when her weight is down. She looks healthy though.

  3. Tapioca says:

    AJ looks like Posh Spice, the oversized boob years.

    Elle looks great, even if the blonde shade washes her out.

    I might watch the film on Netflix in 2 years’ time if the reviews are good.

  4. MrsBPitt says:

    Angie looks stunning! I love her in that outfit! She always looks fantastic in pants! Elle looks adorable! Love, love their shoes! This superfan is so happy that the Maleficent promotion’s have begun.

        @Aurie …

        That’s a wonderful picture! Thank you for sharing it with us. 🙂

    • lower-case deb says:

      AJ’s are Loubutins specially made as Maleficent tie-in, and EF’s are Charlotte Olympia. Stella McCartney does the kids line and a special edition gold clutch…
      a lot of High Fashion labels in one Disney movie!

    • phlyfiremama says:

      What you said!! Can not WAIT to see this movie!!

  5. capepopsie says:

    Definitely peplum. She looks stunning.

  6. Earth to Kelly says:

    Gorgeous

  7. Not a rude person but... says:

    Stunning.

  8. Mouse says:

    I love Angie’s shoes! They are perfect for Maleficent!

  9. daisyfly says:

    I am loving the hand holding! How genuinely affectionate and sweet to see.

    • Rhea says:

      They both seems to have fun and happy in each other’s company. Jolie seems to finally have a good rest as she seems radiant.

    • Dani2 says:

      It is very nice to see, they really have bonded and it makes me all the more excited for this movie.

  10. Kiddo says:

    I like her minimalist approach. I know some will say she’s boring, but at least she doesn’t overdo with jewelery and ridiculous fashion for attention. Her face and the shoes get the spotlight. She doesn’t turn herself into a designer’s hanger. The understated nature is her calling card.

    • Exactly–she’s not someone (for better or worse) who will wear a designer just because they’re trendy–she wears what she likes. You won’t see her wearing some absolutely ridiculous, monstrosity of a gown at the Met Gala, that she knows is ugly, but is wearing it because it’s from a famous designer–for instance.

      • Kiddo says:

        Yep. Someone here mentioned how actresses used to pick their own clothing for awards ceremonies and how it all changed once the trend of stylists happened. I like that Angie does her own thing. And really, when you have a face like that, you don’t need to distract with a lot of ornamentation and someone else’s ideas.

      • I can see why you’d want a stylist–but man, if I could have my pick of couture, I’d pick out EVERYTHING. I like to think that I’d be a biracial version of Elizabeth Taylor…..the jewelry p0rn, the formal gowns with gloves….my version of heaven. I seriously had a dream that I was one of her granddaughters, coming to try on jewelry.

      • doofus says:

        “You won’t see her wearing some absolutely ridiculous, monstrosity of a gown at the Met Gala, that she knows is ugly, but is wearing it because it’s from a famous designer”

        amen, sister. I laugh my butt off when a celeb wears something that is HIDEOUS but they do it because “it’s Versace!” or Gucci, or some other high end brand.

        yeah, whatever…it’s STILL ugly. (and I know people like them, but that’s how I feel about the Vuitton “initial bags”. UGGO, and the only reason people carry them is because it’s obvious that it’s an LV bag…)

      • doofus, I f-cking hate those LV bags. They are SO TACKY. Ugh. I can buy bags that are a lot nicer, that don’t have the designer’s logo all over it. They better pay me for advertising for them, if they want me to carry their ugly bag around.

  11. serena says:

    Oh my god, finally!! I hope their stylists will do a better job next time, their outfits are so boring. Whatever, I’m so excited for this!

  12. lower-case deb says:

    if twitter is to be trusted, then she will be in London’s Kensington Palace tomorrow!
    unfortunately, no Baby Boy George, to play a cameo King Stefan.

  13. Black orchid says:

    That song is a bit haunting isn”t it? almost feels like as if its Angie singing iit ,also that hand holding is a bit strange ,may be iam mistaken but i must say i think Angie looks her more beautiful now than she did during her younger days

  14. Frida_K says:

    Oh my God, I’m having a SHOEGASM!

    I LOVE those shoes!!

    Be still, be still my beating HEART!!

  15. Len says:

    Can we now safely say she went for bigger boobs?

    • Emma - the JP Lover says:

      @Len, who wrote: “Can we now safely say she went for bigger boobs?”

      If you can find a picture of Angelina Jolie prior to her double mastectomy–and post the link so we all can see it–in which her breasts look noticeably smaller than they do above, you will have proven your case. But consider … there must be ‘some’ reason why people claiming her breasts are (now) bigger haven’t posted a damning picture as confirmation.

  16. brionne says:

    The peplum gives her some curves. That’s a good thing. How is she thinner than a teenager after pregnancies? Surprise beyotch!

  17. lucy2 says:

    I like both outfits, dislike both shoes.

    • V4Real says:

      The shoes looks like something Lady Gaga would wear when she’s tonning it down a bit.

  18. truthSF says:

    I like her (Jolie’s) outfit, but i think it really works if you’re tall and have long legs like Jolie and Elle.

  19. Isa says:

    I wish she would wear something other than black.
    But the outfit fits her nicely. It gives her more of an hourglass shape which she doesn’t naturally have.

  20. Lilacflowers says:

    Those shoes are insane! I NEED them!

  21. Lark says:

    Angelina looks fantastic. I actually think this is the best she’s looked in a few years.

  22. Birdie says:

    The song is amazing.

  23. lenje says:

    Nice! Angelina looks great, and the shoes are interesting (they don’t look too comfy though, and it looks like anyone wearing them might fall off anytime). I love both women’s outfits, and really like Elle’s shoes and the fact that she’s dressing age appropriately.

  24. Toot says:

    Angelina looks great and I love the shoes.

  25. Artemis says:

    Yaaaassss Elle Fanning’s shoes: they’re the best, the cutest! Yaaassss at her being so cute in general, slay a bit more young thesp. Mini yass (because they half-assed it) at The Joling holding hands.

    I love how they are having fun and having their little moments. I’ll take this over her and Pitt’s RC moves tbh. This is new and fun.

    Jolie’s body might be thin but for these type of outfits, it’s perfect. She can easily become a fashion icon if she put in some effort but this bish knows she owns everybody with a simple outfit and crazy shoes. None of my faves can except for Blanchett and Theron maybe.

    I’m a bit wary at the story of Maleficent (I don’t want a reason for M. being evil!) but take my last savings queens. I’m not even going to pretend that plot > actors. Please…

    • I’ll like this movie a lot better than Sleeping Beauty. Maleficent is what saved the cartoon for me. I never thought the story was all that interesting–just Maleficent–because Aurora was boring….all she did was sit around, be pretty, and sleep. So I saw the orig. cartoon a few times, but that was it. Best part was when Maleficent turned into a dragon…

  26. Aurie says:

    You can hear the first 6 minutes of the opening….the christening scene here. No visuals, just audio.

    Angelina sounds amazing casting the curse.

  27. allons-y alonso says:

    Lordy, I love Jolie’s shoes. Exquisite

  28. DavidBowie says:

    She looks fantastic! I can’t wait to go see this movie.

  29. lower-case deb says:

    i just read the OST tracklist, and the final track is “Queen of Faerieland”, which followed “Maleficent Kidnapped”.

    unpopular opinion: i hope she won’t end up being a good fairy afterall.
    sometimes, cartoon villains don’t need redemption.

    • V4Real says:

      +1 I hope they don’t play it in a way that makes the audience sympathize with her too much. She needs to remain true to characte.r

  30. cro-girl says:

    Beautiful, she has the figure for it.

  31. aenflex says:

    She looks great. Both of them.

  32. GeeMoney says:

    Angie looks good… and I’m digging the shoes. Love her!

  33. Helvetica says:

    EAT!

    I love her shoes though.

  34. Dawn says:

    I see nothing budget about Angie. She is stunning. Her makeup is not over done and those shoes are just too cool for school. Again save the budget for women who can take an expensive dress and make it look like drapes that came from Sears.

  35. Andrea1 says:

    She looks stunning..

  36. Ginger says:

    She is just stunning! She looks happy and healthy. I love the lighter brunette color she’s been rocking lately too.

    • Savanna says:

      Those implants have really settled, right? Even as soon ago as awards season they still looked like they hadn’t really fit her frame yet. She looks like she’s gained a little weight too, she just looked a little bony before and I’m so attached I worry about her. But she looks so gorgeous! And super healthy 🙂

  37. Nicolette says:

    She looks hot, and is one of the few women that peplum looks good on. The shoes are actually perfect, and definitely have a ‘Maleficent’ vibe.

  38. Jmo says:

    The cover of the song is awesome! So fitting, Lana’s voice is so appropriate to the vibe they’re channeling! Can’t wait to see this, always love when AJ puts on a Brit accent!

  39. salma says:

    i love the whole outfit but not so much her face

  40. Jade says:

    I don’t think Angie does accents well but I’ll still love her heh

  41. Sal says:

    STUNNING!!!

  42. Jayna says:

    She looks great.

  43. Hissyfit says:

    The jumpsuit fits her like a glove! I think she gained a few pounds on her face as it looks fuller. She looks great! Elle looks adorable!

  44. Andrea1 says:

    Angie covers Elle magazine and my God that face is just breath taking.

  45. Savanna says:

    I can’t get over how adorable they are together. There should be more women in Hollywood like Angelina! (Which is true for millions of reasons, but I really just mean willing to mentor, befriend and even guard young actresses instead of feeling the need to stand out or compete.) Ugh, she’s an amazing role model. Every time.

  46. Nic says:

    That’s a cool tune.

  47. The Original Mia says:

    She looks great. Love those shoes.

  48. Juliette says:

    Angie looks flawless.

    Missed her!

  49. MissTrial says:

    Her makeup could have been better but she has such a lovely face. And she looks so happy. She seems to have some more weight on her too, she looks much better than of late.

    Again, she has lovely features.

    Her fashion is not my cup of tea but she is better of late, less sack-y.

  50. Maggie says:

    Love the outfit! It looks great on her however she appears much older than she is.

  51. kalena says:

    This is what Kim Kardashians poor delusional brain thinks she looks like in peplum!

  52. xboxsucks says:

    Maleficent looks lovely(well maybe lovely is not maleficent fave word).
    fanning is adorable

  53. Camille (The Original) says:

    She looks fabulous. Love the shoes and the nod to Maleficent.

  54. Nibbi says:

    1. I feel like that’s not really a peplum at all but like you said, simply a belted top. peplums stick way out on purpose, this is not really extreme.
    2. those shoes- wow. angelina wearing those shoes- more wow. she usually wears very simple, in fact rather plain shoes, and i dig that about her. but those are amazing and i diiiiggg.
    3. k um so i’m rather jealous that chick gets to hold angelina’s hand. yeah, i am. full-on brangeloonie moment cuz i’m a straight chick. i suppose this is nothing new.

  55. zut alors! says:

    Angie looks great! I am so glad she is doing the press tour with Elle.

    Look at her shadow in this picture….it’s kinda Jessica Rabbitesque. I think it’s hot and hilarious.

  56. LazyMom says:

    I zoomed in on those shoes even before the featured close up pic. You can see there was something special about the heel!
