I was browsing through vector art looking at some of the incredible things people have done and was a little perplexed to see several...well, many...portraits done of Angelina Jolie. I would be curious to know what the appeal of Angelina Jolie actually is to people. She's a moderately attractive woman but I would have to staunchly disagree with anyone who seriously suggested that she's a good...or even a decent actor. Has anyone SEEN Alexander? Did anyone HEAR the horrible affected accent that she concocted for that movie? Can you tell me from what country that accent derives? It sounded like the accents that me and my little buddies used to affect when we were in elementary school and pretended we were from some unknown foreign country. Besides that, she's a flake with a capital 'F'. Who, in their right mind, would tell the world on camera they'd had sex in the limo on the way to an awards show? Who would give their BROTHER a passionate 'lover' kind of kiss the way she did, again on national television?
She's a 'spectacle' and nothing more. She's also John Voigt's daughter, which, I'm sure, helped her career immensely. She did a remotely good job on Girl Interrupted but that was before she realized she was a star.
I get weary of these icons who truly don't deserve that status.
