Angelina Jolie: How Loving Brad Pitt Changed Me
Fri, 10 Oct 2008 13:20:59 | Rate news: +1
An intimate and serene Angelina Jolie graces the cover of W magazine's November issue, breastfeeding one of her newborn twins and looking happier than ever in the provocative, compelling photo. In the issue, the star divulges similarly candid details about her world-famous family's personal lives -- discussing everything from how partner Brad Pitt changed her views about pregnancy to describing twins’ Knox and Vivienne’s budding personalities! Bringing you straight into their home in southern France, her movie-star beau Brad took the shots of Angelina -- some of them goofy and light, others sexy and scintillating! One photo shows the beautiful humanitarian snuggling with son Pax and gazing at daughter Shiloh. In another, the hot mom strikes a pose in the devastatingly sexy way that only she can do. In the interview, the 'Changeling' star praises Brad for inspiring changes in her -- most notably, influencing her decision to get pregnant, an idea she admits she resisted at first in favor of adoption. The couple has three adopted children together: Maddox, Zahara and Pax. The couple's biological children are Shiloh and infant twins Knox and Vivienne. After adopting, "[Brad] stopped talking about having other kids in the other way [by natural birth]. So I suppose in my heart I realized that he was happy with them as his children, completely. I knew he would never see them as different, and that gave me a certain peace. Then I suppose I just looked at him and loved him and just felt open to [getting pregnant]. I suddenly wanted to. It’s one of those things you can't explain." She describes newborn Knox as "very chill" and says he "loves music" like his dad, while Vivienne is a "studier" and "more demanding," Angelina tells W. And as for her post-pregnancy body, Angelina tells W: "I’m with a man who’s evolved enough to look at my body and see it as more beautiful because of the journey it has taken and what it has created. He genuinely sees it that way. So I genuinely feel sexier." Of the $14 million fee that People and Hello! magazine paid her and Brad for the first pictures of their newborns, Angelina admits: "There's nothing to say other than it's bizarre. But we're happy that we have our hands on it to distribute it to people we think are worthy, rather than some paparazzi." The A-list couple donated the money to their charitable foundation. Read the full interview with Angelina -- complete with intimate pics snapped by Brad at their home in southern France -- in the November issue of W.

In a new essay for the Huffington Post, Ryan writes that he's not naturally inclined to run a marathon: "I am not a runner. I'm a running joke." In fact, a few years back he watched the finish of the New York marathon from a comfy vantage point near Tavern on the Green, and remembers: "People were crying. People were limping, hobbling, screaming, crawling. But most importantly, people were experiencing a sublime rapture that I couldn't even hope to understand." But that didn't convince him, "At that moment, with all the energy, inspiration and passion swirling through the crisp, autumnal air, I breathed in deeply and decided something: I'd never f***ing do that ever, ever." So what changed his mind? Ryan gets serious and writes that his dad, Jim, suffers from Parkinson's disease. In a conversation with Parkinson's sufferer Michael J. Fox, Ryan recounts, "In a moment of extremely poor judgment, I offered to do something big for him -- I offered to compete in the New York City Marathon. Which was, well … dumb." Ryan, who promises to "sob uncontrollably" during the race, says that no contribution is too small (or too large) so if you'd like to help the fight against Parkinson's, you can contribute on his donation web page at Michael J. Fox's Team Fox for Parkinson's Research site.

Angelina Jolie: I'm Very Happy, Lucky
Fri, 10 Oct 2008 03:57:03 | Rate news: +0
Angelina Jolie is exploring more of her feelings on motherhood in a new article with Parade magazine.   "I'm just a mom and I'm very grounded by my family. I'm very happy, and I'm so lucky," she tells Parade. In the upcoming film, 'Changeling,' the mom of six young children plays a woman whose son is kidnapped. When the police return "her son" to her, she realizes that the boy isn't her child at all. "It if wasn't real, everybody would just say it's too far fetched to be true," Angelina says on the shocking plot twist, "But this is about an actual women who fought the system and found justice in the end, even at the risk of her own life." Angelina says that her role as mom to Maddox, 7, Pax, 4, Zahara, 3, Shiloh, 2, and twins Vivienne and Knox, almost 3 months, helped her prepare for the role: "As a mother, it was harder for me imagining that someone was abusing my child while they were wondering why mommy wasn't coming to save them. As a mother, that's just the worst possible scenario. So this film was very, very painful." Angelina even talks about her relationships with Parade, saying she is still "good friends" with ex-husbands Jonny Lee Miller and Billy Bob Thornton, and honestly helps her in her relationship with partner Brad Pitt: "I don't want to spend my life pretending to be somebody else, and I don't want the person next to me to have to pretend ever, because we have a long life ahead of us."
