Angelina Jolie Is A 'Little Bit Stronger' & Focusing On Family

Angelina Jolie Is A 'Little Bit Stronger' & Focusing On Family Following Her Tumultuous Year




Angelina Jolie has had quite the tumultuous year, but it's only made her stronger.
As you surely know, the A-lister's personal life was thrust into the spotlight after she filed for divorce from her longtime love, Brad Pitt. Regardless, throughout the difficult year, Miz Jolie has kept a relatively low profile and has focused on the well being of her children.
And it appears her kiddos' happiness helped Angie get through her highly publicized split. While promoting her new movie, First They Killed My Father, the actress turned director relayed to People:
"I have had my ups and downs. I guess I am a little bit stronger. We all have our difficult times, but as a mother you also have a responsibility first and foremost towards the kids. They are going through their formative years and everything else comes second to that."
There's no denying that Angie loves her kids. Though the 42-year-old's latest project had her behind the camera, the Oscar winner plans to continue acting. Regardless, her first job is to be a mom to Maddox (16), Pax (13), Zahara (12), Shiloh (11), and twins Vivienne and Knox (9).
On how she plans to handle being a single mom of six with her successful career, the industry vet dished:
"Everything will be around the children. I haven't worked for over a year now because they needed me home. Everything was just stopped. I'm really sitting and talking with them because everything affects them. Every location, every type of project, I'm going to have to adjust it to however much they can handle."
We're sure the Jolie-Pitt brood is grateful for their mother's attentive nature. Not to mention, the six siblings have been popping up at public appearances a lot more these days. Most recently, the Jolie-Pitt kids joined their momma on the red carpetfor the TIFF premiere of First They Killed My Father.
These outings may have something to do with the fact that Angelina's kids are "itching" to be out and about. She continued:
"I think they're itching to get out in the world again. We've all been a bit in lockdown and going through some things. I think it would be good to get out there and play together."
Sounds like a solid plan to us!
Thankfully, it appears as though the Jolie-Pitt matriarch will have plenty of time to spend with her kids as her health status is "so far" good. In case you forgot, Angelina previously underwent major surgeries in order to lessen the risk of breast and ovarian cancer (a disease which took her mother Marcheline Bertrand 10 years prior).
At the end of the day, we're just happy to hear that Angelina and her kids are doing so well.

Ariel Winter's interview with The Hollywood Reporter was really anything but lighthearted as she opened up about some of the abuse she endured as a child.
In the "Fishing For Answers" segment though, the actress got to have a bit more fun as she spoke up about her fave emoji, song, and more while fishing for questions from a fishbowl.

Angelina Jolie Epitomizes Sophistication With Her Kids At First They Killed My Father's New York Premiere!




Angelina Jolie and all six kids may as well have their own promo tour!
The Brangelina Brood have followed their momma and First They Killed My Fatherdirector to the film's major premieres from Toronto all the way to New York, as they displayed on the red carpet Thursday.
Looking elegant in a taupe Christian Dior gown, the A-lister was surrounded by Maddox (16), Pax (13), Zahara (12), Shiloh (11), and twins Vivienne and Knox(9), along with the movie's producer, writer, and some of the stars.
They were all spotted wearing plumerias, which are popular in Cambodia, where the movie takes place.
We wonder if this means if we'll be seeing the fam in public more often! As you've probably noticed, they've been out of the spotlight amid the divorce drama between parents Angie and Brad Pitt!
Regardless, it's good to see the fam looking happy together.

Selena Opens Up About Feeling Really Violated As A Young Star

Selena Gomez Opens Up About Feeling 'Really Violated' As A Young Star & The 'Slimy' Downside Of Fame




Selena Gomez's Disney days bring back some rough memories.
Continuing in her interview with Business of Fashion, the actress recalled what it was like growing up in the spotlight, especially once she started getting attention for her looks.

The former Wizards of Waverly Place starlet shared it completely changed her idea of fame:
"I think it changed when I started getting known for things that weren't [related to] my work. That's when my passion started to really feel like it was going further and further away. And that scared me."
And explained how it all "flipped" when she grew older:
"When I was younger, it was all fun to me. When I did state fairs and 100 people would show up, I would be stoked. That was the best feeling in the world. But when I got older, I started to become exposed to the truth behind some stuff and that's when it flipped a little bit. I realized that, 'Oh this is actually really hard, and kind of slimy in certain areas,' and I didn't realize that certain people wanted certain things from me. My confidence went through a lot with that."
One particular memory that comes to mind? Selly remembered being photographed at the beach as a teen:
"I remember just feeling really violated when I was younger, even just being on the beach. I was maybe 15 or 16 and people were taking pictures — photographers. I don't think anyone really knew who I was. But I felt very violated and I didn't like it or understand it, and that felt very weird, because I was a young girl and they were grown men. I didn't like that feeling."
It only got worse when she turned 18:
"Then, I would say the last season of my show, I was probably 18 years old, is when I felt like the flip happened. I didn't feel like it was about my art as much. I was on the fourth season of the show, and I felt like I was outgrowing it. I wanted something different and obviously I fell in love for the first time. There was all this stuff that was happening and I didn't know what to do."
As you probably remember, Gomez was dating Justin Bieber at the time.
It was also not long after this time that Selena took a break from doing music with Selena Gomez & The Scene, but she couldn't stay away too long:
"Well I stopped as well. I stopped and then I continued, because I realized that I needed to challenge myself. Do I really love this? Is this worth it anymore? I would look at my crowd on tour and think, 'Yes, this is worth it, right?' But then I would look at myself in the mirror and I just felt like 'I've had enough, I don't know if I can go on anymore.' And I stopped it for a second. But it didn't mean that I didn't love it, I just had to find what I was going to do with it. As long as I'm healthy and happy in my mind, I'm all about it."
The 25-year-old later explained there had been a few moments when she was ready to stop again:
"I've been through a lot, and I was so young, and there were so many moments where I felt like, 'You know what, I'm done.' But there is this fire in me that I can't explain. I'll have two days off and it burns. There's something inside me that knows I'm supposed to be doing something. I want to be communicating and creating and being stimulated. I want to keep doing things, keep progressing. I always want to challenge myself. So, I want to do the best that I can possibly do. It's cheesy but it's the truth."
Read on for more HIGHlights from the actress and singer:
On how she copes with being in the spotlight: "Balance the power of saying no and self-care. I have to take care of myself and not feel guilty about it. I will say no when I need to say no, and I will make sure that I will not overdo everything because I feel like if I don't accept everything that's happening then maybe it seems like I'm ungrateful, or I'm not doing enough. I just have to take care of myself. Therapy, faith, hard work, kindness. That's it."
On what makes her happy: "My boyfriend [The Weeknd] just got me a beautiful Chanel bag, and [I love it.] It wasn't because it was a Chanel bag, it's because of where it came from and what it meant. So I wear it so proudly, and I feel cute when I have it on. I feel like, 'I love this!' it makes me so happy. It literally just happened so all my friends are laughing because every time I have it on, I feel a certain way. And that to me is an experience. I see both sides, because I get to work and do different things. My job requires me to travel but I've been to a lot of places and I've seen nothing, so there's that too."
You've got to applaud her for being so candid!
Hopefully the star has no regrets!
