Naomi Wolf: Angelina Archetype of Liberated Woman

TresSugar — Tue, 09 Jun 2009 04:00:00 -0700

"Her persona hits an unprecedented level of global resonance - and makes women want to be with her and be her at the same time - because she has created a life narrative that is not just personal. Rather, it is archetypal. And the archetype is one that really, for the first time in modern culture, brings together almost every aspect of female empowerment and liberation."

- Naomi Wolf in Harper's Bazaar on why so many women find Angelina Jolie intriguing, beyond the fact of her beauty. Jolie, Wolf argues, is proof on some level that women can have it all. She’s a mother, a sex symbol, a humanitarian, and has been in both conventional and unconventional relationships. Finally, she seems unapologetic and has yet to be “punished” for her experiments as the stars of the past were.

Angelina Jolie Urges the UN to Act on Darfur

TresSugar — Fri, 05 Jun 2009 10:00:00 -0700

Darfur has almost disappeared from the news, and experts now call it a "low intensity" conflict. But the intensity of the crisis has not lessened for those who are struggling to survive. . . . Thirty percent of those displaced are school-age children. Girls leaving the [refugee] camps are raped; boys leaving the camps are killed. They want an education; they want to go back to their villages, to their land; they want peace. But they also want justice.

In an op-ed on Time.com today, Angelina Jolie attempts to lend some publicity to the crisis in Darfur. Today, the United Nations Security Council will look into the case against Sudanese President Omar al Bashir, who has been indicted by the International Criminal Court for war crimes and crimes against humanity in Darfur. Bashir has been accused of taking out his inability to defeat rebels on the civilian population by subjecting it to rape, hunger, and fear. Angelina hopes the UN will act on this indictment and end the suffering in Darfur.

TresSugar — Wed, 27 May 2009 04:00:00 -0700

In our last Do, Dump or Marry?, a commenter had a simple and brilliant suggestion: a Do Dump or Marry for the ladies who love ladies. (And for any straight man who stumbles upon TrèsSugar, here's something for you too!)

Who better to inaugurate this one than the woman almost all young Hollywood actresses say they have a crush on. The one, the only, love her or hate her. . .Angelina Jolie. Do, dump, or gay marry?

Sarah Haskins on the Angelina Reaction Shot to Jen at the Oscars

GiggleSugar — Sat, 28 Feb 2009 03:00:00 -0800

OMG, OMG Jennifer Aniston was five feet - no, no less than ten feet - wait! - less than three feet away from Angelina and Brad at the Oscars! This is deserving of some straight up Grassy Knoll chartage, dude. Enter Sarah Haskins, mocker of dumb celebrity news.

SNL's Abby Elliott Does a Spot on Angelina Jolie Impression

GiggleSugar — Mon, 02 Feb 2009 11:00:00 -0800

I had to do a double take when I saw this - and I was prepared for an Angelina impersonator and not the pillow-lipped fan of motherhood herself. During SNL's weekend update about the woman who just gave birth to octuplets, "Angelina" shows up out of nowhere to see if there are any babies left for her. Or Amy Poehler's newborn. Whatever.

Angelina Jolie Gets the Shaft Again!

GiggleSugar — Mon, 12 Jan 2009 13:03:27 -0800

Poor Angelina. First she had to endure (well, we all did) Anne Hathaway's interminable acceptance speech at the Critics' Choice Awards, and let's just say she didn't look too happy about it. Then, last night at the Golden Globe Awards, best actress winner Kate Winslet, when apologizing to the other actresses in the category, couldn't remember who "the other one" was she was apologizing to! Oh, man. Keep it short and sweet, people, or your speech will go down in the "You like me, right now, you like me!" annals of annoying acceptance speeches.

Is That an Endorsement? Angelina Hints at Vote For Family

LibertySugar — Fri, 10 Oct 2008 14:29:50 -0700

Actress and UN Goodwill Ambassador Angelina Jolie has warmed up to Barack Obama. The mother of six told German Vanity Fair:

Obama is fighting for international justice, he wants to intervene militarily in genocides abroad, and he wants to close down Guantanamo Bay. They are things which could move me to vote for him, not his roots. Of course, an American president like Barack Obama would be great for my family.

Stopping short of a full endorsement, Angelina said the fact that Obama would be a good example for her family isn't "reason enough to vote for him."

The support for some of Obama positions strays from her previous hesitation to bring home the troops from Iraq. In February she wrote in an op-ed: "As for the question of whether the surge is working, I can only state what I witnessed: U.N. staff and those of non-governmental organizations seem to feel they have the right set of circumstances to attempt to scale up their programs. And when I asked the troops if they wanted to go home as soon as possible, they said that they miss home but feel invested in Iraq."

Angelina's dad John Voight is currently starring in American Carol and has been campaigning for John McCain.

Looks like someone couldn't afford to pay a photo agency for the actual celebrity photo. Nice substitute.
