Angelina Jolie ::seek refuge across the border in Ecuador


Hollywood star Angelina Jolie has visited displaced Colombians forced to seek refuge across the border in Ecuador, as a special envoy of High Commissioner for Refugees Antonio Guterres, according to the UNHCR. It was the first such working visit for the screen star since Guterres named her to the post this month. She has however been a UN goodwill ambassador since 2001, and as such made 40 visits around the world in the past decade.

 


The new post will see the Oscar-winning actress perform a more diplomatic role. "She is expected to focus on large-scale crises resulting in the mass displacement of people, to undertake advocacy and represent UNHCR and Mr Guterres at the diplomatic level, engaging with relevant interlocutors on global displacement issues," UNHCR spokesman Adrian Edwards said last week. Ecuador is the Latin American nation which has the largest number of refugees -- including some 56,000 from neighboring Colombia. Jolie visited with refugees in Sucumbios province on Saturday, the UN said.

Angelina Jolie ::Leg Scandals


The real hot topic from the Oscars last month was Angelina Jolie's right leg, which she constantly kept thrusting out from under her high-cut black Atelier Versace gown. Within hours, dozens of "memes" — a concept that spreads via the internet were created, with the actress's leg being digitally added onto everything from the Statue of Liberty to the Moon landing. So what did she think about the phenomenon?
"I honestly didn't pay attention to it," Jolie, 36, tells The Huffington Post in a new interview. "You know what I mean? I don't watch those TV shows and if I go online and see something about myself, I don't click on it. And the people I surround myself with don't really talk about that kind of stuff. I heard something, but I didn't pay any attention. It's as simple as a being a woman picking a dress you like and having a night, and not really thinking about anything else."
Even before the Oscars had ended that night, Jolie's daring look was the talk of the show. When she walked the stage to present the Best Adapted Screenplay award, the audience laughed when she jutted her leg out and gave them a knowing look with a hand on her hip. And when "Community" actor Jim Rash stepped up to the mic to accept his statue for "The Descendants," he also struck the same pose, albeit his leg was much more covered up. "Honestly, as soon as I saw her pose like that, I was like, 'I'm going to do that,'" Rash told Entertainment Weekly after the show. "I knew [fellow winner, director Alexander Payne] was going to take the reins, so I was like, 'How can I make a moment?' — selfishly."

Angelina Jolie :: Gifted WaterFall To Brad Pitt


The Oscar-winning actress Angelina Jolie purchased the land above and around a waterfall in rural California for the actor's 48th birthday last month. Budding architect Brad - who raises six children with Angelina - now plans recreate his hero Frank Lloyd Wright's famous Pennsylvanian Fallingwater estate. A source told the New York Post newspaper: 'Brad has always loved Fallingwater and his first trip there was unforgettable. Angelina wanted to get him something incredibly special and, because she knows how much he loves architecture, she thought this would be perfect. 'She hopes this will be a hideaway for the family.'




Brad has dreamed of a home with the sound of a waterfall cascading under the house. 'Brad has always wanted to design his own house. He wants to pull all aspects of nature, light, glass and varying levels into the concept. This is the present to top all presents.' And it seems Brad may have to make extra room in the house as Angelina recently revealed she could have another child. When asked whether she wants to expand her brood, she said: 'Nothing is planned at the moment, but we just don't know. I could end up pregnant.'
