ANGELINA JOLIE





Angelina Jolie  was born on June 4, 1975.Angelina Jolie  is the daughter of  Jon Voight  and actress Marcheline_Bertrand born in  in Los Angeles.

At school, she joined a gang called the Kissy Girls, who hunted boys down and kissed them until they begged for mercy - until the school called a halt and the gang broke up! Money was tight whilst Angelina was growing up, but Marcheline made a point of taking her children to the movies as often as possible. Angelina claims that these family movie outings were what first inspired her to dream of becoming an actress.

At the age of 16, Angelina split up with her punk rocker boyfriend, and decided to revive her childhood dreams of becoming an actress. She moved into an apartment opposite her mother, and secured her first on-stage role, as a German S&M dominatrix! For the first time ever, she also began to make the peace with her father. She realised that when it came to acting, he had a great deal to teach her. With her braces and glasses gone, she even succeeded in landing work as a model, and even appeared in the video for Meat Loaf’s 'Rock’n’Roll Dreams Come Through'. She also appeared in promo videos for Lenny Kravitz and the Rolling Stones.
In May 2008, Jolie announced that she was once again pregnant with twins, and her and Brad Pitt's children, Knox Leon and Vivienne Marcheline, were born by caesarean section in Nice, France, on 12 July 2008.
Her role in Clint Eastwood's drama 'Changeling', based on real-life events, which premiered at Cannes in 2008, earned the 35-year-old her second Academy Award nomination.
