Angelina Jolie Disturbed About The Media's Focus On Her Weight

Angelina Jolie admits that she got too thin this year while mourning her mother, but is still disappointed in the media for focusing on her weight.

"The thing that's disturbing is that instead of people saying, "This looks like a person that's actually dealing with something, probably from emotions,' they say, "Does she fit into skinny jeans and look thin?'" Jolie said.
"I want people to understand who I am as a person is not somebody that's trying to look thin, but just trying to work through a very difficult year," she said.


That kind of loss is something I am not ready to understand. Everyone deals with heartache in different ways. Thankfully for Angelina, she had someone to help her through it. Here she is recalling how wonderful Brad Pitt was during that trying time.

"He is just a great friend and when my mother passed, he was so great," she said. "He sat with me and held [my mother's] hand. After she passed away he spent the night asking me and my brother about our mother and got us to tell funny stories about her.
"He focused on all the love and joy we were fortunate enough to have had," Jolie said. "He was extraordinary."

I have lost both a mother and a child. I did lose weight after the death of my daughter, but not my mother.When you are already thin to begin with, losing more weight because of stress is not a good thing, plus stress makes you look terrible anyway. Hopefully she is feeling better.

Sam I am with you she is a low life and a liar and I concur she was not anywhere near her dying mother. I understand that heroin addicts once and always battling the heroin horse and that is more to the point about what ails Ms. Jolie! She is so full of it and if she suffers pain from loss then she needs to know "You reap what you sow!"

Brad sounds like a real gem!*** NOT!!!***
HE is a back stabbing jerk. What he did to his 1st wife is unforgetable.

I saw her in an old interview on Letterman a couple weeks ago and she was skinnier then than she is now.

I think some people are just overreacting.

When my husband died at 26 I lost 20 lbs in 3 weeks and it took me almost a year and a half to gain it back. Deep sorrow can crush you.
