Her break with her father, her feelings, marriage, and filled the affair, her charity – this woman’s every move is drawing the attention of Hollywood. She starred in the critically acclaimed biographical films George Wallace and Gia, and won an Academy Award for Best Supporting Actress for her performance in the drama Girl, Interrupted. Jolie achieved wider fame after her portrayal of video game heroine Lara Croft in Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, and since then has established herself as one of the best-known and highest-paid actresses in Hollywood. She has had her biggest commercial successes with the action-comedy Mr. & Mrs. Smith and the animated film Kung Fu Panda.

Jolie has promoted humanitarian causes throughout the world, and is noted for her work with refugees as a Goodwill Ambassador for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees. She has been cited as one of the world’s most beautiful women and her off-screen life is widely reported. Jolie and Pitt have three adopted children, Maddox, Pax, and Zahara, as well as three biological children, Shiloh, Knox, and Vivienne. Jolie’s numerous tattoos have been the subject of much media attention and have often been addressed by interviewers.
