Angelina Jolie
Born in Los Angeles, California, Angelina Jolie is the daughter of actors Jon Voight and Marcheline Bertrand. Jolie is the niece of Chip Taylor, sister of James Haven and the god-daughter of Jacqueline Bisset and Maximilian Schell. On her father’s side, she is of Slovak and German descent,[5][6] and on her mother’s side she is French Canadian and is said to be part Iroquois,[7][8] although Voight once claimed Bertrand is “not seriously Iroquois,” and they merely said it to enhance his ex-wife’s exotic background.[9]
It is still unclear if Angelina Jolie will support Barack Obama for president and over the weekend the Obama campaign announced the ticket for the November elections as Washington insider Joe Biden was added to the ticket. Will Obama-Biden be mocked just like Angelina Jolie and baby daddy Brad Pitt were when they sold their photos to People magazine?

It certainly seems like it will be easy to do. According to a report from CBS News, Obama-Biden have granted their first interview to People magazine. That’s right, after losing ground in the polls and being mocked for being nothing more than a celebrity like Britney Spears and Paris Hilton in a very successful ad campaign by rival John McCain, Obama doesn’t give his first interview with his new running mate to Time or Newsweek, he goes to People magazine.
After her parents’ separation in 1976, Jolie and her brother were raised by their mother, who abandoned her acting ambitions and moved with them to Palisades, New York.[10] As a child Jolie regularly saw movies with her mother and later explained that this had inspired her interest in acting; she had not been influenced by her father.[11] When she was 11, the family moved back to Los Angeles and Jolie decided she wanted to act and enrolled at the Lee Strasberg Theatre Institute, where she trained for two years and appeared in several stage productions.
She later recalled her time as a student at Beverly Hills High School (later Moreno High School), and her feeling of isolation among the children of some of the area’s more affluent families. Jolie’s mother survived on a more modest income, and Jolie often wore second-hand clothes. She was teased by other students who also targeted her for her distinctive features, for being extremely thin, and for wearing glasses and braces.[11] Her self-esteem was further diminished when her initial attempts at modeling proved unsuccessful. She started to cut herself; later commenting, “I collected knives and always had certain things around. For some reason, the ritual of having cut myself and feeling the pain, maybe feeling alive, feeling some kind of release, it was somehow therapeutic to me.”[12] At 14, she dropped out of her acting classes and dreamed of becoming a funeral director.
