"Angelina is one of the most misunderstood people in the business and I have to confess I had my own misconceptions about what she would be like. She is one of the most level-headed, bright, decent people I've ever met and she is entirely devoted to her son Maddox." - Brad Pitt

"I think volunteerism should be fashionable. That's my goal. To make volunteering the new black," he says. "Angelina Jolie is seemingly doing an incredible job at philanthropy. I think she's found her niche, just like I feel I've found mine. She's a great ambassador." - Jon Bon Jovi, today's Daily Telegraph interview.

"I'm obsessed with her," squealed Lohan of Jolie. "I just saw an interview with her where she said her favorite word was 'raw,' and I was so excited because it's my favorite word, too." - Lindsay Lohan

When asked what she admires about Jolie, Kerry Washington replies, "Her honesty. Her strength. Her unapologetic sense of self."

People find it bizarre and extraordinary that we were together. To me, it's not. Angelina's image is of a wild, crazy femme fatale. She's not. She's a very nice, very generous person. A big-hearted girl. She just says what she's feeling. She doesn't get up to any more mischief than your average person... well, maybe a little bit. - Jonny Lee Miller

Jonny Lee Miller has been called the "British Brad Pitt", was once married to American film actress Angelina Jolie and can claim Ewan McGregor and Jude Law as close friends.


"I was afraid of her. She was too beautiful for me. She was too smart for me. She had too much integrity for me. I felt so small next to her." - Billy Bob Thorton


1) Here's a great one from Ethan Hawke who worked with Angelina in "Taking Lives": "Angelina Jolie? Sometimes God just gets it exactly right."

2) Kerry Washington: "Angelina Jolie is not only one of the nicest people I've ever met. She's also the smartest." Another time, when Angelina had just adopted Kahara, Kerry said, "That little girl is one of the luckiest little girls on the planet. Thank God for you, Angelina."

I don't know whether this could actually be considered a celebrity quote about Angelina but I found it interesting and you guys might, too. It's a conversation between Donny Deutsch (a big PR/advertising guy) and Doug Liman (director of MAMS) on Donny's CNBC talk show on 6/24/05. After showing a clip from MAMS:

Donny: She [Angelina] is SO magnificent. There is something about her -- I've heard more straight women say, "I would do her." There's something about her both men and women -- "

Doug: She's EXTRAORDINARILY sexual . . .

Donny: But there's, I don't know if there's a combination -- obviously beauty plus strength and there's a little veneer of masculinity in there. But, literally, I've had 20 straight women say, "I would never be with a woman but I would be with her." I mean, there's something about her sexuality . . ."

Doug: Yeah, I heard all of those rumors too, but none of those women ever visited the set. . . (both laugh) or ever really made a move on her . . .

Donny: (laughing) Too bad . . .

Doug: so I think it might be a lot of talk but I do hear straight women talking. You never hear them talk about any other woman . . . [Donny kept interrupting him with his exclamations]

Donny: I know, it's amazing, it's just fascinating.

Doug: . . . thank God!

Donny: She's just, she's just stunning. What was the set like? You guys -- was it a fun, a congenial set, a tense set?

Doug: It was pretty congenial. I mean, the thing is, Brad is such an easygoing, fun-loving guy. He comes from like the midwest, he likes riding his motorcycle, he's like, you know, he's like a boy with toys, so he definitely creates an environment that is very laid-back. She's a lot more professional in some ways. You know, sometimes we'd be wondering where Brad is and we'd find him by the pinball machine in the back corner of the soundstage, you know. [Donny's chuckling here.] You'd never find her in that kind of environment but the two of them were such sort of consummate professionals, there was just NO bs. I mean, she wasn't late -- this was like a 110 day shoot -- she wasn't late ONCE. You always hear stories about movie stars like pulling sort of movie star stuff, you know --

Donny: What I found that's interesting in business and I hear this from directors all the time -- the BEST CEOs, the BEST, the top politicians -- they DON'T have that stuff --

Doug: That's right.

Donny: -- the REAL superstars are past that stuff and they wouldn't be where they are if they carried that stuff.

Doug: It's exactly that. I don't think it's a fluke that Brad Pitt's Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie's Angelina Jolie. These people have worked extraordinarily hard to get where they are.

Wyclef Jean (the one who threw the Haiti benefit with Angelina last month in NY): "Angelina was born with kindness. She is just pure in what she does."

Sophia Bush (of "One Tree Hill"): "She is an admirable, amazing woman."

Bono joked to Worldpop that Angelina Jolie almost broke up their band as he revealed the Edge failed to invite him on the set when Angie was on there, "We've been together a few years now but the thing that nearly broke us up was Edge hanging out with Angelina Jolie." The Edge shot back, "It was a closed set!"

"I don't know if I've worked with another woman who really knew how to be the lead of a movie. " - Ethan Hawke

"I was shocked. She is so solid. It was like having Clint Eastwood around." - D.J. Caruso (director of Taking Lives)

"I think its about low maintenance and I would say Angelina Jolie is the most beautiful one right now." - Ally Sheedy (Who the Glam Find Glam InStyle Oct 2005)

"Mr. and Mrs. Smith. Brad Pitt showed a little comedy and it's never bad to have to look at Angelina Jolie for two hours. She's the best visual effect ever."

''The hottest woman on the planet is Angelina Jolie," she says. ''But that's, like, a universal truth, right?" - Bonnie Somerville, Kitchen Confidential (Stuff Magazine)

Val Kilmer's role in Alexander (2004) consisted largely of throwing Angelina around in bed, which, he later said, "is about as much fun as a man can have." After filming wrapped, Val revealed a little secret that he hoped to keep from Angie and director Oliver Stone. While shooting the raciest bits, Val would wait until the end of the scene and then deliberately flub his lines so they would have to do it all over again. "I spent four months doing that," he later marveled, "and someone paid me millions of dollars!"

The Face of An Angel
The (London) Independent

By LUCY YEOMANS
Editor, Harpers and Queen


It's interesting, because we polled over a thousand people, and Angelina was a clear winner. She seemed to be as much of a favourite among women as men. We asked people to look at beauty in its broadest terms; taking into account intelligence, sexuality and confidence. Angelina's a very physically beautiful, sexual woman " women are very attracted to the strength she exudes " the power she seems to have in her relationships, to her work for the UN. She's man's woman and a woman's woman, and that's why she's so far ahead in the poll. I was amazed by how far she was the winner.


GAULTIER DEBLONDE
Photographer

She is definitely the most beautiful woman I have ever photographed. I thought that she was completely natural. I didn't feel she had had anything done to her face at all, it was a natural beauty she had, not a plastic one. It was almost like she was so beautiful, she wasn't quite human.

HARVEY MARCUS
Celebrity editor, Marie Claire

Part Marilyn Monroe, part Marilyn Manson: Hollywood couldn't have invented a modern-day sex siren better than Angelina Jolie. The movie industry is obsessed with playing the percentage game and here's a girl who simply adds up in all the right ways. She stops traffic, she's the man-eater, she's an earthmother, a strong woman and she plays by her own rules. The only person who can seemingly control Angelina Jolie is Angelina Jolie herself. That danger, that wild spirit, that independence; that's what makes her such a beauty. She's 3-D. And that's become more and more of rarity in Hollywood these days.

PEROU
Judge on 'Make Me a Supermodel' and celebrity photographer

She's a deal-breaker between me and my wife. I think it's called a 'celebrity get-out' now. I'm sure it's never going to happen, but if Angelina did come begging, I'm sure it would be a deal-breaker.

BAY GARNETT
Fashion stylist

She's just got that classic sultry thing that's quite rare now. She's sexy. She doesn't have a forced sexiness, she is sexy. You literally can't look at her without thinking about sex. She doesn't try, she's not making that much of an effort " but you can see why Hollywood wives say that if she's in a film, their husband isn't allowed to do it. She's more than beautiful, she's really sexy, she's hard, she's knowing, she's independent. She's a cool chick.

MARTIN KELLY
Member of British Association of Aesthetic Plastic Surgeons, at the Chelsea and Westminster Hospital in London

I think it's quite straightforward why people consider Angelina Jolie to be the most beautiful woman. We look for two things in a woman's face, we have two beauty detectors in our mind. One is youth and the other is fertility " and the two go together. The femaleness of her face is exaggerated, and these are traits that we're all going through at the moment. For example, she has slim almond eyes, and she has fuller lips than most women and she has this short upper lip and a short distance between the lower lip and the chin, and a small cute nose. So she's a sort of an average face that is excessively well proportioned in certain areas.

There was a theory that if you average out the faces in one population, you get a rather beautiful average face. She has that sort of a face. She's so beautiful that she's off the spectrum. It would be unrealistic for someone to come to me and say: 'Make me like this.' She has a mouth that's very difficult to make, to get small lips to look like that is very difficult, and we've all seen in the media examples of that going wrong. The lip tends to swell in the wrong part if you just inflate it with volume. I don't know if she's had hers slightly enhanced or not, I'm not sure, but even without enhancement the proportions of her mouth are hard to reach surgically. She has a lovely chest and a slim waist " she's every man's dream kind of a babe. She's a sort of icon of physical harmony.

LUCINDA MYSON
Casting Director on 'Troy' and 'Alexander'

Having travelled the world looking for leading ladies for two of the biggest budget classical epics ever made, I've learnt some things about what constitutes beauty. I first saw her on the set of a 007 film with Oliver Stone, wearing a hard hat. Even then she just exuded something very special. I then worked with her on Alexander. Her face, feature for feature, is not classically beautiful, but she is one of the most beautiful people I have ever seen on screen. It is something which you can't quite put your finger on. Her grace, her poise, the way she moves. She doesn't compare to the screen goddesses of old because she is cut from a completely different cloth " she is a star for our times, with a very modern type of grace.

If she were fresh out of Rada or Lamda or wherever, and she walked into my offices I would instruct the nearest person to restrain her until we had cast her in something. She has got it.

RUBY HAMMER
Make-up artist and co-founder of cosmetic company Ruby and Millie

It is a combination of classical beauty and her public image that make Angelina Jolie so attractive. She never looks overly made-up or like she has gone to too much trouble " instead she appears effortless. There is something about her that says strong, sexy and mysterious which makes her attractive and intriguing to men and women alike.

JEFF BLAYBLOCK-RAYNER
Celebrity photographer in LA

Yeah, she's got something special. She has a natural hold over her own appearance. She is genuinely beautiful. It's a natural beauty. A lot of today's celebrities spend three hours in make- up before they come out looking shiny, and anyone can do that. I've seen Jolie with no make- up on and she is still stunning. It's extremely unusual. She carries herself well. She's not one of these divas who comes across as demanding everything all the time. I'm sure she requires a high level of maintenance but she comes across as someone who wouldn't demand a table in a restaurant or any of that rubbish. She seems down to earth, and all the more beautiful because of it.

KAREN DIAMOND
Director of Models 1

What we like about her is that she's real. We see her glammed up for the Oscars but we also see her looking beautiful with no make- up on. And, while her figure is certainly an aspirational one, it's not a stick insect's figure, it's real. However, she is very much of the moment, she gets lots of exposure in the press with all the controversy about her and Brad Pitt, and I suspect that's part of the reason she's so celebrated. I'm not sure she'd make it in the modelling world, she doesn't have the wide-eyed, doll-faced look popular at the moment.

MARK BENNETT
Casting Director for 'Monster's Ball', 'The Woodsman', and 'Alexander'

In this time in which celebrities go out of their way to show how 'normal' they are, how 'just like us', Angelina Jolie makes no pretense of the kind. Her life is writ large, and unabashedly in the public eye. She doesn't WANT to be like us. As such, we find ourselves wanting to be like HER. Also, in a time when ingenues are rewarded for cuteness and a certain dewy sexlessness, Angelina projects the most modern of sexualities " carnivorous, omnivorous, and unapologetic. Most Hollywood actresses cast themselves as the girl next door; Angelina Jolie doesn't look like she's ever lived next door to ANYONE.

MICHAEL WINNER
Film director

She's all right. But beauty is in the eye of the beholder. Lots of people are beautiful, except for me. Harpers & Queen are not exactly the intellects of the Western world but if that's their opinion of Angelina, then good luck to her. I think she's an extremely beautiful woman but I can think of lots of others more worthy of the title.

Colin Farrell

"It was ironic she played my ****ING mother," says Farrell, sounding rather Oedipal after all. "She's right-we are really, really alike. I don't believe in all that ****ING hocus-pocus, but we are both Geminis. Maybe we are more twins than the same person. I've never met anyone who has so much going for her that is also so selfless. Angie is openhearted. And so very, very, very honest. She's an amazing woman. An amazing ****ING person."

Lindsay Lohan has a crush - on AngelinaActress-singer reveals sweet side for Jolie, and Brad Pitt, at awardsLindsay Lohan attends the premiere of "King Kong" at the Loews Times Square theatre Monday in New York.


Updated: 6:07 p.m. ET Dec. 6, 2005
Braving the cold at this weekend's VH1 Big In '05 awards, Lindsay Lohan lit up the red carpet with her new darker 'do.

When Lindsay stopped by to chat with Access Hollywood, we found out she had babies on the brain - though not her own of course.

"Brad Pitt is adopting Angelina Jolie's children," Access Hollywood's Shaun Robinson told Lindsay. "What do you think?"


"I think he is fantastic," Lindsay smiled. "I think they care about each other and it's very hard to find that in life. More power to them."

And thanks to doing her homework, Shaun knew a little secret that Lindsay had shared with us in the past.

"You've got a big crush on him too, right?" Shaun asked.

"Well, he's beautiful. But I've got more of a crush on Angelina though than Brad," Lindsay laughed.

"Uh oh. She's breaking news to me!" Shaun said. "Her crush isn't on Brad…"

"Don't run with it, no, no," Lindsay giggled. "Please no."

"Oh, you know we're going to run with it," Shaun laughed back.

Sorry Lindsay, it looks like we just did.
