Angelina Jolie is a world-renowned actress and celebrity mom who constantly seeks to achieve balance between her work and personal life. Apart from her professional commitments, the actress also serves as an ambassador for several humanitarian causes. As a Special Envoy for the United Nations, the empathetic Angelina Jolie has a strong sense of responsibility towards refugees who have been affected by wars, political strife, and other calamities. In fact, in addition to having her own children, Angelina Jolie has adopted three children who were orphaned by war.

The actress and her superstar husband, Brad Pitt, have implemented some interesting parenting practices that, like all parents, draw praise from some and criticism from others. According to the Sydney Morning Herald, each of Angelina Jolie’s children is learning a different language.

In the years to come, fans can expect the star kids to attain mastery over Khmai, Vietnamese, German, Russian, French, Arabic, and American Sign Language.

Angelina Jolie’s goal is to represent and be a voice for refugees and to ensure that they are perceived as heroes who have battled the odds for survival. The Sydney Morning Herald reports that Angelina Jolie spoke about the importance of uplifting the esteem of refugees who are often deprived of respect.

“They are heroes in my house. I never want them to look at these people and feel pity. I want them to have so much admiration and respect.”

Apart from fighting for the rights of refugees, the Mr. and Mrs. Smith actress has also strived to care for the victims of sexual violence who are residing in areas ravaged by war. The actress has immersed herself in humanitarian work and she has been continuously globe-trotting to crusade for the welfare of the marginalized. In the past few months, the Oscar-winning actress has been shuttling between Washington D.C., Greece, and Lebanon to help the refugees affected in the region. Additionally, the Salt star is making efforts to improve healthcare facilities that are made available to women around the world. Her own experience in one of the hospitals in Namibia showed that women fail to receive adequate healthcare even in the best hospitals around the world.

According to International Business Times, Angelina has been so engrossed in her humanitarian work that her husband Brad Pitt has started feeling lonely.

In fact, there are rumors floating around that the couple is on the verge of a divorce, along with reports that the two actors are at odds with each other due to their careers. However, reports of Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt having marriage trouble have been as frequent and persistent as reports of Jennifer Aniston’s two-decade-long pregnancy and are generally just as baseless.

Even though their marriage is constantly the subject of attention in the media, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt have won rave reviews for their Miraval Rose, the celebrity couple’s wine from their French vineyard which was launched in 2012 and which has received wide acclaim. Angelina Jolie sought the expert assistance of Marc Perrin, the famous winemaker, to produce one of the finest wines to be made from Grenache Noir, Cinsault, and Vermentino grapes grown in the Cotes de Provence in France.

Angelina’s light rose wine has a healthy pink color and fresh fruit aromas that is sure to delight any wine lover. According to the Daily Mail, the wine is ranked amongst the top ten French wines in the world.

Angelina Jolie might appear to be a serious professional who is engrossed in meeting her professional commitments, however, the actress also realizes the importance of unwinding and spending some time laughing and having fun. Angelina Jolie, who voiced the deadly Master Tigress in Kung Fu Panda 3, took the opportunity to cut loose with her co-star Jack Black.

In addition to praising the theme and the brilliance of the film, Angelina appreciated the film’s underlying message of tolerance and acceptance. According to Express, Angelina appreciated the humorous demeanor of Jack Black and revealed that working alongside the School of Rock star made her come out of her shell and explore her own sense of humor.

“With Jack you get into it and learn how to do it a little bit. It’s nice to be with somebody that’s so full of life and humor and music.”
