Every time a sketchy British magazine repurposes Angelina Jolie quotes everyone gets all up in arms and says she’s talking again about how she hates Shiloh or is bitching about her charmed life. She does talk a lot of smack and should take a lesson from Johnny Depp and STFU, but it’s not like she’s continuing to give interviews to random gossip magazines when she doesn’t have a movie to promote.

She’s not my favorite person, but if she’s not saying these things again now why should we dig them up and complain about it like it’s new? Oh I know, it was expected to have been a slow news week but then Jamie Lynn got knocked up. We need a break from her so let’s talk about these suspicious quotes.

Here are the latest quotes from Grazia Magazine which a lot of sources are reporting are new. Compare them to her past statements.

From Grazia according to US Weekly, published today:

Jolie, 32 — who says she lost weight while grieving over her mother’s passing in January — opened up in the new issue of Grazia magazine.

“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.

Compare to US Weekly, published on June 14, 2007:

“I’ve always been lean and this year I lost my mom and I’ve gone through a lot…”

“Instead of people saying I look like a person dealing with something emotionally, they assume it’s because I want to fit into skinny jeans.”

She added, “Someone saying to me that I’m thin is not a compliment.”

From Grazia according to US Weekly, published today:

Jolie said she got through her death of her mother, Marcheline Bertrand, thanks to the support of her beau Brad Pitt.

“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.”

Compare to Fametastic, published on June 11, 2007:

Angelina told the Mirror recently: “When my mother died, Brad held her hand and helped me through all the stages of dealing with someone dying.”

“After the funeral Brad brought everyone back to the house and asked questions about our mom. He focused on all the love and all the joy we were fortunate enough to have had. He is an extraordinary man.”

“I am a very lucky woman. I have a beautiful family and Brad is a supportive friend and a great father. And he is very romantic. We talk very deeply about how we feel.”

Grazia was successfully sued by Kate Winslet for making up shit wholesale. Do you think it’s more likely that they have a new interview with Angelina that sounds almost exactly like her previous interviews or that they rephrased her sentences slightly to make it seem new?

Meanwhile one story about Brad and Angelina that sounds more current and likely is that she bought him a custom $100k motorcycle for his birthday. It is said to have a plaque on the front that reads “My sweetheart, the drunk,” a reference to the posthumous album released by musician Jeff Buckley.

ANGELINA JOLIE treated BRAD PITT to an extra-special 44th birthday present – a $100,000 (£50,000) motorcycle engraved with a tribute to his favourite musician.

The actor was seen taking the bike for a spin earlier this week (begs17Dec07) after taking delivery of it before his birthday on Tuesday (18Dec07).

In front of the handlebars is a plaque with the words, “My Sweetheart, the Drunk”, the name of a Jeff Buckley album – Pitt’s favourite singer.
