Angelina Jolie & Brad Pitt Go Their Separate Ways
Angelina Jolie and her eldest child Maddox Chivan were spotted making their way thru LAX Airport this week bound for the Middle East where Ange will be doing a bit of work as Goodwill Ambassador for the UNHCR (United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees) … while her hubby-like partner Brad Pitt was spotted tooling around LA on his hog:
Presumably, Dad Pitt will remain at the homestead to care for the rest of the Brangelina brood while Angelina is off saving the world. Santa Angelina has already made her way to Baghdad, Iraq to do her good work. Here is a photo and some deets on Angelina’s visit to the affected region:
Angelina Jolie took a day trip onThursday to Baghdad. The actress and UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador is there to speak out for aid on behalf the millions of Iraqis displaced within their own country and the 1.5 million more Iraqis displaced out of the country. This is her third visit to the country in recent years. On Tuesday afternoon Jolie and eldest son Maddox took off from LAX, where they were heading to the 24th annual Arab Children’s Congress in Amman, Jordan. The pair were reportedly going to be staying with Jolie’s friend Queen Noor.
You can read the full text of the UNHCR press release HERE. I’m always amazed at how much time and devotion Angelina puts toward her charity work. It makes ones head spin just thinking about all commitments Angelina keeps in her every day life … whether they be personal, professional or philanthropic, Angelina Jolie works hard, y’all! Kudos to her for her continued zeal to try and help heal the world.

i commend her for her time & devotion to other causes & using her celebrity status to help out other countries…but what about the people in the same situation that are here in the US? I say take care of your own first….

Trent! You headline totally freaked me out! I thought they were splitting. Then I read the rest. Good for Angelina and all the causes she supports. More celebrities should use their money and status to do the same.

@nae: i believe their foundation also helps those who are in dire need in your country. besides, a life saved is a life saved, no matter the nation.

I think that it’s hypocritical of her to do all this charity work and then on the other hand, steal someone’s husband. Give me a break.

Ditto to Meghan, Ania and Brooke. I literally spluttered when I read the ‘Still Fresh’ links on the sidebar!
@Jessica, how is doing charity work hypocritical at all??? In what way does higlighting the plight suffered by less fortunate people in world compare in any way to ’stealing someone’s husband’? You’re implying that she can’t do something ‘good’ i.e. charity work and then something ‘bad’, i.e get with a married man. Well, I’m sure the millions of displaced Iraqis feel pissed that she has the audactiy to speak up for them after her heinous crime.
