In my effort to merge the now-deleted list from the article Gay icon to the Gay icons category, I have added this page to the category. I engaged in this effort as a "human script", adding everyone from the list to the category, bypassing the fact-checking stage. That is what I am relying on you to do. Please check the article Gay icon and make a judgment as to whether this person or group fits the category. By distributing this task from the regular editors of one article to the regular editors of several articles, I believe that the task of fact-checking this information can be expedited. Thank you very much. Philwelch 20:57, 24 Mar 2005 (UTC)
Hey, whatever. I have seen maids in my country who are a million times prettier than this Angelina Jolie... thing.
On regards of the gay pride thing: Personally, I wouldn't feel any pride on talentless people like Angelina "pig liver lips" Jolie being gay.
Oh, by the way boys, I'm male and heterosexual. So, I'm not biased, just stating what her marketing team wont allow you to think.
Well, as an actor, Angelina's looks are an important part in her career. Sadly the entertainment industry is very superficial and appearances play a significant part in the work an actor recieves; it's just part of the trade. So I personally feel that her beauty (or lack of it, according to some) is a tolerable subject. In my opinion, Angelina is the most gorgeous woman I've ever had the pleasure to lay eyes on; but beauty is in the eye of the beholder, so obviously not everyone is going to agree with me. There's no need to start an argument about it. However, I would like to ask those of you who don't think Miss Jolie is beautiful: what actresses do you find attractive? I'm not trying to fuel a possible spat, I'm just curious. Thanks in advance. 04:48, 6 April 2006 (UTC) Lola
Personally, I think it’s rather ridiculous to reference “beauty” in the first sentence of the article. The introduction should offer a non-controversial summary of the topic where no references are needed. Just take out the “great” and return to the phrase that was used a few days ago.

I heard she was pregnant with both kids. But others say no. I can't find any info on a google search either way. 212.0.138.94 00:18, 13 Jun 2005 (UTC)
Part of what a continually updated encyclopedia like Wikipedia does is we include current events. Several major media outlets including the New York Post are reporting the rumors that Angelina is pregnant. Although her publicists deny this - just as they deny the romance with Pitt - the fact major media reports this makes it notable and worth mentioning; if it had been a single source, or originating from a blog or whatever, I wouldn't have added it. But once it's in major newspapers it becomes notable. I certainly do not support the deletion of the tattoos section so I put that back (and what was with that edit summary "Can't you see I'm not proud of these tattoos"? Is the editor trying to claim to be Angelina Jolie? If so, I'm available! ;-) 23skidoo 1 July 2005 12:11 (UTC)
I often see that when people either become an American citizen or an American citizen becomes a citizen of another country that it is always stated that the person will retain both citizenships. This seems redundant to me as most of the time (from what I know) people will retain their former citizenship. SD6-Agent 17:33, 12 August 2005 (UTC)
A couple of times now attempts have been made to list Jolie under a Cambodian People category. These categories should only be used based upon country of birth. Just because Pierce Brosnan is now an American citizen, he shouldn't be listed under American people, should he? If someone makes an article on Maddox, that's another story. Let's not get carried away. 23skidoo 21:18, 15 August 2005 (UTC)
this article is one of the most hilariously non-neutral things I've seen on here.
GO GET A LIFE PEOPLE!!!!
I came on here, prepared to make an essay about how brilliant Angelina Jolie is. But, instead, I'll just simply say that anyone, who has the ability to help the world, live comfortably, change someone's life without knowing it [as she did with mine], and still maintain a family is unbelievable. She is the only person in the world who has every inspired me, and I know that anyone who reads about her, but is willing to accept the slighty 'unorthodox' life she lives, will be inspired too. I think she is wonderful, and hope she continues her humanitarian work with the United Nations and helping other randomers [like me!] for a long time. Yanington
A trivia item was added recently stating that Jolie is an atheist. I deleted it for now because it seems to contradict other statements that have been made in Notes from My Travels and elsewhere. If anyone can provide a source - an interview, a book - that can support this statement, please feel free to put it back (with the source cited, of course). 23skidoo 19:07, 16 September 2005 (UTC)
Your admiration for her does not make the article impartial Curphey 18:10, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
I added the category "Cambodian people", as I read in a magazine about a month ago that she had a Cambodia state membership approved. I also removed the category "Gay, lesbian or bisexual people", as it is covered by the category Bisexual actors and Gay icons. However, I must say that I find these gay categories to be very biased – there is no heterosexual (normal, only about 1 % is gay/bisexual) counterpart.

This article is starting to become a gallery. Can we pick three fair use images, maximum, to illustrate? I suggest one magazine cover, the book cover, and if we can get a public domain image of her that everyone agrees on, that's fine. It's debatable whether we really need an image of one of her tattoos, and am uncertain whether it qualifies as fair use. I'll let others hash out whether it should stay. 23skidoo 21:42, 12 October 2005 (UTC)
She had plans of adopting a Russian boy(mosnews.com)7 month old Gleb from baby house 13 but gave up on this. Later adopting Zahara from Ethiopia.
Poor kid!!!
He's still only 3 and he does not still realize what a great life he missed with such a famous celebrity for a mum and the she flirts with famous guys like Pitt,he has narrowly missed a life of luxury.
Shouldn't someone tell her about this,I mean what she did was wrong right,one day he's supposed to be the son of one of the most famous women of all (besides Oprah,Rowling and Britney) the next day he doesn't know if he will be adopted at all.
Current sources state that he's still at the orphanage awaiting adoption.
I do not know if Jolie owned a pet rat snake or a pet rattlesnake. There's been a number of changes back and forth on the page today, however, changing between the two. I hope people know that it is entirely possible she owns a rat snake as this is a real type of snake. Also, imdb's page, although notoriously unreliable, states that she has a pet rat snake, NOT a rattlesnake. A google search seemed to indicate a lot of sites think she has a rat snake but they may all be using this very article as their source. -- Yamla 17:56, 9 December 2005 (UTC)
Much of this article reads little better than "Hello" magazine and does not really demonstrate the impartiality demanded for it to be a good Wikipedia article. "renowned for her acting talent" is, I dare say, somewhat subjective Curphey 18:08, 12 December 2005 (UTC)
Is The National Enquirer really a reliable source? I'd like to have that confirmed before we label her bisexual. I've never heard that elsewhere. -- BDD 07:21, 29 December 2005 (UTC)
She and Christina Aguilera are probably the hottest bisexuals out there Batzarro 10:29, 11 January 2006 (UTC)
