Angelina hasn’t limited her career to acting. She became involved
in humanitarian work while filming in Cambodia. She is now a UN Goodwill
Ambassador, visiting refugee camps in poor countries. She donates large
sums of money to help the plight of underprivileged people. She has
effectively used her stardom to highlight world problems.
Unfortunately, Jolie’s personal life has come to overshadow her
other pursuits. The tabloids are obsessed with her relationships,
especially the current one with Brad Pitt. The couple is now referred to
not as Brad and Angelina but as “Brangelina”. The media seem more
caught up with what they eat and drink than the important humanitarian
work Angelina continues to do.
Helping other people is what truly motivates Angelina. In 2001,
she said: “We cannot close ourselves off…and ignore the fact that
millions of people are out there suffering.” In addition to acting
awards, she has received wide recognition for her humanitarian work. She
became the first winner of the UN’s Citizen of the World Award. It
seems likely more accolades will follow.
