Blind Item #5

This A+ list mostly movie actress wants you to think she is perfect. Nope. She bribed her way on to several boards by giving them vast sums of money. Money that was supposed to go to charity. Oh, and also bought herself $1M in jewelry despite telling people the $1M went to charity.

Reese Witherspoon- or maybe "Angie" in light of latest events ..and political goals

Simon said...

I think Angie

Barbara RiceHand said...

Maybe Angie. Didn't I read they were having money trouble not so long ago. Makes since if she stole some charity money. Idk.

Jolie's renting a house for $92,000 a week, I doubt she's having money issues.

"Jolie’s renting a house for $92,000 a week, I doubt she’s having money issues."

Did you ever think that maybe that's WHY she's having money issues? They both spend as if they are starring in blockbusters every week.

+1 @ June

The NY Post article included some info on their charity's fuzzy accounting. No wonder she wants to get into politics and take a bigger role with the UN, she should fit right in!

Yep.

Guesser said...

A house rented that high, even a luxury place,may be hiding some funds for something else. Is that really for a week? Some of us live in houses that are worth less than that.

Hi Brad's PR people! *waves*

Zilla1 said...

Well, she is kiving there with six kids and a staff. She can't really rent a four bedroom splanch.

I read this NYP peice yesterday too. Sketchy, sketchy stuff.

Angelina does not wear jewelry. She is lent various pieces for premiers and special events by big-name jewelry companies. This is not her. My first choice for this would be The Goopster. But she isn't a bling person either. I think we are all way off on who this person is. She is not living in that Malibu home that is pictured in all the tabloids and on-line. It is a decoy. Trust me. I know these things. She may even be living in London at this moment. She knows she will never get privacy in NYC or LA. She may be crazy (not) but she's not stupid.

NUTHINDOIN said...

If it didn't say 'actress' I would think Betheny Frankenstein. This sounds more like Sharon Stone.

I always find the alleged worth of movie stars to be very suspicious. There were claims in the media that Brad's worth $450m and she's worth $250m and I ask... how? They spend money like it's water and they don't earn that much. And they're supposed to pay taxes (which with incomes like that are through the roof). Not to mention all the nannies, maids, chauffeurs, pilots, etc. They have bigger staffs than Bill Gates.

LauraOK said...

@Nuthin, don't know how you "know" things, but pretty sure those kids are still in the same area, but you may be right about the exact house. I think the one that's usually shown only has five BR's, and she has a lot of around the clock staff. But, custody hasn't yet been determined, so neither of them can take the children even out of the state without the other's permission at this point. Sincerely doubt Brad would go along with that after the "hell she's unleashed" (as he reportedly said). Have no idea about the jewelry...she doesn't appear to wear much, so you're probably right about that as well. I still think most of the article posted is spot-on, though. She didn't realize that people (finally) liked her BECAUSE of her relationship with the very likeable Pitt...

Zilla1 said...

That is subjective. There are people who have always liked her, regardless of who she's attached to..

Dina Lohan said...

Angie sweetheart, Linsey, Ali and I love you. Michael loves you. We all want you to come to Jersey with the kids. We will take Shilo to Michael's cousins hair salon. Give that little girl a proper Jersey do.

Toppermadison said...

Actually, with incomes like that, they pay less taxes. Everything (rent on this house even) is usually tax-deductible in one way or another, and most likely is being paid for by a separate business that can write it off as a business expense. You know, research for a movie role or real estate speculation or something like that. Plus, I'm sure they have excellent money managers, diversified portfolios, etc. It's very easy to get money and keep it, and to live a lavish lifestyle without directly paying a penny.

And $450M is a shitton of money. It's the equivalent of a THOUSAND $450,000 houses, one of said houses costs the same as 4.891 weeks in this rental. Technically, she could rent the place for 4,891 weeks, or 94 years. I think she'll be fine.

I ate my own head said...

Angie's main goal in life at this point is to get a title from the Queen. The only way to achieve that is to screw someone important or pay off lots of important people.

BETTY BOTOX said...

Dina! Have you lost ALL your marbles? You don't live in New Jersey, you live on Long Island!! Or did you finally lose the house to the bank and be forced to live in....Jersey? A fate worse than death!

BETTY BOTOX said...

Mr. Ate: Can we tone down the Angie hate for a few weeks? It IS a little too soon. Concentrate on someone else who actually deserves it.

Dina Lohan said...

Lady Angelina Brangina! I like the sound of that. Brad is going to run off with Zahara one day and this will all seem like old Lasagna. I thought I had moved into a mansion. In New Jersey with Lins. Silly me.

LauraOK said...

@Zilla, of course she has fans, and people will like different actors and actresses, for many reasons. But there is a way to quantify "likability" called a Q-rating or a Q-score. Jolie's went from a 13 (pretty low) when she won an Oscar for "Girl Interrupted" in 2000 to a 24 (above average) in 2008. Brad's Q-rating has been reported at 58 or so. I think being with Brad Pitt gave her some respectability in the industry. But you're right, there are certainly people who do like her! http://www.telegraph.co.uk/culture/film/10899833/The-remarkable-reinvention-of-Angelina-Jolie.html

Select said...

Beg pardon? Are you the comment monitor now? I liked Mr. Ate's post.

Rafe said...

That's exactly what someone in debt would do.

Rafe said...

They have 7 properties and aren't paying $450,000 for them. Fuck -- Angelina would pay more than than in just over FOUR WEEKS on that stupid rental. They paid $60 million for the castle thing in France. I think you're the one with a distorted sense of how far $450 million will go with that kind of stupid spending.

BOB'S YOUR UNCLE said...

Betty Botox is somehow 'connected' to those who know where the bodies are buried and who buried them, I think. That said, I thought I was the only person crazy enough to think that one day Brad IS going to fall in love with Zahara! Shades of Woody and Mia! Seems there are two nutso jobs out there who agree.

OKay said...

Well I didn't. So I guess now we're at a standoff, aren't we?
