PICTURE EXCLUSIVE: Angelina Jolie-Pitt adds to her tattoo collection as she reveals symbolic new ink on her forearm at the Cambodia Film Festival

Angelina Jolie-Pitt has revealed a brand new tattoo on her forearm.

The 40-year-old actress and director stepped out at the Cambodia Film Festival in Phnom Penh last weekend with the ink clearly visible on the inside of her left arm, a new addition to her ever-growing collection of body art.

Complete with a thin, intricate outline in black ink it is thought the tattoo is an homage to the thousands who lost their lives during the country's Khmer Rouge reign, as she is currently in the country working on a film about the atrocities.

New ink: Angelina Jolie-Pitt revealed a brand new tattoo on the inside of her left forearm as she stepped out at the Cambodia International Film Festival in Phnom Penh last weekend

The ink appears to be in the style of the Southeast Asian sak yant style of tattooing, which is often constructed with lines of script, geometric patterns and animal shapes.

The style is linked to Buddhist beliefs and those who wear sak yant often believe their tattoos genuinely lend them magical powers, bringing good luck or protection from evil spirits.

Angelina already has a large collection of tattoos, including the phrase 'Know your rights' written in gothic print across her nape, the word 'Determination' in Arabic script inside her right forearm and a large Latin cross tattoo on her hip.



Meaningful: The 40-year-old's latest tattoo is thought to be designed in the sak yant style, which originates from Southeast Asia



Wearing it with pride: The actress - who is currently in Cambodia to direct a film about the Khmer Rouge atrocities - is thought to have the ink to remember those who lost their lives

She also has ancient Khmer script - the language of Cambodia - etched onto her back, the lines of text written down her left shoulder blade in Bangkok, Thailand in 2003.

The five vertical rows, which are said to 'ward off bad luck', translate as: 'May your enemies run far away from you. If you acquire riches, may they remain yours always.

'Your beauty will be that of Apsara. Wherever you may go, many will attend, serve and protect you, surrounding you on all sides.'



Big tattoo fan: Angelina already has at least a dozen tattoos on her body, her most famous being the lines of ancient Khmer script running in vertical lines down her left shoulder blade

The Academy Award-winning actress has previously spoken out about how her six children are keen to get their own inkings, as both she and her husband Brad Pitt have a large collection between them.

The star - who also has a large tattoo of a tiger on her lower back - told Radio Times magazine last year that she does not want her offspring to follow them into the movie business, but that she is loathed to stop them from getting tattoos of their own.

'My kids rebelling would be if they all became brain surgeons. They're already asking me about tattoos. How do I say "No"?,' she said.



Spiritual: The sak yant style is often constructed with lines of script, geometric patterns and animal shapes

'It's especially hard for dads and girls,' she said. 'For some reason men get a little more sensitive when the daughter gets a tattoo. And Brad thinks the girls can do no wrong. He's mush in their hands!'

Angelina and Brad are parents to six children: seven-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox, Shiloh, nine, Zahara, 10, Pax, 12 and Maddox, 14.

And, in a sweet tribute to her large brood - the eldest three of whom were adopted from various countries - she has each of the coordinates of their places of birth (Cambodia, Vietnam, Ethiopia, France and Namibia) etched onto her left arm.



Adding to the collection: The new tattoo sits just above other inkings on her left forearm, including the number 13 written in Roman numerals

Angelina is currently in Cambodia to direct a movie version of the harrowing Khmer Rouge memoir, First They Killed My Father.

Angelina is bringing human rights activist Loung Ung's 2000 memoir of the same name to life with her screen adaptation, which she has also co-written.

First They Killed My Father tells the harrowing tale of Ung's life through the Khmer Rouge years, under the reign of dictator Pol Pot, and her escape from the 'killing fields' in the 1970s.

Sweet tribute: The actress has given a nod to her children's birth countries of Cambodia, Vietnam, Ethiopia, France and Namibia

The film will also star Angelina's son Maddox, who hails from Cambodia: he'll also help out on the production side of things.

The Unbroken director first expressed an interest in adapting the book after reading it over a decade ago.

'I was deeply affected by Loung's book,' she said previously. 'It deepened forever my understanding of how children experience war and are affected by the emotional memory of it. And it helped me draw closer still to the people of Cambodia, my son's homeland.'

'Films like this are hard to watch but important to see,' she continued of the movie, which is set for release in late 2016.



Hard to miss: The star also has a large tattoo of a tiger on her lower back, which often peeks out from under her designer gowns



Impressive: Angelina flew to Thailand in 2004 to get the tattoo of a tiger which was inked by Sompong Kanphai

'They are also hard to get made. Netflix is making this possible, and I am looking forward to working with them and excited that the film will reach so many people.'

Ung has said of the adaptation, which will be produced by Cambodian film-maker Rithy Panh: 'Angelina and I met in 2001 in Cambodia, and immediately, I trusted Angelina's heart.

'Through the years, we have become close friends, and my admiration for her as a woman, a mother, a film-maker and a humanitarian has only grown. It is with great honour that I entrust my family's story to Angelina to adapt into a film.'



Music fan: The star also has Know Your Rights in bold gothic print etched on her a back, a tribute to The Clash song



Special meaning: The tattoo on her left underarm is the Roman number 13, which is thought to represent Angie's lack of belief in superstitions. Later she had V MCMXL added to the tattoo. 13 May 1940 is the date when Winston Churchill gave his famous 'I have nothing to offer but blood, toil, tears and sweat' speech

12 Juicy Jolie Revelations

A new biography of the star has hit bookstores and The Daily Beast gives it a quick read for biographer Andrew Morton’s take on her wild teen years, Mick Jagger’s infatuation with her, and other revelations from this explosive bio.

 

There is no more famous or enigmatic actress alive today. And her latest biographer, Andrew Morton, knows what it takes to be world famous after writing about the lives of Princess Diana and Tom Cruise, among others. Morton set his sights on Jolie and has produced this just-released, unauthorized 313-page biography. Of course, Angie’s lived a very public life so while Morton’s bio isn’t full of unknown details, there are more than a few revelations to keep you flipping the pages. Here’s our take on a few of the most intriguing insights of the book.

View Our Gallery of Angelina Through the Years 

What’s in a Name? 

Angelina Jolie was almost born Shiloh Baptist Voight. The inspiration for the name was a truck her father, Jon Voight, and her mother, Marcheline Bertrand, were stuck behind while taking a drive through the woods. (Marche, as Marcheline was known, shot it down, thinking it was “too Hebrew.”) It’s a charmingly insignificant story, considering the symbolic weight names carry for the rest of the biography. Marche gave Angelina the middle name of Jolie and James, her son, the middle name of Haven, thinking they would drop their surnames to go into show business. Ironically, “Voight” probably would have opened doors for Angelina, but Morton says she dropped it in order to succeed on her own merits, a plan her mother foiled by secretly calling agents to tell them Angelina was the daughter of Jon Voight. Later, during a nadir in Angelina’s relationship with her father, she had “Voight” legally struck from her name. But then after years of freezing out her father, she named her daughter Shiloh.

Growing Pains 

Angelina had a troubled childhood, the result of growing up with an estranged and famous father and a mother who, despite her laissez-faire parenting style, used her daughter as a vehicle through which to live out her own dreams of stardom. For the first year or so of Jolie’s life, she was kept in a white office five floors above her mother's apartment and tended by a rotation of babysitters (her mother finding her too similar-looking to her just-run-off husband), and then at 14 she was given the run of the master bedroom along with her live-in boyfriend. The idea was that her mother could keep a better eye on the couple that way. As Morton says, this didn't quite work out: "While she thought her liberal behavior meant that she would be able to keep an eye on them, the proximity of the master bedroom to the street made it easy for them to sneak out at night, which they did regularly." (76)

Girl, Interrupted… And Interrupted 

Her unorthodox family situation took a psychological toll, as Morton points out. He sets a bevy of psychoanalysts speculating on the psychic damage, none of whom have ever analyzed Jolie or her family. Their diagnosis? That "Angelina Jolie will have experienced profound abandonment, anxiety, and may have experienced depression" (36). To these issues, they attribute most of her behavior, like suicidal thoughts, obsessive crushes, drug use, desire to act, bisexuality, exhibitionism, and kinky proclivities. Or was her astrological sign to blame? Morton contents that her being a Gemini explains a lot—"As a Gemini, the child was destined to have a dual personality, the forces of good and evil, darkness and light, male and female, wrestling with her psyche" (30)—with the help at one point of Princess Di's astrologer (188). Whatever her affliction, she started dressing in black and wearing studded dog collars, which got her mocked in school, and for a time, she aspired to be a funeral director. Less innocuously, Morton claims she started doing some pretty heavy drugs, including coke and heroin.

Sling Blade 

Part of her Goth phase involved acquiring an impressive array of swords. "She enjoyed not only their cold, unforgiving beauty and the intriguing stories they suggested, but also the thrill of holding, spinning, and throwing them. Knives, often decorated with ornate symbolism, stained with honor and battle, excited and inspired the collector in her." (63) This, too, one of Morton's army of psychoanalysts attributes to her "the emptiness where the connection to the self is missing." At 14, she used one of these knives to cut and be cut by her live-in boyfriend, and later to cut herself. In 1991, when she was busy fleshing out her theatrical résumé, she channeled her love of blades into the healthier hobby of fencing.

Saved by Rock 'n' Roll 

Later, she contemplated suicide, first by pills, then, more dramatically, by taking a hit out on herself. But, in true Hollywood fashion, the would-be hitman talked her out of it. "Her suicidal thoughts came about because she has no sense of self. She had internalized all that abandonment as a baby," one of Morton's shrinks says (74). Morton says she came out of her downward spiral when she learned to play the drums. "I sincerely believe the drums helped save her life," says Joey Covington, her drum teacher and the former drummer of Jefferson Airplane. Early on, when Covington was trying to get Jolie to really hit it, he asked her to write the names of people she hated on gaffer tape and stick them to the drumheads. Among those named? Her father and her agent.

No Satisfaction 

Jolie, apparently, broke Mick Jagger’s heart. At her mother's behest (she was a fan), Angelina agreed to dance as a stripper in a Rolling Stones video. Jagger was smitten, and, still married to Jerry Hall and with a fourth kid on the way, pursued her doggedly. He left long, pleading, and, tortured by her unresponsiveness, increasingly self-abasing messages on her answering machine. Only it turns out that Angelina had given Jagger her mother's number, who played the messages for her friends. "Here was Mick Jagger virtually sobbing down the phone" (133). Meanwhile, Angelina's mother was encouraging her daughter to formalize her divorce from her first husband, Jonny Lee Miller of Trainspotting, and consulting astrologers on the likelihood of her marrying Jagger. Finally, just as Jolie's relationship with Billy Bob Thornton was beginning, Jagger succeeded in publicly making out with Jolie at Toronto’s Skydome during a Stones concert, in the middle of which he called her backstage and presented her with a cashmere sweater (146).

Oh, Billy Bob 

No surprise here but Billy Bob Thornton comes off as a bit of an odd duck. "His genuine talent often overshadowed by ribald discussions of his many idiosyncrasies, including an obsessive-compulsive disorder that left him with a morbid fear of flying and a hatred of harpsichords, silverware, and antiques, particularly French furniture" (143). When he moved in with Laura Dern, he planted a Confederate flag in the bedroom and tossed out all her French furniture and silverware. No word on the harpsichords. Also, he apparently eats only orange-colored foods (188).

Nevertheless, it was love at first sight: "It was not so much a stairway to heaven as an elevator ride to ecstasy. He told her he was going to buy a pair of pants. She was heading for the hotel lobby. As they stood in the elevator, both felt a shock of attraction....The word "pants" conjuring up all kind of thoughts in her head, Angie sat on a wall by their hotel and tried not to faint or swallow her cigarette. Irresistible object meeting improbable subject" (140). Two years after their elevator ride, the pair takes a wild roadtrip to Vegas and Little Rock before heading to Nashville, where Billy Bob disappeared into the recording studio, sending Angelina into a nervous breakdown.

[David Lynchian postscript: Laura Dern, who was Thornton's fiancée until she read in the tabloids that he'd married Angelina, said she was visited in a Sunset Boulevard Tower Records by an angel who told her Ben Harper was her soul mate. "'Call him, call him,' the angel implored, before fading away" (186). She did, or called her publicist, who called his publicist, and she and Harper, who had two kids with his now-former-wife, Joanna, were wed in 2000.]

Brotherly Love 

When Jolie won the Oscar for Best Supporting Actress for Girl, Interrupted, Angelina embraced her brother and kissed him on the mouth. Later, they supposedly kissed at the Vanity Fair afterparty. Morton depicts Angelina's relationship with her brother, James, at the time an aspiring director, as close but on-again-off-again. She starred in his student films when the two were starting out, and he helped her through a rough patch with heroin when she rejected the intervention of their father. She didn't approve of his girlfriends, though Morton quotes her as saying, tongue in cheek, that "if Tom Cruise and my brother came out as a couple, I think the public would embrace them" (172). Regarding the kiss, Morton defers to the tabloids and, of course, the shrinks. It's described by turns as the result of incestuous desire, a craven play for attention, a symptom of her abandonment as a child and her mother's preference for her brother, and, by an anonymous "friend," as "the kiss of a vampire...She drained the blood out of any career James had" (174).

Candid Camera? 

Two anecdotes testify to Angelina Jolie’s team’s extreme canniness in handling paparazzi. Shortly after Brad Pitt’s break with Jennifer Aniston became public, he went to Ethiopia to give Diane Sawyer a tour of Bono’s One charity (he’d gotten into charity work while filming Mr. & Mrs. Smith with Jolie). After the interview, he hopped a private jet to Diani Beach on the Kenyan coast, where he rendezvoused with Jolie and her adopted son, Maddox. It was supposed to be a secret escape from media attention, but Diani Beach is a popular European vacation spot and easily accessible to paparazzi. Sure enough, a paparazzo received a call from what Morton calls “a suspiciously well-informed caller” (256) directing him to a specific beach at a certain time, where he shot long-range photos of Pitt and Jolie strolling chastely with Maddox. It kept with the duo’s official line, that they were only friends, while keeping speculation alive that they might be something more. The photos sold for $1 million. As Morton points out, the situation was strikingly similar to a story The New York Times broke following Jolie’s separation from Billy Bob Thornton, in which her publicist tipped off photographers so they could shoot “candid” photographs of her playing alone in the park with her son, casting her in the sympathetic role of single mother.

African Queen 

When Angelina and Brad truly wanted to stay out of the public eye, they didn’t fool around. In the late stage of pregnancy, she and Brad flew to Namibia, where they took shelter in essentially a military compound. They rented an entire seaside resort, which they covered in green mesh netting to prevent long-range photography. They got the Namibian government to establish a “no fly” zone around the hotel. They surrounded the hotel with armed guards, including several former South African soldiers, “who cordoned off roads, made nighttime searches of houses, and stopped suspect vehicles” (265). One photographer was maced and others were beaten up. When Angelina left for the hospital to deliver her baby by Cesarean section, a decoy convoy was sent out to lure away the press surrounding the compound. Then they circumvented the photographers who’d been camped out for months by taking a picture of their child themselves and selling it to several media outlets for an estimated total of $11 million, which went to the Jolie-Pitt Foundation (267).

Jolie’s Entourage 

Between her acting jobs and work as U.N. Goodwill Ambassador, Jolie rarely stays in one place for more than a week, yet she travels with a huge staff, mostly because of her six children, five of whom joined her family in only three years. While the family was staying in France, Morton lists “nannies from Vietnam, the Congo, and the U.S.; four nurses; a doctor on permanent call; two personal assistants; a cook; a maid; six French former army guards” (289).

EXCLUSIVE: 'Colombiana' Star Zoe Saldana Finds Angelina Jolie Comparisons 'Scary'

Zoe Saldana: Alien Ass Kicker

Zoe Saldana's sexy 'Details' shoot, plus more Hollywood space girls.

Zoe Saldana cements her status as the “it” butt-kicking girl in Hollywood playing a revenge-seeking assassin in the new action flick “Colombiana.” Saldana has now shown us her not-to-be-messed-with moves multiple times in movies like “Avatar” and “Star Trek.” 

In fact, Saldana’s badass beauty roles have many critics positioning her as the “new Angelina Jolie,” a comparison that makes her slightly uncomfortable.

“If I think about it in that fashion than yes (it’s scary,) I wouldn’t want to think about it in that way,” Saldana told FOX411’s Pop Tarts column at the “Colombiana” premiere in Los Angeles this week. “But I have been inspired by amazing actresses that have taken amazing risks and opened amazing doors, and I am a product of that and I am honored to be included in a group of women that have defied their own gravity. Besides playing amazing character roles they also have an amazing agility to do action.”

Like Jolie, Saldana opts to do her own stunts wherever possible, even if it means leaving the set a little black and blue.

“Thank God no permanent injuries, but I was definitely very, very sore. It’s always a lot of work and its exhausting while you’re doing it and your training for it,” she said. “But once you see it on the silver screen it’s such an amazing reward and only because you are proud of what you do but also because you’re representing all the professionals that that invested their time and their work to train you. To know that they are proud makes me feel very, very good.”

And while most men would most likely sacrifice a lot for the opportunity to get up-close-and-personal with the sexy action star, “Colombiana” co-star Michael Vartan seemed less-than-impressed with their intimate moments.

“Zoe never complained about the fight stuff or the action stuff. She complained about my fake kissing,” Vartan told us. “Love scenes on movie sets are never quite as romantic as they seem to be. It’s very hard to concentrate and pretend to be making love to someone who you’ve got a boom operator’s microphone up your rear end so it’s not really what it’s cracked up to be, so you do what you can.”

Image Credit: Janet Mayer/PR Photos; Albert L. Ortega/PR PhotosAccording to The Hollywood Reporter, Zoe Saldana is in negotiations to star as an assassin in Colombiana. Of course, as a reporter in this industry, the first thing that crosses my mind when I think of the word “assassin” is Angelina Jolie. (It’s about as natural as hearing the words “chin dreads” and automatically thinking of Brad Pitt.) And I’m betting I’m not alone. After all, Jolie’s famously played an assassin in both Wanted and Mr. and Mrs. Smith, and will play a sleeper agent – which is basically an assassin, right? – in the upcoming Salt. So upon hearing this latest piece of casting news, I began to wonder whether Saldana is poised to follow in Jolie’s career footsteps.

It’s not totally unthinkable, even if it’s unlikely that Saldana would ever become as high-profile a tabloid subject as Jolie. Besides the fact that Saldana, like Jolie, has legs for days – and is well on her way to becoming a red carpet star – the two actresses have already boasted similar resumés. They both have starred in geeky action franchises. (Jolie in Tomb Raider and Saldana in Star Trek and Avatar.) They both have played romantic leads (Jolie in Pushing Tin and Life or Something Like It and Saldana in Premium and Guess Who), yet don’t exactly fit into the rom-com actress mold. (Could you see either being forced to pratfall?) They both have worked with high-profile directors. (Jolie with Clint Eastwood in The Changeling; Saldana with Steven Spielberg in The Terminal.) And they have both even toyed with campy fun. (Jolie in Gone in Sixty Seconds, Saldana in Center Stageand Crossroads.) And, thanks to The Losers, we already know Saldana looks just as fabulous with a gun as Jolie.

With Saldana’s star threatening to beam even brighter, what with Star Trek 2 and the Avatar sequel, I don’t think I’m that far off with my comparison. Do you agree with me, PopWatchers? And hope that Saldana reaches Jolie’s star wattage?

Angelina Jolie To Direct An Unflinching Portrayal Of War Through The Eyes Of A Child

Angelina Jolie Pitt will direct an adaptation of First They Killed My Father: A Daughter of Cambodia Remembers, a harrowing and poignant memoir from Cambodian author and human rights activist Loung Ung about surviving the deadly Khmer Rouge regime.

Jolie Pitt will direct and produce the Netflix Original Film from a script she co-adapted with Ung. Acclaimed Cambodian director and producer Rithy Panh, director of the Oscar-nominated Best Foreign Language film The Missing Picture, will also be a producer.

The film will be made available to members of the world’s leading Internet TV network in late 2016 and will be submitted to major international festivals.

Loung Ung was five years old when the Khmer Rouge assumed power over Cambodia in 1975 and began a four-year reign of terror and genocide in which nearly two million Cambodians died. Forced from her family’s home in Phnom Penh, Ung was trained as a child soldier in a work camp for orphans while her six siblings were sent to labor camps. Ung survived and wrote First They Killed My Father: A Daughter of Cambodia Remembers, which was first published in 2000. Jolie Pitt read the book and contacted Ung over a decade ago and they became close friends. Together they adapted the book into a screenplay.

“I was deeply affected by Loung’s book,” commented Jolie Pitt. “It deepened forever my understanding of how children experience war and are affected by the emotional memory of it. And it helped me draw closer still to the people of Cambodia, my son’s homeland.” She added, “It is a dream come true to be able to adapt this book for the screen, and I’m honored to work alongside Loung and filmmaker Rithy Panh.” Jolie Pitt’s Cambodian-born son, Maddox, will also be involved in the production of the film.

Netflix’s global reach was a major factor in Jolie Pitt’s desire to partner with the streaming service. “Films like this are hard to watch but important to see,” said Jolie Pitt. “They are also hard to get made. Netflix is making this possible, and I am looking forward to working with them and excited that the film will reach so many people.” The film will be released in both Khmer and English.

“We are proud to be working with Angelina Jolie in bringing this emotionally powerful and ultimately uplifting story exclusively to Netflix members around the world,” said Netflix Chief Content Officer Ted Sarandos. “Loung Ung’s incredible journey is a testament to the human spirit and its ability to transcend even the toughest circumstances.”

“Angelina and I met in 2001 in Cambodia, and immediately, I trusted Angelina’s heart,” commented author Loung Ung. “Through the years, we have become close friends, and my admiration for Angelina as a woman, a mother, a filmmaker, and a humanitarian has only grown. It is with great honor that I entrust my family’s story to Angelina to adapt into a film.”

Loung Ung is currently writing her first novel, and is a co-owner of Market Garden Brewery in Cleveland, Ohio. Since 1995, Loung has made over 30 trips back to Cambodia and has devoted herself to helping her native land heal from the traumas of war. Loung’s other works include Lucky Child and Lulu in the Sky. She was also a contributing writer on the groundbreaking film, Girl Rising.

First They Killed My Father will begin production later this year in Cambodia and will precede Jolie Pitt’s filming of Africa which focuses on paleo-anthropologist Dr. Richard Leakey’s decades-long fight to save Africa from the illegal wildlife trade. Africa was postponed to provide additional time to get the script finalized and all production elements lined up properly to provide for the ambitious scope of the film. Jolie Pitt remains committed to making the film and continues her strong support of Dr. Leakey, the people of Kenya and ending wildlife crime and the illegal wildlife trade.

Jolie Pitt is currently in post-production on By The Sea, an adult drama written and directed by Jolie Pitt, starring Jolie Pitt and Brad Pitt, that will be released by Universal this year. Jolie Pitt recently directed Universal’s Unbroken, based on the life of Olympian and World War II POW survivor Louis Zamperini. Jolie Pitt made her feature directorial debut with In the Land of Blood and Honey.

Brad Pitt’s Black Eye: From Angelina Jolie? Did He Cheat?

SplashNews

Brad Pitt was photographed sporting a NASTY black eye on April 25, and while he claims the bruising is just the result of a clumsy fall, a new report about his marriage problems has sparked speculation that Angelina Jolie may have had something to do with it. Ouch!

Is there trouble in paradise between Brad Pitt, 51, and Angelina Jolie? Angie is reportedly growing furious with her husband’s behavior, which includes an alleged marijuana-filled, naked night in a hot tub with other women while she was nowhere in sight! But could the actress possibly be behind that black eye Brad’s recently been sporting?!

Brad Pitt Black Eye From Angelina Jolie?: Did He Cheat?

The night in question actually occurred last summer, just weeks before the couple’s Aug. 23 wedding, InTouch reports. Throughout the evening, Brad reportedly got completely naked with a woman in his hot tub!

Do you think Brad would cheat?

DefinitelyNope

“Brad casually told Angelina he was naked and shared joins with some friends in the hot tub, as if it was no big deal,” the mag’s source claims. “Angie couldn’t believe her ears. She still has a lot of wild child in her, but she’s very territorial and jealous when it comes to Brad and other women.”

Even though this night took place over a year ago, it caused the 39-year-old to question her trust in her man, and he’s exhibited more behavior since, like smoking cigarettes and, reportedly, marijuana, that’s continued to irritate Angie. “She truly believed Brad when he swore to her more than a year ago that his days of getting stoned were long behind him,” the insider says.

Things have taken a turn for the worst over the last few weeks. On April 19, Brad was caught smoking a cigarette on-set in New Orleans, and one day later, Angie was photographed looking stressed while visiting him.

Brad’s bruised face sighting came just five days later, and while he claims it was just from tripping while running up the stairs, these new relationship revelations have led to speculation that there’s more to the story.

Could Brad really have been cheating, causing Angie to go berserk!? We seriously hope not!

Angelin Jolie Removes Ovaries After Cancer Scare: “I Will Not Be Able To Have More Children”

Despite all this drama throughout the last year, Angie and Brad did ban together for a very important purpose in January — she had her ovaries and Fallopian tubes removed after a blood test showed early signs of cancer.

The decision was, of course, an emotional one, but, as Angie explained in an op-ed for the New York Times, “I feel feminine and grounded in the choices I am making for myself and my family. I know my children will never have to say, ‘Mom died of ovarian cancer.'”

She also added that she won’t be able to have any more biological children because of the procedure, as she’s not in menopause. “But I feel at east with whatever will come, not because I am strong, but because this is a part of life,” she assured readers. “It is nothing to be feared.”

Brad stood by Angie’s side throughout the entire process, and InTouch reports that it strengthened their relationship — until he started acting up again this Spring.

We truly hope everything works out between Brad and Angie and that that nasty bruising was just the result of a fluke fall!

HollywoodLifers, do you think Angie could’ve had something to do with Brad’s black eye? Do you believe he may have cheated?
