My inspiration for this post came from my dear, longtime blogging friend, Debbie @ Musings by an ND Domer's Mom, who is not only a gifted...
Be honest.
Have you ever looked at a member of the opposite sex and said to yourself, “Gee…if I were a man/woman, I would wanna look just like that?
I have.
I adore women, therefore have imaged myself if I were a woman, to look like a particular woman.
But even more so, to emulate a particular woman out of admiration.
And that woman for me, would be Angelina Jolie.
Not only do I think Angelina is a stunning-looking lady, but she’s also, smart, a generous humanitarian, outspoken, down to earth, sexy, and a damn good actress. She’s also not afraid to talk about her dark side, which is something I truly admire.
There is something about her ‘whole package’ that I really like.
I first saw her in the HBO movie, Gia, where she portrayed the tragic real-life story of supermodel, Gia Carangi. If you’ve never seen the film, please rent it. It’s a tragedy, yes, but also a fascinating and enlightening journey of a life short-lived. And it’s beautifully acted.
One of things I admire about Miss Jolie, is that she’s not afraid to branch out from a comfort zone of portraying only ‘beauty queen’ characters. She has proven herself a consummate actress, by playing diverse roles.
She’s very much like her real-life partner, Brad Pitt (another stunning creature), who also stretches his acting muscles; portraying a wide variety of characters.
It’s easy when you’ve been graced with good looks in Hollywood, to allow the industry to place you in roles that are comfortable and predictably sellable. Yet, it takes a lot of guts to say, “No….I’m more talented than just what I look like.”
You’re probably all wondering, “Why the hell is Ron suddenly talking about Angelina Jolie?”
Well, earlier this week I saw the movie, The Tourist, which not only starred Angelina, but also another one of my favorites, Johnny Depp.
I know this film got very mixed reviews, but I freakin’ LOVED it!
It’s an ingenious blend of mystery, action, romance, and a touch of old-time charming comedy. I really enjoy a movie that takes you on a mysterious journey, and then slaps you with an unsuspected ending. This movie does that. Also, it was shot in Venice, Italy, so the visual backdrop is faaaaabulous!
I don’t think Angelina Jolie ever looked more beautiful in a film, than The Tourist.
Between her acting, her costumes, hair and makeup….she absolutely GLOWED.
She literally takes your breath away.
I sat there, saying to my TV screen out loud….“Damn girl, you’re the BOMB! And if I were ever a woman, I would wanna look just like YOU!”

Wishing you a stunning weekend everyone!
