Angelina Jolie – mb.com interview

Headline : Angelina Jolie: ‘I do like spiders… I have eaten some in my days in Cambodia’

If there’s one actress who is not afraid to try anything… even in food, it would be Angelina Jolie.

We recently interviewed the award-winning actress in Cancun, Mexico for her action-packed movie, “Salt,” where she portrays Evelyn Salt, a CIA officer who is being hunted by her peers. We asked her about her unusual acting partner in this movie – an eight-legged spider.

“I did not get to keep it,” she said. “But I do like spiders, bugs, and all that. I am not squeamish. I have eaten some in my days in Cambodia so I don’t have a problem (laughing). But I didn’t eat this one (laughter).”

No doubt one of the most beautiful actresses in Hollywood, the 35-year-old actress looked divine in the dresses that she wore in Cancun – from a gorgeous body-hugging white tube mini dress for the photo call, to a midnight blue silk Gerard Darel mini dress for the press conference, to a belted tube gray pantsuit for dinner.

In Cancun with some of her children – Maddox, Pax, Zahara and Shiloh – Angelina admitted that she partly did the Phillip Noyce-helmed movie for her daughters.

“It feels empowering to women to do it,” she disclosed of her female James Bond-like character. “It feels empowering to feel like you’re capable of saving someone or saving yourself and being physically and mentally strong. My daughters are growing up watching the Bond movies. It would have been nice for me to have a Salt when I was a little girl. So in many ways, I’m looking forward to them having this. It’s equally as good a film for boys to see.”

She added, “I have had the good fortune of being able to play many strong heroines. Those roles have been great. There are great women in history that are yet to be played – great heroic women.

There are great women stories but there are also great simple stories about motherhood and great heroic women who are mothers and not in some big action movie.”

“We met women who are in the CIA,” she continued. “We met tough, extraordinary women who look soft and sweet like someone’s mom and they are tougher than any of us in this room. They are extraordinarily strong women and there are women in the army right now and across the world fighting wars. There’s no question in me about a woman’s ability but it hasn’t been really on film in this way which was certainly an exciting challenge.”
