Angelina Jolie vamped it up in a leggy LBD for Deadline Hollywood's seventh annual The Contenders event in West Hollywood on Saturday.The Oscar winner easily defied her 41 years in the black-knit turtleneck mini-dress and matching leather booties selected by stylist Jen Rade.The divorced mother-of-six also rocked a red pout and dark aviator sunglasses with her perky ponytail at the Directors Guild of America Theater.Angelina benevolently greeted her waiting Los Angeles-area fans outside the venue by signing autographs and posing for selfies.Jolie has been single since legally separating from third husband Brad Pitt a year ago after two years of marriage and three children - Shiloh, 11; and twins Vivienne & Knox, 9.If anyone can commiserate with the former Hollywood wild child it's Mudbound actress Mary J. Blige, who's still divorcing ex-manager Martin 'Kendu' Isaacs after 13 years of marriage.Joining the Special Envoy for the UN High Commissioner for Refugees was her longtime friend and co-screenwriter, Loung Ung wearing a sleeveless black dress. Angelina met the 47-year-old human rights activist 16 years ago and together they adapted her 2006 memoir First They Killed My Father into a Netflix film currently streaming.During the awards season Q&A, Jolie announced that her fifth directorial effort is Cambodia's official entry for next year's Academy Awards best foreign film category.'If I may, we Cambodians don't consider Angie a Western woman,' Loung told moderator Pete Hammond.'She's ours and she's been a citizen since 2005 - and before that, she was Cambodian in spirit.' Ung added: 'We clicked right away - she was really, really authentic. She really hates it when I gush about her in public, but she's a really cool person!' The By the Sea director's 16-year-old son Maddox (born Rath Vibol) received an executive-producing credit for the genocide drama and her 13-year-old son Pax shot still photography for it. 'Every Cambodian person in this film knew someone who was affected by the war and they came back to do this for their loved ones,' Angelina explained. 'During the war, artists were killed because of their influence. Having the artists come back to paint the sets and act the scenes was so inspiring. You're not sad about the story, but your proud of what this country can do creatively.' The Khmer-language drama currently holds a 89 percent critic approval rating on Rotten Tomatoes, a 72 percent approval rating on MetaCritic, and a 7.3/10 on IMDb. The Kung Fu Panda 3 actress will soon begin production on the sequel to the hit Disney villain origin story Maleficent. But first, Jolie executive-produced the Afghanistan-set animated feature The Breadwinner, which hits US theaters November 17 and UK theaters May 25.Nora Twomey's flick, based on the 2001 novel by Deborah Ellis, centers on a headstrong girl who disguises herself as a boy to provide for her family after her father gets arrested.

Angelina Jolie for president? Laugh now, but Trump did it, claims Jeffrey Archer

Author Jeffrey Archer has a few ideas when it comes to US politics – suggesting that actress Angelina Jolie would be a suitable candidate for the White House.Speaking on Good Morning Britain on Wednesday morning Archer – who was promoting his new book Tell Tale – admitted that he couldn’t have predicted Donald Trump’s rise to the presidency, and suggested that an actor could even assume the role of US leader.‘If I’d written [Donald] Trump two years ago they’d have said, ‘You’ve gone bonkers Jeffrey!’ he insisted.‘I’ve given up on political stories, Trump’s changed it… Trump’s better than I’ll ever be. My shock for you is we’ve moved from politicians to a talk show host.’ He went on: ‘We will now probably have an actor standing. I think Angelina Jolie might well stand.‘You laugh now. You’d have laughed three years ago if I said Donald Trump.’ Of course if Ange – or any other Hollywood star – were to run for the Presidency they wouldn’t be the first actor to do so, given that Ronald Reagan – who was president throughout the 1980s – was originally an actor before entering politics.President Angelina? Well given her philanthropic work we reckon she’d be a pretty good candidate for the job.

Angelina Jolie NOT Getting Married, Despite Report

Angelina Jolie is not secretly getting married, nor is she hiding the supposed nuptials from estranged husband Brad Pitt, despite a completely untrue tabloid cover story. The bogus report even includes a rundown of the actress’s alleged wedding plans, but it’s all made-up. Gossip Cop can exclusively set the record straight.According to In Touch, Jolie is on the verge of getting hitched for the fourth time. “She’s been serious with a wealthy 40-something British philanthropist and businessman since early this year,” a so-called “source” tells the magazine. “She’s kept him hidden. It’s very hush-hush. If it makes Brad unhappy when he finds out, she’s fine with that. It’s another way of sticking it to Brad.” The outlet’s questionable source further claims the actress has vindictively set out to make Pitt suffer. “She knows if he finds out after the fact it will hurt him, especially with the kids involved in the ceremony.” Speaking of the exes’ six children, the “insider” contends that they’re “purposely being left in the dark because they would accidentally tell Brad, and Angie doesn’t want him to know anything ahead of the marriage.” The seemingly phony source also maintains that Jolie has the ceremony, gown and location already mapped out. The actress will allegedly hold a small wedding in Cambodia, where she’ll wear “traditional Cambodian garb,” serve indigenous food, and involve her kids in various aspects of the celebration. “She’s marrying for love, but she also knows there’s the added benefit that it might make Brad unhappy,” adds the supposed insider, who sounds as if he or she is still in high school. “It’s been more than a year since she blindsided him with the divorce, and she’s still trying to hurt him.” However, this is all the same recycled narrative that In Touch already tried to push earlier this year. Gossip Cop corrected the unreliable outlet in April when it wrongly reported Jolie was getting married to a “wealthy British businessman.” The following month, the tabloid similarly claimed Jolie’s wedding would be held in Cambodia. Obviously, neither of those events ever occurred, and they still aren’t happening. Of course, if the tabloid really had scoop on Jolie getting married, wouldn’t it know the name of the groom? Additionally, the magazine doesn’t provide any details about how the actress and the alleged “British philanthropist” met. It’s also not explained in the publication how Jolie has become so serious with this mysterious “businessman,” and yet none of her six children has an inkling their mom is ready to wed.Among the other reasons the outlet’s cover story doesn’t add up is because Jolie herself recently confirmed she’s single. Regardless, Gossip Cop is exclusively assured by a source close to the actress that she’s not getting married, nor is she dating anyone at the moment. As for the assertion she’s trying to punish Pitt, that’s also simply not the case.
