"They all went in, they took it very seriously and then in the car, they were like, 'that's what you do? It's so easy.'" Call it a new spin on take your kid to work day. In a recent appearance on Good Morning Britain, Angelina Jolie shared that four members of the Jolie-Pitt clan appear in their mother's latest film, Kung Fu Panda 3. Pax, 12, Zahara, 11, Shiloh, 9, and Knox, 7, all voice minor characters in the animated film. After a day at work with their mom, they joked that her job is "so easy" after seeing her in action: "I think it backfired a little because I did say, 'okay you're going to come to mommy's work,'" said Jolie. "They see me on set every day doing things and directing but this was a moment of seeing me act—you're going to do some lines, you're going to act. They all went in, they took it very seriously and then in the car, they were like, 'that's what you do? It's so easy.'" The star admitted the kids were initially shy but ended up "having a lot of fun with it." Jolie also discussed how she and husband Brad Pitt handle fan encounters when their children are present: "We only explain it so they are not afraid when they see people coming at you with a camera because it can feel aggressive," she said. "We always say it's just because people are interested in films, and because of films, people take pictures."But the Jolie-Pitt kids are no stranger to the family business. Vivienne, 7, played baby Aurora in Maleficent (Jolie played the title character), while Zahara and Pax , 12, had minor walk-on roles. Maddox, 14, is also helping his mother with pre-production for her next project, an adaptation of Loung Ung's First They Killed My Father: A Daughter of Cambodia Remembers.

Melissa McCarthy has spoken about the women who mean the most to her.Melissa McCarthy is in awe of the way Angelina Jolie refused to let her "pampered life" impact her.Angelina raises six children with her husband Brad Pitt, is a movie director as well as an actress and has also done a lot of work for women's rights. This is why Melissa finds her so impressive, as many others in her position would sit back and relax in their mansions."Here's someone who could lead a very pampered life, yet has chosen to focus on children and people who don't have a voice," Melissa told Britain's Glamour magazine. "She doesn't have to do it; she just chooses to live the right way."There are a number of women who the actress looks up to, with talk show host Ellen DeGeneres another one. Ellen is married to Portia De Rossi and Melissa is impressed with how open she's been about her love life."When she chose to come out on her sitcom, it damaged her career to the point that she didn't think she would get it back," she recalled. "But she did, and she paved the way for women to be able to say, 'This is who I am, and I don't have to act any other way.'"Singer Bjork is another person the actress loves, so much so that she was nicknamed Sugarcube when she was younger - in honour of the Icelandic singer's old band - because she looked and dressed like her.Perhaps Melissa's biggest source of inspiration is her mother Sandy though."When I told her the crazy things I wanted to do, Sandy looked at me and said, 'Why wouldn't' you?'" she recalled. "I've asked her, 'Why in the world didn't you tell me to, like, try something else?' She goes, 'You wanted to do it, so I just told you to do it.' I got hit with the lucky stick, because that's the person who encouraged me."

She rendezvoused with husband Brad Pitt who is off filming in London as she was spotted arriving at Heathrow Airport on Wednesday.But it seemed to be a short reunion for the family as Angelina Jolie and her children were spotted arriving at LAX Airport in Los Angeles on Wednesday evening.The 40-year-old star was hand-in-hand with Pax, 12, Zahara, 11 and nine-year-old Shiloh shortly after touching down at the international travel hub.Her 52-year-old husband has been busy filming the sequel for World War Z in the capital city of England.Angelina has been busy herself as she recently wrapped filming her upcoming Netflix movie, First They Killed My Father, in Cambodia.The Maleficent star looked as chic as ever as she sported a long black jacket over a clinging black midi dress and knee-high leather boots.She wore her signature raven-coloured tresses down flowing over her shoulder as she had natural, complimentary make-up on her face topped off with a swipe of shiny pink lip.Angelina accessorised the look with a pair of large, black aviator shades and a brown leather Louis Vuitton bag draped over her shoulders.Meanwhile, it was recently reported that Angelina has secretly added two large new tattoos to her collection - and now her entire back is covered in inkings by the same Thai tattoo master.Ajarn Noo Kanpai - the same guru who inked her left shoulder blade in 2003 and the tiger on her lower back in 2004 - carried out the work last month.He was flown from his base near Bangkok to Siem Reap in Cambodia where Angelina is directing First They Killed My Father to complete her 11-year series of inkings.
Angelina's husband Brad Pitt was also tattooed on his left side in the same session, and now has a Buddhist symbol inking on his stomach.The same ink was believed to have been used by Ajarn Noo for the work, symbolically binding husband and wife together.Buddhists believe the mystical tattoos have powers of strength and healing, with the one applied to her right shoulder designed to offer protection for mother-of-six Angelina's family.A source said: 'The tattoos are composed of grids with pyramids at the top, which are full of ancient Buddhist symbols and prayers. They help to give the wearer protection and health.'Angelina is a very spiritual person and has long believed her tattoos are more than just designs on her body – that they actually hold some meaning, power and influence over her.'

Ready to wrap! Angelina Jolie is in her element as she jokes with crew while finishing up work on her documentary in Cambodia .She may be a serious artist, but that doesn't mean the work environment has to be.And while wrapping up the filming of her latest movie in Cambodia the 40-year-old could be seen looking to be in good spirits as she joked with her cast and crew.The director seems to have formed a tight-knit bond with her crew after three months of filming her Khmer Rouge epic First They Killed My Father.The documentary - adapted from Cambodian author and human rights activist Loung Ung’s 2000 memoir - is moving into its final stages. Angelina, who sported a fitted, white, spaghetti strap dress with a flowing skirt, proudly displayed her extensive new back tattoos as she shared jokes and issued orders for filming a refugee camp scene at the foot of the Kulen Mountain in the Siem Reap province.The Oscar winner also shielded herself from the sun with a tan, wide-brimmed hat, as she could be seen gesturing while giving orders to the crew.And the star was later spotted donning a flowing, strapless white sundress as she enjoyed a day poolside as the movie came closer to wrapping.The movie features a largely Cambodian cast and crew, but Angelina has also hired a team of trusted British and American movie-makers as producers, camera operators, and in other high up positions, to ensure the movie is completed to the highest standard.'Angelina takes her movie-making very seriously,' an on-set insider said, adding: 'Some of it has been tough, make no mistake.' 'Cambodia is a third world country, and Angelina's been dealing with a largely Khmer cast and crew - things don't run as smoothly as on a huge Hollywood production.' 'There was a hiccup around December where some of the crew weren't working out and were subsequently sent home, but they were replaced and the team have been getting on incredibly well since,' the source added.
Angelina has also been getting some extra help on set in the form of her sons Maddox, 14, and Pax, 12, who have been on-hand during the shoot to help out with various production tasks, while Pax has also been taking photos to document the movie-making process. Angelina has also been immersing herself in the local Buddhist culture while in Cambodia, visiting temples and accompanying her six children – who also include Zahara, 11, Shiloh, nine, and seven-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne – as they learn about the culture and customs of their new country.In another show of her belief in the mysticism of South East Asia, Angelina's latest artworks, by her regular tattoo artist Ajarn Noo Kampai, whom she flew in from Bangkok to tattoo her, were on display at the set.Angelina has had a number of ancient Buddhist symbols and mantras on her back in a five-row form and a pyramid, symbols to give her power and help protect her family, according to experts able to decipher their meaning. First They Killed My Father: A Daughter of Cambodia Remembers is set to debut on streaming service Netflix later in 2016.
