Angelina Jolie knows her Star Wars well.Like very well.So well that she even has a favorite character."I'm personally a Boba Fett fan," the Oscar winner says.Jolie revealed her admiration for the sci-fi bounty hunter when she interviewed her Unbroken star Domhnall Gleeson (he's in Episode VII) for the new issue of Interview magazine.When Gleeson remarked that Jolie could probably get a part in director J.J. Abrams' reboot of the iconic franchise if she really wanted one, she asked, "Can Boba Fett have a missus? Well, put in a good word for me, then."For the record, Gleeson admitted, "I was more an Indiana Jones kid than a Star Wars kid." During the twosome's chat, Gleeson turned the tables on Jolie and asked her a few questions."So were you an actor first then director?" Gleeson inquired."Yeah, well pretty much," Jolie said. "My mom always wanted me to be an actor. And I started going to theater and going on auditions young. I only realized about five years ago that I actually didn't want to be an actor." Not that she's ever really stopped acting. Not only did Jolie write and direct the upcoming By the Sea, but she and her hubby Brad Pitt star in the indie film together. It's the first time they've acted alongside each other since Mr. & Mrs. Smith.Jolie also insisted being a movie star was never important to her. "I'm a very private person," she said. "I don't go out much. I'm home with kids. I go to work. I don't really like being the focus of attention, which is why I like being behind the camera more."

Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie are reportedly having money problems.The couple, who married last August, are rapidly burning through their estimated $425 million net worth, according to an OK! magazine report, which claims the duo are $35 million in debt.Pitt, 51, and Jolie, 39, recently listed their New Orleans home for $6.5 million, and if they "don't unload it soon" they "will seriously consider" selling their $60 million chateau in France as well, an insider told OK!.Caring for their six children -- Maddox, 13, Pax, 11, Zahara, 10, Shiloh, 8, and twins Vivienne and Knox, 6 -- costs Jolie and Pitt $1 million a year, according to OK! magazine.Plus, the couple's "travel costs are ridiculous," the insider said. "Even if they're not flying privately, they buy first-class tickets for everyone, and that adds up to hundreds of thousands of dollars."Pitt and Jolie apparently have no plans to quell their insane spending anytime soon; Angie turns 40 next week, and for her birthday, Brad bought her a seaplane, sources say."Brad is also reportedly arranging flying lessons for his wife so that she is able to use her present promptly," according to the Sunday Mirror (via the Express Tribune). "Although Angelina does have the basic skills to handle an airplane, she needs a bit of training in order to successfully manoeuvre a seaplane."Jolie and Pitt's marriage, which earlier this year was apparently on the rocks, has reportedly been reinvigorated by couple's counseling."Angie's friend recommended this amazing therapist, and they've been talking everything over with her," a friend told OK! magazine (via the Belfast Telegraph) last month. "She's the third person in their marriage right now, and it's been life-changing!""Angie said it's been like falling in love with Brad again," according to the source. "[It's] transformed the family dynamic. It's something they plan to do for the rest of their lives."

Wow, where has the time gone? Shiloh continues to grow into a stunning young girl. Her parents must be very, very proud of her.It was a big year for the young girl. Not only did she get to attend a handful of movie premiers with her mom, as well as attending the 2015 Kids’ Choice Awards, but she also got to meet Queen Elizabeth II at Buckingham Palace! Seriously, how many kids can say they’ve done all that AND traveled the world all in a single year?Speaking of BIG events, who could forget the biggest one of them all? Yes, even bigger than meeting the Queen of England! Shiloh got to witness her parents finally tie the knot back in Aug. 2014. Honestly, what an amazing year she’s had!“I think she is fascinating, the choices she is making,” she told Reuters about Shiloh’s attire. “And I would never be the kind of parent to force somebody to be something they are not. I think that is just bad parenting.” Right on Angelina, we agree!Angelina added, “Children should be allowed to express themselves in whatever way they wish without anybody judging them because it is an important part of their growth. Society always has something to learn when it comes to the way we judge each other, label each other. We have far to go.” It’s great both Angelina and Brad support Shiloh’s personal fashion choices. We love it!
