Angelina Jolie has candidly revealed the lessons she learned from her late mother Marcheline Bertrand. Speaking to The Sydney Morning Herald this weekend, the Hollywood megastar, 45, praised Marcheline for being a 'gentle' mother and said she's always tried to treat her own children with the same tenderness. 'My mother was very gentle. I can be many things in my work and in life, but I am very warm and gentle with my children,' Angelina said. 'That kindness and warmth is a foundation that's unbelievably important. She gave me many other things and taught me many lessons,' she continued. But if you don't have that base, to feel valued and safe, then it's hard for any of the other messages or lessons to land.'Marcheline died in 2007 at the age of 56 following a lengthy battle with ovarian cancer. The Maleficent star also told the publication that she's stepped back from directing films to be able to focus on her six children. Angelina shares Maddox, 19, Pax, 17, Zahara, 16, Shiloh, 14, and twins Knox and Vivienne, 12, with her ex-husband Brad Pitt, whom she has been in the midst of a custody battle with since their separation in 2016.Pitt and Jolie famously fell in love on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith, while Pitt was still married to Jennifer Aniston. The couple married in France in 2014 after 10 years of dating, but split two years later in September 2016. While the couple were legally divorced in 2019, things are far from amicable. They have been at war over their kids for five years, with Brad striving for 50/50 custody with Angelina wanting full physical custody.

Angelina Jolie is the first to admit Mother's Day makes her emotional."It does mean a lot to moms, so try not to forget it," she tells Extra while promoting her upcoming film Those Who Wish Me Dead.Jolie, 45, is mom to six children — Maddox, 19, Pax, 17, Zahara, 16, Shiloh, 14, and twins Vivienne and Knox, 12 — and she says they consistently hit it out of the park on the annual holiday."My kids have always been amazing at Mother's Day. The fun for me is that I don't plan anything, I don't do anything, and they all tend to work together to surprise me with something," she explains. "It is just the knowing that they are doing something together and thinking of something together, and that they want to and that they think it is important always makes me cry." "They always joke about how quickly it makes me cry," says Jolie. "They will laugh at how many times I cry in the day or how quickly I cry. … 'Oh, there she goes!' " In the March issue of British Vogue, Jolie said it's a "big deal" in her mind if her kids "accept me." She explained, "I mean, that's the thing for a lot of mothers, and for a lot of parents regardless. But I think even more so if you have adopted children. They have to choose you too. It's not the parents' family and they're in it. It's our family." Jolie also offered advice to other parents hoping to raise socially conscious humans."I know this may sound strange, but don't make it a duty for them to do good or have to give back," she said. "If we can help children feel that it's not about duty or service or charity, but the joy of an interconnected life with people you respect, then it feels very different."

Tunisia’s Angelina Jolie-lookalike Covid-19 vaccine prank show angers WHO

World Health Organisation says programme will spread vaccine scepticism.It is a Ramadan tradition: each night after iftar, millions of Tunisians tune in to their favourite Ramadan shows – limited-run series filled with intrigue, romance, or comedy. But this week, one popular production, a candid camera prank show called Angelina 19, had the World Health Organisation demanding it be removed from the airwaves.Each night the show invites a local sports star, musician or politician to a panel discussion about Covid-19, before a surprise guest arrives: an Angelina Jolie lookalike in her role as a goodwill ambassador for the United Nations.The fake Jolie tells the audience she is donating thousands of doses of a vaccine "approved by the WHO" to Tunisia, and persuades them to get vaccinated on camera.A "renowned Tunisian cardiologist" vouches for the vaccine, and the group retires to a room offstage to line up for the jab.But events take a turn when two of the actors in the show fall to the floor, convulsing and screaming in pain, shortly after receiving the fake vaccine. Chaos ensues and one of them is "pronounced dead".The candid camera captures the shock and horror of the celebrities as they try to navigate the situation.While the show’s producers claim this is all for comic effect, the WHO is not laughing.In addition to the misappropriation of the WHO logo and name, the organisation is worried about the show’s effect on vaccine hesitancy.In a letter to the Minister of Health, the WHO’s representative in Tunisia, Yves Souteyrand, called for the show to be removed from the airwaves.“It is known that part of the population is reluctant to be vaccinated and that major efforts must be made to build trust in the vaccine,” the letter, obtained by The National, reads.“The media have a role to play in this area. But, we fear that this kind of programme, broadcast on a popular channel with a broad audience, will promote scepticism, hesitation to get vaccinated and conspiracies, by associating the vaccine with death or serious side effects.” Uptake of the vaccine slowed in recent weeks after an initial surge when the first doses arrived in the country. A little more than 271,000 Tunisians have received at least one dose of the vaccine, although millions of doses are available. Of the more than 11 million people living in Tunisia, just 1.3 million are registered in the online system for obtaining a vaccine.Many Tunisians already question whether the vaccine is effective, safe or necessary.Aymen Tarhouni, 28, said he was not planning on getting vaccinated.“My mother got it a few months ago,” he said while out enjoying a warm day in Tunis’s bustling downtown. “Thankfully she made it, so for me I think I’ll leave it in God’s hands.” He said that he does not like to check the daily number of new infections, “because it adds anxiety to my life that I don’t need”. But the number of new infections continues to climb steadily, with nearly 2,000 new cases reported each day. Hospital ICU units are nearing capacity and deaths have climbed past 10,000. Last week a government scientific adviser warned that the healthcare system could collapse if the caseload did not come down.Some of Tunisia’s most vulnerable, the elderly, are still sceptical whether the vaccine is safe. Abdelaziz, 71, said he had registered with the online system, but was worried about the possible ill effects of the jab. “There's not enough information about some vaccine types,” he said, “especially the one that causes blood clots.” For Nadia, 36, Angelina 19 is just another hurdle in her quest to persuade her ageing mother to get vaccinated. “We young people know the show’s a candid camera, a prank,” she said. “But old people don’t necessarily get that, and it scares them. My mother still won’t get her vaccine.”
