She's a busy working mom.Angelina Jolie, 44, is taking on a new role as a contributing editor for Time, the outlet's Editor in Chief announced on Wednesday.The actress and advocate will focus her forthcoming pieces on important topics that dovetail with her long history of activism. Edward Felsenthal, Editor in Chief and CEO of Time, explained in the announcement that the Oscar winner would focus 'primarily on displacement, conflict and human rights.' Angelina will release new pieces monthly across all Time platforms and will 'draw on her eighteen years working with the UN Refugee Agency.' Time already released the star's premiere piece on Wednesday, titled What We Owe Refugees.The release coincides with World Refugee Day on June 20th and will appear in the July 1, 2019 physical issue of Time Magazine.In the article, the A-lister draws a parallel between modern refugees and those who fled in World War II (which was the crisis that led to the creation of the UN Refugee Agency).'Who comes to mind when you picture a refugee?' she queried in her opening line.'You probably don’t imagine a European. But if you were a child of World War II and asked your parents what a refugee was, they would probably have described someone from Europe.'The topic of refugees is a global hot button issue and, particularly in Angelina's home country of the USA, is at the forefront of news.Under international law it is not an option to assist refugees, it is an obligation,' she writes.'It is perfectly possible to ensure strong border control and fair, humane immigration policies while meeting our responsibility to help refugees.' Angelina previously released an article for Time on the role of women in Afghani peace negotiations. On the acting front, Angelina recently wrapped several films including Maleficent: Mistress of Evil, The One and Only Ivan and Come Away.Her ex-husband Brad Pitt recently issued Jolie an ultimatum to sign their divorce papers or risk facing a 'financial sanction.' Brad allegedly encouraged his lawyers to ask the judge to finalize a deadline for Angelina to sign the papers, and put in place a hefty fine if she fails to do so, after accusing her of essentially dragging her feet in regards to wrapping up their split.In April, it was reported that Judge John Ouderkirk extended Brad and Angelina's court case until December 31, 2019.Angelina and Brad met on set of the 2005 film Mr And Mrs Smith, and wed in 2014 in France. In 2016 she filed for divorce.

Jennifer Aniston and Angelina Jolie's ugly new clash over Brad Pitt

They split over two years ago after falling in love as co-stars on the set of Mr and Mrs Smith, and since then Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s separation has become one of the most drawn out – and often bitter – that Hollywood’s seen in recent years.Now an insider tells New Idea that American actress Jennifer Aniston is increasingly fed up that she can’t move on with her life – and with Brad.“Jennifer is furious over the whole mess because she can see that Ange is dragging her feet on the divorce just to sabotage her relationship with Brad,” says the source.“She knows that Brad is moving heaven and earth to get Angelina to finalise the divorce, but she just won’t budge –it’s infuriating. And for Jennifer, it’s just Ange ruining her relationship with Brad all over again.” Earlier this month it was reported that, frustrated at the length of time their divorce is taking to finalise, Brad ordered Angelina to sign the papers after stalling.According to The Sun newspaper, Brad instructed his lawyers to impose a deadline for his ex to sign off on their divorce or risk being fined. As reported by their source, Brad has felt “pushed to his limits” during the nearly three-year process of legally separating from Angelina and was “sick and tired” of her dragging it out.In April courts issued the pair with a bifurcated judgement, which means they are legally single, however their lawyers are still working out details of the final settlement. At the time it was reported that Judge John Ouderkirk had extended the court case until December 31, for the couple formerly known as 'Brangelina'.For Jennifer, who divorced Justin Theroux in 2017, it feels horribly ironic that her happiness is at the mercy of Angelina’s behaviour.
“First Angelina stole her husband and ruined her marriage – and now she’s doing it again by stopping them from moving forward and putting Ange behind them. Jen thinks that Ange is getting some sort of pleasure from dragging out the divorce – and the fact that she’s just trying to cause Jen pain is really upsetting.”It’s not the first time Angelina’s been accused of dragging her feet since she filed for divorce in September 2016 after Brad was involved in an alleged physical altercation with eldest son Maddox on a private plane. This led to child services investigating, although the case was later dropped.Last year she was warned by a judge to let Brad have more time with their younger five kids or risk losing custody of them. She was urged to let Brad form a “healthy and strong relationship” with the children, and not intercept telephone calls or messages between them. A strict timeline of visits was established. This year, however, the couple seemed to be on more amicable terms with reports they had set up a co-parenting schedule for the northern summer holidays and while Angelina is filming her latest project in New Mexico.Us Weekly magazine reported last week that Brad now sees Maddox, 17, Pax, 15, Zahara, 14, Shiloh, 13, and 10-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne “several times” a week.OK! magazine reported last month that whatever Angelina’s intention, he is determined to make things work with Jennifer.“Brad knows he’s made mistakes and that he’s hurt Jen badly, but he’s a changed man. He’s clear about what he wants and who he wants to be with – and that’s Jen,” a source told the US magazine.In a strange twist, Jen and Brad’s former home, where they lived from 2001 to 2004, has gone on the market for an incredible $69 million. It’s another reminder of how much they lost when Brad fell for Angelina.“Jennifer just doesn’t know what she’s done to deserve so much pain at the hands of one woman. And the fact that Brad and their lawyers are powerless makes it even more infuriating.”

Angelina Jolie Asking Out Keanu Reeves On A Date?

Angelina Jolie has not asked out Keanu Reeves on a date, despite a made-up tabloid report. Gossip Cop can exclusively debunk the story. The actor’s own spokesperson tells us it’s untrue.According to Star, however, Jolie decided she’s ready to find love again after turning 44 earlier this month and has set her sights on the John Wick star. “Her birthday felt like a turning point and the right time to begin a relationship,” an alleged source tells the outlet. “She hasn’t been this excited about a man since she first met Brad [Pitt].”The magazine says Jolie first met Reeves in 2017 when she bought a house in the same neighborhood of Los Angeles where the actor’s mom Patricia lives. “They found they have a lot in common, and the attraction was definitely there,” adds the supposed insider. “Patricia would love to see Keanu finally settle down after all these years, and Angelina’s someone who’d fit right in with the family.”The questionable tipster continues, “Keanu gives her butterflies! After all, he’s just her type – edgy and a bit of a rogue. Plus, she thinks he’s gorgeous.” The unnamed source further contends that Jolie “was too nervous” to ask Reeves’ mom to set up a date, so she instead had a “mutual pal” reach out to the actor. “She wants an intimate dinner at her house, and has arranged a chef to prepare it ahead of time so she and Keanu can be totally alone,” adds the seemingly phony insider.
Gossip Cop, however, reached out to Reeves’ rep, who tells us Star was already sent a denial prior to publishing its report. The actor’s spokesperson, who was alerted of the article ahead of time, tells us, “This is the statement I sent to them: Your story is completely false and has no basis in any truth. This event never occurred. Once again you are manufacturing and inventing lies in order to increase your sales for purely financial gain.” The unreliable magazine didn’t bother to include the statement from Reeves’ spokesperson, but had no problem presenting claims from an anonymous “source.”It should also be noted, Jolie’s rep has told Gossip Cop several times that the actress is focused on work and her children at this time. The actress, who’s spending the summer with her kids in New Mexico while shooting a movie, isn’t interested in dating.Unfortunately, Star has a habit of arbitrarily linking the actress to famous men. Back in February, Gossip Cop busted the tabloid for falsely claiming Jolie was dating Sean Penn. She wasn’t. Last December, we called out the publication for wrongly reporting that Jolie was secretly dating Jared Leto. That wasn’t the case either.Additionally, this isn’t the first time a tabloid has made up a story about Jolie dating Reeves. Last October, Gossip Cop debunked an NW article claiming the two stars had been in a secret romance since July 2017 following a “top-secret trip to a secluded Greek island.” This latest article dials back the scenario a bit, but it’s no more accurate.

Angelina Jolie pleads with international community to provide more support to 20,000 Venezuelan children who have fled the crisis-hit country after failed bid to overthrow President Maduro

Hollywood icon Angelina Jolie has called on the international community to help the 20,000 Venezuelan children who are at risk of being left without basic citizenship rights. The 44-year-old actress, who was visiting refugees forced to flee their homes along the Colombian-Venezuelan border, drew attention to the thousands of children born abroad who were being left stateless as a result of the humanitarian crisis.Jolie, a special envoy for the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees, who is on a two-day trip to meet Venezuelan migrants, called on the western world to provide more support to the South American countries sheltering the refugees. The visit, which also saw the star meet with Colombian President Ivan Duque in Cartagena, comes a month after a failed attempted to overthrow President Maduro by the opposition leader Juan Guaido.Speaking at a press conference the Academy Award-winner said: I've seen for myself the strain being placed on the schools and hospitals and local services, but I have also seen the inspiring humanity being shown by local communities. 'The President and I spoke of the risk of statelessness for more than 20,000 Venezuelan children, his commitment to always helping children.'We discussed the search for durable solutions for the internationally displaced and refugees in the context of the Colombian peace process.'Above all, we agreed on the urgent need of the international community to give more support to Colombia, Peru and Ecuador who are bearing the brunt of this crisis.' She added: 'So, I am hopeful and optimistic about Colombia's ability to weather these challenges and to emerge even stronger. 'And I will certainly do my part to urge the international community to give support necessary to help achieve the long-term peace and stability of this very beautiful country.'As the refugee crisis escalates, Venezuelan parents have found it increasingly difficult to register their baby's birth as a result of an ever-shrinking number of Venezuelan consulates or because they do not have migration papers.
The UN estimates around four million Venezuelan refugees have fled their homeland since 2014 to Peru, Ecuador and Colombia. Following the visit, the Colombian president, whose country has received 1.3 million refugees from Venezuela, said he hoped Jolie's visit would raise attention to the seriousness of the migration crisis.Jolie's visit comes as citizens of the country continue to flee to neighbouring Colombia where the government and aid agencies have tried to provide housing, food and healthcare. In April violent clashes erupted in the country after the US-backed opposition leader Juan Guaido tried and failed to oust President Maduro- who is seen as Venezuela’s interim president.Guaido, whose effort was dubbed Operacion Libertad, had urged local military to rise up against the government in a video.The operation, which translates to Operation Freedom, was unsuccessful and instead saw hundreds of rebellion protests erupt on the streets of Caracas.Following the failed oust the Russian state defense contractor Rostec removed hundreds of its contractors from Venezuela's, according to the Wall Street Journal.
