January 2007
The two got to know each other while filming Mr and Mrs Smith and Angelina told US Vogue: “Brad was a huge surprise to me. I, like most people, had a very distant impression of him from the media. I didn’t know much about exactly where Brad was in his personal life but it was clear he was with his best friend [Jennifer], someone he loves and respects.”
“I think we were the last two people who were looking for a relationship. I was quite content to be a single mom.”
“Because of the film, we ended up being brought together to do all these crazy things, and I think we found this strange friendship and partnership that kind of just suddenly happened. I think a few months in I realised, ‘God, I can’t wait to get to work.’”
“Whether it was shooting a scene or arguing about a scene or gun practice or dance class or doing stunts - anything we had to do with each other, we just found a lot of joy in it together and a lot of real teamwork. We just became kind of a pair.”
“It took until, really, the end of the shoot for us, I think, to realize that it might mean something more than we’d earlier allowed ourselves to believe. And both knowing that the reality of that was a big thing, something that was going to take a lot of serious consideration.”
Angelina reveals that she & Brad talked a lot about making a go of it & remained “very, very good friends” after the filming for the movie was over. But when Jennifer Aniston & Brad Pitt divorced in the spring of 2005, Jolie stated that “life developed in a way where we could be together, where it felt like something we would do, we should do.”
On top of being a great father to their three children, Jolie said that Brad has ”wicked sense of humor” & “He’s a great challenge to me.”
“We’re constantly in competition with each other,” she says. “He’s somebody I admire based on the way he lives his life.”
Angelina Jolie stated that she has no plans to marry Brad Pitt, that they are committed parents.
“We both have been married before, so it’s not marriage that’s necessarily kept some people together,” Angelina reveals.
“We are legally bound to our children, not to each other, and I think that’s the most important thing.”
But the real kicker to me, is Jolie’s strong sense of fear regarding intimacy.
I don’t trust anyone,” Jolie admitted.
“I don’t think it’s a good thing. This is going to make you think that maybe I should get some therapy, but trust is such a bizarre word. I’d like to say that I trust my mother, but I also don’t know if she might do something that she thinks is in my best interest.
Still, “I trust Brad will never do anything,” she said.
But after a few moments, Jolie then added, “I don’t know. I don’t trust anybody completely.”
“I’m not a hugger. People make fun of me. It’s something that I have a hard time with. If someone hugs me, I hold my breath. Snuggling, cuddling, hugging, crying . . . all that stuff makes me very uncomfortable.”
