Angelina Jolie
Angelina Jolie feels people don't take her politics seriously because she is an actress.
She told this in Germany’s Der Spiegel magazine: “I don't necessarily think that's a natural role for an actor. Sometimes acting and politics make a very bad combination. I think that sometimes people take me less seriously in my work for the UN because I appear in movies.” Despite her tireless work, Angelina – who spent Tuesday (28.08.07) visiting 1,200 Iraqi refugees in makeshift shelters near the Iraq Syria border – doesn’t think film stars should be seen as moral guardians.
She added: “I think we should be looking for great leaders in people who have dedicated their lives to those issues. And the reality is that actors spend a great deal of their time making films.”
