...opens up about the death of her mother, her relationship with Brad Pitt and what being a mother means to her
In this Sunday’s PARADE, actress and activist Angelina Jolie opens up about the death of her mother, her relationship with Brad Pitt and what being a mother means to her. Below, in a Parade.com exclusive, Jolie talks about balancing kids and career, her American identity and how you can help the world.
On juggling kids and work...
"Brad and I are very lucky that we’re in a situation where we can choose to take turns, and one of us can be home with the kids, and so we kind of have that plan of who is doing what. So I have been home, and now I am going to go to work for a little bit, then he is going to work, then I am going to work, then basically we’re going to try to take a year off and just be with the kids. So certainly, we’re trying to find a few projects that we love or that we think would be good to do for one reason or another. But mainly our focus is, 'OK, let’s look at our schedule, and try to figure out when we’re going to have our family time.'"
What it means to be an American...
"I think these days there’s been this wrong opinion that to be conscious and thoughtful of the rest of the world is not to be supportive of America. I think it is the core of what it is to be American. It’s why I’m proud to be American."
On how to get involved...
"My advice for [those who want to help in the world]: People have the Internet, they have access to magazines, newspapers from other countries, they have access to human rights Web sites, U.N. Web sites, all kinds of discussions on many different things—justice, aid abroad, volunteer vacations. There are many things to explore.
I think the first step is to try to navigate your way through some of that and see where your heart goes. That’s a big part of it. I do think it has to be personal. It has to be strong for it to last and grow, and then it will be a pleasure to work hard to do it.
I know people who now work in Washington, very high-powered jobs, who simply started as young people who decided they would just GET to different countries, and say, 'I’ve got a pair of hands, and I’ll help—does anybody need me?' There is a lot to be said for that. If you investigate, there are a lot of volunteer organizations, a lot of NGOs [non-governmental organizations], a lot of religious groups. But first I do think that there is something to knowing who you are and where your heart goes and what you feel you can contribute."
On her involvement with AIDS orphans...
"A few months ago, we wanted to make a donation to AIDS orphans, to their education, to their well-being, to their survival, and we found that there wasn’t a main organization. There were some, but they were focused in different areas. Then we realized that there were no people lobbying for AIDS orphans, because they are not there to lobby for themselves. So we started a program where we would hire people and collect different lobbyists who had worked on different issues, to fight for THAT issue, to fight on behalf of the kids."

SUPERMODEL Cindy Crawford is in Australia, showing she's still got the famous body that propelled her to the top of the fashion world.
And, she said, it's only now that she's become more comfortable in her skin.
``I think I am happier with my body now because I am less judgmental of all women now, including myself,'' said Crawford, 41, who is on a two- day visit to Sydney as part of her latest modelling gig as the face of Omega watches.
``I have more self confidence. Also I appreciate my body for all that it's done _ most importantly, giving birth to two children.''

Singer- actress Mandy Moore has refused to do nude scenes in films, for she doesn't want strangers to know how she looks without clothes.
The 22-year-old said that she would find it extremely difficult to walk down the street with the feeling that passers-by have seen her bare body.
"It would be completely uncomfortable to walk down the street and know that the person passing by had seen me without my clothes on," she said.
"I've turned down several roles where the producers or writers wouldn't budge on that point," she added.
However, Moore insisted that she doesn't mean that actresses shouldn't do nude scenes, and that one can look feminine and sexy without posing 'half-naked'.
"I'm not saying that it's wrong for someone else to do them, but I think there's a way to be feminine and sexy without posing half-naked," she added.
She looks great! Simple and classy.

Let’s hope she loses the bathing suit, because it’s getting to be a little monotonous.

Stefani’s fragrance, created with Firmenich, has top notes of sparkling green freshness, leafy water hyacinth, white freesia, fresh pear and violet leaves; a heart of jasmine petals, rose, lily of the valley, sweet pea and orange blossom, and a drydown of frangipani blossom, peach skin, heliotrope flower and sensual musk.
“My mom had sweet peas in the yard growing up,” said Stefani, who grew up in Anaheim, Calif., as one of four children. “I wanted this fragrance to be light, fresh and clean. I want people to say, ‘I want to smell like that.’
Why L? “It’s the first letter in L.A.M.B., and it stands for love,” said Stefani. And it will always be memorable to her for other reasons: “It’s always going to remind me of this time in my life, of giving birth to my son and the [apparel] line and everything else. It’s always going to be special to me.”
That said, Stefani made it clear that she’s not going to settle for just one scent.
“I’m currently working on five fragrances,” she said. “But this one is intended to be the classic.”
