Angelina Cries Talking About Late Mother (VIDEO)

Actress Angelina Jolie welled up with tears as she talked about her late mother at a press conference for her new film 'Changeling' in London on Monday, even cursing as she welled up (the word "fuck" is muted in the video below). Her mom Marcheline died of cancer early last year.

'We used to call her Marshmallow, as a joke, because she was just the softest, most gentle woman in the world.

'She was really sweet and was never angry - she couldn't swear to save her life. But when it came to her kids, she was really fierce and so this (film) is very much her, her story.

'She was the woman I related to, who had that elegance and strength for knowing what was right.'

She's crying just like Jen was when she found out her hubby was cheating on her

[kelly]

even jen says that he did not cheat.

[konnie1]

Nope she never said that. There is a difference between" My husband didnt cheat on me" and " I chose to belive my husband AT THE TIME" Note the keyword " at the time" Why do u think she said that? Meaning @ the time she didnt know better but as more and more pics were popping up of them all over the net she prob. changed her mind. People believe what they want to belive but that doesnt necassary mean its the truth. She belived her husband @ the time to save her from some more heartache.­...

Ms. Aniston told Vanity Fair that Pitt 'told' her he didn't cheat but I think we now know otherwise.

[anghiari]

You mean Jen who was estranged from her mother throughout her marriage to BPitt, so that he never even got to see or meet her mother....­given how boring Jennifer Aniston, who smoked, was in therapy, afraid to fly commercial flights and had her girlfriends far too much involved in her married life, was...find­ing a real woman probably threw Brad for a loop!

[konnie1]

Finding a real woman???? Huh well the last time i've heard Angelina hasnt spoken to her father and as a matter of fact Brad has never met her father either so how is that different? Doesn Angelina smoke? Dont know if she does anymore but she sure as hell used to. Jen had her girlfriends too involved in her married life and u know this how??? I know its way different from being with someone who doesnt have any girlfriends at all like Jolie huh? Wasnt Maryanne Pearl her bff? Oh wait that was during A Mighty Heart and since that bombed so well Maryanne..­. Its amazing how many pics we saw of them while promoting that movie, their kids feeding dolphins, Maryanne @ a french villa and since then we have nothing...­..

Holy Christ folks, get a grip!

While you may be jealous of Angelina Jolie's money and dazzling beauty, look at the REALITY of it - this woman:

A) is an extremely talented actress (watch Mio if you don't agree);
B) has been a trailblazer for women in the arts;
C) a strong role model for women everywhere;
D) a passionate and sincere, HARDWORKING VOLUNTEER advocate of peace, human rights and human welfare;
E) a formidable athlete and fearless stuntwoman;
F) grew up a social leper at her high school;
G) has been used by men repeatedly in both her career and private life, and turned the tables, to triumph as a powerful, self-actualized woman;
H) is a kind-hearted, dedicated mother.

So what if she took the husband of a woman that wasn't satisfying him? Firstly, that's none of our business, and seconbdly, in the end, ALL parties concerned came out happier for it. Everyone deserves a fair shot at love and passion in life.

I have nothing but unqualified respect and admiration for both Ms. Jolia and Mr. Pitt.

No way to diss Angelina for an honest weep over her late mother. Anyone would understand those tears with the possible exception of Christina Crawford - Joan's girl.

There has to be something special about a person who loves children and loves their mother exceedingly. I think it would be a smash if Brad and Angelina did a remake of the movie "Father Goose".

[whoknew---]

This statement is simply an homage to the caring, strength, and homage of a mother who is no longer here and how much missed she is...

That loss speaks to all of us...

It just shows Angelina Jolie feels loss just like everybody else...

[peepthis]

Many of the blogger are move by Jolie's 'heartfelt' comments regarding her late mother. I wonder if any of you are aware the Marcie Lynn (her real name, it was not Marcheline) died alone in the hospital. Her 'caring' daughter was photographed the day before partying in New Orleans with her assistant Holly, and keeping tabs on that wanderer Brad Pitt. Jolie did not even bother to take Shiloh to meet her grandmother before she died, nor were there visitors for Marcie Lynn's last Christmas. She was cremated without ceremony and this 'loving' daughter did not even stick around to collect the ashes (they were mailed to her later). Other family members (including Voight) were not invited to attend, so they had a separate memorial service. Jolie's adoration for her mother in death is certainly different from what she showed Marcie Lynn during her life. The tears are a ploy to deflect from all the negative publicity and so many Brangelina lovers have bought into her psychosis. I've noticed that a lot of people are finally waking up from their Brangelina induced lunacy to face reality about these two media wh0res. The adoptions, the 'loving family' image, the humanitarism are all contrived to sell themselves to the public. Ponder this: What other HW couple spend so much time trying to convince the public that there 'life is perfect" ? I can not think of one.

I had to drop out of college in my Freshman year to take care of my father, who was dieing of prostate cancer. It is very hard to lose someone that you love to this disease. I am very sorry for her loss mostly due to the fact that her mother will never see the children that Angelina has grow up. My father died 13 years ago and I cry because I miss him still.

For all of you people that are being nasty over the loss of a family member, and hate Angelina because Jennifer Aniston couldn't make a marriage work with Brad Pitt, you really need to get a grip on reality and maybe have a heart.

[neurologymatters]

The loss of someone you love never fully goes away. Highd, My sympathies on the loss of your Father. I agree with your comments.
Angelina misses her Mother and tears are normal. And very real.

[progressivelady]

I think it's due to postpartum depression, as a woman I know after you have a baby we cry over everything plus her mother did die, I don't care for her at all but, I do have the compassion gene

[katielady]

geez!!! GUYS! SHE IS AN ACTRESS, has anyone forgotten????? packaging, packaging. packaging.­. movies to promote, money to be made.. and above all.... PUBLICITY ... she is a publicity junkie...

[ZimboChick]

ok so why did they cut out the part where she swore?? crying for john mccain

[Mort]

Somebody put some makeup on her quick.

[coolkraft]

who cares...mo­st anyone whose mother has died misses them and cries about them at some point

[ethancorso]

Why is video of celebrities crying always posted to HuffPo within minutes? Are we so emotionally stunted that we find some sort of catharsis in watching the tears of others. It's strangely pathetic.

[lioness39]

We've only been privvy to the two sets today - Angie and Britney.

[pepa]

This just occurred to me. You never hear the media pressing Brad Pitt about the issue. It's always the girl cat fight angle. He never gets put in the hot seat! What's up w/that? A little sexism maybe? Maybe it's not as entertaining as dragging the Angelina/Jennifer crap over and over again. Oh well....

[georgiaR]

She's a homewrecker

[arizonastudent01]

Pretty lady. Made me tear up. Of course she would be sad talking about her and her children as her mother wasn't there for the twins. Wow, pretty lady.
