That’s quite a bit of hardware for a 41-year-old actress; one who’s appeared in films like Gia, Mr. and Mrs. Smith and Salt among many others.
It was, however, Lara Croft: Tomb Raider (2001) that established her presence in Hollywood. But she’s so much more than just an actor; she can direct, too. She directed Unbroken and In The Land of Blood and Honey.
It’s thanks to these movies that we’re so obsessed over Jolie. It’s thanks to her career that the public knows she’s a humanitarian who represents the UN as one of its Goodwill Ambassadors. It’s also thanks to her career that we’re obsessed with “Brangelina,” her highly publicized relationship to Brad Pitt.
But what truly makes Jolie an interesting character in the world of Hollywood is perhaps the little known facts about the actress. Despite the spotlight in which she basks, there’s a lot you may not have known about Jolie.
Here are 10 Surprising Things You Didn’t Know About Angelina Jolie.
10. Suicidal Thoughts
Though she didn’t have a tough upbringing, Angelina Jolie suffered from what is known as suicidal depression as a teenager. The actress has been quite open about her childhood in several interviews with magazines and entertainment media outlets. Jolie experienced the mental illness when she was a teenager trying to get modelling assignments.
According to allwomenstalk.com, Jolie would harm herself with sharp objects. “For some reason, the ritual of having cut myself and feeling the pain, maybe feeling alive, feeling some kind of release, it was somehow therapeutic to me.”
We’re glad she didn’t succumb to depression, instead carving out an impressive career in Hollywood.
