Born June 4, 1975 in Los
Angeles, Angelina Jolie Voight (daughter of actor John Voight,
using her middle name professionally,) has become one of the most
fascinating women in Hollywood. Daring to be different, perhaps to
the point of being bizarre, Jolie has starred in many big budget films
of late and has catapulted herself from model daughter of a famous
acting pair to a top billed actress in her own right.
Her first notable film was the internet
ground breaker film Hackers in 1995. Angelina had her most
memorable role perhaps in the film Gia, which profiled the
life of the bisexual and heroin addict Gia Carangi, who also died
from AIDS. At the time, it has been said that Jolie, who tends to
absorb herself in her roles, may have gotten too much into this one
according to worried friends.

"You're young, you're drunk, you're in bed,
you have knives; shit happens."
"Oh, God, I struggle
with low self-esteem all the time. I think everyone does. I have
so much wrong with me, it's unbelievable."
"The thing about this
business--they like to stick you in one thing, and they like to
tell you 'you're the dark person' or 'you're the sexy person' or
'you're the mother,' and you can't be something else. You just have
to keep fighting against it."
