Angelina Jolie: Kids Come First, Then Brad

Oscar? Who cares about an Oscar? Everybody but Angelina Jolie. She would gladly give up her own golden statue for her partner Brad Pitt to win one. The couple even skipped the Oscar Nomination luncheon this week.

Since Jolie is still technically doing promos for 'The Changeling' she showed up for an interview with 'Good Morning America' today and talked in depth about Brad, kids, and leaving acting. Here are some highlights from the interview via justjared.com:

On her Oscars nomination:
"I feel very very lucky that I have won in the past. Listen, it’s lovely to be nominated. But I’m hoping Benjamin Button does really good on the night…. I’m rooting for Brad [Pitt]."

On watching her own films:
"A film or two I haven't seen. Most of them I have seen once. I like the process of doing them more than watching them. I don't really like to watch movies. I love to watch Brad's movies."

On her priorities:
"I say kids first, woman to Brad and then my work internationally; and try to educate myself and learn about the world and do some good things while I'm alive. So what is that [ranking]? Fourth?"

On what her kids think of her career:
"I think they only think I animate Kung Fu Panda… and that’s the extent of my career."

On stepping away from acting:
"I’ve been lucky enough to have a great career and a lot of success. But I wake up every day just the happiest mommy… I don’t want to wake up one day and say I had my career that expanded so much longer and I did that many more films and miss out on all those other things in life."

Check out Angelina Jolie’s full in-depth Oscars interview on Nightline’s weeklong Oscar series, airing Tuesday 11:35pm EST.

By the way, it takes TWO to make a marriage work or not work. In this case, it took THREE of them. That's too many people in a marriage.

ANYONE can manage work and 6 kids with cooks,drivers house cleaners,gardeners and nannies. A GREAT MOTHER does it WITHOUT all of the help. Her Oscar was like a decade ago and I'm sure she sucked someones cock for that one.You give her WAY too much credit.

Angie ALREADY has an Oscar, balancing work and family. She isn't some incapable sitcom actress who can't even manage marriage and work but keep lying about wanting babies.

As long as she is happy and loves her kids, I have no problem with her.

Anyways, she hasnt done anything wrong. Okay, so she stole a man, but everyone does that! This is not the first time, and people should just grow up and let it go. And all her charitable acts, and her encouraging us to do the same, what did she do to you? She didnt kill you ya know. And she's trying to make the world a better place. ( My opinion, you have yours, just showing my side, dont attack me. Im not gonna respond anyway if you do.

Oh please everyone knows that she would toss Brad to the side when she gets bored with him and wants something new to fuck like her brother.
