Angelina Jolie may be one of the most beautiful biggest and brightest stars in the Hollywood firmament but shes got her feet firmly planted on the ground Despite her successful career and incredible wealth the 46yearold Oscar winning actress has a down to earth quality and emotional intelligence about her that is so rare and refreshing to see among the top ranks of the industry.
While many Hollywood superstars seem to consider their film careers as the be all and end all of their lives Jolie uses her fame for a meaningful cause that benefits the least fortunate See below Few celebs can boast of being a top Hollywood actress and a humanitarian worker at the same time and Jolie is one of them The star has held the post of Special Envoy with the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees UNHCR since 2012 and was previously a Goodwill Ambassador for the same organization from 2001 to 2012.
Speaking to Vogue about her humanitarian work she said I found myself a student at their feet I have learned more from refugees about family resilience dignity and survival than I can express Jolie can definitely afford to just live a life of luxury and comfort instead of going on field missions to crisis zones so why does she do it She told Vogue I see all people as equal I see the abuse and suffering and I cannot stand by Around the world people are fleeing gas attacks rape female genital mutilation beatings persecution murder They do not flee to improve their lives They flee because they cannot survive otherwise What I really want is to see an end to what forces people out of their homelands.
