Angelina not such a saint after all

Angelina Jolie has made plenty of hay for adopting kids from Asia and Africa, but it turns out that Jolie isn't such a role model for many adoption advocates. As Page Six reports, When she took in Maddox from Cambodia, Jolie used a Seattle-based agency that was then found guilty of fraud. "Angelina is not a hero in the adoption community," said one advocate, who suggested that the scandal caused Cambodia to shut the door on many other families waiting to bring children into their homes. Jolie was recently quoted in a French magazine as criticizing Madonna for her adoption of Malawian baby David. Angie later said she was misquoted. Still, in her defense, Jolie wasn't aware of the agency's woes when she adopted Maddox.

Because saints hang vials of blood from other people around their necks.

Chat Icon So doesn't this negate the whole point of the article.

Not that I ever thought of her as a saint. Come on. She would make out with her brother and broke up a marriage.

But leave the girl alone about this one. So she hooked up with an agency that she had no clue was doing something fishy. What's the BFD?
