You might be pleased that Angelina Jolie has returned to New York with Brad Pitt and all her children, but your joy could be misplaced.
That’s because the logistics of shipping the world’s most famous couple plus all their assorted children to one of the world’s busiest cities are a nightmare. Such a nightmare, in fact, that Angelina Jolie’s gigantic army of family and staff apparently brought traffic to a grinding standstill in the area surrounding her hotel yesterday.
However, we get the feeling the this giant traffic jam was nothing more than a clever promotional stunt for Angelina Jolie’s new movie The Changeling. After all, it used to be known as the boring-looking movie that Angelina Jolie only did because she thought she’d get an Oscar out of it, and now it’s the movie that made a few New Yorkers a couple of minutes late for their tea. And that’s probably better, we’d imagine.
This trip to New York by Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie to promote The Changeling was probably the best thing for Angelina at the moment.
For example, if reports are to be believed Angelina Jolie is currently suffering from a touch of postnatal depression following the birth of her twins. And Brad Pitt’s just made her move to Berlin. Berlin, for crying out loud – the same city where David Bowie recorded Low, the same city that’s named after Lou Reed‘s most depressing album and the city that inspired the name of the band who made Take My Breath Away. Frankly it’s a surprise that Angelina Jolie hasn’t thrown herself out of a bloody window already.
So, yes, it’s definitely good that Angelina Jolie has returned to New York for a large serving of razzle dazzle. Especially since, by single-handedly snarling up the entire city’s traffic system, Angelina gets to remember what it’s like to conduct your life with the profound sense of entitlement you only get in the good old US of A. MSNBC reports:
The family is in town for the premiere of Jolie’s new film, “Changeling,” and while there’s plenty of Oscar buzz surrounding Jolie’s performance, locals were buzzing about the traffic jam the family caused outside their midtown Manhattan hotel. “I guess the size of their family and the amount of traffic they cause is directly proportional,” said one observer. “You’d think (Jolie) was part of the U.N. General Assembly.”
Ha, yes, do you see? You’d think that Angelina Jolie was part of the U.N. General Assembly because all her children come from different places. Ha ha ha. Look, the representative for Cambodia wants more biscuits. Ha ha. And the ambassador for Angelina Jolie’s womb is trying to pass a resolution about needing a poo. Ha ha. Or something. Ha.
Still, let’s be thankful that Angelina Jolie is only in town to promote a highbrow arthouse movie that people will only watch because it might win an Oscar and they feel like they should. Imagine what’d happen to the traffic if she made a film that people actually liked the look of. People would be actually dying of starvation in their cars as we speak.
It’s too much to think about. Let’s just all be thankful that Angelina Jolie has never actually made one of these films.

Actually, you’d think she was part of the UN General Assembly
because her hotel it three blocks away from the UN
which swamped the area with motorcades last week.
