I admit it: I read IN TOUCH magazine. Well, "reading" it is a little generous. I started buying it to show my girls just how actresses are airbrushed and photoshopped (or not)...it's pretty funny when you noticed that someone in layout or design did a lousy cropping job and some model is missing a leg, or the shadows are all wrong on some picture, and the two people in the "candid" shot are not really next to each other at all....and now I just get it for fun, and because it gives me much amusement over my morning coffee when I'm not quite ready to think. And one can never get too much of Britney, Paris, or Brangelina, right...?
HOWEVER, this is what I want to know: why hasn't anyone pointed out that maybe Angelina Jolie is so darn thin because she's an over-worked, over-stressed mom??? Sure, maybe she takes diet pills, and maybe she's a nut (frankly, I think that anyone who jets from country to country, dragging their children with them all the time, has got to be a little nutty), but isn't it just as darn possible that the woman is super-frazzled and stressed? Her mom just died, and she has four kids, and a more than full time job. There was a time in my life that people gave me all kinds of grief for being too thin, and I can guarantee you that it wasn't because I was choking down diet pills and avoiding paparazzi. I had a 1 year-old and a four-year-old, a full-time job and no money. OK, so the money isn't Angelina's problem. But please, maybe she's actually trying to be a mom and hold down a job and it's wearing her thin - literally.
End of rant.
