Angelina Jolie on Adopting in Haiti - CNN Exclusive

[Fulscript]

Angelina Jolie adopts a child: appears in CNN, she is good, she's helping a family, a great woman.

Sean Penn donates his money: he isn't showed on TV, he is a communist, he is helping Chávez, he is a traitor, he doesn't do anything for the people, he is a bad actor...

Come on people.

[karmicsam]

u can say wathever else you want.Dont say he s a bad actor .Come on

[SonicCloo]

As someone who was adopted, I think the mentality of whether or not you should adopt should be whether or not you want a child. If you think you want to adopt because you want to 'save' a child, then quite honestly, I think that child will face some difficult identity crisis' when he or she is older. I've gone through it personally, and quite honestly, it was the hardest part of my adolescence. Add fame, money, & overwhelming sympathy, the environment might not be the greatest for a growing kid.

[asian897]

@SonicCloo Yes I so agree! If people adopt only on the basis that they want to "save a life," then that's going to be really hard on the child. They're probably going to grow up wondering if they were wanted as an individual or if they were just adopted because their adoptive parents wanted to do a charitable thing.

As an adoptee myself I have struggled with this. When adoptees are only adopted because people pity them, the child is probably going to grow up questioning their worth.

[pisspea2008]

@Maddog1301 - if you really want to do something to help out, just go to the nearest MLK Avenue or Street and I'm sure there are lots of poor people who need assistance. Be it giving them a few bucks for groceries, taking them to do errands or pick up welfare checks, maybe even tutor them or teach them to read or use a computer. I'm sure you will figure something out since you care so much ...

[larlar752000]

People let her adopt how many kids she wants its helping them...

[shazada02]

all who think negative about her, you are ignorant. if she is helping them kids that have no future at all. what is wrong in that? the children orphanage in US is alot better than the one in Africa, or any other countries. if you can't watch her do this. why don't you guys step up then and do something about it. ;)

[retardno002]

She has such a nice, big heart. Two actually. And i'd like to squeeze them both!

[alanlol101]

@Platikum Isn't that better than them living poor lifes?

[phantomrider1617]

She has enough. Besides she has her own kids she gave birth to.

[xJustJohnny]

I'm pretty sure she can have as many kids as she wants.

[makesmelaugh19]

like she needs anymore kids

[AmmarVII]

An ANGEL lives in earth !!

[manulasat]

May nik name best friends smale heppy free party pies love heart tu you smale beautiful (sexy wome) baby is daar rust, vreden in leven.

[darkness8920032002]

I hear some jealousy! ! lmao go fuck your selves ! your just mad cause you cant be her!

[wutchamacallit]

cuz children in America are considered lucky compared to those in third-world countries such as Myanmar, Haiti, and Somalia. Google any of those countries. a lot of us Americans take too much for granted, such as running water.

[bobino2468]

@Rachman1337 wheres your proof? quit tearing others down to build yourself up u piece of shit.

[BUNNYBUTT1984]

TRUE !

[XXdenilXX]

@hando88c thats not true..she has a big heart

[rhinohippo]

why must some people be so full of drama that they have to help others to be seen by people as good and caring. Help people yes, but do it discretely

[F0Xhound009]

she works for the United Nations and is a top name celeb, there's almost no way for her to do things without people knowing

[dayrOFtiger]

right on angelina! u tell her

[Valevitmichael]

Aww!. She's a nice person. Just as MJ, but, he was better, hihihihi. Please, guys, give a helping hand, donate and even adopt if you can! Only you can help them, do all you can, Haiti needs your help... I<3MJ

[PivotSaga]

Thank God (fictional character) that she's not adopting another kid.

[RussianEmpress]

At least she has the guts to care for more than one human life. An unselfish and worthy act, and morally good in my opinion. We need more like her in this world.

[ESPSAlita]

@RussianEmpress She's a celebrity interested in boosting her cred. We have plenty like her: Oprah, Madonna, Paris Hilton, etc. But these are all the "beautiful" people. No one cares when someone like Jimmy Carter dedicates his life to human beings. We just make fun of his ex-presidency because he doesn't have great tits and silicone injected lips. Audrey Hepburn gave up her career to dedicate her life to philanthropy. And she didn't go on talk shows to chat about it. She was simple and elegant.

[brambleshadow2]

@ESPSAlita Even if she is boosting her creds AT LEAST she is doing something and not JUST talking about it. I think thats still better than some celebrity just doing nothing :/

[tiervexx]

@Rachman1337, making wild assumptions about the motivations of people you don't know really just makes you look jealous.

[Rycon973]

she's awesome

[VashDrinks]

Atleast she answered the question smartly, despite it having a growing, negative connotation behind it.

Why would it be so bad if she adopted more children anyway? Individuals with money spend it however they want to, and if she wants to use her's to raise more children it shouldn't be seen as a Hollywood scheme or social taboo.

Think about how much money you waste on cigarettes, phones...gas? She's helping raise the next generation.

[talehaa]

@aiongah ...You need to learn to speak proper english before spreading negative rumours on here, Especially about someone who is obviously helping to make this terrible situation better, while you, obviously, are not.

[sarangjogi]

beautiful girl, also doin the right thing shawty

[th3FORM]

my love

[MitchTheHItman]

thanks for the help and love

[Johndavis4542]

why do people say things about her? she seems pretty wholesome to me

[bobino2468]

@Johndavis4542 people are just petty, and losers use the anonimity of the net.

[Valovill]

@bv90andy you have no idea what misfortunate children all over the world would give to have their "roof and food" idk why people are complaining,this woman after all gives the children she's adopting a 1000000000000% better life than they'd have otherwise

[gemzkee]

for the the kids who lives in poor country, the first thing they need are basically food and shelter.. the children that angie adopted are very fortunate to have her and have what they will never get if they continued to be where  they before the adoption..

[gemzkee]

oh and yes she isn't thinking of adopting, she's just there to help..

[kEITHMARIAH22]

I hate to say I told ya so but, I did .I said that right after the earthquake" the new in thang in Hollywood would be abopting a Hatian"and I think she is there 4 one reason and that's because she cares.We need more people like her . ...and do I think she will adopt one or two.....Hell Yes!

[brambleshadow2]

She is like the only celeb thats truly helping ppl constantly! Shes been adopting and supporting children for a while and has set a good example! Now all we need are the other stars to put in their share instead dancing in barely any clothes...

[brambleshadow2]

@666moneygreen She is obviously trying to help children in need that are already alive. Its called "Caring For Someone Other Than Yourself"

[666moneygreen]

I hope your not calling me selfish because its sure sounds like it, you don't know me, I go to church every Sunday

[razorlalala]

so wad if u go to that cursed place? it doesnt make any difference. it just makes u someone who fails in life and need an invisible support.

[Amanda65619]

Are we supposed to take your church going as proof of you not be selfish? The regular church goers I know, are some of the most selfish people I've ever met. You aren't helping yourself any by pointing that out. If it's even true, which I doubt considering your display name contains "666".

[brambleshadow2]

@666moneygreen I wasnt calling u selfish chill! And church doesnt make u less selfish. I am saying she is doing a good thing and y does she have to have children if she doesnt want to? She wants to help people and i think thats friggin awesome. If you have a problem w/ that then u r a selfish bitch.

[ESPSAlita]

@brambleshadow2 And you're a judgemental idolater. But we all have our faults.

[brambleshadow2]

@ESPSAlita Yea im the judgmental one. I was commenting to YOUR judgmental comments.

[KimberleeNewYork]

I LoVe you Angelina keep doing GREAT things!

LoVe Kimberlee :)

[memonkeydo]

shes not trying to adopt. shes making a statement about helping the haitian.

[starwydady]

with no offense to Angelina Jolie . I'm a fan of her but this ain't just about adopting

It's a political concept ... She's trayin to get herself a place between the celebrities hen she relizes that the press have forgotten about her

sorry for language .

[runtubefantasy]

she's not thinking about adopting.

[IDromikk]

great South Park material. it just keeps coming and coming.

[79506170]

wow how many kids do they have? and how many are their own groin and how many adopted? good they help so many kids.

[TheCyoruk]

oh the lips..

[aeon23]

World Peace: If you defend war, then you are wrong. This isn't an opinion, it's a fact. Peace isn't a political concept...it's a moral concept. Those who search for peace, through peaceful means, WILL find it. Those who search for peace, through acts of war, WILL only find war. LASTING peace can not be achieved through war. The brief period between the end of one war and beginning of another war is not peace. When the fear of war is vanquished, then and only then will there be PEACE.

[aeon23]

Thank you

[mywords4u]

Beautiful thinking. war brings only destruction in the cloak of a solution. We need to understand voilence will only bring more voilence sooner or later.

[aeon23]

I agree

[LeeroyFan101]

Makes you wonder...

Did you state the obvious that pretty much had nothing to do with the video whatsoever just because you were bored.

or did you do it to fish for compliments.

I mean really? war is bad. Oh wow such a revelation, I know I'm being a dick but really someone had to say it.

[chukwuemeka23456]

@LeeroyFan101 ...and you would say that on a VIDEO talking about HAITI!!!!! RACIST!!!!!!!!!!!!!! O.O

[GirlzRule4563]

Adopt me!..... JK..... im already adopted...lol

[ciarafan]

me too lol

[GirlzRule4563]

really....well i really missed my parents!

[ciarafan]

yeah imiss my mom :[ dnt kno my dad so forget him

[elsu3]

ADOPT ME .. LOL  :P

[Eceoes]

Wow you are an asshole. She did some great things, and have helped and saved childrens lives,and you call her a whore and call those children unfortunate.

Dude, you are an ass.

[FernandoTorresLover4]

@rocksronaldo

u should calm down, i agree that its pretty slutty to fuck someone in a movie, and she did this a great couple of times, but wtf dude, i dont care who she sleeps with, shes a nice and kind humanbeing and thats all that matters in this situation, u should think before u comment, u just sound like a dumbass, hope u know.

[Eceoes]

Ummm that is kind of shallow on your part. First off she looks really nice, but her purpose is to help support Haiti, not to look nice.

[buffysummers5]

just because u are helping people doesnt mean u have to stop looking good

[Eceoes]

Yeah but if you go off and say that "she let herself go" either saying that she is fat or less attractive is shallow and very asshole like. People should appreciate her for her actions, not her looks, even though I think she is one of the most attractive people in the world.

[Jibbie49]

@TheRocknRollZebra She's there to help save children's lives and NOT to be glamorous.

[cutieface2007]

if i was rich like her i would do the same thing

[Fulscript]

I would DONATE some money. It would help a lot of families, not just ONE kid.

[Mgrulz818]

@TheRocknRollZebra What are you talking about? She's in Haiti she's not going to get dressed up to help people.

[MJFAN091015]

What she is speaking is correct. I think that I see how matters stand very calmly.

[iiiaxel]

I got to agree she gives really good answers for every questions asked, truly an inspiration

[thequeenlives]

FINALLY!!!.......REAL journalism!

....Angelina is one caring, intelligent and extremely beautiful woman. Not an inch of make-up on......
