Angelina Jolie, Marie Claire interview: “I don’t really have girlfriends”

Angelina Jolie has confessed during an interview with U.S. Marie Claire that there is at least one thing missing in her life – female friends.

In the interview with the new issue of Marie Claire, Angelina Jolie spoke frankly to the magazine about her lack of female confidantes.

“It was nice for me to play with other girls; I don’t really have girlfriends in movies, if you’ve noticed,” she said.

“Well, I have a few girlfriends, I just… I stay at home a lot. I’m just not very social. I don’t do a lot with them, and I’m very homebound.”

Angelina Jolie, actress, director and mother-of six, who looks stunning in a blue top and gold statement ring, has previously bemoaned the fact that she really only chats with her partner, Brad Pitt.

“I’ll talk to my family,” Angelina Jolie said.

“I talk to Brad … But I don’t know, I don’t have a lot of friends I talk to. He is really the only person I talk to.”

Angelina Jolie‘s reputation as the ultimate man-eater and husband-stealer may account for her lack of gal pals.

The actress famously enticed Brad Pitt away from his wife, Jennifer Aniston, and her second husband Billy Bob Thornton broke off his engagement to Laura Dern to elope with his Pushing Tin co-star.

One of the few close female friends that is not deterred by Angelina Jolie’s reputation is singer Gwen Stefani.

Earlier this year Angelina Jolie were spied with Gwen Stefani getting together at Gwen’s home in London for a fun-filled playdate .

“All of the kids are very close in age. They’ve attended each other’s birthday parties and gotten together several times at each other’s homes,” a source to Yahoo news at the time.

Angelina Jolie and Gwen Stefani have been friends since 1998.

“Somehow Gwen and I keep ending up pregnant at the exact same time,” Angelina Jolie has explained.

Best known for action films such as Lara Croft: Tomb Raider, Mr. & Mrs. Smith and Wanted, Angelina Jolie also reveals that she may want to move on from acting.

“I woke up one day realizing, God, I’m an actor,” she said.

“I don’t think I intended to be an actor. I think my mother wanted it for me.

“I loved telling stories, and I enjoyed the profession, but is it too late to be something else?”

When asked whether she and partner Brad Pitt were planning to extend their already considerable brood, she would only say: “Nothing planned at the moment, but we just don’t know. I could end up pregnant.”

Angelina Jolie credits Brad Pitt with helping her juggle her career with raising children.

“I have a wonderful partner in Brad and we take turns working always,” the actress said in the interview.

Angelina Jolie also touched on the subject of her children wanting her to marry long-term love Brad Pitt, 47.

“They have mentioned it, yes,” the actress admitted.

The star also opened up about her daughter Vivienne being a “girly girl”, divulging: “She is so elegant and delicate. Vivi will pick flowers from the garden and put them in her hair.

“She likes to get her nails done and collects stuffed animals.”

Angelina Jolie added: “It’s very funny for me to have to buy all things pink and watch princess movies!”

“Knox is very much a dude. Very physical, tough. He loves dinosaurs and swords.”

Angelina Jolie also gushed about her happiness saying: “Brad has expanded my life in ways I never imagined. We built a family. He is not just the love of my life, he is my family. I hold that very dear.

“I suppose what I’ve learned from Brad is to be able to have the kind of family whose happiness and well-being comes before your own.

“I’m very, very grateful to have such a loving family, and I wouldn’t have that without him.”

Speaking about the subject of her film Angelina Jolie said: “I think it’s still hard to understand what happened and how it could happen 40 minutes away from Italy in the ’90s at the time Schindler’s List came out.”

Explaining the inspiration for the movie Angelina Jolie said: “It began as a private exercise, an excuse to get out some of my frustrations with international community and justice issues.

“Some of the very darkest sections of the film were conceived in Shiloh’s art class; I was in the back waiting for the kids to finish.”

Angelina Jolie has also revealed she plans to do another war film focusing on Afghanistan, where she made humanitarian trips to recently.

In the Land of Blood and Honey is is scheduled to be released in the United States on December 23.
