Angelina Jolie’s godmother is a Hollywood legend – and they have the sweetest relationship


Jacqueline Bisset is a movie icon
Angelina Jolie grew up in the spotlight with her famous parents – actors Jon Voight and Marcheline Bertrand – and she’s also the goddaughter of a Hollywood legend. Following Angelina’s birth in 1975, British actress Jacqueline Bisset was named her godmother, a title that she’s proudly embraced ever since. Keep reading for all the details…

Who is Angelina Jolie’s famous godmother Jacqueline Bisset?Born in Surrey in 1944, Jacqueline Bisset began her acting career in 1965, before coming to prominence in 1968 with roles in The Detective, Bullitt, and The Sweet Ride. Throughout her decade-spanning career, the British star has been nominated for four Golden Globe Awards and an Emmy Award.
Among her many notable roles, Jacqueline has starred in Airport (1970), Murder on the Orient Express (1974), The Deep (1977), Dangerous Beauty (1998), Here and Now (2018), and Birds of Paradise (2018).

In a milestone moment, the actress also received France’s highest honour – the Legion of Honour – in 2010. Former President Nicolas Sarkozy presented Jacqueline with the award, referring to her as “a movie icon.”
What have Jacqueline Bisset and Angelina Jolie said about each other?While Jacqueline cherishes her role as Angelina’s godmother, the A-lister has never considered having children of her own. In a 2013 interview with Mail Online, she said: “I always had cats and animals, so children were never really in my thoughts.”

Jacqueline first crossed paths with Angelina’s mother, Marcheline, while co-starring alongside her husband, Jon Voight, in the thriller The End of the Game. Reflecting on their first meeting, Jacqueline told People: “I met her around 1971 when I was making a movie with director Maximilian Schell and Jon Voight, who [Marchline] was married to at the time. We became friends, and she asked me to be her godmother when Angie was in the tummy.”
Prior to Marcheline’s passing in 2007, she and Jacqueline had maintained a close friendship, often attending red carpet events together, with Angelina in tow. On one occasion, the trio revealed just how in sync they were after stepping out at the Los Angeles premiere of Angelina’s film Original Sin (2001) in coordinating outfits.

“We all turned up wearing white dresses, and it was absolutely unplanned,” Jacqueline recalled to People. “Completely unplanned. That was actually goofy that we’re all wearing white.”
Following Marcheline’s death, Jacqueline and Angelina have remained in each other’s orbit. Back in 2019, the Mr & Mrs Smith star was spotted walking with her godmother in Paris, and they had another twinning moment in striped ensembles.
Speaking about her relationship with Angelina, in 2021, Jacqueline raved about the actress to People. “I find her rather extraordinary,” she said “Her whole aura is breathtaking, and it’s amazing how much she’s changed in different stages [of life]. She’s evolved so much.”

‘I am officially off the market’: When Margot Robbie revealed she made the ‘conscious’ decision of not dating actors


Margot Robbie revealed her decision to not date actors because of the media scrutiny that came with a public relationship of two high-profile actors
Back in 2015, A-lister Margot Robbie made a declaration that she would not be dating any actors. The actress may have alluded to her fiance Tom Ackerley, who she married the following year in 2016. In an exclusive interview with Marie Claire, she revealed that being in a relationship as an actor herself came with its own set of challenges. She believed that dating someone who was popular would add on to the media scrutiny.

Margot Robbie opened up on why she made a conscious decision to not date actorsTalking to Marie Claire, she claimed, “I am officially off the market.” She then shared the reasoning behind her decision and added, “I made a conscious decision not to date actors.” She continued to explain, “But not because I hate actors. That’s a nasty generalization to make, and that’s not the case. People take such an interest in your love life when you have a profile, it puts a lot of stress on a relationship.”
The Barbie actress continued, “So two people with profiles, I figure it’s just double the amount of scrutiny, and I’d like to avoid that at all costs.” This came after reports of her locking lips with Tarzan co-star Alexander Skarsgard started making rounds. It was reported that she was caught kissing the actor during the Sundance Film Festival.

Margot Robbie revealed she opted for a minimal lifestyle even after becoming an actorIn the interview, Robbie also opened up about how she was adapting to fame. She shared, “I have a normal 24-year-old life. If I were a waitress, I’d probably have the exact same lifestyle. I’d go to the same clubs I go to already, live in the same house with the same housemates, hang out with the same people.”
However, Margot Robbie tied the knot with Tom Ackerley who is an English producer and actor. The duo met on the sets of 2013 movie Suite Francaise where Tom was working as an assistant director. Post marriage, both of them launched their production company LuckyChap Entertainment.

‘Rocky’ Was Quite Different In His Original Screenplay, Sylvester Stallone Claims


Sylvester Stallone took his friend’s advice on a rewrite of the original screenplay to Rocky. A few tweaks later, he was on his way to major success.
In the new Netflix documentary Sly, Stallone discussed how he initially conceived of the project, which had a much harder edge. In the early version, Rocky was depicted as a “thuggish” character, inspired by Martin Scorsese’s crime drama, Mean Streets.

But Stallone’s perspective changed when a friend read the script and thought the boxer was too cruel for audiences to actually care about him.
Stallone recalled her crying.

“She goes, ‘I hate Rocky. I hate him. He’s cruel. He hits people. He beats them up.’”
Stallone took it to heart, and asked what he could do to soften the character.

“I said, ‘what if you stop short of it?’ Like, maybe he almost did. He could have, that’s his job, but he doesn’t?’ ‘That’d be nice,’” he added. “I said, ‘What if he had a girlfriend or something?’ ‘Yeah, that’s nice.’ So I go back, start writing that: ‘Girlfriend. Nice.’”
$117 million in box office later, a franchise was born.

Stallone also revealed that actor Dolph Lundgren sent him to the hospital during one fight scene in Rocky IV.
“Dolph Lundgren… he pulverized me,” Stallone says in the documentary. “Later that night, my heart started to swell—which happens when the heart hits the chest—and then my blood pressure went up to 260, and they thought I was going to be talking to angels. Next thing I know, I’m in intensive care, where I’m surrounded by nuns, and I thought, ‘OK, that’s curtains.’”
Stallone was in the hospital for nine days following the incident, praying for “one more round.”
“For the first minute of the fight, it is going to be a free-for-all,” Stallone told Lundgren. The Swedish actor joked in a separate interview that all he did was “obey orders,” explaining, “[Stallone] was the boss. I did what he told me.”
Doctors allegedly told Stallone that he received a blow to the ribs that made his heart rattle around in his ribcage, a condition typically seen in head-on collisions. “I did hit a bus, of sorts,” Stallone joked.
