Andrew Morton Speaks Out On New Angelina Jolie Book
News broke yesterday about famed celebrity biographer Andrew Morton’s new book subject, Angelina Jolie. While we had sources confirm this to us a while back, Glosslip is like the Fort Knox of secrets and we keep ours close to the vest.
Andrew Morton, who made headlines in 2008 with his controversial unauthorized Tom Cruise biography, is embarking on what might be the biggest challenge in his literary career. And that’s saying something, considering Morton is the man behind the Princess Diana story, telling of her private pain as Princess of Wales, as well as having made a permanent enemy of Madonna by revealing her many controlling ways and exposing the behind the scenes secrets of Presidential mistress Monica Lewinsky. Morton has secured his place in the best-seller hall of fame with his series of thoughtfully researched (and unauthorized) biographies.
We were able to track down the reclusive writer and get a statement on this new book (which we CAN’T WAIT to read). When I asked Morton why he chose the relatively young, but attention-getting Jolie, Morton had this to say:
“AJ is one of the most fascinating women on the planet. Hers has been an extraordinary journey and it is an extraordinary story. I am looking forward to telling it.”
Short and sweet, but concise. Angelina, already known for her wild behavior, strange relationships and humanitarian work, became an international celebrity sensation when she was linked to mega star Brad Pitt (when he was still married!)
There has been endless speculation and fascination surrounding Jolie’s role in the demise of one of Hollywood’s golden couples, Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston, who divorced in 2005 coincidentally, after Pitt and Jolie teamed up to work on the hit movie, Mr. and Mrs. Smith.
Here’s more on the new project and Morton from the Telegraph:
Miss Jolie’s colourful life will provide plenty of material. Twice divorced, she has had a long-running feud with actor father Jon Voight and has adopted a string of children.Professionally, she has risen to become one of Hollywood’s leading actresses, starring in films including Lara Croft Tomb Raider, A Mighty Heart, The Good Shepherd and Changeling. It was on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith that she met her now partner, Brad Pitt, with whom she has adopted several children.
The couple are also famed for their humanitarian work in the world’s trouble spots and Miss Jolie is a UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador.
Mr Morton’s unauthorised book about the star will reportedly be produced by US publishing giant St. Martin’s Press next winter.
His previous work includes the 1992 exposé Diana, Her True Story, for which the Princess of Wales was later revealed to have been the main source.
More recently, a biography of Tom Cruise brought legal threats after Morton suggested the Top Gun star had tailored his life to helping further the cause of the Church of Scientology and had become its de-facto second-in-command.
Mr Cruise has vehemently denied Morton’s allegations
There is zero doubt that Morton will shed some much needed light into many of the untruths spread by Angelina Jolie’s PR machine and we should expect to find some secrets revealed about her and Brad’s intimate relationship, most especially, when it REALLY began and how far they were both willing to go to protect their reputations, while deftly throwing Brad’s ex, Jennifer Aniston under the bus!
Stay tuned for more on this book!

The same Andrew Morton that wrote the unauthorized biography of Tom Cruise and the same Andrew Morton that now says Tom Cruise is NOT gay?? Wow, can’t wait for a ‘washed down’ version of Angelina Jolie’s life!
Just saying.

Angelina’s past is already Well known, read any of her interviews to see she doesn’t care what people say.
This author does not know Angelina at all and so what in the world will he know about her?
Angelina does not have a publicist or an agent.
Angelina and Brad did not throw Jen under the bus, they did what made them happy which was starting a family.
While Jen fans continue to make her look Pathetic FOUR years and SIX kids later!

I’m with T’s comment. Morton exposed Scientology pretty well but totally whitewashed Tom Cruise. I think that Morton is gay and decided to cover for Cruise–which is better, in a way, than Perez Hilton and ianundercover who only live to out gays. So, I doubt that much of the real deal will be exposed regarding a–in my opinion–truly depraved and evil woman.

Angelina was an international star way before she got with Brad freaking Pitt. Tomb Raider 1 is the biggest box office Action flick ever with a WOMAN in the lead, the oscar, and her international humanitarian work is what made her an international star. The non stop tabloid coverage is what started when she got with brad. Brad Pitt was the one who only started his humanitarian work after he was labeled a cheater and a liar for dumping his ex wife. He didn’t start that humanitarian work until he met Angelina Jolie but people seem to overlook that fact.

He was said some mean things about Tom Cruise in his books but I bet anyone that he is going to kiss Angelina’s Ass and make a book to make her look like she did nothing wrong….well, if she paid him enough anyway.

I already heard that slutty ‘tattooist to the stars’ (that’s what SHE calls herself) is spilling the beans AGAIN about tattooing AJ’s vagina, etc. The same tattooist who claims she ‘adroitly serves up secret favors’ to celebs. It ain’t a secret if you tell every gossip columninist, then Andrew freaking Morton! Who is UBER TRASHY! Ick. Will not read this dreck!

Nobody has overlooked the fact that brad didn’t start this humanitarian stuff until he met angie. He adopts the personality, behanvior, mannerisms, etc of all the women he date. Pittiful is a pathetic loser. I agree with the last sentence of this article. That ass did whatever he had to do to save his reputation, even if it met destroying jennifer in the process. Also, angie wasn’t close to being as famous as she is now. This all started when she met pittiful. She has also played a big role in being a tabloid sensation. Putting her babies on the cover of magazines, photo-ops in stores and airports. These two are not all they pretend to be and I hope they are exposed for who they really are. But, she is probably behind this.

#2 You sound like the typical delusional brangeloonie. B/A being together FOUR YEARS and SIX KIDS later says NOTHING. People say together unhappily for longer years that 4 and more kids than 6. Nobody thought Brad and Jen would ever break up too. Hell, the very day before they announced their separation they were seen on a beach kissing. Everything isn’t alwasy as it seems. Btw, I know this is going to be sooooooooooooo hard for you to believe but everybody who doesn’t buy these two BS, is not a jennifer aniston fan. Shocking, I know.

I heard apparently that Angelina Jolie hooked up with Crooner Brian Evans when they were like 20 or something. He took her to something called “Book of Love”.
