Angelina Jolie's Only Slept With Four Men, She's Also A Math Whiz

In an interview with Cosmo magazine (UK edition) actress and humanitarian Angelina Jolie goes on the defensive about her "bad girl" reputation.

Angelina Jolie is stunned by her man-eating reputation, insisting she has only ever slept with four men. The star claims she has only had sex with current partner Brad Pitt, former husbands Billy-Bob Thornton and Johnny Lee Miller and one other nameless man.

She tells Britain’s Cosmopolitan magazine, “It was never true. I had only slept with four men in my life - and I married two of them."


While some may question the veracity of these statements, I choose to take them at face-value. But only if you do the math.

Statistics show that most people deflate the number of people they've slept with by a factor of 4, so that means she's really slept with 16 men. But you also need to factor into the equation that people in Hollywood lie at a rate of 50%. Which in simpler terms, means they lie 50% of the time. So if we split the difference with Angelina and assume that this time she might be telling the truth, that means there is a 25% chance she is lying and so we must multiply the 16 men she's slept with by .25%, which brings the number up to 20. Plus, there's the additional factor that in Hollywood everyone's slept with everyone, so for every one person you've slept with, you've really slept with approximately 500.

To further complicate matters, we must take into account Angelina's past history of falsehoods and her pattern of truth-telling. Angelina claims to have not begun a relationship with Brad Pitt until he ended his marriage with Jennifer Aniston. But recently, Brad Pitt revealed that he went to Jennifer Aniston while the two were still a couple and asked her how she wanted to handle his "outside influence" with Angelina Jolie. While I am no relationship expert, I think it's safe to assume that Brad was well aware of his attraction and compatibility with Angelina Jolie well before announcing to his wife of four years that he wanted out of his marriage so he could pursue a new relationship with Angelina.
