Everything Angelina Jolie does appears to be an “oh, this old thing?” moment. She snatched Brad Pitt with a cavalier shrug, adopted a bunch of kids and yawned. So what happened when we (the Internet) found her Versace dress and coordinating “leg pose” at the Oscars hilarious?
She was, unsurprisingly, blasé about the whole thing. Or at least that’s what she’d have us believe. Here’s her response to the Huffington Post.
I honestly didn’t pay attention to it. You know what I mean? I don’t watch those TV shows and if I go online and see something about myself, I don’t click on it. And the people I surround myself with don’t really talk about that kind of stuff. [Laughs]. I heard something, but I didn’t pay any attention. It’s as simple as being a woman picking a dress you like and having a night, and not really thinking about anything else.
Yeah, Angie. We know what you mean. When every morning feels like a dreamlike surreality where you’re married to Brad Pitt? Gosh if I had a nickel for every day I felt like that. With so much sexy slinking around to do, who has time to worry about what the little plebes on their laptops thought was worth meme-ifying? Besides, she doesn’t surround herself with people who talk about that kind of thing.
Sorry, Angelina fans. Please forgive the snark. In my defense, I just thought her leg was hilarious. I thought the double-leg photoshop image was bloody brilliant. So yeah, I think she should have paid attention to it. It was freaking funny. Brad Pitt would’ve been able to laugh at himself. And Jennifer Anniston definitely would have. Just saying.
What do you think of Angelina Jolie’s ever-so-poised brush-off of the Oscar-leg meme? Did you find it as funny as I did when you saw it?

“yah, I posed like that on purpose and showed off my sexy leg for attention. now that I apparently have all of this attention for being so fabulous, and everybody is talking about me…I don’t care
(secretly looks into mirror and laughs like cruella deville later
)”

This is so dumb that I don’t even know why people are talking about it. It’s like “OMG Sarah Michelle Geller wor a tank top and I saw her bra strap” for real?! Who cares. She wore a dress, it showed her leg. It’s not hilarious it’s actually not worth noting and yet so many people did. The things that pass as internet entertainment these days keep getting dumber and dumber.

She looked absolutely stunning in that dress! xx

It just looks stupid when you photoshop it like that. I think it didn’t look /that/ crazy with her leg out there in the original pictures. I only would have noticed that it was kind of weird because people kept talking about it. Honestly people don’t have anything better to do?

Meh, I agree with the being able to laugh at herself thing. She comes off “above it all” with her comment, though admittedly we don’t know how she said it.
guest
it’s her own leg, why would she think it was so funny??
guest
hahaha i love angelina but the leg thing was ridiculous

@livinguntamed@xanga - But the funny thing is not the fact that she wore a dress that showed off her leg, plenty of women have done that… the funny thing was the pose. I did laugh when I saw her present the award, to be honest

HAHAHA DOUBLE LEG I totally thought that was real for a second and thought, “Well no shit you’re getting talked about if you’re doing a half-squat on the red carpet”
