Sneek Peek At Wednesday’s Dateline NBC/Today Show Interview With Angelina Jolie

Angelina Jolie sat down with Ann Curry to speak about her life in an interview scheduled to air on Wednesday on the ‘Today’ show and ‘Dateline NBC’

Here’s a preview of some of the interview:

Angelina on whether she’s aware of all the things written about her in the press:

“No. I mean, I can assume. I know there’s a cycle of certain things that they keep rewriting or whatever, but I can assume things are made up. But no, I haven’t a clue. (laughter) And why would I, you know? There’s nothing I have to hide or defend. You know, I’m gonna live my life. And there are gonna be times when people wanna try to attack me and I don’t know why, but they will. And that’s okay.”

Angelina on whether she’s concerned about bad press:

“Well, there are other things I’m more concerned about. My kids are healthy. I have a lot I want to do in this world. Before I do, I wanna do a lot of things as a woman, as a mom, and that’s my focus. At the end of the day, I’m gonna be dead… and what people say about me is gonna be what I accomplished and what I did in my life and how my children are.”

Angelina on — you guessed it — the press:

“I have always been honest about who I am, and I’ve always been very outspoken to press. I think people have heard a lot from me over the years. …[If] people wanna believe negative things, they will. … I can’t help that. I’m gonna be dead one day. And what people say about me is gonna be what I accomplished and what I did in my life and how my children are.”
