Angelina Jolie was harmed by her ex-husband, revealing her 'goosebump-inducing' backup job, what's going on?

Angelina Jolie, the actress famous for her sharp beauty and acting talent, has just attracted attention when revealing that before her successful film career, she considered an unexpected career path: becoming a funeral director.

Appearing on The Tonight Show With Jimmy Fallon, Jolie - who recently showed off her new bird tattoo on her arm at the 2024 Gotham Awards - opened up about this special time in her life.

In a preview of the episode airing on December 5, Jimmy Fallon asked Jolie: "You're a brilliant actress, but I've heard about some other careers you thought about before acting. Did you ever want to be a funeral director?"

Jolie nodded in agreement and shared a touching story about why she was drawn to the profession: "My grandfather passed away, and I felt like the funeral wasn't the way it should have been. It should be a celebration of life, not sadness.

I'm not afraid of death, and I feel comfortable thinking about it. So I thought I could do this better, giving another meaning to sending off the deceased."

Fallon agreed with her sentiment, saying: “Death is not just an end, but an opportunity to celebrate life.

We need more people who think like that." Jolie laughed and added: "It's my backup job now." Currently, Angelina Jolie is focusing on promoting the Netflix biopic Maria, scheduled to be released on December 11.

The film, directed by Pablo Larraín, tells the story of the final days of Maria Callas, the world's greatest opera singer. The film, which premiered at the Venice International Film Festival, received positive reviews, raising hopes that Jolie will make her mark at the Oscars.

"Life gives you a lot of experiences, and that's what you put into each role," Jolie said. Besides her passion for art, Jolie also maintains her love and devotion to her family.

However, she is still facing prolonged legal tensions with her ex-husband, Brad Pitt, especially revolving around property disputes and relationship with children.

Previously, Brad Pitt won a three-year legal battle against his ex-wife, successfully defending his ownership of a $500 million vineyard. Page Six reported that a Luxembourg court (Belgium) declared Brad Pitt the winner of the final round of the trial in the case accusing Angelina Jolie of arbitrarily selling shares of the estate to Yuri Shefler - the owner of a giant wine company in Russia. The actor's lawyer argued that Angelina had intentionally taken over all ownership and "brought strangers into the house" by selling shares to outsiders.

The couple previously rented the Chateau Miraval vineyard in France in 2008 before purchasing the property in 2011. Initially, Brad Pitt owned 60% of the shares, Angelina Jolie held 40%. The two held a wedding ceremony at the estate in 2014. After the marriage, the actor transferred 10% to his wife as a wedding gift, equalizing the ownership ratio of both properties.

After the divorce, Angelina Jolie is said to have secretly sold her shares to a Russian partner. Brad Pitt believes that Angelina is not legally qualified because she still holds 60% of the ownership. The 60-year-old actor said that the agreement to transfer 10% to his ex-wife in 2014 was not official, so he wanted to get back the assets and maintain control. The Luxembourg court accepted this view and ruled that Brad Pitt could keep 60% of the shares for a year or more until the lawsuit was completely over.

Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt first met on the set of Mr. & Mrs. Smith (2005). At that time, the actor was in a relationship with Jennifer Aniston. In 2004, the two publicly announced their relationship and got married in 2014, together raising six children, including three adopted and three biological. In 2016, Angelina Jolie filed for divorce due to irreconcilable differences. Both fought for custody of the children, but Brad Pitt lost.
