Angelina Jolie, who won an Oscar for 1999's "Girl, Interrupted," says she wants to be remembered for her humanitarian work. "I have no animosity toward Hollywood or the demands of the red carpet, all that silliness," Jolie, 32, tells Esquire magazine in its upcoming July issue. "That's my job, and I'm happy to have it.
But when I die, do I want to be remembered as an actress? No." "I recently had an Op-Ed (column) published in a newspaper," she continues.
"And at the end, it didn't say I was an actress. It said that I was a U.N.
And I was really proud." Jolie, an activist for many issues, says she has found meaning as a citizen of the world. "I entered this business before I had focus and purpose in my life," says Jolie.
"I was very unhappy, very unhealthy, and when I sat down for an interview, I didn't know why. I felt like I didn't have anything to share." Today, her life is far from empty.
