Angelina Jolie

I loved being Maleficent. I was quite sad to put my staff down and put my horns away because somehow, she just lives in a different world.

I prefer directing to acting. There is huge freedom that comes from being behind the camera. It brings a lot of responsibilities as well but is intensely rewarding.

I try to lead by example, being conscious of others and being responsible.

There's people constantly asking you for something on set, so the multi-tasking of motherhood transfers very well to being a director. And I think you're compassionate.

None of my kids want to be actors. They are actually very interested in being musicians. I think they like the process of film from the outside. Mad is interested in editing. Pax loves music and deejaying.

I'm a very private person. I don't go out much. I'm home with kids. I go to work. I don't really like being the focus of attention, which is why I like being behind the camera more.

Let's embrace being not normal!

Without Cambodia, I may never have become a mother. Part of my heart is and will always be in this country. And part of this country is always with me: Maddox.

He knows my limitations and where I'm a good wife and a good mom.

Men don't really like skinny, do they?

The boys know they're from Southeast Asia, and they have their food and their music and their friends, and they have a pride particular to them.

It's a great thing about being pregnant - you don't need excuses to pee or to eat.
