jolie crazy The Angelina Jolie Media Contract...

Here’s the contract that Angelina Jolie tried to get reporters to sign in advance of interviewing her in connection with “A Mighty Heart,” the star’s new movie about murdered Wall Street Journal reporter Daniel Pearl. The document, drafted by Jolie’s overzealous Los Angeles lawyer, triggered a boycott from several media outlets that refused to sign such a restrictive agreement. The document warned that any violations of its stipulations would cause “irreparable harm” to the 32-year-old actress and that she could seek to enforce its terms “by injunction or other equitable relief.” Jolie, who apparently was not willing to address questions about Brad Pitt and their familial brood, subsequently backed down on her demands in the face of a journalist revolt (the movie’s New York City premiere benefited Reporters Without Borders, a press freedom group). This is the not first time, however, that Jolie has tried to restrict the use of interviews.
