Angelina Jolie Comic Book Biography

Angelina Jolie’s life is getting the comic book treatment.

The 35-year-old actress is the latest celebrity to be turned into a sketched character for Bluewater Productions’ wildly-popular Female Force series. The mother of six has been immortalized between the covers of a 32-page comic book that chats about her rise to fame and life with actor and partner Brad Pitt and their kids; Maddox, 9, Pax, 7, Zahara, 6, Shiloh, 4, and two-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne. The graphic tale — hitting comic book shelves for $3.99 on Wednesday — will also talk about Jolie’s diverse range of movie roles, including her roles in Gia and Girl, Interrupted, as well as her tireless work for charity.

“I learned a great deal about her struggles and triumphs as an actress, mother and humanitarian. Often painted as an edgy, slightly dangerous movie star, what is often not revealed about Ms. Jolie is her tireless commitment to charity work and her dedication to the plight of refugees around the world as a Goodwill Ambassador with the United Nations,” says Brent Sprecher, who wrote the Nuno Nobre-illustrated comic.

The Female Force series debuted in 2008 to showcase the accomplishments of strong and influential women who are shaping modern history and culture. Previous issues of the series have featured Michelle Obama, Hillary Clinton, Oprah Winfrey, Ellen DeGeneres, Margaret Thatcher, J.K. Rowling and Sarah Palin. Other stars set to star in their own Female Force comic books later this year include Beyonce Knowles and Betty White!

“We’re focusing our biography titles on the most intriguing celebrities, world leaders and artists,” says Bluewater president and founder Darren G. Davis. “This is by design. We want to bring new fans to comics. One way to do this is to publish biographies on celebrities that already have strong and dedicated fan bases.”

Enrique Iglesias Not an Opening Act for Britney Spears

The latest piece of musical news flashes that Enrique Iglesias scratched off his name for the scheduled joint tour with Britney Spears.

RadarOnline warns that those who looked forward to the Britney Spears and Enrique Iglesias tour will be disappointed, for the Spanish star cancelled his participation several hours after it had been announced.

The first public notification of the joint tour was made on Tuesday just before Spears’ much-expected appearance on Good Morning America, but the Spanish pop singer had second thoughts about it soon afterwards. His rep released an official statement to the effect that though preliminary discussions of the run had allowed for the joint tour announcement, Enrique Iglesias was sorry to say that the tour is not to be in spite of the highest regard in which Iglesias holds Spears’ work.

No reasons for the decision were cited, apart from the information that Iglesias’ solo tour in support of his 2010 bilingual album Euphoria will be proceeding as scheduled.

Live Nation that is promoting the tour had to react with an official media statement denying Iglesias’ participation.

Billboard has some more light to shed on the incident. The tour featuring two world-famous artists was supposed to draw a lot of attention, and there were plans for Iglesias (who is touring Europe now) to take full production of his part of the performance in order to be more than just an opening act – which is rather a cumbersome and expensive endeavor.

Iglesias, according to Billboard, backed out because he didn’t like the idea to be any kind of an opening act.

No baby plans for Vanessa Minnillo yet

You can’t say, ‘I don’t think I want to deal with you today.’ No, they’re there!”

The 21-year-old Country star was greeted outside the hotel by fans, some of whom had 13 emblazoned on the back of their hands, like Swift herself, who believes the number brings her good luck.

Swift, who is currently in London on the European leg of her Speak Now World Tour 2011, is performing at the O2 Arena in the city tonight.

Earlier today she tweeted:

"I can't believe we get to play at the O2 in London tonight! I'm so excited, I'm wearing my beloved panda sweater."

On March 24, Swift announced an extension to the North American leg of her tour with 16 more dates. She now has 78 shows in stadiums and arenas in 63 cities in 42 states and provinces in the US and Canada this year.

The North American tour starts May 27 in Omaha right after her final European performance at the O2.

Sing on, Taylor.

Katrina Kaif upset over Sonakshi Sinha’s false claims

Newbie Sonakshi Sinha is making more enemies than friends in the industry. News has it that she has miffed Katrina Kaif big time. Apparently, Kat has not been too pleased with the ‘Dabangg’ hottie’s claims.

Junior Shotgun has been telling one and all about how she has replaced queen bee Katrina as the brand ambassador of numerous products. But according to sources close to Katrina, Sonakshi hasn’t replaced the ‘Tees Maar Khan’ star. The truth is that Katrina`s contract with these products had either expired or she was not even their brand ambassador.

The two ladies also have another common factor between them-Salman Khan. Both the actress have been launched by the magnanimous star. And the ex-ladylove of Sallu never approved of his fondness for Sonakshi.

Well, Katrina has nothing to lose as she is at a good place in her career today, but the big question is, can Sonakshi afford to have enemies in the industry so early in her career?
