Angelina Jolie is reportedly among the most generous, kind and selfless celebrities in showbiz at the moment, being involved in countless charity projects, always taking the time to help others and, in short, doing everything she can to be a better person. Unfortunately, it’s nothing but a façade because the real Angelina is cold, cruel, and calculated to the extreme, Life&Style magazine claims, as reported by PopEater.

Amidst speculation that she’s looking to adopt another baby, this time from Syria and against the wishes of her better half, Brad Pitt, a source tells the aforementioned US tab - that Angelina’s goodie two-shoes image is just that: a carefully constructed image on which she’s been working for years and which, as it happens, has little to do with how she is in real life. Angelina Jolie is a “total fake,” the tipster reveals in the latest issue of the magazine.

“Angelina has mastered the ability to play the greatest role of her life – that of a doting mother and partner who’d do anything for humanity. But the truth is more complex,” the inside source reveals for the mag as to Jolie’s humanitarian preoccupations and often-voiced intentions to help as much as she can. Since she got together with Brad Pitt and started constantly increasing her brood, Jolie has been working hard to shift the focus from her personal life to these other aspects. “She manipulates and controls every aspect of her life,” says the tipster.

This also includes her relationship with Brad Pitt, which was a part of the grander scheme of things from the beginning as well. It was Angelina who pursued him even though she knew he was married – and happily, while we’re at it – and who eventually convinced him that divorcing Jennifer Aniston was the only way out. It was also she who made him believe them being together was fate, something they could not control and, most importantly, oppose.

“It was Angelina who convinced Brad that their relationship was just fine. She would tell him that what was happening between them was bigger than they were, that there was no way to deny it. Angie created a world where he was free of accountability and responsibility for another person’s feelings. She spent months convincing Brad they were destined to be together, that it couldn’t be wrong,” the same unnamed but reportedly very reliable source further says for the mag.
