JOLIE BEAUTIFUL

ANGELINA JOLIE is using her newfound popularity in Asia to her advantage, by appearing in three beauty campaigns for Shiseido. Having travelled there extensively through her role as a UN Goodwill Ambassador, Jolie endeared herself further to the continent by adopting two orphans - one from Vietnam and one from Cambodia - in 2007 and 2002 respectively. According to WWD, the actress flew to Hollywood Studios two weeks ago where she was shot for the Shiseido ads by beauty photographer Camilla Akrans. Although the US and UK will never see the images - they will be shown only in Japan - Jolie will appear on billboards and in glossy magazines from September to promote the brand's powder and liquid eyeshadows. Currently in Prague making her new film, Wanted, co-starring Morgan Freeman and James McAvoy, Jolie is said to be very happy about the new beauty campaign.
