Photos taken of Jolie in the 90s have emerged and for any of you with a fair amount of cash, prints are going on sale.We already have pictures of Angelina Jolie looking ridiculously beautiful; you only need to Google search to scroll through interminable numbers of them for free. But if you’ve got nearly £2,000 and an unchallengeable appreciation of her IMDB catalogue, you may purchase these new photos.Two extremely rare pictures of the star are going on sale today at London’s Zebra One Gallery. The beautiful images were shot by Kate Garner in 1995 just as Jolie was just getting attention from Hollywood directors, way before early cult film Girl, Interrupted exploded in 1999. According to the photographer, Jolie was fiercely independent in her direction of the shoot, tying her own legs together in an S&M pose with no instruction.“Angelina explored different poses without much direction from me,” explains Garner. “Including tying her legs together for what would become one of the most unique shots of her to ever be taken. She wasn’t afraid to experiment and be creative, which made for some absolutely beautiful photos."The photos were commissioned by ELLE US in an LA studio during the year she starred in her first slightly bigger movies, Hackers and Without Evidence.“I liked Angelina a lot, although it was a very conservative shoot,” says Garner. "She was quiet and incredibly intense, but she was also very gentle and extremely creative. She exuded class throughout, and knew how to put her own mark on it. It is still one of my favourite shoots.”She looks seriously good, right? The gallery will be selling a limited run of 50 prints pricedx at £1,800.

Kate Middleton’s Angelina Jolie Transformation: Royal Ditches Demure Wardrobe For High-Slit Dress, Queen Elizabeth Appalled?

Kate Middleton is on a mission to transform herself into the next Angelina Jolie. The Duchess of Cambridge dared to bare almost her entire leg in a high-slit dress that she wore on the red carpet during a movie premiere in London this week. The dress style resembles one that Angelina wore to the Oscars back in 2012. Now, Royal watchers are wondering if the Duchess of Cambridge is attempting to undergo an Angelina Jolie Transformation in an effort to generate buzz.Kate Middleton was on hand to help support the premier of the new film, ‘A Street Car Named Bob,’ wearing a $400 dress that featured a crochet bodice and a risqué split on one side, exposing the majority of her thigh. At one point during the night, Kate was even forced to keep her dress down with her purse before having another embarrassing wardrobe malfunction.Even though Kate knows that all eyes are going to be on her – more than any other star at the movie premiere – she also knows all too well that with one gust of wind she can lose her dignity. Regardless of that matter, she wore the dress because she’s desperate to be a celebrity of the same caliber as someone like Angelina Jolie. If exposing her leg worked for Angelina several years ago, it can surely work for Kate now, too.Simply put, Kate’s biggest dream was to never be a royal who dedicated her time and energy to her charities for most of her life. Instead, she wants to be on the cover of every magazine possible and, at the very least, be remembered as someone daring, sexy, and exciting like Angelina Jolie. Unfortunately, Kate simply doesn’t have the same sex appeal that comes so naturally for someone like Angelina.While Queen Elizabeth is absolutely fuming that Kate would even dare to wear such a high-slit dress on the red carpet, the Duchess secretly knows she needs to do something to put the media focus back on her, especially with all of the Prince Harry and Meghan Markle buzz making headlines.Sure, someone of Kate’s status and royal title should be keeping her wardrobe demure, but that’s the last thing the Duchess wants to do. The more desperate she is for media attention, the higher her slit will be. And without Prince William on the red carpet, Kate has all the cameras pointing at just her in all of her fame-hungry glory.Do you think Kate Middleton was inappropriately dressed? Is the Duchess trying a little too hard to look like a sexy but royal version of Angelina Jolie? Does this mean that Kate is daring to bare even more in public? Let us know your thoughts in our comments section below.

Amid the wild abuse allegations from Angelina Jolie’s camp about estranged husband Brad Pitt, a rare print of the actress with blood dripping from her mouth is for sale.The “Angelina With Blood” portrait — perhaps inspired by her previous penchant for wearing a vial of Billy Bob Thornton’s blood around her neck — was taken by Martin Schoeller in 2003 for his “Close Up” series, before Jolie got with Pitt.It will be offered for $60,000 by the Amstel Gallery during Nick Korniloff’s Art Miami in December.The seller has not been disclosed, but one art-world insider said, “Maybe Brad is cleansing his collection of all things Angelina.”
