Angelina Jolie’s incredible beauty was captured by Mario Testino for the pages of Vanity Fair’s December issue.And now the legendary photographer has taken fans behind-the-scenes of their shoot.Mario posted two snapshots of Angelina on Instagram, including one very artistic picture taken in the reflection of a window.The actress can be seen smouldering in a white gown with silver trim, with her chestnut brown hair in an updo, as the photographer clicks away from behind his camera.The pair appear to be in a luxurious hotel suite, and a glistening swimming pool is outside the window.Before they got to work, Angelina and Mario enjoyed breakfast together on a rooftop and, never off-duty, the photographer couldn’t resist capturing the moment.Mario took a stunning black-and-white image of the 39-year-old grinning up at him after tucking into a plate of food.Angelina looked gorgeous as always in a cosy black knit jumper with winged black eyeliner, and her glossy tresses swept back.‘With the amazing Angelina,’ Mario captioned the photo. ‘She always surprises me with what she is doing. Acting, directing, raising children, being a wife etc. etc! And always looking great and giving great energy.’Images from the shoot were unveiled last week, and Angelina Jolie can be seen on the cover in a casual white shirt with several buttons left undone.An inside photo shows her clad in a white gown which clings to her every curve, and is taken from behind with the Maleficent star looking over her shoulder.In an interview for the magazine Angelina admitted it ‘does feel different’ being married to Brad Pitt, and added that it ‘feels nice to be husband and wife’.The longtime partners surprised the world by revealing they had tied the knot in a surprise ceremony at their French estate on August 23, and they got their six children to write the wedding vows.'They did not expect us never to fight, but they made us promise to always say, "Sorry," if we do,’ Angelina recalled. ‘So they said, "Do you?" and we said, "We do! "’The star, who got her start in Tomb Rader, said she is ‘open’ to a career in politics, after all of her charity work, but admits her Hollywood career could prevent this from becoming a reality. 'When you work as a humanitarian, you are conscious that politics have to be considered. Because if you really want to make an extreme change, then you have a responsibility,' she said.'But I honestly don’t know in what role I would be more useful— I am conscious of what I do for a living, and that [could] make it less possible.'

She has won an Oscar and regularly conquers the box office — so how hard could winning an election be? Globe-trotting Hollywood do-gooder Angelina Jolie hints in a new interview that she’s ready to enter politics.“When you work as a humanitarian, you are conscious that politics have to be considered. Because if you really want to make an extreme change, then you have a responsibility,” Jolie, 39, tells Vanity Fair’s December issue.“I honestly don’t know in what role I would be more useful — I am conscious of what I do for a living, and that [could] make it less possible,” said Jolie, director and a special envoy for the UN High Commissioner for Refugees.Pushed further, she admitted, “I am open” to pursing politics.Jolie — who directed the upcoming film “Unbroken,” about Olympian-turned-war hero Louis Zamperini — also dished on tying the knot with Brad Pitt, her partner of 10 years.“It does feel different,” she said. “It feels nice to be husband and wife.”The pair got hitched in the South of France in August, and Jolie said their six children lent a hand.“There was no cake, so Pax made a cake,” she said, referring to their second-oldest son.“The kids made little pillows for the rings, and Knox practiced [being a ringbearer] with an acorn that kept falling off the pillow. Brad’s mom went and picked some flowers and tied them up.”
She said their kids wrote her and Pitt’s vows.“They did not expect us never to fight, but they made us promise to always say ‘sorry’ if we do. So they said, ‘Do you?’ and we said, ‘We do!’ ” Jolie said.She noted both she and Pitt worked on war movies at the same time recently with Pitt on the World War II tank thriller “Fury” and her on “In the Land of Blood and Honey.”They sent each other notes in the mail to replicate World War II GIs would received letters from loved ones back home, she said.She broke down in tears discussing the true story behind “Unbroken,” due out next month, and Zamperini’s incredible tale of survival.Zamperini, who ran in the 1936 Berlin Games, flew in the Air Force and was shot down over the Pacific. He floated at sea for 47 days before he was captured and sent to a Japanese POW camp.“It was an extremely emotional experience, to watch someone watching their own life … someone so physically strong … and they are at the stage where their body is giving up,” she said.

BRITISH couturiers Ralph & Russo told us exclusively today what an "honour" it was to dress Angelina Jolie as she collected her honorary damehood from the Queen. The filmmaker and philanthropist was awarded the honour at Buckingham Palace on Friday for her campaigning to fight sexual violence and for services to UK foreign policy.Jolie wore a skirt suit from the label's spring/summer 2014 collection, which originally appeared on the catwalk in red. She requested that the two-piece be remade in a subtle dove grey, and wore it with matching peep-toe pumps."It was an absolute honour for Angelina Jolie to ask us to create her outfit for such a momentous and meaningful event," the label's co-founder and designer Tamara Ralph told us. "With Ralph & Russo being a British couture house, it was befitting that she chose to wear one of our creations to Buckingham Palace. The dove-grey wool-crêpe suit was perfectly suited to the occasion; simple, elegant and refined." Jolie has worn Ralph & Russo on numerous previous occasions, while Cheryl Cole selected a dress from the label to wear to her post-wedding party in London this summer. Although London-based, Ralph & Russo will show for the first time in London this week when it becomes the subject of the V&A's Fashion In Motion this Friday, following in the footsteps of designers including Alexander McQueen, Yohji Yamamoto and Jean Paul Gaultier.
