Hollywood star Angelina Jolie has said that for her “nothing else matters” apart from motherhood because she`s devoted to her six kids Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and 16-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne.
During an appearance on `Good Morning America`, Angelina, who shares her children with former husband and Hollywood star Brad Pitt, spoke about playing opera star Maria Callas in new movie `Maria`, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
She was also asked if there`s anything in her life that compares to the late star`s love of singing and the actress replied: “My motherhood … It’s my happiness. You can take everything else away from me … Nothing else matters.”
Maddox and Pax have been working behind-the-scenes in the movie industry while Vivienne recently helped her mother put together Broadway show `The Outsiders` but the actress is rigid none of her kids want to be in the spotlight, reports femalefirst.co.uk.
She explained: “None of my children want to be in front of the camera at this time. They are quite private. Shiloh`s extremely private. They weren`t born with privacy, right? So I hope they can have that as they grow.”
It comes after the actress said winning an Oscar for her role in the biopic would be a bonus.
The actress, who already has an Academy Award for her role in 1999 psychological thriller `Girl, Interrupted`, had the “experience of a lifetime” starring in Pablo Larraín`s new film and although the Oscar hype is “very nice”, she feels like she has already been given “the greatest gift” of making a movie with an “extraordinary team of people” and anything else is a “dream”.
Talking about the Oscar buzz surrounding the film, she laughed to Best UK magazine: “It means a lot that somebody thinks you did a good job. Right? That means everything to me. That kind of stuff is exciting and very, very nice. But I`m just so happy we were able to do this film. I`m genuinely so happy.
“I know it sounds like people say this, but really, this was an experience of a lifetime. I learned to sing and I embodied a woman that I respect. I was able to work with this extraordinary team of people. I feel like I`ve already been given the greatest gift. The audience seemed to respond well to it. So, anything else is a dream, but I`m so grateful already.”
