Angelina Jolie: Manipulative Mean Girl?

As could be expected, the release of “Brangelina: The Untold Story of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie” has stirred up all kinds of drama surrounding the “Fight Club” stud and his “Changeling” chick.

And the latest rumors say that Jolie manipulated her way into Brad’s life by waging “a mean-spirited but effective campaign” against his then-wife Jennifer Aniston.

Ian Halperin, the book’s author, claims that Ang, her brother James Haven, and her manager Geyer Kosinski began planting negative stories about Aniston in the press back in 2005 to begin putting strain on Pitt’s marriage.

The main story in question was that Jen cared more about her career than kids, which was opposite of what Brad wanted.  “Jolie was convinced that this is the story that would resonate with all these women who saw her as a man-stealing b**ch.”
