Angelina Jolie believes parenthood is the most important thing in her life. The Oscar-winning actress thinks there are "too many" great aspects about being a mum to her six children - Maddox, 10, Pax, eight, Zahara, seven, Shiloh, five, and Knox and Vivienne, three - who she raises with Brad Pitt, her partner of six years.

When asked what she enjoys most about being a mother, the brunette beauty told Hollyscoop: "There are far too many things to count. But everything that matters in life has to do with being a parent."Angelina revealed she would "be a mom and travel more" if she didn't act in or direct movies and the 36-year-old beauty advises women to be themselves during their lives and not worry about what others have to say.

She added: "Be yourselves. Don't listen to what people say."Despite never tying the knot with Angelina, Brad has hinted he may be about to pop the question soon after being put under "pressure" to get married by their six kids which has led to him promising to buy her a ring. He explained: "We're getting a lot of pressure from the kids. It means something to them. [They asked me to] 'get mommy a ring, so I said 'OK, I will! I will.'"

"We're getting a lot of pressure from the kids," Pitt, 48, says. "It means something to them."Pitt admits he hasn't "been very good" at explaining why he and Jolie have put marriage on hold since first becoming a couple in 2005. "We will someday. We will," Pitt promises. "That's a great idea."

When his brood of six -- Maddox, 10, Pax, 8, Zahara, 7, Shiloh, 5, and Knox and Vivienne, 3 -- asked him to "get mommy a ring," Pitt vowed: "Okay, I will! I will."The Moneyball and Tree of Life actor adds that he's always been mindful of his children's desires -- especially when it pertains to his busy work schedule.

"You have less time to spend on a project," Pitt explains. "You come home and you're Dad. You're much more conscious of how much time you give to a production."Pitt's full interview on CBS Sunday Morning airs January 29.

The Hollywood star, 36 — who already raises six children with partner Brad Pitt, 48 — is reportedly three months pregnant. Lara Croft actress Ang didn't try to hide her tummy and wore a tight black skirt and blouse.

She took kids Shiloh, five, Knox, three, and adopted son Pax, eight, shopping for treats at a farmers' market in Los Angeles. There was no sign of Maddox, ten, Zahara, six, who are both adopted, and Knox's twin Vivienne. But it still looks like they still had a Lara fun...

George Clooney and Stacy Keibler hitched a ride on a private jet with Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie from L.A. to the Palm Springs International Film Festival in California Jan. 7 -- but the flight was anything but smooth.

"Angelina refused to acknowledge that Stacy was even on the plane," a source tells Us Weekly of Clooney's bubbly girlfriend of six months. "Angelina went out of her way to ignore her, from takeoff to landing. She would not even look Stacy's way. She was not having it!"

A second source isn't at all surprised that the former wrestler and 2006 Dancing with the Stars contestant, 32, got iced out by 36-year-old Jolie: "Angie is really not a girlie girl."Jolie herself admitted to Marie Claire mag in December that she doesn't have a whole lot of female friends.

"Well, I have a few girlfriends. I just... I stay at home a lot," the actress-director explained. "I don't do a lot with them, and I'm very homebound. ..But I don't know, I don't have a lot of friends I talk to. [Brad] really is the only person I talk to."

Speaking with Reuters at Saturday's Producers Guild Awards in Beverly Hills, Pitt said that he and Jolie, who are each busy on both sides of the camera as well as raising six children together, will talk shop at the end of a long day.

"Usually we argue shop every now and then," Pitt said, noting that they tend to differ in their approach. "She's much more decisive, she's much more quick. I've got to see everything. I've got to shop the entire eBay to know exactly what I want and what I need."

When he's stumped, Pitt said, "I'll always go to her and talk it out."Jolie, who received the guild's Stanley Kramer Award for her directorial debut, "In the Land of Blood and Honey," said Pitt's role as a producer calls for different skills. He produced and starred in "Moneyball," one of the 10 films nominated for the Producers Guild's top prize.

"I had to direct, I think it's different. I think he'd execute properly if he was the director," Jolie said. "But I do like to think of myself as decisive, so I'll take that."Regarding her first work in the director's chair, a love story set amid the harrowing destruction of the Bosnian War, Jolie said her intention "wasn't to make a political statement against anybody. It was simply to say, 'We must talk about what happened, we must try to learn from what happened, we must try to see humanity on all sides,' and if we can, then we can start to move forward."

On the other hand, Jolie admitted that she was "fascinated" by a political matter somewhat closer to home: the Republican presidential race. "There's that part of us that's wanting to learn about what's going on, and wanting to see who could possibly be the next president, and taking that very seriously, which it is. And then there's that other part of it that is this strange television ... these characters that we're watching. So you try to kind of separate that," Jolie said, adding that "it goes into the bizarre sometimes."

Angelina Jolie's directorial debut about a love story between a Serbian policeman and his rape victim has met with sharp criticism among Bosnian Serbs who said the work was biased and anti-Serb.

The movie "In the Land of Blood and Honey" set during the 1992-95 Balkan war has received critical acclaim in the US.

The film is slated to be premiered in Serbia and the Serb-populated part of Bosnia in May, and Jolie has said she would like to attend the screening.

Authorities have turned down a request by some war veterans' organisations to ban the film. Jolie -- who is a goodwill ambassador for the UN High Commissioner for Refugees -- has also been exposed to a barrage of criticism from the press and calls for a boycott to "show her she isn't welcome" in the country.

Serbian websites have been flooded with pictures allegedly showing Jolie in pornographic acts before she became a celebrity.

The pictures are reportedly accompanied with comments like "once a prostitute - always a prostitute". Internationally acclaimed Serbian film director Emir Kusturica has declined to comment on Jolie's film, calling her a "propagandist" not a filmmaker.

First the rumor mill was saying Angelina Jolie hated George Clooney's new girlfriend, Stacey Keibler. Angie reportedly thought George could do better than the former WWE wrestler. Now rumor has it that Angie and George are "embroiled in a bitter feud." Ah, the lives of the rich and famous.

Yes, Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt's BFF are apparently not friends. And according to Showbiz Spy, they're not even polite acquaintances. A case in point was a private planet trip Brangelina took with Clooney and La Keibler to the Palm Springs International Film Festival on January 7. The flight was, to put it mildly, a bumpy ride.

"Angelina refused to acknowledge that Stacy was even on the plane," reveals a source. "Angelina went out of her way to ignore her, from takeoff to landing. She would not even look Stacy's way. She was NOT having it! Angie is really not a girlie girl."

Is any intelligent woman a girlie girl? Whatever that is. Be that as it may, although the Angelina Jolie-George Clooney feud may have been exacerbated by Stacey Keibler's presence, inside sources claim there was always tension between the two superstars from the beginning. "George thinks Angelina is boring and not good company at all. He does not like to spend time with her."

Oh well, sooner or later Stacey Keibler will go the way of all the other Clooney groupies and disappear. However, Clooney and Brad Pitt have been friends for a long time, and they're likely to remain so—possibly for the rest of their lives. So it seems that Angelina Jolie and old George are likely to remain impolite adversaries for a long time.
