Harper’s Bazaar July 2009 Does Angelina Jolie

Angelina Jolie, 34, covers the July issue of Harper’s Bazaar but don’t look for an interview with the actress inside the issue because she isn’t exactly interviewed for the piece.

Instead, the magazine analyzes why the world goes ga-ga for Angie.
“Women both identify with her and desire her,” writer Naomi Wolf hypothesizes as she explores Angelina’s transformation from a wild child to Hollywood’s most powerful celebrity, adding that it’s “more than simply a physical response.”
As a working mom of six, Angie “makes the claim, with her life and actions, that, indeed, you can get away with it. All of it,” Wolf writes. “Against every Western convention, she has managed to draw together all of these kinds of female liberation and empowerment. And her gestures determinedly transgress social boundaries — boundaries of convention, race, class, and gender — giving many of us a vicarious thrill.”
