In a recent interview with BBC News, Angelina Jolie talked about want to work less, spend more time at home with her more-than-a-handful of kids and just be one of us mere, normal folk.
On working less: “I don’t plan to keep acting very long. I’m ready to do a few things now and fade away and get ready to be a grandma one day. I’m not so worried that I want to keep this pace up and try to be something and be a celebrity.”
On making the decision to stop working: “I don’t think I’ll ever say that I’m never ever going to work, because maybe there’s that interesting project where I’ll feel creative, but certainly I think now I haven’t worked for a year — I’ll work for a few months in February. I won’t work again probably for another year, so maybe it’ll be once a year and then maybe it’ll be once every three years.”
On being with her kids: “I like being home a lot. First and foremost, I have a lot of children, and I need to make sure they’re growing right and they’ve got us there for them.”
So what do you think, will it really be that easy for Jolie to just fade into the background? I’m thinking no, but it is great to see someone taking a hands on approach to actually parenting instead of letting the nannies handle everything.

I think she can fade away. I believe she has and always will be a good humanitarian. Her celebrity as an actress might fade, but her role worldwide won’t fade away. She spent couple years reforming herself and now, she is looked upon in a great manner. Besides, she has Brad Pitt.

A self assured women can pause and restart her career and reinvent herself at any point. Having the experience of children in your life and watching them grow is a blessing.

I can’t say I’ll miss her if she fades away. I don’t think she’s a great actress. She’s gorgeous. But that’s about it.

I believe it will be very difficult for her to fade away. It’ll take many, many years. At her level of fame, if she could disapear off the map for a couple of years, and then someone snaps a picture of her, it would make the cover of all the tabloids.

I would say.. she wont fade away, even if she’s no longer a celebrity, she will still be admired by the public.
If she’ll be out in the industry of holywood, i will really missed her.
