Angelina Jolie refuses to listen to Brad Pitt's pleas

Angelina Jolie has also refused to listen to her partner Brad Pitt's pleas to stop traveling alone to war zones, despite her recent admission she was the target of a kidnapping plot reports NW Magazine.
While Brad admires Angelina Jolie's humanitarian efforts, he's worried something will happen to his partner, who insists on traveling without bodyguards.

"It was in a small village," Ange says of the plot to kidnap her. "I won't say where, or with whom, but some gangsters planned to kidnap me and extort a massive ransom. I was warned at the last minute, and managed to escape, luckily."

Despite the threats, Angelina refuses to take a security team with her. "I take no-one," says the independent actress. "I [go] by myself on a commercial plane and into the field with my backpack.

"The first two years I just cried constantly," she says. "I went through a period of complete lack of hope."

"If I can draw you in a little because I'm familiar, then that's great," says the UN Goodwill Ambassador.
