The Angelina Jolie vs. Jennifer Aniston battle has begun in 2005 when Jennifer Aniston was then married to actor Brad Pitt. Angelina Jolie came in to the picture and was later on the domestic partner of the said actor. Though the love affair issue has been well publicized; there are no actual or confirmed facts - only stipulations. The stipulation of the divorce between Aniston and Pitt was due to a blooming love affair between Pitt and Jolie as well as the notion that Aniston did not want to have children when Pitt was eager to have one himself. The issue between the two women and Pitt died down eventually after the divorce of the couple was official and after the new couple received the name "Brangelina".
The fact is, these two women are more alike than they are different. Most people do not know this as they have most likely focused their attention to the issues of which these women's paths have crossed. Both of them are children of actors and actresses; Angelina is the daughter of John Voight and Marcheline Bertrand while Jennifer is the daughter of John Aniston and Nancy Dow. Both of them are only daughters, both grew up in New York and both of them come from foreign descents of different races. Should differences be considered; there are so few; Angelina has been married twice before though decided not to with Brad Pitt while Jennifer has only been married once, to Brad. Jolie has been controversial in terms of her tattoos which is 13 known to the public while Aniston has none known - at least none of which is controversial to the eyes of the public. Jolie has six children, three of whom was adopted off from different nations in her course of humanitarian work while the other three are biological, fathered by Brad.
In terms of their career, the Angelina Jolie vs. Jennifer Aniston rivalry is really not much of a contest. Both of them have been successful in their acting careers and have been able to star in a great deal of films of which they have both excelled in. Aniston, though is already forty, still has that girl next door image of which works great with her roles. She can be a sweet, loving girlfriend to a wife who has more serious roles. Jolie on the other hand has that certain angst; though she is only 34, she is better seen in roles where she is feisty and always on the go rather than to be seen as a sweetheart waiting for the love of her life to come home and sweep her off her feet. Both women have humanitarian causes of which they advocate dearly. Though Jolie has a longer list, particularly because she has become a member of the council of foreign relations long after she has begun her work around the globe to make life better for others who are less fortunate, Aniston has been recognized to be an advocate for mostly causes involving children. She has also been recognized for her contributions to be able to increase understanding for the lesbian, gay, transgender and bisexual communities.
