- Ang and I have the same taste in art! NY Daily News reports:
Angelina Jolie doesn't just adopt malnourished children - she spends hundreds of thousands of dollars for weird art pieces of them.
Star magazine reports that the movie siren and mother of three - two adopted kids, one from Cambodia, one from Africa and a biological daughter named Shiloh - stopped by a Los Angeles warehouse and blew almost $400,000 on three pieces by in-your-face Brit artist Banksy.
A $226,000 painting - titled "Picnic" - depicts a white family of four merrily lunching under an umbrella on a red checked blanket while 15 starving Africans - including several children with distended bellies - look on.
A $75,000 purchase - a white bust with a bleeding bullet hole in the forehead - was a particular favorite of Jolie's. "She went nuts for that one," an onlooker told the mag. "She told [her baby daddy], 'I must have that one.'"
For another cool $75,000, she picked up a portrait of a man hit in the head with a custard pie.
Sweet? There's no accounting for taste.

If she ignores her bust for long enough I'm going to grab it.
Oh yeah.
