The story behind the photo of Angelina Jolie covered in bees
Angelina Jolie participated in an important awareness campaign.
The photographer drew inspiration from Richard Avedon's 1981 portrait of beekeeper Ronald Fischer, who sat shirtless and covered with bees for the famed picture. ... "It was so funny to be in hair and makeup and wiping yourself with pheromone," Jolie said in National Geographic's exclusive World Bee Day interview.
"With everything that worries us in the world, this is one we can handle," said Angelina Jolie, who was named a sponsor of Women of Bees, a UNESCO program that seeks to care for this essential species.
"The decisions we make and the things we do in the next 10 or 20 years will mark or break the way we can live on this planet," said Jolie, who has gone 3 days without bathing for said production. "I have six children and a lot is happening. I don't know how to be 'perfect' at anything. So if we can help each other to say, 'This is a way to go, simple, and this is something you can do with your children.' "expanded the 45-year-old American actress, director, screenwriter, producer and activist for the rights of American women.
"I don't think many people know the damage they are doing. Many are just trying to get through the day" and "They want to do good. They don't want to be destructive. They don't know what to buy. They don't know what to wear. So I think part of this is wanting to help make it simple for everyone, because I need it "concluded Brad Pitt's ex-wife.
