Angelina Jolie Thinks Brad Pitt & Jennifer Aniston Blocked Her Oscar Nomination—And She’s Not Happy About It!
Angelina Jolie is in her feelings, y’all! According to Radar Online, she’s upset about being snubbed for a Best Actress Oscar nomination for her role in Maria—and she’s convinced Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston had something to do with it.
An insider (because there’s always an insider) claims Angelina believes her ex and his first wife used their Hollywood connections to keep her off the list.
A little backstory: Brad and Jennifer got married in 2000, but by 2005, rumors were flying that he was getting way too close to his Mr. & Mrs. Smith co-star—yep, Angelina. Shortly after, Jennifer filed for divorce, and Brad and Angelina made their relationship official. They got married in 2014 and share six kids—some biological, some adopted. But by 2019, their relationship had completely fallen apart, and their divorce battle turned into an absolute mess.
We’re talking child abuse allegations, a brutal custody fight, and a nasty feud over their French vineyard. Their divorce dragged on for years and was finally finalized in 2024.
Meanwhile, Brad has reportedly admitted he made mistakes in his marriage to Jennifer, and the two have remained friendly—well, Hollywood friendly.
Now, sources say Angelina is convinced Brad and Jen have been working behind the scenes to damage her reputation. Some claim Jennifer still hasn’t forgiven Angelina for “stealing her man,” and since Brad and Jen have serious pull in Hollywood, it’s possible their influence played a role in Angelina getting snubbed.
With all this drama, there’s even talk that Angelina might be ready to step away from Hollywood for good. Could this be the final straw? Stay tuned!
Alright, Auntie, I see you rolling your eyes over there. What’s on your mind?
“Baby, ain’t nobody do anything to Angelina! Nobody said nothing about you, Angelina! We just didn’t like the movie Maria! Did anybody even see it? I don’t remember hearing a peep about it. Anybody? Anybody?”
“You know what this reminds me of? When Will Smith did a movie, and he just knew he was getting an Oscar—but nobody was talking about it. Then Jada got all riled up, and we were like, ‘Girl… what movie?!’ Maybe people just didn’t like it! That’s it! That’s all!”
“And listen, as a creative myself, I know how much work goes into these projects. You study, you prepare, you pour your heart into it—it’s exhausting. But sometimes, no matter how much effort you put in, it just doesn’t hit. And that’s the reality.”
“Now, don’t get me wrong. I know Hollywood plays dirty. There’s politics, favoritism, all kinds of backdoor deals. But at the end of the day, if something is truly powerful, people are gonna talk about it. Awards or not. And the truth is, they weren’t talking about Maria.”
“Some folks are calling this Angelina’s karma. But let’s be real—there’s a difference between being a side chick and dealing with a man who’s already checked out of his marriage, okay?”
“Sometimes, a relationship is done in every way except on paper. The divorce is happening, it just ain’t finalized yet. And the fact that Brad and Angelina waited five years to get married? That doesn’t scream ‘homewrecker’ to me.”
“‘Cause let’s be honest—some men leave their marriage and six months later, boom, they’re married again. And you know there was overlap! But five years? That’s a different story.”
“So no, I don’t think this is karma. Sometimes, things just don’t go the way you want them to.”
“But let me ask you this—why is nobody talking about Brad, huh? Why is it always Angelina catching the heat? He left a marriage and started a new one, but somehow, the woman always gets the blame.”
“It’s that same old story—Adam and Eve, right? The woman is always the problem. And here we are, still playing out that tired narrative.”
Nobody made you eat the apple, Adam. You ate it because you wanted to eat it. You feel me?
Brad wanted Angelina, so Brad left.
So why hasn’t his career taken a hit? Why isn’t he the one getting dragged through the tabloids? Why aren’t we out here questioning why he couldn’t make his marriage work?
We gotta be real careful with how we talk about these things. Every time we say “side piece” or “side chick,” we’re centering the man—like he’s the main character and the woman is just a supporting role in his story. Why not flip the script and make her the focal point?
Imagine if the headlines looked more like this:
“After leaving Jennifer Aniston and amid cheating rumors with Angelina Jolie, Brad Pitt is facing major backlash in Hollywood. Studios are distancing themselves, and he’s losing out on roles worth millions. Industry insiders say Hollywood doesn’t take kindly to men who walk out on their wives for a side chick, and he’s feeling the consequences. Maybe next time, Brad will think twice. Until then, he’ll have to make do with the fortune he’s already got.”
Now that would change the narrative.
And let me just say—Angelina leaving Hollywood? That would be a tragedy. We need Angelina in Hollywood.
I’ve never gone out of my way to watch anything Jennifer Aniston was in. If she happened to be in something I was already watching, cool. But if I see, “Angelina Jolie stars in…” Oh, you better believe I’m tuning in!
Because Salt? That movie will make you feel powerful. Tomb Raider? Legendary. And if you want to see real depth? Changeling will take you there.
So, Angelina—forget the noise. Maybe this just wasn’t your year. Maybe you were up against something unbeatable—like if Wicked was in the mix, Cynthia Erivo had that locked down, no question. But don’t let this get to you.
You’re not done. You’ve got plenty more in you. Keep giving us those badass movies.
Chalk it up and keep it moving, girl. You got this.
