While we can't wait to see Angelina's next film project, it's no secret that in the meantime she remains committed to her aid work in Africa and around the world. For her recent trip to visit Darfur refugees in Chad, Angelina invited along a photographer and afterwards sat down with Newsweek to talk about her experiences. The images from her trip, like the one below of a young boy who remains tethered for fear that he will run away after witnessing atrocities that have left him psychologically unwell, are intense and heartbreaking, to say the least. Here's an excerpt from her interview:

When did it occur to you that you could do something about this directly? Did people approach you or —
I approached them. I think they thought I was a little crazy.
When was this?
Six years ago. I was very nervous to call the U.N. agency at the time. I [was] considered a rebel in Hollywood. At the time I was also a bit of the wild child. So first I went to Washington [to the UNHCR office] and I sat with everybody there and said, "You know, I know you don't know me. You might have heard things about me… And I don't want to bring negative attention to your agency. If you could just help me, I'll pay my way."
I spent the next year and a half going to, first, two camps in Africa, and then Pakistan and Cambodia. And with no cameras and with no press and had the opportunity to have this great education before I spoke at all…. I was transformed in such an amazing way.

Just when you think there couldn't possibly be any more awards shows, Hollywood is right there to prove you wrong. This weekend, The Soul Train Music Awards honored artists in R&B, hip-hop and gospel music. Jennifer Hudson, Babyface and John Legend were among the winners. Here are highlights:

"I want to thank Soul Train for appreciating my music and black music over the years," said Legend, who did not attend the show, via a television feed.
"I just can't believe I got the Sammy Davis Jr. award," said Hudson, who also performed during the show. "I'm standing on the same stage where I made the top 32 of 'American Idol.'"
"When you think of songwriting and where it comes from, you go to your space in your room and you write, and you try to write from the heart," Edmonds said.
Beyonce, Jamie Foxx, and Mary J. Blige were also honored but failed to grace us with their presence. I have to wonder where Jennifer Hudson and Mary J. Blige keep all of their awards. Seriously, these women seem to be racking up the awards these days.

We know a lot of people were sick of anything dealing with Jessica Simpson but we must say the more we see her with John the more we just keep falling in love with them as a couple. There's something about their perfectly mismatched courtship that we just can't get enough of. John may look slightly uncomfortable about being approached by what I can only assume to be a fan, but look at the picture with the behind-the-back-holding hands - say it with me, awww. Okay, we'll try to keep the gush factor to a minimum from now on. Promise!

I'm slightly baffled by people who don't think Gisele is smoking hot, so here she is looking, as I see it, hot on the cover of this month's Italian Vanity Fair. While the Gisele/Tom Brady pregnancy rumors are still making the rounds and there is no official word from Gisele's camp, her family has denied the story. Though their child would be gorgeous and the soap opera quotient would be high if the story had been true, it's probably best for Tom Brady that he field one unexpected fathering at a time. Meanwhile, come on, Gisele, gorgeous!

We have been lucky to get a ton of celebrity baby pictures recently and while we've definitely had better Suri sightings recently, we'll take what we can get. It was just another weekend for the Cruise family so you know what that means...basketball games!!! Katie, Tom and Suri escaped out the back door after the game, which explains why they are behind these fences. Suri looks like such a little person - it's so cute!

Meow. Hilary Duff sex kittened it up at a short concert at G-A-Y Nightclub in London this weekend. Her album drops at the beginning of April, and I'm pretty sure this is just the beginning of her promotional tour. Yes, for the next few weeks we can expect to see Hilary pretty much every step of the way making sure we know that Dignity is being released. Who else is thrilled?!? Right. Anyway, as good as H-Duff looks in this outfit, it still feels a little like Lizzy McGuire's in a tramp costume. Hot.

Last weekend, Liz Hurley tied the knot in Wales with Arun Nayar. This week, the festivities continued with a traditional Hindu ceremony in Jodhpur, India. Unfortunately, the couple's (second) big day was skewed by a spat between some journalists and security guards who were in attendance. Here's more:

The fight began outside Mehrangarh fort, the venue for a dinner, after a television reporter was slapped by a security guard as journalists tried to chase the celebrity couple's car.
Angry journalists then broke through one of the security cordons, setting off a fist fight with the security guards that lasted nearly an hour. No major injuries were reported.
Ahh, the high price a celebrity must pay for fame. It looks like the family still made the best of the weekend though - how cute are Liz and Damian dressed up in their traditional Indian garb? We love that Liz and Arun got the best of both their worlds for their wedding celebrations.
