Angelina Jolie dazzled on the red carpet at the 64th annual Cannes Film Festival while promoting Kung Fu Panda 2.
Brad Pitt's partner is not only a gorgeous and talented actress, but she's also got a knack for using different voices. Who knew? While auditioning for her role in Kung Fu Panda, she tried out various voices ... including Mae West! During an interview for MTV News, Angie revealed:
- "I did, I did. I've never loved my own voice. Like most people, you hear your own voice and you think, 'Ugh.' So I came in and I was Mae West for a while. I was doing southern, I was doing British, I was doing any accent I could come up with. Finally, they had to give me the talking-to that they'd analyzed my voice and they'd hired me and they were very fine with my [natural voice], 'So please just stop doing those horrible voices."
Kung Fu Panda 2 also features the voice of Jack Black, Antonio Banderas and Salma Hayek.
Jolie plays feisty fighter Tigress in the second installment of this hit franchise.
