Angelina Jolie Slammed As "Ignorant" By Bosnian Wartime Rape Victims

The problems never end for Angelina Jolie's directorial debut!

Her film initially sparked controversy in Bosnia when the local media reported rumors that the story concerned a Muslim rape victim who falls in love with her attacker. Jolie cleared up the rumors by sending out copies of the script.

At the time, the actress turned director also said she wanted to meet with the associations that complained to clear any misunderstandings. So why didn't a meeting happen?

Women Victims of War (WVW) association head Bakira Hasecic claims Jolie invited the Bosnian War rape victims to the Hungarian capital but they refused because "crimes were committed here, in Bosnia, and we want to meet her here."

Today WVW wrote a letter to the United Nations refugee agency (UNHCR) slamming Angelina Jolie. Read it below:

    "Angelina Jolie's ignorant attitude towards victims says enough about the scenario and gives us the right to continue having doubts about it. We have insisted to meet Angelina Jolie since we don't want to be wrongly presented in the world... Our voices are worthwhile and we should have got much more respect. Angelina made a big mistake. We feel that she did not act like a real UNHCR ambassador and we believe that she has no more credibility to remain the ambassador."


Sounds like Angie needs to make this go away before she continues with the project.

The Kardashian family has distanced themselves from a MasterCard deal that their attorneys say, "threatens everything for which [The Kardashians] have worked." The plastic card, featuring a photo of the three sisters, has been advertised as the Kardashian Kard.

According to a "Notice of Termination," the family states a "negative spotlight" was put on the venture after the Attorney General of Connecticut associated the credit card with possible violations against consumer protection laws.

The Attorney General voiced concern over several fees including $9.95 to own one, a $7.95 per month fee for twelve months and $1.50 charge every time the owner adds money to the pre-paid card.

In the public notice, the family's lawyer writes, "The Kardashians have worked extremely long and hard to create a positive public persona that appeals to everyone, particularly young adults."

The Kardashians have terminated the MasterCard deal "effective immediately."

Meanwhile, Kim continues to claim she's "single" and "having fun." But what about Gabriel Aubry?

rihannagq230.jpgSexy Rihanna, with her ravenous red hair, is giving us the bedroom eyes inside the pages of British GQ's January 2011 issue.

As for dressing in a provocative way, the 22-year-old pop star tells the mag:

    "Girls don’t like to see other girls dressed sexy. I get that. People see my ass out and my boobs out, so it can get a little irritating.”


We certainly don't mind! Rihanna has been making the rounds on several publications lately including Interview Magazine ... in which she was interviewed by Kanye West. RiRi gets candid about her plans for having kids, telling West:

    “I would love to bring them up in [my native country] Barbados. But with the career that I have, I definitely can’t do that. I can’t live that far away from everything now, without kids, so I certainly couldn’t raise kids and do that with the demanding schedule that I have.”


All in good time, RiRi. Until then, work that body!
