Angelina Jolie 'Completely Humiliated' by Oscars 'Leg' Dress, May Fire Stylist
Angelina Jolie has kept a low profile since her now-infamous Oscars appearance, and new reports suggest that the actress is suffering from humiliation and could fire her stylist due to the ongoing mockery that she has received for her attire.
The 36-year-old mother of six donned a black Versace gown which at first glance appeared elegant. After revealing its thigh high split during what has now famously been dubbed "that pose," Jolie attracted worldwide ridicule from her fellow guests at the 84th Academy Awards and the general public.
Her personal stylist is being blamed, according to British magazine Closer.
"Angelina is horrified at the reaction her Oscars dress received. She pays her stylist Jen a lot of money to pick things that will make her look drop-dead gorgeous, but she felt the dress swallowed her up and she had to stick her leg, or it looked like she was wearing a bin bag," a source told Closer.
"Now she's being laughed at when she's worked so hard on her look. She feels like a joke and is worried her reputation may have taken a hit. She bitterly regrets wearing the dress and is just hoping the next time she's on the red carpet, she makes headlines for the right reasons," the source added.
The "In The Land Of Blood And Honey" director appeared to be in good spirits when she arrived with boyfriend Brad Pitt, but inside the prestigious event Jolie was quickly left red-faced when Oscar award-winning screenwriter, Jim Rash, proceeded to mimic her leg pose while accepting his award.
"It was just an impulse. I hope it was okay. I hope [Angelina] thought it was okay. It was a loving tribute," Rash told The Washington Post.
Fans quickly flocked to Twitter to poke fun at the incident, with many calling Jolie's pose "awkward" and others photoshopping pictures of Jolie to present her in a series of exaggerated and bizarre poses which added further insult to injury for the actress.
"Angelina can't believe that she is now the butt of everyone's jokes- and on such a global scale. She feels completely humiliated. She simply can't believe that her appearance backfired so spectacularly. Angelina never looks uncool - ever," a source told Grazia Magazine.
