London Accidentally Praises Angelina Jolie, Or Does It?

[ecchi]

On the train today someone was reading a London newspaper (The Evening Standard). The main article on the cover was about Angelina Jolie's London Summit against war rape. Most of the cover was a big picture of Jolie with the headline "This sends a big message to those who abuse women - we will come for you."

Next to this as the paper was held open was the back page which I thought was an advert for a cosmetic company. But it held what looked like an accidental compliment to Angelina Jolie. Next to her photo it said, in big letters, "The Bold, Brash And Beautiful."

However the paper was slightly folded and it was less of an accidental compliment and more of an accidental insult. When I saw the whole thing it was not an advert for a cosmetic company as I had thought, it was an advert for a TV show on later tonight. Lower down, next to an article of Angelina Jolie's appearance in London, and photograph of her, it said "Drag Queens Of London"!

Ah well, the Lord Giveth, and the Lord taketh away. And So doth the London Evening Standard.
