    Angelina Jolie Wrote Foreword to Billy Bob Thornton's Memoir

    No bad blood -- or blood vials -- here!

    Angelina Jolie has written the foreword to ex-husband Billy Bob Thornton's new memoir, The Billy Bob Tapes: A Cave Full of Ghosts, a rep for the book's publisher, HarperCollins, confirms to Us Weekly.

    Jolie, 36, and Thornton, 56, were married from 2000 to 2003; during their intense, sometimes odd union, the couple famously wore vials of one another's blood around their necks. Jolie and Brad Pitt have been together (but not married) since 2005. Married five times overall, Thornton and makeup artist Connie Angland have been in a relationship since 2003.

    "We talk every now and then," the Faster actor said in late 2010 of Jolie. "She seems to be doing very well directing her own movie [In the Land of Blood and Honey], which I am so proud of her for."

    "She's real smart, and very creative, and I think it's a great job for her."

    Cowritten with country music singer and author Kinky Friedman, The Billy Bob Tapes promises to tell, according to book description info on Amazon, "colorful tales of his modest (to say the least) Southern upbringing, his bizarre phobias (komodo dragons?), his life, his loves (including his heartbreakingly brief marriage to fellow Oscar winner Angelina Jolie), and, of course, his movie career."

      When you've gotten old and ugly and your career is in the dumpster, you apparently have no choice but to write about the people you've slept with. Otherwise known as a memoir.

      He is a jerk who never had anything to do with his biological daughter, who wound up being mental and killing a kid. Great talent, but his life kinda shadows any good. Just like Mel Gibson, or Woody Allen.

      It's hard to believe that anyone cares about these people. All cash and no class.

    • Diane  •  3 months ago
      Very nice of her considering the horrible things he has said about her since their split.
    • gizmogirl  •  3 months ago
      I saw an interview where Billy Bob exonerated Angelina from all blame over the failure of their relationship. That and the fact that are in happy, stable relationships may have mended fences.

      I think she left him in the dust when she adopted the baby.
      • CalGal 3 months ago
        My recollection is that she adopt against his wishes. I think he already had a gaggle of kids he wasn't nurturing.
      • Odess 3 months ago
        Then he turned around and had a baby with another woman!
      • CalGal 3 months ago
        My recollection too Odess, maybe she wasn't the right baby-mama for him.
