Madonna got tons of negative publicity for adopting that little boy and even commented how difficult it was for her. Being a celebrity brings on publicity no matter what you do. Maybe the UN has even more volunteers now because of the publicity they receive from Angelina Jolie. They know what their doing making famous people UN ambassadors or they would have been calling on you and me. They need to be in the spotlight as well to raise money and awareness. You can't discredit what she has done for the UN because of her "private" life being well documented. Just a thought.
