Angelina Jolie said she does not find Hollywood to be a healthy place

Speaking with The Wall Street Journal Magazine in a new interview, Angelina said: “I wouldn’t be an actress today. My body reacts very strongly to stress. My blood sugar goes up and down. I suddenly had Bell’s palsy six months before my divorce. When I was starting, it wasn’t as much of an expectation to be as public, to share so much. I’ve just been around so long and there’s been everything said.”

The actor further opened up about leaving Hollywood and added: “It’s part of what happened after my divorce. I lost the ability to live and travel as freely. I will move when I can. I grew up in quite a shallow place. Of all the places in the world, Hollywood is not a healthy place. So you seek authenticity.”
