When Hollywood actors aren’t behind the cameras, what is it that keeps them busy and intrigued? We know that money is of no concern and indulging in bizarre pastimes is something only the rich and famous can enjoy. But while some fill their spacious garages with supercars, it seems like others like to dabble in more exotic hobbies.
In this post, we’re going to take a sneak peek into the casual lives of some of the world’s most renowned celebrities to see what they do to keep busy.
Angelina Jolie
Angelina has always had rough edges and she is mostly famous for her roles in movies that have a dangerous theme – such as Mr and Mrs Smith, and Gone in 60 Seconds, for example. In the real world, her character remains brazen and her “bad girl” personality runs wild.
