World War Z

Angelina Jolie's recent series of red carpet appearances would be notable even if she hadn't just revealed in a shocking Times op-ed that she'd recently completed a preventative double mastectomy--any time a movie star of Jolie's caliber steps out looking this good, it's newsworthy. But that these appearances follow her disclosure sends an even more powerful message: that she's still a sex symbol and brave as hell.

Angelina Jolie walked the red carpet wearing custom Saint Laurent at the premiere of hubby Brad Pitt's film World War Z this morning in London. She looked radiant and impossibly gorgeous--in other words, how she's looked at every major event since pretty much ever. Except this appearance is different.
