Angelina Jolie Is Removing Her Ovaries - Wants Them Sent To Smithsonian

According to the new issue of People and the hundred other magazine covers that Angelina Jolie is on this week, Angelina Jolie is not finished having preventative surgery. her next surgery scheduled to be performed is to have her ovaries removed. Angelina says she has a 50% chance of getting ovarian cancer which is what killed her mother. There is not a timetable set for her surgery, but I'm sure when she does get them removed she will let the world know. She is absolutely everywhere this week. On Friday when all the weeklies are on the newsstands, just go to a big news outlet and count how many covers she is on this week.

    The surgery to remove ovaries is not nearly as complicated as the double mastectomy surgery. I'm glad she's making a big deal out of it.

    It's funny to see how many people are giving her crap about HAVING CANCER.

      It's not the issue of cancer but bleeding the issue for everything you can like Armstrong or Ron Goldman's dad crying on camera every chance he got.

      Yeah @just curious Ron Goldman's dad was such a dick, always crying about "my son was nearly decapitated and they let his killer go free" boo hoo, what an asshole. I mean it's not like reporters with cameras walked up to him and asked him how how he felt, nope. He would totally seek them out because the one thing parents love most is talking about how their children were murdered.

      No problem, I just wrote that after reading the comment above mine. I just think that it is hilarious/horrifying that someone has the nerve to call out Ron Goldman's dad for crying about his son being killed. Honestly, how sheltered must your life be that it allows you to get to a point where you feel totally comfortable calling out parents over how they grieve over the murder of their children?

    The media always goes on overdrive disproportionate to the story; I can't really fault her for that, it sounds like she timed her piece in the Times deliberately to miss the cutoff for the tabs (and yet Kneepads still re-did their issue).

    There aren't a lot of celebrity-related things that make my jaw drop but I admit, when I got to work, having heard news teasers about "Angelina's shocking news" without managing to catch the story, my jaw dropped when finally told what I missed.

    The media will run it into the ground, of course, but she can't control that. I like that she controlled the message, and demonstrated that a celebrity can, when they put their mind to it, keep personal information private and on their own terms.

    I suppose it's a good thing she's doing, by making women aware of their options and breast cancer awareness, but I had never heard of having a procedure done before you got a disease. I have been reading up on this in the past couple of days, and found that a large percentage of women believe they will automatically get breast cancer and want to have a their breasts removed to prevent it. There was a good article on NBC New Vitals about it, with interesting comments from various doctors.

      No surgery is easy, even elective ones. However, this surgery has really came a long way. A pocket at the armpit to suck out the breast tissue, so theres none of that carved up thing of old. Some could cynically say, she's nearing 40, just had a few kids, killing two birds with one stone with the implants, lifting. Whatever. I am not a Brangeloonie, dont think this makes her a saint, but if it helps women make an important decision to save their lives, then good on AngieJo.

    I don't mind this story because it has made everyone talk about it. My girlfriend's mother had breast cancer and we had the discussion about this. She is going to get the genetic testing done and then she'll decide.

    Anjelina's openness about this may save many lives, so it's a good thing. My only other comment is Christina Applegate did the same thing a few years ago and it didn't have 10% of the buzz of Anjelina doing it.

    She's doing a good thing and not making a penny off it. She doesn't need more fame she has it. I really can't see this as a self serving act.

    If it helps more women get tested or takes the stigma or fear out of what she did, then she should be on every magazine to talk about it.

    I think she is brave, she is a long way from who she used to be and I respect her for it.

      Not to sound like a broken record but check into gluten & crohns. I would also consider getting into juice fasts and out of the habit of processed foods. It is really hard but oh so worth it. Crohns is a bitch but it can be managed. Good luck! Hope it is just a false alarm.

      The main thing with chronic disease is that inflammation is the enemy. Lower the inflammation and your suffering is reduced. I am a prime example of this. And I suffered horribly for 30 years. If I can make a comeback as sick as I was (I literally look 20 years younger! No surgery, just dietary changes) then anyone can.

    It's interesting to read comments on various sites - seems like people either love AJ or hate her. No matter what you think of the woman, you have to admit she got a LOT of people talking, and got a very serious issue brought to the forefront of today's news and quite possibly - saved more than a few lives. If that is the only legacy she leaves in life, well, then I think she's done all right. But it's not. She gets involved in humanitarian issues around the world - she USES the celebrity she's been given to bring attention to these causes. You can't fault her for that - sometimes I wonder if people would rather she use her celebrity to just promote herself, like so many in Hollywood do? But then they'd snark about that too. She's got a past... done some off the wall stuff (haven't we all in some form or another?) and yes, the whole scandal with BP and Jennifer Aniston will probably haunt them all till the day they die, but it was almost 10 years ago. Everyone's moved on. I'm not nominating her for saint-hood but I think what she did was very brave - and took a lot of courage. Even more so to put herself out there publicly. Think about how image-obsessed the world is, and knowing people are going to be going over every photograph of her with a fine tooth comb for any sign of a flaw or a scar... few people could handle it.

    And for the record, getting your ovaries removed is no picnic either. You get thrown into early menopause, hormones go crazy, the physical discomfort can be draining - yeah, if you want to snark on that, you've never been through it. Her journey isn't even close to being over. But I wish her well... and wish anyone the best who makes the decisions to save their own life through these kinds of measures.

    This makes me respect her more. She didn't have to share this at all and could have just ignored the speculation that she got a boob job for cosmetic reasons.

    Y'all have pretty much covered everything I think about this topic. I think it's incredibly courageous of her to both go through this procedure and to speak about it publicly. Everything she does is placed under the public microscope and scrutinized to minutest detail.

    As for the claims that she did this for publicity, I'd like to point out that all she has to do for that is walk out in public with her kids, place her hand on her abdomen, get caught in the same city as Billy-Bob. *clutching pearls* She doesn't need this to remind the world she's out there.

    I have Crohns!!! It comes and goes with me, because I've learned how to eat, and it flares worst with stress.
    My main advice is don't let doctors just give you prescriptions and a pat on the head. Do your googling about diet & stress reduction too.....The pills can be serious and expensive, depending (like cancer risk Cleo mentioned^^).

    Digestive enzyme supplements (like acidophilus) are you friend. Buy the pills, don't waste money on Activia.

    I'm not a huge fan of Angelina Jolie (she's just so damn smug all the time), and while I understand that having this test and surgery is not an option for every woman as it can cost a lot of money and isn't always covered by insurance, I think it's great that she is talking about this. She is considered a beautiful, sexy woman, and I think that her having these procedures can show other women who are at risk that you can still be a beautiful, feminine, sexy woman even if you have had your breasts and ovaries removed. I think there is a huge stigma attached to mastectomies/ hysterectomies and her talking openly about it is a good thing.

    I still think she's smug, though ;)

      @libby. The real problem in California is that our law contradicts the Federal law. Among other things, this means that Feds can withhold funds from cities/counties that don't abide by their rules.

      Then there's the problem of Doctors who write prescriptions for any reasons. It devalues the actual process and lumps the people who really need it in with people like my bio-dad.

    I didn't know that Crohn's was considered an inflammatory disease. I do know than many MS people take circumin as it has anti-inflammatory properties, worth checking out.

    As for this post, pretty much everyone has said it. Not her fault the media has become so sensationalized. She also announced it after the tabloid deadlines, I suspect on purpose. Of course People had it's staff up till midnight to change the cover story!

    I also liked how she addressed the problem of cost and admits she's lucky. That gene has a patent on it! Our bodies are no longer owned by ourselves. This is also true of stem cells, if you want to have stem cell treatment, even with harvesting your own stem cells, they are owned by corporations. Grrr.r

    Agree with Maja about AJ always looking smug. She's always annoyed me but I certainly admire her strength in this and if it saves one life, the publicity is worth it.

    And as an aside, if Brad ever leaves her, you'll hear the whole "she lost her sexuality along with her breasts" gossip. Having your original breasts and your ovaries, while certainly accentuating your femininity don't define your femininity. Any more than I became unfeminine because I've been through menopause. And real men understand that. Men that don't aren't men, they're boys.

    Ovarian cancer sucks. An awesome lady at work found a tumor accidentally when she went to have a cyst removed, so we were all think hey she was one of the lucky ones and they got it out... okay chemo, she'll be fine... four months she's dead.

    I normally don't give a shit about Angelina Jolie but will be hard on her, she already has sooo much scrutiny and now everyone is going to be looking for scars, are her boobs lumpy/bigger/smaller, etc. But HOPEFULLY, this will not only get women thinking about the issue but also get policy change started so maybe the testing will be covered if you have family history.

    The problem I have with this--and it's not AJ's fault--is that what she's doing isn't an option for the average person. Genetic testing can be expensive and not covered by insurance. Most folks can't afford it, not to mention the preventive surgeries she's having.

    I appreciated AJ's intent, I think her heart is in the right place. But as with most things in life, it comes down to money. And most of us don't have it to do this sort of thing.

    What kills me are the guys (because they certainly aren't men) who are bitching on Twitter, et al. about how could she do this, she doesn't have the right, her boobs were the best thing about her, now I can't fantasize about her any more, wankwankwankwankwank--acting as if she's duty-bound to keep her tits, irregardless of risk, because clearly it's more important for males she doesn't know and will never meet to have jackoff material than it is to be alive while her kids grow up. (I could rant some more about guys who think women's bodies exist solely to please them in some capacity or another, but I think you get the idea.)

    No, she's not a saint, and I'm sure the idea that this could bring her good publicity crossed her mind at some point (honestly, in her line of work I'd be surprised if it didn't), but I don't think that's why she went public, because she certainly didn't have to--she did it (in the NYT, no less, pretty much the American paper of record) so that people could learn about this, get the conversation going (as it were), and with any luck at all save lives. I can picture her thinking "You know, if this saves even one or two other women's lives so they can be there for their kids, too, then fuck it, it's worth coming out," and then doing it. There's probably at least one woman out there right now making an appointment who'll find out she has the gene, or has early-stage cancer, and gets treated in time, and isn't that what's important here?

(On a purely selfish level, they should realize that paying for that is still a lot cheaper than long-term cancer treatment...)

    Ovarian cancer survivor and huge AJ fan here. I caught a lucky break and survived stage III/IV (according to my records) ovarian cancer. It was found during emergency exploratory surgery. It almost got me and I had no real symptoms. Long story short, it's almost 10 years later and the only test I get is a simple blood test for CA 125. I think they do it once or twice a year. It's a protein that needs to be tracked over time to be usable. Ask your doctors about this test.

    I'm glad she's bringing attention to this. She's in a great position to do this and her heart's in the right place.

    I meant to also say an ex-boyfriend's mom has 1 breast removed due to breast cancer. Now this was in the early 90s. She never opted for an implant bc her husband never changed the way he touched her or loved her and she didnt feel like she needed it. She actually showed me her chest and I just thought how incredibly brave and strong she was. She said it was only bc her hubby really supported her through it. Now I think about all these asshole guys that are commenting how the breast removal is the greatest single tragedy of life.

  50. Borg Queen12:09 PM

    Another thing it is good that AJ came out with this and make it a national discussion. She luckily has access to good insurance and medical care. Most insurance companies wont pay for the preventative testing so maybe this can change. I know a woman kicked out of the hospital 2 days after having her breast removed bc the insurance wouldnt pay for a longer stay. thats just terrible. But Viagra is fully covered by insurance.

    Good for her. I had my ovaries removed a couple of years ago for the same reason--a bad BRCAI gene. My sister and my grandmother both died of ovarian cancer. I plan on having a double mastectomy as well in the near future. I think it's good of her to try to educate people on this.

    Maybe Brad Pitt should reconsider marrying her. Going from Jennifer BLANDiston to Jolie was a great upgrade. But if the woman can't breast feed a grown man then he needs to reconsider his options.

    There is nothing funny about this at all. Shame on you, Enty, for trying to make this into a gossipy snark. My mom had ovarian cancer. She was one of the very few lucky ones whose OvCa was discovered very early. Most are not. So Angelina is doing EXACTLY the right thing in having the surgery. And she is not fueling the media frenzy, the media is quite capably doing that all by themselves. But, the more it is talked about, the more women's lives might be saved. So stop with the hate - it really makes you look like a complete jerk!!

    I've had a hysterectomy. It's not fun, no matter what they say about laparoscopic surgery being easier. She's determined not to die like her mother did. I also think she's raised awareness about cancer and its genetic markers, so she gets a pass from me on all her weird BS, even for that damn kickstand leg thing.

    most of the women who have their level of awareness raised won't have the money to do what Jolie did. even folks with insurance often can't absorb the co-payments. so part of what she is doing is saying, here is the danger, i can afford to do something about it.
