Jon Voight Learned About Angelina Jolie's Mastectomy By Reading The New York Times

Even though Jon Voight just saw Angelina Jolie a week ago, he had no idea she had gone through the procedure she described yesterday in the New York Times. Voight told The NY Daily News that he learned about the mastectomy the same way all of us did, which is by reading it online. He did say that he called her yesterday and they spoke for awhile, but he would not say what they discussed, other than her educating him more about the situation. He said that when he saw her, she looked totally normal to him and he didn't notice anything out of the ordinary.

    Sometimes, he's like a slightly more normal Michael Lohan.

    given his history of blabbing & their rocky relationship, I don't blame her for not sharing something so personal.

    you just cant trust anyone when you are keeping a big secret. He hasn't been that reliable in the past so.....

    If my dad was famous and had Alzheimer's, I'd probably keep him in the dark too until I was ready to announce what I had done. Or perhaps he was told but forgot. Alzheimer's is a bitch.

    And the first thing he does is tell the world that he didn't know about it, but has seen her and he comments in how she looks. I understand why she didn't tell him.

    He had to learn about Obama being a Muslim socialist by watching Fox News, though, so I guess the old crazy geezer's relationship with the news is pretty a mixed bag.

    Do they even speak? I never got the feeling AJ was close to her father.

    They've had a rocky relationship and have only recently begun to seemingly fix that a bit. I do not blame her for being fiercely protective over her secrecy regarding all of this.

    yeah, i thought they were estranged. i understand why she wouldnt detail to him such a emotional, intense situation until it was over.

    Really??? The way she kissed her brother on a red carpet years ago, you would figured pop gets a grope when ever he sees her. They must be good implants.

    What happened to James Haven? He's supposed to be an actor too, but I never hear about him anymore.

    The news is buried: She looked perfectly normal -- we're talking about a woman who just had a DOUBLE MASTECTOMY. Nothing about her appearance seemed out of the norm to her father.

      @Amy, I highly doubt she was flashing her father.

    AJ cut off James Haven because he became a born-again Christian. Just reading up on James Haven.

    considering he likes to talk I would have done the same thing.

    JH and AJ have the most amazing lips for white folks. But JV doesn't they must have gotten their lips from mom?

    Wasn't she a popular guess for the blind where the actress had plastic surgery? Guess there is always a nugget of truth to be found in rumors.

    Do kids ever get over being deserted by a parent for most of their childhood?
    I don't blame her one bit.

    B36, you right. She has no real relationship with him because she has no memories from growing with him because he wasnt there. Cant go back in time. U reap what u sow.

    Henriette, I read that they all got together for James' Bday 2 days ago, so I don't think she's cut him off. He seems to have become an activist.

    James is a preacher/pastor. He's pretty good friends with my little sister.

    And he just proved why she didn't tell him! I wonder if Brad's parents knew

    Well, they're not close, so it's unsurprisingly she wouldn't have told him in advance. But it's good they talked *and* that he kept the conversation proprietary.

    I didn't think she was flashing her father her breasts. But I do think a father might be likely to notice that his daughter has had both of her breasts removed, even with reconstructive surgery (all of this supposedly just happened).

    I have a similar relationship with my 'dear old dad.' My (wonderful, fortunately) grandma was the one who told him when I last needed a medical procedure. (She didn't realize I hadn't mentioned it to him.)

    I tolerate him and the stepmonster because they are better grandparents than they were parents, if you get what I'm saying.

    I give AJ a lot of shit but it's hard to come down on her for this given that the same day they talk about he alerts the media.

    I didn't know she cut out her brother, that seems cold.

    My father in law was losing his faculties and My husband and I kept news of my pregnancy from him as we didn't want him to share (i've miscarried twice before). When he died he didn't know he was getting another grandchild. In retrospect I wish we would have told him as the hope of seeing his new grandchild could have kept him alive longer.

    i have a friend who had a pacemaker put it. he's 44. he didn't tell his mom until afterwards, because she would have been there at he hospital telling everyone what to do, at home upsetting his kids, calling his wife and telling her this was because SHE wasn't doing enough around the house and it was streing her son out.

    i think for lots of families, ita easier to keep medical things private.

    And AJ learned a lot about her father the same way, since he was rarely around.

    I'd hope he wasn't looking at her boobs close enough to notice anything different about them. I am not a fan of him as a father.

    I don't blame her for keeping it private. I doubt she told too many people beforehand. She obviously had a plan on how she would release the information. Also, I am assuming she was dresses, so there was nothing for him to notice.
