The mother-of-six is hugely talented, having just directed new movie Unbroken, but not in the kitchen
Angelina Jolie has admitted that she can’t even cook the most basic ingredients in a shocking confession.
The Oscar-winning star can direct big budget Hollywood films, not to mention manage six children and a husband as well as being a huge charity campaigner – but cook spaghetti? Forget it.
Angelina, 39, previously revealed that her family did not want her in the kitchen on Christmas day because of her poor culinary skills, has now revealed that she can sometimes knock up fairly elaborate dishes but some of the most basic steps – she can’t do.
"I'm one of those people, I can learn this random exotic meal ... a really interesting Afghan dish with eggplant but I don't know how to make basic spaghetti,” she told TODAY.com.
It's not just her lack of cookery skills that stops her from cooking as often, with the 'Maleficent' actress admitting that she doesn't have the patience.
The Unbroken director said previously: "Nobody in my house wants me to do any cooking on Christmas Day. I have no patience! I start things and then I get distracted and l go and I'll start reading over there, or start playing outside with the kids.
"I think you have to be very patient to cook, I'd be designated to the chopping board! Brad would be really good at the timing and organisation."
Angelina also joked that Brad, 51, told her "not to bother" learning to cook after he tasted the dishes she had made and insisted 11-year-old son, Pax, is a better cook than her.
She shared: "Now that I'm officially a wife, I said to Brad that I was going to try to learn to cook properly. He said, 'Don't bother'... he's tasted my cooking!
"I'm not the best cook. Pax is a better cook than me. Pax likes to cook. But I try to when I can. Any house that we're in, we all chip in.
"But the kids are very sweet ... so enthusiastic anytime I cook. Especially Maddox, he's just this little man that's very supportive of me - it's like he's raised me a bit. So I cooked them all breakfast before school this morning, and he has that kind of 'Thanks, Mom! Good job!'"
