Angelina Jolie sat down with NBC’s Ann Curry for a chat to promote her new movie, A Mighty Heart.

The interview is scheduled to air this morning on the Today show.

Here is an excerpt from their chat.

On Lies In The Media:

Ann Curry: So if I asked you, for example, right now what’s something that’s untrue that you would like to say right now is not true, you wouldn’t know what was untrue that was written about you?

Angelina Jolie: No.

Nothing?
No. I mean, I can assume. You know, I know there’s a cycle of certain things that they keep rewriting or whatever, but I can - and I can assume things made up. But - but, no, I haven’t - I haven’t a clue. You know? I - (LAUGHTER) and - and why - why would I, you know? There’s nothing - there’s nothing I have to hide or defend. Or - you know, I’m gonna live my life. And there are gonna be times when people wanna try to attack me and I don’t know why, but they will. And that’s okay. And this-

It’s okay?

Well, there are other things I’m more concerned about. My kids are healthy. I have a lot I want to do in this world. Before I do, I wanna do a lot of things as a woman, as a mom, and - and that’s my focus. At the end of the day, I’m gonna - I’m gonna be dead one day. And what people say about me is gonna be what I accomplished and what I did in my life and how my children are. And I don’t think it’s gonna be whatever was…

Is there anything you’d like to say to people listening now because you now have an unedited audience here - an unedited opportunity to give people to unvarnished truth about who you are and what you stand for. Is there anything that you want to say about yourself?

No. I mean… I have always been honest about who I am, and I’ve always been very outspoken to press. I think people have heard a lot from me (LAUGHTER) over the years. And - and you do hear more, you know?… People wanna believe negative things, they will. And I can’t - I can’t - you know, I can’t help that.
