However, she allegedly discusses her interest in bizarre sex games, claiming that taking part in sexual activity where people get hurt is “just a cool thing”.
Jolie, who has three adopted children, a biological daughter and is expecting twins with actor partner Brad Pitt, has spoken out about her past substance abuse before, once saying, “I hate heroin because I’ve been fascinated with it. I’m not immune, but I won’t do it now, at all.”
It is not known if the video referred to in The Sun newspaper is the same video reported as up for sale by the National Enquirer.

Jolie’s doctor crusades
ANGELINA Jolie’s pediatrician has slammed Australia’s adoption laws, branding them “uncooperative” and calling for urgent change.
New York-based Dr Jane Aronson, who founded the Worldwide Orphans Foundation, has been closely following the adoption campaign, spearheaded by actress Deborra-lee Furness.
Aronson wants Australia, along with the United States, to establish a ministry for adoption.
“There should be a government department that’s completely devoted to international adoption - and there isn’t,” said Dr Aronson, who has specialised in international adoption medicine since the early 1990s.
Furness believes a dedicated department would help to improve the system and provide strong leadership.
“I support the initiative because I think the international adoption issue is a big enough world crisis to merit this sort of attention,” she said.
Dr Aronson, who has evaluated more than 6000 orphans from 20 countries, has gained a high profile in recent years as pediatrician to Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt’s adopted children.
She met Furness three years ago.
“I feel so lucky to have met Deb,” Dr Aronson said.
“We did some work in Kenya. We really talked a lot about kids without homes and I feel incredibly grateful that she took this issue on.”
Furness and husband, actor Hugh Jackman, have become an integral part of the Worldwide Orphans Foundation, often hosting gala fundraisers.
Furness said Aronson was an inspiration.
“Jane was very helpful to me when I was setting up a foundation, (at www.rafikisociety.com) to work with orphanages in Africa.
“She sent out some of her “orphan rangers” to assist the work we were doing with SHERP an orphanage for handicapped kids in Kenya.
“I so admire the great work she is doing throughout the world, working in AIDS clinics and with the granny program.”
Dr Aronson said she was shocked at the obstacles that Furness and Jackman encountered when they tried to adopt in Australia.
“It’s shameful and it’s wrong that they couldn’t adopt in their own country,” she said.
But Dr Aronson, who works tirelessly to tackle the challenge posed by the health care of orphans around the world, said the US system was far from perfect.
“Why adopting never works out well … is because there is no single body that’s set up in the government and committed to just adoption,” she said.
“You have to create a whole different structure. None of us can turn around to our country and say we have a great system. We don’t.
“Australia, like most countries, has an anti-adoption attitude. “Meanwhile, you have tens of thousands of individuals who would like to create a family through adoption.”
Furness agreed, but was pleased with recent progress, including the Federal Government’s establishment of a peak national body.
“I want to acknowledge the calibre of the people chosen for the peak body, who have all been working tirelessly for years in bettering the system,” Furness said.
She also thanked the Rudd Government, including Attorney-General Robert McClelland, for their ongoing support in her campaign.

Angelina Jolie & James McAvoy Star In ‘Wanted,’ Coming This June
Based upon Mark Millar’s explosive graphic novel series and helmed by stunning visualist director Timur Bekmambetov—creator of the most successful Russian film franchise in history, the Night Watch series— Wanted tells the tale of one apathetic nobody’s transformation into an unparalleled enforcer of justice. In 2008, the world will be introduced to a hero for a new generation: Wesley Gibson.
25-year-old Wes (James McAvoy) was the most disaffected, cube-dwelling drone the planet had ever known. His boss chewed him out hourly, his girlfriend ignored him routinely and his life plodded on interminably. Everyone was certain this disengaged slacker would amount to nothing. There was little else for Wes to do but wile away the days and die in his slow, clock-punching rut.
Until he met a woman named Fox (Angelina Jolie).
After his estranged father is murdered, the deadly sexy Fox recruits Wes into the Fraternity, a secret society that trains Wes to avenge his dad’s death by unlocking his dormant powers. As she teaches him how to develop lightning-quick reflexes and phenomenal agility, Wes discovers this team lives by an ancient, unbreakable code: carry out the death orders given by fate itself.
With wickedly brilliant tutors—including the Fraternity’s enigmatic leader, Sloan (Morgan Freeman)—Wes grows to enjoy all the strength he ever wanted. But, slowly, he begins to realize there is more to his dangerous associates than meets the eye. And as he wavers between newfound heroism and vengeance, Wes will come to learn what no one could ever teach him: he alone controls his destiny.
