Angelina Jolie put her best foot forward -- literally! -- at Sunday's 84th Annual Academy Awards in L.A.
Wearing a custom Atelier Versace gown that featured a thigh-high slit, the 36-year-old actress oozed confidence on the red carpet. "I wanted to be comfortable and I feel sexy in black velvet," Jolie told Us Weekly.

While presenting the awards for Best Original Screenplay and Best Adapted Screenplay, the In the Land of Blood and Honey director struck a sultry pose onstage, which The Descendants screenwriter Jim Rash publicly mocked after his big win.
Jolie's over-the-top posing wasn't the only thing that stood out at the star-studded ceremony: her increasingly thin appearance became a topic of concern on Twitter. According to The Academy, Jolie's bondy body ignited 3,399 tweets per minute.
"Dear Angelina Jolie. . .eat something," wrote singer-songwriter Bonnie McKee.

Echoed Real Housewives of Atlanta star Pheadra Parks: "Angelina Jolie is beautiful but she needs a lil' more meat on those bones!" The Bravo star also suggested that the mother-six eat "some biscuits and Popeyes chicken."

Obviously there are health related issues for being too thin and for being too big. Like Jolie, there's always heavy emphasis on being too thin. It changes with the generations. Its all about the voluptuous Kim K women right now. Critics and media outlets are promoting a fuller look, persuaying viewers that Jolie is in fact too skinny. Personally I adore angelina and her look, however she did look pale and lean. notHING NEw tho

OMG! She's always been skinny and always will be! Haters just wishing they had her metabolism. Or her courage to eat the right food. Great post Jen37. Said it perfectly!

Don't care she always looks in need of a bath or food. Don't care for her or her NASTY partner. Only in Hollywood.

And if she showed up at the oscars 30 pounds heavier she still would've been critisized for her weight...the media will always find ways to pick at any actress about their weight,they're either too skinny or too fat..if they're too skinny and they end up gaining weight then they're fat,if they're too heavy and they lose weight then they have an eating disorder...they're damned if u do,damed if u don't with u guys in the media...

No, I'm not concerned. I thought Angie looked beautiful but she had no calves, no meat. And I do think that is unhealthy.

If u go back and look at her in the movie Salt and compare that to now she actually looks heavier now! Bottom line is if she's happy with how she looks that's all that matters.

The black dress gave her an emiciated look. She wore white on the SAG Awards and looked somewhat healthy~

@blackindiangirl, I NEVER compared Octavia to Angelina, its impossible because theres obviously NO comparision between them. If your gonna read my comment, at least get it right. I was TALKING ABOUT THE PPL on here who post rude things about Angelina because shes too thin and not looking healthy, but NO ONE says anything about Octavia for being heavy (and possibly UNhealthy), and if someone does everyone gets outraged and offended.
