Angelina Jolie models for Japanese cosmetic company Shiseido

Angelina Jolie is leveraging her popularity and good image in Asia to promote cosmetics in Japan.


The Hollywood star is well known in the region on account of her charity work there and adoption of a child each from Cambodia (Maddox, 2002) and Vietnam (Pax Thien, 2007).

Jolie is all set to appear in campaigns for Japanese hair care and cosmetics producer Shiseido which claims to be the oldest cosmetics company in the world.

According to WWD, she recently flew to Los Angles to shoot for Shiseido's powder eye color and liquid eye color. The campaigns are exclusively for the Japanese market and will never be seen in the US.

It is unclear whether Jolie intends to give the money earned from her modeling to charity as she is so often inclined to do.

Jolie is currently in Prague, Czech Republic, along with Bard Pitt and her four children. She is shooting for the film Wanted which features her with Morgan Freeman and James McAvoy.

The couple with their four children arrived in Prague on 01 May 2007 and are expected to stay there for four weeks. They are likely to hop across to France to attend Cannes Film festival which takes place from May 16 to May 27.
