Angelina Jolie Losing Weight Thanks to the Nintendo DS

Here is a bit of news that will get the male portion of 1UP's audience to perk their ears up a bit: Angelina Jolie not only allows her children to play videogames, but thanks to Konami's Let's Pilates for the Nintendo DS, Jolie is now reaping the benefits of the gaming age.

According to a report from SFGate.com, Jolie is using the the game to rid herself of that pesky baby weight she accumulated while carrying the twins she bore back in July. Through her son Maddox's DS, Jolie has been exercising using virtual pilates, and thanks to the loose lips of a family insider, 1UP knows that she "tries to get in an hour of pilates three times a week" and is apparently already at the hardest setting.

"My kids play video games. I let them play with toy soldiers", she said. "We don't take war and violence lightly, but we don?t hide it from anybody." The same goes for their movies -- they explain to their children that while they both may be acting violently in their movies, there is a big difference in real-life, even when playing a character like Lara Croft.

I always thought she needs to gain weight. Her bony legs looks like something you would expect from a skeleton. Not a live woman.

2 - If there is one thing that Jolie doesnt need...
... it's losing weight!

She's skinny as a stick the last few years. She looked MUCH better a bunch of years ago, when she did Gia and Tomb Raider etc.

She looks absolutely horrible nowadays. Eat some food, woman! She had the perfect body and now she looks like she hasnt eaten in weeks.

She better be playing Cooking Mama.

Its good that she lets her kids play what they want, but still talk about the difference between the real world and the virtual world. More parents should be like that.

Kudos to her for saying that and being a responsible parent, unlike many others.

...Seriously...? I had to read this title quite a few times just to see if I read it correctly. Using the Nintendo DS and not the Wii? I swear anything can make a person lose quite a few pounds nowadays.

17 - Anybody who knows enough about fitness
and exercise science knows that Wii Fit is a piece of crap. The makers have no F-ing clue what BMI means. As a avid gym/nutrition fan, I can tell you Wii Fit is garbage, I listened to the demo at a store a couple months back and they were spouting myths and misconceptions like mad, I'm all for it if it actually helps people get fit or healthy, but just know that the information is trash in there. Very disappointed with Nintendo over that product.

About this pilates game for the DS, I don't know, never heard of it, but I want to let people know Wii Fit sucks as far as accuracy of information goes.
