Angelina Jolie Has Chicken Pox And Still Perfect Skin

Angelina Jolie has a mild case of chicken pox, she announced in a video on the Universal Pictures YouTube channel. As a result, she won’t be able to do any promotion for her new film, Unbroken, for at least a few days.

Theory: This is a brilliant marketing strategy for Universal, since “Angelina Jolie Has Chicken Pox And Still Perfect Skin” is a much grabbier headline than “Angelina Jolie Shows Up To Film Premiere,” which is something that’s happened dozens of times.

Unbroken will be in theaters on Christmas Day. Watch the trailer below:
