News broke yesterday about famed celebrity biographer Andrew Morton's new book subject, Angelina Jolie. While we had sources confirm this to us a while back, Glosslip is like the Fort Knox of secrets and we keep ours close to the vest.

Andrew Morton, who made headlines in 2008 with his controversial unauthorized Tom Cruise biography, is embarking on what might be the biggest challenge in his literary career. And that's saying something, considering Morton is the man behind the Princess Diana story, telling of her private pain as Princess of Wales, as well as having made a permanent enemy of Madonna by revealing her many controlling ways and exposing the behind the scenes secrets of Presidential mistress Monica Lewinsky. Morton has secured his place in the best-seller hall of fame with his series of thoughtfully researched (and unauthorized) biographies.

We were able to track down the reclusive writer and get a statement on this new book (which we CAN'T WAIT to read). When I asked Morton why he chose the relatively young, but attention-getting Jolie, Morton had this to say:

"AJ is one of the most fascinating women on the planet. Hers has been an extraordinary journey and it is an extraordinary story. I am looking forward to telling it."

Short and sweet, but concise. Angelina, already known for her wild behavior, strange relationships and humanitarian work, became an international celebrity sensation when she was linked to mega star Brad Pitt (when he was still married!)

There has been endless speculation and fascination surrounding Jolie's role in the demise of one of Hollywood's golden couples, Brad Pitt and Jennifer Aniston, who divorced in 2005 coincidentally, after Pitt and Jolie teamed up to work on the hit movie, Mr. and Mrs. Smith.
