Albany Mayor Meets Angelina Jolie
What do you do when you’re the mayor of Albany, New York? If you’re Albany Mayor Jerry Jennings, you head over to the SALT set and check out the filming!
“Is everything all right?” Jennings asked the boss, adding, “If it’s not inconvenient, I’d like to welcome Angelina to the city.”
Jolie walked over dressed in jeans, a cap covering her hair and a light-colored coat for the scene where she jumps off a truck shook Jennings’ hand and told him she enjoyed her stay in Albany.
He knew the actress was staying the night and suggested, if she needed anything, to let him know. She said “Brad (Pitt) was coming over and they were going to take it easy, stay in the hotel room and watch the fight,” referring to the Manny Pacquiao-Ricky Hatton light-welterweight championship from Las Vegas, Jennings said.
Jolie invited Jennings to stay for some of the shooting. He declined, saying he had other commitments. But, before he walked away, the mayor posed with the star for a photo on his cell phone.
How sweet is this story from the Times Union? You can read the rest of it on their site - but I absolutely love this one!
In other news, I’m likely going to be offline for a good portion of tomorrow - my son is having a tonsillectomy and I’m sure it’s going to be a long day - but if there’s any new news or photos I’ll snag it later in the evening!
