Angelina Jolie claims that she has been inspired by the Princess of Wales, Lady Diana. "Princess Diana inspired me immensely," Jolie reportedly said. "I followed the work she undertook very closely, especially the issue of landmines,” Jolie said. “It was fascinating that she chose that cause. No matter what I do, I always want to go to refugee camps and meet with the most unfortunate. I have found it a privilege- a way of making me feel alive."

Angelina Jolie is currently working in Prague on a film titled "Wanted." Diana was just remembered this weekend on what would have been her 46th birthday in a marvelous event organized by her two sons Prince William and Prince Harry.

Over 60,000 fans attended the star-studded concert Sunday. The princes took the stage before the show, Harry with a rousing "Hello, Wembley" while William said the event "is about all that our mother loved in life - her music, her dancing, her charities and her family and friends".
