Paloma Faith's Knicker Wisdom: How She Made Angelina Jolie Laugh!
EXCLUSIVE: Paloma Faith Spills Juicy Secrets About Angelina Jolie and Her Own Turbulent Past
The glamourous world of show business is never short on drama, and singer-songwriter Paloma Faith has just dished out some of the most tantalizing gossip we've heard all year! In a shocking revelation, the 44-year-old beauty revealed that she once had a chance encounter with none other than Hollywood A-lister Angelina Jolie at her former job as a sales assistant at Agent Provocateur.
According to Paloma, who appeared on The Romesh Ranganathan Show earlier this week, she was working at the high-end lingerie boutique when Angelina came in looking for some new undies. However, the usually stoic actress seemed hesitant about purchasing a pair due to their hand-wash only label. That's where Paloma comes in - with her quick wit and sassy advice!
"I told her to just rub some soap on the gussets in the bath, like you do when you're washing your hands," Paloma quipped, recalling the conversation. "And then hang them on the radiator to dry by morning. It's not exactly rocket science!"
Angelina was reportedly taken aback by Paloma's cheeky advice but ultimately laughed it off and ended up buying a bunch of underwear - no doubt inspired by the singer's infectious charm! When Romesh Ranganathan asked if Angelina had actually followed her advice, Paloma coyly replied: "I like to think she did. After all, I'm a knicker expert!"
But what really caught our attention was Paloma's own story of overcoming adversity - including a harrowing attack by an ex-partner when she was younger. The singer revealed that she had been left with a black eye and a smashed-up face after the violent incident, which involved a high-speed car chase and even a window-smashing ordeal!
"It was a very dark time in my life," Paloma confessed on her podcast Mad Sad Bad back in June. "I was just trying to survive and get through each day."
However, what's truly inspiring about Paloma is that she refused to let the experience define her. Instead, she's chosen to use it as fuel for her own empowerment - including a clever encounter with her ex at an underwear shop (where else?!) that left him stunned!
"I saw him driving past and he got out of his car," Paloma recalled. "He asked if I'd like to go for a drink after work, so I agreed. But when it came time to leave, I just bluntly told him I found him boring!"
The look on her ex's face must have been priceless! According to Paloma, the encounter left her feeling like she'd finally taken back control of her life - and it's clear that this feisty songstress isn't afraid to speak her mind.
So there you have it - a dash of Tinseltown glamour, a pinch of sassy advice, and a whole lot of attitude from one of the most fascinating women in show business. Get ready for more juicy revelations from Paloma Faith - she's just getting started!
