Angelina Jolie too sad to eat

Actress collapses on set

Despite his best efforts, Brad hasn't been able to get Angelina Jolie to eat more, so he's stopped trying to encourage her

She’s always been slim, but when Angelina Jolie turned up for work on 18 March, onlookers were stunned by her fragile appearance. There was good reason to worry.

Now has exclusively learnt that a few hours into filming scenes for her upcoming thriller Salt, Angelina, 33, complained of dizzy spells and needed to be treated for exhaustion.

Our source reveals: ‘It all got too much for Angelina. She collapsed between takes, complaining of shortness of breath and dizzy spells.

'To be fair, it was after she’d filmed a strenuous scene in which she ran around the set, but it was still shocking to see her crumble. There was something very wrong with her fitness levels if she couldn’t handle a couple of action scenes.’

It’s the latest in a series of setbacks for Angelina, who’s stressed by her frantic family and work schedule. This is causing relationship problems with Brad Pitt, which have had a dramatic effect on her appetite.

‘She never eats properly when she’s upset,’ says a friend. ‘Food is the last thing on her mind. She’ll ignore breakfast, pick at lunch and skip dinner. Once in a while she’ll grab a snack, but nothing substantial.’

A rep for Angelina denied she'd collapsed on set.
