New Delhi: Actress Angelina Jolie, who is promoting her first film after filing for divorce from Brad Pitt last year, features in a video that might make you a little uncomfortable. The 41-year-old actress is in Cambodia with her children -Maddox, 15, Pax, 13, Zahara, 12, Shiloh, 10, and eight-year-old twins Knox and Vivienne - where they cooked creepy crawlies - crickets, scorpions and spiders - during an interview with BBC World News. Angelina said, "I think it's always been a part of the diet (in Cambodia), the bugs, but then I think there is a truth to the survival during the war of course when people were being starved they were able to survive on things like this and they did." Angelina Jolie is promoting First They Killed My Father, the new film she's directed based on a memoir of the Khmer Rouge regime of Cambodia. Her eldest son Maddox is Cambodian.
Angelina also revealed that she ate crickets when she first visited Cambodia, from where she adopted Maddox as a baby in 2002. "Crickets, you start with crickets and a beer and then you kind of move up to tarantulas," she said.
