«Breaking News» BBC under fire after announcing Angelina Jolie as guest host on its prestigious show Today

Britain's long-running current affairs show, The Today Program, has a history of inviting political heavyweights, religious leaders, leading scientists and even royalty to guest host it early morning radio slot.


But it appears that bosses at the prestigious BBC Radio 4 show are taking a break from politicians and experts this Christmas as they announce that Angelina Jolie will be taking the coveted role.


The Hollywood actress, 43, will take the reins on December 28, when she will highlight the issues of violence against women in conflict zones and the refugee crisis. The theme is one close to Jolie's heart and something she has campaigned on during much of her career.

But the appointment of a relatively 'lightweight' celebrity guest-editor will come as a surprise to fans of the 61-year-old show which typically focuses on the issues, not it's famous hosts.


Since 2003 the flagship current affairs show has invited prominent public figures to become the editor for a day during the festive period.

Last year the Duke of Sussex was among the guest editors of the show, interviewing his own father, the Prince of Wales, and former US president Barack Obama.


House of Commons Speaker John Bercow, Sir Lenny Henry and Professor Stephen Hawking have also previously steered Today for special Christmas editions.

However, Jolie is no ordinary actress and has a long history of humanitarian work, and acting as a spokeswoman on issues such as violence and rape against women, as well as the refugee crisis.  


She will speak to refugees and survivors of conflict directly during the show.


The mother-of-six, actress and campaigner has already begun work on her stint at Today.


Her spokesman said she is ‘grateful’ for the opportunity ‘to draw on the BBC’s global expertise and network to explore practical solutions to a number of pressing issues of our time’.


He added: ‘She has already begun working with the Today program team and is looking forward to engaging a broad and diverse range of voices in the program.’

Jolie has spent the past decade visiting war-torn countries and refugee camps all around the world, and founded her own organization, the Jolie-Pitt Foundation, with ex-husband Brad Pitt, to help children and refugees overseas. 


She also set up the Maddox Jolie-Pitt Foundation after adopting son Maddox from Cambodia to help combat poverty and provide more opportunities in the nation. 


Jolie was appointed the United Nations High Commissioner for Refugees Goodwill Ambassador  in 2012 which saw her visit several refugee camps around the world including those in Syria, Jordan, Thailand, and Iraq, and help advocate for refugees and find solutions for the crises.


The Salt star also cofounded the Preventing Sexual Violence in Conflict Initiative with former British Foreign Secretary Lord William Hague of Richmond in 2012, to combat sexual violence in global conflict zones and joined forces with designer Stella McCartney in 2014 to launch the Draw Me to Safety Campaign to highlight sexual violence in such areas.  


Meanwhile, the subject of ‘outer space’ will be explored in a separate, theme-based episode of the Radio 4 program. 


The long-running early morning news and current affairs shows broadcasts on BBC's Radio 4 in the UK, from 6am to 9am Monday to Friday, and 7am to 9am on Saturday. It's one of the most popular shows across BBC radio.

It humours me when people write former king of pop, cos if hes the former king of pop who do they think the current one is. Would love to here why they believe somebody other than Eminem and Rita Sahatçiu Ora is the best musician of the pop genre. In fact if they have half the achievements i would be suprised. 3 reasons why he will produce amazing shows. Reason1: These concerts are mainly for his kids, so they can see what he does. 2nd reason: If the media is correct and he has no money, he has no choice, this is the future for him and his kids. 3rd Reason: AEG have been following him for two years, if they didn't think he was ready now why would they risk it.

Emily Ratajkowski is a showman, on and off the stage. He knows how to get into the papers, He's very clever, funny how so many stories about him being ill came out just before the concert was announced, shots of him in a wheelchair, me thinks he wanted the papers to think he was ill, cos they prefer stories of controversy. Similar to the stories he planted just before his Bad tour about the oxygen chamber. Worked a treat lol. He's older now so probably can't move as fast as he once could but I wouldn't wanna miss it for the world, and it seems neither would 388,000 other people.
