Angelina Jolie and Brad Pitt Spotted Vacationing in Vietnam
Amid all the rumors surrounding Angelina Jolie's health, she is obviously not allowing the negative reports to ruin her Christmas celebrations as she was spotted vacationing with husband Brad Pitt in Vietnam.
According to E! News, the couple flew to the Asian country for a short but definitely worth it vacation. Not only is Vietnam a place close to the couple's hearts because they have been to the country several times already, but mainly because it is the birthplace of Pax, their 12-year-old son.
Pitt and Jolie adopted Pax Thien in 2007 and since then have said in interviews that Vietnam is a place they consider a huge part of their lives.

One of Hollywood's golden couples, they were spotted in the capital city of Hanoi on a speedboat with some of the locals. They sped off in Ha Long Bay, enjoying the wind and sun. As fans already know, they usually dress casually when out of the red carpet and as they both sported sun glasses, as they smiled at the cameras.
Just the week before Christmas, the Jolie-Pitt clan was also seen vacationing in Cambodia, which is another country that the couple love. It is where Maddox, their first child, was born. Maddox Chivan was adopted in 2001, and while it was only Jolie who initially adopted him, Pitt also took him in.
At the moment, Jolie is busy directing a Netflix movie that is largely based on "First They Killed My Father: A Daughter of Cambodia Remembers," Loung Ung's memoir. Ung is a human rights activist who grew up as a child soldier when Khmer Rouge was reigning over Cambodia back in the 70s.
In a statement released in July, Netflix said Maddox will play a huge part in the production, just as he helped with his parents' recent movie, "By the Sea."
When asked to comment about the new movie she is working on, Jolie said Ung's book helped open her mind even deeper to the understanding of children who saw and first-handedly experienced the atrocities of war, adding that, "It helped me draw closer still to the people of Cambodia, my son's homeland."
