It never, ever occurred to me that John Travolta and Angelina Jolie might have anything to talk about. But I forgot that Travolta is all about planes and aviation and Angelina is a pilot, private plane owner and now, with Unbroken, a director who can manage to film some really spectacular aerial scenes. So, long story short, Angelina Jolie is getting the Aviation Inspiration and Patriotism Award at the Living Legends of Aviation Awards in a few weeks. The ceremony will be held on January 16th. John Travolta will be presenting Angelina with the award. I can’t wait to hear how he mangles her name. If Idina Menzel can be Travoltified to Adele Dazeem, what would Angelina Jolie be? The Adele Dazeem Name Generator says Angelina’s Travoltified name will be… Alexandra Jernkins. YES!!!! That’s it. The Leg should now be called Ms. Jernkins.

Meanwhile, Angelina was in Las Vegas over the weekend. I’m not sure why? But while she was in town, she stopped by Bonanza Gifts with twins Knox and Vivienne and they went shopping for gag gifts.

May the force be with the Jolie-Pitts! Angelina Jolie was spotted in Bonanza Gifts shop, a Las Vegas souvenir store, on Saturday with her 6-year-old twins, Knox and Vivienne. The Oscar-winning actress purchased a bevy of toys and gag gifts, including light sabers, a plush dinosaur pillow, t-shirts, mugs, a bunch of telescope-style “freeloader forks,” and more mischievous presents.

According to an onlooker, Jolie was dressed down in neutral colors – a flowing beige sweater, jeans and big sunglasses. She was accompanied by a few other people and children; a member of Jolie’s entourage checked out at the register while the kids were allowed to pick out anything in the store. The shop manager said the star was “as normal as can be.”

Visiting this particular Sin City gift shop is also seemingly normal for Jolie. The manager said the actress-turned-director frequents the establishment to buy gag gifts for husband Brad Pitt, a known Hollywood prankster.

The Las Vegas Review-Journal says that Jolie also purchased an air gun (yikes) and a vuvuzela. I kind of wish there were photos. That’s what’s been missing from Angelina’s would-be Oscar campaign for Best Director. We need more outings with the kids! I feel like we haven’t seen Knox in a while.
