ANGELINA JOLIE cannot wait for her children to discover the internet - because they will find out she is a ‘cool’ actress.
The Tomb Raider star and partner Brad Pitt are parents to adopted Maddox, seven, Pax, four, Zahara, three, and biological daughter Shiloh, two, and twins Knox and Vivienne.
And Jolie is excited about her young children learning the extent of her and Pitt’s fame.
She tells the New York Times, "There’s a lot we’re going to have to explain to them about how public their family is.
"What’s going to be funny is when they think Mom and Dad are a little bit cool. Because right now, we’re not cool Mom and Dad." "The other day (son) Madd said, ‘Can you do a cartwheel?’ And I said, ‘Yeah, I can.’ And he was like, ‘Wow, Mom.’ And I thought: ‘Oh, yeah. I can do some things. You wait. You’ll find out. I’m capable.’"

LATEST: Soccer ace DAVID BECKHAM and his wife VICTORIA will talk to police about allegations of theft from their British home, according to reports.
The former Spice Girl and her husband are due to speak to officers on Saturday (18Oct08) in relation to claims against two former housekeepers.
Personal items - said to include designer clothes, sportswear, and a pair of David’s football boots - were allegedly put up for sale on internet auction website eBay.
June and Eric Emmett - who worked for the Beckhams - and a man believed to be their son, were taken into police custody and questioned earlier this week (beg13Oct08).
And despite the Emmetts pleading their innocence, the Beckhams will need to talk to officers about the incident - and may have to give evidence in court if charges are brought.
A source tells British newspaper the Daily Mirror, "Police will want to know from the Beckhams who had access to their belongings and if anything else is missing.
"It will be quite a low-key session but officers will need to get a lot of detail from the couple, because it will be needed as a witness statement.
"If anyone is charged, it is possible David and Victoria might have to give evidence in court."

JAMES BOND star DANIEL CRAIG has had the shoulder he injured on the set of QUANTUM OF SOLACE reconstructed.

Making his second Bond film was a painful experience for the actor - he also lost a pad off a finger on his right hand in a fight scene and needed eight stitches in his face when he got kicked by "a stray shoe".

JUSTIN TIMBERLAKE has turned his back on his SEXYBACK after promising fans his performance of the smash-hit at his charity show in Las Vegas on Friday night (17Oct08) was the last time he’ll sing the song live.
The pop superstar hosted a star-studded benefit show at the Planet Hollywood Theatre as part of his inaugural Shriners Hospitals for Children Open golf tournament week, and stunned fans with the news he’s retiring his signature tune.
The sell-out crowd gasped as Timberlake made the announcement before performing the song one last time.
That might have been the low point of his show, but there were plenty of highlights - Timberlake duetted with Maroon 5’s Adam Levine and the two pals attempted to beat box with 50 Cent and the pop superstar also teamed up with Lionel Richie to belt out the Commodores’ Easy.
Timberlake also welcomed Leona Lewis, Rihanna and the Jonas Brothers onto the Planet Hollywood stage.
But not every aspect of the charity show went smoothly - security men dashed to eject the cast of musical Stomp when they made an unexpected appearance in the aisles of the venue.
One audience member tells WENN, "These guys just appeared after the Jonas Brothers performed, banging their dustbins, and security panicked and tried to eject them and their bins. But it was part of the show."

MADONNA’s brother is unsurprised by the singer’s divorce - because GUY RITCHIE is a "jealous person".
Christopher Ciccone - who recently penned tell-all book Life With My Sister Madonna - spoke following the former couple’s divorce announcement on Wednesday (15Oct08).
And Ciccone admits he now regrets allowing his sister to wed the movie director.
He tells German newspaper Bild, "He is not the easiest guy to get along with.
We don’t really see eye to eye. I really have no idea what my sister loved about him. I suppose I could have tried to stop her.
"But I always wanted to welcome those people whom Madonna let into her life.
Whether it was Warren Beatty, Sean Penn or Carlos Leon.
"They were and are good friends of mine. Guy was the first who couldn’t bear how close Madonna and I were."

GUY RITCHIE’s father has branded his wife MADONNA "beastly" for her alleged concert jibes at his son following their divorce announcement.
The former couple confirmed on Wednesday (15Oct08) they will divorce after almost eight years of marriage.
John Ritchie has spoken for the first time since the split and admitted it was "horrid" to read how the star appeared to call Ritchie an "emotional retard" during a concert on her Sticky & Sweet world tour in Boston, Massachusetts on Wednesday (15Oct08).
John Ritchie says, "She is being beastly, she is saying ‘Did you ever love me?’ It goes back to a time when she fell off her horse and she’s blaming him for that. She’s calling him an emotional retard. When he’s being bashed by her.
It’s horrid." Ritchie claims his son was coping with the split by throwing himself into work.
He adds, "I haven’t spoken to Guy for a few days. He’s up to here with work."

MADONNA’s brother CHRISTOPHER CICCONE is blaming his famous sister for her marriage split - because she’s so difficult to talk to.
The interior designer, who hit the headlines earlier this year (08) with his tell-all book Life With My Sister Madonna, insists the Material Girl could still be married to director Guy Ritchie if she could only open up.
Ciccone tells U.S. TV news show Extra, "She’s not the kind of person you sit down and have a face-to-face conversation with." And he insists his sister’s ruthlessness will always wreck her romances: "You don’t get to where she is and stay there for 20 years by being sweet." Ironically, in promoting his book, the author admitted he and his soon-to-be ex-brother-in-law were never fond of each other, and accused the Brit of being "homophobic" - a claim Ritchie has denied.
Ciccone also saw the end of the marriage coming in July (08), telling British breakfast show GMTV, "I don’t know for sure one way or the other if their relationship is good but I do know things are not as good as they could be.
"Her career continues to glide up, whereas Guy’s has gotten a little bit stale. They’re two ambitious and creative people and on some level are competing." Although Ciccone is far from friendly with Ritchie, he empathises with the director: "Being married to her can’t possibly be easy. I know what it’s like living with her, growing up with her. It’s next to impossible and I wouldn’t do it." Madonna and Ritchie announced their plans to divorce after seven-and-a-half years of marriage on Wednesday (15Oct08).
