Angelina Jolie Losing Weight Thanks to the Nintendo DS

Here is a bit of news that will get the male portion of 1UP's audience to perk their ears up a bit: Angelina Jolie not only allows her children to play videogames, but thanks to Konami's Let's Pilates for the Nintendo DS, Jolie is now reaping the benefits of the gaming age.

According to a report from SFGate.com, Jolie is using the the game to rid herself of that pesky baby weight she accumulated while carrying the twins she bore back in July. Through her son Maddox's DS, Jolie has been exercising using virtual pilates, and thanks to the loose lips of a family insider, 1UP knows that she "tries to get in an hour of pilates three times a week" and is apparently already at the hardest setting.

"My kids play video games. I let them play with toy soldiers", she said. "We don't take war and violence lightly, but we don?t hide it from anybody." The same goes for their movies -- they explain to their children that while they both may be acting violently in their movies, there is a big difference in real-life, even when playing a character like Lara Croft.
