HOLLYWOOD
-
Jon Voight
has hailed his estranged daughter
Angelina Jolie
for using her super stardom to help disadvantaged people, and not falling into the Hollywood vanity trap.
The
Midnight Cowboy
actor, who famously fell out of favor with
Jolie
after he publicly criticized her, is disgusted by the way society turns film stars into demigods.
But the 67-year-old is proud his daughter, who is expecting her first biological child with boyfriend
Brad Pitt
, uses her fame to draw attention to globally important issues.
He tells the
New York Post
, "All of us break the rules, the Ten Commandments. We set up idols. We're not supposed to have idols.
"What do movie stars do with all that success, money, white-hot spotlight and fame? It's distortion. An unnatural state.
"
Angie
has found a way. She's overcoming it with causes. Investing her celebrity to help others.
"Look, Hollywood stars aren't up all night with sick kids or troubled husbands because, 'If I don't get sleep, I won't look good.' Beauty is their god."
