A pair of eight-year-old twins were in luck after Angelina Jolie stopped to buy a giant teddy from them.
The boys were trying to sell the bear which had been nicknamed Big Bear for $50 on a street corner in Toluca Lake in California. The actor decided to double their asking price and give them $50 each, according to TMZ.
The boys, Allen and Brandon Alexander, had apparently been waiting for an hour before but found no takers until Jolie and her own daughter Shiloh made a surprise visit in a Cadillac.
Their father Tim Alexander said the twins did not realise Jolie was a celebrity at the time but he informed them later with a reference to the film Kung Fu Panda in which Jolie plays the role of Master Tigress.
In a video posted on RDS’ YouTube, Jolie can be heard telling one of the young boys: “You are so good at doing your job. You are very good at doing your job, sweetie. You guys are so cool. It's so nice to meet you.”
