Angelina would intimately kiss her brother and wear a vial of Billy Bob Thornton's (her second husband) blood around her neck, but that's only what fans saw in public.

What "certain things" is she talking about?

"I was hoping you'd miss that!" Angie said with a laugh.

"Nothing I want to go into a lot of detail about," she explained, "but I think people can imagine that I did the most dangerous and I did the worst — and for many reasons I shouldn't be here."

And the now mother of six says she really was in that dark of a place, but has now moved on.

"You think of those too many times where you came close to too many dangerous things, too many chances taken too far," she said.
