In observance of Human Rights Day, Angelina Jolie has taken to Newsweek to let the the Obama administration know that it’s not doing enough for the Darfur region of Sudan, where “government supported militia have left 300,000 dead and 2.7 million people internally displaced.”

In hopes of bringing down corrupt Sudanese leaders, the 34-year-old UNHCR Goodwill Ambassador writes, “I believe President Obama and his special envoy Scott Gration will do their best to bring peace to the region. Their policy, though, raises a number of questions. How is the Obama administration’s approach to Sudan an evolution of justice? In addition, when the administration says it intends to work to ‘improve the lives of the people of Darfur,’ I would like to know what that means, besides the obvious point that their lives could hardly get worse.”

Since stepping into the spotlight on season four of American Idol, Carrie Underwood has grown up a lot and learned some tough lessons - and now she’s telling Esquire what she’s learned!

Here’s what the 26-year-old singer had to share:

On being scared to leave home: “I was so nervous when I was on my way to L.A. I’d never been on a plane, and I was going alone. I kind of got teary-eyed. My dad was driving, and he said, “If you want to go home, we can go home, and you never have to think about this again.” And I thought, If I don’t go, I’m choosing for this not to happen. It will be my choice. So I figured it would be easier for me to get kicked off American Idol than to have it be my own decision.”

On releasing “Jesus, Take the Wheel”: “[P]eople started saying, Oh, it’s kind of risky. You’re coming out with a religious song. And I was thinking, Really? I grew up in Oklahoma, I always had a close relationship with God. I never thought it was risky in the least. If anything, I thought it was the safest thing I could do.”

On whether “Cowboy Casanova” is about the Dallas Cowboys quarterback: “No. I would never immortalize a guy that did me wrong. I would never give him that much credit.”

Snoop said, “Its really because when I be riding the car and I be hearing the boring ass lady that be doing all the time it bothering me. She’s always turning my music down and being like, ‘turn left, go right, straight ahead.’”

“It’s been bittersweet and humbling to let her lead, and to try not to be perfect myself.”

The 45-year-old actress is having the the best year of her career with two huge hits (The Proposal and The Blind Side), plus Oscar buzz.

Sandra hopes that the ticket sales for The Blind Side will result in more well-told stories starring grown women. "Sexism is everywhere," she says. "Ageism is everywhere. But you know what? It's about making money. And look at what Sarah Jessica Parker did with Sex and the City. Look at what Meryl Streep is doing every other week! The proof is in the pudding. I didn't have the 'Oh my God, I'm not working because I'm 40.' I was working when I was 40. I've never had this many opportunities in my lifetime."
