If not, I wonder if she minds this product bearing her name. So is this product officially recommended by Angelina Jolie? If not, I wonder if she minds this product bearing her name.

Not quite goatse.cxy but definitely goatse.nsual. Hey, I remember survival kit paraphernalia from the 80s that included little rubbery suction devices intended to suck out venom without a person acting as sucker and accidentally ingesting the venom when it comes out. If this product doesn't work as advertised, they could be marketed as Angelie Jolie branded venom suction devices. Anyway, if that actually worked, couldn't you just draw your own lip into your mouth for a few hours until it was as large as you wanted? I assume that people would have worked this out for themselves decades or centuries ago if the desired result was worth more than the side effects.

I await the first case report of someone going to the ER with their tongue stuck in the suction ball.
