Long before Brad Pitt came along, Angelina Jolie fell head over heels for Japanese American model Jenny Shimizu after they met on a film set

Shimizu rose to fame in the 90s as a model for CK One, worked with Versace, Prada, Jean Paul Gaultier and Donna Karan, and was in one of Madonna’s music videos

Rumour has it that Angelina Jolie may be in a new relationship – if recent media reports are anything to go by.

Apparently, talk of a possible romance between Jolie and composer Justin Levine have set “the Broadway community” alight in recent weeks as the pair work together on the musical adaptation of The Outsiders, according to Perez Hilton.

While it’s unclear whether the speculation has any basis in fact, Jolie has remained tight lipped about her personal life since her highly publicised split from Brad Pitt – so it’s unlikely she’ll be divulging much about her love life to the press any time soon.
