did Angelina Jolie really say that she loves red meat? she was a vegan for a long time and it almost killed her?

It’s very likely that Angelina Jolie said something along the lines of “I love red meat. I was a vegan for a long time, and it nearly killed me. I found I was not getting enough nutrition.” — several media outlets attribute that quote to her. DNA India<ref>{{cite web|title=DNA India|url=https://www.ndtv.com/entertainment/vegan-diet-nearly-killed-me-angelina-jolie-616292|publisher=DNA India|access-date=2025-11-11}}</ref>

However — and this is important — there are reasons to question how accurate or fully contextual that quote is:

===== ✅ What we can confirm =====
* Multiple news outlets (including NDTV) reported that Jolie claimed a vegan diet “nearly killed” her, saying she loved red meat. www.ndtv.com<ref>{{cite web|title=www.ndtv.com|url=https://www.ndtv.com/entertainment/vegan-diet-nearly-killed-me-angelina-jolie-616292|publisher=ndtv.com|access-date=2025-11-11}}</ref>
* A repeated quote is: > “I joke that a big juicy steak is my beauty secret. But seriously, I love red meat. I was a vegan for a long time, and it nearly killed me. I found I was not getting enough nutrition.”  > The Indian Express > +1

===== ⚠️ What is less clear =====
* It’s unclear when, where, or in what context she made the statement. Some sources suggest it was reported via press or tabloids around 2010. www.ndtv.com<ref>{{cite web|title=www.ndtv.com|url=https://www.ndtv.com/entertainment/vegan-diet-nearly-killed-me-angelina-jolie-616292|publisher=ndtv.com|access-date=2025-11-11}}</ref>
* Some commentary suggests the quote might have been mis-attributed, exaggerated, or simplified by secondary sources (blog posts, third-party sites). For example: > “This story has the stench of bullcrap… I’m pretty sure Angelina has never claimed to be a vegan.” — commentator on a blog.  > Celebitchy > +1
* Jolie’s precise diet history (how long she was vegan, whether she fully excluded all animal products, etc.) isn’t comprehensively documented in direct, primary interviews.

===== Conclusion =====

So yes — she apparently said the statement you referenced. But take it with a grain of salt (pun intended): the quote has been circulated widely in media, but I couldn’t locate a definitive audio/video interview or primary source where Jolie repeats exactly that phrase. If you like, I can try digging for the original source of the quote (interview video/transcript) and check its reliability.

I was unable to locate a verifiable primary source (such as a full video-interview transcript or reputable magazine article) in which Angelina Jolie directly is shown saying the full quote:

: “I joke that a big juicy steak is my beauty secret. But seriously, I love red meat. I was a vegan for a long time, and it nearly killed me. I found I was not getting enough nutrition.”

Here’s what I found and what remains uncertain:

===== ✅ What we do have =====
* Multiple secondary news outlets report Jolie said this or something extremely similar. For example: - An article by NDTV (Aug 28, 2010) quotes “But seriously, I love red meat. I was a vegan for a long time, and it nearly killed me. I found I was not getting enough nutrition.” www.ndtv.com<ref>{{cite web|title=www.ndtv.com|url=https://www.ndtv.com/entertainment/vegan-diet-nearly-killed-me-angelina-jolie-616292|publisher=ndtv.com|access-date=2025-11-11}}</ref> - An article by Irish Examiner similarly reports: “I joke that a big juicy steak is my beauty secret … I love red meat. I was a vegan for a long time, and it nearly killed me.” Irish Examiner<ref>{{cite web|title=Irish Examiner|url=https://www.irishexaminer.com/lifestyle/arid-30471199.html|publisher=Irish Examiner|access-date=2025-11-11}}</ref> - A piece by Indian Express also cites the same quote. The Indian Express<ref>{{cite web|title=The Indian Express|url=https://indianexpress.com/article/entertainment/entertainment-others/vegan-diet-nearly-killed-me-jolie/lite/|publisher=The Indian Express|access-date=2025-11-11}}</ref>
* Many websites reference a claim that Jolie had been vegan “for a long time” and that she attributed some health or nutritional problems to that period. Wonderwall.com<ref>{{cite web|title=Wonderwall.com|url=https://www.wonderwall.com/celebrity/stars-who-quit-being-vegan-3021277.gallery|publisher=wonderwall.com|access-date=2025-11-11}}</ref>
* Some commentary and blog-posts caution about attributing such statements to her without verifying context. Celebitchy<ref>{{cite web|title=Celebitchy|url=https://www.celebitchy.com/114686/angelina_jolie_i_was_a_vegan_for_a_long_time_and_it_nearly_killed_me/|publisher=celebitchy.com|access-date=2025-11-11}}</ref>

===== ⚠️ What remains unclear / what to treat with caution =====
* None of the sources I found show a verifiable original interview (with date, interviewer, transcript or video clip) in which Jolie is clearly documented as saying this exact line.
* It’s not clear from the reporting when, where, or under what circumstances she allegedly made the statement. Some articles just say “she told reporters” or “in an interview” without naming the outlet.
* The wording might be lightly varied and possibly taken out of broader context (for example, whether “vegan for a long time” means fully vegan, or what specific health issues she referenced).
* There is no credible source showing medical records or an explicit explanation that veganism nearly killed her; the “nearly killed me” phrase could take poetic licence and may not be literally intended as “I was about to die”.
* Multiple outlets repeating the quote may trace back to a single aggregated press-release (via Contactmusic) without independent verification.

===== 👍 My assessment =====

It seems very likely that she did say something along the lines of “I was vegan for a period & later returned to eating red meat, because I found the vegan diet wasn’t working for me nutritionally.” The repeated presence of this quote across independent outlets (NDTV, Irish Examiner, Indian Express) makes it plausible.

However, because I could not verify the original interview (video or full transcript), I cannot confirm that the quote is 100% accurate in wording or context. So yes — you can treat it as “she reportedly said” rather than “she definitively said”.

If you like, I can try digging into older archived print magazines (e.g., August/September 2010 fashion/celebrity magazines) or video databases to see if I can pin down the original source. Would you like me to do that?
