Angelina Jolie is like a gift that keeps on giving - from rising to Hollywood stardom in the '90s to blooming into a woman that everyone adores and loves. This time around, she landed a beautiful black and white cover of WSJ Magazine, where she was named the '2015 Entertainment/Film Innovator'.

The 40-year-old power woman gave a moving acceptance speech. In a report by E! News, she found a way to honor her late mother as well as her husband, Brad Pitt and her six children.

"When I was little, my mom used to say to me, 'Let me see your soul. When I was angry or sad or trying to express something that mattered, she would hold me and she would look me in the eyes and say that. And if I didn't know what it meant but I understood that she wanted me to drop all pretenses and just be. My children are innovators. All children are...For me, in my art of films as a director or writer, I try to listen to my mother and bear my soul and to listen to my kids and make a mess and to play and be free," she said.

Angelina Jolie is best known for never talking all the credit. Maybe that's why we have so much respect for her. You go, girl!
