Jolie.

My inspirational celebrity woman of 2011 has to be Angelina Jolie.

Jolie is not only a mother to a small brooding army of children, but she is also a devoted humanitarian aid worker. What makes her more amazing is that she doesn't get have an army of nannies to look after her children, or she doesn't just send money to poor countries and hope it reaches the right people, but she actually puts in the time and hard work to look after her children and help poor parts of the world, with the help of Brad Pitt of course.

I don't know what first got me really interested in Jolie,because I've never shown any interest in her prior to 2011, but I don't think this amazement with her and what she does will change anytime soon.
