Angelina Jolie took her Goodwill Ambassadorship to New Orleans today, making the beleaguered city more beautiful just by being there.

She watched the Mardi Gras Fat Tuesday parade from the balcony of her French Quarter mansion. As costumed people walked down her street, Jolie pointed out her favorite outfits to kids Zahara and Maddox. When one man walked down the street dressed as an Oscar, Jolie yelled down at him, “That’s adorable!”

Chris Cudddihee, the walking Oscar, yelled back up to her “I'm for you, Angelina!”

Cuddihee, a manager of a clothing store in town, tells Usmagazine.com, “We happened to be walking down and we saw her open a door. I could tell it was a movie star arm coming out of there and she brought the kids out and she waved to us. I waved and I said, 'Hey you won me!’”

Cuddihee added, “That is why I wore this outfit and that made my day. We weren’t expecting to see Angelina Jolie today. Or to see Zahara and Maddox wave at us. It was pretty cool.”

Paul Broussad, a kitchen and bath designer, Cuddihee’s boyfriend who was dressed in a tuxedo to escort his “Oscar” tells Usmagazine.com, “It’s great that they are here. It’s nice to have a little glamour in this city.”
