Actress Angelina Jolie wouldn't rule out a career in politics if she felt she could be effective while in office.

The Salt star is known for her humanitarian work around the world and while she previously denied she would ever run because of her "skeletons in the closet," she is now open to the idea.

She says, "I wonder if by now if my skeletons are out. They're probably all out.

"You know, if I thought I'd be effective, I would. But I'm not sure if I would ever be taken seriously in that way, and be able to be effective."
