Vanessa Vance from Reel.com noted, "Angelina Jolie gained wide recognition for her role as the titular Gia, and it's easy to see why. Jolie is fierce in her portrayal—filling the part with nerve, charm, and desperation—and her role in this film is quite possibly the most beautiful train wreck ever filmed."[url=https://algassania2.mam9.com/l%20cite_note-20][u][color:8aab=#0000ff][21][/u][/color][/url] For the second consecutive year, Jolie won a Golden Globe and was nominated for an Emmy.

While shooting [i]Gia[/i], she told her then-husband [url=https://algassania2.mam9.com/wiki/Jonny_Lee_Miller][u][color:8aab=#0000ff]Jonny Lee Miller[/u][/color][/url] that she would not be able to phone him: "I'd tell him: 'I'm alone; I'm dying; I'm gay; I'm not going to see you for weeks.'"[url=https://algassania2.mam9.com/l%20cite_note-Angelina_Jolie_interviews_featuring_Jonny_Lee_Miller-21][u][color:8aab=#0000ff][22][/u][/color][/url]
