Ha Ha! Just as i thought! The Angelina Jolie cover photo of January 2009 issue of German Cosmopolitan is an old and recycled one!
I just found an article on Gawker that exposes the whole deal!
This cover photo has been used many times before on International Cosmo issues!
The difference, as it turns out, is the dress color has continuously changed and sometimes the whole photo has been flipped vertically!

So, the question is: Why use an old photo from the archive?
Can't those guys hold a photo-shoot with Jolie and use a new photo of her?
What do you think? Tell those guys at Cosmo what you think! This is so uncool!

For example, the above photos are of the covers of Cosmo Italy - October 2003 and Cosmo Sweden - June 2005!
