*Angelina Jolie has turned to the real life Olivia Pope for help with her highly publicized divorce from Brad Pitt.

According to People.com, the actress has hired famous crisis manager Judy Smith, who inspired Kerry Washington’s character in Shonda Rhimes’ ABC series “Scandal.”

“Judy and her firm have a long history of handling issues that have unfortunately garnered too much attention in the public eye, and she knows how to push towards resolutions that are swift and discreet,” a source told People, who first reported the story.

“She is typically a calming non-combative influence,” a source tells E! News. “Certainly seems like someone to give better advice than what she has been apparently been getting.”

Jolie will join a list of high-profile celebrities, including Michael Vick, Paula Deen and Monica Lewinsky, who also needed “the fixer” to manage the media frenzy surrounding their various scandals.
