Angelina Jolie has a movie coming out, so that means she is opening up to the press about her personal life. Her first interview for Salt was with
Vanity Fair and in it she talked about her kids, her 4 boys and 2 girls as she describes it.
Jolie talks extensively about her children, explaining that “Mad’s a real intellectual, which I can take no credit for genetically. He’s great at school, great at history. He feels like he could be a writer or travel the world and learn about places and things. Zahara’s got an extraordinary voice and is just so elegant and well spoken. Shiloh’s hysterically funny, one of the goofiest, most playful people you’ll ever meet. Knox and Viv are classic boy and girl. She’s really female. And he’s really a little dude.â€
Jolie says that when she was growing up she was most like her daughter Shiloh: “Goofy and verbal, the early signs of a performer…. I used to get dressed up in costumes and jump around. But at some point, I got closed off, darker. I don’t remember anything happening. I think you just get hit with the realities of certain things in life, think too much, start to realize the world isn’t as you wished it would be, so you deepen. Then, as I had kids and got older—being goofy, lighter—it all came back.â€
Then according to Us Weekly she then on to talk about Shiloh’s not such girlie look, she says she looks “like a little dude. Shiloh, we feel, has Montenegro style. It’s how people dress there. She likes tracksuits, she likes [regular] suits. She likes to dress like a boy. She wants to be a boy. So we had to cut her hair. She likes to wear boys’ everything. She thinks she’s one of the brothers.”
It probably is a phase Shiloh is going through wanting to be like her big brothers. She pretty much hangs out with boys, so she just wants to be one and once she has other girls in her life, she will discover her girlie side. When I was toddler I hung out only with my boy neighbors, so I was like a little boy. But once I went to school and made some friends that were girls, I gave up my Tom Boy ways and flirted with all of those boys I used to play with and played with them in a different way.
BTW the one thing that is missing from that article is Pax, I wonder if it is in the full version. It is weird that he wasn’t mentioned in the selection they posted on their site.
Finally Angelina goes on to talk about Brad Pitt, his beard, will they ever get married and is she pregnant with baby #7. If she talked about all of this in her first interview, what is left to talk about in all of the other ones?
