Angelina Jolie's daughter Shiloh Jolie-Pitt wore a dress on the red carpet for the first time at the Eternals premiere in Los Angeles on Monday. The 15-year-old student often wears slacks when joining her mother at public events, but opted for a new look as she posed outside the Dolby Theatre in Hollywood.Shiloh looked lovely in a tan hanky hem dress paired with white leather ballet flat shoes and gold anklets. Also at the event were her siblings Maddox, 20, Zahara, 16, and 13-year-old twins Vivienne and Knox. The only member of the Jolie-Pitt brood not in attendance was Pax, 17. Last year, Shiloh's father Brad Pitt was said to be 'so proud of Shiloh and who she had become' as he celebrated the teenager's 14th birthday. 'Brad is so proud of Shiloh and who she has become,' a source told Entertainment Tonight. 'He loves that she always stays true to herself and is so good to her brothers and sisters.' Meanwhile, Angelina spoke out about Shiloh's androgynous dress sense, saying her daughter considered herself to be 'one of the brothers'. 'She wants to be a boy,' she told Vanity Fair in 2011. 'So we had to cut her hair. She likes to wear boys' everything. She thinks she's one of the brothers.'Apparently coining a new fashion term, she said: 'Shiloh, we feel, has Montenegro style. She dresses like a little dude. It's how people dress there. She likes tracksuits, she likes [regular] suits.' Back in 2008 it was revealed that Shiloh had requested she be addressed as John since the age of two. Brad told Oprah Winfrey: 'She only wants to be called John. John or Peter. So it’s a Peter Pan thing. So we’ve got to call her John. "Shi, do you want…" "John. I’m John." And then I’ll say, "John, would you like some orange juice?" And she goes, "No!" 'So, you know, it’s just that kind of stuff that’s cute to parents and it’s probably really obnoxious to other people.' Addressing the name change at the time, Angelina said that there was no need to 'interpret' anything from the request. In an interview with The Daily Mail, Angelina said: 'I don’t think it’s for the world to interpret anything. She likes to dress like a boy and wants her hair cut like a boy and she wanted to be called John for a while. 'Some kids wear capes and want to be Superman and she wants to be like her brothers. It’s who she is. It’s been a surprise to us and it’s really interesting, but she’s so much more than that – she’s funny and sweet and pretty. But she does love a tie…’ Angelina and Brad welcomed Shiloh, their third child and first biological baby, in Swakopmund, Namibia in 2006.
The youngster is home schooled with her other siblings and is learning about her home country in Africa. The granddaughter of Jon Voight also likes to paint and ride her bicycle, her mother previously told Vogue.The teen is no stranger to the red carpet - she has already posed at the premieres of Maleficent: Mistress of Evil, Dumbo and Kung Fu Panda 3.But when on the carpet for those splashy events, Shiloh opted for jeans or slacks with hoodies.Shiloh and her siblings were out in force to support their mother Angelina at the Eternals premiere. The 46-year-old Oscar winner plays fierce warrior Thena, who can form any weapon out of cosmic energy, in the MCU flick, which hits US/UK theaters on November 5.Angelina made quite the fashion statement wearing a bold gold chin cuff which injected even more glamour to her already head-turning piece. The Eternals, set for release in cinemas in November, follows a race of immortal beings with superhuman powers who are secretly living on Earth.As well as starring Richard Madden, Kit Harington and Don Lee, the movie will see Jolie, Salma Hayek, Gemma Chan and Lauren Ridloff appear as superheroes too. Angelina told Extra's Samantha Harris that her kids don't talk much about her Marvel character.'I think they just find me funny,' she said, adding, 'I think someone said the other day, "Isn’t it amazing you can like fly a plane and do all the stuff at the U.N. and you can be in a Marvel movie, but you can’t make eggs?"'But there is one domestic duty she enjoys: 'Dishes, I don’t mind dishes.'And she also said she was a very hands on mom that changed diapers: 'I used to get peed on a lot, you know, when you are changing diapers and stuff and you are on the way out that was always a fun time.' As far as raising her kids, she said she tries to teach them to 'be their true selves and teaching them to be able to hold on to that… We are all born powerful… We just get a lot that breaks us down… I hope they are soft, I hope they are kind, and I hope they feel strong enough to protect that.' Nearly all of Angelina's children were present for the special event, except for her 17-year-old son Pax.She shares her six children with her ex-husband Brad, whom she is in the midst of a tense divorce battle with. Last month, DailyMail.com exclusively revealed how Jolie was trying to sell her 50% stake in the vineyard that she shared with Pitt, held through her company, Nouvel. Her move to sell - which she did this month on October 6 - was branded 'vindictive and systematic obstruction' by the actor in bitter lawsuit. The estate - now valued at $164 million - is where the couple tied the knot in 2008. Eternals will be released in U.S. and UK theatres on November 5, 2021.

'My kids are all mixed with vintage, and in my old Oscars dress. We did all vintage and upcycled my old stuff,' she said.Jolie also pointed out that, although her children had not viewed Eternals up to that point, they were not very fond of her costume in the feature.

The Salt star went on to express that she was happy to see several female leads exhibiting admirable traits for the movie's viewers.'A lot of times as an actress, you're that individual strong woman, or you have one sister; you don't often have this family where you really get to know women and see all the different strengths,' she said.She added: 'Gemma's grace and elegance and the way she walks through the world. Salma's motherhood and power, and Lauren's connection and intelligence...Maybe there's something to that, that the characters weren't as far off [from ourselves].' Eternals is currently scheduled to be released to the general public on November 5th.

The actress, 46, is joined by her co-stars Salma Hayek, Gemma Chan and Lauren Ridloff, as well as fellow movie stars Jodie Comer, Halle Berry, Gal Gadot, Jennifer Hudson and Rita Moreno in ELLE's 2021 Women in Hollywood issue to celebrate 'resilient' women.The nine women are being honoured for their creative and cultural contributions, with each star gracing the cover for a series of stunning shots for the publication's November issue. Another shot sees her sporting a tailored suit and sipping on a cup of tea while held up in the air by ropes at the edge of a pool. In the issue, Jolie - who is an advocate for refugees - discusses her upcoming movie and praises The Eternal's director, Oscar-winner Chloé Zao for her choice of casting. 'A lot of times as an actress, you’re that individual strong woman, or you have one sister; you don’t often have this family where you really get to know women and see all the different strengths,' Jolie explained. Praising her co-stars, Jolie continued: 'Gemma’s grace and elegance and the way she walks through the world. Salma’s motherhood and power, and Lauren’s connection and intelligence.

As well as starring Richard Madden, Kit Harington and Don Lee, the movie will see Jolie, Hayek, Chan and Ridloff appear as superheroes too, with Grown Ups star Hayek praising director Zao for breaking mainstream stereotypes on the big screen.She reveals in the issue that when she was first contacted about the movie, she thought it was going to play a 'grandmother' type role. 'I never thought I was going to be one of the Eternals. It doesn’t happen. It’s never happened to me like that before without a fight and like, ‘I can do this, please hire me!’ When she told me I was one of them, I was like, ‘Me, Mexican, Middle Eastern? Me, in my fifties? I’m going to be a superhero in a Marvel movie?’ Sometimes as a woman, as a woman of color and with the age, you feel so overlooked,' she said. Commending Zao for 'having balls', she championed the director for 'acknowledging' her within the industry. Ridloff, whose character Makkari is deaf like her and the first deaf superhero within the Marvel universe, reveals she jumped at the chance to 'show representation' on screen in a 'refreshing' way, while Chan praises Marvel for showing diversity on a global scale with its movies. As well as The Eternals cast, the Women in Hollywood issue also features Killing Eve star Jodie Comer, who gets a stellar review from her co-stars Ben Affleck and Matt Damon in the accompanying interview for her portrayal of Marguerite in The Last Duel - a woman who accuses her husband's best friend of rape. Damon describes Comer as 'truly incredible', while noting her ability to better a filmmaker's writing with her take on a character, while Affleck gushes: 'I’m just proud to be a footnote in the Wikipedia page of her career.'She touches on how her 'confidence' has grown over the years within the film industry and the lessons she's learned as she poses for a series of playful snaps that see her kicking back in a bathtub in one shot and stepping out in front of a wind machine in a grand bedroom.
Also included in the issue is Justice League star Gadot who reflects on the mistreatment she endured on set of the 2017 release and her decision to speak out against it. Gadot accused director Joss Whedon, who has refused to comment on any allegations of mistreatment and abuse, of verbally abusing her on set and threatening her career.She questions whether she would have received the same treatment 'if I had been a man' and how she felt inclined to publicly address how she was treated in order to show people 'that it's not okay'. Berry, meanwhile, reflects on starting out her film career 'when Black women didn't really have a prominent place in the industry' and how her fight for her career has inspired the stories she wants to tell on the big screen. She is the only Black woman to have won the Academy Award for Best Actress to date. Hudson, who turns heads with her cover shot in a revealing leopard print swimsuit and colour block blazer, shares what it was like to land the iconic role of playing Aretha Franklin in the legendary singer's biopic and how Aretha had handpicked her to appear as her in the movie. While Moreno - the first Latina to win an Oscar (for Best Supporting Actress) - recalls her experience of being an activist throughout her movie career, as she calls out Hollywood for showing ageism towards older actors and actresses with typecasting. All nine women included in the stunning issue are praised for 'breaking barriers' and using their fame to actively campaign against important global issues and injustices. Jolie, who was appointed a 'Special Envoy' in 2012, works closely with the UN to support and campaign for the rights and protection of refugees, while her co-star Hayek is a prominent voice in the fight against domestic violence. Chan, meanwhile, launched the #StopESEAHate campaign here in the UK, earlier this year, following a rise in hate crimes against Asian communities. In May, she shared her concerns as she revealed on social media: 'Like many others, I worry for family members every time they leave the house or use public transport. My mum has worked for the NHS for most of her life - she and my dad have been followed and subjected to a number of verbal assaults since the beginning of the pandemic.'Whilst I’m relieved that these attacks didn’t become physical, unfortunately that is often not the case, such as the unprovoked attack on a 26 year old woman in Edinburgh last week which ended in her hospitalisation, the vicious beating of a university lecturer who was out jogging in Southampton and the physical assault of Singaporean student Jonathan Mok on Oxford Street, amongst many others. 'What’s even more concerning is that the recorded figures are likely an underestimation because many incidents go unreported, both to the police and in the media. There is an urgent need for increased awareness and support so I am proud to help launch this fund, which will provide grants to grassroots organisations supporting ESEA and broader communities.'

Jolie, special envoy for UN refugee agency UNHCR, said she hoped the book would also remind governments of their commitment to the global treaty enshrining children's civil, social, political and economic rights. 'We spent a lot of time blocking those rights, so this book is to help the kids have a tool book to say 'these are your rights, these are things you need to question to see how far you, depending on your country and circumstance, are from accessing those rights, what are your obstacles, others that came before you and fought, ways you can fight.''

Why is it the girls in Afghanistan are being harmed if they go?' she said. The book addresses identity, justice, education and protection from harm, among other issues. It provides guidance on becoming an activist, being safe and a glossary of terms and organizations.'Through the book, you have to find your own path forward, because we are very concerned about the safety of children. We don't want children just running around screaming for their rights and putting themselves in danger,' Jolie said.The book is peppered with examples of powerful young voices from around the world, including Nobel Peace Prize winner Malala Yousafzai, climate activist Greta Thunberg and 15-year-old Palestinian journalist Janna Jihad.
