Every time I publish a photo I make my face more fun. It is my way of self-expression, a kind of art."My followers know that this is not my real face."I had no interest at all to be like Angelina Jolie , and I did not want to look like the character from 'Corpse Bride'."That was not my aim."She is not the first Iranian influencer to fall foul of the country's strict laws.Three years ago 12 people were sent to prison having been targeted by the government's effort to hunt down anti-Islamic posts made online.

At Thursday's press conference for the movie, which followed the European premiere on Wednesday night, Angelina and Elle mused about the film's creation of female role models.'We show very diverse types of women within our characters, but also we have extraordinary men in the film and I really want to press that fact,' Angelina told press.'Very often in a story that is told about a strong woman she has to beat the man, or she has to be like the man or she has to somehow not need the man and we both very much need and love and learn from the men and so I think that’s also an important message for young girls to find their own power but also to respect men and women'. 'I think for me I felt a real responsibility to do the second film,' Elle continued.'For me it was the first film I had done of that scale, probably the only one I’d done of this scale, so young kids saw the film and young girls would come up to me and say you’re Aurora and they would look at me as the character.''I’ve never had that with a character before and hearing that we were doing a sequel I felt a responsibility to those girls for sure, and I was so excited to get to show Aurora as a young woman and grown up.; 'It was so fun to come back...Our relationships have grown and changed, I’m 21 now, I’m older I wasn’t the kid on set anymore.''I felt accepted on set in a way, especially with Michelle and Angelina, they looked at me, it was an amazing feeling because it felt like they included me, I was one of their peers and that was a really special feeling to feel that way.'Maleficent: Mistress Of Evil opens in UK cinemas on October 18.
