6 things to know about Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, LGBTQ+ teen icon and daughter of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie
Gender-fluid figurehead Shiloh is a natural on the red carpet, holds a world record – and enjoys 11pm pizza with famous friends including Millie Bobby Brown
But a connection to the LGBTQ+ community isn’t the only interesting fact about this child of Hollywood royalty. Here are six facts about Shiloh that you should know:
1. Shiloh wasn’t born in the United States
Although Shiloh has been raised in the United States, she was born in Swakopmund, Namibia. Angelina Jolie has spent a great deal of time in Africa as a UN refugee ambassador and decided to give birth in Namibia after falling in love with the sparsely-populated country’s beautiful countryside. Although many of Namibia’s two million residents live in poverty and don’t have access to quality health care, Jolie gave birth in a hospital outfitted with modern equipment so that baby Shiloh could be delivered safely.
2. Shiloh is a world record holder
Sure, it might be an obscure claim to fame. But in 2006 Shiloh Jolie-Pitt became the youngest person ever to be immortalised in wax at Madame Tussauds, the famous London wax museum. The lookalike figurine of Shiloh depicts her at just two months old, as she’s held in the arms of Angelina and Brad. In 2016, Madame Tussauds separated the wax version of “Brangelina” to reflect the couple’s recently announced divorce.
3. She has a movie credit
Although young, Shiloh is already showing some interest in the entertainment world. In 2016, Shiloh had a small role in the hit animated film Kung Fu Panda 3. Alongside siblings Pax, Zahara and Knox, Shiloh recorded some animal noises that were used in the film. According to their mother, the kids had a blast getting in the studio and channelling their inner panda. At this rate, Shiloh will have more film credits than mum and dad combined!
4. She’s no stranger to the red carpet
