  • Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s 15-year-old daughter was known for her androgynous fashion, but she trotted out glamorous gowns for the Eternals premieres
  • She and Suri Cruise, Tom Cruise and Katie Holmes’ daughter, were tabloid darlings from the get-go, but how have their teenage years been different?

While many of us feel 2021 was stagnant and that not much changed in the world, that certainly was not the case for Shiloh Jolie-Pitt.

Not only did Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie’s 15-year-old daughter live her best life during the pandemic – catching private flights, attending film premieres around the world and shopping with her siblings – she also broke the internet with her dramatic style transformation.

Here’s how Shiloh made headlines and kept social media buzzing this year.

Back in January, we found out Shiloh had undergone quite the makeover while in lockdown. Sporting denim cut-offs, pierced ears and long locks tied up in a bun, it was a far cry from the gender-bending tomboy outfits Shiloh had sported over the years.

Fans were left confused by Shiloh’s new feminine look, especially after both parents mentioned during interviews that she thought she was “one of the boys” and went by the name “John”.

Jolie told Vanity Fair in a 2010 interview that Shiloh has been exploring gender since age three. “She wants to be a boy,” Jolie said. “So we had to cut her hair. She likes to wear boy clothes. She thinks she’s one of her brothers.”
