Angelina Jolie made a stunning appearance at the 77th Tony Awards, accompanied by her daughter, Vivienne Jolie-Pitt. The actress graced the red carpet in a beautiful teal velvet dress, while her daughter opted for a stylish blue tuxedo vest and matching pants.
Jolie, who is a producer on the Tony-nominated musical adaptation of S.E. Hinton’s novel ‘The Outsiders,’ is set to present at the ceremony. The production has been a special collaboration for Jolie and Jolie-Pitt, who worked as a production assistant on the project.
Reports suggest that Jolie-Pitt had her surname shortened to Jolie for the playbill of the Broadway production, amidst the ongoing legal battle between Jolie and her ex-husband, Brad Pitt. The former couple, who share six children, including Maddox, Pax, Zahara, Shiloh, and twins Vivienne and Knox, have been in the process of finalizing their divorce since 2016.
Shiloh Jolie-Pitt, the couple’s daughter, reportedly filed to change her name to ‘Shiloh Jolie’ on her 18th birthday, seeking to distance herself from her father, Brad Pitt. In a recent lawsuit, Jolie alleged that Pitt’s history of physical abuse began before a well-publicized incident in 2016, where he was reportedly violent towards Jolie and their children.
