We already know how stunning the Jolie-Pitt clan is. And now we get to revel even more in their beauty as they grace the pages of next month’s Vogue. All six kids (Maddox, Zahara, Shiloh, Pax, Knox and Vivienne) model in the photo shoot, along with their parents, Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie.
The matriarch of this modern family models in an oversize black + white sweater on the cover. And inside, Jolie speaks about a variety of topics, including getting older, her health and her upcoming movie with Pitt called By the Sea.
On turning 50 years old: “I feel grounded as a woman. I know others do too. Both of the women in my family, my mother and my grandmother, started dying in their 40s. I’m 40. I can’t wait to hit 50 and know I made it.”
On having a double mastectomy: “It really connected me to other women. I wish my mom had been able to make those choices. It’s hard. They are not easy surgeries. The ovaries are an easy surgery, but the hormone changes. We did joke that I had my Monday edit. Tuesday surgery. Wednesday go into menopause. Thursday come back to edit, a little funky with my steps.”
About By the Sea: “This is the only film I’ve done that is completely based on my own crazy mind. [For years, Brad and I called the script] ‘the crazy one.’ We even called it ‘the worst idea.’ As artists we wanted something that took us out of our comfort zones. Just being raw actors. It’s not the safest idea. But life is short.”
