Angelina Jolie and Her 16-Year-Old Daughter Get Matching Tattoos, Sparking Heated Controversy
Angelina Jolie has an incredible connection with her children, and she’s proudly celebrating it! The 49-year-old actress recently revealed that she and her daughter Vivienne have gotten matching tattoos, sharing the profound meaning that lies behind this special bond.
Angelina Jolie is well-known for her tattoos, but this time she has a new one alongside her and Brad Pitt’s 16-year-old daughter. Angelina and Vivienne shared a memorable experience while working together on the Broadway production of The Outsiders. To honor this special project, they chose to get matching tattoos as a meaningful keepsake.
“I got ‘Stay Gold’ with my daughter Viv during our time on The Outsiders,” Jolie shared in a recent interview with CR Fashion Book. Photos reveal Jolie’s tattoo, elegantly positioned on her inner arm, which she first showcased in April during the opening night of the Broadway play. However, the location of 16-year-old Vivienne’s tattoo remains a mystery.
The “Stay Gold” mantra holds a particularly sweet significance for the pair. Not only is it the title of a song in the musical, but it also echoes the final words spoken by one of the characters, symbolizing the importance of preserving innocence and goodness in a challenging world — a message the mother-daughter duo now proudly carries with them.
Angelina Jolie’s tattoo confession has ignited a discussion among the public. Some individuals are concerned that her daughter is still “too young.” “I thought you had to be 18 to get ink,” one person voiced their concerns. “Who lets their 16-year-old get a tattoo?” another added.
However, others are advocating for Angelina and sharing their own sweet similar memories, “I did the same thing with my mom and sisters when I was 16... Still one of my favorites,” commented a person. “She knows her daughter’s level of maturity and how her child thinks. I don’t see anything wrong with it,” another chimed in.
It appears this isn’t Jolie’s first experience getting matching tattoos with her children. “There is also a bird that I share with some of my children that is personal to us,” Jolie mentioned in addition to her revelation.
