“Unveiling the Secrets: What Angelina Jolie Wants You to Forget About Her Past”
Living Past 40 Was A Milestone
Jolie never expected to make it past the age of 40 for two reasons. The first is that cancer runs in her family. He mother, aunt, and grandmother all died of ovarian and breast cancer. Due to this, she opted to undergo a voluntary double mastectomy in 2013.
She also believed that her wild ways as a child would kill her. Looking back, she’s happy to be alive but never expected to survive substance abuse, mental illness, and a rocky home life.
Roles That Are Cooler Than Reality
Jolie has never hidden her wild past and she believes it continued on into her early days of Hollywood because of the roles she got. One of her first gigs was as model Gia Carangi in the biopic Gia. Jolie also famously played adventurist Lara Croft and hacker Kate Libby.
While her roles were fun and exciting, Jolie admits that she went through a period where she felt her “film characters were having more fun.”
She’s A Natural Blonde
It’s hard to believe that the beauty we know today is a natural blonde, but she was as cute as a button as a child. It was her mother’s choice to push Jolie to the dark side and dye her hair.
Jolie says that after her mother did it once, she’s kept it dark ever since. Her dark hair and appearance are what she entered the entertainment business with, and she doesn’t want to change that.
