Angelina Jolie made a striking appearance at the 2024 Tony Awards, revealing a new tattoo on her chest during the red carpet event. The actress, known for her role in Girl, Interrupted, was accompanied by her daughter Vivienne amidst ongoing family dynamics involving her ex-husband Brad Pitt.
Angelina, aged 49, looked ethereal in a custom light-teal Atelier Versace velvet gown, designed with a sweetheart neckline that showcased her latest sparrow-like tattoo. Traditionally, bird tattoos symbolize freedom, rebirth, and transformation, especially when depicted in flight.
The actress, who was last seen publicly in April with Vivienne, displayed the new tattoo which wasn't visible previously, indicating it was recently inked. Among her collection of tattoos is a traditional Thai backpiece for peace, love, and prosperity, Roman numerals, a quote from Tennessee Williams, and several others including a tiger on her lower back, and Buddhist prayers for warding off bad luck.
Angelina and Vivienne, aged 15, attended the event as nominees for producing the musical adaptation of The Outsiders. The production received accolades including Best Musical and Best Director for Danya Taymor.
During her onstage appearance, Angelina delivered a powerful speech, highlighting the relevance of The Outsiders in today's society and encouraging those who feel like outsiders to value their individual paths.
The actress's words resonate amid ongoing legal battles with Brad Pitt, with recent developments including daughter Shiloh petitioning to drop Pitt's last name upon turning 18. Angelina and Brad, who have six children together, continue to navigate their complex divorce proceedings.
