Brad Pitt's daughter Shiloh, 19, debuts new moniker after dropping famous dad's last name

Brad Pitt's daughter Shiloh, 19, debuts new moniker after dropping famous dad's last name

News.com.au03-06-2025

Shiloh Jolie has entered a new era.
The daughter of Brad Pitt and Angelina Jolie, 19, appeared at the launch of Isabel Marant's capsule collection with Net-A-Porter Thursday in Los Angeles — and she dropped a new moniker for the occasion.
In a press release obtained by Page Six, Shiloh was credited as choreographer for an original dance number at the event — but she was listed as 'Shi Joli,' a moniker that pays homage to her famous mother while shortening her legal name.
The dance featured dancers Tako Suzuki and Keoni Rose and was accompanied by singer Luella's performance of Naïve.
The event, described as an 'intimate sunset dinner,' was held at Schindler's Oliver House in the Los Angeles enclave of Silver Lake.
A-listers including Milla Jovovich, Alison brie, January Jones, Rachel Bilson, and more were in attendance at the soiree.
Shiloh, who is frequently spotted heading to dance class in Los Angeles, famously requested to drop her father's last name on her 18th birthday in May 2024 — a change that was made official in August.
After a judge signed off on the ruling, Shiloh Nouvel Jolie-Pitt legally became Shiloh Nouvel Jolie.
She was said to have done the legwork on her own — without involving the Eternals actress.
'Shiloh hired her own lawyer and paid for it herself, so Angie doesn't know and can't speak for it,' a source told Entertainment Tonight at the time.
In a July statement to Page Six, Shiloh's lawyer Peter Levine said in part that the teen made 'an independent and significant decision following painful events' in dropping 'Pitt' from her last name.
Shiloh isn't the only of her famous siblings to have dropped the name following their parents' split and bitter divorce, which was finalised in December 2024 after an eight year battle.
When Zahara Jolie-Pitt, 20, declared herself at Alpha Kappa Alpha's sorority induction ceremony at Spelman College in 2023, she shouted, 'Zahara Marley Jolie' in video of the event that circulated via social media.
Amid the famous actors' custody dispute in 2021, a source claimed to Us Weekly that their oldest child, Maddox, 'doesn't use Pitt as his last name on documents that aren't legal and instead uses Jolie. Maddox wants to legally change his last name to Jolie, which Angelina has said she doesn't support.'
Pitt, 61, and Jolie, 49, who wed in 2014, welcomed Shiloh on May 27, 2006, and her twin siblings Knox and Vivienne on July 12, 2008.
Pitt officially adopted Jolie's adopted children Maddox, 23, and Zahara in 2005, and Pax, 21, in 2006.
The F1 actor was said to have been 'aware and upset' when Shiloh legally dropped his last name.
'He's never felt more joy than when she was born,' an insider told People in June 2024. 'He always wanted a daughter.'
'The reminders that he's lost his children is, of course, not easy for Brad,' they continued. 'He loves his children and misses them. It's very sad.'
In May, Pitt broke his silence on finalising the high-profile divorce from Angelina. When asked by GQ if he experienced 'relief,' he said, 'No, I don't think it was that major of a thing. Just something coming to fruition. Legally,' he told the outlet.

‘Disgusting': Kid's party debate erupts, divides the internet

A mum has sparked a heated debate online after sharing her frustration when her child was uninvited to a birthday party. Taking to TikTok, Sarah, known as 'momof_4our_', detailed the moment she discovered her son had been excluded – and the surprising way it all unfolded. In her video, Sarah explained that one of her children had been invited to a party, but she ended up replying to one of the parents a couple of weeks later to RSVP because she is 'crap at texting people.' She responded by thanking them for the invite and saying her child was 'really looking forward to coming.' However, they replied saying that the party had now been cancelled. But Sarah soon found out that the party wasn't cancelled and had still taken place. 'All of my child's friends were texting him saying why aren't you at the party, how come you're not here, we want to see blah blah blah,' she said. Sarah soon realised that the parent had 'lied' to her by claiming it was cancelled. Her frustration stems from the behaviour of the parents who, rather than addressing the missed RSVP directly, chose to lie about the party being cancelled. She added: 'Like why invite my child to a party if you're going to pretend it's not on anymore, I just don't understand.' Sarah explained that they all go to the same school and questioned what the parent thought was going to happen. She went on to say how upset her child had been, describing the situation as 'disgusting behaviour.' The video, which has gained over 180,000 views, has divided opinions online. While some sympathised with Sarah and criticised the other parent's behaviour, others argued that missing the RSVP deadline might have left the hosts feeling frustrated or overwhelmed. One viewer commented: 'Should have replied earlier, it's so annoying when parents don't text back for numbers and parents have to pay according to numbers. They probably meant your invite cancelled cos you didn't reply.' Sarah responded: 'She said the venue had been double booked and she would let me know when they find another venue, so clearly didn't mean that!' Another added: 'Just interested Sarah – When she texted it was cancelled did you reply with a 'thanks for letting me know, shame etc'? Wondering if you didn't respond & had done the response prior, late as admitted, could she have rebooked & thought you weren't too bothered. 'Just a thought but if you did reply to the cancellation text then my theory is nada!' A third said: 'You replied weeks later. Maybe they felt bad saying they can no longer come so just said it's cancelled.' However, others were firmly on Sarah's side. One viewer wrote: 'Vileeeeeee! I'd have turned up to the party.' Another added: 'I would have confronted the mother, that's not okay, poor children.'

Vin Diesel shows off his new physique as he poses for pictures with his celeb pals

Vin Diesel has been photographed looking noticeably less buff while posing with some of his celebrity pals. Diesel, best known for his role in the Fast and Furious franchise, flashed a smile as he hugged his former co-star, Charlize Theron while attending her Africa Outreach Project event in Los Angeles at the weekend. Wearing a black vest top and dark sunglasses, Diesel showed off a larger frame as he enjoyed the event with his famous pals. His latest public appearance comes after a fellow actor took a stab at Diesel during an interview earlier this year. Actor Paul Walter Hauser launched a surprising spray on Vin Diesel in a recent interview, recoiling when the interviewer jokingly compared him to the action star. Recent Golden Globe winner Hauser was sitting down with outlet CinemaBlend in a press junket for his latest film, Inside Out 2, in which he voices the character 'Embarrassment.' But he had no embarrassment hitting back when the interviewer joked to Hauser that his character's arc in the animated film means 'you're like Vin Diesel now.' 'Please don't say that,' he shot back, explaining: 'I like to think I am on time and approachable.' Hauser's Inside Out 2 co-star Lewis Black reacted with shock as he explained his surprise diss. 'I love people, but when I hear stories about Hollywood actors who get paid really well and mistreat people … I out them constantly, and it's a blast.' Meanwhile, on Saturday night, Diesel joined his Fast and Furious co-stars Tyrese Gibson and Cody Walker at Fuel Fest in California. During his brief appearance, Diesel told a crowd of fans what they can expect to see in the final Fast and Furious film. He also confirmed that it's likely to be released sometime in 2027 after numerous delays. 'The studio said to me, 'Vin, can we please have the finale of 'Fast and Furious' [in] April 2027?'' Diesel said. 'I said, 'Under three conditions.' First, is to bring the franchise back to L.A.! The second thing was to return to the car culture, to the street racing! The third thing was reuniting Dom and Brian O'Conner.'

Foreign Minister to push for full tariffs exemption on US trip

In this bulletin; Albanese says the government will continue to push for a full exemption from US tariffs; Two firefighters killed in a sniper attack in the US state of Idaho; And in Rugby, two star players announced for Maroons series decider against New South Wales. Prime Minister Anthony Albanese says the government will continue to push for a full exemption from US tariffs for Australia, as Foreign Affairs Minister Penny Wong heads to the US for talks. Senator Wong flies to Washington today for a meeting of Quad foreign ministers, which includes US Secretary of State Marco Rubio, along with her counterparts from India and Japan. The UK was able to strike a deal to ensure steel and aluminium exported to the US are subject to 25 per cent levies, rather than the 50 per cent tariff rate applied to the same goods from other US trading partners, including Australia. Mr Albanese says Senator Wong will make the case for the US to drop its tariffs on Australian exports entirely. "It shouldn't be 10 (per cent), it should be zero. That is what a reciprocal tariff will be. We have a US free trade agreement of course, and we've put forward our arguments very clearly. And we will continue to do so." US President Donald Trump says buyers have been found for social media platform TikTok, but says he won't reveal who they are for another few weeks. TikTok is owned by China-based company ByteDance and a federal law requiring that it be sold or banned was due to take effect the day before Mr Trump's inauguration. After extending the deadline for sale, Mr Trump told reporters he has a 'soft spot' for TikTok and has now, for a third time, extended the deadline again. He says while buyers are ready, he may need approval from China first. 'We have a buyer for TikTok, by the way. I think I'll need probably China approval. And I think President Xi will probably do it. (Who's buying it?) I'll tell you in about two weeks. (A big technology company?) Very, very wealthy people. It's a group of very wealthy people.' In May, Mr Trump said a group of purchasers was ready to pay ByteDance "a lot of money" for TikTok's US operations. Police have found the body of a man believed responsible for shooting dead two firefighters in the US state of Idaho. Kootenai County Sheriff Richard Norris says police believe the man was the only person involved in ambushing the firefighters with a rifle as they responded to a fire at Canfield Mountain, an area that is popular with hikers near the city of Coeur d'Alene. Governor Brad Little says multiple firefighters were attacked with a barrage of gunfire over several hours in what he called a "heinous" assault, prompting a shelter-in-place order for the area. Sheriff Norris says the full circumstances of the incident remain unclear. "Do not come to the area. Stay away from the area. This is going to be - if these individuals are not neutralised quickly, this is going to likely be a multi-day operation." US authorities have lifted the lockdown at the scene of the attack, after the body of a man suspected to be the shooter was found with a firearm nearby. The New South Wales State Emergency Service is warning east coast residents to prepare for damaging winds and heavy rain, as a rapidly developing pressure system builds off the coast. Almost 400 State Emergency Service volunteers along with high-clearance vehicles and aerial support have been pre-positioned along the coast, which is forecast to begin impacting parts of coastal areas of New South Whales between Coffs Harbour in the north and Bega in the south this evening. It will be an especially anxious wait for residents on the NSW mid-north coast, who are still recovering from record floods in May that claimed the lives of three people and damaged hundreds of properties. NSW SES deputy commissioner Debbie Platz says it's important to be ready for anything. "This weather will include damaging surf coastal erosion, significant moderate to heavy rainfall and thunderstorms along with damaging winds. As I said, this is a very dynamic and fast moving system. Very different to the systems that we have seen in recent times." Queensland coach Billy Slater has named Gehamat Shibasaki and Josh Papali'i as Maroons players for the series decider against New South Wales, to be played next Wednesday night in Sydney. It'll be Brisbane Broncos journeyman Shibasaki's Origin debut, and Papalii's first State of Origin match since 2022. Canberra Raiders star Papali'i retired from State of Origin before the 2023 season, after 23 matches and six series wins. Slater says bringing the veteran player back has been in the back of his mind for years. "He doesn't say a lot big papa, but his actions do the talking for him. And yeah, you're right. I've played alongside the big fella. I've coached the big fella, and I'm looking forward to seeing him again. He puts a smile on your face every time you talk to him on the phone."
