overview

As the daughter of a famous Hollywood star, Angelina is no stranger to celebrity.

She was born in the City of Angels on June 4th, 1975 to Jon Voight and Marcheline Bertrand and has gone on to do her parents proud — earning three Golden Globe Awards, two Screen Actors Guild Awards and an Academy Award (for 1999’s “Girl, Interrupted”).

Angelina is as untraditional in her personal life as she is in her choice of movie roles. She has starred in films across the spectrum, including her first grown-up role (in “Cyborg 2” in 1993), her first leading role (in the 1995 action movie “Hackers”), a critically acclaimed bio of George Wallace in 1997 and, of course, her signature blockbuster role as video game denizen Lara Croft in the “Tomb Raider” series.

She met current romantic partner Brad Pitt while shooting “Mr. & Mrs. Smith” in 2004. Angelina and Brad are the current couple du jour in Hollywood, with international attention constantly focused on both their personal lives, their family (the couple have 6 children together) and their humanitarian efforts.

From Hollywood princess to superstar, Angelina has captured our attention and our hearts.
