She was born on June 4th, 1975, in Los Angeles, in the family of actors. Her father is American and her mother was of French-Canadian origin. Her parents separated when she was little. Her father, Jon Voight, soon received an “Oscar”, while her mother had to take care of two children: Angelina and her brother James. She often watched movies with children and that awakened Angelina’s interest in acting.
Having great desire to act, she applied to the film school of Lee Strasberg. She studied there for two years. As a teenager she felt like an outsider. She had non-standard appearance, weird habits and second-hand clothes. She was rather thin, wore black clothes and dyed her hair red. Once she admitted that she did various drugs and led a reclusive life. She said she went through really hard times then and she is lucky to have survived them. At the age of 14, she became a model and she appeared in several music videos. Her first role didn’t bring her much popularity.
